(f) To the knowledge of the Corporations, Robert Shiver is a citizen of

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by the addition of the
following information:
On December 22, 1998, the Issuer announced that it had agreed with
Securicor Communications Limited ("SCL") the terms of a $25,000,000 convertible
subordinated debt facility to be extended by SCL to the Issuer (the "Convertible
Debt Facility"). On February 19, 1999, the Issuer and SCL entered a definitive
loan agreement for the Convertible Debt Facility. The terms of the Convertible
Debt Facility provide that SCL will make up to $25,000,000 in loans available to
the Issuer on a revolving basis. Under the Convertible Debt Facility, interest
will accrue on the loans, except in the case of the first interest period (which
shall end on March 31, 1999), on a quarterly basis and at a rate of 11.5% per
annum. All accrued interest will be capitalized and added to the principal
amount of the loans outstanding on the last day of each calendar quarter,
provided that, the Issuer has the option under the Convertible Debt Facility to
make any quarterly interest payment in cash or in shares of its Common Stock. In
the event the Issuer elects to make an interest payment in cash, SCL can elect,
in lieu of receiving such cash interest payment, to receive the value of such
payment in additional shares of the Issuer's Common Stock. The loans advanced
under the Convertible Debt Facility shall mature and become due on December 31,
1999.
Under the Convertible Debt Facility, SCL has the right at any time to
convert all or any part of the unpaid amounts due under the Convertible Debt
Facility into shares of the Common Stock of the Issuer. The first $12,500,000 of
loans under the Convertible Debt Facility are convertible at a conversion value
of $1.4955500 per share. All further loans are convertible at a conversion value
per share equal to the average closing price for the Issuer's Common Stock on
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CUSIP No. 458134 10 3 13D Page 11 of 16
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the Nasdaq National Market System for the 20 consecutive trading days
immediately preceding the date of the loan. Loans under the Convertible Debt
Facility through and including February 18, 1999 aggregated $15,000,000 in
principal amount, which are convertible into an aggregate of 9,741,015 shares of
the Issuer's Common Stock ($12,500,000 of such loans are convertible at a
conversion value of $1.4955500 per share and $2.5 million of such loans are
convertible at a conversion value of 1.8078125 per share). Giving effect to
these loans, SCL beneficially owns 34,741,015 shares of the Common Stock of the
Issuer. The interest on the outstanding loans, to the extent not paid in cash,
will be capitalized as set forth above and convertible into additional shares of
Common Stock.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
Item 5 is hereby amended by replacing previously filed information with
the following information:
(a) The responses of the Corporations to rows (11) through (13) of the cover
page of this Amendment No. 8 to the Schedule 13D are incorporated herein by
reference. As of February 19, 1999:
(i) SCL was the direct and beneficial owner of 34,741,015 shares of
Common Stock;
(ii) Securicor International Limited was the direct and beneficial
owner of 937,042 shares of Common Stock;
(iii) Security Services plc is the direct and beneficial owner of all
of the capital stock of SCL and Securicor International Limited; and
(iv) Securicor plc is the direct and beneficial owner of all of the
capital stock of Security Services plc.
As a result of a recent corporate reorganization, Security Services plc
is now 100% directly owned by Securicor plc and Securicor Group plc (now known
as Securicor Group Limited) no longer has any beneficial interest in shares of
the Issuer.
(b) The responses of the Corporations to rows (7) through (10) of the cover

reference.

trading days ending the day before the Conversion Date.

2. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF CREDIT
2.1. (1) REVOLVING ADVANCES. Upon and subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, Lender shall make available, from time to time on a revolving
basis, until the Commitment Termination Date, for Borrower's use and upon the
request of Borrower therefor, advances (each, an "Advance") in an aggregate
amount which shall not exceed $25,000,000. The Initial Advance and the
Additional Advances in the aggregate principal amount of $12,500,000 were made
to Borrower on December 17, 1998 (the "Initial Advance Date") and on January 14,
1999 and February 3, 1999, respectively, and such Initial Advance and Additional
Advances shall be treated as Advances for all purposes of this Agreement. Each
subsequent Advance shall be made on notice, given no later than thirty (30) days
prior to the proposed Advance, by Borrower to Lender and no Advance shall be
requested unless the amount thereof is equal to the greater of (i) $2,500,000
and (ii) a whole number multiple of $2,500,000 in excess thereof unless the
availability under this Agreement is less than $2,500,000 in which case such
Advance shall equal such amount. Each such notice (a "Notice of Advance") shall
be in writing in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, executed by any
duly authorized officer of Borrower, specifying therein the requested date and
amount of such Advance. Lender shall, before 5:00 P.M. (New York City time) on
the date of the proposed Advance, upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions
set forth in Section 3, wire to a bank in the United States or the United
Kingdom designated by Borrower and reasonably acceptable to Lender the amount of
such Advance.
6
<PAGE>
(2) NOTE. The Loan made by Lender shall be evidenced by a
promissory note, dated as of the Initial Advance Date, to be executed and
delivered by Borrower at or prior to the Closing Date, the form of which is
attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit B (the "Note"). The Note shall
be payable to the order of Lender and shall represent the obligation of Borrower
to pay the amount of the Loan, with interest thereon as prescribed in Section
2.4. The date and amount of each Advance and each payment of principal and
interest or any capitalization of interest with respect thereto shall be
recorded on the books and records of Lender, which books and records shall
constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information therein
recorded. The entire unpaid balance of the Loan and all other Obligations shall
be due and payable on the Repayment Date.
2.2. USE OF PROCEEDS. Borrower shall apply the proceeds of the Advances
for the general corporate purposes of Borrower and its Subsidiaries.
2.3. INTEREST ON LOAN.
(1) From the Initial Advance Date through and including the
Commitment Termination Date, interest accrues on the amount outstanding from
time to time under the Loan at the rate of eleven and one-half percent (11-1/2%)
per annum, calculated on the basis of a 360 day year for the number of days
elapsed. Interest will accrue on the Initial Advance through, and will be
capitalized on, March 31, 1999 and added to the principal amount outstanding at
such time under the Loan. Interest on all other Advances will accrue through the
last day of each calendar quarter and will be capitalized on such date and added
to the principal amount outstanding at such time under the Loan. Interest
accrued and uncapitalized on the Repayment Date shall be payable on such date.
(2) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
Section 2.3, if at any time until payment in full of all of the Obligations, the
applicable rate of interest under this Agreement exceeds the highest rate of
interest permissible under any law which a court of competent jurisdiction
shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto (the "Maximum Lawful
Rate"), then in such event and so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so
exceeded, the rate of interest payable hereunder shall be equal to the Maximum
Lawful Rate; provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the applicable
rate of interest under this Agreement is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate,
Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate
until such time as the total interest received by Lender from the making of
Advances hereunder is equal to the total interest which Lender would have
received had the applicable rate of interest under this Agreement been (but for
the operation of this paragraph) the interest rate payable since the Initial
Advance Date. Thereafter, the interest rate payable hereunder shall be the
applicable rate of interest under this Agreement, unless and until such rate
shall again exceeds the Maximum Lawful Rate, in which event this paragraph shall
again apply.
2.4. QUARTERLY INTEREST PAYMENTS.
7
<PAGE>
(1) Borrower shall have the option, in lieu of capitalization
of accrued interest, to pay any such quarterly interest amount either in cash or
in Borrower's Common Stock by giving Lender notice thereof ten (10) Business
Days before such payment is due. If Borrower elects to make a quarterly interest
payment in Common Stock, such Common Stock shall be valued for payment of the
amount due at the Conversion Value applicable with respect to such interest
payment. Payment in Common Stock of quarterly interest payments shall be the
number of shares of Borrower's Common Stock having an aggregate Conversion Value
equal to such interest payment, provided that the value of any fractional shares
shall be paid in cash.
(2) Notwithstanding Borrower's election to make a cash payment
of any accrued quarterly interest payment, Lender by giving written notice to
Borrower no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the date such payment is
due may elect, at its sole option, to receive the value of such quarterly
interest payment in Borrower's Common Stock based on the Conversion Value with
respect to such interest payment.
2.5. PREPAYMENTS.
Borrower shall have the right, at any time, to prepay the
Loan, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon at least ten (10)
Business Days irrevocable notice to Lender specifying (i) the amount to be
repaid and (ii) the date of such repayment. Each partial prepayment of the Loan
pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be in a principal amount equal to the lesser
of $500,000 or a whole number multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof or such
lesser amount outstanding and shall be accompanied by payment of interest
allocable to the amount of principal prepaid. If any such notice is given,
Borrower shall make the prepayment specified therein, and such prepayment shall
be due and payable as specified therein. Any election by Borrower to make a
prepayment of the Loan, in whole or in part, shall be made in cash only, unless
Lender provides Borrower with written notice three Business Days prior to the
specified prepayment date of Lender's election to receive Borrower's Common
Stock as the form of payment. In the event Lender elects to receive the
prepayment from Borrower in Common Stock, such prepayment amount shall be
allocated by Lender to the Advances in accordance with Section 2.7 hereof and
the Common Stock to be issued with respect to such prepayment shall be valued at
the Conversion Value applicable to such amounts. Amounts prepaid may be
reborrowed until the Commitment Termination Date.
2.6. RECEIPT OF PAYMENTS. Borrower shall make each cash payment under
this Agreement not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when
due in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available
funds to Lender's depositary bank as designated by Lender from time to time for
deposit in Lender's depositary account. For purposes only of computing interest
hereunder, all payments shall be applied by Lender on the day payment has been
credited by Lender's depository bank to Lender's account in immediately
available funds. For purposes of determining the amount of funds available for
borrowing by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.1(a) hereof, such payments shall be
applied by Lender against the outstanding amount of the Loan at the time they
are credited to its account. All payments made in Common Stock shall be made in
fully paid, non-assesable shares delivered to Lender on the date such payment is
due.
8
<PAGE>
2.7. APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Borrower irrevocably waives the right to
direct the application of any and all payments at any time or times hereafter
received by Lender from or on behalf of Borrower, and Lender shall have the
continuing exclusive right to apply any and all such payments (including the
right to apply any payments to any Advance, and interest accrued with respect
thereto, for purposes of determining the Conversion Value of Common Stock for
any such payment) against the then due and payable Obligations of Borrower and
in repayment of the Loan as Lender may deem advisable. Lender is authorized to,
and at its option may, make advances on behalf of Borrower for payment of all
fees, expenses, charges, costs, principal and interest incurred by Borrower
hereunder when and as Borrower fails to pay promptly any such amounts. At
Lender's option and to the extent permitted by law, any advances so made may be
deemed Advances constituting part of the Loan hereunder.
2.8. ACCOUNTING. Lender will, upon Borrower's request, provide a
monthly accounting of transactions under the Loan to Borrower within 10 days of
the end of the month. Each and every such accounting shall (absent manifest
error) be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrower in all respects as
to all matters reflected therein, unless Borrower, within 20 days after the date
any such accounting is rendered, shall notify Lender in writing of any objection
which Borrower may have to any such accounting, describing the basis for such
objection with specificity. In that event, only those items expressly objected
to in such notice shall be deemed to be disputed by Borrower. Lender's
determination, based upon the facts available, of any item objected to by
Borrower in such notice shall (absent manifest error) be final, binding and
conclusive on Borrower, unless Borrower shall commence a judicial proceeding to
resolve such objection within 45 days following Lender's notifying Borrower of
such determination.
2.9. ACCESS. Lender and any of its officers, employees and/or agents
shall have the right, exercisable as frequently as Lender determines to be
appropriate, during normal business hours (or at such other times as may
reasonably be requested by Lender), to inspect the properties and facilities of
Borrower and to inspect, audit and make extracts from all of Borrower's records,
files and books of account. Borrower shall deliver any document or instrument
reasonably necessary for Lender to obtain records from any service bureau
maintaining records for Borrower, and shall maintain duplicate records or
supporting documentation on media, including, without limitation, computer tapes
and discs owned by Borrower. Borrower shall instruct its banking and other
financial institutions to make available to Lender such information and records
as Lender may reasonably request.

