                                    RECITALS

         WHEREAS, the Company desires to issue and sell to the Purchasers, and
the Purchasers desire to purchase from the Company, up to one million five
hundred thousand (1,500,000) units (each, a "UNIT"), each unit consisting of one
share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the "COMMON
STOCK") and one-half (0.5) five year warrants ("WARRANTS"), on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement; and

         WHEREAS, the Company and each Purchaser are executing and delivering
this Agreement in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration
afforded by the provisions of Regulation D ("REGULATION D"), as promulgated by
the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT").

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual promises
hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as
follows:

         1.   AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE AND SELL STOCK.

              (a) Authorization. The Company's Board of Directors has authorized
the issuance and sale, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
of up to one million five hundred thousand (1,500,000) Units, consisting in the
aggregate of up to one million five hundred thousand (1,500,000) shares of
Common Stock (the "PURCHASED SHARES") and seven hundred fifty thousand (750,000)
five year warrants, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. Each
whole warrant included in the Units shall be exercisable to purchase one share
of Common Stock at $5.50 per share (the "PURCHASED WARRANTS" and together with
the Purchased Shares, the "PURCHASED SECURITIES").

              (b) Agreement to Purchase and Sell Securities. Subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Purchaser severally agrees to
purchase, and the Company agrees to sell and issue to each Purchaser, at the
Closing (as defined below), that number of Units set forth opposite such
Purchaser's name on Exhibit A attached hereto. The purchase price of each Unit
(the "PER UNIT PRICE") shall be $4.50.

              (c) Use of Proceeds. The Company intends to apply the net proceeds
from the sale of the Purchased Securities for working capital and general
corporate purposes, as well as for strategic purposes in connection with
selected acquisitions that may be considered in the future to expand its product
and service offerings.




              (d) Obligations Several Not Joint. The obligations of each
Purchaser under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of
any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the
performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under this Agreement.
Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto,
shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a
joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the
Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such
obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Purchaser
shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including
without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be
necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any
proceeding for such purpose.

         2. CLOSING. The purchase and sale of the Purchased Securities shall
take place at the offices of Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP, 919 Third
Avenue, New York, New York, at 2:00 p.m. eastern time, on December 31, 2003, or
at such other time and place as the Company and Purchasers representing a
majority of the Units to be purchased, mutually agree upon (which time and place
are referred to in this Agreement as the "CLOSING"). At the Closing, the Company
shall, against delivery of payment for the Purchased Securities by wire transfer
of immediate available funds in accordance with the Company's instructions, (i)
authorize its transfer agent to issue to each Purchaser one or more stock
certificates (the "CERTIFICATES") registered in the name of each Purchaser (or
in such nominee name(s) as designated by such Purchaser in the Stock Certificate
Questionnaire (attached hereto as Appendix I) (the "STOCK CERTIFICATE
QUESTIONNAIRE"), representing the number of Purchased Shares set forth opposite
the appropriate Purchaser's name on Exhibit A hereto, and bearing the legend set
forth in Section 4(j) herein and (ii) issue the number of Purchased Warrants set
forth across such Purchaser's name on Exhibit A hereto. Closing documents may be
delivered by facsimile with original signature pages sent by overnight courier.
The date of the Closing is referred to herein as the Closing Date.

and will be, upon such exercise and payment, validly issued, fully-paid and
non-assessable free from all taxes, liens, claim, encumbrances with respect to
the issuance of such shares and will not be subject to any pre-emptive rights or
similar rights.

                   (iv) Compliance with Securities Laws. Subject to the accuracy
of the representations made by the Purchasers in Section 4 hereof, the Purchased

              (g) Non-Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance of
this Agreement by the Company, and the consummation by the Company of the
transactions contemplated hereby (including issuance of the Purchased
Securities), do not (i) contravene or conflict with the Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation (the "CERTIFICATE OF

                                      -4-


INCORPORATION") or Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "BYLAWS") of the Company;

imposition of any lien, claim or encumbrance on any assets of the Company under,
any material contract to which the Company is a party or any material permit,
license or similar right relating to the Company or by which the Company may be
bound or affected.

              (h) Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding, claim,
arbitration or investigation ("ACTION") pending or, to the Company's knowledge,
threatened in writing: (i) against the Company, its activities, properties or

10-K, the Form 10-Q, the Proxy Statement and the Form

                                      -5-


8-Ks are collectively referred to herein as the "SEC DOCUMENTS"). Each of the
SEC Documents, as of the respective dates thereof (or, if amended or superseded
by a filing prior to the Closing Date, then on the date of such filing), did not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each SEC Document, as
it may have been subsequently amended by filings made by the Company with the
SEC prior to the date hereof, complied in all material respects with the
requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC
promulgated thereunder applicable to such SEC Document.

