                              XYBERNAUT CORPORATION

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.       Basis of Presentation

         The accompanying unaudited, consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial  information  and  instructions  to Form  10-QSB  and  Rule  10-01  of
Regulation  S-X.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management,  all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals)  considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been reflected in such financial  statements.  Results of operations for the six
months  ended  June  30,1998  are  not  necessarily  indicative  of  results  of
operations  expected for the full year. The Company's  fiscal year ends December
31.

2.       Principles of Consolidation

         The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Xybernaut
Corporation ("the Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary,  Tech International
of Virginia  Inc.  ("Tech  Virginia").  All material  intercompany  accounts and
transactions have been eliminated.

3.       New Accounting Pronouncements

         The Financial  Accounting  Standards Board has issued two new standards
which become effective for reporting  periods beginning after December 15, 1997.
SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income",  requires additional disclosures
with respect to certain changes in assets and  liabilities  that previously were
not required to be reported as results of  operations  for the period.  SFAS No.
131,  "Disclosures  about  Segments of an Enterprise  and Related  Information",
requires  financial  and  descriptive  information  with  respect to  "operating
segments" of an entity based on the way management  disaggregates the entity for
making  internal  operating  decisions.  There  is no  impact  on the  financial
statements from the adoption of these pronouncements.

         In addition,  the Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued, SFAS
No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative  Instruments and Hedging Activities",  which
becomes effective for years beginning after June 15, 1999. SFAS No. 133 requires
that every  derivative  instrument be recorded in the balance sheet as either an
asset or a liability  measured at its basic value.  The statement  requires that
changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized in earnings unless specific
hedge  amortizing  criteria are met. The Company believes that the effect of the
adoption of SFAS No. 133 on the Company will not be material.

4.       Preferred Stock

         In January 1998,  the Company placed 1,000 shares of Series B Preferred
Stock and received cash proceeds of  approximately  $974,000 from this issuance.
In connection with this placement and

                                       -6-

<PAGE>



the placement of 3,000 shares of Series B Preferred  Stock in November 1997, the
placement  agent received  50,000 shares of Common Stock in lieu of 60 shares of
Series B  Preferred,  warrants  to  purchase  25,000  shares of Common  Stock at
$2.1313 and warrants to purchase 75,000 shares of Common Stock at $3.025. During
the six months ended June 30, 1998, 2,250 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and
4,180 shares of Series B Preferred  Stock were converted to 4,878,074  shares of
Common Stock, pursuant to their respective terms. As of the current date, all of
the  3,000  shares  of Series A  Preferred  Stock  and 4,180  shares of Series B
Preferred Stock issued by the Company have been fully converted resulting in the
issuance of 1,958,984 and 3,172,239 shares of Common Stock, respectively.

         In May 1998, the Company placed 375 shares of Series C Preferred  Stock
and received cash proceeds of $375,000 from this issuance. No shares of Series C
Preferred Stock have been converted as of the date hereof.

5.       Commitments

         The Company  entered into a Memorandum  of  Understanding  ("MOU") with
Sony Digital  Products  ("SODP") on May 14, 1998.  This agreement  obligates the
Company to reimburse  SODP Yen 100 million  over a ten month  period  commencing
April 1998.  These  payments  are  reimbursements  to SODP for  engineering  and
development of the Company's Mobile Assistant IV(TM). The Company,  through June
1998, has remitted to SODP Yen 15 million under the Memorandum of  Understanding
in  accordance  with the  payment  terms.  The balance of the  payments  and the
related  recognition  of expense will occur as the services are provided by SODP
to the Company.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF
        OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

                                    Overview

         The Company was  incorporated as a Virginia company in October 1990 and
commenced  active  operations in November 1992 as Computer  Products & Services,
Inc. to develop, manufacture and sell mobile computing systems. Since commencing
operations,  the Company has incurred  significant  operating  losses.  In April
1996, the Company was merged with  Xybernaut  Corporation in order to change the
company  name  and  reincorporate  in  Delaware.   In  July  1996,  the  Company
successfully  completed the initial public offering  ("IPO") of its Common Stock
and Warrants which are traded on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market.

      The first product to be  commercialized  by the Company is the proprietary
portable computer technology and related software  applications  embodied in its
Mobile  Assistant(R)  Series. The first product in this series was introduced in
1994 and uses "486"  based  technology  ("486  System")  that was  produced in a
limited quantity and is no longer being  manufactured.  Product  development has
been based on the  expectation  of the Company that  continued  improvements  in
software for operating  systems,  applications and speech  recognition  software
will require  continued  improvements in the performance and capabilities of the
Mobile Assistant Series. Based on that expectation, the Company

                                       -7-

<PAGE>



undertook a product  development  program  that  resulted in the second  product
offering  in  the  Mobile  Assistant(R)   Series,  which  was  introduced  on  a
preproduction  basis in  January  1997 and which  used  "586"  based  technology
("Mobile  Assistant(R) II System").  The Mobile  Assistant(R) II was replaced by
the third  system in this  product  development  program,  which was  introduced
during the third quarter of 1997 and uses a Pentium(R)  processor running at 133
MHZ ("133P System"). The 133P System is tailored for those customers who require
additional  processing  capacity  for their  applications,  such as a  body-worn
server for wireless LAN  applications,  and also for those  customers  using new
continuous  speech  recognition  or phonetic  recognition  software that require
higher processing  speeds,  such as that available from IBM Corporation,  Dragon
Systems,  Inc., and Texas  Instruments,  among others.  In the fourth quarter of
1997,  the  Company  announced  the fourth  system in this  product  development
program,  the Mobile  Assistant(R)  IV ("MA IV"),  which uses a Pentium  chipset
known as the "Tillamook" that runs at up to 266 MHZ.

        Additional  software  products are being  developed  and are planned for
development for use on the Mobile Assistant and other personal computers. In the
third quarter of 1997, the Company announced the introduction of linkAssist(TM),
a software  product which  provides a "windows"  style  graphical user interface
with speech  navigation  that  allows data stored in almost any format,  such as
commonly-used word processing,  spreadsheet, data base, graphics or media files,
to be linked to most any  application  without  altering the original  data. The
Company has  announced  webAssist(TM),  a software  product  that  allows  voice
navigation of HTML document  links such as those found on the World Wide Web and
intranets.

