ARTICLE II
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
2.1 REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS OF THE COMPANY. The
Company hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the
Purchaser:
(a) ORGANIZATION AND QUALIFICATION. The Company is a corporation,
duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its incorporation, with the requisite corporate power and
authority to own and use its properties and assets and to carry on its business
as currently conducted. The Company has no subsidiaries other than as set forth
in SCHEDULE 2.1(a) attached hereto (collectively, the "SUBSIDIARIES"). Each of
the Subsidiaries is a corporation, duly incorporated, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, with the
full corporate power and authority to own and use its properties and assets and
to carry on its business as currently conducted. Each of the Company and the
Subsidiaries is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a
foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business
conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except
where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be,
could not, individually or in the aggregate, (x) adversely affect the legality,
validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Debentures, the Escrow
Agreement, the Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement, dated the date
hereof, among the Company and the Purchaser (the "REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT"
and, together with this Agreement, the Debentures and the Warrant, the
"TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS"), (y) have a material adverse effect on the results of
operations, assets, prospects, or condition (financial or otherwise) of the
Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (z) adversely impair the
Company's ability to perform fully on a timely basis its obligations under any
Transaction Document (any of the foregoing, a "MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT").
(b) AUTHORIZATION; ENFORCEMENT. The Company has the requisite
corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its
obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery of each of the Transaction
Documents 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. Each of the Transaction Documents has been duly executed
by
-2-
the Company and when delivered in accordance with the terms hereof shall
constitute the legal, 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. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of any of
the provisions of its respective certificate of incorporation, by-laws or other
charter documents.
(c) CAPITALIZATION. The authorized, issued and outstanding capital
stock of the Company is set forth in SCHEDULE 2.1(c). No shares of Common Stock
are entitled to preemptive or similar rights, nor is any holder of the Common
Stock entitled to preemptive or similar rights arising out of any agreement or
understanding with the Company by virtue of any of the Transaction Documents.
Except as disclosed in SCHEDULE 2.1(c), there are no outstanding options,
warrants, script rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character
whatsoever relating to, or, except as a result of the purchase and sale of the
Debentures and Warrant hereunder, securities, rights or obligations convertible
into or exchangeable for, or giving any person any right to subscribe for or
acquire any shares of Common Stock, or contracts, commitments, understandings,
or arrangements by which the Company or any Subsidiary is or may become bound to
issue additional shares of Common Stock, or securities or rights convertible or
exchangeable into shares of Common Stock. To the knowledge of the Company,
except as specifically disclosed in the Disclosure Materials (as defined below)
or SCHEDULE 2.1(c), no Person (as defined below) beneficially owns (as
determined pursuant to Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the "EXCHANGE ACT")) or has the right to acquire by
agreement with or by obligation binding upon the Company, beneficial ownership
of in excess of 5% of the Common Stock. A "PERSON" means an individual or
corporation, partnership, trust, incorporated or unincorporated association,
joint venture, limited liability company, joint stock company, government (or an
agency or subdivision thereof) or other entity of any kind.
(d) ISSUANCE OF DEBENTURES AND WARRANT. The Debentures and the
Warrant are duly authorized, and, when issued in accordance with the terms
hereof, shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of
all liens, encumbrances and rights of first refusals of any kind (collectively,
"LIENS"). The Company has and at all times while the Debentures and the Warrant
are outstanding will maintain an adequate reserve of duly authorized shares of
Common Stock to enable it to perform its conversion, exercise and other
obligations under this Agreement, the Warrant and the Debentures and in no
circumstances shall such reserved and available shares of Common Stock be less
than the sum of (i) 200% of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock as would be
issuable upon conversion in full of the Debentures, assuming such conversion
were effected on the Original Issue Date and (B) the number of shares of Common
Stock as are issuable as payment of interest on the Debentures, and (ii) the
number of shares of Common Stock as are issuable upon exercise in full of the
Warrant (the "INITIAL RESERVE"). If at any time the sum of the number of shares
of Common Stock issuable (a) upon conversion in full of the then outstanding
Debentures, (b) as the
-3-
payment of interest on the Debentures (assuming all such interest is to be paid
in Common Stock) and (c) upon exercise in full of the Warrant exceeds 85% of the
Initial Reserve, the Company shall duly reserve 200% of the number of shares of
Common Stock equal to such excess to fulfill such obligations. The obligation
shall similarly apply to successive excesses. The shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of the Debentures, as payment of interest in respect
thereof and upon exercise of the Warrant are sometimes referred to herein as the
"UNDERLYING SHARES," and the Debentures, Warrant and Underlying Shares are,
collectively, the "SECURITIES." When issued in accordance with the terms of the
Debentures and the Warrant, the Underlying Shares will be duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and free and clear of all Liens.
