                                    EXHIBIT A

                              INTRACO SYSTEMS, INC.

                    CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS, PREFERENCES,
                             RIGHTS AND LIMITATIONS
               OF SERIES A CONVERTIBLE REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK

         1.   DESIGNATION AND NUMBER OF SHARES. Of the 10,000,000 shares of
preferred stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Preferred Stock"), authorized
pursuant to Article IV of the Corporation's Amended and Restated Articles of
Incorporation, 2,500,000 are hereby designated as Series A Convertible
Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock"). Shares of Series A
Preferred Stock are sometimes referred to herein as "Series A Preferred Shares."

         2.   DIVIDENDS.


              (a)   The holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to
receive cumulative cash dividends at the rate of 7% per annum.  Such dividends
shall be payable quarterly beginning on February 1st and continuing every three
months thereafter until the redemption or conversion of the Series A Preferred
Stock.


         3.   LIQUIDATION RIGHTS. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding
up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any distribution
or payment shall be made to the holders of any stock ranking junior to the
Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be
entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation an amount equal to
$1.00 per share (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits,
recapitalizations and the like with respect to such shares) (the "Preference
Value"), plus all declared but unpaid dividends, for each share of Series A
Preferred Stock held by them. After the payment of the full Preference Value of
each share of the Series A Preferred Stock as set forth herein, the remaining
assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution, if any, shall be
distributed ratably to the holders of the Corporation's Common Stock.

         4.   CONVERSION.

              (a)   Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be convertible,
at any time, or from time to time, into one share of the Corporation's common
stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), subject to adjustment as
set forth in Section 5 below (the "Conversion Rate"). Such conversion shall be
deemed to be effective on the business day (the "Conversion Date") following the
receipt by the Corporation of written notice from the holder of the Series A
Preferred Stock of the holder's intention to convert the shares of Series A
Stock, together with the holder's stock certificate or certificates evidencing
the Series A Preferred Stock to be converted.

              (b)   Promptly after the Conversion Date, the Corporation shall
issue and deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of
full shares of Common Stock issuable to the holder pursuant to the holder's
conversion of Series A Preferred Shares in accordance with the provisions of
this Section. The stock certificate(s) evidencing the Common Stock shall be

<PAGE>

issued with a restrictive legend indicating that it was issued in a transaction
exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), and that it cannot be transferred unless it is so registered,
or an exemption from registration is available, in the opinion of counsel to the
Corporation. The Common Stock shall be issued in the same name as the person who
is the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock unless, in the opinion of counsel
to the Corporation, such transfer can be made in compliance with applicable
securities laws. The person in whose name the certificate(s) of Common Stock are
so registered shall be treated as a holder of shares of Common Stock of the
Corporation on the date the Common Stock certificate(s) are so issued.

                    All shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the
Series A Preferred Shares as provided herein shall be duly and validly issued
and fully paid and nonassessable. Effective as of the Conversion Date, such
converted Series A Preferred Shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding
and all rights of the holder with respect to such shares shall immediately
terminate except the right to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
such conversion.

              (c)   The Corporation covenants that it will at all times reserve
and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock,
for the purpose of effecting conversions of the Series A Preferred Stock, the
full number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon the conversion of all
outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock not converted. For purposes
of this Section, the number of shares of Common Stock that shall be deliverable
upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock
shall be computed as if at the time of computation all the outstanding shares
were held by a single holder.

              (d)   The Corporation will pay any and all documentary stamp or
similar issue or transfer taxes payable in respect of the issue or delivery of
shares of Common Stock or other securities on conversion of the Series A
Preferred Stock pursuant hereto; provided, however, that the Corporation shall
not be required to pay any tax or fee that may be payable in respect of any
transfer involved in the issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock or other
securities in a name other than that of the holder of the Series A Preferred
Stock to be converted and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and
until the person requesting the issue or delivery has paid to the Corporation
the amount of any such tax or fee or has established, to the satisfaction of the
Corporation, that the tax or fee has been paid.

              (e)   The Corporation shall list the shares of Common Stock
required to be delivered upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares, prior
to the delivery thereof, for trading upon each national securities exchange or
automated quotation system, if any, upon which the outstanding Common Stock is
listed at the time of delivery.

         5.   ADJUSTMENTS TO THE CONVERSION RATE. The number of shares of Common
Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock shall be convertible shall be
subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

              (a)   If the Corporation shall at any time: (1) subdivide the
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (2) combine
the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, (3)
declare a dividend on the outstanding shares of Common Stock payable in shares
of Common Stock, or (4) issue by reclassification of its Common Stock any shares

                                       4
<PAGE>

of its capital stock, the number of shares into which each share of Series A
Preferred Stock is convertible immediately after the record date for such
dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision, combination
or reclassification shall be adjusted so that it shall equal the number of
shares determined by multiplying the current number of shares issuable upon
conversion of each share of Series A Preferred Stock by a fraction, of which the
numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
after such dividend, distribution, subdivision, combination or reclassification,
and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately before such dividend, distribution, subdivision,
combination or reclassification. Such adjustment shall be made successively
whenever any event specified above shall occur.

