The Subsidiary is a corporation, duly incorporated, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of the State of Florida, 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 Subsidiary 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 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 Subsidiary,
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").
(ii) Authorization; Enforcement. The Company has the requisite
corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate the

authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Company. Each of
the Transaction Documents has been duly executed by 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 articles of incorporation, certificate of incorporation,
by-laws or other charter documents.
(iii) Capitalization. The authorized, issued and outstanding
capital stock of the Company consists of 50,000,000 shares of Common

preferred stock are outstanding. At the Company's annual meeting held

understanding with the Company by virtue of any of the Transaction

to enable it to perform its conversion, exercise and other obligations
under this Agreement and the Notes. When issued in accordance with the

OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

(i) 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 (i) any transfer of Securities by one Purchaser to
another Purchaser, and agrees that no documentation other than executed
transfer documents shall be required for any such transfer, and (ii)
any transfer by any Purchaser to an Affiliate (as such term is defined
under Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) of such Purchaser
or to an Affiliate of another Purchaser, or any transfers among any
such Affiliates. Any such Purchaser or Affiliate transferee shall have
the rights of a Purchaser under this Agreement and the Note.

Securities:
NEITHER THESE SECURITIES NOR THE SECURITIES INTO

WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES
COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM

Underlying Shares shall not contain the legend set forth above
if the conversion of Notes or other issuances of Underlying Shares, as
the case may be, occurs at any time while a registration statement is
effective under the Securities Act or, in the event there is not an
effective 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 each 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).
(b) Acknowledgment of Dilution. The Company acknowledges that the
issuance of, Underlying Shares upon conversion of the Notes may result in
dilution of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Company further
acknowledges that its obligation to issue Underlying Shares in accordance with
the Notes is unconditional and absolute regardless of the effect of any such
dilution.
(c) Furnishing of Information. As long as the Purchasers own
Securities, the Company covenants to timely file all reports required to be
filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of
the Exchange Act. If at any time prior to the date on which the Purchasers may
resell all of their 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 Purchasers) the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to such
sections, it will prepare and furnish to the Purchasers 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.
(d) 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 converting the full outstanding principal
amount of Notes that remain unconverted at such date 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 45 Business Days from such date) prepare and mail to the
shareholders of the Company proxy materials requesting authorization to amend
the Company's 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 Notes) and on
account of all shares reserved under any stock option, stock purchase, warrant
or similar plan, and (iii) 100% of the number of Underlying Shares as would then
be issuable upon a conversion in full of the then outstanding Notes. In
connection therewith, the Board of
PURCHASE AGREEMENT
- 10 -

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

materials relating to such meeting) and (z) within 5 Business Days of obtaining

contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing and the conversion of the
Notes.
(j) Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more

same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by
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.
(k) Publicity. The Company and the Purchasers shall consult with each
other in issuing any press releases or otherwise making public statements with
respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and no party shall issue any
such press release or otherwise make any such public statement without the prior

party with prior notice of such public statement. In no event will any party
publicly or otherwise disclose the name of any Purchaser without such
Purchaser's prior written consent.
(l) 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
this Agreement.
(m) Remedies. Each of the parties to this Agreement acknowledges and
agrees that the other parties would be damaged irreparably in the event any of
the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their
specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, each of the parties
hereto agrees that the other parties shall be entitled to an injunction or
injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to
enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions of this
Agreement in any action instituted in any court of the United States of America
or any state thereof having jurisdiction over the parties to this Agreement and
the matter, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled, at
law or in equity.

Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized persons as of the

SUBORDINATED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
February ___, 2000 $____________
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Collegiate Pacific Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), hereby promises to pay to the order of
____________________ ("Holder"), the principal amount of _____________
($________) in lawful money of the United States of America, together with
interest on the outstanding portion thereof for the period such sums are unpaid,
all in accordance with the provisions of this Note.
1. Payment of Principal and Interest.
(a) The outstanding principal amount of this Note is due and
payable in a single installment on January 31, 2005 (the "Maturity
Date").
(b) Interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of the
actual number of days elapsed based on a 365 or 366 day year, as the
case may be.
(c) Interest will accrue at a variable rate per annum equal to
the Prime Rate (hereinafter defined) plus two and one-half (2 1/2)
percentage points, payable monthly on the tenth (10th) day of each
calendar month, commencing April 10, 2000 and continuing regularly
thereafter on the tenth (10th) day of each succeeding month and on the
Maturity Date. The Prime Rate will be determined on the date hereof for
the period from the date hereof until April 1, 2000. Thereafter, the
Prime Rate will be determined on the last Business Day (hereinafter
defined) of March 2000 for the calendar quarter from April 1, 2000 to
July 1, 2000 and on the last Business Day of every June, September,
December and March thereafter until the Maturity Date for each of the
respective following calendar quarters.
(i) "Prime Rate" means the "prime rate" published
from time to time in the Money Rates column of The Wall Street
Journal (Central Edition); provided, however, if the Money
Rates column
21
of The Wall Street Journal (Central Edition) ceases to be
published or otherwise does not designate a "prime rate" as of
any Business Day, "Prime Rate" shall mean the rate of interest
per annum publicly announced by The Chase Manhattan Bank as
its prime rate in effect at its principal office in New York
City; in each case each change in such rate shall be effective
from and including the Business Day such change is published
or announced, as the case may be.
(ii) "Business Day" means any day that is not a
Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks in New
York City, New York or Dallas, Texas are authorized or
required by law to remain closed. If the last or appointed day
for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right
required or granted in this Warrant is not a Business Day,
then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised
on the following Business Day.
(d) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in
this Note, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total liability
of the Company hereunder for payments in the nature of interest shall
not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under the laws of the
State of Texas or such greater rate as may be authorized by other
governmental authority applicable to the indebtedness evidenced hereby
(the "Maximum Rate"), and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event
shall the rate of interest when aggregated with any other sums in the
nature of interest which the Company may be obligated to pay hereunder
exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum contract
rate of interest allowed by law and applicable to this Note is
increased or decreased by statute or any official action of the State
of Texas or the United States of America subsequent to the date hereof,
the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the
Maximum Rate of interest applicable to this Note from the effective
date forward, unless such application is precluded by applicable
statute, official action, or rule of law. If under any circumstances
whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid to Holder by
the Company in connection with the indebtedness evidenced by this Note,
such excess shall be applied by Holder to the unpaid principal balance
of this Note or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling such
excess to be at Holder's election.
2. Prepayment. Subject to the prior written approval of Senior Creditor
(as defined in Section 8 of this Note), this Note may be prepaid in whole or in
part, at any time after the second anniversary hereof without penalty or premium
but with interest accrued on the amount being prepaid to the date of prepayment;
provided that Holder shall be entitled to ten (10) Business Days' notice prior
to any prepayment of principal or interest hereunder, and upon receipt of such
notice Holder may elect to convert the Note into the Company's Common Stock,
$.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock") pursuant to the following section
in lieu of receiving such payment. Any payments made to Holder by the Company
hereunder will be applied first to accrued but unpaid interest and then to
principal.
3. Conversion.
(a) Holder shall have the right at any time, at Holder's
option, to convert all or any part of the outstanding principal amount
of, and accrued but unpaid interest on, this Note into shares of Common
Stock at a conversion price equal to $3.30 per share. Holder may
exercise its conversion right hereunder by delivering written notice of
conversion ("Underlying Shares"), together with this original Note, to
the Company, in which case Holder will be deemed for all purposes to be
Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such
conversion as specified in such notice of conversion, and Holder will
be deemed for all purposes to be Holder of a replacement Note on terms
identical to the terms hereof, in the principal amount of that portion
of this Note not converted in such conversion, if any. As soon as
practicable
22
after receipt of notice of conversion and this Note, the Company will
issue a certificate evidencing the number of shares of Common Stock
into which this Note or a portion of this Note has been converted and a
replacement Note evidencing the remaining principal balance of the Note
outstanding, if any.
(b) The Company will not issue fractional shares upon any
conversion of this Note into shares of Common Stock. In lieu of any
such fractional shares, if Holder would otherwise be entitled to a
fraction of a share of Common Stock upon conversion, it will be
entitled to receive a cash payment (without interest) determined by
multiplying:
(i) The fractional interest to which Holder would
otherwise be entitled; and
(ii) $3.30.
4. Adjustments to Conversion Shares.
(a) If, at any time after the date hereof and before the
conversion of this Note, the Company effects a split, subdivision or
combination of the Common Stock or makes or issues, or fixes a record
date for the determination of holders of its Common Stock entitled to
receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the
Company, then Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon conversion
hereof, the number of shares of Common Stock and other securities that
it would have received had it converted this Note immediately prior to
such event and had thereafter, during the period from the date of such
event to and including the conversion date, retained such shares,
giving application to all adjustments called for during such period
under this Section 4.
(b) If, at any time after the date hereof and before the
conversion of this Note, there is any reclassification of the Company's
securities or any reorganization of the Company or any combination,
merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another person, or
any sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to any
other person, then, as a part of such event, provision shall be made so
that Holder is thereafter entitled to receive, upon conversion of this
Note, the number of shares or other securities or property to which a
holder of shares issuable upon conversion immediately prior to such
event would have been entitled on such event. In any such case,
appropriate adjustment shall be made so that the rights of Holder
before and after such event are as nearly equivalent as possible.
5. Certain Legal Restrictions.
(a) The Company shall not be obligated to sell or issue any
shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note or otherwise
unless the issuance and delivery of such shares shall comply with all
relevant provisions of law and other legal requirements including,
without limitation, any applicable federal or state securities laws and
the requirements of any stock exchange upon which shares of the Common
Stock may then be listed. As a condition to the conversion of this Note
or the sale by the Company of any additional shares of Common Stock to
Holder, the Company may require Holder to make such representations and
warranties as may be necessary to assure the availability of an
exemption from the registration requirements of applicable federal or
state securities laws. The Company shall not be liable for refusing to
sell or issue any shares if the Company cannot obtain authority from
the appropriate regulatory bodies deemed by the Company to be necessary
to lawfully sell or issue such shares. In addition, the Company shall
have no obligation to Holder, express or implied, to list, register or
otherwise qualify any of
23
Holder's shares of Common Stock. The shares of Common Stock issued upon
the conversion of this Note may not be transferred except in accordance
with applicable federal or state securities laws. At the Company's
option, the certificate evidencing shares of Common Stock issued to
Holder may be legended as follows:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED

a register in which the Company shall provide for the registration of
this Note and for the registration of transfer of this Note. Every Note
presented or surrendered for registration or transfer shall be duly

require Holder to make such representations and warranties as may be
necessary to assure the availability of an exemption from the
registration requirements of applicable federal or state securities
laws.

cancellation of this Note, the Company will make and deliver, in lieu of such
lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note, a new Note of like tenor and
principal amount and dated as of the date to which interest has been paid on the
lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note. Every Note so made and delivered in
replacement for this Note shall in all other respects be in the same form and
have the same terms as this Note.

10. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Holder may,
at its option, declare the entire unpaid balance of principal and accrued
interest (if any) on this Note to be immediately due and payable; provided,
however, upon the occurrence of any of the Events of Default described in
Section 9(b) or (c) above, the entire

action by Holder, immediately become due and payable without demand for payment,
presentment, protest, notice of protest and nonpayment, or other notice of
default, notice of acceleration and intention to accelerate or any other notice,
all of which are expressly waived by the Company. Upon the occurrence of any

13. Choice of Law. The interpretation, performance and enforcement of
this Note shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas, as applicable,

14. Registration Rights.
(a) Optional Registrations.
(i) If the Company decides to register any of its
Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable
for Common Stock under the Securities Act on a form which is
suitable for an offering for cash of shares of the Company
held by third parties and which is not a registration solely
to implement an employee benefit plan or a transaction to
which Rule ▇▇▇, ▇-▇ or any other similar rule of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") is
applicable, the Company will promptly give written notice to
the Holder, and the Company will use all reasonable efforts to
effect the registration under the Securities Act of all
Underlying Shares that the Holder requests be included in such
registration by a written notice delivered to the Company
within fifteen (15) days after the notice given by the
Company. The Holder agrees that any securities it requests to
be included in a the Company registration pursuant to this
Section 14(a) shall be included by the Company on the same
form of registration statement as has been selected by the
Company for the securities the Company is registering for sale
for its own account.
(ii) If the registration involves an underwritten
public offering, the Company will not be required to register
Underlying Shares in excess of the amount that the principal
underwriter reasonably and in good faith recommends may be
included in such offering (a "Cutback"), which recommendation,
and supporting reasoning, shall be delivered in writing to the
Holder. If such a Cutback occurs, the number of shares that
are entitled to be included in the registration and
underwriting shall first be allocated to the Company for
securities being sold for its own account and thereafter shall
be allocated to the Holder requesting inclusion in the
registration.
(iii) If the Company elects to terminate any
registration filed under this Section 14(a), the Company will
have no obligation to register the securities sought to be
included by the Holder in
26
such registration. If the Company includes in such
registration any securities to be offered by it, all expenses
of the registration and offering and the reasonable fees and
expenses of not more than one independent counsel for the
Holder will be borne by the Company, except that the Holder
will bear underwriting discounts and commissions attributable
to its Underlying Shares being registered and transfer taxes
on shares being sold by it.
(b) Required Registrations.
(a) Subject to the limitations on registration set
forth in Section 14(e) below, if the Holder notifies the
Company in writing that the Holder intends to offer for public
sale any Underlying Shares, the Company will cause the
Underlying Shares as may be requested by the Holder to be
included in a registration statement under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). In connection with
one (1) registration made by the Company pursuant to this
Section 14(b), all expenses of such registration and the
reasonable fees and expenses of not more than one independent
counsel for the Holder will be borne by the Company, except
that the Holder will bear underwriting discounts and
commissions and transfer taxes on shares being sold by the
Holder. The Company shall not be required to file any
registration statement for securities other than shares of
Common Stock, although any conversion of this Note may be
conditioned upon such registration statement becoming
effective, to the extent that the conversion relates to
Underlying Shares covered by the Holder's written notice of an
intended public offering. In connection with all other
registrations made by the Company pursuant to this Section
14(b), all expenses of any such registrations (other than
audit and "blue sky" fees and expenses, which fees and
expenses will be borne by the Company) shall be borne by the
Holder; provided, however, that if the Company for its own
account or any other holder of shares elects to register its
shares under this Section 14(b) as permitted below, the
expenses of such registration shall be borne pro rata by all
parties to the registration based upon the ratio that the
number of such shares being registered by such entity bears to
the total number of shares to be registered pursuant to this
Section 14(b). Except as provided in Section 14(c), this
Section 14(b) will not apply to a request for registration on
Form S-3 (or successor form) which will be governed by Section
14(c). In the event any registration attempted under this
Section 14(b) pursuant to which the Company would be