<PAGE>
2.10. TAXES. (1) Any and all payments by Borrower hereunder or under
the Note shall be made, in accordance with this Section 2.10, free and clear of
and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto,
excluding taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of Lender by the
jurisdiction under the laws of which Lender is organized or any political
subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions,
charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as "Taxes").
If Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of
any sum payable hereunder or under the Note to Lender, (i) the sum payable shall
be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section
2.10) Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no
such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, and (iii)
Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing or other
authority in accordance with applicable law.
(2) In addition, Borrower shall pay any present or future
stamp or documentary taxes or any other sales, transfer, excise, mortgage
recording or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any
payment made hereunder or under the Note or from the execution, sale, transfer,
delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to the Loan Documents and
any other agreements and instruments contemplated thereby (hereinafter referred
to as "Other Taxes").
(3) Borrower shall indemnify Lender for the full amount of
Taxes or Other Taxes (including without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes
imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.10) paid by
Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising
therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were
correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days
from the date such Lender makes written demand therefor.
(4) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes,
Borrower shall furnish to Lender, at its address referred to in Section 11.9,
the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.
(5) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement
of Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in
this Section 2.10 shall survive both (i) the payment in full of principal and
interest hereunder and under the Note and (ii) the termination of this
Agreement.
2.11. LENDER CONVERSION RIGHTS. Lender shall have, at Lender's sole
option, the right to convert all or any portion of the outstanding Loan amount,
plus the monetary value of all other Obligations owing by Borrower to Lender
under this Agreement or the Note, into Borrower's Common Stock upon the terms
and conditions set forth herein (the "Conversion Rights"):
(1) Number of Shares.
(1) Lender shall be entitled to convert all or any portion of
the entire unpaid balance of the Loan and the monetary value of all other
Obligations, at Lender's option, at any time into that number of fully-paid and
non-assessable shares of Borrower's Common Stock derived by dividing (i) the
amount to be converted by (ii) the Conversion Value, provided that any
fractional shares shall be paid in cash.
10
<PAGE>
(2) "Market Price", when used with reference to shares of
Borrower's Common Stock on any date, shall mean the closing price per share of
Common Stock on such date and, when used with reference to shares of Common
Stock for any period shall mean the average of the daily closing prices per
share of Common Stock for such period. If the Borrower's Common Stock is listed
or admitted to trading on a national securities exchange, the closing price
shall be the last sale price, regular way, or, in case no such sale takes place
on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, regular way, in
either case, as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting
system with respect to securities listed on the principal national securities
exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading or, if the
Borrower's Common Stock is not so listed on any national securities exchange, as
reported in the transaction reporting system applicable to securities designated
as a "national market system security" or "small cap market security" on the
Nasdaq Stock Market. If the Borrower's Common Stock is not publicly held or so
listed or designated, "Market Price" shall mean the fair market value per share
of Borrower's Common Stock as determined in good faith by the Borrower's Board
of Directors based on an opinion of an independent investment banking firm with
an established national reputation with respect to the valuation of securities.
(2) Mechanics of Conversion. To convert the outstanding Loan amount or
other Obligations into shares of Borrower's Common Stock, Lender shall deliver,
in accordance with Section 11.9, a copy of the fully executed notice of
conversion substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C to this Agreement
("Notice of Conversion") to Borrower, which notice shall specify the dollar
amount of the Loan or other Obligations to be converted, the applicable
conversion price and a calculation of the number of shares of Borrower's Common
Stock issuable upon such conversion prior to Midnight, New York City time (the
"Conversion Notice Deadline") on the date of conversion specified on the Notice
of Conversion (the "Conversion Date"). Borrower shall issue and deliver within
three (3) Business Days after delivery to Borrower of the Notice of Conversion
to Lender at the address of Lender (or such other address as may be specified by
Lender), a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Borrower's
Common Stock issuable upon such conversion.
(3) Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. Borrower shall at
all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares
of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the Conversion Rights of
Lender, such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be
sufficient to effect the conversion of the entire amount of all outstanding and
unpaid Obligations; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued
shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of the
entire amount of all outstanding and unpaid Obligations, Borrower shall take
such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient
for such purpose.
11
<PAGE>
(4) Corporate Change. The Conversion Value shall be appropriately
adjusted to reflect, as deemed equitable and appropriate by the Borrower's Board
of Directors, any stock dividend, stock split or share combination of the Common
Stock or any dividend or other distribution of assets to the holders of Common
Stock. In the event of a merger, reorganization, recapitalization or similar
event of or with respect to Borrower (a "Corporate Change") (other than a
Corporate Change in which Borrower is the surviving entity or in which all or
substantially all of the consideration received by the holders of the Borrower's
Common Stock upon such Corporate Change consists of cash or assets other than
securities issued by the acquiring entity or any affiliate thereof), the
Lender's Conversion Rights shall be assumed by the acquiring entity and
thereafter the outstanding and unpaid Obligations owing by Borrower to Lender
shall be convertible into such class and type of securities as Lender would have
received had Lender converted such Obligations immediately prior to such
Corporate Change.
(5) Representations and Warranties of Lender Upon Conversion. Lender
understands, and represents and warrants to Borrower, that:
(1) Upon exercise of its Conversion Rights, the Borrower will
issue its Common Stock to Lender in reliance on specific exemptions from the
registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and
that Borrower will be relying upon the truth and accuracy of the
representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of
Lender set forth herein to determine the applicability of such exemptions and
the suitability of Lender to acquire the Common Stock.
(2) The Common Stock has not been and will not be registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), and may only be
offered or sold pursuant to registration under the Act (which registration may
be pursuant to that Registration Rights Agreement, among Borrower, Lender and
other parties, dated December 3, 1996 or otherwise) or an available exemption
therefrom, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.
(3) The transaction contemplated by this Loan Agreement is not
part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of the Act.
(4) If Lender exercises its Conversion Rights, Lender will be
acquiring the Common Stock for its own account and not with a view to, or for
sale in connection with, any "distribution" (as such term is used in Section
2(11) of the Act) thereof.