(e) NO CONFLICTS. The execution, delivery and performance of the
Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the
transactions contemplated thereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or
violate any provision of its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other
charter documents (each as amended through the date hereof) or (ii) subject to
obtaining the consents referred to in Section 2.1(f), conflict with, or
constitute a default (or an event which 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 of, any agreement, indenture or
instrument (evidencing a Company debt or otherwise) to which the Company is a
party or by which any property or asset of the Company is bound or affected, or
(iii) 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), as could not,
individually or in the aggregate, have or result in a Material Adverse Effect.
The business of the Company is not being conducted in violation of any law,
ordinance or regulation of any governmental authority, except for violations
which, individually and in the aggregate, could not have or result in a Material
Adverse Effect.
(f) CONSENTS AND APPROVALS. Except as specifically set forth in
SCHEDULE 2.1(f), neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is required to obtain
any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, or make any filing or
registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other
governmental authority or other Person in connection with the execution,
delivery and performance by the Company of the Transaction Documents other than
(i) the filing of a registration statement covering the resale of the Underlying
Shares by the Purchaser (the "UNDERLYING SECURITIES REGISTRATION STATEMENT")
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "COMMISSION"), (ii) the
application for the listing of the Underlying Shares on the OTC Bulletin Board
(and with any other national securities exchange, market or trading facility on
which the Common Stock is then listed), (iii) state blue sky laws, and (iv)
other than, in all other cases, where the failure to obtain such consent,
waiver, authorization or order, or to give or make such notice or filing, could
not have or result in, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse
Effect (together with the consents, waivers, authorizations, orders, notices and
filings referred to in SCHEDULE 2.1(f), the "REQUIRED APPROVALS").
-4-
(g) LITIGATION; PROCEEDINGS. Except as specifically disclosed in the
Disclosure Materials (as hereinafter defined), there is no action, suit, notice
of violation, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the best knowledge of
the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties before or by any court,
governmental or administrative agency or regulatory authority (federal, state,
county, local or foreign) which (i) adversely affects or challenges the
legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents or the
Securities or (ii) could, individually or in the aggregate, have or result in a
Material Adverse Effect.
(h) NO DEFAULT OR VIOLATION. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary
(i) is in default under or in violation of (or has received notice of a claim
that it is in default under or that it is in violation of) any indenture,
promissory note, loan or credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument
to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound, (ii) is
in violation of any order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body, or
(iii) is in violation of any statute, rule or regulation of any governmental
authority, except as could not individually or in the aggregate, have or result
in, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
(i) PRIVATE OFFERING. Subject in part to the truth and accuracy of
the Purchaser' representations set forth in Section 2.2, the offer, sale and
issuance of the Securities as contemplated by this Agreement are exempt for the
registration requirement of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"SECURITIES ACT"), and neither the Company nor any Person acting on its behalf
has taken or will take any action which might subject the offering, issuance or
sale of the Securities to the registration requirements of Section 5 of the
Securities Act.
