                        (A Development Stage Enterprise)
              Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                                  June 30, 1999
                                   (Unaudited)


Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial  information  and  pursuant  to  the  rules  and  regulations  of  the
Securities and Exchange Commission.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted  accounting  principles
for  complete  financial  statements.  For  further  information,  refer  to the
financial  statements  and footnotes  thereto  included in the Company's  annual
report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998.

In the opinion of management,  the unaudited  condensed  consolidated  financial
statements  contain all adjustments  considered  necessary to present fairly the
Company's  financial  position at June 30, 1999,  results of operations  for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999, and the period from inception
(March 3, 1993) to June 30,  1999,  and the cash flows for the six months  ended
June 30, 1998 and 1999,  and the period from  inception  (March 3, 1993) to June
30, 1999.  The results for the period ended June 30, 1999,  are not  necessarily
indicative  of the  results to be  expected  for the entire  fiscal  year ending
December 31, 1999.

These   unaudited   condensed    consolidated   financial   statements   reflect
reclassifications  of certain amounts in prior periods to be consistent with the
presentation of the current period. Such  reclassifications had no effect on net
loss.

Note 2 - Discontinued Operation

On June 15, 1998 (measurement date), the Company's Board of Directors decided to
discontinue the operations of Sierra Vista Entertainment, Inc. ("Sierra Vista"),
its  wholly-owned   subsidiary  and  entertainment   segment  of  the  business.
Accordingly,  Sierra Vista is accounted for as a  discontinued  operation in the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

The  liabilities  in  excess  of net  assets of  Sierra  Vista  included  in the
accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheet as of June  30,  1999,  consisted  of
accounts payable and accrued expenses of approximately $63,000.

Sierra Vista has never generated any revenues.

Note 3 - Subsequent Event

On July 14, 1999, the Company borrowed  $500,000 from an investor in the form of
a note. The note bears interest at 13% and is due on demand. In conjunction with
this note,  the  Company  issued  five year  warrants  to purchase up to 250,000
shares  of  Common  Stock at $.55 per  share to the note  holder,  and five year
warrants to purchase up to 100,000  shares of Common  Stock at $.44 per share to
two finders.

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

With the exception of historical facts stated herein,  the matters  discussed in
this  report  are  "forward   looking"   statements   that  involve   risks  and
uncertainties  that  could  cause  actual  results  to  differ  materially  from
projected  results.  Such  "forward  looking"  statements  include,  but are not
necessarily  limited  to,  statements  regarding  anticipated  levels  of future
revenues and earnings from  operations of the Company.  Factors that could cause
actual  results to differ  materially  include,  in  addition  to other  factors
identified  in this  report,  lack of  revenues,  substantial  losses,  need for
additional  capital  and limited  operating  history,  and other  risks  factors
detailed in the Company's  Securities and Exchange  Commission  ("SEC")  filings
including the risk factors set forth in the Company's  Registration Statement on
Form SB-2, SEC File No.  333-45875 and "Certain  Considerations"  section in the
Company's  Form 10-KSB for the year ended  December  31,  1998.  Readers of this
report are cautioned not to put undue reliance on "forward  looking"  statements
which  are,  by  their  nature,  uncertain  as  reliable  indicators  of  future
performance.  The Company  disclaims any intent or obligation to publicly update
these  "forward  looking"  statements,  whether as a result of new  information,
future events, or otherwise.

Revenues

Revenues  were  approximately  $61,000  and  $97,000 for the three and six month
periods ended June 30, 1999, as compared to  approximately  zero and $40,000 for
the same  periods in 1998.  Revenue  in 1999 was from the sale of the  Company's
standard transmission and authoring products,  mostly to resellers for their use
as  demonstration  units.  Revenue  in 1998 was from the sale of  pre-production
boards and systems.

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold increased from approximately $5,000 and $22,000 for the three
and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 to  approximately  $50,000 and $79,000
for the same periods in 1999. The product  margins for all periods  presented in
these statements are not necessarily  indicative of those that the Company might
experience at such time, if any, that standard  products  begin to be shipped in
full- production quantities for installation by end-users.

Research and development

Research and  development  expense  declined from  approximately  $1,342,000 and
$2,765,000  in  the  three  and  six  month  periods  ended  June  30,  1998  to
approximately  $367,000 and  $736,000 in the same periods in 1999.  In June 1998
management took a number of steps to greatly reduce the Company's expenses which
included  the  layoff  of  approximately   half  of  the  Company's   employees,
termination of a number of product  development  efforts,  and  concentration on
those  products  deemed most  valuable  and closest to market.  All  significant
research and development  expense categories  decreased sharply between 1998 and
1999,  with  the  largest  declines  in  payroll  costs,   consulting   charges,
depreciation, and supplies.

Selling, general and administrative

Selling,   general  and  administrative   expense  declined  from  approximately
$4,626,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1998, to approximately $1,629,000 in
the same period in 1999, a reduction  of about 65%. For the quarters  ended June
30, 1998 and 1999,  selling,  general and administrative  expense declined about
66%, from approximately  $2,611,000 to approximately  $884,000.  These decreases
resulted  from the  Company's  expense  reductions  taken in June  1998 and were
reflected  in  all  major  expense  categories  including  payroll,   legal  and
accounting, consulting, travel, and trade shows.


<PAGE>8

Impairment loss on property and equipment

In June 1998, the management of the Company decided to terminate the single chip
encoder product and to focus the Company's research and development efforts into
projects with more  immediate  prospects for revenues.  Certain  portions of the
Company's  property and equipment were specific to the chip development  project
and with the termination of the project, this property and equipment was written
down to its realizable  value.  The amount of this write-down was  approximately
$937,000. There was no similar loss experienced in the three- month period ended
June 30, 1999.

Interest expense, net of interest income

Interest expense was approximately  $1,217,000 in the second quarter of 1999. Of
this, approximately $814,000 was imputed from the warrants issued in conjunction
with demand  notes  issued in the  quarter,  approximately  $214,000  related to
penalties   accrued  for  failure  to  register  common  stock   underlying  the
convertible feature in the convertible debentures and the balance related to the
stated interest on the Company's debentures and notes.

The decline from interest expense of approximately  $2,473,000 recognized in the
same  quarter  of  1998  relates   principally  to  amortization  of  beneficial
conversion feature and deferred offering costs which approximated  $1,463,000 in
the second quarter of 1998, but was not present in the same quarter of 1999. The
difference between the interest expense of approximately  $3,449,000  recognized
in the first six  months of 1998 and of  approximately  $1,876,000  for the same
period of 1999 relates mostly to the same factor.


Loss  from  continuing  operations  before  income  tax  expense,   discontinued
operations, and extraordinary item

Loss from continuing operations decreased from approximately  $12,022,000 in the
six months ended June 30, 1998, to approximately  $4,225,000 for the same period
in 1999 and from  approximately  $7,629,000  in the  second  quarter  of 1998 to
approximately  $2,457,000 in the second quarter of 1999. These decreases reflect
the steps  taken in June 1998 to reduce  headcount  and other  expenses,  and to
focus the  Company on a limited  number of specific  products  or projects  that
management deemed closest to market.

Extraordinary item

During  the  first  half  of  1999,  the  Company  was  able to  settle  certain
outstanding trade payables and other liabilities at discounts. The net amount of
the debt  relieved was  approximately  $57,000 and $180,000 in the three and six
month periods ended June 30, 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since  inception,  the Company has funded its operations  primarily  through the
sale of stock and  placement of debt.  On June 30, 1999,  the Company had a cash
balance of approximately  $54,000 and a working capital deficit of approximately
$14,672,000.  This  compares  with cash of  approximately  $34,000 and a working
capital deficit of approximately  $11,851,000 at December 31, 1998. The decrease
in working  capital  results  from the loss for the first  half of 1999,  net of
imputed interest expense charged to warrants and to additional  paid-in capital.



<PAGE>9



On January 15, 1999, the Company issued Convertible  Debentures in the aggregate
principal amount of $750,000.  The Debentures  accrue interest at the rate of 7%
per annum and are  convertible  into shares of the  Company's  Common Stock at a
conversion  price equal to the lesser of (i) 125% of the five-day  average share
price at the time of  issuance  and (ii) 80% for  conversions  prior to 120 days
after  issuance,  77.5% for  conversions  120-150 days after  issuance,  and 75%
thereafter. The Debentures have a term of five years, expiring January 15, 2004,
and are secured by all of the assets of the Company.  As part of the issuance of
the Debentures,  the Company issued to the Debenture holders five-year  warrants
to purchase up to 187,500 shares of Common Stock at $.50 per share.

From March through July 1999,  the Company  borrowed a total of $2,450,000  from
the investor who had purchased the majority of the  Debentures  evidenced in the
form of five notes.  The notes bear  interest  at 13% and are due on demand.  In
conjunction  with this funding,  the Company issued the holder of the notes five
year  warrants to purchase up to  1,000,000  shares of Common  Stock at $.60 per
share and 250,000 shares at $.55 per share.