of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification (except
for jurisdictions in which such failure to so qualify or to be in good standing
would not have a Material Adverse Effect); (iii) has the requisite corporate
power and authority and the legal right to own, pledge, mortgage or otherwise
encumber and operate its properties, to lease the property it operates under
lease, and to conduct its business as now, heretofore and proposed to be
conducted; (iv) except as indicated on Schedule 4.1(iv) hereto, has all material

filings with, and has given all material notices to, all Governmental
Authorities having jurisdiction, to the extent required for such ownership,
operation and conduct; (v) is in compliance with its certificate of
incorporation and bylaws; and (vi) is in compliance with all applicable
provisions of law where the failure to comply would have a Material Adverse
Effect.

4.4. CORPORATE POWER; AUTHORIZATION; ENFORCEABLE OBLIGATIONS. The
execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of the Loan Documents, Ancillary
Agreements and all instruments and documents to be delivered by Borrower, to the
extent it is a party thereto, hereunder and thereunder: (i) are within
Borrower's corporate power; (ii) have been duly authorized by all necessary or
proper corporate action; (iii) are not in contravention of any provision of
Borrower's certificates or articles of incorporation or bylaws; (iv) will not
violate any law or regulation, or any order or decree of any court or
governmental instrumentality in any material respect; (v) will not conflict with
or result in the breach or termination of, constitute a default under or
accelerate any performance required by, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust,
lease, agreement or other instrument to which Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries is a party or by which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any
of their respective properties is bound; (vi) will not result in the creation or
imposition of any Lien upon any of the property of Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries; and (vii) do not require the consent or approval of any
Governmental Authority or any other Person. Each of the Loan Documents has been
duly executed and delivered for the benefit of or on behalf of Borrower and each
constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower, to the extent it
is a party thereto, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.
4.5. SOLVENCY. After giving pro forma effect to the Initial Advance and
Additional Advances, if made on the Closing Date, and the payment of all
estimated legal, accounting and other fees related hereto, Borrower will be
Solvent as of and on the Closing Date.
4.6. LABOR MATTERS. There are no strikes or other labor disputes
against Borrower pending or, to Borrower's knowledge, threatened which would
have a Material Adverse Effect.
4.7. INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT. Neither Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries is an "investment company" or an "affiliated person" of, or
"promoter" or "principal underwriter" for, an "investment company", as such
terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The making
of the Advances by Lender, the application of the proceeds and repayment thereof
by Borrower and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents will not violate any provision of such
Act or any rule, regulation or order issued by the Securities and Exchange
Commission thereunder.
4.8. MARGIN REGULATIONS. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries
owns any "margin security," as that term is defined in Regulations G and U of
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve
Board"), and the proceeds of the Advances will be used only for the purposes
contemplated hereunder. The Advances will not be used, directly or indirectly,
for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin security, for the purpose
of reducing or retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred to
purchase or carry any margin security or for any other purpose which might cause
any of the loans under this Agreement to be considered a "purpose credit" within
the meaning of Regulations G, T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board. Borrower
will not take or permit any Subsidiary or agent acting on its behalf to take any
action which might cause this Agreement or any document or instrument delivered
pursuant hereto to violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.
4.9. NO LITIGATION. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.9 hereto, no
action, claim or proceeding is now pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower,
threatened against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries at law, in equity or
otherwise, before any court, board, commission, agency or instrumentality of any
federal, state, or local government or of any agency or subdivision thereof, or
before any arbitrator or panel of arbitrators, which, if determined adversely,
could have a Material Adverse Effect, nor to the knowledge of Borrower does a
state of facts exist which is reasonably likely to give rise to such
proceedings.
15
<PAGE>
4.10. PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, COPYRIGHTS AND LICENSES. Borrower and each
of its Subsidiaries owns all material patents, patent applications, copyrights,
trademarks, trademark applications, and know-how (collectively, "Intangible
Property") necessary to continue to conduct its business as heretofore conducted
by it, now conducted by it and proposed to be conducted by it, each of which is
listed, together with Patent and Trademark Office application or registration
numbers, where applicable, on Schedule 4.10 hereto. Further, (i) Borrower and
each of its Subsidiaries has good and lawful title to the Intangible Property
owned by it (subject to the licenses set forth on Schedule 4.10(d) hereto); (ii)
to Borrower's knowledge, the Intangible Property is valid and subsisting and is
enforceable; (iii) to Borrower's knowledge, there are no actual or threatened
claims by third parties regarding the Intangible Property; and (iv) to
Borrower's knowledge, the Intangible Property does not infringe or otherwise
violate any rights of any third party, except where any violation or
infringement would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
4.11. NO MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT. No event has occurred and is
continuing which has had or could have a Material Adverse Effect.
5. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND INFORMATION
5.1. REPORTS AND NOTICES. Borrower covenants that from and after the

such month and the related statements of income and cash flows for that portion

unaudited consolidated statements of income of Borrower for such month, all

and correct and present fairly in accordance with GAAP (subject to normal
year-end adjustments), the financial position, the results of operations and the
statements of cash flows of Borrower as at the end of such month and for the
period then ended, and that there was no Default or Event of Default in
existence as of such time.
(2) As soon as practicable, but in any event within two (2)
Business Days after Borrower becomes aware of the existence of any Default or
Event of Default, or any development or other information which would have a
Material Adverse Effect, telephonic or telegraphic notice specifying the nature
of such Default or Event of Default or development or information, including the
anticipated effect thereof, which notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing
within five (5) days.

purchased), financial condition or prospects as Lender may, from time to time,
reasonably request.
5.2. COMMUNICATION WITH ACCOUNTANTS. Borrower authorizes Lender to
communicate directly with its (or any of its Subsidiaries') independent
certified public accountants and tax advisors and authorizes those accountants
to disclose to Lender any and all financial statements and other supporting
financial documents and schedules including copies of any management letter with
respect to the business, financial condition and other affairs of Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries. At Lender's request, Borrower shall deliver a letter
addressed to such accountants and tax advisors instructing them to comply with
the provisions of this Section 5.2.

