                           INFORMATION ABOUT MAGNITUDE

                                   THE COMPANY

         Magnitude  Information Systems, Inc. (the "Company" or "Magnitude") was
incorporated  as a  Delaware  corporation  on  April  19,  1988  under  the name
Fortunistics  Inc. On March 4, 1993, the Company  changed its name to Whitestone
Industries,  Inc.On July 14,  1997,  the Company  changed its name to  Proformix
Systems,  Inc.,  and on  November  18,  1998,  the  Company  changed its name to
Magnitude Information Systems, Inc. .

         The Company's  primary  product is an integrated  suite of  proprietary
software modules marketed under the name  "ErgoManagerTM"  which are designed to
help individual computer users and businesses deal with potentially  preventable
repetitive   stress  injury  (RSI).   These  software  modules  can  be  applied
individually  or together in a  comprehensive  ergonomic and early  intervention
program  that seeks to modify a user's  behavior by  monitoring  computer  usage
patterns  over  time and  warning  the user when to break a  dangerous  trend in
repetitive  usage of an input device,  such as a keyboard or mouse.  The product
was developed to train people working on computers, monitor computer-use related
activities and evaluate a user's risk exposure and propensity  towards injury or
loss of effectiveness in connection with his/her day-to-day work. Moreover,  the
software  enables  a company  to not only  address  the  issue of  health  risks
involving  employees  and  to  minimize  resulting  potential  liabilities,  but
delivers a powerful tool to increase overall productivity.

                                   BACKGROUND

         On June 24, 1997,  the Company  entered into an  acquisition  agreement
whereby it acquired  substantially  all of the  outstanding  stock of Proformix,
Inc.,  a  Delaware   corporation  and  manufacturer  of  ergonomic   keyboarding
systems.Proformix, Inc. in November 1998 changed its name to Magnitude, Inc. and
is hereafter  referred to as Magnitude,  Inc. The business  combination took the
form of a reverse  acquisition.  The Company and Magnitude,  Inc.  remain as two
separate  legal entities  whereby  Magnitude,  Inc.  operates as a subsidiary of
Magnitude Information Systems, Inc.. The operations of the newly combined entity
are currently comprised solely of the operations of Magnitude, Inc.

         On February 2, 1998, the Company  entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Merger with Rolina Corporation, a privately held New Jersey software development
firm,  and on April 30,  1998,  into an Asset  Purchase  Agreement  with  Vanity
Software Publishing Co., a Canadian developer of specialized  software,  whereby
the  Company,  in return for  payments in form of cash and equity,  acquired the
rights to certain  software  products  and related  assets,  with such  software
products  subsequently  forming the basis for the further development during the
year  of  the  Company's   proprietary   ErgoManagerTM   software  product.  The
ErgoManagerTM system was introduced to the market in November 1998 and has since
been expanded and enhanced through newer releases.

<PAGE>



         On November  18,  1998,  the Company  and its wholly  owned  subsidiary
Magnitude,  Inc.  entered into an Asset Purchase  Agreement and several  related
agreements  with  1320236  Ontario  Inc.  ("OS"),  a  publicly  traded  Canadian
designer,  manufacturer and distributor of office furniture pursuant to which OS
acquired Magnitude, Inc.'s hardware product line comprised of ergonomic keyboard
platform  products and  accessories,  and all related  inventory and  production
tooling and warehousing  assets, and all intellectual  property rights including
the  Proformix  name,  against a cash  consideration  and an ongoing  contingent
stream of royalty payments on OS' sales of the Proformix hardware products. With
the sale of the hardware  product line,  the  Company's  business is now focused
exclusively  on the  further  development  and  marketing  of its  new  software
products.  Recently  proposed  Federal  OSHA  workplace  ergonomics  regulations
involving  mandatory  compliance   guidelines  for  industry  where  potentially
preventable  repetitive  stress  injuries  occur have opened a potentially  very
large market for the  Company's  products.  This  development  comes against the
backdrop of a Notice of Allowance by the US Patent and  Trademark  Office on the
Company's  patent  application  for certain  design  principles  underlying  its
ErgoManagerTM software.

                                  RISK FACTORS

         You should carefully consider the risks described below when evaluating
your  ownership  of the  Magnitude  common  stock.  The risks and  uncertainties
described  below are not the only ones  Magnitude  faces.  Additional  risks and
uncertainties  we are  presently  not  aware  of or that we  currently  consider
immaterial may also impair Magnitude's business operations.

         If any of the following risks actually  occurs,  Magnitude's  business,
financial  condition  or results of  operations  could be  materially  adversely
affected.  In such case,  the trading price of the Magnitude  common stock could
decline significantly.

Risks Associated with Forward Looking Statements.

         This  prospectus  contains  "forward-looking  statements"  which can be
identified  by the use of  words  such  as  "intend,"  "anticipate,"  "believe,"
"estimate,"  "project,"  or "expect" or similar  statements.  The  statements in
"Risk Factors" are cautionary  statements.  They identify important factors with
respect to forward-looking statements, that could cause actual results to differ
materially  from  those  forecasted  in  such  statements.  All  forward-looking
statements in this  prospectus are expressly  qualified in their entirety by the
cautionary statements in this paragraph.

Substantial Losses - Lack of Profitability.

         We have a history of losses and if we do not achieve  profitability  we
may not be  able to  continue  our  business  in the  future.  We have  incurred
substantial  operating  losses  since our  inception,  which has  resulted in an
accumulated  deficit of  approximately  $11,298,013  as of December  31, 1999 of
which  approximately $7 million are  attributable to its  discontinued  hardware
product line. For the fiscal years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, we incurred
losses  of  $2,391,948  and  $2,530,909,  respectively.  We  have  financed  our
operations  primarily  through  the sales of  equity  and debt  securities.  Our
expense levels are high and our revenues are difficult to predict. We anticipate
incurring  additional losses until we increase our client base and revenues.  We
may never achieve or sustain  significant  revenues or profitability.  If we are
unable to achieve  increased  revenues,  we will continue to have losses and may
not be able to continue our operations.

Additional Financing Requirements.

         We could be required to cut back or stop operations if we are unable to
raise or obtain needed funding.  Our ability to continue  operations will depend
on our positive  cash flow,  if any,  from future  operations  or our ability to
raise  additional funds through equity or debt financing.  In February,  2000 we
received a firm  commitment  for private  financing of $3.0 million of equity in
order to obtain the  working  capital  necessary  to  continue  to  finance  our
operations  and execute our business  plan.  Although we anticipate  that future
revenues and our current cash  balance  will be  sufficient  to fund our current
operations and capital  requirements for the current fiscal year, we cannot give
you any assurance  that we will not need  additional  funds before such time. We
have no current  arrangements for additional financing and we may not be able to
obtain  additional  financing on  commercially  reasonable  terms, if at all. We
could be  required to cut back or stop  operations  if we are unable to raise or
obtain funds when needed.

Limited Operating History.

         We have a limited  operating  history as a software product company and
have made only limited  sales of our products.  Our total  revenues for software
sales  and  licenses  for the  years  ended  December  31,  1999 and  1998  were
approximately $260,703 and $72,486, respectively.

Uncertainty of Market Acceptance.

         Our revenues depend on sales of our specialized  software  products and
we are  uncertain  whether  there  will be  broad  market  acceptance  of  these
products.  Our revenue growth for the  foreseeable  future is largely  dependent
upon increased sales of our ErgoManagerTM suite of software products.  Since the
introduction  of our  ErgoManagerTM  software  products  in  November,  1998 and
through  December  31,  1999  revenue  from  our  software   products  has  been
approximately  $270,000  (prior  to this  time,  we had  sales of  approximately
$63,000 based upon a predecessor  version of the  ErgoManagerTM  software}.  Our
future financial  performance  will depend upon the successful  introduction and
customer  acceptance  of our  ErgoManagerTM  software  products  as  well as the
development  of new and  enhanced  versions  of this  product  as well as  other
related  software  products  that may be developed  in the future.  Revenue from
products  such as  ErgoManagerTM  depend on a number of factors,  including  the
influence  of  market  competition,   technological  changes  in  the  ergonomic
workplace market, our ability to design, develop and introduce enhancements on a
timely basis and our ability to successfully establish and maintain distribution
channels.  If we fail to achieve broad market  acceptance  of our  ErgoManagerTM
products,  it would have a material  adverse  effect on our business,  operating
results and financial condition.

Lack of Distribution Network and Strategic Relationships.

         Inability to enter into strategic  relationships  with indirect channel
partners  could have a material  adverse  effect on us. As part of our sales and
marketing  efforts,  we are  seeking to  develop  strategic  relationships  with
indirect  channel  partners,   such  as  original  equipment  manufacturers  and
resellers. We have limited financial, personnel and other resources to undertake
extensive marketing activities ourselves.  Therefore, our software products will
depend on our ability to develop and maintain strategic marketing  relationships
with indirect  channel  partners and their ability to market and  distribute our
software products. If we are unable to enter into and maintain such arrangements
or if such arrangements do not result in the successful commercialization of our
software  products,  then  this  could  have a  material  adverse  effect on our
business, operating results and financial condition.

 Possible Loss of Entire Investment.

                  The  common  stock  offered  hereby  is  highly   speculative,
involves a high  degree of risk and should  not be  purchased  by any person who
cannot afford the loss of his entire investment.  A purchase of our common stock
in this offering  would be unsuitable  for a person who cannot afford to sustain
such a loss.

Dependence Upon Key Personnel.

                  We are substantially  dependent upon the continued services of
Steven D. Rudnik,  our President and Chief  Executive  Officer.  The loss of the
services of Mr. Rudnik  through  incapacity  or otherwise  would have a material
adverse effect upon our business and prospects.  To the extent that his services
become unavailable, we will be required to retain other qualified personnel, and
there can be no  assurance  that we will be able to recruit  and hire  qualified
persons upon acceptable terms. We do not maintain key person life and disability
insurance on the life of Mr. Rudnik.

         In addition, we believes that our future prospects will depend in large
part upon our ability to  attract,  train and retain  highly-skilled  technical,
managerial, sales and marketing personnel. However, competition for personnel in
the software industry is intense, and, at times, we have had difficulty locating
candidates with  appropriate  qualifications  within various desired  geographic
locations,  or with  certain  industry-specific  expertise.  If our  competitors
increase their use of non-compete  agreements,  the pool of available  technical
personnel may further narrow in certain  jurisdictions,  even if the non-compete
agreements are ultimately  unenforceable.  The failure to attract, train, retain
and manage  productive  sales and sales support  personnel would have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

         If we lose  the  services  of one or more  of our  key  employees,  our
business,  operating results, financial condition or business prospects could be
materially  adversely affected.  We have several programs in place to retain key
personnel,  including  granting of stock options that vest annually over four or
five years.  A number of key  employees  have vested stock options with exercise
prices lower than our current stock price.  These  potential gains provide these
employees the economic  freedom to explore  personal  objectives both within and
outside  of our  Company,  which  may  result  in the  loss of one or  more  key
employees during the coming years.

         It is widely  recognized that the software industry in which we compete
is at or beyond a condition of full  employment.  We may not be able to attract,
train and retain the personnel it requires to develop,  market, sell and support
new or existing software or to continue to grow. Also, to penetrate successfully
key  vertical  markets,  we  must  attract,  train  and  retain  personnel  with
industry-specific expertise.

Penny Stock Regulations

                The  Securities  Enforcement  Penny  Stock Act of 1990  requires
specific  disclosure to be made available in connection with trades in the stock
of companies defined as "penny stocks".  The Commission has adopted  regulations
that generally  define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market
price of less  than  $5.00  per  share,  subject  to  certain  exceptions.  Such
exceptions  include any equity security listed on NASDAQ and any equity security
issued by an issuer that has (I) net tangible assets of at least $2,000,000,  if
such issuer has been in continuous  operation for three years; (ii) net tangible
assets of at least $5,000,000,  if such issuer has been in continuous  operation
for  less  than  three  years;  or  (iii)  average  annual  revenue  of at least
$6,000,000,  if such issuer has been in continuous operation for less than three
years.  Unless an exception is available,  the regulations require the delivery,
prior to any  transaction  involving a penny  stock,  of a  disclosure  schedule
explaining the penny stock market and the risk  associated  therewith  aswell as
the written  consent of the  purchaser of such  security  prior to engaging in a
penny stock  transaction.  The regulations on penny stocks may limit the ability
of the  purchasers of our  securities to sell their  securities in the secondary
marketplace. Our common stock is currently considered a penny stock.

There is Intense Competition in the Industry

         The market for  ergonomic  application  software  is expected to become
intensely competitive.  Although we are not aware of any ergonomic software that
competes with our ErgoManagerTM  software products  currently,  competitors will
certainly enter this marketplace. Although we believe our success will be due in
part to our early entry into the  computer  workplace  market,  we expect  other
software product manufacturers to develop and sell similar products.

         Intense  competition  could lead to increased price  competition in the
market,  forcing us to reduce prices. As a result, our gross margins may decline
and we may lose our  first-to-market  advantage  which,  in turn,  could  have a
material  adverse  effect on our  business,  financial  condition and results of
operations.  In addition,  we may be unable to compete successfully with any new
competitors.


Magnitude Has Limited Protection of Intellectual Property and Proprietary Rights
and May Potentially Infringe Third Party Intellectual Property Rights

         We consider  certain  aspects of our software and  documentation  to be
proprietary, and rely on a combination of contract, patent, copyright, trademark
and  trade  secret  laws  and  other  measures  to  protect  this   information.
Outstanding  applications  may not result in issued patents and, even if issued,
the  patents  may not provide any  meaningful  competitive  advantage.  Existing
copyright laws afford only limited protection. We believe that the rapid pace of
technological  change in the computer software  industry has made patent,  trade
secret and copyright protection less significant than factors such as:

                    o     knowledge, ability and experience of our  employees;
                    o     frequent software product enhancements; and
                    o     timeliness and quality of support services.

                                       11

<PAGE>


         Patent, trade secret and copyright  protections may be inadequate,  and
our competitors may independently  develop ergonomic  software products that are
substantially equivalent or superior to our software products. We do not believe
that our software products,  our trademarks or other proprietary rights infringe
on the property rights of any third parties.  However,  third parties may assert
infringement claims against us and our products.  These assertions could require
us to enter into royalty arrangements or could result in costly litigation.

Magnitude May Experience Product Liability Claims

         Although our license agreements  contain  provisions  designed to limit
our exposure to potential product  liability  claims,  these provisions could be
invalidated by unfavorable judicial decisions or by federal, state or local laws
or ordinances.  Although we have not experienced any product liability claims to
date,  use of our software in mission  critical  applications  may create a risk
that a third  party may pursue a claim  against us.  Although  we carry  product
liability insurance, if a product liability claim against us was successful, the
resulting  damages or injunctive  relief could have a material adverse affect on
our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our Stock Price is Volatile and There is a Risk of Litigation

         The  trading  price of our common  stock has in the past and may in the
future be subject  to wide  fluctuations  in  response  to  factors  such as the
following:

          o       revenue or results of operations in any quarter failing to
                   meet the expectations, published or otherwise, of the
                  investment community;

          o       announcements of technological innovations by us or our
                  competitors;

          o       new products or the acquisition of significant customers by
                  us or our competitors;

          o       developments with respect to patents, copyrights or other
                  proprietary rights by us or our competitors;

          o       changes in recommendations or financial estimates by
                  securities analysts;

          o       conditions and trends in the software industry generally;

          o       adoption of new accounting standards affecting the software
                  industry; and

          o       general market conditions and other factors.

                                       12

<PAGE>

         Further,  the stock  market has  experienced  in recent  months and may
continue in the future to experience extreme price and volume  fluctuations that
particularly  affect the market prices of equity  securities of high  technology
companies that often are not related to or are disproportionate to the operating
performance  of such  companies.  These broad  market  fluctuations,  as well as
general  economic,  political and market  conditions  have,  and may continue to
have,  a material  adverse  effect on the  trading  price of our  common  stock.
Fluctuations  in the  price of our  common  stock  may  expose us to the risk of
securities  class action  lawsuits.  We cannot assure you that there will not be
lawsuits in the future or that future lawsuits will not have a material  adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

There Could Be Adverse Effects of Potential Securities Issuances

         Of the 19,482,086  common shares offered in this prospectus,  4,572,332
of these Common Shares have already been issued to the selling  securityholders.
If the  selling  securityholders  were to  exercise  their  rights  under  their
warrants,  convertible notes,  convertible  preferred stock and stock options to
purchase or convert into the remaining  14,909,754 common shares offered in this
prospectus  and then sell them,  the market  price of our common  stock could be
materially adversely affected. As of March 31, 2000, the substantial majority of
the warrants,  convertible preferred stock,  convertible notes and stock options
had exercise prices below the current market price of our common stock.