In conjunction  with the sale of the Debentures in January 1999 and of the notes
in March  through  July 1999,  the  Company  issued  warrants  to purchase up to
640,000  shares of the  Company's  common stock at prices  ranging from $0.11 to
$0.84 per share to two finders.

Management projects that the Company will not be able to internally generate the
cash that will be required to fund its operations and to pay off the liabilities
incurred in prior  periods for at least the  balance of 1999.  Accordingly,  the
Company  will  require  additional  funding to  finance  its  operations.  Since
December 1997,  the Company has financed its operations  through the issuance of
convertible  debentures  and  demand  notes  to two  investment  funds  that are
affiliated  with each other,  but no assurance can be given that these investors
will continue to provide funds to the Company.  In this event,  the Company will
need to secure  additional  financing from alternative  sources.  The Company is
already actively pursuing alternative funding sources. There can be no assurance
that additional funding will be available on terms favorable to the Company.

Impact of the Year 2000 Issue

The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer  programs  being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the Company's,  or
its  suppliers'  and  customers'  computer  programs  that  have  date-sensitive
software  may  recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year
2000.  This  could  result  in  system  failures  or   miscalculations   causing
disruptions of operations  including,  among other things, a temporary inability
to process  transactions,  send invoices,  or engage in similar normal  business
activities.

The Company's operations are now based on software applications that the Company
believes to be Year 2000  compliant.  This included recent purchase of Year 2000
compliant  versions of software for its computer,  security,  and communications
systems, as necessary.  The Company has not yet identified any Year 2000 problem
but will  continue to monitor the issues.  No  assurances  can be given that the
Year 2000 problem will not occur with respect to the Company's computer systems.

The Company believes that its products are Year 2000 compliant.  The Company has
initiated  communications with significant  suppliers to determine the extent to
which  those  third  parties'  failure to remedy  Year 2000  issues in their own
operation or in their products might materially effect the Company's  operations
or products. The Company has not received any indication from its suppliers that
the Year 2000 Issue may materially  effect their ability to conduct  business or


<PAGE>10


supply Year 2000  compliant  products to the Company.  In addition,  the Company
continues  to test its products  and the third party  software it purchases  for
Year 2000 compliance.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings.

The Company  has a number of overdue  accounts  payable to vendors.  A number of
these vendors have filed suit against the Company to enforce collection. To date
the Company has been able to reach  accommodation  with the creditors on most of
these  collection  actions,  but as of July 16, 1999,  three of these collection
actions  seeking  to  collect  a total  of  approximately  $62,000  had not been
settled.  There can be no  assurance  that the  suits  that have been or will be
filed,  or the terms  that  might be  reached  for  settlement  will not  create
material hardship to the Company in the future.  Management anticipates that the
number  of  such  suits  might  increase  over  time  as  the  Company's  unpaid
obligations  age  further if more  vendors  conclude  that  legal  action is the
prudent course to pursue for collection.

Item 2.  Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds. - Not Applicable

Item 3.  Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

The Company was not in compliance  with certain  covenants of the December 1997,
June 1998,  August  1998,  and January  1999  Debenture  and Warrant  agreements
including,  but not limited to,  payment of  interest,  timely  registration  of
common stock underlying debt conversion rights, and common stock trading volume.
Consequently,  these  debentures  have been  classified  as current  debt in the
Company's financial statements.

</TABLE>

Item 5.  Other Information.

To provide for working  capital since  December  1997, the Company has issued an
aggregate  face value of  $9,750,000 of  convertible  debentures to two investor
funds that are affiliated with each other. At June 30, 1999 the average price at
which these convertible  debentures could be converted into the Company's Common
Stock was  approximately  $.23 per share.  If these two  investors had exercised
their conversion rights at that time they would have owned  approximately 64% of
the outstanding  Common Stock of the Company,  giving them effective  control of
the Company. Because the price at which most of these convertible debentures can
be converted  into common stock changes in concert with  movements in the market
price of the Company's common stock, the actual percentage of control that these
two funds  might  acquire  at any given  time  could be greater or less than the
figure determined as of June 30, 1999.

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, InnovaCom, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws
of the Nevada and having a principal  place of business at 3400  Garrett  Drive,
Santa Clara,  California 95054 (the "Company")  promises to pay to JNC Strategic
Fund Ltd.,  or  registered  assigns (the  "Holder"),  the principal sum of Seven
Hundred Fifty Thousand  Dollars  ($750,000),  on or prior to January 14, 2004 or
such earlier date as this Debenture (the Debenture") is required to be repaid as
provided  hereunder (the  "Maturity  Date") and to pay interest to the Holder on
the principal sum at the rate of 7% per annum,  payable  quarterly in arrears on
March  31,  June 30,  September  30 and  December  31 of each  year  while  this
Debenture  is  outstanding  and on each  Conversion  Date (as defined in Section
4(a)(i)),  commencing  on the earlier to occur of a Conversion  Date (as defined
herein) for such  principal  amount and March 31,  1999.  Interest  shall accrue
daily  commencing  on the  Original  Issue Date (as  defined in Section 6) until
payment in full of the  principal  sum,  together  with all  accrued  and unpaid
interest  and other  amounts  which may  become  due  hereunder,  has been made.
Interest  shall be  calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and for the actual
number  of days  elapsed.  Interest  hereunder  will be paid to the  Person  (as
defined in Section 6) in whose name this  Debenture (or one or more  predecessor
Debentures) is registered on the records of the Company  regarding  registration
and transfers of this Debenture (the "Debenture Register"). All overdue, accrued
and unpaid  interest and other amounts due hereunder  shall bear interest at the
rate of 15% per annum (to  accrue  daily)  from the date  such  interest  is due
hereunder  through and  including  the date of payment.  The  principal  of, and
interest on, this  Debenture  are payable in such coin or currency of the United
States of  America as at the time of  payment  is legal  tender  for  payment of
public and private  debts,  at the address of the Holder last  appearing  on the
Debenture  Register,  except that interest due on the principal  amount (but not
overdue  interest)  may, at the  Company's  option,  be paid in shares of Common
Stock (as defined in Section 6) calculated  based upon the Conversion  Price (as
defined  below) on the date such  interest  was due.  All amounts due  hereunder
other than such interest shall be paid in cash.  Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary  contained herein,  the Company may not issue shares of Common Stock in


<PAGE>2



payment  of  interest  on the  principal  amount if: (i) the number of shares of
Common Stock at the time  authorized,  unissued and unreserved for all purposes,
or held as treasury stock,  is insufficient to pay interest  hereunder in shares
of Common Stock;  (ii) such shares are not either registered for resale pursuant
to an Underlying Securities  Registration Statement (as defined in Section 6) or
freely  transferable  without  volume  restrictions   pursuant  to  Rule  144(k)
promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"),
as determined  by counsel to the Company  pursuant to a written  opinion  letter
addressed  and in form and  substance  acceptable to the Holder and the transfer
agent for such shares;  or (iii) such shares are not Actively Traded (as defined
herein) (or listed or quoted for trading on the American Stock Exchange,  Nasdaq
National Market, Nasdaq SmallCap Market or The New York Stock Exchange,  and any
other  exchange on which the Common  Stock is then listed for trading  (each,  a
"Subsequent Market")). As used herein, "Actively Traded" shall mean that (a) the
average value of the shares of Common Stock traded on the OTC Bulletin  Board in
each week  measured  over a four (4) week  period on a rolling  basis  equals or
exceeds  $50,000 and (b) there are no fewer than ten (10) market makers actively
making a market in the Common Stock.

     This Debenture is subject to the following additional provisions:

          Section  1. This  Debenture  is  exchangeable  for an equal  aggregate
     principal amount of Debentures of different  authorized  denominations,  as
     requested by the Holder  surrendering the same but shall not be issuable in
     denominations  of less than integral  multiplies of Fifty Thousand  Dollars
     ($50,000)  unless  such amount  represents  the full  principal  balance of
     Debentures  outstanding to such Holder.  No service charge will be made for
     such registration of transfer or exchange.

          Section  2.  This   Debenture  has  been  issued  subject  to  certain
     investment representations of the original Holder set forth in the Purchase
     Agreement and may be transferred  or exchanged only in compliance  with the
     Purchase Agreement. Prior to due presentment to the Company for transfer of
     this  Debenture,  the  Company  and any agent of the  Company may treat the
     person in whose name this  Debenture is duly  registered  on the  Debenture
     Register as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment as herein
     provided  and for all other  purposes,  whether  or not this  Debenture  is
     overdue,  and  neither  the Company nor any such agent shall be affected by
     notice to the contrary.

          Section 3. Events of Default.

