ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

     On May 5, 2000, e-MedSoft.com (the "Company") acquired Illumea
Corporation ("Illumea"), which develops and markets Internet-based image
sharing and management solutions for the medical and life sciences industries,
through a merger with a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
In consideration for this acquisition, the Company issued 1,299,185 shares of
the Company's Common Stock valued at $15,000,000.  The Agreement and Plan of
Merger and Reorganization (the "Agreement") also provides that additional
shares of Common Stock may be issued in the future under certain earn-out
provisions.

     Illumea develops and markets Internet-based image sharing and management
solutions in the medical and life sciences industries.  Illumea's proprietary,
patent-pending image transmission technology allows physicians and researchers
to view, manipulate, archive and analyze tissue data both remotely and locally
through a scalable and flexible Web-based platform.  Illumea's solutions are
intended to improve patient outcomes and efficiency for providers, payers and
research organizations.

     Founded at the University of Southern California School of Medicine,
Illumea's solutions have been installed at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer
Center; University of Maryland, Genetics and Lab Medicine; and other leading
academic and commercial institutions in both the United States and in Asia.

     Illumea's products will be marketed both as stand-alone solutions, as
part of e-MedSoft.com's Multi-Media Division's medical network solutions, and
in conjunction with e-MedSoft.com's broad ASP structure.

     According to Illumea's unaudited preliminary financials, during 1999,
Illumea had sales of approximately $125,000 and a net loss of approximately
$1,800,000, and at December 31, 1999, Illumea had approximately $1,074,000 in
assets and $707,000 in liabilities.

2000 (the "Agreement"), among e-MedSoft.com, a corporation organized and
existing under the laws of the State of Nevada ("Parent"), Illumea Acquisition
Corporation, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State

Illumea Corporation, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of
the State of Delaware (the "Company");

                             W I T N E S S E T H:

      WHEREAS, the boards of directors of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company
have each determined that it is consistent with and in furtherance of their
respective long-term business strategies and fair to and in the best interests
of their respective stockholders to combine the respective businesses of
Parent and the Company by means of a merger (the "Merger") of Merger Sub with
and into the Company upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
herein and in accordance with the Delaware Corporation Law (the "Delaware

and regulations promulgated thereunder, the "Code");

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, and
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are
hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties
hereto hereby agree as follows:

                                    ARTICLE I
                                   THE MERGER

     1.1     The Merger.  Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the Delaware Corporation Law,
at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company.
As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub
shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving corporation of the
Merger (the "Surviving Corporation").

     1.2     Closing.   Unless this Agreement shall have been terminated and
the Merger shall have been abandoned pursuant to Section 7.1 and subject to
the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII, the
consummation of the Merger shall take place as promptly as practicable (and in
any event within three business days) after satisfaction or waiver of the
conditions set forth in Article VII, at a closing (the "Closing") to be held
at the offices of e-MedSoft.com, 20750 Ventura Boulevard, Suite 320, Woodland
Hills, California 91364, unless another date, time or place is agreed to by
the Company and Parent.





<PAGE>


     1.3     Effective Time.  At the time of the Closing, the parties shall
cause the Merger to be consummated by filing articles of merger (the "Articles
of Merger") with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in such form
as required by, and executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of,
the Delaware Corporation Law (the date and time of such filing, or such later
time as may be agreed by the parties hereto and specified in the Articles of
Merger, being the "Effective Time").

     1.4     Effect of the Merger.  At the Effective Time, the effect of the
Merger shall be as provided in the applicable provisions of the Delaware
Corporation Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject
thereto, at the Effective Time, except as otherwise provided herein, all the
property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger
Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and
duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and
duties of the Surviving Corporation, and the Parent shall own all of the
issued and outstanding stock of the Surviving Corporation and shall have full
legal control over the Surviving Corporation.