17
<PAGE>
(2) Borrower, on behalf of itself or any Subsidiary, may in
good faith contest, by proper legal actions or proceedings diligently pursued,

6.2(a)(ii), provided that at the time of commencement of any such action or
proceeding, and during the pendency thereof (i) adequate reserves with respect
thereto are maintained on the books of Borrower, in accordance with GAAP; (ii)
such contest operates to suspend collection of the contested Charges or claims
and is maintained and prosecuted continuously with diligence; and (iii) Lender
has not advised Borrower in writing that Lender reasonably believes that
nonpayment or nondischarge thereof would have a Material Adverse Effect.
Borrower shall promptly pay or discharge such contested Charges and all
additional charges, interest, penalties and expenses, if any, and shall deliver
to Lender evidence acceptable to Lender of such compliance, payment or
discharge, if such contest is terminated or discontinued adversely to Borrower.
(3) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
Section 6.2(b) above, Borrower shall have the right to pay the Charges or claims
arising under Section 6.2(a)(ii) and in good faith contest, by proper legal
actions or proceedings, the validity or amount of such Charges or claims.
6.3. BOOKS AND RECORDS. Borrower shall keep, and shall cause its
Subsidiaries to keep, all books, accounts and records in the ordinary course of
business.
6.4. LITIGATION. Borrower shall notify Lender in writing, promptly upon
learning thereof, of any litigation commenced against Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, and of the institution against any of them of any suit or
administrative proceeding that may have a Material Adverse Effect.
6.5. INSURANCE. Borrower shall maintain insurance covering, without
limitation, fire, theft, burglary, public liability, property damage, product

Subsidiaries to, comply in all material respects with all federal, state and
local laws and regulations applicable to it.
6.7. SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURE. From time to time as may be necessary (in
the event that such information is not otherwise delivered by Borrower to Lender
pursuant to this Agreement), so long as there are Obligations outstanding
hereunder, Borrower will supplement each Schedule (if any) or representation
herein with respect to any matter hereafter arising which, if existing or
occurring at the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set
forth or described in such Schedule or as an exception to such representation or
which is necessary to correct any information in such Schedule or representation
which has been rendered inaccurate thereby; provided, however, that such
supplement to such Schedule or representation shall not be deemed an amendment
thereof unless otherwise consented to by the Lender.

or be a party to any transaction with any Affiliate of Borrower, except in the
ordinary course of and pursuant to the reasonable requirements of Borrower's or
such Subsidiary's business and upon fair and reasonable terms that are fully
disclosed to Lender and are no less favorable to Borrower or such Subsidiary
than would be obtained in a comparable arm's-length transaction with a Person
not an Affiliate of Borrower.
7.3. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of
its Subsidiaries to, take or omit to take any action, which act or omission
would constitute (i) a default or an event of default pursuant to, or

material default or an event of default pursuant to, or noncompliance with any
other contract, lease, mortgage, deed of trust or instrument to which it is a
party or by which it or any of its property is bound, or any document creating a
Lien, unless such default, event of default or non-compliance would not have a
Material Adverse Effect.

under this Agreement shall in any way affect or impair the powers, obligations,
duties, rights and liabilities of Borrower or the rights of Lender relating to
any transaction or event occurring prior to such termination. Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein or in any other Loan Document, all
undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties and representations contained in
the Loan Documents shall survive such termination or cancellation and shall
continue in full force and effect until such time as all of the Obligations have

thereof.
(4) A default shall occur under any other agreement, document
or instrument to which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by

deemed made (including those made or deemed made pursuant to Section 3.2).
(6) Any of the assets of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
shall be attached, seized, levied upon or subjected to a writ or distress

<PAGE>

Borrower or any Subsidiary of Borrower in a court having competent jurisdiction
seeking a decree or order in respect of Borrower or any Subsidiary of Borrower
(i) under title 11 of the United States Code, as now constituted or hereafter
amended, or any other applicable federal, state or foreign bankruptcy or other
similar law, (ii) appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee,
trustee or sequestrator (or similar official) of Borrower or any Subsidiary of
Borrower or of any substantial part of its or their properties, or (iii)

9.2. REMEDIES. If any Event of Default specified in Section 9.1 shall
have occurred and be continuing, Lender may, by written notice to Borrower and
the lender with respect to any Senior Debt (the "Senior Lender") declare all
Obligations to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon all such Obligations,
without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which
are expressly waived by Borrower, shall become due and payable (x) if none of
the Senior Debt is outstanding, immediately and (y) if any Senior Debt is
outstanding, upon the first to occur of (1) acceleration of any Senior Debt or
(2) the fifth Business Day after receipt by Borrower and the Senior Lender of
such written notice given hereunder, unless on or prior to the date such amounts
become due and payable Borrower shall have cured the default, event or condition
resulting in such Event of Default and no other Event of Default is then
continuing and Borrower shall have given notice of such cure to Lender;
provided, however, that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in
Section 9.1(f), (g) or (h) hereof, such Obligations shall become due and payable
without declaration, notice or demand by Lender. Notwithstanding the above, at
any time after such declaration of acceleration has been made and before payment
in full of the Obligations, Lender, by written notice to Borrower, may rescind
and annul such declaration and its consequences if all Events of Default, other
than the non-payment of principal of the Loan which has become due solely by
such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived.
9.3. WAIVERS BY BORROWER. Except as otherwise provided for in this
Agreement and applicable law, Borrower waives (i) presentment, demand and

acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel of its choice with respect to
this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the transactions evidenced by this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
21
<PAGE>
9.4. RIGHT OF SET-OFF. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of any Event of Default, Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time
to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law and subject to Section 10, to
set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing
by Lender to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against any and all of
the obligations of Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, and
the Note held by Lender irrespective of whether or not Lender shall have made
any demand under this Agreement or such Note and although such obligations may
be unmatured. Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower after any such set-off
and application made by Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such
notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights
of Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies
(including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which Lender may have.
10. SUBORDINATION
10.1. LOAN SUBORDINATED TO SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS. Borrower covenants, and
Lender likewise covenants, that all payments of the principal of (and premium,
if any), and interest on, the Loan and all other Obligations by Borrower
pursuant to this Agreement (collectively the "Subordinated Indebtedness") shall
be subordinated in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10 to the
prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of Borrower. Notwithstanding
the foregoing sentence, the monetary Obligations hereunder shall be pari passu
with the "Indebtedness" and all monetary "Obligations" under the Second Amended
and Restated Loan Agreement (as such terms are defined therein). For purposes of
this Section 10, the term "Senior Indebtedness" shall mean the Senior Debt of
Borrower and shall include principal of and premium, if any, and interest
(including interest accruing at the rate provided for in the documents
evidencing such Senior Indebtedness after the commencement of any proceeding of
the type referred to in Section 10.2(a) hereof, whether or not an allowed claim
in such proceeding) on all loans and other extensions of credit under, and all
expenses, fees, reimbursements, indemnities and other amounts owing pursuant to,
all such Senior Debt of the Borrower.
10.2. PRIORITY AND PAYMENT OVER OF PROCEEDS IN CERTAIN EVENTS.
22
<PAGE>
(1) Upon payment or distribution of assets or securities of
Borrower of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, upon
any dissolution or winding up or total or partial liquidation or reorganization
of Borrower, whether voluntary or involuntary, or in bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership or other proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of
creditors or any other marshaling of the assets and liabilities of Borrower, all
Senior Indebtedness shall first be paid in full in cash, or payment provided for
in cash or cash equivalents in a manner satisfactory to the holders of Senior
Indebtedness, before any direct or indirect payments or distributions,
including, without limitation, by exercise of set-off, of any cash, property or
securities on account of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on the
Subordinated Indebtedness and to that end the holders of Senior Indebtedness
shall be entitled to receive (pro rata on the basis of the respective amounts of
Senior Indebtedness held by them) directly, for application to the payment
thereof (to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full after
giving effect to any substantially concurrent payment or distribution to or
provision for payment to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness), any payment
or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or
securities, in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness. The holders of Senior
Indebtedness are hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on
behalf of Lender if it does not file, and there is not otherwise filed on behalf
of the Lender, a proper claim or proof of claim in the form required in any such
proceeding prior to 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim
or claims.
(2) No direct or indirect payment by or on behalf of Borrower
of principal of (premium, if any), or interest on, the Loan, whether pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement, upon acceleration or otherwise, shall be made if at
the time of such payment there exists (i) a default in the payment of all or any
portion of principal of (premium, if any), interest on, fees or other amounts
owing in connection with any Senior Indebtedness, or (ii) any other default or
event of default under any document or instrument evidencing the Senior
Indebtedness as the same may be amended, modified or otherwise refinanced (and
Lender has received notice thereof from the agent for or representative of the
holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Senior
Indebtedness (the "Representative") as provided below), and in either case such
default or event of default shall not have been cured or waived in writing;
provided, however, that if within the period specified in the next sentence with
respect to a default or event of default referred to in clause (ii) above, the
holders of Senior Indebtedness have not declared the Senior Indebtedness to be
immediately due and payable (or have declared such Senior Indebtedness to be
immediately due and payable and within such period have rescinded such
acceleration), then and in that event, payment of principal of, and interest on,
the Loan shall be resumed. With respect to any default or event of default under
clause (ii) above the period referred to in the preceding sentence shall
commence upon receipt by Lender of a written notice or notices (which shall
specify all defaults and events of default existing under such documents or
instruments on the date of such notice and of which the Representative,
whichever is giving such notice, had actual knowledge at such time) of the
commencement of such period from the Representative, and shall end at the
completion of the 180th day after the beginning of such period. Only one such
180 day period may commence within any 360 consecutive days. Upon termination of
any such period, Borrower shall resume payments on account of the principal of
(premium, if any), and interest on, the Loan, and on account of all other
Subordinated Indebtedness, subject to the provisions of Sections 10.1 and 10.2
hereof.
(3) (1) In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing
provision prohibiting such payment or distribution, Lender shall have received
any payment on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness at a time when such
payment is prohibited by such provision before the Senior Indebtedness is paid
in full, then and in such event, such payment or distribution shall be received
and held in trust by Lender apart from its other assets and paid over or
delivered to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the
extent necessary to pay in full in cash the principal of (premium, if any), and
interest on, such Senior Indebtedness in accordance with its terms and after
giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such
Senior Indebtedness.
23
<PAGE>
(2) Nothing contained in this Section 10 will limit
the right of the Lender to take any action to accelerate the maturity of the
Subordinated Indebtedness pursuant to Section 9.2 hereof.
(3) Upon any payment or distribution of assets or
securities referred to in this Section 10, Lender shall be entitled to rely upon
any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which such
dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending,
and upon a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating
trustee, agent or other person making any such payment or distribution,
delivered to Lender for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to
participate in such distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other
Indebtedness of Borrower, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or
amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to
this Section 10.
10.3. RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS NOT TO BE IMPAIRED. No
right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce
subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or
impaired by any act or failure to act by any such holder, or by any
noncompliance by Borrower with the terms and provisions and covenants herein
regardless of any knowledge thereof such holder may have or otherwise be charged
with.
The provisions of this Section 10 are intended to be for the
benefit of, and shall be enforceable directly by, the holders of the Senior
Indebtedness. Borrower and Lender acknowledges that the holders of the Senior
Indebtedness are or will be relying upon the provisions of this Section 10 in
extending such Senior Indebtedness.
10.4. SUBROGATION . Upon the payment in full of all Senior
Indebtedness, Lender shall be subrogated to the extent of the payments or
distributions made to the holders of, or otherwise applied to payment of, the
Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10 and to the
rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or
distributions of assets of Borrower made on the Senior Indebtedness until the
Loan and all other monetary Obligations shall be paid in full; and for the
purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to holders of Senior
Indebtedness of any cash, property or securities to which Lender would be
entitled except for the provisions of this Section 10, and no payment over
pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10 to holders of Senior Indebtedness
by Lender, shall, as between Borrower, their creditors other than holders of
Senior Indebtedness and Lender, be deemed to be payment by Borrower to or on
account of Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of this
Section 10 are solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the
holders of Senior Indebtedness, on the one hand, and Lender, on the other hand.