          (a) "Event of Default",  wherever  used  herein,  means any one of the
     following  events (whatever the reason and whether it shall be voluntary or
     involuntary  or effected by operation  of law or pursuant to any  judgment,
     decree or order of any  court,  or any  order,  rule or  regulation  of any
     administrative or governmental body):

               (i) any default in the payment of the principal  of,  interest on
          or liquidated damages in respect of, this Debenture, free of any claim
          of  subordination,  as and when the same shall  become due and payable
          (whether  on  the  applicable   quarterly  interest  payment  date,  a
          Conversion Date or the Maturity Date or by acceleration or otherwise);


<PAGE>3


               (ii) the  Company  shall fail to  observe  or  perform  any other
          covenant,  agreement or warranty contained in, or otherwise commit any
          breach of,  this  Debenture,  the  Purchase  Agreement,  the  Security
          Agreement or the Registration  Rights  Agreement,  and such failure or
          breach shall not have been  remedied  within 10 days after the date on
          which notice of such failure or breach shall have been given;

               (iii) the Company or any of its subsidiaries  shall commence,  or
          there shall be commenced  against the Company or any such subsidiary a
          case under any  applicable  bankruptcy  or  insolvency  laws as now or
          hereafter in effect or any successor thereto, or the Company commences
          any other proceeding under any reorganization, arrangement, adjustment
          of debt, relief of debtors, dissolution,  insolvency or liquidation or
          similar law of any  jurisdiction  whether now or  hereafter  in effect
          relating  to the  Company  or  any  subsidiary  thereof  or  there  is

          bankruptcy,  insolvency or other proceeding which remains  undismissed
          for a period of 60 days; or the Company or any  subsidiary  thereof is
          adjudicated  insolvent  or  bankrupt;  or any order of relief or other
          order approving any such case or proceeding is entered; or the Company
          or any subsidiary  thereof suffers any appointment of any custodian or
          the  like  for it or  any  substantial  part  of  its  property  which
          continues  undischarged  or unstayed  for a period of 60 days;  or the
          Company or any subsidiary  thereof makes a general  assignment for the
          benefit of creditors; or the Company shall fail to pay, or shall state
          that it is  unable  to pay,  or  shall be  unable  to pay,  its  debts
          generally as they become due; or the Company or any subsidiary thereof
          shall  call a meeting  of its  creditors  with a view to  arranging  a
          composition  or  adjustment  of  its  debts;  or  the  Company  or any
          subsidiary  thereof  shall by any act or failure to act  indicate  its
          consent to, approval of or  acquiescence  in any of the foregoing;  or
          any  corporate  or  other  action  is  taken  by  the  Company  or any
          subsidiary thereof for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing;

               (iv) the Company  shall default in any of its  obligations  under
          any mortgage, credit agreement or other facility,  indenture agreement
          or other instrument under which there may be issued, or by which there
          may be secured or  evidenced  any  indebtedness  of the  Company in an
          amount exceeding one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), whether such
          indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created and such default
          shall result in such  indebtedness  becoming or being declared due and
          payable prior to the date on which it would  otherwise  become due and
          payable;

               (v) the Common Stock shall fail to be Actively  Traded or fail to
          be listed or quoted for trading on any Subsequent  Market if after the
          Original  Issue  Date the Common  Stock  shall be listed or quoted for
          trading on any such Subsequent Market, or if the Common Stock shall be
          suspended from trading thereon without being actively traded, relisted
          or having such suspension  lifted,  as the case may be, within fifteen
          (15) days;

               (vi) the Company shall be a party to any merger or  consolidation
          pursuant to which the Company shall not be the  surviving  entity (or,
          if the Company is the  surviving  entity,  the Company  shall issue or
          sell to  another  Person,  or group  thereof,  in excess of 50% of the
          Common  Stock) or shall  dispose  of all or  substantially  all of its


<PAGE>4



          assets in one or more  transactions,  or shall  redeem  more than a de
          minimis  number of shares of Common Stock (other than  redemptions  of
          Underlying  Shares);

               (vii) an Underlying Securities  Registration  Statement shall not
          have been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission
          (the  "Commission")  on or prior to the 180th  day after the  Original
          Issue Date;

               (viii)  an Event  (as  hereinafter  defined)  shall not have been
          cured to the  satisfaction  of the Holder prior to the  expiration  of
          thirty (30) days from the Event Date (as hereinafter defined) relating
          thereto (other than an Event resulting from a failure of an Underlying
          Securities  Registration  Statement  to be declared  effective  by the
          Commission on or prior to the 90th day after the Original Issue Date);
          or

               (ix) the Company shall fail to deliver certificates to the Holder
          prior to the 15th day after the  Conversion  Date  pursuant to Section
          4(b).

          (b) If  any  Event  of  Default  occurs  and is  continuing  the  full
     principal amount of this Debenture (and, at the Holder's option,  all other
     Debentures  then held by such  Holder),  together  with  interest and other
     amounts owing in respect thereof, to the date of acceleration, to be, shall
     become,  immediately due and payable in cash. The aggregate  amount payable
     upon an Event of Default in respect of the Debentures shall be equal to the
     sum of (i) the Mandatory  Prepayment  Amount (as defined in Section 6) plus
     (ii) the product of (A) the number of  Underlying  Shares issued in respect
     of  conversions  or as payment of interest  hereunder  and then held by the
     Holder  and (B) the Per  Share  Market  Value  on the  date  prepayment  is
     demanded  or the date  the full  prepayment  price  is paid,  whichever  is
     greater.  The Holder need not provide  and the  Company  hereby  waives any
     presentment,  demand,  protest or other notice of any kind,  and the Holder
     may immediately and without  expiration of any grace period enforce any and
     all of its rights and remedies  hereunder and all other remedies  available
     to it under  applicable law. Such declaration may be rescinded and annulled
     by Holder at any time prior to payment  hereunder.  No such  rescission  or
     annulment shall affect any subsequent  Event of Default or impair any right
     consequent thereon.

          Section 4. Conversion.

          (a)(i) This Debenture shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock
     at the option of the Holder,  in whole or in part at any time and from time
     to time, from and after the 100th day following the Original Issue Date and
     prior to the close of business on the Maturity  Date.  The number of shares
     of Common Stock as shall be issuable upon a conversion  hereunder  shall be
     determined by dividing the outstanding  principal  amount of this Debenture
     to be  converted,  plus all accrued  but unpaid  interest  thereon,  by the
     Conversion  Price (as  defined  below),  each as subject to  adjustment  as
     provided  hereunder.  The Holder shall effect  conversions by  surrendering
     this  Debenture (or such portions  thereof) to be converted,  together with
     the form of conversion  notice  attached hereto as Exhibit A (a "Conversion
     Notice") to the Company. Each Conversion Notice shall specify the principal
     amount of Debentures to be converted and the date on which such  conversion
     is to be effected,  which date may not be prior to the date such Conversion
     Notice is deemed to have been delivered hereunder (a "Conversion Date"). If

<PAGE>5



     no Conversion Date is specified in a Conversion Notice, the Conversion Date
     shall  be  the  date  that  such  Conversion  Notice  is  deemed  delivered
     hereunder.  Subject to Section 4(b) hereof,  each Conversion  Notice,  once
     given,  shall be irrevocable.  If the Holder is converting less than all of
     the principal amount represented by the Debenture(s) tendered by the Holder
     with the Conversion Notice, or if a conversion hereunder cannot be effected
     in full for any reason,  the Company  shall  honor such  conversion  to the
     extent permissible  hereunder and shall promptly deliver to such Holder (in
     the manner and within the time set forth in Section  4(b)) a new  Debenture
     for such principal amount as has not been converted.

          (ii) Certain Conversion Restrictions.

               (A) The Holder  agrees not to  convert  Debentures  to the extent
          such  conversion  would result in the Holder  beneficially  owning (as
          determined  in  accordance  with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and
          the rules  thereunder)  in excess  of  4.999% of the then  issued  and
          outstanding  shares of Common Stock,  including  shares  issuable upon
          conversion of the Debentures held by such Holder after  application of
          this Section.  The Holder shall have the sole authority and obligation
          to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section applies
          and,  to the extent  that the Holder  determines  that the  limitation
          contained  in  this  Section  applies,   the  determination  of  which
          Debentures  are  convertible  shall be in the sole  discretion  of the
          Holder.  The provisions of this Section may be waived by a Holder (but
          only as to itself and not to any other  Holder)  upon not less than 75
          days prior notice to the Company (in which case, the Holder shall make
          such filings with the Commission,  including under Rule 13D or 13G, as
          are required by applicable  law). Other Holders shall be unaffected by
          any such waiver.

               (B) The Holder  agrees not to  convert  Debentures  to the extent
          such  conversion  would result in the Holder  beneficially  owning (as
          determined  in  accordance  with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and
          the rules  thereunder)  in excess  of  9.999% of the then  issued  and
          outstanding  shares of Common Stock,  including  shares  issuable upon
          conversion of the Debentures held by such Holder after  application of
          this Section.  The Holder shall have the sole authority and obligation
          to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section applies
          and,  to the extent  that the Holder  determines  that the  limitation
          contained  in  this  Section  applies,   the  determination  of  which
          Debentures  are  convertible  shall be in the sole  discretion  of the
          Holder.  The provisions of this Section may be waived by a Holder (but
          only as to itself and not to any other  Holder)  upon not less than 75
          days prior notice to the Company. Other Holders shall be unaffected by
          any such waiver.