                        (2) Sarbanes-Oxley. The Chief Executive Officer and the
Chief Financial Officer of the Company have signed, and the Company has
furnished to the SEC, all certifications required by Sections 302 and 906 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Such certifications contain no qualifications or
exceptions to the matters certified therein and have not been modified or
withdrawn; and neither the Company nor any of its officers has received notice
from any governmental entity questioning or challenging the accuracy,
completeness, form or manner of filing or submission of such certifications.

                        (3) Financial Statements. The financial statements of
the Company in the SEC Documents present fairly, in accordance with United
States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), consistently applied,
the financial position of the Company as of the dates indicated, and the results
of its operations and cash flows for the periods therein specified, subject, in
the case of unaudited financial statements for interim periods, to normal
year-end audit adjustments.

              (l) Absence of Certain Changes Since the Balance Sheet Date.

business and operations of the Company have been conducted in the ordinary
course consistent with past practice, and there has not been:

                   (i) any declaration, setting aside or payment of any dividend
or other distribution of the assets of the Company with respect to any shares of
capital stock of the Company or any repurchase, redemption or other acquisition
by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company of any outstanding shares of the
Company's capital stock;

                   (ii) any damage, destruction or loss, whether or not covered
by insurance, except for such occurrences, individually and collectively, that
have not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse
Effect;

                   (iii) any waiver by the Company of a valuable right or of a
material debt owed to it, except for such waivers, individually and
collectively, that have not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, a
Material Adverse Effect;

                   (iv) any material change or amendment to, or any waiver of
any material right under a material contract or arrangement by which the Company
or any of its assets or properties is bound or subject;

                                      -6-


                   (v) any change by the Company in its accounting principles,
methods or practices or in the manner in which it keeps its accounting books and
records, except any such change required by a change in GAAP or by the SEC; or

                   (vi) any other event or condition of any character, except
for such events and conditions that have not resulted, and are not expected to
result, either individually or collectively, in a Material Adverse Effect.

              (m) Intellectual Property. The Company owns or possesses
sufficient rights to use all patents, patent rights, inventions, trade secrets,
know-how, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights or other
information (collectively, "INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY"), which are necessary to
conduct its businesses as currently conducted, except where the failure to
currently own or possess would not reasonably be expected to result, either
individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has
not received any written notice of, and has no actual knowledge of, any
infringement of or conflict with asserted rights of others with respect to any
Intellectual Property which, either individually or in the aggregate, if the
subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and to the Company's knowledge, none
of the patent rights owned or licensed by the Company are unenforceable or
invalid.

              (n) Registration Rights. Except as provided in Section 5 herein,
effective upon the Closing, the Company is not currently subject to any
agreement providing any person or entity any rights (including piggyback
registration rights) to have any securities of the Company registered with the
SEC or registered or qualified with any other governmental authority.

              (o) Title to Property and Assets. The properties and assets of the
Company are owned by the Company free and clear of all mortgages, deeds of
trust, liens, charges, encumbrances and security interests except for (i)
statutory liens for the payment of current taxes that are not yet delinquent and
(ii) liens, encumbrances and security interests that arise in the ordinary
course of business and do not in any material respect affect the properties and
assets of the Company. With respect to the property and assets it leases, the
Company is in compliance with such leases in all material respects.

              (p) Taxes. The Company has filed or has valid extensions of the
time to file all necessary federal, state, and foreign income and franchise tax
returns due prior to the date hereof and has paid or accrued all taxes shown as
due thereon, and the Company has no knowledge of any material tax deficiency
which has been or might be asserted or threatened against it.

              (q) Insurance. The Company maintains insurance of the types and in
the amounts that the Company reasonably believes is prudent and adequate for its
business, all of which insurance is in full force and effect.

              (r) Labor Relations. No material labor dispute exists or, to the
knowledge of the Company, is imminent with respect to any of the employees of
the Company.

                                      -7-


              (s) Internal Accounting Controls. The Company and the Subsidiaries
maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide
reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with
management's general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded
as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability,
(iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general
or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is
compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action
is taken with respect to any differences.

              (t) Transactions With Officers and Directors. Except as set forth
in the Disclosure Letter, none of the officers or directors of the Company has
entered into any transaction with the Company or any Subsidiary that would be
required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a), (b) or (c) of Regulation S-K
of the SEC.

              (u) General Solicitation. Neither the Company nor any other person
or entity authorized by the Company to act on its behalf has engaged in a
general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D
of the Securities Act) of investors with respect to offers or sales of the
Purchased Securities.

              (v) Registration Statement Matters. The Company meets the
eligibility requirements for use of a Form S-3 Registration Statement for the
resale of the Purchased Shares by the Purchasers. Assuming the completion and
timely delivery of the Registration Statement Questionnaire (attached hereto as
Appendix II) (the "REGISTRATION STATEMENT QUESTIONNAIRE") by each Purchaser to
the Company, the Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances that would
prohibit or delay the preparation and filing of a registration statement with
respect to the Registrable Shares (as defined below).