         The  Company  has  derived  its  revenues  from  sales  of  the  Mobile
Assistant(R) Series, less volume discounts, and from consulting services related
to the Mobile  Assistant(R),  application  software for the Mobile Assistant(R),
and other computer  platforms.  During the three months ended June 30, 1998, the
Company derived 99% of its revenues from sales of the Mobile  Assistant(R).  For
the three months ended June 30, 1997, the Company derived  approximately  89% of
its revenues from sales of the Mobile  Assistant(R) and 11% of its revenues from
consulting services and licensing  revenues.  In the future, the Company expects
to derive additional  revenues from the sale of software and additional optional
components of the Mobile Assistant(R) Series.  Revenues from sales to customers,
VARs and OEMs are  recognized  when products are shipped.  The  Company's  sales
agreements  generally do not involve any  significant  obligations  to customers
subsequent  to  delivery  except as  provided  in  separate  service  or support
agreements.  Revenues from future  software sales will be recognized at the time
the software  master is delivered in accordance  with  Statement of Position No.
91-1.  Cost of sales include the cost of components for the Mobile  Assistant(R)
Series, direct labor and overhead expense,  manuals,  diskettes and duplication,
packaging materials, assembly, paper goods and shipping.

         The  Company   intends  to  continue   expenditures   on  research  and
development  of  additional   hardware  and  software  products.   Research  and
development  activities  consist  primarily of personnel engaged in the research
and design of new products, test components, consulting fees and equipment costs
required to conduct the Company's development  activities.  Software development
costs are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility is established in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86 (SFAS No. 86,
Accounting for the Costs of Computer

                                       -8-

Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise  Marketed),  after which any additional
costs are  capitalized  until the  software  is ready for  release.  The Company
started limited shipments of its linkAssist(TM)  software late in the year ended
December 31, 1997,  but the costs  eligible for  capitalization  under SFAS were
immaterial during this period and were not capitalized. The Company expects such
costs to be immaterial  during the coming fiscal year.  Research and development
expenses  for the three  months  ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 were  $643,413 and
$564,398, respectively, none of which was capitalized.

         The  Company's  consolidated  financial  statements,  for  all  periods
presented,  include the results of operations of Tech  Virginia,  a wholly-owned
subsidiary that supplies  software and consulting  services to the United States
government  and  others.  In July  1996,  the  Company  exercised  its option to
purchase all of the capital stock of Tech Virginia and completed  payments under
this option during the year ended December 31, 1997. The consolidated  financial
statements  contain  eliminations  for all  material  transactions  between  the
Company and Tech Virginia for all periods presented.

         The  Company's  consolidated  financial  statements  do not  contain  a
provision for income tax expense due to the net operating  losses incurred since
inception.  Subject to  realization,  the Company has  generated  net  operating
losses that can be used to offset taxable  operating  income in the future.  The
Company's  future  operations,  if  profitable,  will be  subject  to income tax
expense  not  previously  incurred by the  Company  (see Note 9 to  Consolidated
Financial  Statements).   At  June  30,  1998,  the  Company  had  approximately
$16,000,000 of net operating loss carry forwards for federal income tax purposes
which expire in 2012.  The use of these carry forwards may be limited in any one
year under Internal  Revenue Code Section 382 if significant  ownership  changes
occur.

         The Company is aware of the computing issues associated with the coming
of the  millennium  (year 2000),  most  notably  whether  computer  systems will
properly  recognize  date sensitive  information  when the year changes to 2000.
Systems that do not properly recognize such information could generate erroneous
data or cause a system  to fail.  Based on  preliminary  investigations  and the
representations of several of its suppliers, the Company currently believes that
computers and software used in its  operations  and sold by the Company are year
2000  compliant.  The Company is working  with its  suppliers  and  customers to
either verify year 2000 compliance or identify and execute  appropriate  changes
to make such systems year 2000 compliant.  The Company believes that the cost of
completing  any  modifications  for year 2000  compliance to the systems used or
sold by the Company  will not be  material.  However,  there can be no assurance
that the  Company's  suppliers  will be correct in their  assertions  that their
products are year 2000  compliant or that the Company's  estimate of the cost of
systems  modifications  for year 2000  compliance  will prove  ultimately  to be
correct.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997

         Revenues.  Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1998 were
$231,473,  an  increase  of $91,441,  or 65.3%,  compared  to  $140,032  for the
corresponding  period in 1997.  Product revenues for the three months ended June
30, 1998 were $229,634,  an increase of $104,602 or 83.7%,  compared to $125,032
for the  corresponding  period in 1997. The increase in product revenues for the
three  months  ended June 30,  1998 was  related  to the  higher  number of 133P
Systems that were sold during that period,  compared to the higher number of 586
Systems  that were sold in the  corresponding  period  in 1997.  Consulting  and
license revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1998 were $1,839 a decrease
of $13,161 or 87.7%,  compared to $15,000 for the corresponding  period in 1997.
The  decrease in  consulting  and license  revenues was due to the lack of sales
activity under a License Agreement with Rockwell  International that was related
to the restructuring of Rockwell's operations.

         Cost of Sales.  The cost of goods sold for the three  months ended June
30, 1998 was $271,905, an increase of $13,676, or 5.3%, compared to $258,229 for
the   corresponding   period  in  1997.   The  cost  of  goods  sold   increased
commensurately  with the increase in product sales but was offset by a charge of
approximately  $120,000  in 1997 to  reduce  the  carrying  value of an  earlier
versions of the  computing  unit for Mobile  Assistant  II Systems to  estimated
market value.

         Sales and Marketing.  Sales and marketing expenses for the three months
ended June 30, 1998 were $656,042, a decrease of $73,613, or 10.1%,  compared to
$729,655 for the corresponding  period in 1997. The decrease was due to a change
in  compensation  structure  for sales  personnel  which  resulted in lower base
salaries,  a reduction in travel related expenses due to the  centralization  of
sales  staff,  and a decrease  in the use of outside  consultants  for sales and
marketing programs.

         General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses for the
three months ended June 30, 1998 were $966,199, an increase of $72,396, or 8.1%,
compared  with  $893,803 for the  corresponding  period in 1997.  This  increase
resulted  primarily  from an  increase  in  activities  related  to  discussions
regarding certain strategic partnerships and international operations.

         Research and  Development.  Research and  development  expenses for the
three  months  ended June 30, 1998 were  $643,413,  an  increase of $79,015,  or
14.0%,  compared  with  $564,398  for the  corresponding  period  in 1997.  This
increase is the primarily the result of increased  development  expenses for the
Mobile Assistant IV System.

         Interest  Income,  Net. Net interest  income for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 was $2,902, a decrease of $4,871,  or 62.7%,  compared with $7,773
for the  corresponding  period in 1997.  This  decrease is the result of reduced
interest  income from the lower  average cash balances in the three months ended
June 30, 1998 than for the corresponding period a year earlier,  which reflected
the interest income on proceeds from the Company's  Initial Public Offering that
was completed in July 1996.