          (b) Not later than three Trading Days after the  Conversion  Date, the
     Company will deliver to the Holder (i) a certificate or certificates  which
     shall be free of restrictive  legends and trading  restrictions (other than
     those  required by Section 3.1(b) of the Purchase  Agreement)  representing
     the number of shares of the Common Stock being acquired upon the conversion
     of Debentures, (ii) Debentures in a principal amount equal to the principal
     amount of Debentures not converted; (iii) a bank check in the amount of all
     accrued and unpaid  interest  (if the Company has elected and is  permitted
     hereunder to pay accrued interest in cash), together with all other amounts
     then due and payable in  accordance  with the terms  hereof,  in respect of
     Debentures  tendered for  conversion and (iv) if the Company has elected to
     pay accrued  interest in shares of the Common  Stock,  certificates,  which
     shall be free of restrictive  legends and trading  restrictions (other than


<PAGE>6



     those required by Section 3.1(b) of the Purchase  Agreement),  representing
     such number of shares of the Common Stock as equals such  interest  divided
     by the  Conversion  Price  calculated  on the  Conversion  Date;  provided,
     however,  that the Company  shall not be  obligated  to issue  certificates
     evidencing the shares of the Common Stock  issuable upon  conversion of the
     principal   amount  of  Debentures   until  Debentures  are  delivered  for
     conversion  to the Company or the Holder  notifies  the  Company  that such
     Debenture has been mutilated,  lost,  stolen or destroyed and complies with
     Section 9 hereof.  If in the case of any Conversion Notice such certificate
     or certificates,  including for purposes  hereof,  any shares of the Common
     Stock to be issued on the Conversion  Date on account of accrued but unpaid
     interest  hereunder,  are not  delivered to or as directed by the Holder by
     the third Trading Day after a Conversion Date, the Holder shall be entitled
     by written  notice to the  Company at any time on or before its  receipt of
     such  certificate or  certificates  thereafter,  to rescind such conversion
     (whether  subject  to a Holder or a Company  Conversion  Notice),  in which
     event the Company  shall  immediately  return the  Debentures  tendered for
     conversion.  If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder such certificate
     or certificates  pursuant to this Section,  including for purposes  hereof,
     any  shares of the  Common  Stock to be issued  on the  Conversion  Date on
     account  of  accrued  but  unpaid  interest  hereunder,  prior to the fifth
     Trading  Day after  the  Conversion  Date,  the  Company  shall pay to such
     Holder,  in cash,  as liquidated  damages and not as a penalty,  $1,500 for
     each day  thereafter  until the Company  delivers such  certificates  (such
     amount  shall be also be due for each  Trading  Day after the date that the
     Holder may rescind such conversion until such date as the Holder shall have
     received the return of the principal amount of Debentures  relating to such
     rescission). If the Company fails to deliver to the Holder such certificate
     or  certificates  pursuant to this Section  prior to the 15th day after the
     Conversion  Date,  the Company shall,  upon notice from the Holder,  prepay
     such portion of the  aggregate of the principal  amount of Debentures  then
     held  by such  Holder,  as  requested  by such  Holder,  for the  Mandatory
     Prepayment  Amount,  in cash.  If any portion of the  Mandatory  Prepayment
     Amount  pursuant to this Section is not paid within seven days after notice
     therefor is deemed  delivered  hereunder,  the Company will pay interest on
     the  Mandatory  Prepayment  Amount at a rate of 15% per  annum  (to  accrue
     daily),  in cash to such Holder,  accruing  from such seventh day until the
     Mandatory  Prepayment Amount, plus all accrued interest thereon, is paid in
     full.

          (c)(i) The conversion price (the "Conversion  Price") in effect on any
     Conversion Date shall be the lesser of (A) $.1275 (the "Initial  Conversion
     Price")  and (B) the  Applicable  Percentage  (as  defined  in  Section  6)
     multiplied  by the Average  Price (as  defined  herein)  calculated  on the
     Conversion   Date;   provided,   that  the  five  (5)  Trading  Day  period
     contemplated  in the  Average  Price  shall be  extended  for the number of
     Trading Days, if any,  during such period in which (A) the shares of Common
     Stock are not Actively  Traded or suspended or delisted from trading on any
     Subsequent Market, (B) after the date declared effective by the Commission,
     the Underlying Securities  Registration Statement is not effective,  or (C)
     after  the  date  declared  effective  by the  Commission,  the  Prospectus
     included in the  Underlying  Securities  Registration  Statement may not be
     used by the Holder for the resale of Underlying Shares, provided,  further,
     that if (a) an Underlying Securities Registration Statement is not filed on
     or  prior  to the  Filing  Date  (as  defined  in the  Registration  Rights
     Agreement),  or (b) the Company fails to file with the Commission a request
     for  acceleration  in  accordance  with Rule 12d1-2  promulgated  under the
     Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,  as amended,  within five (5) days of the
     date that the  Company is  notified  (orally or in  writing,  whichever  is
     earlier   by  the  Commission  that  an  Underlying Securities Registration

<PAGE>7



     Statement  will not be  "reviewed"  or is not subject to further  review or
     comment by the Commission,  or (c) the Underlying  Securities  Registration
     Statement is not declared  effective by the  Commission  on or prior to the
     Effectiveness Date (as defined in the Registration  Rights  Agreement),  or
     (d) such  Underlying  Securities  Registration  Statement is filed with and
     declared  effective by the Commission but thereafter ceases to be effective
     as  to  all  Registrable  Securities  (as  such  term  is  defined  in  the
     Registration  Rights  Agreement) for more than twenty (20) days at any time
     prior to the  expiration  of the  "Effectiveness  Period"  (as such term as
     defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), without being succeeded by a
     subsequent  Underlying  Securities  Registration  Statement  filed with and
     declared  effective  by the  Commission  within  twenty  (20) days,  or (e)
     trading in the Common  Stock  shall  fail to be  Actively  Traded or if the
     Common Stock shall be suspended or delisted from trading on any  Subsequent
     Market for any reason  for more than five (5) days,  or (f) the  conversion
     rights of the Holders of Debentures  are suspended for any reason or if the
     Holder  is  not  permitted  to  resell  Registrable  Securities  under  the
     Underlying Securities  Registration  Statement,  or (g) an amendment to the
     Underlying  Securities  Registration  Statement is not filed by the Company
     with the Commission within fifteen (15) days of the Commission's  notifying
     the Company  that such  amendment  is required in order for the  Underlying
     Securities  Registration  Statement  to be  declared  effective  (any  such
     failure  being  referred to as an "Event," and for purposes of clauses (a),
     (c) and (f) the date on which such Event occurs, or for purposes of clauses
     (b) and (e) the date on which such five (5) day period is exceeded,  or for
     purposes  of clause  (d) the date  which  such  twenty  (20) day  period is
     exceeded, or for purposes of clause (g) the date on which such fifteen (15)
     day period is exceeded,  being  referred to as "Event  Date"),  the Company
     shall pay, in cash,  as  liquidated  damages  and not as a penalty,  on the
     Event Date and on the first day of each month thereafter until the Event is
     cured,   1.5%  of  the  aggregate   principal  amount  of  Debentures  then
     outstanding  pro rata to the  holders  thereof  in  accordance  with  their
     holdings  thereof.  The  provisions  of this Section are not  exclusive and
     shall in no way  limit the  Company's  obligations  under the  Registration
     Rights Agreement.


          (ii) If the Company, at any time while any Debentures are outstanding,
     (a)  shall  pay a  stock  dividend  or  otherwise  make a  distribution  or
     distributions  on shares of its Common  Stock or any other equity or equity
     equivalent  securities payable in shares of the Common Stock, (b) subdivide
     outstanding  shares of the Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (c)
     combine  outstanding  shares of the Common  Stock into a smaller  number of
     shares, or (d) issue by  reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any
     shares of capital stock of the Company,  the Initial Conversion Price shall
     be multiplied  by a fraction of which the numerator  shall be the number of
     shares of the Common Stock (excluding  treasury shares, if any) outstanding
     before  such  event and of which  the  denominator  shall be the  number of
     shares of the Common Stock  outstanding  after such event.  Any  adjustment
     made pursuant to this Section shall become effective  immediately after the
     record date for the determination of stockholders  entitled to receive such
     dividend or distribution and shall become effective  immediately  after the
     effective   date   in  the   case   of  a   subdivision,   combination   or
     re-classification.