                                 USE OF PROCEEDS

         The selling securityholders will receive the net proceeds from the sale
of common stock. Magnitude will not receive any of the proceeds from any sale of
the shares by the selling  securityholders.  Magnitude will receive the proceeds
from the cash  exercise of any of the warrants and stock  options and intends to
use any such cash proceeds  received for general corporate  purposes,  which may
include repaying indebtedness,  making additions to its working capital, funding
future acquisitions or for further developing its products and hiring additional
personnel.

                             SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS

     All of the common  stock  offered is either  already  issued or is issuable
under  currently   exercisable   warrants  and  stock  options  or  pursuant  to
convertible  notes and  convertible  preferred  stock issued by Magnitude to the
selling  securityholders  in private  transactions  exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to the private  placement  exemption
of  Section  4(2).  Magnitude  may from time to time  supplement  or amend  this
prospectus,  as  required,  to provide  other  information  with  respect to the
selling securityholders.

The  following  table sets forth  certain  information  regarding  ownership  of
Magnitude's  common stock by the selling  securityholders  as of March 31, 2000,
including  their  names,  and the number of shares of common stock owned by them
and offered pursuant to this prospectus.  The selling  securityholders listed in
the table do not necessarily intend to sell any of their shares. Magnitude filed
the  registration   statement,   which  includes  this  prospectus  due  to  the
registration rights granted to the selling securityholders, not because they had
expressed an intent to immediately  sell their shares.  Holders of approximately
7,000,000  shares of the  19,482,086  shares in this offering have agreed not to
sell such shares for a period of one year.

(9) Shares  Underlying  Warrants Issued Pursuant to Acquisition The shares to be

1998,  the  Company  signed an  agreement  to acquire  substantially  all of the
assets, subject to the assumption of certain liabilities,  of Vanity in exchange
for 224,000 restricted shares of the common stock of the Company and warrants to
purchase  an  additional  224,000  shares  at a price of $5.00 per  share.  Such
warrants carried "piggy-back" registration rights. The major asset of Vanity was
a proprietary  ergonomic software package sold under the name ErgoBreak(TM) that
the Company  integrated into its own software  products suite marketed under the
ErgoManager(TM)  label.  The issuance of the  aforesaid  shares and warrants was
made  pursuant to  exemptions  provided by Section 4(2) of the  Securities  Act.
Vanity subsequently  offered to their shareholders which numbered  approximately
fifty, an exchange of their shares in Vanity into a ratably calculated number of
units  comprised  of one  common  share of the  Company  and a  warrant  for the
purchase  of one  common  share of the  Company  at the price of  US$5.00  each.
Substantially  all Vanity  shareholders  elected to accept this offer  following
which Vanity requested, and the Company agreed to, cancel the shares and warrant
issued to Vanity and replace them with like securities issued in the name of the
individual Vanity shareholders.  The form of warrant issued to the former Vanity
shareholders is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.23.

premium") equal to 15% of the liquidation  price.  Holders of the Series A Stock
can convert their shares into Magnitude  Common Stock at a conversion rate equal
to 150% of the  "market  price"  of  Magnitude's  Common  Stock  at the  time of
conversion.  "Market  price" is based upon the average bid and asked  prices for
Magnitude's  Common  Stock as quoted by the then  stock  exchange  during the 20
consecutive trading day period immediately preceding the conversion.

The Series B Stock.

         The Series B Stock has no voting rights and their holders do not have a
right to cast a vote on shareholder  matters.  The holders of Series B Stock are
entitled to receive  semi-annual  cumulative  dividends before any dividends are
declared  and paid upon the  Common  Stock,  but on par with the  holders of any
Series A Stock and Series C Stock, calculated against their liquidation price of
$9.00  per  share at the rate of 7%  annually.  In the  event of a  liquidation,
dissolution  or winding up of the affairs of Magnitude  and after payment of its
debts and liabilities,  the holders are entitled to be paid out of the remaining
assets a  liquidation  price of $9.00 per  share of Series B Stock,  on an equal
basis with the holders of any Series A Stock and Series C Stock.  Magnitude  has
the right to redeem or buy back part or all of the  Series B Stock  three  years
after their issuance by paying to the holders the  liquidation  price ($9.00 per
share),  any accumulated  but unpaid  dividends and a payment (a "call premium")
equal to 10% of the liquidation price. Holders of the Series B Stock can convert

Stock for one share of Series B Stock. The Series C Stock.

right to cast a vote on shareholder  matters.  The holders of Series C Stock are
entitled  to receive  monthly  cumulative  dividends  before any  dividends  are
declared  and paid upon the  Common  Stock,  but on par with the  holders of any
Series A Stock and Series B Stock, calculated against their liquidation price of
$9.00  per  share at the rate of 7%  annually.  In the  event of a  liquidation,
dissolution  or winding up of the affairs of Magnitude  and after payment of its
debts and liabilities,  the holders are entitled to be paid out of the remaining
assets a  liquidation  price of $9.00 per  share of Series C Stock,  on an equal
basis with the holders of any Series A Stock and Series B Stock.  Magnitude  has
the right to redeem or buy back part or all of the  Series C Stock  three  years

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

         The selling securityholders may sell some or all of their shares at any
time and in any of the following ways. They may sell their shares:

          o       To  underwriters  who buy the shares for their own account and
                  resell them in one or more transactions,  including negotiated
                  transactions,  at a fixed public  offering price or at varying
                  prices  determined  at the time of sale.  Any public  offering
                  price and any discount or concessions  allowed or reallowed or
                  paid to dealers may be changed from time to time;

          o       Through   brokers,   acting  as   principal   or   agent,   in
                  transactions,  which may involve  block  transactions,  on the
                  Electronic Bulletin Board, over-the-counter market or on other
                  exchanges  on which the  shares  are then  listed,  in special
                  offerings, exchange distributions pursuant to the rules of the
                  applicable  exchanges or in the  over-the-counter  market,  or
                  otherwise, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at
                  prices related to such prevailing market prices, at negotiated
                  prices or at fixed prices;

          o       Directly or through brokers or agents in private sales a
                  negotiated prices; or

          o       By any other legally available means.

         Selling  securityholders  may pay part of the proceeds from the sale of
shares in commissions and other compensation to underwriters,  dealers,  brokers
or agents who  participate  in the sales.  Holders  of  approximately  7,000,000
shares have agreed not to sell such shares for a period of one year.

         Certain states may require shares to be sold only through registered or
licensed brokers or dealers. In addition,  certain states may require the shares
to be registered or qualified for sale unless an exemption from  registration or
qualification is available and complied with.

         Magnitude   has  agreed  to   contribute   to   payments   the  selling
securityholders may be required to make under the Securities Act.

                                  LEGAL MATTERS

                   INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN THE PROSPECTUS

ITEM 14. OTHER EXPENSES OF ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION

         Magnitude  will pay all  expenses  incident to the offering and sale to
the  public of the  shares  being  registered  other  than any  commissions  and
discounts  of  underwriters,  dealers or agents  and any  transfer  taxes.  Such
expenses  are set forth in the  following  table.  All of the amounts  shown are
estimates  except the Securities and Exchange  Commission  ("SEC")  registration
fee.

SEC registration fee                          11,276.00
Legal fees and expenses                       10,000.00
Accounting fees and expenses                   2,500.00
Miscellaneous expenses                         1,000.00
         Total                                24,776.00

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

         As permitted by the Delaware  General  Corporation  Law,  Magnitude has
included in its  Certificate  of  Incorporation  a provision  to  eliminate  the
personal  liability of it's directors for monetary damages for breach or alleged
breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, subject to certain exceptions. In
addition,  the Bylaws of  Magnitude  require  the Company to (i)  indemnify  the
officers  and   directors   under   certain   circumstances,   including   those
circumstances in which  indemnification  would otherwise be  discretionary,  and
(ii) advance  expenses to the officers and  directors as incurred in  connection
with proceedings  against them for which they may be indemnified.  Magnitude has
entered  into  indemnification   agreements  with  the  officers  and  directors
containing  provisions  that are in some  respects  broader  than  the  specific
indemnification  provisions  contained in the Delaware General  Corporation Law.
The indemnification agreements may require the companies, among other things, to
indemnify such officers and directors against certain liabilities that may arise
by reason of their  status or service  as  directors  or  officers  (other  than
liabilities  arising from willful  misconduct of a culpable nature),  to advance
expenses  incurred as a result of any  proceeding  against them as to which they
may  be  indemnified,  and to  obtain  directors'  and  officers'  insurance  if
available on reasonable terms.  Magnitude believes that these charter provisions
and  indemnification  agreements  are necessary to attract and retain  qualified
persons as directors and officers.

         Magnitude  understands  that the staff of the  Securities  and Exchange
Commission is of the opinion that statutory,  charter and contractual provisions
as are  described  above  have no  effect on claims  arising  under the  federal
securities laws.

registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated  maximum
offering  range may be  reflected in the form of  prospectus  filed with the SEC
pursuant  to Rule 424(b) if, in the  aggregate,  the changes in volume and price
represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate  offering price set
forth  in  the  "Calculation  of  Registration   Fee"  table  in  the  effective
Registration  Statement;  (iii) to include any material information with respect
to the  plan  of  distribution  not  previously  disclosed  in the  Registration
Statement  or any  material  change  to  such  information  in the  Registration
Statement;  (2) That,  for the purpose of  determining  any liability  under the
Securities Act, each such  post-effective  amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration  statement  relating to the  securities  offered  therein,  and the
offering of such  securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide  offering  thereof;   (3)  To  remove  from  registration  by  means  of  a
post-effective  amendment any of the  securities  being  registered  that remain
unsold at the termination of this offering.

         B. UNDERTAKING REGARDING FILINGS INCORPORATING SUBSEQUENT EXCHANGE ACT
            DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE

         The  undersigned  Registrant  hereby  undertakes  that, for purposes of
determining  any  liability  under  the  Securities  Act,  each  filing  of  the
Registrant's  annual  report  pursuant to Section  13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act (and, where  applicable,  each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual  report   pursuant  to  Section  15(d)  of  the  Exchange  Act)  that  is
incorporated by reference in the Registration  Statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration  statement relating to the securities offered therein,  and the
offering of such  securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona

          C. UNDERTAKING IN RESPECT OF INDEMNIFICATION

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be  permitted to  directors,  officers  and  controlling  persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing  provisions,  or otherwise,  the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such  indemnification is against
public  policy  as  expressed  in  the   Securities   Act  and  is,   therefore,
unenforceable.  In the  event  that a claim  for  indemnification  against  such
liabilities  (other than the payment by the  Registrant of expenses  incurred or
paid by a  director,  officer or  controlling  person of the  Registrant  in the
successful  defense of any  action,  suit or  proceeding)  is  asserted  by such
director,  officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been  settled by  controlling  precedent,  submit to a court of  appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such  indemnification  by it is against public
policy as  expressed  in the  Securities  Act and will be  governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

         D. UNDERTAKING PURSUANT TO RULE 430A

         The undersigned  Registrant hereby undertakes that: (1) For purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from
the form of the  prospectus  filed  as part of this  Registration  Statement  in
reliance  upon  Rule 430A and  contained  in a form of  prospectus  filed by the
Registrant  pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act
shall be deemed to be part of this Registration  Statement as of the time it was
declared effective.  (2) For the purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus
shall be deemed to be a new  registration  statement  relating to the securities
offered  therein,  and the  offering  of such  securities  at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

                                   $1.00 per share.  Should the closing  price

                                   for a period of ten  consecutive  trading

                                   option to require  the  holder,  so long as
                                   the  shares are  registered  with the
                                   Securities  and Exchange  Commission,  to
                                   either  exercise the Warrants in full within

                                   of the holder to exercise the Warrants,  the
                                   Warrant shall  automatically  expire.  To be
                                   effective,  the Company's  written  notice

Registration Rights:               The  Company  will use its best  efforts to
                                   include  the Common  Stock
                                   underlying  the Notes (not to exceed 100,000
                                   shares) and the Common  Stock  underlying
                                   the  Warrants  in a  registration  statement
                                   filed  with the  Securities  and  Exchange
                                   Commission on or before  December 31, 1999.
                                   Should the  securities not be registered by

                                   investor  an  additional  10,000  shares of
                                   Common Stock for every Unit subscribed to.

                                   of the Act.

                                   DISAPPROVED   BY   ANY   FEDERAL   OR   STATE

                                   fund  its  operations  and  business
                                   plans.

Commissions:                       The Company  will not pay any  commissions
                                   on sales of Units made through the Company's
                                   officers and  directors.  The Company
                                   reserves the right to compensate finders who
                                   assist in the sale of Units.

Substantial Risk:                  An  investment in the Company is subject to
                                   substantial  risks and in extremely
                                   speculative.  An investment  should only be
                                   considered by an investor who can afford to
                                   lose their entire investment.

Risk Factors:                      The  undersigned   acknowledges  that  the
                                   Company  (i)  has suffered  substantial
                                   losses in its prior operations,  (ii)
                                   currently has a significant working  capital
                                   deficit,  and (iii) requires  significant
                                   funding in order to operate its business and
                                   satisfy  existing  obligations. In  addition,
                                   the  Company and its operations are  subject
                                   to a  myriad  of other  risks  which  effect
                                   undercapitalized entities. As a result of
                                   such  risks the loss of the  undersigned's
                                   entire  investment is possible.

                               ACCREDITED INVESTOR
                             SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

                Subscription Agreement and Questionnaire for the
            Purchase of Units of Magnitude Information Systems, Inc.

         Pursuant  to the  terms  of the  offer  made by  Magnitude  Information
Systems,  Inc. ("Company") described in the Term Sheet dated May 20, 1999 ("Term
Sheet"),  the  undersigned  hereby  subscribes  for  _____Units of the Company's
common  stock  ("Units")  at a purchase  price of $50,000  per Unit.  The entire
purchase  price is due and  payable  upon  the  execution  of this  Subscription
Agreement,  and  shall  be paid by  check,  subject  to  collection,  or by wire
transfer, made payable to the order of "Magnitude Information Systems, Inc." The
Company shall have the right to reject this subscription in whole or in part.

         1 The  undersigned,  in order to induce  the  Company  to  accept  this
Subscription  Agreement  represents,  warrants  and  covenants to the Company as
follows:

                  (a) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that (i) the  Units  being
purchased hereunder have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933,as
amended  ("Securities Act"), or the securities laws of any State; (ii) absent an
exemption  from  registration  contained in those laws, the issuance and sale of
the Units would require registration;  and (iii) the Company's reliance upon any
such  exemption  is  invariably  based upon the  undersigned's  representations,
warranties,  and  agreements  contained  in  this  Subscription  Agreement  (the
Subscription  Agreement and the included Investor Questionnaire are collectively
referred to herein as the "Subscription Documents").

                  (b) The undersigned agrees that this Subscription Agreement is
and shall be irrevocable unless it has not been accepted by the Company.

                  (c) The  undersigned  has carefully  read the Term Sheet,  the
Subscription   Agreement   and  all  exhibits   included  with  the  Term  Sheet
(collectively, "Disclosure Materials") all of which the undersigned acknowledges
have been delivered to the undersigned.  The undersigned  acknowledges  that the
undersigned  has been given the  opportunity  to ask  questions  of, and receive
answers  from,  the  Company   concerning  the  terms  and  conditions  of  this
Subscription   Agreement  and  the  Disclosure  Materials  and  to  obtain  such
additional  written  information,  to the  extent  the  Company  possesses  such
information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense,  necessary
to verify the accuracy of same, as the Undersigned  desires in order to evaluate
the investment.  The undersigned  further  acknowledges that the undersigned has
received no representations or warranties from the Company,  or their respective
employees or agents in making this  investment  decision other than as set forth
in the Disclosure Materials.



<PAGE>






                  (d) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that the  undersigned  has
investigated  the Company's  business,  financial  conditions,  current state of
affairs,  planned  business  and  other  matters  necessary  in  order  for  the
undersigned to make an informed  investment  decision  regarding the purchase of
the Units.

                  (e) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that  the  undersigned  is
purchasing  the  Units  without  being   furnished  any  prospectus  or  written
description of the Company, its business and/or its future plans, other than the
Disclosure Material,  and has relied solely upon the Disclosure Material and the
undersigned's own investigation into the Company and its proposed operations.