(j) DISCLOSURE MATERIALS. The financial statements of the Company
dated December 31, 1996, July 31, 1997 and any other financial statements
delivered by the Company to the Purchaser (the "FINANCIAL STATEMENTS" and,
together with the Schedules to this Agreement and other documents and
information furnished by or on behalf of the Company at any time prior to the
Closing, the "DISCLOSURE MATERIALS") comply in all material respects with
applicable accounting requirements. Such Financial Statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on
a consistent basis during the periods involved, except as may be otherwise
specified in such Financial Statements or the notes thereto, and fairly present
in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of and for the
dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then
ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit
adjustments. There are no liabilities, contingent or otherwise, of the Company
involving material amounts not disclosed in said Financial Statements. The
Disclosure Materials do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in
order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading. Since July 31, 1997, there has been no event,
occurrence or development that has had or that could have or result in a
Material Adverse Effect.
-5-
(k) INVESTMENT COMPANY. The Company is not, and is not an "Affiliate
person" of, an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended.
(l) CERTAIN FEES. Except for fees payable to CDC Consulting, Inc.,
no fees or commissions will be payable by the Company to any broker, financial

transactions contemplated hereby. The Purchaser shall have no obligation with
respect to such fees or with respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other
Persons for fees of a type contemplated in this Section that may be due in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company shall
indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, its respective employees, officers,

attorney's fees) and expenses suffered in respect of any such claimed or
existing fees, as and when incurred.
(m) SOLICITATION MATERIALS. The Company has not (i) distributed any

(o) EXCLUSIVITY. The Company shall not issue and sell Debentures to
any Person other than the Purchaser.
(p) LISTING AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS COMPLIANCE. The Company has
not in the two years preceding the date hereof received written notice from any
stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the Common Stock is or has
been listed (or on which it has been quoted) to the effect that the Company is
not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such exchange,
market or trading facility. The Company has no reason to believe that it does
not now or will not in the future meet any such maintenance requirements.
(q) PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS. The Company has, or has rights to use,
all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications, service
marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and rights which are necessary for use
in connection with its business and which the failure to so have would have a
Material Adverse Effect (collectively, the "INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS"). To
the best knowledge of the Company, there is no existing infringement on any of
the Intellectual Property Rights.
-6-
(r) DISCLOSURE. All information relating to or concerning the
Company set forth in the Transaction Documents or provided to the Purchaser or

and does not fail to state any material fact necessary in order to make the
statements herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they

information that has specifically been identified to the recipient as material
non-public information in writing. The Company understands and confirms that
the Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing representation in effecting
transactions in securities of the Company.
(s) REGISTRATION RIGHTS. Except as provided in the Registration
Rights Agreement, the Company has not granted or agreed to grant any

2.2 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASER. The Purchaser hereby
makes the following representations and warranties to the Company.
(a) ORGANIZATION; AUTHORITY. The Purchaser is an entity organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
organization with the requisite power and authority to enter into and to
consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and to
carry out its obligations thereunder. The acquisition of the Securities to be
acquired hereunder by the Purchaser has been duly authorized by all necessary
action on the part of the Purchaser. Each of this Agreement, the Registration
Rights Agreement and the Escrow Agreement has been duly executed by the
Purchaser and, when delivered by the Purchaser in accordance with the terms
hereof and the Escrow Agreement constitutes the valid and legally binding
obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance with its
terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization,
moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting
creditors' rights generally and to general principles of equity.
(b) INVESTMENT INTENT. The Purchaser is acquiring the Securities for
its own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to or for
distributing or reselling such Securities or any part thereof or interest
therein, without prejudice, however, to the Purchaser's right, subject to the
provisions of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, at all times
to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Securities pursuant to
an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and in compliance
with applicable state securities laws or under an exemption from such
registration.
(c) PURCHASER STATUS. At the time the Purchaser was offered the
Securities, it was, at the date hereof, it is, and at the Closing Date, it will
be, an "accredited investor" as
-7-
defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act.