          (iii)  If  the  Company,   at  any  time  while  any   Debentures  are
     outstanding,  shall  issue  rights or warrants to all holders of the Common
     Stock (and not to Holders of Debentures) entitling them to subscribe for or
     purchase  shares of the Common Stock at a price per share less than the Per
     Share Market Value of the Common Stock at the record date mentioned  below,


<PAGE>8



     the Initial  Conversion  Price shall be multiplied by a fraction,  of which
     the  denominator  shall  be  the  number  of  shares  of the  Common  Stock
     (excluding  treasury shares, if any) outstanding on the date of issuance of
     such rights or warrants plus the number of additional  shares of the Common
     Stock  offered for  subscription  or purchase,  and of which the  numerator
     shall be the  number of  shares of the  Common  Stock  (excluding  treasury
     shares,  if any)  outstanding  on the date of  issuance  of such  rights or
     warrants  plus the number of shares which the aggregate  offering  price of
     the total  number of shares so  offered  would  purchase  at such Per Share
     Market  Value.  Such  adjustment  shall be made  whenever  such  rights  or
     warrants  are issued,  and shall  become  effective  immediately  after the
     record date for the determination of stockholders  entitled to receive such
     rights or warrants. However, upon the expiration of any right or warrant to
     purchase  shares of the Common Stock the  issuance of which  resulted in an
     adjustment in the Initial Conversion Price pursuant to this Section, if any
     such right or warrant shall expire and shall not have been  exercised,  the
     Initial   Conversion  Price  shall  immediately  upon  such  expiration  be
     recomputed and effective  immediately  upon such expiration be increased to
     the price which it would have been (but reflecting any other adjustments in
     the  Initial  Conversion  Price made  pursuant  to the  provisions  of this
     Section 4 after the issuance of such rights or warrants) had the adjustment
     of the Initial  Conversion  Price made upon the  issuance of such rights or
     warrants  been made on the basis of offering for  subscription  or purchase
     only that number of shares of the Common Stock actually  purchased upon the
     exercise of such rights or warrants actually exercised.

          (iv) If the Company,  at any time while  Debentures  are  outstanding,
     shall  distribute to all holders of the Common Stock (and not to Holders of
     Debentures)  evidences of its  indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants
     to  subscribe  for or  purchase  any  security,  then in each such case the
     Initial   Conversion   Price  at  which   Debentures  shall  thereafter  be
     convertible shall be determined by multiplying the Initial Conversion Price
     in effect  immediately  prior to the record date fixed for determination of
     stockholders  entitled to receive such  distribution by a fraction of which
     the  denominator  shall be the Per Share  Market  Value of the Common Stock
     determined  as of  the  record  date  mentioned  above,  and of  which  the
     numerator  shall be such Per Share Market Value of the Common Stock on such
     record  date less the then fair  market  value at such  record  date of the
     portion  of  such  assets  or  evidence  of   indebtedness  so  distributed
     applicable  to one  outstanding  share of the Common Stock as determined by
     the Board of Directors in good faith; provided,  however, that in the event
     of a  distribution  exceeding  ten  percent  (10%) of the net assets of the
     Company,  such  fair  market  value  shall be  determined  by a  nationally
     recognized or major regional investment banking firm or firm of independent
     certified public accountants of recognized  standing (which may be the firm
     that  regularly  examines  the  financial  statements  of the  Company) (an
     "Appraiser")  selected  in good  faith  by the  holders  of a  majority  in
     interest of Debentures then outstanding;  and provided,  further,  that the
     Company,  after receipt of the  determination  by such Appraiser shall have
     the right to select an additional  Appraiser,  in good faith, in which case
     the fair market  value shall be equal to the average of the  determinations
     by each such Appraiser.  In either case the adjustments  shall be described
     in a  statement  provided to the  holders of  Debentures  of the portion of
     assets or evidences of  indebtedness  so distributed  or such  subscription
     rights  applicable to one share of the Common Stock.  Such adjustment shall
     be made whenever any such  distribution is made and shall become  effective
     immediately after the record date mentioned above.

          (v)  In  case  of any  reclassification  of the  Common  Stock  or any
     compulsory  share exchange  pursuant to which the Common Stock is converted
     into other securities, cash or property, the Holder of this Debenture shall
     have  the  right  thereafter  to,  at its  option,  (A)  convert  the  then
     outstanding principal amount, together with all accrued but unpaid interest
     and any other  amounts then owing  hereunder  in respect of this  Debenture
     only  into the  shares of stock and  other  securities,  cash and  property
     receivable  upon or  deemed  to be  held by  holders  of the  Common  Stock
     following such  reclassification or share exchange,  and the Holders of the
     Debentures  shall be  entitled  upon such event to receive  such  amount of
     securities,  cash or  property  as the  shares of the  Common  Stock of the
     Company into which the then outstanding principal amount, together with all
     accrued but unpaid  interest and any other amounts then owing  hereunder in
     respect of this Debenture  could have been converted  immediately  prior to
     such  reclassification  or share  exchange  would have been entitled or (B)
     require the Company to prepay, from funds legally available therefor at the

     of Debentures, plus all interest and other amounts due and payable thereon,
     at  a  price  determined  in  accordance  with  Section  3(b).  The  entire
     prepayment  price shall be paid in cash.  This  provision  shall  similarly
     apply to successive reclassifications or share exchanges.

          (vi)  All  calculations  under  this  Section  4 shall  be made to the
     nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.

          (vii) Whenever the Initial  Conversion  Price is adjusted  pursuant to
     any of Section  4(c)(ii) - (v),  the Company  shall  promptly  mail to each
     Holder of Debentures a notice  setting forth the Initial  Conversion  Price
     after such  adjustment  and setting  forth a brief  statement  of the facts
     requiring such adjustment.

               A.   the  Company   shall   declare  a  dividend  (or  any  other

                    dividend on or a redemption of its Common Stock; or

               C.   the Company  shall  authorize the granting to all holders of
                    the Common  Stock  rights or  warrants to  subscribe  for or
                    purchase any shares of capital  stock of any class or of any
                    rights; or

               D.   the  approval of any  stockholders  of the Company  shall be
                    required  in  connection  with any  reclassification  of the
                    Common Stock of the Company,  any consolidation or merger to
                    which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or
                    substantially  all of the  assets  of  the  Company,  of any

                    converted into other securities, cash or property; or


<PAGE>10

               E.   the Company shall  authorize  the  voluntary or  involuntary
                    dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the
                    Company;

     then  the  Company  shall  cause  to be  filed  at each  office  or  agency
     maintained for the purpose of conversion of the Debentures, and shall cause
     to be mailed to the Holders of Debentures  at their last  addresses as they
     shall appear upon the stock books of the Company, at least 30 calendar days
     prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter  specified,  a
     notice  stating  (x) the  date on which a  record  is to be  taken  for the
     purpose of such dividend, distribution,  redemption, rights or warrants, or
     if a record is not to be taken,  the date as of which  the  holders  of the
     Common  Stock of record to be  entitled  to such  dividend,  distributions,
     redemption,  rights or  warrants  are to be  determined  or (y) the date on
     which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share
     exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which
     it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled
     to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities,  cash or other
     property  deliverable upon such  reclassification,  consolidation,  merger,
     sale, transfer or share exchange;  provided,  however,  that the failure to
     mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing  thereof shall not
     affect the  validity of the  corporate  action  required to be specified in
     such notice.  Holders are entitled to convert  Debentures during the 30-day
     period  commencing  the date of such  notice to the  effective  date of the
     event triggering such notice.

          (d) The Company  covenants  that it will at all times reserve and keep
     available  out of its  authorized  and unissued  shares of the Common Stock
     solely for the purpose of issuance upon  conversion of the  Debentures  and
     payment of interest on the Debentures,  each as herein provided,  free from
     preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of persons
     other than the  Holders,  not less than such number of shares of the Common
     Stock as shall (subject to any additional requirements of the Company as to
     reservation of such shares set forth in the Purchase Agreement) be issuable
     (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 4(c)) upon
     the conversion of the  outstanding  principal  amount of the Debentures and
     payment of interest hereunder. The Company covenants that all shares of the
     Common  Stock that shall be so  issuable  shall,  upon  issue,  be duly and
     validly  authorized,  issued  and fully  paid,  nonassessable  and,  if the
     Underlying  Securities  Registration  Statement has been declared effective
     under the Securities Act, freely tradeable.

          (e) Upon a conversion  hereunder  the Company shall not be required to
     issue stock  certificates  representing  fractions  of shares of the Common
     Stock,  but may if otherwise  permitted,  make a cash payment in respect of
     any final  fraction of a share based on the Per Share  Market Value at such
     time. If the Company elects not, or is unable, to make such a cash payment,
     the holder shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the final fraction of a
     share, one whole share of Common Stock.

          (f) The  issuance of  certificates  for shares of the Common  Stock on
     conversion of the  Debentures  shall be made without  charge to the Holders
     thereof for any  documentary  stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in
     respect of the issue or delivery  of such  certificate,  provided  that the
     Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect
     of any  transfer  involved  in  the  issuance  and  delivery  of  any  such
     certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder of such
     Debentures  so converted  and the Company shall not be required to issue or
     deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting



<PAGE>11


     the issuance  thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax
     or shall have  established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax
     has been paid.