                  (f) The undersigned is aware that the purchase of the Units is
a  speculative  investment  involving a high degree of risk and that there is no
guarantee that the undersigned will realize any gain from this  investment,  and
that the entire investment could be lost.

                  (g) The  undersigned  understands  that no  federal  or  state
agency has made any  finding or  determination  regarding  the  fairness of this
Offering, or any recommendation or endorsement of this Offering.

                  (h)  The   undersigned   is  purchasing   the  Units  for  the
undersigned's  own account,  with the  intention of holding the Security with no
present  intention  of  dividing  or  allowing  others  to  participate  in this
investment or of reselling or otherwise  participating,  directly or indirectly,
in a distribution  of the Security,  and shall not make any sale,  transfer,  or
pledge thereof without  registration under the Securities Act and any applicable
securities  laws of any  state or  unless  an  exemption  from  registration  is
available under those laws.

                  (i) The  undersigned  will not sell  short in any  manner  the
shares of Common Stock  underlying  the Warrants  and/or Notes  contained in the
Units.

                  (j) The  undersigned is financially  able to bear the economic
risk of this investment, including the ability to hold the Units indefinitely or
to afford a complete loss of the undersigned's investment in the Units.



<PAGE>



                  (k) The undersigned  represents that the undersigned's overall
commitment   to   investments   which  are  not   readily   marketable   is  not
disproportionate  to its net  worth,  and the  investment  in the Units will not
cause such overall commitment to become excessive.  The undersigned  understands
that the statutory basis on which the Units are being sold to the undersigned to
others would not be available if the  undersigned's  present  intention  were to
hold the Units for a fixed period or until the  occurrence  of a certain  event.
The  undersigned  realizes  that in the  view  of the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission,a  purchase  now with a  present  intent  to  resell  by  reason of a
foreseeable  specific contingency or any anticipated change in the market value,
or in the  condition  of the  Company,  or that of the  industry  in  which  the
business  of the  Company  is  engaged  or in  connection  with  a  contemplated
liquidation,  or  settlement  of any loan  obtained by the  undersigned  for the
acquisition of the Units, and for which such Units may be pledged as security or
as donations to religious or charitable institutions for the purpose of securing
a deduction on an income tax return,  would, in fact,  represent a purchase with
an intent  inconsistent with the undersigned's  representations  to the Company,
and the  Securities and Exchange  Commission  would then regard such sale as one
for which no exemption from registration is available.  The undersigned will not
pledge, transfer or assign this Subscription Agreement.

                  (l) The  undersigned  represents  that the funds  provided for
this investment are either separate property of the Undersigned,  other property
over which the undersigned  has the right of control,  or are otherwise funds as
to which the undersigned has the sole right of management.

                  (m) The address shown under the undersigned's signature at the
end of this  Subscription  Agreement  is the  undersigned's  principal  business
address if a corporation or other entity.

                  (n) The  undersigned  has such  knowledge  and  experience  in
financial  and business  matters as to be capable of  evaluating  the merits and
risks of an investment in the Units.

                  (o) The undersigned acknowledges that the certificates for the
securities comprising the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants and the
Notes contained in the Units which the  undersigned  will receive will contain a
legend substantially as follows:

        THE SECURITIES  WHICH ARE REPRESENTED BY THIS  CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
        REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.  THE SECURITIES

        UNLESS  AND  UNTIL  REGISTERED  UNDER  THE  SECURITIES  ACT OF 1933,  AS
        AMENDED,  OR AN OPINION  OF COUNSEL  FOR THE  COMPANY IS  RECEIVED  THAT
        REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT.

                  (p)  This  Subscription  Agreement  and  all  representations,
warranties  and  statements  made herein are true,  complete  and correct in all
material respects.

                  (q) The undersigned  acknowledges that the Company,  except as
set forth in the Term Sheet,  is under no obligation to register the Units under
the Securities Act or any state  securities  laws, or to take any action to make
any exemption from any such registration provisions available.
                  (r)      This  Subscription  Agreement  is a  legally  binding
                           obligation of the  undersigned in accordance with its

circumstances  and any such attempted  assignment or transfer shall  immediately
cause this Warrant to expire and be rendered  null and void.  In addition to the
requirements set forth above,  disposition of any of the underlying Shares shall

Act is required with respect to such disposition; or

registration  statement  under the 1933 Act has been filed and made effective by

hereby.

offer to sell or transfer of the Warrants represented by this certificate can or
will be made in as much as the Warrant is not assignable or  transferable  under
any circumstances and any attempt to assign or transfer this Warrant shall cause
the same to  immediately  expire  and be null and  void in  accordance  with its
terms. No sale, offer to sell or transfer of the underlying shares shall be made
unless a registration  statement under the 1933 Act, with respect to such shares
is then in effect or an exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933
Act is  then  in  fact  applicable  to such  shares.  The  availability  of such
exemption shall be established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company and
its counsel.

THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN  REGISTERED  UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
("THE  SECURITIES  ACT"),  OR ANY STATE  SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED,
SOLD,  PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE  TRANSFERRED  UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER ALL APPLICABLE
SECURITIES  LAWS OR UNLESS  EXEMPTION FROM SUCH  REGISTRATION  REQUIREMENTS  ARE
AVAILABLE,  WHICH EXEMPTIONS SHALL BE ESTABLISHED TO THE REASONABLE SATISFACTION
OF THE COMPANY, BY OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHERWISE.


         FOR VALUE  RECEIVED,  the  undersigned  promises to pay to the order of
_______    ________,     (herein    called    "Note    Holder")    located    at
___________________________________, or such other place as may be designated in
writing  by  Note   Holder,   the   principal   sum  of   ______________________
($_____________)  DOLLARS,  (subject  to  receipt  by the  undersigned  of  said
principal sum as advanced by Note Holder), together with interest as hereinafter
provided.  Subject to the conversion and/or prepayment as hereinafter contained,
the entire  principal  amount due hereunder along with accrued  interest thereon
shall be paid to the Note  Holder in one  payment on the date which is  Fourteen
(14) months from the date hereof.

         The undersigned  borrower shall pay the Note Holder interest commencing
with the date  hereof,  computed  on the  basis of a 360 day year on the  unpaid
principal  balance at the rate of Seven (7%)  percent per annum from the date of
actual advance to the undersigned.

         Note Holder is hereby granted an option to convert, in increments of no
less than  $25,000.00,  up to the entire  principal  balance due hereunder  into
shares of common  stock of the  undersigned  at a  conversion  price of $.50 per
share.  Said option shall be  exercisable  by Note Holder upon at least five (5)
business days prior written notice, as hereinafter  provided, to the undersigned
at any time and from time to time  during the term hereof but no later than five
(5) business days prior to the aforementioned  principal due date hereunder.  In
the event  Note  Holder  elects  to so  convert  any  portion  of the  principal
otherwise due hereunder,  Note Holder shall provide the undersigned with written
notice of such conversion  option exercise as aforesaid  whereupon this Note and
all sums due Note  Holder  hereunder  shall be deemed to be  partially  or fully
pre-paid and satisfied as the case may be dependent  upon the principal  sums so
converted,  and the undersigned shall, as soon as may be practicable thereafter,
deliver or cause to be  delivered  to Note Holder all shares of common stock due
to Note Holder as aforesaid.  All notices shall be in writing, sent via next day
overnight mail or delivery  service with receipt  therefor,  and shall be deemed
given as of the date of such mailing.  All shares  received  hereunder  shall be
subject to all applicable  securities laws.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  the
undersigned  shall,  by  _______________,  cause an amount of the  undersigned's
shares  calculated  at the  above  conversion  rate to be  registered  upon such
Registration  Statement  as may be legally  available so as to cause said shares
subject  to  the  foregoing  conversion  option  to  be  without  the  Rule  144
Restriction. Should Note Holder elect to convert as set forth above prior to the
filing of such Registration Statement, then the shares Note Holder receives upon
such  conversion  shall  thereafter  be included in the  foregoing  Registration
Statement.  In no event shall the number of shares to be registered and issuable
hereunder  as set forth above  exceed  _________.  In the event the  undersigned
shall not cause  said  Registration  Statement  to become  effective  within the
foregoing  period,  Note  Holder  shall be  entitled  to receive  an  additional
______________  shares of the  undersigned  common  stock which  shares shall be
subject to all applicable securities laws.

         Upon the  failure  to pay the sums of money due under  this  Promissory
Note,  which default  shall remain  uncured for a period of thirty (30) days, or
the appointment of a receiver of the property,  rights,  credits,  assets or any
part thereof, of the undersigned,  or the filing of a petition by or against the
undersigned  for relief under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or an assignment
of all the  undersigned's  assets for the benefit of creditors,  the Note Holder
may at its option:

         (1) Declare all sums owing Note Holder from the  undersigned  hereunder
to be forthwith due and payable.

         (2) Collect interest on the principal  balance owing hereon at the rate
provided herein from the date of such default,  and if this Note is referred for
collection,   collect  all  reasonable  expenses  incurred  by  Note  Holder  in
connection  with the  collection  of this  Note,  including  but not  limited to
reasonable attorney's fees.

         Note Holder  shall not, by any act,  delay,  omission or  otherwise  be
deemed to have waived any of his rights or remedies  hereunder  and no waiver by
the Note Holder of his rights or remedies  hereunder shall be valid against Note
Holder  unless in writing,  signed by Note  Holder,  and then only to the extent
therein  set  forth.  The  waiver  by the Note  Holder  of any  right or  remedy
hereunder  upon any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or
remedy which he would otherwise have had on any future occasion.

         The undersigned  shall have the right to make  prepayments  upon thirty
days' notice,  in whole or in part, of this Note without  premium or penalty and
from time to time. All prepayments  shall be applied against the payments due in
the order of maturity.

         The  undersigned  hereby waives  presentment  for payment,  protest and
notice for non-payment of this Note.

         This Note shall be governed by and  construed  in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State of New  Jersey  with  venue  situate  therein  and may not be
assigned  in  whole  or in  part  without  the  prior  written  consent  of  the
undersigned in each instance.

         1 The  undersigned,  in order to induce  the  Company  to  accept  this
Subscription  Agreement  represents,  warrants  and  covenants to the Company as
follows:

                  (a)  The  undersigned  acknowledges  that  (i) the  Notes  and
Warrants being purchased hereunder have not been registered under the Securities
Act of 1933,as amended  ("Securities Act"), or the securities laws of any State;
(ii) absent an exemption from registration contained in those laws, the issuance
and sale of the Notes and Warrants  would  require  registration;  and (iii) the
Company's  reliance  upon  any  such  exemption  is  invariably  based  upon the
undersigned's  representations,  warranties,  and  agreements  contained in this
Subscription  Agreement (the  Subscription  Agreement and the included  Investor
Questionnaire   are  collectively   referred  to  herein  as  the  "Subscription
Documents").

                  (b) The undersigned agrees that this Subscription Agreement is
and shall be irrevocable unless it has not been accepted by the Company.

                  (c) The  undersigned  has carefully  read the  Company's  Form
10-KSB  for the fiscal  year ended  December  31,  1998 and Form  10-QSB for the
quarter ended _____________, this Subscription Agreement as well as the Note and
Warrant  attached hereto as Exhibits A and B,  respectively  (collectively,  the
"Disclosure  Materials")  all of which the  undersigned  acknowledges  have been
delivered to the undersigned.  The undersigned acknowledges that the undersigned
has been given the  opportunity  to ask questions of, and receive  answers from,
the Company  concerning the terms and conditions of this Subscription  Agreement
and the Disclosure  Materials and to obtain such additional written information,
to the extent the Company  possesses such  information or can acquire it without
unreasonable effort or expense, necessary to verify the accuracy of same, as the
Undersigned desires in order to evaluate the investment. The undersigned further
acknowledges that the undersigned has received no  representations or warranties
from the  Company,  or their  respective  employees  or agents  in  making  this
investment decision other than as set forth in the Disclosure Materials.



<PAGE>



                  (d) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that the  undersigned  has
investigated  the Company's  business,  financial  conditions,  current state of
affairs,  planned  business  and  other  matters  necessary  in  order  for  the
undersigned to make an informed  investment  decision  regarding the purchase of
the Notes and Warrants.

                  (e) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that  the  undersigned  is
purchasing  the Notes and Warrants  without being  furnished  any  prospectus or
written description of the Company,  its business and/or its future plans, other
than the Disclosure Material, and has relied solely upon the Disclosure Material
and the  undersigned's  own  investigation  into the  Company  and its  proposed
operations.

                  (f) The  undersigned  is aware that the  purchase of the Notes
and  Warrants is a  speculative  investment  involving a high degree of risk and
that there is no guarantee that the undersigned  will realize any gain from this
investment, and that the entire investment could be lost.

                  (g) The  undersigned  understands  that no  federal  or  state
agency has made any  finding or  determination  regarding  the  fairness of this
Offering, or any recommendation or endorsement of this Offering.

                  (h) The  undersigned  is purchasing the Notes and Warrants for
the undersigned's  own account,  with the intention of holding the Security with
no present  intention  of  dividing or allowing  others to  participate  in this
investment or of reselling or otherwise  participating,  directly or indirectly,
in a distribution  of the Security,  and shall not make any sale,  transfer,  or
pledge thereof without  registration under the Securities Act and any applicable
securities  laws of any  state or  unless  an  exemption  from  registration  is
available under those laws.

                  (i) The  undersigned  will not sell  short in any  manner  the
shares of Common Stock underlying the Notes and Warrants.

                  (j) The  undersigned is financially  able to bear the economic
risk of this  investment,  including  the ability to hold the Notes and Warrants
indefinitely or to afford a complete loss of the undersigned's investment in the
Notes and Warrants.



<PAGE>



                  (k) The undersigned  represents that the undersigned's overall
commitment   to   investments   which  are  not   readily   marketable   is  not
disproportionate  to its net worth, and the investment in the Notes and Warrants
will not cause such overall  commitment  to become  excessive.  The  undersigned
understands  that the  statutory  basis on which the Units are being sold to the
undersigned  to  others  would not be  available  if the  undersigned's  present
intention  were to hold the Notes and  Warrants  for a fixed period or until the
occurrence of a certain event. The undersigned  realizes that in the view of the
Securities  and  Exchange  Commission,a  purchase  now with a present  intent to
resell by reason of a foreseeable specific contingency or any anticipated change
in the market value, or in the condition of the Company, or that of the industry
in which  the  business  of the  Company  is  engaged  or in  connection  with a
contemplated liquidation,  or settlement of any loan obtained by the undersigned
for the  acquisition  of the Notes and  Warrants,  and for which  such Notes and
Warrants may be pledged as security or as  donations to religious or  charitable
institutions  for the purpose of  securing a deduction  on an income tax return,
would,  in fact,  represent  a  purchase  with an intent  inconsistent  with the
undersigned's  representations  to the Company,  and the Securities and Exchange
Commission  would  then  regard  such  sale as one for which no  exemption  from
registration is available.  The undersigned will not pledge,  transfer or assign
this Subscription Agreement.

                  (l) The  undersigned  represents  that the funds  provided for
this investment are either separate property of the Undersigned,  other property
over which the undersigned  has the right of control,  or are otherwise funds as
to which the undersigned has the sole right of management.

                  (m) The address shown under the undersigned's signature at the
end of this  Subscription  Agreement  is the  undersigned's  principal  business
address if a corporation or other entity.

                  (n) The  undersigned  has such  knowledge  and  experience  in
financial  and business  matters as to be capable of  evaluating  the merits and
risks of an investment in the Notes and Warrants.

                  (o) The undersigned acknowledges that the certificates for the
securities  comprising  the  shares of  Common  Stock  underlying  the Notes and
Warrants which the undersigned will receive will contain a legend  substantially
as follows:

            TRANSFERRED,   MADE  SUBJECT  TO  A  SECURITY   INTEREST,   PLEDGED,
            HYPOTHECATED  OR OTHERWISE  DISPOSED OF UNLESS AND UNTIL  REGISTERED
            UNDER THE  SECURITIES  ACT OF 1933,  AS  AMENDED,  OR AN  OPINION OF
            COUNSEL  FOR  THE  COMPANY  IS  RECEIVED  THAT  REGISTRATION  IS NOT
            REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT.

                  (p)  This  Subscription  Agreement  and  all  representations,
warranties  and  statements  made herein are true,  complete  and correct in all
material respects.