(d) EXPERIENCE OF PURCHASER. The Purchaser either alone or together
with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in
business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of the prospective investment in the Securities, and has so evaluated the
merits and risks of such investment.
(e) ABILITY OF PURCHASER TO BEAR RISK OF INVESTMENT. The Purchaser
acknowledges that an investment in the Securities is speculative and involves a
high degree of risk. The Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an
investment in the Securities to be acquired hereunder by the Purchaser, and, at
the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.
(f) ACCESS TO INFORMATION. The Purchaser acknowledges receipt of the
Disclosure Materials and further acknowledges that it 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 Securities, and the merits and risks of investing in the
Securities, (ii) access to information about the Company and the Company's
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 which 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 and to verify the
accuracy and completeness of the information contained in the Disclosure
Materials. Neither such inquiries nor any other investigation conducted by or
on behalf of the Purchaser or its representatives, agents or counsel shall
modify, amend or affect the Purchaser's right to rely on the truth, accuracy and
completeness of the Disclosure Materials and the Company's representations and
warranties contained in the Transaction Documents.
(g) RELIANCE. The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (i)
the Securities are being offered and sold to it without registration under the
Securities Act in a private placement that is exempt from the registration
provisions of the Securities Act and (ii) the availability of such exemption,
depends in part on, and the Company will rely upon the accuracy and truthfulness
of, the foregoing representations and the Purchaser hereby consents to such
reliance.
The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser makes no
representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby other than those specifically set forth in this Section 2.2.
ARTICLE III
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
-8-
3.1 TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS. (a) Securities may only be disposed of
pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, to the
Company or pursuant to an available exemption from or in a transaction not
subject to the registration requirements thereof. In connection with any
transfer of any Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration
statement or to the Company, 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 under
the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company hereby consents
to and agrees to register on the books and records of the Company or on the
register of any transfer agent for the Securities any transfer by the Purchaser
to an Affiliate (as such term is defined under Rule 405 promulgated under the
Securities Act) of the Purchaser or any transfers among any such Affiliates
provided the transferee certifies to the Company that it is an "accredited
investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and makes the
appropriate investment representations. Each such transferee shall have the
rights of the Purchaser under this Agreement and the Registration Rights
Agreement.
(b) The Purchaser agrees to the imprinting, so long as is required by
this Section 3.1(b), of the following legend on the Securities:
NEITHER THESE SECURITIES NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE
SECURITIES ARE [CONVERTIBLE] [EXERCISABLE] HAVE BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY
STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT
BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN
A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE
SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
[FOR DEBENTURES ONLY] THIS DEBENTURE IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON
CONVERSION SET FORTH IN SECTION 3.8 OF THE CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE PURCHASE
AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF APRIL 8, 1998, BETWEEN FIX-CORP INTERNATIONAL, INC.
(THE "COMPANY") AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER HEREOF. A COPY OF THAT AGREEMENT
IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY.
Underlying Shares shall not contain any legend if conversion of
Debentures, exercise of Warrant or other issuances of Underlying Shares, as the
case may be, occurs at any time while an Underlying Securities Registration
Statement is effective under the Securities Act
-9-
or, in the event there is not an effective Underlying Securities Registration
Statement at such time, if in the opinion of counsel to the Company such legend
is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including
judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the
Commission). The Company agrees that it will provide the Purchaser, upon
request, with a certificate or certificates representing Underlying Shares, free
from such legend at such time as such legend is no longer required hereunder.
The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to any
transfer agent of the Company which enlarge the restrictions of transfer set
forth in this Section 3.1(b).
3.2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF DILUTION. The Company acknowledges that the
issuance of Underlying Shares upon (i) conversion of the Debentures and as
payment of interest thereon, and (ii) exercise of the Warrant may result in
dilution of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, which dilution may be
substantial under certain market conditions. The Company further acknowledges
that its obligation to issue Underlying Shares in accordance with the terms of
the Debentures and the Warrant is unconditional and absolute regardless of the
effect of any such dilution.