          (g) Any and all notices or other  communications  or  deliveries to be
     provided by the Holders of the  Debentures  hereunder,  including,  without
     limitation,  any  Conversion  Notice,  shall be in  writing  and  delivered
     personally, by facsimile, sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier
     service or sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, addressed

     purposes  by  notice  to the  Holders  delivered  in  accordance  with this
     Section.  Any and all notices or other  communications  or deliveries to be

     address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company, or if no such
     facsimile  telephone number or address  appears,  at the principal place of
     business of the holder.  Any notice or other  communication  or  deliveries
     hereunder  shall be deemed  given and  effective on the earliest of (i) the
     date of  transmission,  if such notice or  communication  is delivered  via
     facsimile at the facsimile telephone number specified in this Section prior

     Section 5. Optional Prepayment.

          (a) The  Company  shall have the right,  exercisable  at any time upon
     thirty  (30)  Trading  Days  prior  written  notice to the  Holders  of the
     Debentures to be prepaid (the  "Optional  Prepayment  Notice") given at any
     time  after  the 90th day  following  the  date the  Underlying  Securities
     Registration  Statement  has  been  declared  effective  by the  Commission
     (provided  that any  Trading  Days that the  holders  are  prohibited  from
     utilizing  such  Underlying  Securities  Registration  Statement  to resell
     Underlying Shares, despite their desire to do so, shall be added to such 90
     day period),  to prepay,  from funds legally available therefor at the time
     of such prepayment,  all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount
     of the  Debentures  which  have not  previously  been  repaid  or for which
     Conversion Notices have not previously been delivered hereunder, at a price
     equal  to the  Optional  Prepayment  Price  (as  defined  below).  Any such
     prepayment  by the Company  shall be in cash and shall be free of any claim
     of  subordination.  The  Holders  shall have the right to  tender,  and the
     Company shall honor,  Conversion  Notices delivered prior to the expiration
     of the  thirtieth  (30th)  Trading  Day after  receipt by the Holders of an
     Optional  Prepayment  Notice for such Debentures  (such date, the "Optional
     Prepayment Date").

          (b) If any portion of the Optional  Prepayment Price shall not be paid
     by the Company by the Optional  Prepayment  Date,  the Optional  Prepayment




<PAGE>12



     Price  shall be  increased  by 15% per annum (to accrue  daily)  until paid
     (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty). In
     addition,  if any portion of the optional  Prepayment  Price remains unpaid
     through the expiration of the Optional  Prepayment Date, the Holder subject
     to such prepayment may elect by written notice to the Company to either (i)
     demand  conversion  in  accordance  with the  formula  and the time  period
     therefor set forth in Section 4 of any portion of the  principal  amount of
     Debentures for which the Optional Prepayment Price, plus accrued liquidated
     damages  thereof,  has  not  been  paid  in full  (the  "Unpaid  Prepayment
     Principal  Amount"),  in which event the  applicable Per Share Market Value
     shall be the lower of the Per Share Market Value calculated on the Optional
     Prepayment  Date and the Per Share Market Value as of the Holder's  written
     demand  for  conversion,   or  (ii)  invalidate  ab  initio  such  optional
     redemption,  notwithstanding  anything herein contained to the contrary. If
     the Holder  elects  option (i) above,  the Company  shall  within three (3)
     Trading Days such election is deemed delivered  hereunder to the Holder the
     shares of Common Stock  issuable upon  conversion of the Unpaid  Prepayment
     Amount  subject  to  such  conversion  demand  and  otherwise  perform  its
     obligations hereunder with respect thereto; or, if the Holder elects option
     (ii) above,  the Company  shall  promptly,  and in any event not later than
     three Trading Days from receipt of notice of such  election,  return to the
     Holder new Debentures for the full Unpaid Prepayment  Principal Amount. If,
     upon an election  under option (i) above,  the Company fails to deliver the
     shares of Common Stock  issuable upon  conversion of the Unpaid  Prepayment
     Principal  Amount  prior to the fifth  Trading  Day after such  election is
     deemed delivered hereunder, the Company shall pay to the Holder in cash, as
     liquidated  damages and not as a penalty,  $1,500 per day until the Company
     delivers such Common Stock to the Holder.

          (c) The "Optional Prepayment Price" for any Debentures shall equal the
     sum of (i) the  principal  amount of  Debentures  to be  prepaid,  plus all
     accrued and unpaid interest thereon, divided by the Conversion Price on (x)
     the Optional  Prepayment Date or (y) the date the Optional Prepayment Price
     is paid in full, whichever is less,  multiplied by the Average Price on (x)
     the Optional  Prepayment Date or (y) the date the Optional Prepayment Price

        may otherwise reasonably request in order to secure,  protect or enforce
        the Security Interest or the rights of JNC under this Security Agreement
        (but any failure to request or assure that the Company execute,  deliver
        or endorse  any such item  shall not  affect  nor  impair the  validity,

               of  State  and on June  29,  1998  with the  Santa  Clara  County
               Recorder,  the Company is the sole owner of the Collateral,  free

               interest in the Collateral, free and clear of any and all adverse
               liens,  claims,  and encumbrances of any kind or nature,  and the
               Company has not transferred,  and shall not transfer any Security
               Interest in the Collateral to any other person, without the prior
               written consent of JNC.

               interest  in the  Collateral,  securing  the  performance  of the
               Obligations.  All filings and other actions  necessary to perfect
               and protect such security interest have been made or taken by the
               Company.

         d.    Except for the consent of JNC, which is implicit pursuant to this
               Security Agreement, no consent of any person (including,  without
               limitation,  stock  holders  or  creditors  of  the  Company)  is

               obtain and furnish to JNC from time to time,  upon  demand,  such
               releases and/or  subordinations  of claims and liens which may be

               violation of any laws or  regulations or any policy of insurance.
               With respect to  Collateral  which is not  tangible,  the Company
               will take all steps reasonably  necessary to preserve and protect
               the value of such  Collateral,  and the Company  will  diligently
               pursue and seek to  preserve,  enforce  and  collect  any rights,
               claims, causes of action and accounts receivable.

               any of the  Collateral  in its entirety or in parcels,  either at
               public or  private  sale,  at such price and on such terms as JNC
               may deem  best,  at which  sale JNC may bid and  purchase  to the
               extent  permitted by law, as now or  hereinafter  in effect,  all
               without  (except as shall be required by  applicable  statute and

               subsequent to any such sale, and hereby expressly waives any such
               right.  JNC shall  apply the  proceeds  of any such sale or sales
               first to the  expenses  incident  thereto,  including  reasonable

               of any nature whatsoever by any other person or entity (including
               without limitation the Company); and/or

               i.     Upon  each  such  sale,  JNC  may,  unless  prohibited  by
                      applicable statute which cannot be waived, purchase all or
                      any  part of the  Collateral  being  sold,  free  from and

                      equities  of the  Company,  which are  hereby  waived  and
                      released.

               ii.    The proceeds of any such sale, lease, or other disposition
                      of the Collateral  shall be applied first, to the expenses
                      of retaking,  holding, storing,  processing, and preparing
                      for sale,  selling,  and the like,  and to the  reasonable
                      attorneys' fees and expenses  incurred by JNC, and then to
                      satisfaction of the Obligations, and to the payment of any
                      other amounts  required by applicable law, after which JNC
                      shall pay to the Company any  surplus  proceeds.  If, upon
                      the sale,  lease or other  disposition of the  Collateral,
                      the proceeds  thereof are  insufficient to pay all amounts
                      to which JNC is  legally  entitled,  the  Company  will be
                      liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon,
                      at the rate of 18% per annum (the "Default Rate"), and the
                      reasonable  fees  of  any  attorneys  employed  by  JNC to
                      collect  such  deficiency.  To  the  extent  permitted  by
                      applicable law, the Company waives all claims, damages and
                      demands  against  JNC  arising  out of  the  repossession,
                      removal,  retention or sale of the Collateral,  unless due
                      to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of JNC.

        d.     Upon the  occurrence  and during the  continuance  of an Event of
               Default,  JNC  shall  have  the  right  to  send  notice  of  the
               assignment  granted  herein  and the  security  interest  created
               hereunder  to any  account  debtors  of the  Company or any other
               persons obligated on, holding or otherwise concerned with, any of
               the  receivables,  may demand that monies due or to become due be
               paid to JNC and  thereafter,  JNC  shall  have the sole  right to
               collect  the  receivables  and all  books  and  records  relating
               thereto; and/or

        e.     JNC may institute any proceeding at law, in equity,  or otherwise
               in order to foreclose upon the Collateral or any part thereof. To
               the extent permitted by