         Net Loss  Attributable  to Common  Stock.  As a result  of the  factors
described above, the net loss  attributable to Common Stock for the three months
ended June 30, 1998 was $2,303,184,  an increase of $4,904, or 0.2%, compared to
$2,298,280  for the  corresponding  period in 1997.  Although  the  Company  was
subject to  taxation  during the three  months  ended June 30, 1998 and June 30,
1997, the Company  incurred net losses during these periods and no provision for
income taxes was made.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997

         Revenues.  Total  revenues  for the six months ended June 30, 1998 were
$358,700,  an  increase of  $108,242,  or 43.2%,  compared  to $250,458  for the
corresponding period in 1997. Product revenues for the six months ended June 30,
1998 were $356,861,  an increase of $136,403, or 61.9%, compared to $220,458 for
the corresponding period in 1997. The increase in product revenues for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 was related to the higher number of 133P Systems that
were sold  during  that  period,  compared  to the higher  number of 486 and 586
Systems  that were sold in the  corresponding  period in 1997.  The  decrease in
consulting  and license  revenues was due to the lack of sales  activity under a
license  agreement  with  Rockwell   International   that  was  related  to  the
restructuring of Rockwell's operations.

         Cost of Sales. The cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30,
1998 was $379,476,  a decrease of $30,314, or 7.4%, compared to $409,790 for the
corresponding  period in 1997. The cost of goods sold  increased  commensurately
with the  increase in sales but were offset by charges in 1997 of  approximately
$97,000 of parts for 586 Systems  that were  replaced  and written off, and by a
full  reserve for  obsolescence  of  approximately  $225,000  for the  remaining
computing  units used in 486 Systems that are believed by Company  management to
be  saleable,  but whose value is  uncertain  given  changes in  technology  and
advances in the market.

         Sales and marketing expenses.  Sales and marketing expenses for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 were  $1,151,147,  a decrease of $338,048,  or 22.7%,
compared to $1,489,195 for the  corresponding  period in 1997. This decrease was
due to a change in compensation  structure for sales personnel which resulted in
lower  base  salaries,  a  reduction  in  travel  related  expenses  due  to the
centralization of sales staff, and a decrease in the use of outside  consultants
for sales and marketing programs.

         General  and  administrative   expenses.   General  and  administrative
expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1998 were  $1,617,879,  a decrease of
$267,335, or 14.2%, compared to $1,885,214 for the corresponding period in 1997.
This  decrease  resulted  primarily  from a reduction in  personnel  and related
occupancy expenses,  along with a decrease in travel expenses. These were offset
by an increase in activities related to international operations.

         Research and development  expenses.  Research and development  expenses
for the six months ended June 30, 1998 were $1,010,769, an increase of $185,550,
or 15.5%,  compared to $1,196,319  for the  corresponding  period in 1997.  This
increase is the primarily the result of increased  development  expenses for the
Mobile Assistant IV System.

         Interest income, net. Net interest income for the six months ended June
30, 1998 was $8,066,  a decrease of $41,063,  or 83.6%,  compared to $49,129 for
the  corresponding  period in 1997.  This  decrease  is the  result  of  reduced
interest  income from the lower  average  cash  balances in the six months ended
June 30, 1998 than for the  corresponding  period in 1997,  which  reflected the
interest income on proceeds from the Company's  initial public offering that was
completed in July 1996.

         Net Loss  Attributable  to Common  Stock.  As a result  of the  factors
described  above,  the net  loss for the six  months  ended  June  30,  1998 was
$3,792,505,  a decrease of $888,426,  or 18.9%,  compared to $4,680,931  for the
corresponding  period in 1997.  Although  the  Company  was  subject to taxation
during the six  months  ended  June 30,  1998 and the six months  ended June 30,
1997, the Company  incurred net losses during these periods and no provision for
taxes was made.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Since  its  inception  until the  completion  of the IPO,  the  Company
financed its  operations  from the private sale of its  securities,  from vendor
credit and from  short-term  loans received from  management,  stockholders  and
others.

         From  October  1994 to August  1995 the  Company  raised  approximately
$1,243,000  from the private  sale of shares of Common Stock at $6.00 per share.
In November 1995, the Company raised $1,505,000 through the private placement of
convertible  debentures and in April 1996, the Company raised $1,000,000 through
a second  private  placement of  convertible  debentures.  The Company  received
approximately  $2,140,000  from these  financings  net of  offering  costs.  The
placement  fees in respect of these  financings  were  carried by the Company as
interest-bearing loans and were repaid

                                      -12-

<PAGE>



from the  proceeds  of the IPO and  realized  gross  proceeds  of  approximately
$13,280,000  and  net  proceeds  of  approximately   $10,840,000  after  related
expenses.

      On June 30, 1997, the Company  completed a $3 million private placement of
an aggregate  of 3,180 shares of the  Company's  Series A Preferred  Stock,  par
value $0.01 per share ("Series A Preferred Stock"),  and realized gross proceeds
of  $3,000,000  and net  proceeds  of  approximately  $2,762,000  after  related

and a holder of the Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to receive, if and when
declared by the  Company,  a dividend  equal to 5% of the stated value per share
per annum, payable in shares of Common Stock or in cash, payable upon conversion
of the Series A Preferred  Stock.  The Series A Preferred  provides  the Company
with  several  redemption  options  and  alternatively  allows for the  periodic
conversion  of portions of unredeemed  Series A Preferred  Stock over a one-year
period ending June 30, 1998.  Any Series A Preferred  Stock  outstanding on June
30, 1999 must be converted into Common Stock at that date.

         On  November  12,  1997,  the Company  completed  a $3 million  private
placement of an aggregate  of 3,000 shares of the  Company's  Series B Preferred
Stock,  par value $0.01 per share  ("Series B Preferred  Stock"),  and  realized
gross proceeds of $3,180,000 and net proceeds of approximately  $2,950,000 after
related  expenses.  On February  23,  1998,  the  Company  completed a follow-on
placement of its Series B Preferred  and realized  gross  proceeds of $1,000,000
and net proceeds of approximately  $990,000 after related expenses. The Series B
Preferred  Stock  has a stated  value of  $1,000  per  share and a holder of the
Series B Preferred  Stock is entitled  to receive,  if and when  declared by the
Company, a dividend equal to 4% of the stated value per share per annum, payable
in shares of Common Stock or in cash,  payable upon  conversion  of the Series B
Preferred  Stock into Common  Stock.  The Series B  Preferred  Stock into Common
Stock also provides the Company with several  redemption  options and allows for
the period  conversion of portions of unredeemed Series B Preferred Stock over a
five-month period from closing.