3.3 FURNISHING OF INFORMATION. As long as the Purchaser owns Securities,
the Company covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof
and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by
the Company after the Filing Date (as defined in the Registration Rights
Agreement) pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. If at any
time prior to the date on which the Purchaser may resell all of its Underlying
Shares without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated under the
Securities Act (as determined by counsel to the Company pursuant to a written
opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company's
transfer agent for the benefit of and enforceable by the Purchaser) the Company
is not required to file reports pursuant to such sections, it will prepare and
furnish to the Purchaser and make publicly available in accordance with Rule
144(c) promulgated under the Securities Act annual and quarterly financial
statements, together with a discussion and analysis of such financial statements
in form and substance substantially similar to those that would otherwise be
required to be included in reports required by Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act in the time period that such filings would have been required to
have been made under the Exchange Act. The Company further covenants that it
will take such further action as any holder of Securities may reasonably
request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Person to
sell Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the
limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act, including the legal opinion referenced above in this Section.
Upon the request of any such Person, the Company shall deliver to such Person a
written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied
with such requirements.
3.4 USE OF DISCLOSURE MATERIALS. The Company consents to the use of the
Disclosure Materials and any information provided by or on behalf of the Company
pursuant to Section 3.3, and any amendments and supplements thereto, by the
Purchaser in connection
-10-
with resales of the Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration
statement; PROVIDED, THAT the Company shall have a reasonable opportunity to
update such information.
3.5 BLUE SKY LAWS. In accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement,
the Company shall qualify the Underlying Shares under the securities or Blue Sky
laws of such jurisdictions as the Purchaser may request and shall continue such
qualification at all times during the Effectiveness Period (as defined in the
Registration Rights Agreement); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that neither the Company nor
its Subsidiaries shall be required in connection therewith to qualify as a
foreign corporation where they are not now so qualified or to take any action
that would subject the Company to general service of process in any such
jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.
3.6 INTEGRATION. The Company shall not and shall use its best efforts to
ensure that no Affiliate shall sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or
otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the
Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the
Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities
Act of the issue or sale of the Securities to the Purchaser.
3.7 INCREASE IN AUTHORIZED SHARES. At such time as the Company would be,
if a notice of conversion or exercise (as the case may be) were to be delivered
on such date, precluded from (a) converting the full outstanding principal
amount of Debentures (and paying any accrued but unpaid interest in respect
thereof in shares of Common Stock) that remain unconverted at such date or (b)
honoring the exercise in full of the Warrant due to the unavailability of a
sufficient number of shares of authorized but unissued or re-acquired Common
Stock, the Board of Directors of the Company shall promptly (and in any case
within 30 Business Days from such date) prepare and mail to the shareholders of
the Company proxy materials requesting authorization to amend the Company's
restated certificate of incorporation to increase the number of shares of Common
Stock which the Company is authorized to issue to at least a number of shares
equal to the sum of (i) all shares of Common Stock then outstanding, (ii) the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable on account of all outstanding
warrants, options and convertible securities (other than the Debentures and the
Warrant) and on account of all shares reserved under any stock option, stock
purchase, warrant or similar plan, (iii) 200% of the number of Underlying Shares
as would then be issuable upon a conversion in full of the then outstanding
Debentures and as payment of all future interest thereon in shares of common
Stock in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Debentures and (iv)
such number of Underlying Shares as would then be issuable upon the exercise in
full of the warrants. In connection therewith, the Board of Directors shall (x)
adopt proper resolutions authorizing such increase, (y) recommend to and
otherwise use its best efforts to promptly and duly obtain stockholder approval
to carry out such resolutions (and hold a special meeting of the shareholders no
later than the 60th day after delivery of the proxy materials relating to such
meeting) and (z) within 5 Business Days of obtaining such shareholder
authorization, file an appropriate amendment to the Company's certificate of
incorporation to evidence such increase.