<PAGE>8



               law, any sale thereof shall be held in the same manner,  with the
               same  effect  and  subject to the same  terms and  conditions  as
               specified  in  paragraph  (c) of this  Section 9. JNC may, in the
               exercise of its sole and absolute discretion,  from time to time,
               at any time and in any order,  choose to  institute a  proceeding
               for  foreclosure on some portion of the Collateral  and/or a sale
               under  paragraphs (c) or (d) on other portions of the Collateral,
               without  being  deemed to have made an election of remedies or to
               have  waived any other  rights or  remedies,  and  without in any
               other way limiting any remedies or rights which it may  otherwise
               have; and/or

        f.     In its name or in the name of the Company or  otherwise,  JNC may
               demand, sue for, collect, or receive any money or property at any
               time  payable or  receivable  on account of or in exchange for or
               make any compromise or settlement  deemed  desirable with respect
               to, any of the Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do
               so, and JNC may extend the time of  payment,  arrange for payment
               in  installments,  or otherwise  modify the terms of, or release,
               any of the Collateral,  without thereby incurring  responsibility
               to, or discharging  or otherwise  affecting any liability of, the
               Company or in any other way limiting any remedies or rights which
               JNC may otherwise have; and/or

        g.     JNC may,  in the  event JNC takes  possession  of the  Collateral
               pursuant  to the  exercise  of any right or remedy  provided  for
               hereunder or by law, any  insurance  policy owned by the Company,
               together with any unearned or prepaid premium thereon,  shall, at
               the option of JNC,  be assigned by the Company to, and become the
               sole  property  of JNC,  provided  that  the  amount  of any such
               unearned or prepaid  premium is thereupon  applied to the payment
               or satisfaction of the Obligations.

    10. Responsibility  for Collateral.  The Company assumes all liabilities and
        responsibility in connection with all Collateral,  and the obligation of
        the Company hereunder or under any of the JNC Transaction Documents, and
        shall  in no way be  affected  or  diminished  by  reason  of the  loss,
        destruction,   damage,  or  theft  of  any  of  the  Collateral  or  its
        unavailability for any reason.

    11. Security Interest Absolute.  All rights of JNC and the Security Interest
        hereunder,  and all  Obligations  of the  Company  hereunder,  shall  be
        absolute and unconditional, irrespective of: (a) any lack of validity or
        enforceability of any of the JNC Transaction  Documents or this Security
        Agreement,  and any  agreement  entered  into  in  connection  with  the
        foregoing, or any portion hereof or thereof; (b) any change in the time,
        manner or place of payment or  performance  of, or in any other term of,
        all or any of the  Obligations,  or any other  amendment or waiver of or
        any consent to any departure from the JNC Transaction Documents; (c) any
        exchange,  release,  or nonperfection  of any of the Collateral,  or any
        release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other
        collateral for, or any guaranty,  or any other security,  for all or any
        of the Obligations; (d) any action by JNC to obtain, adjust, settle, and
        cancel in its sole  discretion  any insurance  claims or matters made or
        arising in connection with the Collateral; or (e) any other circumstance
        which  might  otherwise   constitute  any  legal  or  equitable  defense
        available  to the  Company,  or a  discharge  of all or any  part of the
        Security Interest granted hereby.  Until the Obligations shall have been
        paid and  performed in full,  JNC's rights  shall  continue  even if the
        Obligations are barred for any reason,  including,  without  limitation,



<PAGE>9



          the running of the statute of limitations  or bankruptcy.  The Company
          expressly  waives  presentment,  protest,  notice of protest,  demand,
          notice of  nonpayment,  and  demand  for  performance.  This  Security
          Agreement  shall  create  a  continuing   security   interest  in  the
          Collateral  and  shall  remain  in full  force  and  effect  until the
          Obligations  shall have been paid and performed in full,  and shall be
          binding upon the Company and its successors and permitted  transferees
          and  assigns.  In the  event  that at any  time  any  transfer  of any
          Collateral or any payment received by JNC hereunder shall be deemed by
          final  order  of a court  of  competent  jurisdiction  to have  been a
          voidable  preference or fraudulent  conveyance under the bankruptcy or
          insolvency  laws of the  United  States,  or  shall  be  deemed  to be
          otherwise  due to any party other than JNC,  then,  in any such event,
          the Company's obligations hereunder shall survive cancellation of this
          Security  Agreement,  and shall not be  discharged or satisfied by any
          prior payment thereof and/or  cancellation of this Security Agreement,
          but  shall  remain  a valid  and  binding  obligation  enforceable  in
          accordance  with the terms and provisions  hereof.  The Company waives
          all right to require  JNC to proceed  against  any other  person or to
          apply any  Collateral  which JNC may hold at any time,  or to  marshal
          assets,  or to pursue  any other  remedy.  JNC may,  at its  election,
          exercise any right or remedy it may have against any security  held by
          JNC, including,  without  limitation,  the right to foreclose any such
          security  by  judicial  or  nonjudicial  sale,  without  affecting  or
          impairing in any way the rights of JNC  hereunder.  The Company waives
          any  defense  arising by reason of the  application  of the statute of
          limitations to any obligation secured hereby.

    12.   JNC Appointed Attorney-in-Fact.  The Company hereby irrevocably makes,
          nominates,  constitutes  and  appoints  JNC and each of its  officers,
          agents,  successors,  or assigns (with full power of substitution  and
          resubstitution),  as the  Company's  true and lawful  attorney-in-fact
          with full power to take all  actions and sign,  execute,  acknowledge,
          record, and file, in the Company's name and for JNC's use and benefit,
          all documents  that shall be necessary to accomplish  the following on
          the occurrence of any Event of Default and at any time thereafter,  so
          long as such Event of Default shall continue:

          a.   To  receive,  open,  and  dispose  of all mail  addressed  to the
               Company  which  relates  to the  Collateral,  or to  endorse  and
               collect  any  notes,  checks,  drafts,  money  orders,  or  other
               evidences of payment that may come into the possession of JNC;

          b.   To enforce  all rights of the Company  under and  pursuant to any
               agreements  or other  contractual  arrangements  relating  to the
               Collateral,  and to enter  into such other  agreements  as may be
               necessary to exploit the Collateral;

          c.   To pay or discharge taxes, liens,  security  interests,  or other
               encumbrances  at any  time  levied  or  placed  on or  threatened
               against  the  Collateral;   to  demand,  collect,   receipt  for,
               compromise,  settle,  and sue for  monies  due in  respect of the
               Collateral;

          d.   to  execute  and  perform  such  other  and  further  agreements,
               documents,  and instruments of any nature whatsoever,  including,
               but not limited to, the  execution and filing of a UCC Form 1 and
               to do any and all  other  things  as JNC may  deem  necessary  or
               appropriate   for  the  purpose  of  preserving,   protecting  or
               maintaining the Collateral and the Security  Interest  granted to



<PAGE>10


               JNC;  and  Generally,  to do,  at the  option  of JNC  and at the
               Company's  expense,  at any time, or from time to time,  all acts
               and things which JNC deems  necessary to protect,  preserve,  and
               realize upon the Collateral and JNC's security  interests therein
               in order to effect the intent of this  Security  Agreement and of
               the  Purchase  Agreements  all as fully  and  effectually  as the
               Company might or could do.

        The Company hereby  ratifies all that said attorney shall lawfully do or
        cause to be done by virtue  hereof.  This power of  attorney  is coupled
        with an interest and shall be irrevocable  for the term of this Security
        Agreement  and  thereafter  as long as any of the  Obligations  shall be
        outstanding.

    13. Duties of JNC.

        a.     The powers  conferred on JNC  hereunder are solely to protect its
               interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it
               to exercise any such  powers.  Except for the safe custody of any
               Collateral in its actual possession and the accounting for monies
               actually received by it hereunder with respect to which JNC shall
               act  with  reasonable  care,  JNC  shall  have  no duty as to any
               Collateral or as to the taking of any steps necessary to preserve
               its rights  against prior parties or any other rights  pertaining
               to  any  Collateral.  JNC  shall  be  deemed  to  have  exercised
               reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral
               in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment that is
               substantially  equal to that treatment  which JNC accords its own
               property in the ordinary course of its business.

        b.     If the Company  fails to pay,  before  delinquency,  any taxes or
               other  governmental  charges  which  may be  levied  against  the
               Collateral  or its  operation  or use,  or any  assessments  made
               against the  Collateral,  or fails to make any payment or to take
               any action required  herein or in the JNC Transaction  Documents,
               or to take any other  action  necessary  to preserve the priority
               and value of JNC's rights under this Security Agreement, then JNC
               may (but shall not be obligated  to) make such  payments and take
               all such  actions as JNC deems  necessary to protect its security
               interest  in  or  to  protect  and  preserve  the  value  of  the
               Collateral,  and JNC is hereby  authorized  (without limiting the
               general  nature of the authority  hereinabove  conferred) to pay,
               purchase,  contest,  or compromise any encumbrances,  charges, or
               liens  which  in the  judgment  of JNC  appear  to be prior to or
               superior to, or of equal priority  with,  the Security  Interest.
               Any amount so paid shall be included in the  Obligations  secured
               hereby and shall bear  interest  thereon at the Default Rate from
               date of payment  until repaid,  and shall be secured  pursuant to
               the terms of this Security  Agreement by the Collateral and shall
               be repayable by the Company on demand.