              (w) No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company, nor any Affiliate
(as hereafter defined) of the Company, nor any person acting on its or their
behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or
solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause
this offering of the Purchased Securities to be integrated with prior offerings
by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act, any applicable state
securities laws or any applicable stockholder approval provisions, including,
without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any national securities
exchange or automated quotation system on which any of the securities of the
Company are listed or designated, nor will the Company take any action or steps
that would cause the offering of the Purchased Securities to be integrated with
other offerings.

              (x) Nasdaq Listing Matters. The Common Stock of the Company is
registered and listed on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol "GCOM." The Company has
not received any notice that it is not in compliance with the listing or
maintenance requirements of Nasdaq. The issuance and sale of the Purchased
Securities under this Agreement does not contravene the rules and regulations of
Nasdaq.

         4. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND CERTAIN AGREEMENTS OF THE
PURCHASERS. Each Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company,
severally and not jointly, and agrees that:

                                      -8-


              (a) Organization Good Standing and Qualification. The Purchaser
has all corporate, limited liability company, partnership, trust or individual
power and authority required to enter into this Agreement and the other
agreements, instruments and documents contemplated hereby, and to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

              (b) Authorization. The execution of this Agreement has been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company, partnership,
trust or individual action on the part of the Purchaser. This Agreement
constitutes the Purchaser's legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable in
accordance with its terms, except (i) as may be limited by (1) applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws of general application
relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and (2)
the effect of rules of law governing the availability of equitable remedies and
(ii) as rights to indemnity or contribution may be limited under federal or
state securities laws or by principles of public policy thereunder.

              (c) Litigation. There is no Action pending to which such Purchaser
is a party that is reasonably likely to prevent, enjoin, alter or delay the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

              (d) Purchase for Own Account. The Purchased Securities are being
acquired for investment for the Purchaser's own account, not as a nominee or
agent, in the ordinary course of business, and not with a view to the public
resale or distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act, without
prejudice, however, to such Purchaser's right at all times to sell or otherwise
dispose of all or any part of such securities in compliance with applicable
federal and state securities laws and as otherwise contemplated by this
Agreement. The Purchaser also represents that it has not been formed for the
specific purpose of acquiring the Purchased Securities. The Purchaser does not
have any agreement or understanding, direct or indirect, with any other person
or entity, to sell or otherwise distribute the Purchased Securities.

              (e) Investment Experience. The Purchaser understands that the
purchase of the Purchased Securities involves substantial risk. The Purchaser
has experience as an investor in securities of companies and acknowledges that
it can bear the economic risk of its investment in the Purchased Securities and
has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment in the Purchased
Securities and protecting its own interests in connection with this investment.

              (f) Accredited Purchaser Status. The Purchaser is an "accredited
investor" within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities
Act.

              (g) Reliance Upon Purchaser's Representations. The Purchaser
understands that the issuance and sale of the Purchased Securities to it will
not be registered under the Securities Act on the ground that such issuance and
sale will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to
Section 4(2) thereof, and that the Company's reliance on such exemption is based
on each Purchaser's representations set forth herein.

              (h) Receipt of Information. The Purchaser has had an opportunity
to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and
conditions of the issuance and sale of the Purchased Securities and the
business, properties, prospects and

                                      -9-


financial condition of the Company and to obtain any additional information
requested and has received and considered all information it deems relevant to
make an informed decision to purchase the Purchased Securities. Neither such
inquiries nor any other investigation conducted by or on behalf of such
Purchaser or its representatives or counsel shall modify, amend or affect such
Purchaser's right to rely on the truth, accuracy and completeness of such
information and the Company's representations and warranties contained in this
Agreement.

              (i) Restricted Securities. The Purchaser understands that the
Purchased Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and will
not sell, offer to sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any
of the Purchased Securities unless (i) pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act, (ii) such holder provides the Company with
an opinion of counsel, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that a
sale, assignment or transfer of the Purchased Securities may be made without
registration under the Securities Act and the transferee agrees to be bound by
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, (iii) such holder provides the
Company with reasonable assurances (in the form of seller and broker
representation letters) that the Purchased Shares or the Underlying Shares, as
the case may be, can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act ("RULE 144") or (iv) pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated under
the Securities Act following the applicable holding period. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, including but not limited
to in Section 5(c)(i) below, the Purchaser may transfer (without restriction and
without the need for an opinion of counsel) the Purchased Shares or the
Underlying Shares to its Affiliates (as defined below) provided that each such
Affiliate is an "accredited investor" under Regulation D, and such Affiliate
agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

         For the purposes of this Agreement, an "AFFILIATE" of any specified
Purchaser means any other person or entity directly or indirectly controlling,
controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified
Purchaser. For purposes of this definition, "CONTROL" means the power to direct
the management and policies of such person or firm, directly or indirectly,
whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.

              (j) Legends.