         In April  1998,  the  Company  entered  into an  equity  line of credit
agreement with institutional  investors who had formerly invested in the Company
in which the Company  received an initial gross amount of $1,000,000 in exchange
for Common Stock.  Under this line of equity the Company has the right,  but not
the obligation,  to obtain up to an additional $10,000,000 in a series of equity
drawdowns  based on terms and  conditions  specified  in the line of equity.  In
connection with this line of equity,  the Company issued warrants to purchase up
to 40,000  shares of stock at $1.76 and  20,000  shares of stock at $2.81 at any
time starting six months after closing and ending five years after closing.  The
placement agent for this transaction received a cash fee of 5% and 50,000 shares
of unregistered stock.

         In May 1998, the Company  completed a $750,000 private  placement of an
aggregate of 375 shares of the  Company's  Series C Preferred  Stock,  par value
$0.01 per share ("Series C Preferred  Stock") and 110,294 shares of Common Stock
with  institutional  investors  who had formerly  invested in the  Company.  The
Series C Preferred  Stock has a stated value of $1,000 per share and a holder of
the Series C Preferred Stock is entitled to receive, if and when declared by the
Company, a dividend equal to 5% of the stated value per share per annum, payable
in shares of Common Stock

                                      -13-

<PAGE>



or in cash,  payable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock. The Series
C Preferred Stock also provides the Company with several  redemption options and
allows for the periodic  conversion of portions of unredeemed Series C Preferred
Stock over a two-year  period ending May 15, 2000. Any Series C Preferred  Stock
outstanding on May 15, 2000 must be converted into Common Stock at that date.

         In June 1998, the Company completed a $1,000,000 private placement with
an institutional  investor who had formerly invested in the Company in which the
Company issued 153,846 unregistered shares of Common Stock.

         In June 1998,  the Company  amended  and  exercised a put option in the
aggregate  principal  amount  of  $3,000,000  under the  private  line of equity
agreement  mentioned  above. In connection with such action,  the Company issued
545,454  shares of Common  Stock.  Such  shares are subject to  restrictions  on
resale for a period of nine months and to repricing upon  occurrences of certain
conditions. In addition, the Company issued five-year warrants to purchase up to
300,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $5.25.

         For the six  months  ended  June  30,  1998,  the  Company's  operating
activities  used cash of  $3,366,073.  The net use of cash by operations for the
six months  ended June 30, 1998 was  primarily  the result of a  $3,792,505  net
loss. This was offset by a net decrease in inventories of $109,731, depreciation
and amortization of $152,185 and non-cash charges for tooling costs of $138,682.
Cash used for  investing  activities  for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was
$198,765  which included  $91,190  related to patents and $74,060 in capitalized
tooling  costs.  Proceeds from the Company's  financing  activities  for the six
months  ended  June 30,  1998  were  $6,627,195  which  primarily  consisted  of
$5,307,048 from the issuance of the Company's  Common Stock, net of related fees
and  $1,348,496  from  the  issuance  of the  Company's  Series  B and  Series C
Preferred  Stock,  net of related fees. As a result of the above,  cash and cash
equivalents  on hand  as of  June  30,  1998  was  $4,014,723,  an  increase  of
$3,062,357 from the $952,366 of cash and cash equivalents on hand as of December
31, 1997.

         For the six  months  ended  June  30,  1997,  the  Company's  operating
activities used cash of $4,986,509. The net use of cash for the six month period
ended June 30,  1997 was  primarily  the  result of a  $4,680,931  net loss,  an
increase in inventories of $295,792 largely related to the production of the 586
System and the Company's head mounted display,  an increase in prepaid and other
current assets of $184,312,  offset by depreciation  and  amortization  costs of
$160,547 and non-cash  compensation  costs of $125,488.  Cash used for investing
activities  for the six months ended June 30, 1997 was $747,144  which  included
$306,962 for the acquisition of property and equipment,  $284,294 in capitalized
tooling costs related to the production of the 586 System and the Company's head
mounted display,  and $155,188  related to patents.  Proceeds from the Company's
financing  activities  for the six months  ending June 30, 1997 were  $2,951,076
which  primarily  consisted  of  $2,785,000  from the  issuance  of its Series A
Preferred  Stock and deferred  placement  fees of  $215,000.  As a result of the
above,  cash  on hand as of  June  30,  1997,  was  $3,492,390,  a  decrease  of
$2,782,577  from  the  $6,274,967  of cash and  cash  equivalents  on hand as of
December 31, 1996.

         At June 30, 1998, the Company had no material  capital  commitments and
working capital of $4,492,263.

         On March 19,  1998,  Matrix  Corporation  filed a summons  against  the
Company in the United States District Court, Eastern District of North Carolina,
alleging  that:  Matrix has been  damaged by a purported  breach of the December
Agreement by the Company;  that the Company  should  return all goods shipped by
Matrix  under  both the June  Agreement  and the  December  Agreement;  that the
Company did not intend to comply with the December  Agreement  and therefore the
governing contract between the two entities should revert to the June Agreement.
In addition,  this  summons  requests  that any damages  incurred by Matrix as a
result of this purported  breach of contract be trebled.  On April 30, 1998, the
Company filed a motion in the same court to dismiss the complaints  contained in
the March 19, 1998  filing by Matrix.  While  there can be no  assurance  of the
outcome of this legal  proceeding,  the Company's  management  believes that the
claims by Matrix are  groundless  and that the  impact of this legal  proceeding
will not be adversely material to the Company's  operations.  The maximum amount
payable by the Company under the December  Agreement if Matrix performs  defined
tasks is  approximately  $250,000 and the maximum amount of inventory that could
be  assumed  by the  Company  under  the  December  Agreement  is  approximately
$600,000.