                  (q) The undersigned  acknowledges that the Company,  except as
set forth in the Notes and  Warrants,  is under no  obligation  to register  the
Notes and Warrants under the Securities Act or any state  securities laws, or to
take any  action to make any  exemption  from any such  registration  provisions

THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN  REGISTERED  UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
("THE  SECURITIES  ACT"),  OR ANY STATE  SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED,
SOLD,  PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE  TRANSFERRED  UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER ALL APPLICABLE
SECURITIES  LAWS OR UNLESS  EXEMPTION FROM SUCH  REGISTRATION  REQUIREMENTS  ARE
AVAILABLE,  WHICH EXEMPTIONS SHALL BE ESTABLISHED TO THE REASONABLE SATISFACTION
OF THE COMPANY, BY OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHERWISE.


         FOR VALUE RECEIVED,  the undersigned promises to pay to the order of B.
MICHAEL  PISANI,  (herein  called "Note  Holder")  located at 44 Lake Hill Road,
Short  Hills,  New Jersey  07078,  or such other place as may be  designated  in
writing by Note Holder, the principal sum of ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND  ($100,000.00)
DOLLARS,  (subject  to  receipt  by the  undersigned  of said  principal  sum as
advanced by Note Holder as follows:  $50,000 (less $7,500 representing an amount
heretofore  outstanding  and due Note  Holder  satisfied  hereby)  upon the date
hereof,  $25,000 within 7 days hereafter and an additional $25,000 within 7 days
thereafter),  together with  interest as  hereinafter  provided.  Subject to the
conversion  and/or  prepayment as hereinafter  contained,  the entire  principal
amount due hereunder  along with accrued  interest  thereon shall be paid to the
Note Holder in one  payment on the date which is  Fourteen  (14) months from the
date hereof.

         The undersigned  borrower shall pay the Note Holder interest commencing
with the date  hereof,  computed  on the  basis of a 360 day year on the  unpaid
principal  balance at the rate of Seven (7%)  percent per annum from the date of
actual advance to the undersigned.

         Note Holder is hereby granted an option to convert, in increments of no
less than  $25,000.00,  up to the entire  principal  balance due hereunder  into
shares of common  stock of the  undersigned  at a  conversion  price of $.50 per
share.  Said option shall be  exercisable  by Note Holder upon at least five (5)
business days prior written notice, as hereinafter  provided, to the undersigned
at any time and from time to time  during the term hereof but no later than five
(5) business days prior to the aforementioned  principal due date hereunder.  In
the event  Note  Holder  elects  to so  convert  any  portion  of the  principal
otherwise due hereunder,  Note Holder shall provide the undersigned with written
notice of such conversion  option exercise as aforesaid  whereupon this Note and
all sums due Note  Holder  hereunder  shall be deemed to be  partially  or fully
pre-paid and satisfied as the case may be dependent  upon the principal  sums so
converted,  and the undersigned shall, as soon as may be practicable thereafter,
deliver or cause to be  delivered  to Note Holder all shares of common stock due
to Note Holder as aforesaid.  All notices shall be in writing, sent via next day
overnight mail or delivery  service with receipt  therefor,  and shall be deemed
given as of the date of such mailing.  All shares  received  hereunder  shall be
subject to all applicable  securities laws.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  the
undersigned  shall, by December 31, 1999,  cause an amount of the  undersigned's
shares  calculated  at the  above  conversion  rate to be  registered  upon such
Registration  Statement  as may be legally  available so as to cause said shares
subject  to  the  foregoing  conversion  option  to  be  without  the  Rule  144
Restriction. Should Note Holder elect to convert as set forth above prior to the
filing of such Registration Statement, then the shares Note Holder receives upon
such  conversion  shall  thereafter  be included in the  foregoing  Registration
Statement.  In no event shall the number of shares to be registered and issuable
hereunder as set forth above exceed 200,000.  In the event the undersigned shall
not cause said  Registration  Statement to become effective within the foregoing
period,  Note Holder shall be entitled to receive an additional  twenty thousand
(20,000) shares of the undersigned common stock which shares shall be subject to
all applicable securities laws.

         Upon the  failure  to pay the sums of money due under  this  Promissory
Note,  which default  shall remain  uncured for a period of thirty (30) days, or
the appointment of a receiver of the property,  rights,  credits,  assets or any
part thereof, of the undersigned,  or the filing of a petition by or against the
undersigned  for relief under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or an assignment
of all the  undersigned's  assets for the benefit of creditors,  the Note Holder
may at its option:

         (1) Declare all sums owing Note Holder from the  undersigned  hereunder
to be forthwith due and payable.

         (2) Collect interest on the principal  balance owing hereon at the rate
provided herein from the date of such default,  and if this Note is referred for
collection,   collect  all  reasonable  expenses  incurred  by  Note  Holder  in
connection  with the  collection  of this  Note,  including  but not  limited to
reasonable attorney's fees.

         Note Holder  shall not, by any act,  delay,  omission or  otherwise  be
deemed to have waived any of his rights or remedies  hereunder  and no waiver by
the Note Holder of his rights or remedies  hereunder shall be valid against Note
Holder  unless in writing,  signed by Note  Holder,  and then only to the extent
therein  set  forth.  The  waiver  by the Note  Holder  of any  right or  remedy
hereunder  upon any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or
remedy which he would otherwise have had on any future occasion.

         The undersigned shall have the right to make  prepayments,  in whole or
in part,  of this Note  without  premium or penalty  and from time to time.  All
prepayments shall be applied against the payments due in the order of maturity.

         The  undersigned  hereby waives  presentment  for payment,  protest and
notice for non-payment of this Note.

         This Note shall be governed by and  construed  in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State of New  Jersey  with  venue  situate  therein  and may not be
assigned  in  whole  or in  part  without  the  prior  written  consent  of  the
undersigned in each instance.

conditions.

         (i)      Terms of Warrant.

         (iii) Restricted Nature of Underlying Stock.

                  Unless  the   Company   receives  an  opinion   from   counsel
satisfactory  to it that  such a legend  is not  required,  in  order to  assure
compliance  with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), or any
applicable  State  Securities  Laws, each certificate for shares of Common Stock
underlying  this  Warrant  ("Underlying  Shares")  shall  bear a legend  reading
substantially as follows:

         registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended  ("Act").  Such
         securities  have been acquired for  investment  and may not be publicly
         offered  or  sold  in the  absence  of (1)  an  effective  registration
         statement for such securities  under the Act; (2) An opinion of counsel
         acceptable to the Company prior to any proposed  transfer to the effect
         that  registration  is not  required  under  the  Act;  or (3) a letter

         of the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  to the effect that it will
         not  take any  enforcement  action  if the  proposed  transfer  is made
         without registration under the Act."


         (iv)     Disposition of Warrant or Underlying Shares.

         The Holder, by acceptance hereof,  agrees for itself and any subsequent
owner(s) that, in addition to the requirements  set forth above,  disposition of
any Warrant or the underlying Shares shall not be made unless and until:

                  (a) The Company has  received an opinion  from counsel for the
Holder(s) of the Warrant or underlying Shares stating that no registration under
the 1933 Act is required with respect to such disposition; or

                  (b) A registration statement or post-effective  amendment to a
registration  statement  under the 1933 Act has been filed and made effective by
the Commission covering such proposed disposition.

such,  shall not be entitled by reason of this Warrant to any rights  whatsoever
of a shareholder of the Company.

         (vii)  Taxes.  The  Company  will pay all  document  and stamp taxes in
respect of the issue of this Warrant or the Common Shares issuable upon exercise
thereof.

         (viii) Miscellaneous. References herein describing this instrument as a
"Warrant"  or  "Warrants",  refer  solely to the rights  conferred  upon  Holder
hereby.

         (ix) Warrant  Subject to  Restrictions  under  Securities Act. No sale,
offer to sell or transfer of the Warrants represented by this certificate or the
underlying  shares shall be made unless a registration  statement under the 1933
Act,  with  respect to such  Options or shares is then in effect or an exemption
from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act is then in fact applicable to
such  shares  or  Common  Stock  Purchase  Warrants.  The  availability  of such
exemption shall be established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company and
its counsel.

         (x)  Registration  of Shares.  The Company  hereby  agrees to cause the
Underlying Shares of common stock  represented  hereby to be registered with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission  pursuant to a registration  statement under

                                                __      April 23, 1999

THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN  REGISTERED  UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
("THE  SECURITIES  ACT"),  OR ANY STATE  SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED,
SOLD,  PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE  TRANSFERRED  UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER ALL APPLICABLE
SECURITIES  LAWS OR UNLESS  EXEMPTION FROM SUCH  REGISTRATION  REQUIREMENTS  ARE
AVAILABLE,  WHICH EXEMPTIONS SHALL BE ESTABLISHED TO THE REASONABLE SATISFACTION
OF THE COMPANY, BY OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHERWISE.


         FOR VALUE  RECEIVED,  the  undersigned  promises to pay to the order of
VIVIANA PARTNERS, LP, (herein called "Note Holder") located at 1 Sansome Street,
Suiye 3900, San Francisco, CA 94104, or such other place as may be designated in
writing by Note Holder, the sum of THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND ($300,000.00) DOLLARS.
together with interest as hereinafter provided. Subject to the conversion and/or
prepayment as hereinafter  contained,  the entire principal amount due hereunder
shall be paid to the Note  Holder in one  payment on the date which is  Fourteen
(14) months from the date hereof.

         The undersigned  borrower shall pay the Note Holder interest commencing
with the date  hereof,  computed  on the  basis of a 360 day year on the  unpaid
principal  balance at the rate of Seven  (7%)  percent  per annum with  interest
payments due hereunder payable semi-annually during the term hereof.

         Note Holder is hereby granted an option to convert, in increments of no
less than  $25,000.00,  up to the entire  principal  balance due hereunder  into
shares of common  stock of the  undersigned  at a  conversion  price of $.50 per
share.  Said option shall be  exercisable  by Note Holder upon at least five (5)
business days prior written notice, as hereinafter  provided, to the undersigned
at any time and from time to time  during the term hereof but no later than five
(5) business days prior to the aforementioned  principal due date hereunder.  In
the event  Note  Holder  elects  to so  convert  any  portion  of the  principal
otherwise due hereunder,  Note Holder shall provide the undersigned with written
notice of such conversion  option exercise as aforesaid  whereupon this Note and
all sums due Note  Holder  hereunder  shall be deemed to be  partially  or fully
pre-paid and satisfied as the case may be dependent  upon the principal  sums so
converted,  and the undersigned shall, as soon as may be practicable thereafter,
deliver or cause to be  delivered  to Note Holder all shares of common stock due
to Note Holder as aforesaid.  All notices shall be in writing, sent via next day
overnight mail or delivery  service with receipt  therefor,  and shall be deemed
given as of the date of such mailing.  All shares  received  hereunder  shall be
subject to all applicable  securities laws.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  the
undersigned shall, within six (6) months of the date hereof,  cause an amount of
the  undersigned's  shares  calculated  at  the  above  conversion  rate  to  be
registered upon such Registration Statement as may be legally available so as to
cause said shares subject to the foregoing  conversion  option to be without the
Rule 144  Restriction.  Should Note  Holder  elect to convert as set forth above
prior to the filing of such Registration Statement,  then the shares Note Holder
receives  upon such  conversion  shall  thereafter  be included in the foregoing
Registration  Statement. In no event shall the number of shares to be registered
and  issuable  hereunder  as set forth above  exceed  600,000.  In the event the
undersigned  shall not cause said  Registration  Statement  to become  effective
within the  foregoing  six (6) months  period,  Note Holder shall be entitled to
receive an additional sixty thousand  (60,000) shares of the undersigned  common
stock  which  shall be  included  within  the  Registration  Statement.  Nothing
contained   hereinabove  shall  relieve  the  undersigned  of  its  registration
obligation as set forth above.

         In the event the undersigned shall, during the fourteen (14) month term
hereof,  enter into  additional  financing  which  provides  for either a direct
equity  investment or the  conversion  of debt into shares of the  undersigned's
common  stock at an  investment  or  conversion  rate less than  $0.50 per share
("Favored  Conversion Rate"),  Note Holder shall then be entitled to convert the
then  outstanding  principal  balance due  hereunder at such Favored  Conversion
Rate. Any such election by Note Holder to convert at the Favored Conversion Rate
as set forth above shall  require Note Holder to convert into such shares of the
undersigned's  common  stock upon the same terns and  conditions  as such direct
equity investment or such additional convertible debt financing, as the case may
be. For purposes of example and not by way of  limitation,  a subsequent  equity
investment or convertible  debt financing into  restricted  shares would provide
Note  Holder with the  ability to convert at the  Favored  Conversion  Rate into
common stock with the same restrictions.

         Upon the  failure  to pay the sums of money due under  this  Promissory
Note,  which default  shall remain  uncured for a period of thirty (30) days, or
the appointment of a receiver of the property,  rights,  credits,  assets or any
part thereof, of the undersigned,  or the filing of a petition by or against the
undersigned  for relief under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or an assignment
of all the  undersigned's  assets for the benefit of creditors,  the Note Holder
may at its option:

         (1) Declare all sums owing Note Holder from the  undersigned  hereunder
to be forthwith due and payable.

         (2) Collect interest on the principal  balance owing hereon at the rate
provided herein from the date of such default,  and if this Note is referred for
collection,   collect  all  reasonable  expenses  incurred  by  Note  Holder  in
connection  with the  collection  of this  Note,  including  but not  limited to
reasonable attorney's fees.

         Note Holder  shall not, by any act,  delay,  omission or  otherwise  be
deemed to have waived any of his rights or remedies  hereunder  and no waiver by
the Note Holder of his rights or remedies  hereunder shall be valid against Note
Holder  unless in writing,  signed by Note  Holder,  and then only to the extent
therein  set  forth.  The  waiver  by the Note  Holder  of any  right or  remedy
hereunder  upon any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or
remedy which he would otherwise have had on any future occasion.

         The undersigned shall have the right to make  prepayments,  in whole or
in part,  of this Note without  premium or penalty and from time to time upon at
least  thirty (30) days prior  written  notice to Note Holder.  All  prepayments
shall be applied against the payments due in the order of maturity.


         The  undersigned  hereby waives  presentment  for payment,  protest and
notice for non-payment of this Note.

         This Note shall be governed by and  construed  in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State of New  Jersey  with  venue  situate  therein  and may not be
assigned  in  whole  or in  part  without  the  prior  written  consent  of  the
undersigned in each instance.

         (ii)     Exercise of Warrant.

                  This  Warrant may only be  exercised  once during the Exercise
Period by surrendering the form of subscription attached hereto duly executed by
the  Holder,  to the  Company  at  its  principal  office  at 50  Tannery  Road,
Branchburg,  New Jersey 08876 or at such other  address as may be  designated by
the Company, and by simultaneously paying the Exercise Price in cash or check to
the  Company.  The date of  exercise  shall be the date on which  the  completed
subscription agreement, and Exercise Price are tendered to the Company.


         (iii) Restricted Nature of Underlying Stock.

                  Unless  the   Company   receives  an  opinion   from   counsel
satisfactory  to it that  such a legend  is not  required,  in  order to  assure
compliance  with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), or any
applicable  State  Securities  Laws, each certificate for shares of Common Stock
underlying  this  Warrant  ("Underlying  Shares")  shall  bear a legend  reading
substantially as follows:


         "The  Securities   represented  by  this   certificate  have  not  been
         registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended  ("Act").  Such
         securities  have been acquired for  investment  and may not be publicly
         offered  or  sold  in the  absence  of (1)  an  effective  registration
         statement for such securities  under the Act; (2) An opinion of counsel
         acceptable to the Company prior to any proposed  transfer to the effect
         that  registration  is not  required  under  the  Act;  or (3) a letter
         presented to the Company prior to any proposed transfer, from the staff
         of the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  to the effect that it will
         not  take any  enforcement  action  if the  proposed  transfer  is made
         without registration under the Act."


         (iv)     Disposition of Warrant or Underlying Shares.

         The Holder, by acceptance  hereof,  agrees for itself that this Warrant
shall not be assignable or  transferable in whole or in part by Holder under any
circumstances  and any such attempted  assignment or transfer shall  immediately
cause this Warrant to expire and be rendered  null and void.  In addition to the
requirements set forth above,  disposition of any of the underlying Shares shall
not be made unless and until:

                  (a) The Company has  received an opinion  from counsel for the
Holder, satisfactory to the Company, stating that no registration under the 1933
Act is required with respect to such disposition; or

                  (b) A registration statement or post-effective  amendment to a
registration  statement  under the 1933 Act has been filed and made effective by
the Commission covering such proposed disposition.

         (v) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation. Upon receipt by the Company
of evidence satisfactory to it (in the exercise of its reasonable discretion) of
the  ownership  of and the  loss,  theft,  destruction,  or  mutilation  of this
Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of
like tenor.