     1.5     Certificate of Incorporation; Bylaws; Directors and Officers of
Surviving Corporation.  Unless otherwise agreed by the Company and Parent
prior to the Effective Time, at the Effective Time:

          (a)     the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company,
as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the certificate
of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter
amended as provided by Law and such certificate of incorporation or bylaws;

          (b)     the officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the
Effective Time shall be the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation
until their successors are elected or appointed and qualified or until their
resignation or removal; and

          (c)     the directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the
Effective Time shall be the initial directors of the Surviving Corporation.

                                   ARTICLE II
                CONVERSION OF SECURITIES; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

     2.1     Conversion of Securities.  At the Effective Time, by virtue of
the Merger and without any action on the part of Merger Sub, the Company or
the holders of any of the following securities, and in addition to any
consideration that may become payable pursuant to Section 2.2:

          (a)     Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Dissenting Shares) and
all rights in respect thereof shall forthwith cease to exist and shall be
converted into and become exchangeable for the number of shares of Parent
Common Stock equal to the product of (x) one divided by the number of shares
of the Company's Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Time and (y) the quotient of Eleven Million One Hundred Thirty-Three
Thousand Three Hundred Fifty Six Dollars ($11,133,356) divided by the average
closing price of the Parent's Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange
during the thirty (30) trading days ending two days before the Effective Time
(the "Common Exchange Ratio").

          (b)     Each share of Series A Preferred Stock of Company issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Dissenting
Shares) and all rights in respect thereof shall forthwith cease to exist and
shall be converted into and become exchangeable for the number of shares of
Parent Common Stock equal to the product of (x) one divided by the number of

                                     2
<PAGE>


shares of the Company's Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior
to the Effective Time and (y) the quotient of Eight Hundred Twenty-Three
Thousand Six Hundred Forty-Four Dollars ($823,644) divided by the average
closing price of the Parent's Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange
during the thirty (30) trading days ending two days before the Effective Time
(the "Series A Exchange Ratio").

          (c)     Each share of Series B Preferred Stock of Company issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Dissenting
Shares) and all rights in respect thereof shall forthwith cease to exist and
shall be converted into and become exchangeable for the number of shares of
Parent Common Stock equal to the product of (x) one divided by the number of
shares of the Company's Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior
to the Effective Time and (y) the quotient of Three Million Forty-Three
Thousand Dollars ($3,043,000) divided by the average closing price of the
Parent's Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange during the thirty (30)
trading days ending two days before the Effective Time (the "Series B Exchange
Ratio").

          (d)     Subject to the other terms of this Section 2, each Option to
purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company held by an employee, director
or consultant of the Company (the "Company Options") outstanding immediately
prior to the Effective Time shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any
action on the part of any holder thereof, be converted into the right to
acquire that number of shares of Parent Common Stock determined by multiplying
the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock for which such Company
Options are exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Common
Exchange Ratio, at an exercise price per share of Parent Common Stock equal to
the exercise price per share of such Company Options divided by the Common
Exchange Ratio, subject to the provisions of Section 2.4 regarding the
elimination of fractional shares.  The number of shares of Parent Common Stock
subject to such option shall be subject to increase pursuant to Section 2.2,
with the number of additional shares being equal to the number of
Earn-Out-Shares that correspond to the full number of shares subject to such
option.  Such Company Options shall be assumed by Parent under the terms of
Parent's 1999 Stock Option Plan.

          (e)     Each share of common stock, no par value, of Merger Sub
issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and all rights
in respect thereof shall forthwith cease to exist and shall be converted into
and become exchangeable for one newly and validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

     2.2     Earn-Out Shares.

          (a)     In addition to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock
set forth in Section 2.1 above, but subject to certain conditions set forth
below, Parent shall issue to the holders of the Company's Common Stock, Series
A Preferred Stock and/or Series B Preferred Stock converted pursuant to
Section 2.1 (the "Company Stockholders"), as additional merger consideration,
an additional number of shares of Parent Common Stock (the "Earn-Out Shares")
based upon Company's gross sales (the "Milestones") for each of the fiscal
years ending on March 31, 2001 and March 31, 2002 (the "Earn-Out Period")
(calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals on an
accrual basis).  The Earn-Out Shares shall be cumulative with respect to each
separate Milestone listed below and the corresponding additional
consideration.  For example, if the Company's gross sales for fiscal 2002 were
$30,000,000, the minimum number of Earn-Out Shares issuable would be
3,000,000.  The Earn-Out Shares shall be calculated as follows:

                    Cumulative

       Ending          Year                     Earn-Out

      3/31/01      $ 3,000,000     The greater of (a) 150,000 shares of
                                   Parent Common Stock or (b) that number
                                   of shares of Parent Common Stock with a
                                   value equal to $3,000,000

      3/31/02      $10,000,000     The greater of (a) 500,000 shares of
                                   Parent Common Stock or (b) that number
                                   of shares of Parent Common Stock with a
                                   value equal to $10,000,000

      3/31/02      $20,000,000     The greater of (a) 1,000,000 shares of
                                   Parent Common Stock or (b) that number of
                                   shares of Parent Common Stock with a value
                                   equal to $20,000,000

      3/31/02      $30,000,000     The greater of (a) 1,500,000 shares of
                                   Parent Common Stock or (b) that number of
                                   shares of Parent Common Stock with a value
                                   equal to $30,000,000

      3/31/02      $40,000,000     The greater of (a) 500,000 shares of Parent
                                   Common Stock or (b) that number of shares
                                   of Parent Common Stock with a value equal
                                   to $10,000,000

          (b)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
Section 2.2(a) above, in no event shall the total number of shares of Parent
Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 2.2(a) above, together with the
total number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to
Sections 2.1(a), (b) and (c) of this Agreement, exceed five percent of the
total number of shares of Parent Common Stock outstanding as of the date of
any such issuance.  The share numbers set forth in Section 2.2(a) above shall
be subject to adjustment for stock splits, combinations and dividends with
respect to the Parent Common Stock.  In case of any reorganization of Parent
during the Earn-out Period, or in case that, during such period, the Company
shall consolidate with or merge into another corporation or convey all or
substantially all of its assets to another corporation, then and in each such
case the Company Stockholders, upon payment of the Earn-Out Shares as provided
in this Section 2 at any time after the consummation of such reorganization,
consolidation, merger or conveyance, shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of
the Earn-Out Shares receivable prior to such consummation, the stock or other
securities or property to which the Company Stockholder would have been
entitled upon such consummation if the Company Stockholder had received the
Earn-Out Shares immediately prior thereto; in each such case, the terms of
this Agreement, shall be applicable to the shares of stock or other securities
or property receivable upon receipt of the Earn-Out Shares after such
consummation. The value of the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued
pursuant to the Earn-Out Shares shall be determined by dividing the relevant
dollar value by the average closing price of the Parent Common Stock on the
American Stock Exchange for the thirty (30) trading days ended two (2) trading
days prior to the date that Company satisfies the relevant Milestone and such
shares shall be deemed issued as of such date.

                                     4
<PAGE>



          (c)     The Earn-Out Shares shall be delivered to the Company
Stockholders within thirty days following achievement of the relevant
milestone.  Following the achievement of a milestone, the Company shall notify
Parent (the "Report").  Parent shall have fifteen days to review and approve
the Report.  If Parent does not notify the Company Stockholders in writing
within such fifteen day period that they dispute any matter set forth in the
Report, the Report shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Company
Stockholders and Parent.  If any disputes arise regarding the Report which the
Company Stockholders and Parent cannot resolve between themselves within
fifteen days, such questions shall be referred to the independent accountants
representing each of the parties, who shall have seven days thereafter to
attempt to resolve such questions, and any decisions mutually agreeable to
such accountants shall be binding upon the Company Stockholders and Parent.
If, after such seven days, the independent accountants of the Company
Stockholders and Parent are unable to arrive at a resolution of any issue
relating to the Report, such independent accountants will appoint a third
independent accounting firm satisfactory to each of them, which shall be
directed to resolve such questions within seven days thereafter, and whose
decisions shall be final and binding on all parties.  The cost of the
accounting firm shall be borne equally by the Company Stockholders and Parent.