responsible for the above expenses of the Holder is not
consummated, then the Company shall pay such expenses and
shall remain responsible for the above expenses of the Holder
with respect to one (1) consummated registration under this
Section 14(b).
(c) The registration statement filed pursuant to the request
of the Holder may include other securities of the Company, with respect
to which "piggyback" registration rights have been granted, and may
include securities of the Company being sold for the account of the
Company; provided, however, that if the Company shall request inclusion
in any registration pursuant to this Section 14(b) of the securities
being sold for its own account, or if other persons shall request
inclusion in any registration pursuant to this Section 14(b), the
Holder shall, on behalf of all entities requesting inclusion in such
registration, offer to include such securities in the offering and may
condition such offer on their acceptance of any other reasonable
conditions (including, without limitation, if such offering is
underwritten, that such requesting holders agree in writing to enter
into an underwriting agreement with usual and customary terms).
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 14(b), if the
representative of the underwriters advises the Holder in writing that
marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be
underwritten, the number of shares to be included in the underwriting
or registration shall be allocated first to the Holder,
27
second to the Company and thereafter to the holders requesting
inclusion in the registration on the basis of the number of shares each
requesting holder requests be included bears to the total number of
shares of all requesting holders that have been requested be included
in such registration. If a person who has requested inclusion in such
registration as provided above does not agree to the terms of any such
underwriting, such person shall be excluded therefrom by written notice
from the Company, the underwriter or the Holder. The securities so
excluded shall also be withdrawn from registration.
(d) Form S-3.
(i) Once the Company is eligible to effect a
registration of its securities under Form S-3 (or a successor
form), the Holder will have the right to request and have
effected registrations of shares of its Underlying Shares on
Form S-3 as long as the aggregate proposed offering price is
not less than $1,000,000 for any such registration.
(ii) Upon written request of the Holder, the Company
will cause the registration of all Underlying Shares on Form
S-3 or such successor form to the extent requested by the
Holder. All expenses incurred in connection with such
registration requested pursuant to this Section 14(c) shall be
borne by the Holder; provided, however, that if the Company
for its own account or any other holder of shares elects to
register its shares as permitted below, the expenses of such
registration shall be borne pro rata by all parties to the
registration based upon the ratio that the number of such
shares registered by such entity bears to the total number of
shares to be registered; provided, further, however, that if
the Holder elects to treat this request as a required
registration pursuant to Section 14(b) above, then the
Company, if requested by the Holder, will bear all such
expenses as provided in such Section to the extent that it
would be required to pursuant to said Section.
(iii) The registration statement filed pursuant to
the request of the Holder may include other securities of the
Company, with respect to which "piggyback" registration rights
have been granted, and may include securities of the Company
being sold for the account of the Company; provided, however,
that any Cutback shall be dealt with in the same manner as the
second paragraph of Section 8(b).
(e) Procedure for Registration. Whenever the Company is
required under Section 14 to register Common Stock, it agrees to the
following:
(i) Use all reasonable efforts to prepare promptly
for filing with the Commission a registration statement and
such amendments and supplements to said registration statement
and the prospectus as may be necessary to keep the
registration statement effective and to comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act for the period necessary to
complete the proposed public offering, but not more than 180
days;
(ii) Furnish to each selling holder such copies of
each preliminary and final prospectus and such other documents
as such holder may reasonably request to facilitate the public
offering of its Common Stock;
(iii) Enter into any underwriting agreement with
provisions reasonably required by the proposed underwriter for
the selling holders, if any; and
28
(iv) Use all reasonable efforts to register or
qualify the Common Stock covered by the registration statement
under the securities or "blue-sky" laws of such jurisdictions
as any selling holder may reasonably request, although the
Company will not have to register in any states that require
it to qualify to do business or subject itself to general
service of process, and for a registration under Section
14(a), the Company will not be required to register in more
states than are necessary to permit the sale of the
securities.
(f) Limitation on Registration. The Company is not required to
file a registration statement requested under Sections 14(b) or 14(c)
prior to the earlier of (i) twenty- four (24) months from the date of
this Agreement, or (ii) ninety (90) days following the effective date
of any other registration statement initiated by the Company except for
registrations being initiated solely to implement an employee's benefit
plan. The Company is not required to file a registration statement
requested under Section 14(b) unless requested by holders owning in the
aggregate a majority of the Underlying Shares. The Company may postpone
the filing of any registration statement required under Sections 14(b)
or 14(c) for a reasonable period of time, not to exceed ninety (90)
days, if the Company has been advised by legal counsel that such filing
would require the disclosure of a material fact, and the Company
determines reasonably and in good faith that such disclosure would have
a material adverse effect on the Company. In addition, if (i) in the