         (vi) Warrant Holder Not a Shareholder.  Any Holder of this Warrant,  as
such,  shall not be entitled by reason of this Warrant to any rights  whatsoever
of a shareholder of the Company.

         (vii)  Taxes.  The  Company  will pay all  document  and stamp taxes in
respect of the issue of this Warrant or the Common Shares issuable upon exercise
thereof.

         (viii) Miscellaneous. References herein describing this instrument as a
"Warrant"  or  "Warrants",  refer  solely to the rights  conferred  upon  Holder
hereby.

         (ix) Warrant  Subject to  Restrictions  under  Securities Act. No sale,
offer to sell or transfer of the Warrants represented by this certificate can or
will be made in as much as the Warrant is not assignable or  transferable  under
any circumstances and any attempt to assign or transfer this Warrant shall cause
the same to  immediately  expire  and be null and  void in  accordance  with its
terms. No sale, offer to sell or transfer of the underlying shares shall be made
unless a registration  statement under the 1933 Act, with respect to such shares
is then in effect or an exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933
Act is  then  in  fact  applicable  to such  shares.  The  availability  of such
exemption shall be established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company and
its counsel.

         (x)  "Piggyback  Registration"  of Shares.  If the  Company at any time
undertakes to register any of its  securities  under the  Securities Act of 1933
(the "1933 Act") (other than in connection with a merger or pursuant to Form S-8
or other comparable  form),  the Company shall include the Underlying  Shares of
common stock represented hereby in such registration, provided, however, that if
such  registration is effected in connection  with an underwritten  offering and
the managing  underwriter  declines to include such Underlying Shares, then, the
Company shall be relieved of its obligation to register such shares with respect
to that particular offering.


         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be signed by
a duly authorized officer.

                                    AGREEMENT



Mr. Seymour Kroll
3333 West Ellsworth Road
Ann Arbor, MI  48108



Dear Seymour,

         As per  our  recent  discussions,  this  letter  shall  set  forth  the
understanding upon which our agreement will be based.

         You agree to provide the sum of  $200,000.00  to the Company  within 10
days of our  agreement  by any  combination  of checks and wire  transfers.  The
aggregate total of $200,000.00 ("Obligation") shall bear interest at the rate of
twelve (12%) percent per annum calculated based upon the sum outstanding payable
upon  maturity and said  Obligation  shall be a  convertible  obligation  of the
Company  which shall mature,  subject to repayment as set forth below,  fourteen
(14)  months  from the date of  funding  by you.  Additionally,  subject  to the
repayment terms contained  hereinafter,  the amount  outstanding may at any time
upon your election during said fourteen (14) month period,  be convertible  into
common  shares of Company's  stock at the  conversion  rate of $0.50 of debt per
share.  Any  such  conversions  must  be  made in  increments  of no  less  than
$50,000.00  and upon at least five (5) business days prior written notice to the
Company  and any such  conversions  shall  reduce  the  Obligation.  All  shares
received  hereunder  shall  be  subject  to  all  applicable   securities  laws.
Notwithstanding the foregoing,  the Company shall, within six (6) months of your
wire  transfer,  cause an  amount  of  Company  shares  calculated  at the above
conversion  rate to be  registered  upon such  Registration  Statement as may be
legally  available  so as to  cause  said  shares  to be  without  the  Rule 144
Restriction.  Should you elect to convert as set forth above prior to the filing
of such Registration Statement, then the shares you receive upon such conversion
shall  thereafter be included in the  foregoing  Registration  Statement.  In no
event shall the number of shares to be registered and issuable  hereunder as set
forth above exceed 400,000 shares.

         Notwithstanding  anything  contained  hereinabove to the contrary,  the
Company may elect to prepay all or part of said Obligation  without penalty.  As
security for said  Obligation  by the Company,  all Office  Specialty  royalties
received by the Company  shall be paid into a bank account that is controlled by
you and such royalties  shall be applied against the reduction of the Obligation
until the  obligation  is paid in full or  otherwise  satisfied  as  hereinabove
provided.  The  Company  specifically  agrees  that at no time shall it elect to
offset against such royalties any commissions due to Office Specialty  resulting
from any of Office  Specialty's  commissionable  sales of the  Company  software
products. As further security for the Obligation,  the Company shall provide you
with a 50%  security  interest  in the  EMS(TM)  software  in  which a  security
interest is currently held by the undersigned in an individual  capacity and for
which you will be added as an  additional  secured  party to the  extent of your
interests therein as provided herein.

         Furthermore,  the Company hereby  represents that except for a security
interest  held by Michael G. Martin,  there are no other known  encumbrances  of
record on the Office Specialty  royalties  stream.  Michael G. Martin has agreed
under  separate  cover that your  security  interest will take priority over his
regarding this Office Specialty royalty stream.

         Furthermore  as an additional  consideration  within this agreement and
upon execution of this agreement you will be offered a position on the Company's
Board of  Directors  and shall be entitled to receive the same stock  options as
provided to all other Board Members.

         I trust that the foregoing  properly  reflects our understanding and if
so, please  signify the same where  indicated  below and return a fully executed
copy to me via fax.  Please  initial each of the pages near my initials to avoid
any confusion with previous draft versions.


                                 Very truly yours,

                       MAGNITUDE INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INC.

                           CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

$200,000.00                                           Branchburg, New Jersey
                                                      April  26, 1999

THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN  REGISTERED  UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
("THE  SECURITIES  ACT"),  OR ANY STATE  SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED,
SOLD,  PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE  TRANSFERRED  UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER ALL APPLICABLE
SECURITIES  LAWS OR UNLESS  EXEMPTION FROM SUCH  REGISTRATION  REQUIREMENTS  ARE
AVAILABLE,  WHICH EXEMPTIONS SHALL BE ESTABLISHED TO THE REASONABLE SATISFACTION
OF THE COMPANY, BY OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHERWISE.

         FOR VALUE  RECEIVED,  the  undersigned  promises to pay to the order of
SEYMOUR  KROLL,  (herein  called "Note  Holder")  located at 3333 West Ellsworth
Road, Ann Arbor,  MI 48108,  or such other place as may be designated in writing
by Note Holder, the sum of TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND ($200,000.00) DOLLARS,  together
with  interest  as  hereinafter  provided.  Subject  to  the  conversion  and/or
prepayment as hereinafter  contained,  the entire principal amount due hereunder
shall be paid to the Note Holder in one payment  together with accrued  interest
thereon on the date which is Fourteen (14) months from the date hereof.

         The undersigned  borrower shall pay the Note Holder interest commencing
with the date  hereof,  computed  on the  basis of a 360 day year on the  unpaid
principal balance at the rate of Twelve (12%) percent per annum.

         Note Holder is hereby granted an option to convert, in increments of no
less than  $50,000.00,  up to the entire  principal  balance due hereunder  into
shares of common  stock of the  undersigned  at a  conversion  price of $.50 per
share.  Said option shall be  exercisable  by Note Holder upon at least five (5)
business days prior written notice, as hereinafter  provided, to the undersigned
at any time and from time to time  during the term hereof but no later than five
(5) business days prior to the aforementioned  principal due date hereunder.  In
the event  Note  Holder  elects  to so  convert  any  portion  of the  principal
otherwise due hereunder,  Note Holder shall provide the undersigned with written
notice of such conversion  option exercise as aforesaid  whereupon this Note and
all sums due Note  Holder  hereunder  shall be deemed to be  partially  or fully
pre-paid and satisfied as the case may be dependent  upon the principal  sums so
converted,  and the undersigned shall, as soon as may be practicable thereafter,
deliver or cause to be  delivered  to Note Holder all shares of common stock due
to Note Holder as aforesaid.  For purposes of this  paragraph  only, all notices
shall be in writing,  sent via next day overnight mail or delivery  service with
receipt therefor,  and shall be deemed given as of the date of such mailing. All
shares received  hereunder shall be subject to all applicable  securities  laws.
Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  the undersigned shall, within six (6) months of
the date hereof,  cause an amount of the undersigned's  shares calculated at the
above conversion rate to be registered upon such  Registration  Statement as may
be  legally  available  so as to cause  said  shares  subject  to the  foregoing
conversion  option to be without  the Rule 144  Restriction.  Should Note Holder
elect to convert  as set forth  above  prior to the filing of such  Registration
Statement,  then the shares  Note Holder  receives  upon such  conversion  shall
thereafter  be included in the  foregoing  Registration  Statement.  In no event
shall the number of shares to be registered and issuable  hereunder as set forth
above exceed 400,000 shares.

         Upon the  failure  to pay the sums of money due under  this  Promissory
Note,  which default  shall remain  uncured for a period of thirty (30) days, or
the appointment of a receiver of the property,  rights,  credits,  assets or any
part thereof, of the undersigned,  or the filing of a petition by or against the
undersigned  for relief under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or an assignment
of all the  undersigned's  assets for the benefit of creditors,  the Note Holder
may at its option:

         (1) Declare all sums owing Note Holder from the  undersigned  hereunder
to be forthwith due and payable.

         (2) Collect interest on the principal  balance owing hereon at the rate
provided herein from the date of such default,  and if this Note is referred for
collection,   collect  all  reasonable  expenses  incurred  by  Note  Holder  in
connection  with the  collection  of this  Note,  including  but not  limited to
reasonable attorney's fees.

         Note Holder  shall not, by any act,  delay,  omission or  otherwise  be
deemed to have waived any of his rights or remedies  hereunder  and no waiver by
the Note Holder of his rights or remedies  hereunder shall be valid against Note
Holder  unless in writing,  signed by Note  Holder,  and then only to the extent
therein  set  forth.  The  waiver  by the Note  Holder  of any  right or  remedy
hereunder  upon any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or
remedy which he would otherwise have had on any future occasion.

         The undersigned shall have the right to make  prepayments,  in whole or
in part, of this Note without premium or penalty and from time to time and shall
cause the royalty  payments to which it is  otherwise  entitled to receive  from
1320236  Ontario Inc.  arising from and subject to that  certain  Marketing  and
Development  Agreement dated  November,  1998 by and between the undersigned and
said  1320236  Ontario  Inc. as aforesaid to be paid to Note Holder as and for a
prepayment  reduction of the sum due Note Holder  hereunder.  All rights of Note
Holder to such royalty  payments shall cease upon the full  satisfaction  of the
undersigned's payment obligation hereunder to Note Holder in accordance with the
terms  hereinabove  contained.  All  prepayments  shall be applied  against  the
payments due in the order of maturity.

         The  undersigned  hereby waives  presentment  for payment,  protest and
notice for non-payment of this Note.

         This Note shall be governed by and  construed  in  accordance  with the
laws of the  State of New  Jersey  with  venue  situate  therein  and may not be
assigned  in  whole  or in  part  without  the  prior  written  consent  of  the
undersigned in each instance.

                                  Exhibit 4.12
                             SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT
             Pursuant to Section 4 (2) of the Securities Act of 1933

     Subscription  Agreement and Questionnaire of Magnitude Information Systems,
Inc.

         The undersigned hereby subscribes for the purchase of ___________ Units
consisting  of  _____________  shares  (the  "Shares")  of the  common  stock of
Magnitude  Information  Systems,  Inc.  (the  "Company")  and a warrant  for the
purchase of ___________ common shares of the Company, a copy of which is annexed
hereto as Exhibit A (the "Warrant"),  for the purchase price of $______________.
The Shares and the Warrant,  as well as the shares  underlying the Warrant,  are
sometimes   hereinafter   collectively   referred  to  as  the   "Security"   or
"Securities". The entire purchase price is due and payable upon the execution of
this Subscription Agreement,  and shall be paid by check, subject to collection,
or by wire  transfer,  made  payable  to the  order  of  "Magnitude  Information
Systems,  Inc." The Company shall have the right to reject this  subscription in
whole or in part.

         1 The  undersigned,  in order to induce  the  Company  to  accept  this
Subscription  Agreement  represents,  warrants  and  covenants to the Company as
follows:

                  (a) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that  (i) the  Shares  and
Warrant being purchased  hereunder have not been registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act"), or the securities laws of any State;
(ii) absent an exemption from registration contained in those laws, the issuance
and sale of the Shares and Warrant  would  require  registration;  and (iii) the
Company's  reliance  upon  any  such  exemption  is  invariably  based  upon the
undersigned's  representations,  warranties,  and  agreements  contained in this
Subscription  Agreement (the  Subscription  Agreement and the included  Investor
Questionnaire   are  collectively   referred  to  herein  as  the  "Subscription
Documents").

                  (b) The undersigned agrees that this Subscription Agreement is
and shall be irrevocable unless it has not been accepted by the Company.

                  (c) The  undersigned  has carefully  read the  Company's  Form
10-KSB for the fiscal  year ended  December  31,  1998 and Forms  10-QSB for the
quarters ended March 31, 1999, and June 30, 1999, this Subscription Agreement as
well as the Warrant  attached hereto as Exhibit A,  respectively  (collectively,
the "Disclosure Materials") all of which the undersigned  acknowledges have been
delivered to the undersigned.  The undersigned acknowledges that the undersigned
has been given the  opportunity  to ask questions of, and receive  answers from,
the Company  concerning the terms and conditions of this Subscription  Agreement
and the Disclosure  Materials and to obtain such additional written information,
to the extent the Company  possesses such  information or can acquire it without
unreasonable effort or expense, necessary to verify the accuracy of same, as the
Undersigned desires in order to evaluate the investment. The undersigned further
acknowledges that the undersigned has received no  representations or warranties
from the  Company,  or their  respective  employees  or agents  in  making  this
investment decision other than as set forth in the Disclosure Materials.



<PAGE>





                  (d) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that the  undersigned  has
investigated  the Company's  business,  financial  conditions,  current state of
affairs,  planned  business  and  other  matters  necessary  in  order  for  the
undersigned to make an informed  investment  decision  regarding the purchase of
the Shares and Warrant.

                  (e) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that  the  undersigned  is
purchasing  the Shares and Warrant  without being  furnished  any  prospectus or
written description of the Company,  its business and/or its future plans, other
than the  Disclosure  Materials,  and has  relied  solely  upon  the  Disclosure
Materials  and the  undersigned's  own  investigation  into the  Company and its
proposed operations.

                  (f) The  undersigned  is aware that the purchase of the Shares
and Warrant is a speculative investment involving a high degree of risk and that
there is no  guarantee  that the  undersigned  will  realize  any gain from this
investment, and that the entire investment could be lost.

                  (g) The  undersigned  understands  that no  federal  or  state
agency has made any  finding or  determination  regarding  the  fairness of this
private offering, or any recommendation or endorsement of this private offering.

                  (h) The  undersigned  is purchasing the Shares and Warrant for
the undersigned's  own account,  with the intention of holding the Security with
no present  intention  of  dividing or allowing  others to  participate  in this
investment or of reselling or otherwise  participating,  directly or indirectly,
in a distribution  of the Security,  and shall not make any sale,  transfer,  or
pledge thereof without  registration under the Securities Act and any applicable
securities  laws of any  state or  unless  an  exemption  from  registration  is
available under those laws.

                  (i) The  undersigned  will not sell  short in any  manner  the
Shares or the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrant.

                  (j) The  undersigned is financially  able to bear the economic
risk of this  investment,  including  the ability to hold the Shares and Warrant
indefinitely or to afford a complete loss of the undersigned's investment in the
Shares and Warrant.



<PAGE>



                  (k) The undersigned  represents that the undersigned's overall
commitment   to   investments   which  are  not   readily   marketable   is  not
disproportionate  to its net worth, and the investment in the Shares and Warrant
will not cause such overall  commitment  to become  excessive.  The  undersigned
understands  that the statutory  basis on which the Shares and Warrant are being
sold to the  undersigned  would not be  available if the  undersigned's  present
intention  were to hold the Shares and Warrant  for a fixed  period or until the
occurrence of a certain event. The undersigned  realizes that in the view of the
Securities  and Exchange  Commission,  a purchase  now with a present  intent to
resell by reason of a foreseeable specific contingency or any anticipated change
in the market value, or in the condition of the Company, or that of the industry
in which  the  business  of the  Company  is  engaged  or in  connection  with a
contemplated liquidation,  or settlement of any loan obtained by the undersigned
for the  acquisition  of the Shares and  Warrant,  and for which such Shares and
Warrant may be pledged as security or as donations  to  religious or  charitable
institutions  for the purpose of  securing a deduction  on an income tax return,
would,  in fact,  represent  a  purchase  with an intent  inconsistent  with the
undersigned's  representations  to the Company,  and the Securities and Exchange
Commission  would  then  regard  such  sale as one for which no  exemption  from
registration is available.  The undersigned will not pledge,  transfer or assign
this Subscription Agreement.