                   (i) Purchased Shares and Underlying Shares. The Purchaser
agrees that the certificates for the Purchased Shares and the Underlying Shares
shall bear the following legend:

              "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
              REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE
              "SECURITIES ACT") OR WITH ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION, AND MAY
              NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR DISPOSED OF BY THE HOLDER IN THE ABSENCE OF
              A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WHICH IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES
              ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE LAWS AND RULES, OR, UNLESS, IMMEDIATELY
              PRIOR TO THE TIME SET FOR TRANSFER, SUCH TRANSFER MAY BE EFFECTED
              WITHOUT

                                      -10-


              VIOLATION OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND OTHER APPLICABLE STATE LAWS
              AND RULES."

         In addition, the Purchaser agrees that the Company may place stop
transfer orders with its transfer agent with respect to such certificates in
order to implement the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Agreement. The
appropriate portion of the legend and the stop transfer orders will be removed
promptly upon delivery to the Company of such satisfactory evidence as
reasonably may be required by the Company that such legend or stop orders are
not required to ensure compliance with the Securities Act.

                   (ii) Warrant. The Purchase agrees that Warrants shall bear
the following legend:

              "THIS WARRANT AND THE SHARES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE
              NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
              (THE "ACT") OR WITH ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION, AND MAY NOT
              BE TRANSFERRED OR DISPOSED OF BY THE HOLDER IN THE ABSENCE OF A
              REGISTRATION STATEMENT WHICH IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
              AND APPLICABLE STATE LAWS AND RULES, OR, UNLESS, IMMEDIATELY PRIOR
              TO THE TIME SET FOR TRANSFER, SUCH TRANSFER MAY BE EFFECTED
              WITHOUT VIOLATION OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND OTHER APPLICABLE STATE
              LAWS AND RULES."


              (k) Questionnaires. The Purchaser has completed or caused to be
completed the Stock Certificate Questionnaire and the Registration Statement
Questionnaire for use in preparation of the Registration Statement (as defined
in Section 5(a)(ii) below), and the answers to such questionnaires are true and
correct as of the date of this Agreement; provided, that the Purchasers shall be
entitled to update such information by providing written notice thereof to the
Company before the effective date of the Registration Statement.

              (l) Restrictions on Short Sales. The Purchaser represents,
warrants and covenants neither the Purchaser nor any Affiliate of such Purchaser
which (x) had knowledge of the transactions contemplated hereby, (y) has or
shares discretion relating to such Purchaser's investments or trading or
information concerning such Purchaser's investments, including in respect of the
Purchased Securities, or (z) is subject to such Purchaser's review or input
concerning such Affiliate's investments or trading, has or will, directly or
indirectly, during the period beginning on the date on which C.E. Unterberg,
Towbin, a financial advisor to the Company, first contacted such Purchaser
regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (and involving the
Company) and ending on the Closing Date, engage in (i) any "short sales" (as
such term is defined in Rule 3b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of the
Common Stock, including, without limitation, the maintaining of any short
position with respect to, establishing or maintaining a "put equivalent
position" (within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act) with
respect to, entering into any swap, derivative transaction or other arrangement
(whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock,
other

                                      -11-


securities, cash or other consideration) that transfers to another, in whole or
in part, any economic consequences or ownership, or otherwise dispose of, any of
the Purchased Securities by the Purchaser or (ii) any hedging transaction which
establishes a net short position with respect to the Purchased Securities
(clauses (i) and (ii) together, a "SHORT SALE"); except for (A) Short Sales by
the Purchaser or Affiliate of such Purchaser which was, prior to the date on
which such Purchaser was first contacted by C.E. Unterberg, Towbin regarding the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, a market maker for the Common
Stock, provided that such Short Sales are in the ordinary course of business of
such Purchaser or Affiliate of such Purchaser and are in compliance with the
Securities Act, the rules and regulations of the Securities Act and such other
securities laws as may be applicable, (B) Short Sales by the Purchaser or an
Affiliate of such Purchaser which by virtue of the procedures of such Purchaser
are made without knowledge of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
(C) Short Sales by the Purchaser or an Affiliate of such Purchaser to the extent
that such Purchaser or Affiliate of such Purchaser is acting in the capacity of
a broker-dealer executing unsolicited third-party transactions.

              (m) Confidentiality. The Purchaser agrees to use any information
it receives in the course of and in connection with this transaction for the
sole purpose of evaluating a possible investment in the Purchased Securities and
the Purchaser hereby acknowledges that it is prohibited from reproducing or
distributing any such information, this Agreement, or any other offering
materials provided by the Company in connection with the Purchaser's
consideration of its investment in the Company, in whole or in part, or
divulging or discussing any of their contents except to its advisors and
representatives for the purpose of evaluating such investment. The foregoing
agreements shall not apply to any information that is or becomes publicly
available through no fault of the Purchaser, or that the Purchaser is legally
required to disclose; provided, however, that if the Purchaser is requested or
ordered to disclose any such information pursuant to any court or other
governmental order or any other applicable legal procedure, it shall provide the
Company with reasonably prompt notice of any such request or order to enable the
Company to seek an appropriate protective order and shall provide the Company
with reasonable assistance in obtaining such protective order at the Company's
sole expense. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any party to this
Agreement (and any employee, representative, or other agent of any party to this
Agreement) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind,
the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax
analyses) that are provided to it relating to such tax treatment and tax
structure. However, any such information relating to the tax treatment or tax
structure is required to be kept confidential to the extent necessary to comply
with any applicable federal or state securities laws.