         The Company  anticipates  that its  working  capital  requirements  and
operating  expenses will increase as the Company expands production and sales of
the Mobile  Assistant(R),  and  expands its full  sales,  service and  marketing
functions,  and develops the support structure for these activities.  The timing
of increases  in personnel  and other  expenses,  the amount of working  capital
consumed  by  operations,  marketing  and  rollout  expenses  for the MA IV, and
competitive  pressures on gross  margins will impact the magnitude and timing of
the Company's cash requirements.  To meet working capital needs, the Company has
completed  a $10  million  equity  line of credit and  intends to use funds from
operations,  to  obtain  a  working  capital  line of  credit,  and/or  complete
additional  financings.  It is the  opinion  of the  Company's  management  that
additional  funding  arrangements  are readily  available to the Company and the
execution of any such arrangement will depend on timing,  market  conditions and
the final terms and conditions of such  arrangements.  Full production of the MA
IV model of the Mobile  Assistant(R)  is expected to begin in the quarter ending
December  31,  1998 and  receivables  from  sales of the MA IV are  expected  to
provide collateral for borrowing facilities at that point. Although there can be
no assurance that such facilities will be available, the Company intends to seek
to establish secured borrowing facilities at such time as appropriate collateral
is available.  The Company's management believes that the combination of cash on
hand, operating cash flow, and outside funding will provide sufficient liquidity
to meet the  Company's  cash  requirements  until at least March 1999.  However,
there can be no assurance that the Company can or will obtain  sufficient  funds
from  operations  or from a  working  capital  line of  credit  or from  closing
additional financings on terms acceptable to the Company.

                      Possible Impact on Near-Term Revenues

         The Company has agreements  with  third-party  suppliers to manufacture
and supply the body- worn computing unit, the HMD and the batteries for the 133P
and  the MA  IV.  Production  of the  computing  unit  for  the  133P  has  been
substantially curtailed pending the introduction of the MA IV

                                      -15-

<PAGE>



in the  fourth  quarter,  although  management  believes  that  it  can  restart
production to meet large orders.  As a result,  revenue growth is expected to be
modest  through the first three  quarters of the year ending  December 31, 1998,
until full-scale  production by these MA IV suppliers is started and these units
are sold in volume,  which is expected to begin in the quarter  ending  December
31, 1998.  In the event that the start of  full-scale  production is delayed for
any reason,  revenues  for the year ending  December  31, 1998 will be adversely
affected.

                         Possible Non-Cash Future Charge

         In  connection  with  the  Company's  IPO,  the  representative  of the
underwriters for the transaction (the  "Representative")  required the Company's
officers,  directors and certain other  stockholders  to deposit an aggregate of
1,800,000 shares of Common Stock into an escrow account (the "Escrowed Shares").
The  Escrowed  Shares  will  be  subject  to  release  to such  stockholders  in
increments  over a  three-year  period  only in the  event the  Company's  gross
revenues and earnings (loss) per share for the 12-month periods ending September
30,  1997,  1998 and 1999 meet or exceed  targets  which  have been  established
through negotiations with the Representative (the "Performance Targets"). If the
Performance Targets are not met in any of the relevant 12-month periods (and the
price of the Common  Stock has not met or exceeded the price  described  below),
the Escrowed  Shares will be returned to the Company in amounts  which have been
agreed  upon  between  the  Representative  and the  Company for each period and
canceled.  In  addition  to the  foregoing,  all then  Escrowed  Shares  will be
released  to the  stockholders  if the  closing  price  of the  Common  Stock as
reported  on  The  NASDAQ  SmallCap  Market  equals  or  exceeds  $11.00  for 25
consecutive  trading  days or 30 out of 35  consecutive  trading days during the
period  ending  September  30, 1999.  In the event any  Escrowed  Shares held by
officers,  employees or consultants  are released,  the  difference  between the
initial  offering  price  and the  market  value of such  shares  at the time of
release will be deemed to be additional  compensation expense to the Company. If
the price of the Common Stock at the time of any release of the Escrowed  Shares
is  greater  than the  value  of the  Common  Stock  at the time of the IPO,  an
earnings  charge  could  result  which  would  have the  effect of  reducing  or
eliminating  any  earnings  per share and could  have a  negative  effect on the
market price for the Common  Stock.  The  earnings per share target  calculation
will be based on the average number of shares issued and outstanding during each
period, but excluding shares issued pursuant to the  Representative's  option to
purchase units of Common Stock and Warrants issued at the Company's IPO ("Unit")
at a price of $9.075 per Unit (165% of the offering price of the Units) during a
period  of  four  years  commencing  one  year  from  the  closing  of the  IPO,
extraordinary  items, or compensation  expense charged to the Company related to
the release of the Escrowed Shares.

         The  Company's  gross  revenues and  allowable  losses did not meet the
Performance  Targets for the 12-month period ending  September 30, 1997, and the
stock price did not meet the levels  described  above by that time.  Pursuant to
the terms of the escrow agreement, 300,000 of the Escrowed Shares were canceled,
resulting in no earnings  impact and a reduction in shares  outstanding  at that
time of approximately 2.1%. Given the expected start of full-scale production of
the MA IV in the quarter  ending  December 31, 1998,  the  Company's  management
believes  that it is likely that the  Company's  gross  revenues  and  allowable
losses will not meet the  Performance  Targets for the 12- month  period  ending
September 30, 1998. Accordingly, the release of the escrow shares for this

                                      -16-

<PAGE>



period is only  likely if the  stock  price  equals  or  exceeds  $11.00  for 25
consecutive  trading  days or 30 out of 35  consecutive  trading  days  prior to
September  30, 1998.  If  conditions  are not met for release from escrow,  then
750,000  shares of stock will be returned to the Company on  September  30, 1998
and canceled,  resulting in no earnings impact and a commensurately lower number
of outstanding shares.

         Since  the  Company  has  reported  losses,  the loss per share for the
Company is  calculated  using  outstanding  shares less shares held in escrow to
avoid antidilution.  Therefore,  the cancellation of shares from escrow does not
affect the reported loss per share.

Analysis (the "MD&A") are not historical  facts or information and certain other

______________________ (the "Investor"), is entitled, upon the terms and subject
to the conditions  hereinafter  set forth,  at any time on or after July 2, 1998
and on or prior to July 2, 2001 (the "Termination Date") but not thereafter,  to

incorporated  in the State of Delaware  (the  "Company"),  one hundred and fifty

$0.01 per share of the Company (the "Common  Stock").  The purchase price of one

to $5.25.  The Exercise  Price and the number of shares for which the Warrant is
exercisable  shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein.  This Warrant is
being issued in  connection  with the  Agreement of Amendment  and  Modification
dated  July 2, 1998  (the  "Agreement")  to the  Private  Equity  Line Of Credit
Agreement  dated  as of  April  13,  1998,  and  is  subject  to its  terms  and
conditions.  In the event of any conflict  between the terms of this Warrant and
the Agreement, the Agreement shall control.

subject  to  compliance  with  applicable  laws,  this  Warrant  and all  rights
hereunder are transferable,  in whole or in part, at the office or agency of the
Company  by the holder  hereof in person or by duly  authorized  attorney,  upon

                  2.  Authorization  of Shares.  The Company  covenants that all
shares  of  Common  Stock  which  may be  issued  upon the  exercise  of  rights
represented  by this Warrant will,  upon exercise of the rights  represented  by
this Warrant, be duly authorized,  validly issued,  fully paid and nonassessable
and free from all taxes,  liens and  charges  in  respect  of the issue  thereof
(other than taxes in respect of any transfer  occurring  contemporaneously  with
such issue).