                  (l) The  undersigned  represents  that the funds  provided for
this investment are either separate property of the Undersigned,  other property
over which the undersigned  has the right of control,  or are otherwise funds as
to which the undersigned has the sole right of management.

                  (m) The address shown under the undersigned's signature at the
end of this  Subscription  Agreement  is the  undersigned's  principal  business
address if a corporation or other entity.

                  (n) The  undersigned  has such  knowledge  and  experience  in
financial  and business  matters as to be capable of  evaluating  the merits and
risks of an investment in the Shares and Warrant.

                  (o) The undersigned acknowledges that the certificates for the
securities  comprising the Shares and the shares of Common Stock  underlying the
Warrant which the undersigned  will receive will contain a legend  substantially
as follows:

          THE SECURITIES WHICH ARE REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
          REGISTERED  UNDER  THE  SECURITIES  ACT  OF  1933,  AS  AMENDED.   THE
          SECURITIES  HAVE BEEN  ACQUIRED FOR  INVESTMENT  PURPOSES ONLY AND NOT
          WITH  A  VIEW  TO  DISTRIBUTION  OR  RESALE,  AND  MAY  NOT  BE  SOLD,

indefinitely or to afford a complete loss of the undersigned's investment in the
Shares and Warrant.



<PAGE>



                  (k) The undersigned  represents that the undersigned's overall
commitment   to   investments   which  are  not   readily   marketable   is  not
disproportionate  to its net worth, and the investment in the Shares and Warrant
will not cause such overall  commitment  to become  excessive.  The  undersigned
understands  that the statutory  basis on which the Shares and Warrant are being
sold to the  undersigned  would not be  available if the  undersigned's  present
intention  were to hold the Shares and Warrant  for a fixed  period or until the
occurrence of a certain event. The undersigned  realizes that in the view of the
Securities  and Exchange  Commission,  a purchase  now with a present  intent to
resell by reason of a foreseeable specific contingency or any anticipated change
in the market value, or in the condition of the Company, or that of the industry
in which  the  business  of the  Company  is  engaged  or in  connection  with a
contemplated liquidation,  or settlement of any loan obtained by the undersigned
for the  acquisition  of the Shares and  Warrant,  and for which such Shares and
Warrant may be pledged as security or as donations  to  religious or  charitable
institutions  for the purpose of  securing a deduction  on an income tax return,
would,  in fact,  represent  a  purchase  with an intent  inconsistent  with the
undersigned's  representations  to the Company,  and the Securities and Exchange
Commission  would  then  regard  such  sale as one for which no  exemption  from
registration is available.  The undersigned will not pledge,  transfer or assign
this Subscription Agreement.

                  (l) The  undersigned  represents  that the funds  provided for
this investment are either separate property of the Undersigned,  other property
over which the undersigned  has the right of control,  or are otherwise funds as
to which the undersigned has the sole right of management.

                  (m) The address shown under the undersigned's signature at the
end of this  Subscription  Agreement  is the  undersigned's  principal  business
address if a corporation or other entity.

                  (n) The  undersigned  has such  knowledge  and  experience  in
financial  and business  matters as to be capable of  evaluating  the merits and
risks of an investment in the Shares and Warrant.

                  (o) The undersigned acknowledges that the certificates for the
securities  comprising the Shares and the shares of Common Stock  underlying the
Warrant which the undersigned  will receive will contain a legend  substantially
as follows:

                  THE SECURITIES  WHICH ARE REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE
                  NOT BEEN  REGISTERED  UNDER  THE  SECURITIES  ACT OF 1933,  AS
                  AMENDED.  THE  SECURITIES  HAVE BEEN  ACQUIRED FOR  INVESTMENT
                  PURPOSES ONLY AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO  DISTRIBUTION  OR RESALE,
                  AND MAY NOT BE SOLD,  TRANSFERRED,  MADE SUBJECT TO A SECURITY
                  INTEREST,  PLEDGED,  HYPOTHECATED  OR  OTHERWISE  DISPOSED  OF
                  UNLESS AND UNTIL  REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933,
                  AS  AMENDED,  OR THE  RECEIPT BY THE  COMPANY OF AN OPINION OF
                  COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER HEREOF  SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT
                  REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT.

                  (p)  This  Subscription  Agreement  and  all  representations,
warranties  and  statements  made herein are true,  complete  and correct in all
material respects.

                  (q) The undersigned  acknowledges that the Company,  except as
set forth in the Shares and  Warrant,  is under no  obligation  to register  the
Shares and Warrant under the Securities Act or any state  securities laws, or to
take any  action to make any  exemption  from any such  registration  provisions
available,  except that the Company is extending "Piggyback Registration" rights
with  respect to the  Shares,  to the effect  that it include  the Shares in any
registration  of its securities  under the Securities Act of 1933 (other than in
connection  with a merger  or  pursuant  to Form S-8 or other  comparable  form)
except  in case of an  underwritten  offering  where  the  managing  underwriter
declines to include such Shares.  In the event that the Company  failed to do so
for any reason or that no such registration  giving rise to the exercise of such
"Piggyback  Registration"  rights  takes place within a period of six (6) months
from now, the undersigned shall be entitled to receive an additional  __________
shares of the Common Stock of the Company.

                  (r)  This   Subscription   Agreement  is  a  legally   binding
obligation of the undersigned in accordance with its terms.

indemnify,  save and hold the Company, and their respective officers,  directors

no  party  shall  be  deemed  to  have  waived  any of his or her or its  rights
hereunder or under any other  agreement,  instrument  or papers signed by any of
them with respect to the subject  matter hereof unless such waiver is in writing

waiver of, any right or remedy on any future  occasion.  All rights and remedies
with respect to the subject matter hereof,  whether  evidenced  hereby or by any
other agreement,  instrument, or paper, will be cumulative, and may be exercised

undersigned  hereby  consents to the  jurisdiction of the courts of the State of
New Jersey  and/or the United  States  District  Court for the  District  of New

binding upon the Company  until the Company  accepts it, which  acceptance is at

Agreement shall be null and void if the Company does not accept it as aforesaid.

Subscription  Agreement  as well as the  Warrant  attached  hereto as Exhibit A,
respectively  (collectively,  the  "Disclosure  Materials")  all  of  which  the
undersigned acknowledges have been delivered to the undersigned. The undersigned
acknowledges  that  the  undersigned  has  been  given  the  opportunity  to ask
questions of, and receive  answers from,  the Company  concerning  the terms and
conditions of this  Subscription  Agreement and the Disclosure  Materials and to
obtain such additional written information,  to the extent the Company possesses
such  information  or can  acquire it without  unreasonable  effort or  expense,
necessary to verify the accuracy of same, as the Undersigned desires in order to
evaluate  the  investment.   The  undersigned  further   acknowledges  that  the
undersigned has received no representations  or warranties from the Company,  or
their  respective  employees or agents in making this investment  decision other
than as set forth in the Disclosure Materials.



<PAGE>





                  (d) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that the  undersigned  has
investigated  the Company's  business,  financial  conditions,  current state of
affairs,  planned  business  and  other  matters  necessary  in  order  for  the
undersigned to make an informed  investment  decision  regarding the purchase of
the Shares and Warrant.

                  (e) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that  the  undersigned  is
purchasing  the Shares and Warrant  without being  furnished  any  prospectus or
written description of the Company,  its business and/or its future plans, other
than the  Disclosure  Materials,  and has  relied  solely  upon  the  Disclosure
Materials  and the  undersigned's  own  investigation  into the  Company and its
proposed operations.

                  (f) The  undersigned  is aware that the purchase of the Shares
and Warrant is a speculative investment involving a high degree of risk and that
there is no  guarantee  that the  undersigned  will  realize  any gain from this
investment, and that the entire investment could be lost.

                  (g) The  undersigned  understands  that no  federal  or  state
agency has made any  finding or  determination  regarding  the  fairness of this
private offering, or any recommendation or endorsement of this private offering.

                  (h) The  undersigned  is purchasing the Shares and Warrant for
the undersigned's  own account,  with the intention of holding the Security with
no present  intention  of  dividing or allowing  others to  participate  in this
investment or of reselling or otherwise  participating,  directly or indirectly,
in a distribution  of the Security,  and shall not make any sale,  transfer,  or
pledge thereof without  registration under the Securities Act and any applicable
securities  laws of any  state or  unless  an  exemption  from  registration  is
available under those laws.

                  (i) The  undersigned  will not sell  short in any  manner  the
Shares or the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrant.

                  (j) The  undersigned is financially  able to bear the economic
risk of this  investment,  including  the ability to hold the Shares and Warrant
indefinitely or to afford a complete loss of the undersigned's investment in the
Shares and Warrant.



<PAGE>



                  (k) The undersigned  represents that the undersigned's overall
commitment   to   investments   which  are  not   readily   marketable   is  not
disproportionate  to its net worth, and the investment in the Shares and Warrant
will not cause such overall  commitment  to become  excessive.  The  undersigned
understands  that the statutory  basis on which the Shares and Warrant are being
sold to the  undersigned  would not be  available if the  undersigned's  present
intention  were to hold the Shares and Warrant  for a fixed  period or until the
occurrence of a certain event. The undersigned  realizes that in the view of the
Securities  and Exchange  Commission,  a purchase  now with a present  intent to
resell by reason of a foreseeable specific contingency or any anticipated change
in the market value, or in the condition of the Company, or that of the industry
in which  the  business  of the  Company  is  engaged  or in  connection  with a
contemplated liquidation,  or settlement of any loan obtained by the undersigned
for the  acquisition  of the Shares and  Warrant,  and for which such Shares and
Warrant may be pledged as security or as donations  to  religious or  charitable
institutions  for the purpose of  securing a deduction  on an income tax return,
would,  in fact,  represent  a  purchase  with an intent  inconsistent  with the
undersigned's  representations  to the Company,  and the Securities and Exchange
Commission  would  then  regard  such  sale as one for which no  exemption  from
registration is available.  The undersigned will not pledge,  transfer or assign
this Subscription Agreement.

                  (l) The  undersigned  represents  that the funds  provided for
this investment are either separate property of the Undersigned,  other property
over which the undersigned  has the right of control,  or are otherwise funds as
to which the undersigned has the sole right of management.

                  (m) The address shown under the undersigned's signature at the
end of this  Subscription  Agreement  is the  undersigned's  principal  business
address if a corporation or other entity.

                  (n) The  undersigned  has such  knowledge  and  experience  in
financial  and business  matters as to be capable of  evaluating  the merits and
risks of an investment in the Shares and Warrant.

                  (o) The undersigned acknowledges that the certificates for the
securities  comprising the Shares and the shares of Common Stock  underlying the
Warrant which the undersigned  will receive will contain a legend  substantially
as follows:

      THE SECURITIES  WHICH ARE  REPRESENTED BY THIS  CERTIFICATE  HAVE NOT BEEN
      REGISTERED  UNDER THE SECURITIES  ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.  THE SECURITIES

      RECEIPT BY THE  COMPANY  OF AN  OPINION  OF  COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER  HEREOF
      SATISFACTORY  TO THE COMPANY THAT  REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SUCH
      ACT.

                  (p)  This  Subscription  Agreement  and  all  representations,
warranties  and  statements  made herein are true,  complete  and correct in all
material respects.

                  (q) The undersigned  acknowledges that the Company,  except as
set forth in the Shares and  Warrant,  is under no  obligation  to register  the
Shares and Warrant under the Securities Act or any state  securities laws, or to
take any  action to make any  exemption  from any such  registration  provisions
available,  except that the Company is extending "Piggyback Registration" rights
with  respect to the  Shares,  to the effect  that it include  the Shares in any
registration  of its securities  under the Securities Act of 1933 (other than in
connection  with a merger  or  pursuant  to Form S-8 or other  comparable  form)
except  in case of an  underwritten  offering  where  the  managing  underwriter
declines to include such Shares.

                  (r)  This   Subscription   Agreement  is  a  legally   binding
obligation of the undersigned in accordance with its terms.

indemnify,  save and hold the Company, and their respective officers,  directors

waiver of, any right or remedy on any future  occasion.  All rights and remedies
with respect to the subject matter hereof,  whether  evidenced  hereby or by any
other agreement,  instrument, or paper, will be cumulative, and may be exercised

warranties  with  respect  to the  subject  matter  hereof not set forth in this

heretofore had between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof are
merged in this  Subscription  Agreement  and the Shares and Warrant  which alone
fully and completely expresses their agreement.

             Pursuant to Section 4 (2) of the Securities Act of 1933

 Subscription Agreement and Questionnaire of Magnitude Information Systems, Inc.

         The  undersigned  hereby  subscribes  for the  purchase of  ___________
shares (the  "Shares")  of the Series B Senior  Convertible  Preferred  Stock of
Magnitude Information Systems, Inc. (the "Company"), the designation of which is
annexed  hereto as Exhibit A, for the purchase  price of US$9.00 per Share.  The
Shares are sometimes  hereinafter  collectively referred to as the "Security" or
"Securities". The entire purchase price is due and payable upon the execution of
this Subscription Agreement,  and shall be paid by check, subject to collection,
or by wire  transfer,  made  payable  to the  order  of  "Magnitude  Information
Systems,  Inc." The Company shall have the right to reject this  subscription in
whole or in part.

         1 The  undersigned,  in order to induce  the  Company  to  accept  this
Subscription  Agreement  represents,  warrants  and  covenants to the Company as
follows:

                  (a) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that (i) the Shares  being
purchased  hereunder have not been registered  under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended  ("Securities Act"), or the securities laws of any State; (ii) absent
an exemption from registration contained in those laws, the issuance and sale of
the Shares would require registration; and (iii) the Company's reliance upon any
such  exemption  is  invariably  based upon the  undersigned's  representations,
warranties,  and  agreements  contained  in  this  Subscription  Agreement  (the
Subscription  Agreement and the included Investor Questionnaire are collectively
referred to herein as the "Subscription Documents").

                  (b) The undersigned agrees that this Subscription Agreement is
and shall be irrevocable unless it has not been accepted by the Company.

                  (c) The  undersigned  has carefully  read the  Company's  Form
10-KSB for the fiscal  year ended  December  31,  1998 and Forms  10-QSB for the
quarters  ended March 31, 1999,  June 30, 1999,  and  September  30, 1999,  this
Subscription  Agreement as well as the designation attached hereto as Exhibit A,
respectively  (collectively,  the  "Disclosure  Materials")  all  of  which  the
undersigned acknowledges have been delivered to the undersigned. The undersigned
acknowledges  that  the  undersigned  has  been  given  the  opportunity  to ask
questions of, and receive  answers from,  the Company  concerning  the terms and
conditions of this  Subscription  Agreement and the Disclosure  Materials and to
obtain such additional written information,  to the extent the Company possesses
such  information  or can  acquire it without  unreasonable  effort or  expense,
necessary to verify the accuracy of same, as the Undersigned desires in order to
evaluate  the  investment.   The  undersigned  further   acknowledges  that  the
undersigned has received no representations  or warranties from the Company,  or
their  respective  employees or agents in making this investment  decision other
than as set forth in the Disclosure Materials.



<PAGE>






                  (d) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that the  undersigned  has
investigated  the Company's  business,  financial  conditions,  current state of
affairs,  planned  business  and  other  matters  necessary  in  order  for  the
undersigned to make an informed  investment  decision  regarding the purchase of
the Shares.

                  (e) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that  the  undersigned  is
purchasing  the  Shares  without  being  furnished  any  prospectus  or  written
description of the Company, its business and/or its future plans, other than the
Disclosure  Materials,  and has relied solely upon the Disclosure  Materials and
the  undersigned's   own  investigation   into  the  Company  and  its  proposed
operations.

                  (f) The  undersigned  is aware that the purchase of the Shares
is a speculative investment involving a high degree of risk and that there is no
guarantee that the undersigned will realize any gain from this  investment,  and
that the entire investment could be lost.

                  (g) The  undersigned  understands  that no  federal  or  state
agency has made any  finding or  determination  regarding  the  fairness of this
private offering, or any recommendation or endorsement of this private offering.

                  (h)  The   undersigned   is  purchasing  the  Shares  for  the
undersigned's  own account,  with the  intention of holding the Security with no
present  intention  of  dividing  or  allowing  others  to  participate  in this
investment or of reselling or otherwise  participating,  directly or indirectly,
in a distribution  of the Security,  and shall not make any sale,  transfer,  or
pledge thereof without  registration under the Securities Act and any applicable
securities  laws of any  state or  unless  an  exemption  from  registration  is
available under those laws.