         5. FORM D FILING; REGISTRATION; COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT.

              (a) Form D Filing; Registration of the Purchased Shares and the
Underlying Shares. The Company hereby agrees that it shall:

                   (i) file in a timely manner a Form D relating to the sale of
the Purchased Securities under this Agreement, pursuant to Regulation D
promulgated under the Securities Act;

                                      -12-


                   (ii) prepare and file with the SEC as soon as practicable and
in no event later than thirty (30) days following the Closing, a registration
statement on Form S-3 (the "REGISTRATION STATEMENT"), to enable the resale of
the Purchased Shares and the sale of the Underlying Shares (together with any
shares of Common Stock issued as a dividend or other distribution with respect
to, or in exchange for, or in replacement of, the Purchased Shares or the
Underlying Shares, the "REGISTRABLE SHARES") by the Purchasers from time to time
on Nasdaq and use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration
Statement to be declared effective as promptly as possible after filing, but in
any event, within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date or, in the event
of a review of the Registration Statement by the SEC, within one hundred twenty
(120) days following the Closing Date, and to remain continuously effective
until the earlier of (1) the second anniversary of the effective date of the
Registration Statement, (2) the date on which all Registrable Shares purchased
by the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement have been sold thereunder or (3)
the date on which the Registrable Shares can be sold by nonaffiliates of the
Company pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act (the
"REGISTRATION PERIOD"). In the event that the Company does not meet the
requirements for the use of Form S-3, the Company shall use such other form as
is available for such a registration, and shall convert such other form to Form
S-3, or file a replacement registration statement on Form S-3, promptly after
the first date on which it meets such requirements;

                   (iii) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments
(including post-effective amendments) and supplements to the Registration
Statement and the Prospectus (as defined below) used in connection therewith as
may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective at all times until
the end of the Registration Period;

                   (iv) furnish to the Purchasers with respect to the
Registrable Shares registered under the Registration Statement such reasonable
number of copies of any prospectus in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act and such other documents as the Purchaser may reasonably request,
in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of all or any of the
Registrable Shares by the Purchasers;

                   (v) use its commercially reasonable efforts to file documents
required of the Company for normal blue sky clearance in states specified in
writing by the Purchasers; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required to qualify to do business or consent to service of process in any
jurisdiction in which it is not now so qualified or has not so consented;

                   (vi) take all such action as is required of it to cause the
Registrable Shares to be listed on Nasdaq on the Closing Date;

                   (vii) promptly notify the Purchasers in writing when the
Registration Statement has been declared effective;

                   (viii) promptly notify the Purchasers in writing of the
existence of any fact or the happening of any event, during the Registration
Period (but not as to the substance of any such fact or event), that makes any
statement of a material fact made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus,
any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference
therein untrue, or that requires the making of any additions to or changes in
the Registration Statement or the Prospectus in order to make the statements
therein not misleading

                                      -13-


(provided, however, that no notice by the Company shall be required pursuant to
this subsection (viii) in the event that the Company either contemporaneously
files a prospectus supplement to update the Prospectus or a Form 8-K or other
appropriate Exchange Act report that is incorporated by reference into the
Registration Statement, which, in either case, contains the requisite
information with respect to such material event that results in such
Registration Statement no longer containing any such untrue or misleading
statements);

                   (ix) furnish to each Purchaser upon written request, from the
date of this Agreement until the end of the Registration Period, one copy of its
periodic reports filed with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations promulgated thereunder; and

                   (x) bear all expenses in connection with the procedures
described in paragraphs (i) through (ix) of this Section 5(a) and the
registration of the Registrable Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement
other than fees and expenses, if any, of legal counsel or other advisers to the
Purchasers or underwriting discounts, brokerage fees and commissions incurred by
the Purchasers, if any.

         It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to
take any action pursuant to this Section 5(a) with respect to Registrable Shares
held by a Purchaser that such Purchaser shall timely furnish to the Company a
completed Registration Statement Questionnaire on or before the Closing Date and
such other written information regarding itself, the Registrable Shares to be
sold by such Purchaser, and the intended method of disposition of the
Registrable Shares as shall be required to effect the registration of the
Registrable Shares. The Purchasers shall update such information as and when
necessary by written notice to the Company.

              (b) Liquidated Damages.