good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, a
required registration under Section 14(b) or 14(c) would be seriously
detrimental to the Company and the Board of Directors of the Company
concludes, as a result, that it is essential to defer the filing of
such registration statement at such time, and (ii) the Company shall
furnish to the Holder a certificate signed by the President of the
Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of
Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the
Company for such registration statement to be filed in the near future
and that it is, therefore, essential to defer the filing of such
registration statement, then the Company shall have the right to defer
such filing for a period of not more than one hundred eighty (180) days
after receipt of the request of the Holder, and, provided further, that
the Company shall not defer its obligation in this manner more than
once in any twelve-month period.
(g) Indemnification. Subject to applicable law, the Company
will indemnify each underwriter and the Holder and each person
controlling any of them, against all claims, losses, damages and
liabilities, including legal and other expenses reasonably incurred,
arising out of any untrue or allegedly untrue statement of a material
fact contained in the registration statement, or any omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in the
registration statement or necessary to make the statements not
misleading, or arising out of any violation by the Company of the
Securities Act, any state securities or "blue-sky" laws or any
applicable rule or regulation. This indemnification will not apply to
any claims, losses, damages or liabilities to the extent they may have
been caused by an untrue statement or omission based upon information
furnished in writing to the Company by such underwriter, the Holder, or
controlling person, respectively, expressly for use in the registration
statement. With respect to such untrue statement or omission in the
information furnished in writing to the Company by the Holder, such
person will indemnify the underwriters, the Company, its directors and
officers, the other persons selling securities under the registration
statement and each person controlling any of them against any losses,
claims, damages, expenses or liabilities to which any of them may
become subject as a result of such untrue statement or omission
(including those incurred in connection with investigating or defending
against such claims).
29
(h) Rule 144 Requirements. The Company will file with the
Commission such information as the Commission may require and will make
available Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any successor exemptive
rule).
(i) Obligations of Investor and Others in a Registration. The
Holder agrees timely to furnish such information regarding such person
and the securities sought to be registered and to take such other
action as the Company may reasonably request in connection with the
registration, qualification or compliance. The Company agrees that, in
connection with any offering undertaken pursuant to Section 14(b), the
Holder shall have the right if it deems an underwriter or underwriters
necessary or appropriate, to designate such underwriter(s), which
underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company and subject
to the written approval of the Company, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld. If the registration involves an underwriter, the
Holder agrees, upon the request of such underwriter, not to sell any
unregistered securities of the Company for a period of ninety (90) days
following the effective date of the registration statement for such
offering and to enter into an underwriting agreement with such
underwriters containing usual and customary terms and provisions.
(j) Preparation: Reasonable Investigation. In connection with
the preparation and filing of each registration statement under the
Securities Act pursuant to this Note, the Company will give the holders
of Underlying Shares registered under such registration statement,
their underwriters, if any, and one counsel or firm of counsel and one
accountant or firm of accountants representing all the holders of
Underlying Shares to be registered under such registration statement,
the opportunity to participate in the preparation of such registration
statement, each prospectus included therein or filed with the
Commission, and each amendment thereof or supplement thereto, and will
give each of them such access to its books and records and such
opportunities to discuss the business of the Company with its officers
and the independent public accountants who have certified its financial
statements as shall be necessary in the opinion of such holders' and
such underwriters' respective counsel to conduct a reasonable
investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act.
(k) Rule 144A. The Company agrees that, upon the request of
any holder of Underlying Shares or any prospective purchaser of
Underlying Shares designated by a holder, the Company shall promptly
provide (but in any case within 15 days of a request) to such holder or
potential purchaser, the following information:
(i) a brief statement of the nature of the business
of the Company and any Subsidiaries and the products and
services they offer;
(ii) the most recent consolidated balance sheets and
profit and losses and retained earnings statements, and
similar financial statements of the Company for the two most
recent fiscal years (such financial information shall be
audited, to the extent reasonably available); and
(iii) such other information about the Company, any
Subsidiaries, and their business, financial condition and
results of operations as the requesting holder or purchaser of
such Underlying Shares shall request in order to comply with
Rule 144A, as amended, and the antifraud provisions of the
federal and state securities laws.
The Company hereby represents and warrants to any such requesting
holder and any prospective purchaser of Underlying Shares from such holder that
the information provided by the Company pursuant to this Section 14(j)
30
will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