                  (i) The  undersigned  will not sell  short in any  manner  the
Shares.

                  (j) The  undersigned is financially  able to bear the economic
risk of this investment,  including the ability to hold the Shares  indefinitely
or to afford a complete loss of the undersigned's investment in the Shares.



<PAGE>



                  (k) The undersigned  represents that the undersigned's overall
commitment   to   investments   which  are  not   readily   marketable   is  not
disproportionate  to its net worth,  and the  investment  in the Shares will not
cause such overall commitment to become excessive.  The undersigned  understands
that the statutory  basis on which the Shares are being sold to the  undersigned
would not be available if the  undersigned's  present intention were to hold the
Shares  for a fixed  period or until the  occurrence  of a  certain  event.  The
undersigned realizes that in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
a  purchase  now with a present  intent  to  resell  by reason of a  foreseeable
specific  contingency or any  anticipated  change in the market value, or in the
condition of the  Company,  or that of the industry in which the business of the
Company  is  engaged  or in  connection  with  a  contemplated  liquidation,  or
settlement of any loan obtained by the  undersigned  for the  acquisition of the
Shares,  and for which such Shares may be pledged as security or as donations to
religious or charitable  institutions for the purpose of securing a deduction on
an income tax  return,  would,  in fact,  represent  a  purchase  with an intent
inconsistent  with the  undersigned's  representations  to the Company,  and the
Securities and Exchange  Commission would then regard such sale as one for which
no exemption from  registration is available.  The undersigned  will not pledge,
transfer or assign this Subscription Agreement.

                  (l) The  undersigned  represents  that the funds  provided for
this investment are either separate property of the Undersigned,  other property
over which the undersigned  has the right of control,  or are otherwise funds as
to which the undersigned has the sole right of management.

                  (m) The address shown under the undersigned's signature at the
end of this  Subscription  Agreement  is the  undersigned's  principal  business
address if a corporation or other entity.

                  (n) The  undersigned  has such  knowledge  and  experience  in
financial  and business  matters as to be capable of  evaluating  the merits and
risks of an investment in the Shares.

                  (o) The undersigned acknowledges that the certificates for the
securities comprising the Shares which the undersigned will receive will contain
a legend substantially as follows:

         THE SECURITIES  WHICH ARE REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
         REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THE SECURITIES

         AMENDED,  OR THE RECEIPT BY THE COMPANY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE
         HOLDER  HEREOF  SATISFACTORY  TO THE COMPANY THAT  REGISTRATION  IS NOT
         REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT.

                  (p)  This  Subscription  Agreement  and  all  representations,
warranties  and  statements  made herein are true,  complete  and correct in all
material respects.

                  (q) The undersigned  acknowledges that the Company,  except as
set forth in the Shares, is under no obligation to register the Shares under the
Securities Act or any state  securities  laws, or to take any action to make any
exemption  from any such  registration  provisions  available,  except  that the
Company  agrees  to  undertake  to  file  a  registration  statement  under  the
Securities Act of 1933 for the common shares underlying the conversion option of

                             SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT
             Pursuant to Section 4 (2) of the Securities Act of 1933

     Subscription  Agreement and Questionnaire of Magnitude Information Systems,
Inc.
         The  undersigned  hereby  subscribes  for the  purchase of  ___________
Units,  each Unit  consisting of one share (the "Shares") of the Series B Senior
Convertible   Preferred  Stock  of  Magnitude  Information  Systems,  Inc.  (the
"Company"),  the  designation  of which is  annexed  hereto as  Exhibit B, and a
warrant for the  purchase of five (5) common  shares of the  Company,  a copy of
which is annexed hereto as Exhibit A (the "Warrant"),  for the purchase price of
US$9.00 per Unit. The Shares and the Warrant,  as well as the shares  underlying
the  Warrant,  are  sometimes  hereinafter   collectively  referred  to  as  the
"Security" or  "Securities".  The entire  purchase price is due and payable upon
the  execution  of this  Subscription  Agreement,  and  shall be paid by  check,
subject  to  collection,  or by wire  transfer,  made  payable  to the  order of
"Magnitude Information Systems, Inc." The Company shall have the right to reject
this subscription in whole or in part.

         1 The  undersigned,  in order to induce  the  Company  to  accept  this
Subscription  Agreement  represents,  warrants  and  covenants to the Company as
follows:

                  (a) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that  (i) the  Shares  and
Warrant being purchased  hereunder have not been registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act"), or the securities laws of any State;
(ii) absent an exemption from registration contained in those laws, the issuance
and sale of the Shares and Warrant  would  require  registration;  and (iii) the
Company's  reliance  upon  any  such  exemption  is  invariably  based  upon the
undersigned's  representations,  warranties,  and  agreements  contained in this
Subscription  Agreement (the  Subscription  Agreement and the included  Investor
Questionnaire   are  collectively   referred  to  herein  as  the  "Subscription
Documents").

                  (b) The undersigned agrees that this Subscription Agreement is
and shall be irrevocable unless it has not been accepted by the Company.

                  (c) The  undersigned  has carefully  read the  Company's  Form
10-KSB for the fiscal  year ended  December  31,  1998 and Forms  10-QSB for the
quarters  ended March 31, 1999,  June 30, 1999,  and  September  30, 1999,  this
Subscription  Agreement  as well as the  Warrant  attached  hereto as Exhibit A,
respectively  (collectively,  the  "Disclosure  Materials")  all  of  which  the
undersigned acknowledges have been delivered to the undersigned. The undersigned
acknowledges  that  the  undersigned  has  been  given  the  opportunity  to ask
questions of, and receive  answers from,  the Company  concerning  the terms and
conditions of this  Subscription  Agreement and the Disclosure  Materials and to
obtain such additional written information,  to the extent the Company possesses
such  information  or can  acquire it without  unreasonable  effort or  expense,
necessary to verify the accuracy of same, as the Undersigned desires in order to
evaluate  the  investment.   The  undersigned  further   acknowledges  that  the
undersigned has received no representations  or warranties from the Company,  or
their  respective  employees or agents in making this investment  decision other
than as set forth in the Disclosure Materials.

                                                                181

                  (d) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that the  undersigned  has
investigated  the Company's  business,  financial  conditions,  current state of
affairs,  planned  business  and  other  matters  necessary  in  order  for  the
undersigned to make an informed  investment  decision  regarding the purchase of
the Shares and Warrant.

                  (e) The  undersigned  acknowledges  that  the  undersigned  is
purchasing  the Shares and Warrant  without being  furnished  any  prospectus or
written description of the Company,  its business and/or its future plans, other
than the  Disclosure  Materials,  and has  relied  solely  upon  the  Disclosure
Materials  and the  undersigned's  own  investigation  into the  Company and its
proposed operations.

                  (f) The  undersigned  is aware that the purchase of the Shares
and Warrant is a speculative investment involving a high degree of risk and that
there is no  guarantee  that the  undersigned  will  realize  any gain from this
investment, and that the entire investment could be lost.

                  (g) The  undersigned  understands  that no  federal  or  state
agency has made any  finding or  determination  regarding  the  fairness of this
private offering, or any recommendation or endorsement of this private offering.

                  (h) The  undersigned  is purchasing the Shares and Warrant for
the undersigned's  own account,  with the intention of holding the Security with
no present  intention  of  dividing or allowing  others to  participate  in this
investment or of reselling or otherwise  participating,  directly or indirectly,
in a distribution  of the Security,  and shall not make any sale,  transfer,  or
pledge thereof without  registration under the Securities Act and any applicable
securities  laws of any  state or  unless  an  exemption  from  registration  is
available under those laws.

                  (i) The  undersigned  will not sell  short in any  manner  the
Shares or the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrant.

                  (j) The  undersigned is financially  able to bear the economic
risk of this  investment,  including  the ability to hold the Shares and Warrant
indefinitely or to afford a complete loss of the undersigned's investment in the
Shares and Warrant.



<PAGE>



                  (k) The undersigned  represents that the undersigned's overall
commitment   to   investments   which  are  not   readily   marketable   is  not
disproportionate  to its net worth, and the investment in the Shares and Warrant
will not cause such overall  commitment  to become  excessive.  The  undersigned
understands  that the statutory  basis on which the Shares and Warrant are being
sold to the  undersigned  would not be  available if the  undersigned's  present
intention  were to hold the Shares and Warrant  for a fixed  period or until the
occurrence of a certain event. The undersigned  realizes that in the view of the
Securities  and Exchange  Commission,  a purchase  now with a present  intent to
resell by reason of a foreseeable specific contingency or any anticipated change
in the market value, or in the condition of the Company, or that of the industry
in which  the  business  of the  Company  is  engaged  or in  connection  with a
contemplated liquidation,  or settlement of any loan obtained by the undersigned
for the  acquisition  of the Shares and  Warrant,  and for which such Shares and
Warrant may be pledged as security or as donations  to  religious or  charitable
institutions  for the purpose of  securing a deduction  on an income tax return,
would,  in fact,  represent  a  purchase  with an intent  inconsistent  with the
undersigned's  representations  to the Company,  and the Securities and Exchange
Commission  would  then  regard  such  sale as one for which no  exemption  from
registration is available.  The undersigned will not pledge,  transfer or assign
this Subscription Agreement.

                  (l) The  undersigned  represents  that the funds  provided for
this investment are either separate property of the Undersigned,  other property
over which the undersigned  has the right of control,  or are otherwise funds as
to which the undersigned has the sole right of management.

                  (m) The address shown under the undersigned's signature at the
end of this  Subscription  Agreement  is the  undersigned's  principal  business
address if a corporation or other entity.

                  (n) The  undersigned  has such  knowledge  and  experience  in
financial  and business  matters as to be capable of  evaluating  the merits and
risks of an investment in the Shares and Warrant.

                  (o) The undersigned acknowledges that the certificates for the
securities  comprising the Shares and the shares of Common Stock  underlying the
Warrant which the undersigned  will receive will contain a legend  substantially
as follows:

        THE SECURITIES  WHICH ARE REPRESENTED BY THIS  CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
        REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.  THE SECURITIES

        UNLESS  AND  UNTIL  REGISTERED  UNDER  THE  SECURITIES  ACT OF 1933,  AS
        AMENDED,  OR THE  RECEIPT BY THE COMPANY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE
        HOLDER  HEREOF  SATISFACTORY  TO THE COMPANY  THAT  REGISTRATION  IS NOT
        REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT.

                  (p)  This  Subscription  Agreement  and  all  representations,
warranties  and  statements  made herein are true,  complete  and correct in all
material respects.

                  (q) The undersigned  acknowledges that the Company,  except as
set forth in the Shares and  Warrant,  is under no  obligation  to register  the
Shares and Warrant under the Securities Act or any state  securities laws, or to
take any  action to make any  exemption  from any such  registration  provisions
available,  except that the Company  agrees to undertake to file a  registration
statement under the Securities Act of 1933 for the common shares  underlying the
conversion option of the Shares and the Warrant, no later than 30 days after the

                  (r)This Subscription Agreement is a legally binding obligation
of the undersigned in accordance with its terms.

other entity, (i) the undersigned has enclosed with this Subscription  Agreement
appropriate   evidence  of  the  authority  of  the  individual  executing  this
Subscription  Agreement to act on its behalf (e.g., if a trust, a certified copy
of the trust  agreement;  if a  corporation,  a certified  corporate  resolution
authorizing the signature and a certified copy of the articles of incorporation;
or if a partnership,  a certified copy of the partnership  agreement),  (ii) the

undersigned  has the full  power and  authority  to  execute  this  Subscription
Agreement  on  behalf  of  such  entity  and to  make  the  representations  and
warranties  made herein on its behalf,  and (iv) this  investment in the Company
has been affirmatively  authorized,  if required, by the governing board of such
entity and is not prohibited by the governing documents of the entity.

                  (u) The undersigned expressly acknowledges and agrees that the
Company is  relying  upon the  Undersigned's  representation  contained  in this
Subscription  Agreement.   The  undersigned  subscriber  acknowledges  that  the
undersigned   understands   the   meaning   and   legal   consequences   of  the
representations  and warranties  which are contained herein and hereby agrees to
indemnify,  save and hold the Company, and their respective officers,  directors
and counsel  harmless from and against any and all claims or actions arising out
of a breach of any representation, warranty or acknowledgment of the undersigned
contained in any Subscription Document.  Such indemnification shall be deemed to
include not only the specific  liabilities  or obligation  with respect to which
such indemnity is provided,  but also all reasonable  costs,  expenses,  counsel
fees and  expenses  of  settlement  relating  thereto,  whether  or not any such
liability or obligation shall have been reduced to judgment.

them with respect to the subject  matter hereof unless such waiver is in writing
signed by the party  waiving  said  right.  A waiver  on any one  occasion  with
respect to the subject  matter  hereof  shall not be  construed  as a bar to, or
waiver of, any right or remedy on any future  occasion.  All rights and remedies
with respect to the subject matter hereof,  whether  evidenced  hereby or by any
other agreement,  instrument, or paper, will be cumulative, and may be exercised

warranties  with  respect  to the  subject  matter  hereof not set forth in this
Subscription   Agreement,   together  with  the  Shares  and  Warrant   executed
simultaneously  herewith,  constitutes  the entire  agreement  between them with
respect  to  the  subject  matter  hereof.  All  understandings  and  agreements
heretofore had between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof are
merged in this  Subscription  Agreement  and the Shares and Warrant  which alone
fully and completely expresses their agreement.

                  (x) This  Agreement  may not be changed,  modified,  extended,
terminated or discharged orally,  but only by an agreement in writing,  which is
signed by all of the parties to this Agreement.

purposes hereof.

binding upon the Company  until the Company  accepts it, which  acceptance is at
the sole  discretion  of the Company  and is to be  evidenced  by the  Company's
execution of this  Subscription  Agreement where  indicated.  This  Subscription
Agreement shall be null and void if the Company does not accept it as aforesaid.

                  (bb)     Intentionally Omitted.

                  (cc)     Neither  this  Subscription  Agreement  nor  any  of

will be made in as much as the Warrant is not assignable or  transferable  under
any circumstances and any attempt to assign or transfer this Warrant shall cause
the same to  immediately  expire  and be null and  void in  accordance  with its
terms. No sale, offer to sell or transfer of the underlying shares shall be made
unless a registration  statement under the 1933 Act, with respect to such shares
is then in effect or an exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933
Act is  then  in  fact  applicable  to such  shares.  The  availability  of such
exemption shall be established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company and

the said 155,556  shares of MAGNITUDE  common stock,  resulting in an obligation
due from MAGNITUDE to SHAREHOLDER of $374,889.96; and

         WHEREAS,  MAGNITUDE  has  informed  SHAREHOLDER  that  it  would  be of
assistance to MAGNITUDE if it could modify the timing of the payment of the said
$374,889.96 (hereinafter referred to as the AObligation@); and

         WHEREAS, at the request of MAGNITUDE,  SHAREHOLDER has agreed to modify
the timing of the payment of the Obligation  under the Amended Merger  Agreement
and the Put Option on the terms more specifically set forth herein; and

         WHEREAS, the parties have agreed to modify the Amended Merger Agreement
and the Put Option as more specifically set forth herein.

         NOW,  THEREFORE,  in  consideration  of the  foregoing,  and the mutual
promises  and  covenants  contained  herein  and for  other  good  and  valuable
consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as
follows:

         1. MAGNITUDE shall pay interest on the unpaid principal  balance of the
Obligation at the rate of seven percent (7%) per annum,  commencing  February 1,
2000.  MAGNITUDE has paid to SHAREHOLDER  the accrued  interest on March 1, 2000
and April 1, 2000, and shall continue to pay to SHAREHOLDER such interest on the
first day of May,  2000 and the first day of each  succeeding  month  thereafter
until the Obligation has been fully paid and satisfied.

         2. All  remaining  unpaid  amounts due from  MAGNITUDE  to  SHAREHOLDER
 respecting the Obligation shall be paid two (2) years after the date hereof.

         3.  SHAREHOLDER  shall  have the  right to  convert  part or all of the
Obligation and any unpaid accrued interest thereon to shares of MAGNITUDE common
stock  (hereinafter  referred to as ACommon  Shares@) at the conversion  rate of
$.50 per Common  Share at any time  prior to the  complete  satisfaction  of the
Obligation.  To exercise his said conversion right, SHAREHOLDER shall deliver to
MAGNITUDE a written notice thereof signed by SHAREHOLDER.