          (d)     After the Closing Date and at all times during the Earn-Out
Period, the Company shall operate pursuant to an annual budget that has been
mutually agreed upon by both Andrew Borsanyi and the board of directors of
Parent prior to the commencement of such fiscal year.

          (e)     The Earn-Out Shares shall be divided among the holders of
Company Common Stock, Company Series A Preferred Stock and Company Series B
Preferred Stock converted pursuant to Section 2.1 above (the "Company Stock")
(other than any Dissenting Shares), such that, each share of Company Stock
shall be entitled to receive that number of shares of Parent Common Stock
equal to the product of (i) the Earn-Out-Shares, multiplied by (ii) one
divided by the sum of (x) the number of shares of Company Stock and (y) the
number of shares subject to Company Options.

     2.3     Exchange of Shares and Company Options; Delivery of Earn-Out
Shares.

          (a)     Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, at or prior to
the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint an exchange agent to effect the
exchange of shares of Company Common Stock (other than Dissenting Shares) for
Parent Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of this Article II (the
"Exchange Agent").  From time to time after the Effective Time, Parent shall
deposit, or cause to be deposited, certificates representing Parent Common
Stock for conversion of shares of Company Common Stock (other than Dissenting
Shares) in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.1 and 2.2 (such
certificates being herein referred to as the "Exchange Fund"); provided,
however, that all certificates representing Parent Common Stock to be issued
pursuant to Section 2.1(a) and (b) shall be deposited within ten (10) business
days following the Effective Time.  Commencing immediately after the Effective
Time and until the appointment of the Exchange Agent shall be terminated, each
holder of a certificate or certificates theretofore representing shares of
Company Common Stock (other than Dissenting Shares) may surrender the same to
the Exchange Agent and, after the appointment of the Exchange Agent shall be
terminated, any such holder may surrender any such certificate to Parent. Such
holder shall be entitled upon such surrender to receive in exchange therefor a
certificate or certificates representing the number of full shares of Parent
Common Stock into which the shares of Company Common Stock theretofore
represented by the certificate or certificates so surrendered shall have been

                                     5
<PAGE>


converted in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.1, in accordance with
Section 2.4, and all such shares of Parent Common Stock shall be deemed to
have been issued at the Effective Time. Until so surrendered and exchanged,
each outstanding certificate which, prior to the Effective Time, represented
issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock shall be deemed for all
corporate purposes of Parent to evidence ownership of the number of fullshares
of Parent Common Stock into which the shares of Company Common Stock
theretofore represented thereby shall have been converted at the Effective
Time.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3, risk of
loss and title to such certificates representing shares of Company Common
Stock shall pass only upon proper delivery of such certificates to the
Exchange Agent, and neither the Exchange Agent nor any party hereto shall be
liable to a holder of shares of Company Common Stock for any Parent Common
Stock or dividends or distributions thereon delivered to a public official
pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law or to a
transferee pursuant to Section 2.3. In the event that this Agreement shall
have been terminated pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof, the  Company and Parent
shall cause the Exchange Agent to use its commercially reasonable efforts to
effect the prompt return of stock certificates representing shares of Company
Common Stock to the holders thereof.  In the event Earn-Out Shares become
deliverable to the Company Stockholders pursuant to Section 2.3, such shares
shall be deposited with the Exchange Agent within five (5) business days
following final determination of the number of shares issuable for such year,
and the Exchange Agent shall distribute to each Company Stockholder the
Earn-Out Shares issuable to such Company Stockholder pursuant to Section
2.3(e).

          (b)     Following the Effective Time, Parent shall exchange, or
cause to be exchanged, agreements in respect of all Company Options exchanged
pursuant to Section 2.1(d) above for the existing agreements covering such
Company Options, which new agreements shall be covered by the terms of
Parent's 1999 Stock Option Plan.