terms and conditions as set forth in the Purchase Agreement dated February 16,
2000 (the "Agreement").
6. Understandings of the Purchaser. The Purchaser acknowledges,
understands and agrees that:
(a) The Company reserves the right to reject all or any part of this
subscription in its sole discretion.
(b) The Purchaser will be promptly notified by the Company whether this

in whole, agrees to accept the return of a proportionate part of the funds
tendered to the Company as a refund or a return, and in either case without
interest or deduction.
(c) The Note will bear a legend restricting transfer as described in

34
(d) Neither the Note Stock nor the shares of the Company's Common Stock
into which the Note may be converted have been registered under the Securities

transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of except in compliance
with the Securities Acts; further, the legal consequences of the foregoing mean
that the Purchaser must bear the economic risk of the investment in the Note for
an indefinite period of time; further, if the Purchaser desires to sell or

legal opinion that the transfer may be made without registration under the
Securities Acts; further, other restrictions discussed elsewhere herein and in

(e) No federal or state agency has made any findings or determination
as to the fairness of an investment in the Company or made any recommendation or
endorsement of this investment.
7. Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser. The Purchaser
represents and warrants to the Company as follows:
(a) My commitment to investments that are not readily marketable is not
disproportionate to my net worth, and my investment in the Note will not cause
such overall commitment to become excessive.
(b) I have the financial ability to bear the economic risks of my
investment, have adequate means of providing for my current needs and personal
contingencies, and have no need for liquidity in this investment.
(c) The aggregated purchase price for the Note does not exceed 10% of
my net worth.
(d) I have evaluated the high risks of investing in the Company and
have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters in general
and in particular with respect to this type of investment that I am capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of any investment in the Note.
(e) I have carefully read the Agreement, including the exhibits and
schedules thereto, and I have been given the opportunity to ask questions of and
receive answers from the Company concerning the terms and conditions of this
investment, and to obtain additional information necessary to verify the
accuracy of the information I desired in order to evaluate my investment, and in
evaluating the suitability of this investment I have not relied upon any
representations or other information (whether oral or written), other than that
furnished to me by the Company or its representatives. The Company has delivered
to me copies of its 1999 Annual Report, that certain Company Proxy Statement
dated December 17, 1999, that certain Form SB-2 Registration Statement filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 14, 2000, and that
certain Form 10-QSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
February 14, 2000.
(f) I have had the opportunity to discuss with my professional, legal,
tax and financial advisors the suitability of an investment in the Company for