                 3.  Exercise of Warrant. Except as provided in Section 4 below,
exercise of the purchase  rights  represented by this Warrant may be made at any
time or times,  before the close of business on the  Termination  Date,  or such
earlier date on which this Warrant may terminate as provided in this Warrant, by
the  surrender  of this Warrant and the Notice of Exercise  Form annexed  hereto
duly  executed,  at the office of the Company (or such other office or agency of
the Company as it may  designate by notice in writing to the  registered  holder
hereof at the address of such holder  appearing on the books of the Company) and
upon payment of the Exercise  Price of the shares thereby  purchased;  whereupon
the holder of this Warrant  shall be entitled to receive a  certificate  for the
number of shares of Common Stock so purchased. Certificates for shares purchased
hereunder shall be delivered to the holder hereof within three (3) business days
after the date on which this Warrant  shall have been  exercised  as  aforesaid.
Payment  of the  Exercise  Price  of the  shares  may be by  certified  check or
cashier's  check or by wire transfer to an account  designated by the Company in
an amount  equal to the  Exercise  Price  multiplied  by the  number of  Warrant
Shares.

                  4. No  Fractional  Shares or Scrip.  No  fractional  shares or
scrip  representing  fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant.

                  5. Charges,  Taxes and Expenses.  Issuance of certificates for
shares of Common Stock upon the  exercise of this Warrant  shall be made without
charge to the holder  hereof for any issue or transfer  tax or other  incidental
expense in respect of the issuance of such  certificate,  all of which taxes and
expenses shall be paid by the Company,  and such certificates shall be issued in
the  name of the  holder  of this  Warrant  or in such  name or  names as may be
directed by the holder of this  Warrant;  provided,  however,  that in the event
certificates  for  shares of Common  Stock are to be issued in a name other than
the name of the  holder of this  Warrant,  this  Warrant  when  surrendered  for
exercise  shall be  accompanied  by the  Assignment  Form  attached  hereto duly
executed by the holder  hereof;  and  provided  further,  that upon any transfer
involved in the  issuance or delivery of any  certificates  for shares of Common
Stock,  the Company may require,  as a condition  thereto,  the payment of a sum
sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.

                  6.   Closing  of  Books.   The  Company  will  not  close  its
shareholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of
this Warrant for a period of time in excess of five (5) trading days per year.

                  7. No Rights as Shareholder until Exercise.  This Warrant does
not  entitle  the  holder  hereof  to any  voting  rights  or other  rights as a
shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise thereof.  Upon the surrender of
this Warrant and the payment of the aggregate Exercise Price, the Warrant Shares
so  purchased  shall be and be deemed to be issued to such  holder as the record
owner of such  shares  as of the close of  business  on the later of the date of
such surrender or payment.

                  8.  Assignment  and  Transfer of Warrant.  This Warrant may be
assigned by the surrender of this Warrant and the Assignment Form annexed hereto
duly  executed at the office of the  Company (or such other  office or agency of
the Company as it may  designate by notice in writing to the  registered  holder
hereof at the address of such holder appearing on the books of the Company).

                  9. Loss,  Theft,  Destruction  or Mutilation  of Warrant.  The
Company  represents  and  warrants  that upon receipt by the Company of evidence
reasonably  satisfactory to it of the loss, theft,  destruction or mutilation of
this  Warrant  certificate  or any stock  certificate  relating  to the  Warrant
Shares,  and in case of loss,  theft or  destruction,  of  indemnity or security
reasonably  satisfactory  to it, and upon  surrender  and  cancellation  of such
Warrant or stock certificate,  if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a
new  Warrant  or  stock   certificate  of  like  tenor  and  dated  as  of  such
cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

                  10.  Saturdays,   Sundays,  Holidays,  etc.  If  the  last  or
appointed  day for the  taking  of any  action  or the  expiration  of any right
required or granted herein shall be a Saturday,  Sunday or a legal holiday, then
such action may be taken or such right may be exercised  on the next  succeeding
day not a legal holiday.

                  11.  Effect of Certain Events.

                  (a) If at any  time  the  Company  proposes  (i)  to  sell  or
otherwise  convey  all or  substantially  all of its  assets or (ii) to effect a
transaction  (by merger or otherwise) in which more than 50% of the voting power
of the Company is disposed of (collectively, a "Sale or Merger Transaction"), in
which the  consideration  to be  received  by the  Company  or its  shareholders
consists solely of cash, then the Warrant shall terminate if the Warrant has not
been exercised by the effective date of such transaction, the Company shall give
the holder of this Warrant thirty (30) days' notice of such  termination  and of
the proposed effective date of the transaction.

                  (b) In case the  Company  shall  at any time  effect a sale or
merger  transaction in which the  consideration to be received by the Company or
its shareholders  consists in part of consideration  other than cash, the holder
of this Warrant shall have the right thereafter to purchase, by exercise of this
Warrant and payment of the aggregate  Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
to such action,  the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property
which it would have owned or have been  entitled to receive  after the happening
of such transaction had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto.

                  12.  Adjustments  of  Exercise  Price and  Number  of  Warrant
Shares. The number and kind of securities  purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment  from time to time
upon the happening of any of the following.

                  (a) In the event the  Company  elects to pay the  Initial  Put
Repricing  Amount to the  Investor in lieu of issuing the Initial Put  Repricing
Shares,  the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the then current market price of
the Common Stock.

                  (b) In case the Company shall (i) declare or pay a dividend in
shares  of Common  Stock or make a  distribution  in  shares of Common  Stock to
holders of its outstanding Common

                                      -24-

<PAGE>



Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding  shares of Common Stock, (iii) combine its
outstanding  shares of Common  Stock  into a smaller  number of shares of Common
Stock or (iv) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the
Common Stock,  then the number of Warrant  Shares  purchasable  upon exercise of
this Warrant  immediately  prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the holder of
this Warrant shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant  Shares
or other  securities  of the  Company  which he would  have  owned or have  been
entitled to receive had such Warrant been  exercised  in advance  thereof.  Upon
each  such  adjustment  of the  kind  and  number  of  Warrant  Shares  or other
securities of the Company which are  purchasable  hereunder,  the holder of this
Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to purchase the number of Warrant Shares or
other  securities  resulting from such  adjustment at an Exercise Price per such
Warrant Share or other security  obtained by  multiplying  the Exercise Price in
effect  immediately  prior to such  adjustment  by the number of Warrant  Shares
purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing by
the number of Warrant Shares or other  securities of the Company  resulting from
such  adjustment.  An adjustment  made pursuant to this  paragraph  shall become
effective  immediately after the effective date of such event retroactive to the
record date, if any, for such event.