     2.4     Stock Transfer Books.  At the Effective Time, the stock transfer
books of the Company with respect to shares of Company Common Stock shall be
closed, and there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of
Company Common Stock thereafter on the records of any such stock transfer
books. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Common
Stock that is not registered in the stock transfer records of the Company, at
the Effective Time, a certificate or certificates representing the number of
full shares of Parent Common Stock into which such shares of Company Common
Stock shall have been converted shall be issued to the transferee in
accordance with Section 2.3, if the certificate or certificates representing
such shares of Company Common Stock is or are surrendered as provided in
Section 2.3, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such
transfer and by evidence of payment of any applicable stock transfer tax.

     2.5     No Fractional Share Certificates.  Unless Parent otherwise
determines, no scrip or fractional share certificates for Parent Common Stock
shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of certificates evidencing
shares of Company Common Stock.  In lieu of fractional shares, each holder of
shares of Company Common Stock who would be entitled to receive a fractional
share of Parent Common Stock shall, upon surrender of the certificate or
certificates representing shares of Company Common Stock, be entitled to
receive one full share of Parent Common Stock for any fractional share
interest.


                                     6

     2.6     Dissenting Shares.  Notwithstanding any provision of Section 2.1
hereof to the contrary, shares of Company Common Stock which are held by
holders of such shares who have not voted in favor of the Merger, who are
entitled to dissent and who have delivered a written notice of intent to
demand payment for such shares in the manner provided in Section 262 of the
Delaware Corporation Law ("Dissenting Shares"), shall not be converted into or
exchanged for or represent the right to receive any shares of Parent Common
Stock, unless such holder fails to perfect or effectively withdraws or loses
such rights to payment. If, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to
perfect or effectively withdraws or loses such right to payment, then such
Dissenting Shares shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into and
exchanged pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof, as of the Effective Time, for the
right to receive shares of Parent Common Stock issued in the Merger to which
the holder of such shares of Company Common Stock is entitled, without any
interest thereon.  The Company shall give Parent prompt notice of any notices
and demands received by the Company for payment for shares of Company Common
Stock, and Parent shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and
proceedings with respect to such notices and demands. The Company shall not,
except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect
to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands. Prior to the Effective
Time, the Company shall establish an escrow account with a financial
institution and the Company shall fund such escrow account with cash or cash
equivalents in an amount sufficient to make all payments to holders of
Dissenting Shares. Such escrow account shall survive the Merger. All payments
to holders of Dissenting Shares shall be made out of such escrow account, and
no such payments shall be made or otherwise funded by Parent.

     2.7     Protection Against Dilution as to Conversion Rate.  In the event
that Parent subdivides or consolidates the Parent Common Stock or declares a
Common Stock dividend with respect to the Parent Common Stock or recapitalizes
or reclassifies its shares of Common Stock subsequent to the execution of this
Agreement and effective prior to the Closing Date, the conversion rate and
type of security (and the exercise price, with respect to Company Options)
shall be proportionately adjusted.

     2.8     Further Assurances.  Parent agrees that if, at any time after the
Effective Time, Company considers or is advised that any further deeds,
assignments or assurances are reasonably necessary or desirable to be obtained
from Parent or its officers or directors, to consummate the Merger or to carry
out the purposes of this Agreement at or after the Effective Time, then
Company, Parent and their respect officers and directors may execute and
deliver all such proper deeds, assignments and assurances and do all other
things necessary or desirable to consummate the Merger and to carry out the
purposes of this Agreement, in the name of Parent or otherwise.