-11-
3.8 PURCHASER OWNERSHIP OF COMMON STOCK. In no event shall the Purchaser
be permitted to use its ability to convert Debentures or exercise its Warrant to
the extent that such conversion or exercise would result in the Purchaser
beneficially owning (for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act and the
rules thereunder) in excess of 4.999% of the then issued and outstanding shares
of Common Stock, including shares issuable upon conversion of the Debentures
held by the Purchaser after application of this Section. To the extent that the
limitation contained in this Section applies, the determination of whether
Debentures are convertible (in relation to other securities owned by the
Purchaser) and of which Debentures are convertible shall be in the sole
discretion of the Purchaser, and the submission of Debentures for conversion
shall be deemed to be the Purchaser's determination of whether such Debentures
are convertible (in relation to other securities owned by the Purchaser) and of
which Debentures are convertible, in each case subject to such aggregate
percentage limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or
confirm the accuracy of such determination. Nothing contained herein shall be
deemed to restrict the right of the Purchaser to convert Debentures at such time
as such conversion will not violate the provisions of this Section.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if ten days have
elapsed since the Purchaser has declared an event of default under any
Transaction Document and such event shall not have been cured to the Purchaser's
satisfaction prior to the expiration of such ten-day period, the provisions of
this Section 3.8 shall be null and void AB INITIO.
3.9 LISTING OF UNDERLYING SHARES. If the Common Stock hereafter is listed
for trading on the Nasdaq National Market, Nasdaq SmallCap Market (or on the
American Stock Exchange or New York Stock Exchange, or any other national
securities market or exchange), then the Company shall (1) take all necessary
steps to list the Underlying Shares thereon, including the preparation of any
required additional listing application therefor covering at least the sum of
two times the number of Underlying Shares as would be issuable upon a conversion
in full of the then outstanding principal amount of Debentures (plus all
Underlying Shares issuable as payment of interest thereon, assuming all such
interest were paid in shares of Common Stock) and upon exercise in full of the
then unexercised portion of the Warrant, and (2) provide to the Purchaser
evidence of such listing, and the Company shall thereafter maintain the listing
of its Common Stock on such exchange or market as long as Underlying Shares are
issuable and/or outstanding. The Company will use its commercially reasonable
efforts to list the Common Stock for trading on either the Nasdaq SmallCap
Market or Nasdaq National Market as soon as possible after the Closing Date.
3.10 CONVERSION PROCEDURES. EXHIBIT E sets forth the procedures with
respect to the conversion of the Debentures, including the form of legal
opinion, if necessary, that shall be rendered to the Company's transfer agent
and such other information and instructions as may be reasonably necessary to
enable the Purchaser to exercise its right of conversion smoothly and
expeditiously which are not set forth in the Debentures.
3.11 PURCHASER' RIGHTS IF TRADING IN COMMON STOCK IS SUSPENDED OR DELISTED.
If at
-12-
any time while the Purchaser (or any assignee thereof) owns any Securities,
trading in the shares of the Common Stock is suspended on or delisted from the
OTC Bulletin Board or any other principal market or exchange for such shares
(other than as a result of the suspension of trading in securities on such
market or exchange generally, or temporary suspensions pending the release of
material information) for more than three (3) Trading Days, then,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Transaction Document,
at the Purchaser's option exercisable by ten Business Days prior written notice
to the Company, the Company shall, PROVIDED, THAT trading has not been
reinstated within such period, repay the entire principal amount of then
outstanding Debentures and redeem all then outstanding Underlying Shares then
held by the Purchaser, at an aggregate purchase price equal to the sum of
(I) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Debentures then held by the
Purchaser divided by the Conversion Price on (a) the day prior to the date of
such suspension or delisting, (b) the day of such notice or (c) the date of
payment in full of the repurchase price calculated under this Section, whichever
is less, and multiplied by the Market Price preceding (x) the day prior to the
date of such suspension or delisting, (y) the day of such notice and (z) the
date of payment in full of the repurchase price calculated under this Section,
whichever is greater, (II) the aggregate of all accrued but unpaid interest and
other non-principal amounts (including liquidated damages, if any) then payable
in respect of all Debentures to be repaid, (III) the number of Underlying Shares
then held by the Purchaser multiplied by the Market Price immediately preceding
(x) the day prior to the date of such suspension or delisting, (y) the date of
the notice or (z) the date of payment in full by the Company of the repurchase
price calculated under this Section, whichever is greater, and (IV) interest on
the amounts set forth in I - III above accruing from the 10th Business Day after
such notice until the repurchase price under this Section is paid in full at the
rate of 18% per annum. If after the Original Issue Date the Common Stock shall
be listed for trading or quoted on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, Nasdaq National
Market or any other national securities exchange or market, this provision shall
similarly apply to any delistings or suspensions therefrom.