                  13.  Voluntary  Adjustment by the Company.  The Company may at
any time during the term of this Warrant, reduce the then current Exercise Price
to any  amount  and for any period of time  deemed  appropriate  by the Board of
Directors of the Company.

                  14.  Notice of  Adjustment.  Whenever  the  number of  Warrant
Shares or number or kind of securities or other  property  purchasable  upon the
exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted,  as herein provided,
the Company shall promptly mail by registered or certified mail,  return receipt
requested,  to  the  holder  of  this  Warrant  notice  of  such  adjustment  or
adjustments  setting forth the number of Warrant Shares (and other securities or
property)  purchasable  upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price
of such Warrant Shares (and other securities or property) after such adjustment,
setting  forth a brief  statement of the facts  requiring  such  adjustment  and
setting forth the computation by which such adjustment was made. Such notice, in
absence of manifest  error,  shall be conclusive  evidence of the correctness of
such adjustment.

                  15. Authorized  Shares.  The Company covenants that during the
period the Warrant is  outstanding,  it will  reserve  from its  authorized  and
unissued Common Stock a sufficient  number of shares to provide for the issuance
of the  Warrant  Shares  upon the  exercise of any  purchase  rights  under this
Warrant.  The Company further  covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall
constitute  full  authority  to its  officers  who are charged  with the duty of
executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for
the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase  rights under this Warrant.
The Company will take all such  reasonable  action as may be necessary to assure
that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided  herein without  violation of
any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the NASDAQ Small Cap
Stock Market or any domestic securities exchange upon which the Common Stock may
be listed.

                  16.  Call/Forced  Exercise.  The Company,  at its option,  may
redeem this  Warrant for $0.01 per  Warrant  Share by giving the Holder  written
notice  (the "Call  Notice")  at any time if the closing Bid Price of the Common
Stock of the Company is greater  than one hundred  fifty  (150%)  percent of the
Exercise Price for twenty (20)  consecutive  Trading Days. To be effective,  the
Call Notice must be given within three (3) Trading Days after the aforementioned
twenty day period. The

                                      -25-

<PAGE>



rights and privileges  granted  pursuant to this Warrant shall terminate  thirty
(30) days  after the Call  Notice is sent to the  Holder if the  warrant  is not
exercised during that period. In the event the Warrants are not exercised during
this period the Company  will remit to the Holder  $0.01 per Warrant  Share upon
the Holder tendering to the Company the expired Warrant certificate.

                  17.      Miscellaneous.

                  (a) Issue Date;  Jurisdiction.  The provisions of this Warrant
shall be  construed  and shall be given effect in all respects as if it had been
issued and  delivered by the Company on the date hereof.  This Warrant  shall be
binding  upon any  successors  or assigns of the  Company.  This  Warrant  shall
constitute a contract  under the laws of New York without regard to its conflict
of law, principles or rules, and be subject to arbitration pursuant to the terms
set forth in the Agreement.

                  (b) Restrictions.  The holder acknowledges and agrees that the
Warrant  Shares  shall be deemed to be  "restricted  securities"  and may not be
sold,  offered,  pledged,  transferred or otherwise disposed of before September
30,  1998 and may only be  sold,  offered,  pledged,  transferred  or  otherwise
disposed  of after such date  pursuant  to an  exemption  from the  registration
requirements  under the Securities Act. The holder hereof  acknowledges that the
Warrant Shares  acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant,  if not  registered,
will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.
Each  certificate  representing  the  Warrant  Shares  issued to the Holder upon
exercise will bear the following legend:

         "THE SECURITIES  EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
         UNDER THE U.S.  SECURITIES  ACT OF 1933,  AS AMENDED  (THE  "SECURITIES
         ACT"), OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE  SECURITIES LAWS AND HAVE BEEN ISSUED IN
         RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM THE  REGISTRATION  REQUIREMENTS  OF THE
         SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH OTHER  SECURITIES  LAWS.  NEITHER THIS SECURITY
         NOR ANY  INTEREST  OR  PARTICIPATION  HEREIN  MAY BE  REOFFERED,  SOLD,
         ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED,  PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED,  HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE
         DISPOSED OF,  EXCEPT  PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE  REGISTRATION  STATEMENT
         UNDER THE  SECURITIES  ACT OR PURSUANT TO A TRANSACTION  THAT IS EXEMPT
         FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, SUCH REGISTRATION".

                  (c) Modification  and Waiver.  This Warrant and any provisions
hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in
writing signed by the party against which enforcement of the same is sought.

                  (d) Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or
permitted to be given or delivered to the holders hereof by the Company shall be
delivered or shall be sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid,  to
each such  holder at its  address as shown on the books of the Company or to the

                                                                   Exhibit 10.1

                 Form of Agreement of Amendment and Modification

         Agreement of Amendment and Modification made as of July 1, 1998, by and
among Xybernaut  Corporation,  a Delaware  corporation (the "Company"),  Balmore
Funds, S.A. and Austost Anstalt Schaan (collectively, the "Investors").

         Capitalized  terms used herein and not defined  shall have the meanings
given to them in the Private Equity Line of Credit  Agreement  dated as of April
13,  1998 by and  among  the  Company,  the  Investors  and  Settondown  Capital
International Ltd. (the "Line of Credit Agreement").

                                   Witnesseth:

         Whereas,  the Company  and the  Investors  executed  the Line of Credit
Agreement  pursuant  to which the  Investors  agreed,  among  other  things,  to
purchase,  from time to time, up to $11,000,000 (the "Aggregate Purchase Price")
of the Common Stock of the Company;

         Whereas,  pursuant  to the  Line of  Credit  Agreement,  the  Investors
purchased  securities  of  the  Company  for  an  aggregate  purchase  price  of
$1,000,000;

         Whereas, notwithstanding the limitations on the exercise of Put Options
by the  Company set forth in Section  2.1 of the Line of Credit  Agreement,  the
Company, by execution hereof, hereby exercises, and the Investors hereby accept,
a Put Option in the aggregate  principal  amount of $3,000,000 (the "Initial Put
Option"); and

         Whereas, the Company and the Investors desire to amend certain terms of
the Line of Credit  Agreement to provide for the terms pertaining to the Initial
Put Option.