Parent Subsidiary is free and clear of all security interests, liens, claims,
pledges, options, rights of first refusal, agreements, limitations on Parent's
or such other Parent Subsidiary's voting rights, charges and other
encumbrances of any nature whatsoever, except where the failure to own such
shares free and clear could not reasonably be expected to have, individually
or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect.

reasonable investigation, neither Parent nor any employee or agent of nor
attorney for Parent is aware of any fact that might result in or form the
basis for any such action, suit, arbitration, investigation, inquiry or other
proceeding.  Neither Parent nor any employee is in default with respect to any
order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any court
or of any governmental agency or instrumentality (whether federal, state,
local or foreign).

adverse change and no material adverse development in the business,
properties, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), assets,
liabilities or results of operations or, insofar as can reasonably be

                                   COVENANTS

     5.1     Investigative Rights.  From the date of this Agreement until the
Closing Date, each party shall provide to the other party, and such other
party's counsels, accountants, auditors, and other authorized representatives,
full access during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance written
notice to all of each party's properties, books, contracts, commitments, and
records for the purpose of examining the same.  Each party shall furnish the
other party with all information concerning each party's affairs as the other
party may reasonably request.  If the transaction contemplated hereby is not

accountants, auditors or other authorized representatives shall be returned to
the other party who provided same upon request.  The parties hereto, their
directors, employees, agents and representatives shall not disclose any of the
information described above unless such information is already disclosed to
the public, without the prior written consent of the party to which the
confidential information pertains.  Each party shall take such steps as are
necessary to prevent disclosure of such information to unauthorized third
parties.

     5.3     Plan of Reorganization.  This Agreement is intended to constitute
a "plan of reorganization" within the meaning of Section 1.368-2(g) of the
income tax regulations promulgated under the Code. From and after the date of
this Agreement, each party hereto shall use all reasonable efforts to cause
the Merger to qualify, and shall not, without the prior written consent of the
other parties hereto, knowingly take any actions or cause any actions to be
taken which could reasonably be expected to prevent the Merger from qualifying
as a reorganization under the provisions of Section 368 of the Code. In the
event that the Merger shall fail to qualify as a reorganization under the
provisions of Section 368 of the Code, then the parties hereto agree to
negotiate in good faith to restructure the Merger in order that it shall
qualify as tax-free transaction under the Code. Following the Effective Time,
and consistent with any such consent, neither the Surviving Corporation nor
Parent nor any of their respective affiliates knowingly and voluntarily shall
take any action or cause any action to be taken which could reasonably be
expected to cause the Merger to fail to qualify as a reorganization under
Section 368 of the Code.

     5.4     Registration of Common Stock by Parent.  As soon as reasonably
practicable, and in any event within 60 days following the Closing, Parent
shall prepare and file a registration statement on Form S-3 or, if Form S-3 is
not available, then on Form S-1, or such other available form, with respect to
150,000 of the shares of Parent Common Stock to be received pursuant to this
Agreement (the "Registrable Shares"), and shall use its best efforts to cause

                        TERMINATION, AMENDMENT AND WAIVER

     7.1     Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated and the Merger may
be abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time, notwithstanding any
requisite adoption and approval of this Agreement, as follows:

          (a)     by mutual written consent duly authorized by the boards of
directors of each of Parent and the Company;

          (b)     by either Parent or the Company, if the Effective Time shall
not have occurred on or before May 15, 2000; provided, however, that the right
to terminate this Agreement under this Section 7.1(b) shall not be available
to any party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement
shall have caused, or resulted in, the failure of the Effective Time to occur
on or before such date;

          (c)     by Parent, upon a breach of any representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement on the part of the Company set forth in this Agreement,
or if any representation or warranty of the Company shall have become untrue,
incomplete or incorrect, in either case such that the conditions set forth in
Section 6.3 would not be satisfied (a "Terminating Company Breach"); provided,
however, that if such Terminating Company Breach is curable by the Company
through the exercise of its reasonable efforts within 30 days and for so long
as the Company continues to exercise such reasonable efforts, Parent may not
terminate this Agreement under this Section 7.1(c); and provided further that
the preceding proviso shall not in any event be deemed to extend any date set
forth in paragraph (b) of this Section 7.1.