3.12 USE OF PROCEEDS. The Company shall use all of the proceeds from the
sale of the Securities for working capital purposes and not for the satisfaction
of any portion of Company debt or to redeem Company equity or equity-equivalent
securities. Pending application of the proceeds of this placement in the manner
permitted hereby the Company will invest such proceeds in money market funds,
interest bearing accounts and/or short-term, investment grade interest bearing
securities.
3.13 NOTICE OF BREACHES. The Company and the Purchaser shall give prompt
written notice to the other of any breach by it of any representation, warranty
or other agreement contained in any Transaction Document, as well as any events
or occurrences arising after the date hereof, which would reasonably be likely
to cause any representation or warranty or other agreement of such party, as the
case may be, contained in the Transaction Document to be incorrect or breached
as of such Closing Date. However, no disclosure by either party pursuant to
this Section shall be deemed to cure any breach of any representation, warranty
or other agreement contained in any Transaction Document.
-13-
Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall promptly
notify the Purchaser of any notice or claim (written or oral) that it receives
from any lender of the Company to the effect that the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents violates or would violate
any written agreement or understanding between such lender and the Company, and
the Company shall promptly furnish by facsimile to the holders of the Debentures
a copy of any written statement in support of or relating to such claim or
notice.
3.14 CONVERSION OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. The Company shall honor
conversions of the Debentures and exercises of the Warrant and shall deliver
Underlying Shares in accordance with the respective terms and conditions and
time periods set forth in the Debentures and the Warrant.
3.15 RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL; SUBSEQUENT REGISTRATIONS; CERTAIN CORPORATE
ACTIONS. (a) The Company shall not, directly or indirectly, without the prior
written consent of the Encore Capital Management, L.L.C. ("Encore") on behalf of
the Purchaser, offer, sell, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise dispose
(or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other
disposition) of any of its or its Affiliates equity, equity-equivalent or
derivative securities (a "SUBSEQUENT FINANCING") for a period of 180 days after
the Closing Date, except (i) the granting of options or warrants to employees,
officers and directors, and the issuance of shares upon exercise of options
granted, under any stock option plan heretofore or hereinafter duly adopted by
the Company, (ii) shares issued upon exercise of any currently outstanding
warrants and upon conversion of any currently outstanding convertible preferred
stock in each case disclosed in SCHEDULE 2.1(c), and (iii) shares of Common
Stock issued upon conversion of the Debentures, as payment of interest thereon,
or upon exercise of the Warrant in accordance with their respective terms,
unless (A) the Company delivers to Encore a written notice (the "SUBSEQUENT
FINANCING NOTICE") of its intention to effect such Subsequent Financing, which
Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed
terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of proceeds intended to be raised
thereunder, the Person with whom such Subsequent Financing shall be affected,
and a term sheet or similar document relating thereto shall be attached to such
Subsequent Financing Notice and (B) Encore shall not have notified the Company
by 5:00 p.m. (New York City Time) on the tenth (10th) Trading Day after its
receipt of the Subsequent Financing Notice of its willingness to cause the
Purchaser to provide (or to cause its sole designee to provide), subject to
completion of mutually acceptable documentation, financing to the Company on
substantially the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice. If Encore
shall fail to notify the Company of its intention to enter into such
negotiations within such time period, the Company may effect the Subsequent
Financing substantially upon the terms and to the Persons (or Affiliates of such
Persons) set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice; PROVIDED, that the
Company shall provide Encore with a second Subsequent Financing Notice, and
Encore shall again have the right of first refusal set forth above in this
paragraph (a), if the Subsequent Financing subject to the initial Subsequent
Financing Notice shall not have been consummated for any reason on
-14-
the terms set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice within thirty (30)
Trading Days after the date of the initial Subsequent Financing Notice with the
Person (or an Affiliate of such Person) identified in the Subsequent Financing
Notice.