              (b)   If the Corporation after the date hereof: (1) shall
consolidate with or merge into any other person and shall not be the continuing
or surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger, (2) shall permit any
other person to consolidate with or merge into the Corporation and the
Corporation shall be the continuing or surviving person but, in connection with
such consolidation or merger, the Common Stock shall be changed into or
exchanged for stock or other securities of any other person or cash or any other
property, (3) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties or
assets to any other person, or (4) shall effect a reclassification of the Common
Stock (other than a reclassification resulting in the issue of additional shares
of Common Stock for which adjustment in the number of shares is provided in
subsection (i) above), then, and in the case of such transaction, proper
provision shall be made so that, upon the basis and the terms and in the manner
provided herein, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, upon the
conversion thereof immediately after the consummation of such transaction, shall
be entitled to receive in lieu of the Common Stock, the highest amount of
securities, cash or other property to which such holder would actually have been
entitled as stockholders upon such consummation if such holder had exercised the
conversion rights set forth herein immediately prior thereto, subject to
adjustments (subsequent to such consummation) as nearly equivalent as possible
to the adjustments provided for in this Section.

              (c)   (i)   If the Corporation shall issue, after the date upon
which any shares of Series A Preferred Stock were first issued (the "Purchase
Date"), any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a
consideration per share less than the Preference Value in effect immediately
prior to the issuance of such Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to
each such issuance shall be adjusted to a price determined by multiplying such
Conversion Rate by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the
number of shares of such Additional Stock, and the denominator of which shall be
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such
issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate
consideration received by the Corporation for such issuance would purchase at
such Conversion Rate;

                    (ii)  No adjustment of the Conversion Rate shall be made in
an amount less than 1%, provided that any adjustments that are not required to
be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be either
taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made prior to three years from
the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward, or
shall be made at the end of three years from the date of the event giving rise
to the adjustment being carried forward.

                                       5
<PAGE>

                    (iii) In the case of the issuance of Additional Stock for
cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor
before deducting any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or
incurred by the Corporation for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with
the issuance and sale thereof.

                    (iv)  In the case of the issuance of Additional Stock for a
consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than
cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined by the Board of
Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment.

                    (v)   In the case of the issuance of options to purchase or
rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into
or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options to purchase or rights to subscribe
for such convertible or exchangeable securities, the following provisions shall
apply:

                          (1) The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common
Stock deliverable upon exercise (to the extent then exercisable) of such options
to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been
issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a consideration
equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided above), if any,
received by the Corporation upon the issuance of such options or rights plus the
exercise price provided in such options or rights for the Common Stock covered
thereby.

                          (2) The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common
Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for (to the extent then
convertible or exchangeable) any such convertible or exchangeable securities or
upon the exercise of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such
convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange
thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were
issued or such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to
the consideration, if any, received by the Corporation for any such securities
and related options or rights (excluding any cash received on account of accrued
interest or accrued dividends), plus the additional consideration, if any, to be
received by the Corporation upon the conversion or exchange of such securities
or the exercise of any related options or rights (the consideration in each case
to be determined in the manner provided above.

              (d)   "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common Stock
issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto) by the Corporation after
the Purchase Date EXCEPT FOR:

                    (i)   shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to a
transaction described in subsections (a) or (b) of this Section;

                    (ii)  shares of Common Stock issuable or issued to
employees, consultants, directors or vendors (if in transactions with primarily
non-financing purposes) of the Corporation directly or pursuant to a stock
option plan or restricted stock plan approved by the stockholders and Board of
Directors of the Corporation;

                                       6
<PAGE>

                    (iii) shares of Common Stock issued in connection with a
bona fide business acquisition of or by the Company, whether by merger,
consolidation, sale of assets, sale or exchange of stock or otherwise;

                    (iv)  shares of Common Stock issued to any bank, equipment
or real property lessor or other similar institution if and to the extent that
the transaction in which such issuance is to be made is approved by the
Corporation's Board of Directors; or

                    (v)   shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to or in
connection with any corporate partnership, joint venture, strategic alliance or
other arrangement if and to the extent that the transaction in which such
issuance is to be made is approved by the Corporation's Board of Directors.