    14. Expenses.   In  addition  to  expenses  payable  under  the  Transaction
        Documents,  the Company agrees to pay all out of pocket fees, costs, and
        expenses incurred in the filing of the UCC Form 1 or any other financing
        statements,    continuation   statements,   partial   releases,   and/or
        termination  statements  related thereto or any expenses of any searches
        reasonably  required by JNC. The Company shall also pay all other claims
        and  charges  which in the  reasonable  opinion of JNC might  prejudice,
        imperil,  or otherwise  affect the  Collateral or the Security  Interest



<PAGE>11



          therein.  All expenses so incurred  shall be  immediately  paid by the
          Company upon demand by JNC. The Company will also, upon demand, pay to
          JNC the  amount  of any and all  reasonable  expenses,  including  the
          reasonable  fees and  expenses  of its  counsel and of any experts and
          agents,  which JNC may incur in connection with (i) the administration
          of this Security  Agreement,  (ii) the custody or preservation  of, or
          the sale of,  collection from, or other  realization  upon, any of the
          Collateral,  (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of
          JNC  hereunder  or under the JNC  Transaction  Documents,  or (iv) the
          failure by the  Company to  perform or observe  any of the  provisions
          contained herein or in the JNC Transaction  Documents.  Until so paid,
          any fees payable  hereunder shall be added to the principal  amount of
          the Obligations and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

     15.  Term of Agreement.  This Security  Agreement  shall terminate when all
          payments  under the JNC  Transaction  Documents have been made in full
          and all other  Obligations  have been  paid or  discharged.  Upon such
          termination,  JNC, at the  request and at the expense of the  Company,
          will join in executing any  termination  statement with respect to any
          financing  statement  executed  and filed  pursuant  to this  Security
          Agreement.

     16.  Other  Security.  To  the  extent  that  the  Obligations  are  now or
          hereafter  secured by  property  other than the  Collateral  or by the
          guarantee,  endorsement,  or  property  of  any  other  person,  firm,
          corporation,  or other entity,  then JNC shall have the right,  in its
          sole discretion, to pursue, relinquish,  subordinate,  modify, or take
          any other action with respect thereto, without in any way modifying or
          affecting any of JNC's rights and remedies hereunder.

      17. Miscellaneous.

          a.   Indemnity. The Company agrees to defend, protect,  indemnify, and
               hold  harmless JNC and each and all of its  respective  officers,
               directors,  employees, attorneys, and Agents (collectively called
               the  "Indemnitees")  from and  against  any and all  liabilities,
               obligations,  losses,  damages,  penalties,  actions,  judgments,
               suits, claims, costs,  expenses, and disbursements of any kind or
               nature whatsoever (including,  without limitation, the reasonable
               fees  and  disbursements  of  counsel  for  such  Indemnitees  in
               connection with any  investigative,  administrative,  or judicial
               proceeding, whether or not such Indemnitees shall be designated a
               party thereto), which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted
               against  such   Indemnitees   (whether   direct,   indirect,   or
               consequential  and whether  based on any federal or state laws or
               other  statutory  regulations,   including,  without  limitation,
               securities and commercial laws and regulations,  common law or at
               equitable cause, or contract or otherwise) in any manner relating
               to or arising out of this Security  Agreement or the Obligations,
               or any act, event, or transaction  related or attendant  thereto,
               including,  without  limitation,  any and all costs and  expenses
               incurred  in  the   enforcement   of  this   Security   Agreement
               (collectively, the "Indemnified Matters"). To the extent that the
               undertaking to indemnify, pay, and hold harmless set forth in the
               preceding  sentence may be unenforceable  because it is violative
               of any law or public  policy,  the Company shall  contribute  the
               maximum  portion  which it is permitted to pay and satisfy  under
               applicable   law,  to  the  payment  and   satisfaction   of  all
               Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees.

          b.   Course of Dealing.  No course of dealing  between the Company and
               JNC, nor any failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on


<PAGE>12



               the part of JNC,  any right,  power,  or  privilege  hereunder or
               under the JNC  Transaction  Documents  shall  operate as a waiver
               thereof;  nor shall any single or partial  exercise of any right,
               power, or privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any other or
               further  exercise  thereof or the  exercise  of any other  right,
               power or privilege.

          c.   Remedies  Cumulative.  Except  as  otherwise  expressly  provided
               herein, no remedy conferred by any of the specific  provisions of
               this Security  Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other
               remedy  which  is  otherwise  available  at law,  in  equity,  by
               statute, or otherwise, and except as otherwise expressly provided
               for herein,  each and every other remedy shall be cumulative  and
               shall be in addition to every other  remedy  given  hereunder  or
               otherwise.  The  election of any one or more of such  remedies by
               any of the parties  hereto shall not  constitute a waiver by such
               party of the right to pursue any other available remedies.

          d.   Notices. All notices,  requests,  demands,  deliveries, and other
               communications  hereunder  shall be in  writing  and,  except  as
               otherwise specifically provided in this Security Agreement, shall
               be deemed to have been duly given,  upon  receipt,  if  delivered
               personally or via fax, or ten (10) business days after deposit in
               the mail,  if mailed,  first  class with  postage  prepaid to the
               parties at the following addresses:

        d.     Headings.   The  section  headings  contained  in  this  Security
               Agreement  are for  convenience  only and  shall not  control  or
               affect the meaning or  construction  of any of the  provisions of
               this Security Agreement.

        e.     Governing  Law.  This  Security  Agreement  shall be construed in
               accordance with the laws of the State of New York,  except to the
               extent the  validity,  perfection  or  enforcement  of a security
               interest  hereunder in respect of any  particular  Collateral are
               governed  by a  jurisdiction  other than the State of New York in
               which case such law shall govern.

               The Company and JNC hereby irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction
               of any New York State or United  States  Federal court sitting in
               Manhattan county over any action or proceeding  arising out of or
               relating  to this  Security  Agreement,  and the  Company and JNC
               hereby  irrevocably  agree  that all  claims in  respect  of such
               action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York
               State or Federal  court.  The  Company and JNC agree that a final
               judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and
               may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or
               in any other manner  provided by law. The Company and JNC further
               waive any  objection to venue in such State and any  objection to
               an action or  proceeding  in such State on the basis of forum non
               conveniens.

        f.     Amendments, etc. Any of the terms and provisions of this Security
               Agreement  may be  waived  at any  time  by the  party  which  is
               entitled to the benefit thereof, but only by a written instrument
               executed by such party.  This  Security  Agreement may be amended
               only by an agreement in writing executed by JNC and the Company.

        g.     Severability.  In the event that any  provision of this  Security
               Agreement is held to be invalid,  prohibited or  unenforceable in
               any  jurisdiction  for  any  reason,  unless  such  provision  is
               narrowed by judicial construction, this Security Agreement shall,
               as  to  such  jurisdiction,  be  construed  as if  such  invalid,
               prohibited  or  unenforceable  provision  had been more  narrowly
               drawn so as not to be invalid,  prohibited or unenforceable.  If,
               notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  any  provision of this Security
               Agreement is held to be invalid, prohibited or


<PAGE>14



               unenforceable  in any  jurisdiction,  such provision,  as to such
               jurisdiction,   shall  be  ineffective  to  the  extent  of  such
               invalidity,  prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating
               the remaining  portion of such provision or the other  provisions
               of this Security  Agreement and without affecting the validity or
               enforceability  of such provision or the other provisions of this
               Security Agreement in any other jurisdiction.

        h.     Delay, Etc. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or
               remedy  accruing to any party hereto shall impair any such right,
               power, or remedy of such party nor be construed to be a waiver of
               any such right,  power,  or remedy nor  constitute  any course of
               dealing or performance hereunder.

        i.     Costs and  Attorneys'  Fees.  If any  action,  suit,  arbitration
               proceeding, or other proceeding is instituted arising out of this
               Security  Agreement,  the  prevailing  party shall recover all of
               such party's  costs,  including,  without  limitation,  the court
               costs and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred therein,  including
               any and all appeals or petitions therefrom.

        j.     Counterparts.  This Security  Agreement may be executed in one or
               more counterparts,  each of which may be deemed an original,  but
               all  of  which  together,  shall  constitute  one  and  the  same
               instrument.  This  Security  Agreement may be executed by a party
               and sent to the other parties via facsimile  transmission and the
               facsimile transmitted copy shall have the same integrity,  force,
               and effect as an original document.

        k.     Entire   Agreement.   This  Security   Agreement  and  the  other
               agreements  referred to herein  supersede all prior  negotiations
               and  agreements  (whether  written  or oral) and  constitute  the
               entire   understanding   among  the  parties  hereto,   it  being
               understood that this Security  Agreement relates back to the date
               of the June 29th Purchase Agreement.