                   (i) Delay in Effectiveness of Registration Statement. In the
event that the Registration Statement is not declared effective within ninety
(90) days following the Closing Date or, in the event of a review of the
Registration Statement by the SEC, within one hundred twenty (120) days
following the Closing Date, the Company shall pay to each Purchaser liquidated
damages (in addition to the rights and remedies available to each Purchaser
under applicable law and this Agreement), a rate equal to one percent (1%) per
month of the total purchase price of the Purchased Securities purchased by such
Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement. Such liquidated damages shall be payable
monthly in cash.

                   (ii) Lapse in Effectiveness of Registration Statement. In the
event that the Registration Statement is filed and declared effective but,
during the Registration Period, shall thereafter cease to be effective or
useable or the prospectus included in the Registration Statement (the
"PROSPECTUS", as amended or supplemented by any prospectus supplement and by all
other amendments thereto and all material incorporated by reference in such
Prospectus) ceases to be usable, in either case, in connection with resales of
Registrable Shares, without such lapse being cured within ten (10) business days
(the "CURE PERIOD") by a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement,
a supplement to the Prospectus or a report filed with the SEC pursuant to
Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that cures such lapse,
then the Company shall pay to each Purchaser, liquidated damages (in addition to
the rights and

                                      -14-


remedies available to each Purchaser under applicable law and this Agreement),
for the period from and including the first day following the expiration of the
Cure Period until, but excluding, the earlier of (1) the date on which such
failure is cured and (2) the date on which the Registration Period expires, at a
rate equal to two percent (2%) per annum (pro rata on a 360 day basis) of the
total purchase price of the Purchased Securities purchased by such Purchaser
pursuant to this Agreement. Such liquidated damages shall be payable monthly in
cash.

              (c) Transfer of Registrable Shares After Registration; Suspension.

                   (i) The Purchasers agree that they will not offer to sell or
make any sale, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or other transfer with respect
to the Registrable Shares that would constitute a sale within the meaning of the
Securities Act except pursuant to either (1) the Registration Statement, (2)
Rule 144 of the Securities Act or (3) any other exemption from registration
under the Securities Act, and that they will promptly notify the Company of any
changes in the information set forth in the Registration Statement after it is
prepared regarding the Purchaser or its plan of distribution to the extent
required by applicable law.

                   (ii) In addition to any suspension rights under paragraph
(iii) below, upon the happening of any pending corporate development, public
filing with the SEC or similar event, that, in the judgment of Company's Board
of Directors, renders it advisable to suspend use of the Prospectus or upon the
request by an underwriter in connection with an underwritten public offering of
the Company's securities, the Company may, on not more than two (2) occasions
for not more than forty-five (45) days on each such occasion, suspend use of the
Prospectus, on written notice to each Purchaser (which notice will not disclose
the content of any material non-public information and will indicate the date of
the beginning and end of the intended period of suspension, if known), in which
case each Purchaser shall discontinue disposition of Registrable Shares covered
by the Registration Statement or Prospectus until copies of a supplemented or
amended Prospectus are distributed to the Purchasers or until the Purchasers are
advised in writing by the Company that sales of Registrable Shares under the
applicable Prospectus may be resumed and have received copies of any additional
or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by
reference in any such Prospectus. The suspension and notice thereof described in
this Section 5(c)(ii) shall be held in strictest confidence and shall not be
disclosed by the Purchasers.

                   (iii) Subject to paragraph (iv) below, in the event of: (1)
any request by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority
during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for amendments
or supplements to a Registration Statement or related prospectus or for
additional information, (2) the issuance by the SEC or any other federal or
state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a
Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose,
(3) the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the
suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the
Registrable Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any
proceeding for such purpose, or (4) any event or circumstance which necessitates
the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any
document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, so
that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
and that

                                      -15-


in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Company shall
deliver a certificate in writing to the Purchasers (the "SUSPENSION NOTICE") to
the effect of the foregoing (which notice will not disclose the content of any
material non-public information and will indicate the date of the beginning and
end of the intended period of suspension, if known), and, upon receipt of such
Suspension Notice, the Purchasers will discontinue disposition of Registrable
Shares covered by to the Registration Statement or Prospectus (a "SUSPENSION")
until the Purchasers' receipt of copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus
prepared and filed by the Company, or until the Purchasers are advised in
writing by the Company that the current Prospectus may be used, and have
received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated
or deemed incorporated by reference in any such prospectus. In the event of any
Suspension, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause
the use of the Prospectus so suspended to be resumed as soon as possible after
delivery of a Suspension Notice to the Purchasers. The Suspension and Suspension
Notice described in this Section 5(c)(iii) shall be held in strictest confidence
and shall not be disclosed by the Purchasers.

                   (iv) Provided that a Suspension is not then in effect, the
Purchasers may sell Registrable Shares under the Registration Statement,
provided that the selling Purchaser arranges for delivery of a current
Prospectus to the transferee of such Registrable Shares to the extent such
delivery is required by applicable law.

                   (v) In the event of a sale of Registrable Shares by a
Purchaser, such Purchaser must also deliver to the Company's transfer agent,
with a copy to the Company, a certificate of subsequent sale reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, so that ownership of the Registrable Shares may be
properly transferred. The Company will cooperate to facilitate the timely
preparation and delivery of certificates (unless otherwise required by
applicable law) representing Registrable Shares sold.