<PAGE>
If any payment or distribution to which Lender would otherwise
have been entitled but for the provisions of this Section 10 shall have been
applied, pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10, to the payment of Senior
Indebtedness, then and in such case, Lender shall be entitled to receive from
the holders of Senior Indebtedness at the time outstanding any payments or
distributions received by such holders of Senior Indebtedness in excess of the
amount sufficient to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full.
10.5. OBLIGATIONS OF BORROWER UNCONDITIONAL. Nothing contained in this
Section 10 or elsewhere in this Agreement or in the Note is intended to or shall
impair, as between Borrower and Lender, the obligations of Borrower, which are
absolute and unconditional, to pay to Lender the principal of (premium, if any),
and interest on, the Loan and all other monetary Obligations as and when the
same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended
to or shall affect the relative rights of Lender and creditors of Borrower other
than the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or
therein prevent any Holder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by
applicable law upon the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default under this
Agreement, subject to the rights, if any, under this Section 10 of the holders
of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of Borrower
received upon the exercise of any such remedy.
The failure to make a payment on account of principal of, or
interest on, the Loan by reason of any provision of this Section 10 shall not be
construed as preventing the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default
hereunder.
10.6. NOTICE TO LENDER . Borrower shall give prompt written notice to
Lender of any fact known to Borrower which would prohibit the making of any
payment on or in respect of the Loan, but failure to give such notice shall not
affect the subordination of the Subordinated Indebtedness to the Senior
Indebtedness provided in this Section 10. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 10 or any other provision of this Agreement, Lender shall not be charged
with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of
any payment to or in respect of the Loan, unless and until Lender shall have
received written notice thereof from Borrower, the Representative or other
holder of Senior Indebtedness, and, prior to the receipt of any such written
notice, subject to the provisions of this Section 10, Lender shall be entitled
in all respects to assume no such facts exist. Nothing contained in this Section
10.6 shall limit the right of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to recover
payments as contemplated by Sections 10.1 and 10.2.
10.7. RIGHT OF LENDER AS HOLDER OF SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS. Lender in its
individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this
Section 10 with respect to any Senior Indebtedness which may at any time be held
by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and
nothing in this Agreement shall deprive Lender of any of its rights as such
holder.
10.8. REINSTATEMENT. The provisions of this Section 10 shall continue
to be effective or be reinstated, and the Senior Indebtedness shall not be
deemed to be paid in full, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any
of the Senior Indebtedness is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the
holder thereof upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower
or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

Documents or any portion thereof including, without limitation, Borrower's
rights, title, interests, remedies, powers and duties hereunder or thereunder.
Borrower hereby consents to Lender's sale of participations, assignment,

any part of the Note, Borrower shall, upon the request of Lender, issue a new
Note to effectuate such assignment or transfer.

existence of an Event of Default, Lender shall employ counsel or other advisors
for advice or other representation or shall incur reasonable legal or other
costs and expenses in connection with any litigation, contest, dispute, suit,
proceeding or action (whether instituted by Lender, Borrower or any other
Person) in any way relating to any of the Loan Documents or any other agreements
to be executed or delivered in connection herewith, including any future
amendments, supplements, waivers or consents at the request of Borrower, then,

others in any way or respect arising in connection with or relating to any of

<PAGE>
11.3. NO WAIVER BY LENDER. Lender's failure, at any time or times, to
require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or in
any of the other Loan Documents shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of
Lender thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance therewith. Any
suspension or waiver by Lender of an Event of Default by Borrower under the Loan
Documents shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Event of Default by
Borrower under this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents whether the
same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether of the same or of a different
type. None of the undertakings, agreements, warranties, covenants and
representations of Borrower contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents and no Event of Default by Borrower under this Agreement and no
defaults by Borrower under any of the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to
have been suspended or waived by Lender, unless such suspension or waiver is by
an instrument in writing signed by an officer of Lender and directed to Borrower
specifying such suspension or waiver.
11.4. REMEDIES. Lender's rights and remedies under this Agreement shall
be cumulative and nonexclusive of any other rights and remedies which Lender may
have under any other agreement, including without limitation, the Loan
Documents, by operation of law or otherwise.
11.5. SEVERABILITY. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement
shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or
invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent
of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such
provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
11.6. PARTIES. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be
binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the successors of Borrower and Lender
and the assigns, transferees and endorsees of Lender.
11.7. CONFLICT OF TERMS. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents by specific reference to the applicable
provisions of this Agreement, if any provision contained in this Agreement is in
conflict with, or inconsistent with, any provision in any of the other Loan
Documents, the provision contained in this Agreement shall govern and control.