(b) Except for Underlying Shares and other "Registrable Securities"
(as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) to be registered
in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, securities to be
registered pursuant to Schedule 6(c) to the Registration Rights Agreement, and
other than Company securities to be registered for resale in connection with
financings permitted pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) through (iii) of this Section,
the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Encore, (i) issue or
sell any of its or any of its Affiliates' equity or equity-equivalent securities
pursuant to Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act, or (ii) register
for resale any securities of the Company for a period of not less than 90
Trading Days after the date that the Underlying Securities Registration
Statement is declared effective by the Commission. Any days that the Purchaser
is not permitted to sell Underlying Shares under the Underlying Securities
Registration Statement shall be added to such 90 Trading Day period for the
purposes of (i) and (ii) above.
(c) As long as there are Debentures outstanding, the Company
shall not and shall cause the Subsidiaries not to, without the consent of the
holders of the Debentures, (i) amend its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or
other charter documents so as to adversely affect any rights of the holders of
Debentures; (ii) repay, repurchase or offer to repay, repurchase or otherwise
acquire shares of its Common Stock other than as to the Underlying Shares; or
(iii) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.
3.16 THE WARRANT. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall issue and
deliver to the Escrow Agent for delivery at the closing a Common Stock purchase
warrant, in the form of EXHIBIT D and registered in the name of the Purchaser
(the "WARRANT"), pursuant to which the Purchaser shall have the right at any
time and from time to time thereafter through the third anniversary of the date
of issuance thereof, to acquire 192,542 shares of Common Stock at an exercise
price per share equal to $4.22.
3.17 TRANSFER OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. Except in connection with
the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the Company
shall not transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of, any Intellectual Property
Rights, or allow the Intellectual Property Rights to become subject to any
Liens, or fail to renew such Intellectual Property Rights (if renewable and
would otherwise expire), without the prior written consent of the Purchaser.
3.18 FORM SB-2. The Company has filed with the Commission on January 20,
1998 a registration statement on Form SB-2 (the "FORM SB-2") pursuant to the
Exchange Act. The Company shall use its best efforts to amend the Form SB-2 in
order to include the resale of the Underlying Securities thereunder as soon as
possible but in no event later than the 20th day after the Closing Date and
shall take all commercially reasonable steps necessary to cause such
-15-
Form SB-2 to be declared effective as soon as possible thereafter but in no
event later than the 50th day after the Closing Date, and shall provide to the
Purchaser evidence of such filing and effectiveness.

by the party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver
of any default with respect to any provision,
-17-
condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing
waiver in the future or a waiver of any other provision, condition or
requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise
any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right accruing
to it thereafter.
4.5 HEADINGS. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not
constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect
any of the provisions hereof.
4.6 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be binding upon and

covenants contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing and the and
conversion of the Debentures and exercise of the Warrant.
4.10 EXECUTION. This Agreement may be executed in two or more

each party and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all
parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is
delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid and
binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is
executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature
page were an original thereof.

such disclosure is required by law, in which such case the disclosing party
shall provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement.
4.12 SEVERABILITY. In case any one or more of the provisions of this
Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and
enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not
in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree
upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a reasonable substitute
therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in