              (e)   In the event the Corporation shall declare a distribution
payable in securities of other persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by the
Corporation or other persons, assets (excluding cash dividends) or options or
rights not referred to in subsections (a) or (b) of this Section, then, in each
such case for the purpose of this subsection, the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such
distribution as though they were the holders of the number of shares of Common
Stock of the Corporation into which their shares of Series A Preferred Stock are
convertible as of the record date fixed for the determination of the holders of
Common Stock of the Corporation entitled to receive such distribution.

              (f)   Without the prior written consent of the holders of a
majority of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Corporation will not, by amendment
of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization,
recapitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue
or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the
observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed
hereunder by the Corporation, but will at all times in good faith assist in the
carrying out of all the provisions of this Section.

              (g)   (i)   No fractional shares shall be issued upon the
conversion of any share or shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, and the
number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest
whole share. Whether or not fractional shares are issuable upon such conversion
shall be determined on the basis of the total number of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock the holder is at the time converting into Common Stock and the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such aggregate conversion.

                    (ii)  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment
of the Conversion Rate of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section, the
Corporation, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or
readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to each
holder of Series A Preferred Stock a certificate setting forth such adjustment
or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or
readjustment is based. The Corporation shall, upon the written request at any
time of any holder of Series A Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be furnished
to such holder a like certificate setting forth (A) such adjustment and
readjustment, (B) the Conversion Rate at the time in effect, and (C) the number

                                       7
<PAGE>

of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other property which at the
time would be received upon the conversion of a share of Series A Preferred
Stock.

              (h)   In the event of any taking by the Corporation of a record of
the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the
holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend (other than a cash
dividend) or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or
otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or
property, or to receive any other right, the Corporation shall mail to each
holder of Series A Preferred Stock, at least 20 days prior to the date specified
therein, a notice specifying the date on which any such record is to be taken
for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and
character of such dividend, distribution or right.

         6.   PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS. No holders of the Series A Preferred Shares are
entitled to any preemptive rights to acquire any unissued shares of any capital
stock of the Corporation, now or hereafter authorized, or any other securities
of the Corporation, whether or not convertible into shares of capital stock of
the Corporation or carrying a right to subscribe to or acquire any such shares
of capital stock.

         7.   VOTING. Each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled
to vote as required by applicable law.

         8.   REDEMPTION. (a) The Corporation may redeem, in whole or in part,
at any time and from time to time, the Series A Preferred Shares at a price per
share equal to the then-applicable Preference Value per share. No sinking fund
shall be required for the redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock.

              (b)   The Corporation shall give written notice (the "Redemption
Notice") to all holders of the Series A Preferred Stock of its intention to
redeem the shares of Series A Preferred Stock identified therein. The Redemption
Notice shall set forth the number of Series A Preferred Shares being redeemed,
the date on which such redemption shall be effective (the "Redemption Date"),
which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to
the Redemption Date. The Redemption Notice shall be delivered to each holder at
the address as it appears on the stock transfer books of the Corporation.

              In order to receive the Preference Value per share redeemed, each
holder of the Series A Preferred Stock shall surrender to the Corporation at the
place designated in the Redemption Notice the certificate(s) representing the
number of shares specified in the Redemption Notice. Upon the Redemption Date,
such redeemed Series A Preferred Shares shall be no longer be deemed outstanding
and all rights of the holder with respect to such shares shall immediately
terminate, except the right to receive the Preference Value per share. The right
to convert the Series A Preferred Shares shall terminate as to the shares
designated for redemption as of the close of business on the business day
preceding the Redemption Date.

         9.   REPORTS AND NOTICES. So long as any shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock shall be outstanding, the Corporation shall provide to the
holder or holders of such shares copies of all annual audited financial
statements and unaudited quarterly financial statements within 120 days from the
end of the fiscal year and 60 days from the end of each fiscal quarter,
respectively.

                                       8
<PAGE>

         10.  WAIVER BY SERIES A PREFERRED STOCKHOLDERS. Except as expressly
provided for herein or as otherwise required by law, any rights or benefits for
the Series A Preferred Shares and the holders thereof provided herein may be
waived as to all outstanding Series A Preferred Shares and the holders thereof
by the consent of the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding Series A
Preferred Shares.

         11.  HOLDER. The term "holder" as used in this Designation of
Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred
Stock means a record holder of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

         12.  REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

              (a)  At any time commencing on the earlier of (i) five years from
the date of issuance of Series A Preferred Stock; or (ii) 180 days after the
effective date of the Corporation's initial public offering, the holders of the
Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to demand that the Corporation
file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"SEC") with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
the Series A Preferred Shares (the "Conversion Shares"). Upon receipt by the
Corporation of written notice executed by a majority of the holders of the
Series A Preferred Stock requesting the Corporation effectuate such
registration, the Corporation shall soon as practicable use its best efforts to
effect such registration (including, without limitation, filing post-effective
amendments, appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state
securities laws, and appropriate compliance with the Securities Act, and cause