PROMISSORY NOTE
$25,000,000 New York, New York
December 17, 1998
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned INTEK GLOBAL CORPORATION, a
Delaware corporation (hereinafter referred to as "Borrower"), hereby promises to
pay to the order of SECURICOR COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED, a corporation formed under
the laws of England and Wales ("Lender"), at 15 Carshalton Road, Sutton Surrey,
SM14LD, or at such other place as the holder of this Note may designate from
time to time in writing, in lawful money of the United States of America and in
immediately available funds, the amount of Twenty-Five Million Dollars
($25,000,000), or such lesser principal amount of outstanding Advances under the
Loan Agreement (as hereinafter defined) plus the unpaid amount of any interest
on the unpaid principal amount of the Note outstanding from time to time from
the Initial Advance Date at the rate or rates provided in the Loan Agreement.
This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Loan Agreement, dated as
of February 19, 1999, between Borrower and Lender (the "Loan Agreement"), to
which reference is hereby made for a statement of all of the terms and
conditions under which the Advances evidenced hereby are made. All capitalized
terms, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings ascribed to them
in the Loan Agreement.
The principal amount of the indebtedness evidenced hereby shall be
payable on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the Loan Agreement.
Interest thereon shall accrue on a daily basis at the rate specified in the Loan
Agreement and shall be capitalized at the end of each calendar quarter and will
be paid in the manner set forth in the Loan Agreement. All accrued and unpaid
interest shall be due and payable on the Repayment Date.

continue to accrue at the then applicable rate during such extension.
The rights of Lender under this Note are subordinate and junior to the

FORM OF NOTICE AND AGREEMENT OF CONVERSION
(To Be Executed Upon Exercise Of Lender's Conversion Rights)
The undersigned Securicor Communications Limited ("Lender"), hereby
irrevocably elects to exercise its Conversion Rights under Section 2.11 of the
Loan Agreement between Lender and Intek Global Corporation ("Borrower"), dated
February __, 1999 (the "Loan Agreement") to purchase ___ shares of Borrower's
Common Stock in exchange for $____________ of the outstanding and unpaid Loan
amount and other Obligations owing by Borrower to Lender as payment for such
shares in the amount of $________ per share of Common Stock in accordance with
the terms thereof.
Lender hereby acknowledges, represents and warrants to (which
representations and warranties will be true and correct as of the Conversion
Date as if made on such Date), and agrees with, Borrower as follows:
1. Lender is acquiring the Common Stock for its own account as
principal, for investment purposes only, and not with a view to, or for, resale,
distribution or fractionalization thereof, in whole or in part;
2. Lender acknowledges its understanding that the offering and sale of
the Common Stock is intended to be exempt from registration under the 1933 Act
by virtue of Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act and the provisions of Regulation D
thereunder. In furtherance thereof, Lender represents and warrants to and agrees
with Borrower as follows:
(a) Lender has the financial ability to bear the economic risk
of its investment, has adequate means for providing for its current needs and
has no need for liquidity with respect to its investment in Borrower;
(b) Lender is a corporation, trust, estate benefit plan,
partnership other entity, which comes within a category of "accredited investor"
as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the 1933 Act (17
C.F.R. 230.501(a));
3. Lender:
<PAGE>
(a) has relied on all of Borrower's reports and filings since
January 1, 1996 under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "1934 Act") and the representations of Borrower set forth in the
Loan Agreement (the "Documents") and any other documents which may have been
requested and has carefully read the Documents and understands and has evaluated
the risks of a purchase of the Common Stock, and has relied solely (except as
indicated in subsections (b) and (c) below) on the information contained in the
Documents;
(b) has been provided an opportunity to obtain additional
information concerning Borrower and all other information to the extent Borrower
possesses such information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or
expense;
(c) has been given the opportunity to ask questions of and
receive answers from Borrower concerning the terms and conditions of this
investment, and has been given the opportunity to obtain such additional
information necessary to verify the accuracy of the information contained in the
Documents or that which was otherwise provided in order for Lender to evaluate
the merits and risks of a purchase of the Common Stock to the extent Borrower
possesses such information or can acquire it without unreasonable efforts or
expense, and has not been furnished any other offering literature or prospectus
except as mentioned herein;
(d) has not relied on any oral representation or oral
information in connection with the offering of the Common Stock which is not
contained in the Documents; and
(e) has determined that the Common Stock is a suitable
investment and that Lender could bear a complete loss of its investment;
4. Lender represents, warrants and agrees that it will not sell or
otherwise transfer the Common Stock unless registered under the 1933 Act (which
registration may be pursuant to that Registration Rights Agreement dated
December 3, 1996 or otherwise) or in reliance upon an exemption therefrom, and
fully understands and agrees that it must bear the economic risk of its purchase
for an indefinite period of time because, among other reasons, the Common Stock
has not been registered under the 1933 Act or under the securities laws of
certain states and, therefore, cannot be resold, pledged, assigned or otherwise
disposed of unless they are subsequently registered under the 1933 Act and under
the applicable securities laws of such states or an exemption from such
registration is available. Lender also understands that except for Borrower's
independent obligation to remain current in its filings under the 1934 Act, as
amended, Borrower is under no obligation to register the Common Stock on its
behalf or to assist the Lender in complying with any exemption from registration
under the 1933 Act. Lender further understands that sales or transfers of the
Common Stock or underlying securities are restricted by the provisions of state
securities laws;
5. The person signing this Notice and Agreement of Conversion on behalf
of such entity has been duly authorized by such entity to do so;
6. No representation or warranties have been made to Lender by
Borrower, or any officer, employee, agent, affiliate or subsidiary of Borrower,
other than the representations of Borrower herein;
<PAGE>
7. The execution and delivery by Lender of, and the performance by
Lender of its obligations under this Notice will not contravene any provision of
applicable law or the charter documents of Lender or any agreement or other
instrument binding upon Lender, or any judgment, order or decree of any
governmental body, agency or court having jurisdiction over Lender, and no
consent, approval, authorization or order of, or qualification with, any
governmental body or agency is required for the performance by Lender of its
obligations under this Notice in accordance with its terms;
8. Lender has been duly organized, is validly existing and is in good
standing under the laws of England and Wales. Lender has full corporate power
and authority to enter into this Notice and Agreement of Conversion and this
Notice and Agreement of Conversion has been duly and validly authorized,
executed and delivered by Lender and is a valid and binding obligation of
Lender, enforceable against Lender in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforcement may be limited by the laws effecting creditors rights, generally and
general equitable principles.
9. The foregoing representations, warranties and agreements shall
survive the issuance of the certificate and shares of Common Stock to Lender.
The undersigned requests that a certificate for such shares be
registered in the name of _______________________, whose address is
_____________________________, and that such shares be delivered to
________________________, whose address is _______________.