     7.2     Effect of Termination.  In the event of termination of this
Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void,
there shall be no liability under this Agreement on the part of any party
hereto or any of its affiliates or any of its or their officers or directors,
and all rights and obligations of each party hereto shall cease; provided,
however, that nothing herein shall relieve any party hereto from liability for
the willful or intentional breach of any of its representations and warranties
or the willful or intentional breach of any of its covenants or agreements set
forth in this Agreement.

     7.3     Amendment.  This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto
by action taken by or on behalf of their respective boards of directors at any
time prior to the Effective Time.  This Agreement may not be amended except by
an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto.

     7.4     Waiver.  At any time prior to the Effective Time, any party
hereto may (a) extend the time for or waive compliance with the performance of
any obligation or other act of any other party hereto or (b) waive any
inaccuracy in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any
document delivered pursuant hereto. Any such extension or waiver shall be
valid if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties
to be bound thereby.

     7.5     Expenses.  All Expenses incurred in connection with this
Agreement and the Merger shall be paid by the party incurring such Expenses,

                                ARTICLE VIII
                             GENERAL PROVISIONS

     8.1     Non-survival of Representations and Warranties.  The
representations and warranties in this Agreement shall terminate at the
Effective Time or upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section
7.1, as the case may be. Each party agrees that, except for the
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the Disclosure
Schedules, no party hereto has made any other representations and warranties,
and each party hereby disclaims any other representations and warranties made
by itself or any of its officers,  directors, employees, agents, financial and
legal advisors or other representatives, with respect to the execution and
delivery of this Agreement or the Merger contemplated herein, notwithstanding
the delivery or disclosure to any  other party or any party's representatives
of any documentation or other information with respect to any one or more of
the foregoing.

     8.2     Notices.  All notices, requests, claims, demands and other
communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given (and shall be
deemed to have been duly given upon receipt) by delivery in person, by
telecopy or facsimile, by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid,
return receipt requested) or by a nationally recognized courier service to the
respective parties at their addresses set forth on the signature pages to this
Agreement (or at such other address for a party as shall be specified in a
notice given in accordance with this Section 8.2).

     8.3     Severability.  If any term or other provision of this Agreement
is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or
public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall
nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal
substance of the Merger is not affected in any manner materially adverse to
any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is
invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall
negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original
intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in order that the Merger may
be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

     8.4     Assignment; Binding Effect; Benefit.  Neither this Agreement nor
any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any
of the parties hereto (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the
prior written consent of the other parties hereto.  Subject to the preceding
sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing
in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer on any person
other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and permitted
assigns any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

     8.5     Incorporation of Exhibits.  The Disclosure Schedules and all
Exhibits attached hereto and referred to herein are hereby incorporated herein
and made a part of this Agreement for all purposes as if fully set forth
herein.

     8.6     Choice of Law.  This Agreement shall be construed and governed by
the laws of the State of California without regard to conflicts of interest
principles.  The parties hereto consent to the jurisdiction of the federal and
state courts located in Los Angeles, California, for any action or suit
arising out of this Agreement, and waive any defense to such jurisdiction,
including, without limitation, any defense based on venue or inconvenient
forum.

     8.7     Headings.  The descriptive headings contained in this Agreement
are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way
the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

     8.8     Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed and delivered
(including by facsimile transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the
different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed
and delivered shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

     8.9     Entire Agreement.  This Agreement (including the Exhibits, the
Disclosure Schedules) constitute the entire agreement among the parties with
respect to the subject matter  hereof and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings among the parties with respect thereto. No addition to or
modification of any provision of this Agreement shall be binding upon any
party hereto unless made in writing and signed by all parties hereto.

be done or performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and
deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as
the other parties may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and
accomplish the purpose of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that no party shall be
obligated in any way to do anything that would conflict with, contradict or
otherwise contravene any term or condition set forth prior to this Section
8.10.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be
executed as of the date first written above by their respective officers
thereunto duly authorized.

     AGREED TO AND ACCEPTED as of the date first above written.