              (d) Indemnification. For the purpose of this Section 5(d), the
term "REGISTRATION STATEMENT" shall include any preliminary or final Prospectus,
exhibit, supplement or amendment included in or relating to the Registration
Statement referred to in Section 5(a).

                   (i) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless each of the Purchasers, their respective officers,
directors, agents and employees, and each person, if any, who controls any
Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses, joint or several, to which such Purchasers, such officers, directors,
agents or employees, or such controlling persons may become subject, under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other federal or state statutory law or
regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any
litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the
Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), insofar as such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof
as contemplated below) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration
Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out
of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in

                                      -16-


any of them a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements in any of them, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading, and will reimburse each Purchaser, each of its
respective directors, officers, agents and employees, and each such controlling
person for any reasonable legal and other expenses as such reasonable expenses
are incurred by such Purchaser, such director, officer, agent or employee, or
such controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling,
compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or
action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case
to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action
arises out of or is based upon (1) an untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement,
the Prospectus or any amendment to or supplement of the Registration Statement
or Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Purchaser expressly for use in
the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, (2) the failure of such Purchaser
to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement
respecting resale of the Purchased Shares or the sale of the Underlying Shares,
or (3) any untrue statement or omission of a material fact required to make such
statement not misleading in any Prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent
Prospectus that was delivered to the Purchaser before the pertinent sale or
sales by the Purchaser.

                   (ii) Indemnification by the Purchaser. Each Purchaser will
severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its
directors, officers, agents and employees, and each person, if any, who controls
the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which the Company, its directors,
officers, agents and employees, or any controlling persons may become subject,
under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state
statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in
settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written
consent of such Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld)
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in
respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of or are based upon any untrue
or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration
Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration
Statement or Prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the
extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration
Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or
on behalf of such Purchaser expressly for use therein, and the Purchaser will
reimburse the Company, each of its directors, officers, agents and employees,
and any controlling persons for any reasonable legal and other expense incurred
by the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, and any
controlling persons, in connection with investigating, defending, settling,
compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or
action; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be liable for any such
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission with respect
to which the Purchaser has delivered to the Company in writing a correction
before the occurrence of the event from which such loss was incurred.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(d), the Purchaser shall not be
liable for any indemnification obligation under this Agreement in

                                      -17-


excess of the aggregate amount of net proceeds received by the Purchaser from
the sale of the Registrable Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement.

                   (iii) Indemnification Procedure.

                        (1) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under
this Section 5(d) of notice of the threat or commencement of any action, such
indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an
indemnifying party under this Section 5(d), promptly notify the indemnifying
party in writing of the claim; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying
party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any
indemnified party for contribution or otherwise under the indemnity agreement
contained in this Section 5(d) or otherwise, to the extent it is not prejudiced
as a result of such failure.

                        (2) In case any such action is brought against any
indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity
from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to
participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with all other
indemnifying parties similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if
the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded
that there may be a conflict between the positions of the indemnifying party and
the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there
may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are
different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the
indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to
assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such
action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice
from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to
assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of
counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party
under this Section 5(d) for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by
such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless:

                             a) the indemnified party shall have employed such
counsel in connection with the assumption of legal defenses in accordance with
the proviso to the preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the
indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one
separate counsel, approved by such indemnifying party, representing all of the
indemnified parties who are parties to such action); or

                             b) the indemnifying party shall not have employed
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the
indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the
action against the indemnified party,

in each of which cases the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the
indemnified party shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party.

                   (iv) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in
this Section 5(d) is required by its terms but is for any reason held to be
unavailable to, or is otherwise insufficient to hold harmless, an indemnified
party under this Section 5(d) with respect to any

                                      -18-


losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to in this Agreement,
then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by
such indemnified party as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or expenses referred to in this Agreement:

                        (1) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative faults of the Company and the Purchaser in connection with the
statements or omissions or inaccuracies in the representations and warranties in
this Agreement that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations, or

                        (2) if the allocation provided by clause (1) above is
not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
not only the relative faults referred to in clause (1) above but the relative
benefits received by the Company and the Purchaser from the sale of the
Purchased Securities.