         Now,  therefore,  in consideration of the mutual covenants,  conditions
and promises contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

         1. Section 1.20 of the Line of Credit  Agreement is hereby  modified by
adding the following text at the end thereof:

                  "The Maximum Put Amount set forth in the table above shall not
be applicable to the exercise by the Company of the Initial Put Option."

         2. Section 2.1 of the Line of Credit  Agreement  is hereby  modified by
adding the following subsection (c):

                  "(c)     Initial Put Option.  The Company hereby exercises a 
Put Option in the principal  aggregate  amount of  $3,000,000  (the "Initial Put
Option") and the Investors hereby accept the




                                       -2-

<PAGE>

exercise  of such  Initial  Put  Option.  The  number of shares of Common  Stock
issuable  upon  exercise  of such  Initial  Put Option  shall be  calculated  by
dividing  $3,000,000 by $5.50,  the purchase price per share of Common Stock for
the Initial Put Option.

                  (i) As  additional  consideration  for the  acceptance  of the
         Initial Put Option,  the Investors shall receive  non-transferable  and
         non-tradeable warrants (the "Initial Put Warrants") to purchase a total
         of 300,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company. Such warrants,  which
         shall be exercisable  upon  issuance,  shall have a term of 3 years and
         shall be exercisable at a price per share equal to the closing price on
         the trading day  immediately  preceding  the closing of the Initial Put
         Option hereunder.

                  (ii) The shares of Common Stock  issuable upon exercise of the
         Initial  Put  Option  and the  Initial  Put  Warrants  may not be sold,
         transferred or otherwise disposed of before September 30, 1998.

                  (iii) Notwithstanding Section 2.9 to the contrary,  commencing
         on September  30, 1998,  and monthly  thereafter  (each an "Initial Put
         Repricing  Date"),  one-sixth of the shares of Common Stock issued upon
         exercise  of the Initial Put Option  shall be subject to  repricing  on
         each Initial Put  Repricing  Date.  If the closing  price of the Common
         Stock  on the  trading  date  immediately  preceding  the  Initial  Put
         Repricing Date is less than $7.20 per share, the shares of Common Stock
         subject to repricing  shall be repriced at the lowest closing bid price
         of the Common Stock for the 30 days preceding the Initial Put Repricing
         Date (the  "Initial Put Reset  Price").  The Company shall issue to the
         Investors  such number of shares (the "Initial Put  Repricing  Shares")
         equal to the  difference  between  (a) the  quotient of 500,000 and the
         Initial  Put Reset  Price  and (b) the  number  of  shares  subject  to
         repricing.  No additional shares of Common Stock shall be issued if the
         Initial Put Reset Price is equal to or greater than $5.50.

                  (iv) If the  closing  price  on the  trading  day  immediately
         preceding  the  applicable  Initial Put  Repricing  Date (the  "Closing
         Price") or the Initial Put Reset Price of the Common Stock is less than
         $5.00 per share on the Initial Put Repricing  Date,  the Company at its
         option may pay to the  Investors an amount,  in cash,  equal to 105% of
         the  Closing  Price to be issued to the  Investors  (the  "Initial  Put
         Repricing  Amount") in lieu of issuing the Initial Put Repricing Shares
         (which  Initial Put Repricing  Amount shall be multiplied by the number
         of Initial Put  Repricing  Shares).  If the  Company  elects to pay the
         Initial Put  Repricing  Amount to the  Investors in lieu of issuing the
         Initial Put Repricing  Shares the Company shall notify the Investors of
         that election on the  applicable  Initial Put Repricing  Date,  and the
         exercise price of the Initial Put Warrants shall be reduced to the then
         Closing  Price of the Common  Stock.  If the Company  elects to pay the
         current  Initial Put Repricing  Amount but fails to pay the Initial Put
         Repricing  Amount  within  five  (5)  business  days of  notifying  the
         Investors of such  election,  the Company will forfeit the right to pay
         the Initial Put




                                       -3-

<PAGE>



         Repricing Amount in cash at any time in the future. If the Company does
         not make the  election  to pay the Initial Put  Repricing  Amount,  the
         Company shall deliver the Initial Put Repricing Shares to the Investors
         within seven (7) business days of the applicable  Initial Put Repricing
         Date.  However, in the event the Company is unable to issue Initial Put
         Repricing Shares which have been included in a registration  statement,
         which at that time is  effective,  the Company must pay the Initial Put
         Repricing amount in cash as set forth herein.

                  (v) The shares of Common  Stock  issued at the  closing of the
         Initial Put Options and the Initial Put  Repricing  Shares are included
         under the current effective  registration statement filed in connection
         with the equity line (the "Current Registration Statement"). The shares
         issuable  upon  exercise  of the  Initial  Put  Warrants  shall  not be
         registered  under  the  Current  Registration  Statement,  but  will be
         afforded piggyback registration rights.

                  (vi) The  Investors  agree not to enter  into any put  option,
         short position or other similar  position with respect to the shares of
         Common  Stock  issued at the  closing of the  Initial Put Option or the
         Initial Put Repricing Shares.

                  (vii)  Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of Section  2.3,  the
         Investors  shall wire  $3,000,000  for the Common Stock  issuable  upon
         exercise of the Initial Put Option to Parker  Chapin  Flattau & Klimpl,
         LLP,  who will  serve as  escrow  agent  for the  receipt  of  executed
         documents,  original  securities and the purchase price for the Initial
         Put Option only.  The wire  instructions  for Parker  Chapin  Flattau &
         Klimpl,  LLP are as follows:  CITIBANK N.A., 153 East 53rd Street,  New
         York,  New York 10043,  Account Name:  Parker Chapin  Flattau & Klimpl,
         LLP, Attorney Trust Account,  Account No.: 37432544,  Citibank ABA No.:
         021000089, for International: Swift No. CITI-US 33."

                  3. The Company  represents  and warrants to the Investors that
the  Form  S-3   Registration   Statement  (also  referred  to  as  the  Current
Registration  Statement  in Section 2(v) above) of the Company that was declared
effective  on June 11,  1998,  registered  1,045,296  shares of Common  Stock in
respect of the Initial Put Option and pursuant to Rule 416 promulgated under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, an indeterminate  number of shares of Common
Stock to cover Initial Put Repricing Shares.

                  4.  This  Agreement  of  Amendment  and  Modification  may  be
executed in counterparts, all of which shall be deemed to be duplicate originals
of the same document.

                  5. Except for this  Agreement of Amendment  and  Modification,
all the terms,  conditions and covenants of the Line of Credit  Agreement  shall
remain in full force and effect.