         The respective relative benefits received by the Company on the one
hand and each Purchaser on the other shall be deemed to be in the same
proportion as the amount to which the consideration paid by such Purchaser to
the Company pursuant to this Agreement for the Purchased Securities purchased by
such Purchaser that were sold pursuant to the Registration Statement bears to
the difference (the "DIFFERENCE") between the amount such Purchaser paid for the
Purchased Securities that were sold pursuant to the Registration Statement and
the amount received by such Purchaser from such sale. The relative fault of the
Company and each Purchaser shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact or the inaccurate or the
alleged inaccurate material fact relates to information supplied by the Company
or by such Purchaser and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include,
subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5(d)(iii), any reasonable legal
or other fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with
investigating or defending any such action or claim. The provisions set forth in
Section 5(d)(iii) with respect to the notice of the threat or commencement of
any threat or action shall apply if a claim for contribution is to be made under
this Section 5(d)(iv); provided, however, that no additional notice shall be
required with respect to any threat or action for which notice has been given
under Section 5(d)(iii) for purposes of indemnification. The Company and each
Purchaser agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant
to this Section 5(d)(iv) were determined solely by pro rata allocation (even if
the Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other
method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations
referred to in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section
5(d)(iv), no Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of
the amount by which the Difference exceeds the amount of any damages that such
Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any person who is not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. The Purchasers' obligations to contribute pursuant
to this Section 5(d)(iv) are several and not joint.

                                      -19-


              (e) Rule 144 Information. For two years after the date of this
Agreement, the Company shall file in a timely manner all reports required to be
filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder and shall take such further action to the
extent required to enable the Purchasers to sell the Purchased Shares and the
Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (as such rule
may be amended from time to time).

         6. ADVISORY FEE. The Purchasers acknowledge that the Company intends to
pay to C.E. Unterberg, Towbin, as financial advisor, a fee in respect of the
sale of the Purchased Securities. Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby
represents that, on the basis of any actions and agreements by it, there are no
other brokers or finders entitled to compensation in connection with the sale of
the Purchased Securities to the Purchasers. The Company shall indemnify and hold
harmless the Purchasers from and against all fees, commissions or other payments
owing by the Company to C.E. Unterberg, Towbin or any other person or firm
acting on behalf of the Company hereunder.

         7. CONDITIONS TO THE PURCHASER'S OBLIGATIONS AT CLOSING. The

Agreement.

              (i) Opinion of Company Counsel. The Purchasers will have received

fulfillment or waiver, on or before the Closing, of each of the following
conditions:

              (a) Representations and Warranties True. The representations and

Closing.

                                      -21-

this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of the Purchasers holding at least a majority of the total aggregate
number of Purchased Shares and Underlying Shares then outstanding (excluding any
shares sold to the public pursuant to Rule 144 or otherwise). Any Purchaser may

and permitted by federal and state securities laws.

              (b) Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and

              (g) Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may be amended and the
observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived only with the written
consent of the Company and the Purchasers holding at least seventy-five percent
(75%) of the total aggregate number of Purchased Shares and Underlying Shares

be binding upon the Purchasers, the Company and their respective successors and
assigns.

              (h) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
unenforceable under applicable law, such provision will be excluded from this
Agreement and the balance of the Agreement will be interpreted as if such
provision were so excluded and will be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

              (i) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with all exhibits
and schedules hereto and thereto constitutes the entire agreement and
understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
supersedes any and all prior negotiations, correspondence, agreements,
understandings, duties or obligations between the parties with respect to the
subject matter hereof.

              (j) Further Assurances. From and after the date of this Agreement,
upon the request of the Company or the Purchasers, the Company and the
Purchasers will execute and deliver such instruments, documents or other
writings, and take such other actions, as may be reasonably necessary or
desirable to confirm and carry out and to effectuate fully the intent and
purposes of this Agreement.

              (k) Meaning of Include and Including. Whenever in this Agreement
the word "include" or "including" is used, it shall be deemed to mean "include,
without limitation" or "including, without limitation," as the case may be, and
the language following "include" or "including" shall not be deemed to set forth
an exhaustive list.

              (l) Fees, Costs and Expenses. Except as otherwise provided for in
this Agreement, all fees, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees and
expenses) incurred by any party hereto in connection with the preparation,
negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the exhibits and schedules
hereto and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby
(including the costs associated with any filings with, or compliance with any of
the requirements of any governmental authorities), shall be the sole and
exclusive responsibility of such party.

              (m) 8-K Filing and Publicity. On the Closing Date, the Company
shall file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC describing the terms of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and attaching this Agreement and the
press release referred to below as exhibits to such filing (the "8-K FILING"
including all attachments). Neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue
any press releases or any other public statements with respect to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company
shall be entitled, without the prior approval of any Purchaser, to issue any
press release or make any other public disclosure (including a press release
(concerning the offering of the Purchased Securities) pursuant to Rule 135(c)
under the Securities Act) with respect to such transactions (i) in

                                      -24-


substantial conformity with the 8-K Filing and (ii) as is required by applicable
law, regulations, and Nasdaq rules; and, provided further, that no such release
may identify a Purchaser unless such Purchaser has consented thereto in writing,
or as required by law.

              (n) Stock Splits, Dividends and other Similar Events. The
provisions of this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any
stock split, stock dividend, reorganization or other similar event that may
occur with respect to the Company after the date hereof.

              (o) Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights
provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each Purchaser
and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under this Agreement.
The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any
loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing
sentence and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance of
any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