         4.  MAGNITUDE  shall  have the right to prepay the  Obligation  and any
accrued interest thereon subject to the following conditions:

                  (a)  MAGNITUDE   shall  only  be  permitted  to  exercise  its
prepayment  right by paying  the  entire  principal  outstanding  balance of and
accrued interest on the Obligation;



<PAGE>

                  (b)  MAGNITUDE   shall   exercise  its  right  to  prepay  the
Obligation  and any accrued  interest  thereon only upon thirty (30) days' prior
written  notice  to  SHAREHOLDER,   provided,  however,  it  has  completed  the
registration  of  the  Common  Shares  of  MAGNITUDE  as  required  pursuant  to
subparagraph (c) below and further provided that MAGNITUDE has not received from
SHAREHOLDER his written notice of election to convert as provided in Paragraph 3
above either  prior to  MAGNITUDE'S  sending of its written  notice to prepay or
MAGNITUDE's actual delivery of the prepayment to SHAREHOLDER; and

                  (c) MAGNITUDE shall register a sufficient number of its Common
Shares to accommodate any future exercise of the conversion  right identified in
Paragraph 3 above by SHAREHOLDER of the entire  Obligation  under the Securities
Act of 1933,  as amended  (the "1933 Act") at the time it files any  appropriate
registration  statement under the 1933 Act, i.e., Form S-3, Form SB-1, Form SB-2
or their respective successor registration forms, following the date hereof.

         5.  If  MAGNITUDE  at  any  time  undertakes  to  register  any  of its
securities  under the Act (other than in connection with a merger or pursuant to
Form S-8 or other comparable form), MAGNITUDE shall include in such registration
the shares of common stock  allocated for the possible  conversion  set forth in
Paragraph 4 above,  provided,  however, that if such registration is effected in
connection with an underwritten  offering and the managing  underwriter declines
to include such shares,  then,  MAGNITUDE shall be relieved of its obligation to
register such shares with respect to that particular offering.

         6. The Amended Merger Agreement and all other documents  executed under
or in relation to the Amended  Merger  Agreement  are not in any way affected by
this Third  Amendment,  except as  specifically  set forth  herein.  The parties
hereby ratify and reconfirm  the  enforceability  and legal effect of all of the
terms and provisions set forth in the Amended Merger Agreement,  the Put Option,
and the Security  Agreement and Financing  Statements  thereunder  not expressly
modified by this Third Amendment.

         7. MAGNITUDE shall promptly reimburse SHAREHOLDER for the amount of all
attorneys= fees and disbursements incurred by SHAREHOLDER relating to or arising
out of the negotiation and preparation of this Third Amendment.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Third Amendment
to be signed on the date and year first above written.

                                 March 13, 2000

VIA TELECOPY AND FIRST CLASS MAIL
PERSONAL AND CONFIDENTIAL
Mr. Gary J. Shemano
The Shemano Group
601 California Street
Suite 1850
San Francisco, California 94108

Dear Mr. Shemano:

         This will serve as the agreement  between The Shemano Group ("you") and
Magnitude  Information Systems,  Inc. ("MIS") pursuant to which MIS shall retain
you to provide  financial  advisory  services  to MIS in return for  agreed-upon
compensation, more particularly described below (the "Agreement").

         Our  Agreement is intended to supersede  any and all prior  agreements,
contracts and understandings,  written or oral, between you and MIS. We agree on
the following terms:

         1. Scope of Financial Advisory Services. We agree that you shall advise
and consult with MIS, its  officers,  directors and  consultants/advisors,  on a
non-exclusive  basis, to provide MIS and its shareholders with certain financial
advisory  services  in an effort  to  increase  MIS'  shareholder  value.  These
financial advisory services shall include the following:

                  A.       Identify  and  introduce to MIS  potential  strategic
                           business   partners  and  alliances  as  well  as  to
                           potential merger or acquisition candidates.

                  B.      Organize  and  assist  MIS  in  presentations  to  the
                          investment banking community,  fund/money managers and
                          to the broker-dealer community ("road shows").



                  C.  Identify  and  introduce   potential   institutional   and
accredited investors to MIS.

         The foregoing described services are sometimes collectively hereinafter
referred to as the "Financial Advisory Services".

         2. Compensation. In payment for your agreement to perform and render to
MIS the  Financial  Advisory  Services  during  the term  hereof,  MIS agrees to
compensate you by issuing to you a  nontransferable  warrant to purchase 200,000
shares  of MIS  Common  Stock at the  exercise  price of $2.00  per  share  (the
"Warrant"),  exercisable at any time, in whole or in part, during the three year
period  commencing  as of the date of this  Agreement.  A copy of the Warrant is
attached hereto as Exhibit A.


         3.  Compliance  with  Disclosure  Laws.  You agree to utilize your best
efforts to fully comply with all federal and state  securities  disclosure  laws
with  respect to all  activities  you  undertake  pursuant  to the terms of this
Agreement,  including but not limited to  disclosing  when required to any third
parties  the  nature  of  your  relationship  with  MIS and  the  amount  of any
compensation earned or to be earned under this Agreement. You agree to indemnify
MIS, its  officers,  directors,  employees,  consultants  and advisors  from and
against any liability of any nature  whatsoever that may arise out of any breach
of your  promises  made herein.  Conjunctively,  MIS  represents to you that its
Form10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998, its Forms 10-QSB for the
periods  ended March 31, 1999,  June 30, 1999 and September 30, 1999 MIS as well
as all other MIS issued public  information  through the date hereof,  discloses
all material  information  concerning MIS and its financial  condition as of the
applicable  dates and does not omit any  material  facts,  the  absence of which
would render such  documents  misleading  and agrees to  indemnify  you from and
against any liability of any nature whatsoever that may arise out of MIS' breach
of its representations made herein.

         4.  Restricted   Nature  of  Warrant  and  Underlying   Stock.  A.  You
acknowledge that the Warrant to be issued to you as compensation, as well as the
shares of Common  Stock  that  underlie  the  Warrant,  are  deemed  "restricted
securities" as that term is defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"). You agree, therefore that you will not
sell, offer to sell or transfer the Warrant or any of the shares of Common Stock
underlying  the  Warrant  (the   "Underlying   Shares")  except  pursuant  to  a
registration  statement  filed  pursuant  to the 1933 Act and  applicable  state
securities laws or pursuant to exemptions therefrom,  proved in such latter case
to the  reasonable  satisfaction  of MIS and its  counsel.  The Warrant and each
certificate  representing  any of the  Underlying  Shares shall bear a legend in
substantial form to the following:

         "The  Securities   represented  by  this   certificate  have  not  been
         registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended  ("Act").  Such
         securities  have been acquired for  investment  and may not be publicly
         offered  or  sold  in the  absence  of (1)  an  effective  registration
         statement for such securities  under the Act; (2) An opinion of counsel
         acceptable to the Company prior to any proposed  transfer to the effect
         that  registration  is not  required  under  the  Act;  or (3) a letter
         presented to the Company prior to any proposed transfer, from the staff
         of the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  to the effect that it will
         not recommend  any  enforcement  action in the event of the  described,
         proposed transfer without registration under the Act."

         B.  Registration  Rights.  Upon MIS'  determination,  exercised in good
faith,  that you have  rendered  the  Financial  Advisory  Services  under  this
Agreement  through the applicable date and, based upon such performance  through
the applicable date, MIS has a reasonable  expectation that you will continue to
perform such Financial Advisory Services  throughout the term of this Agreement,
MIS shall include the Underlying Shares in any registration statement it intends
to file under the 1933 Act after July 1,  2000,  pursuant  to which MIS seeks to
register  common  shares  either on its  behalf  or on  behalf of other  selling
shareholders,  at its sole cost and  expense,  subject,  if  applicable,  to the
consent of any lead underwriter.


         5.  Representations  as to Investment Intent. You represent to MIS that
you  are an  accredited  investor  as that  term  is  defined  in  Regulation  D
promulgated  under  the 1933 Act and that  you are  accepting  the  compensation
represented by the Warrant and the  Underlying  Shares for your own account with
no present intention to sell,  distribute or otherwise transfer such securities.
You  acknowledge  that  you  have  negotiated  in good  faith  with MIS for this
compensation and further acknowledge that MIS has made no representations to you
concerning the value or worth of the Warrant and the Underlying Shares.

         6. Term of  Agreement.  Except as may be expressly  set forth herein to
the contrary,  the term of this Agreement  shall be for a period of one (1) year
subject,  however,  to earlier  termination  by MIS on 30 days written notice to
you.

         7.       Confidentiality.  You agree , if you have not  already
done so,  to  execute  and  deliver  MIS'  Confidentiality Agreement and to
annex it as Exhibit B hereto.

         8.       Governing  Law. We agree that this  Agreement  shall be
governed by and construed in  accordance  with the laws of the State of
New Jersey.

         9.  Assignment/Miscellaneous.  Neither  you  nor  MIS  may  assign  any
obligation,  duty or right under this  Agreement  without  the  express  written
consent of the other party. This Agreement is for the benefit of you and MIS and
our respective  successors  alone.  Neither you nor MIS can modify or amend this
Agreement except pursuant to a written instrument signed by both parties.

         Please indicate your  acknowledgment  of and agreement to the foregoing
by signing your name where indicated  below. We look forward to working with you
and further developing a prosperous and mutually rewarding relationship.


                                Very Truly yours,

                                Magnitude Information Systems, Inc.

                                By:
                                Steven D. Rudnik
                                    President

Agreed to and accepted by:


Gary  J. Shemano, Individually,
and on behalf of The Shemano Group

                         _______ Shares of Common Stock

NEITHER THIS WARRANT NOR THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK  ISSUABLE  UPON  EXERCISE OF
THIS WARRANT HAVE BEEN REGISTERED  UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND NEITHER
THIS WARRANT NOR SUCH SHARES MAY BE SOLD,  ENCUMBERED  OR OTHERWISE  TRANSFERRED
EXCEPT  PURSUANT TO AN  EFFECTIVE  REGISTRATION  STATEMENT  UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN
EXEMPTION  FROM SUCH  REGISTRATION  REQUIREMENT,  AND, IF AN EXEMPTION  SHALL BE
APPLICABLE,  THE HOLDER SHALL HAVE DELIVERED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO
THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.

                          COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
                                       OF
                       MAGNITUDE INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INC.
                          f/k/a PROFORMIX SYSTEMS, INC.


This is to certify that, FOR VALUE RECEIVED, __________________.,  or registered
assigns ("Holder"),  is entitled to purchase,  subject to the provisions of this
Warrant,  from  Magnitude  Information  Systems,  Inc.,  a Delaware  corporation
("Company"),  ______ shares of the Company's  common stock, par value $.0001 per
share ("Common Stock"), at an exercise price per share of $5.00 U.S., subject to
adjustment as provided in this Warrant, at any time during the period commencing
on April 30, 1999 ("Commencement Date") and ending on April 30, 2003, ("Exercise
Period").  In the event that the last day of the Exercise  Period shall be a day
on which banking  institutions in the State of New York are authorized by law to
close for all or part of the day,  then the Exercise  Period shall expire on the
next  succeeding  day  which  shall not be such a day.  The  number of shares of
Common  Stock to be received  upon the exercise of this Warrant and the price to
be paid for a share of Common  Stock may also be  adjusted  from time to time as
hereinafter set forth.  The exercise price for the purchase of a share of Common
Stock  pursuant to this Warrant in effect at any time and as adjusted  from time
to time is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "Exercise Price".

         (a) Exercise of Warrant.  This Warrant may be exercised in whole at any
time or in part from time to time during the Exercise Period by presentation and
surrender  of this  Warrant to the Company at its  principal  office,  or at the
office of its stock  transfer  agent,  if any, with the Purchase Form annexed to
this Warrant duly executed and  accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price for
the number of shares of Common  Stock  specified  in such form.  If this Warrant
should be  exercised  in part only,  the Company  shall upon  surrender  of this
Warrant for  cancellation,  execute and  deliver a new  Warrant  evidencing  the
rights of the  Holder  hereof to  purchase  the  balance of the shares of Common
Stock purchasable hereunder.  Upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant at its
office,  or by the stock transfer agent of the Company at its office,  in proper
form for exercise,  accompanied  by payment of the Exercise Price of the Warrant
Shares with respect to which the Warrant is being exercised, the Holder shall be
deemed to be the holder of record of the shares of Common  Stock  issuable  upon
such  exercise,  notwithstanding  that the stock  transfer  books of the Company
shall then be closed or that  certificates  representing  such  shares of Common
Stock shall not then be  actually  delivered  to the  Holder.  In the event that
payment of the Exercise Price is made other than by wire transfer of funds or by
a certified or official bank check  acceptable to the Company,  the Holder shall
not be deemed to be the holder of the Warrant  Shares  until the proceeds of the
payment shall be collected by the Company.

         (b) Reservation of Shares.  The Company hereby agrees that at all times
  there shall be reserved for issuance  and/or  delivery  upon  exercise of this
  Warrant  such  number  of  shares of  Common  Stock as shall be  required  for
  issuance and delivery upon exercise of this Warrant.

           (c) Fractional  Shares. No fractional  shares or script  representing
  fractional  shares  shall be issued upon the  exercise of this  Warrant.  With
  respect  to any  fraction  of a share  called  for upon any  exercise  of this
  Warrant,  the Company  shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to such
  fraction multiplied by the current value of such fractional share,  determined
  as follows:

                    (1) If the Common  Stock is listed on a national  securities
  exchange or admitted to unlisted trading privileges on such exchange or listed
  for trading on The NASDAQ Stock  Market or other  automated  quotation  system
  which provides  information as to the last sale price, the current value shall
  be the reported  last sale price of one share of Common Stock on such exchange
  or  market on the last  business  day  prior to the date of  exercise  of this
  Warrant,  or if no such sale is made on such day,  the current  value shall be
  the average of the closing bid and asked prices for such day on such  exchange
  or system; or

                    (2) If the  Common  Stock is not so  listed or  admitted  to
  unlisted  trading  privileges,  the  current  value  shall  be the mean of the
  reported last bid and asked prices of one share of Common Stock as reported by
  NASDAQ or the  National  Quotation  Bureau,  Inc. or other  similar  reporting
  service selected by the Company's board of directors, on the last business day
  prior to the date of the exercise of this Warrant, or

                    (3) If the  Common  Stock is not so  listed or  admitted  to
  unlisted trading privileges and bid and asked prices are not so reported,  the
  current  value of one share of Common Stock shall be an amount,  not less than
  book value,  determined in such reasonable  manner as may be prescribed by the
  Board of Directors of the Company.

                    (d) Exchange, Transfer,  Assignment or Loss of Warrant. This
  Warrant is exchangeable,  without expense,  at the option of the Holder,  upon
  presentation and surrender hereof to the Company or at the office of its stock
  transfer  agent,  if  any,  for  other  Warrants  of  different  denominations
  entitling  the holder  thereof to purchase in the aggregate the same number of
  shares of Common Stock  purchasable  hereunder.  Subject to the  provisions of
  Paragraph (j) of this Warrant,  upon  surrender of this Warrant to the Company
  or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, with the Assignment Form
  annexed hereto duly executed and funds  sufficient to pay any transfer tax the
  Company shall,  without charge,  execute and deliver a new Warrant in the name
  of the assignee named in such  instrument of assignment and this Warrant shall
  promptly be  canceled.  This  Warrant  may be divided or  combined  with other
  Warrants which carry the same rights upon presentation hereof at the office of
  the Company or at the office of its stock  transfer  agent,  if any,  together
  with a written  notice  specifying  the names and  denominations  in which new
  Warrants are to be issued and signed by the Holder hereof.  The term "Warrant"
  as used herein includes any Warrants into which this Warrant may be divided or
  exchanged.  Upon receipt by the Company of evidence  satisfactory to it of the
  loss,  theft,  destruction  or  mutilation of this Warrant and (in the case of
  loss, theft or destruction) of reasonably  satisfactory  indemnification,  and
  upon surrender and  cancellation  of this Warrant,  if mutilated,  the Company
  will  execute and  deliver a new  Warrant of like tenor.  Any such new Warrant
  executed and delivered shall constitute an additional  contractual  obligation
  on the part of the  Company,  whether  or not this  Warrant  so lost,  stolen,
  destroyed, or mutilated shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.
           (e) Rights of the  Holder.  The Holder  shall not,  by virtue of this
  Warrant, be entitled to any rights of a stockholder in the Company,  either at
  law or equity,  and the rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed in
  the Warrant and are not  enforceable  against the Company except to the extent
  set forth in this Warrant.

           (f)    Anti-Dilution Provisions.
                  (1) The  Exercise  Price in effect at any time and the  number
  and kind of  securities  purchasable  upon  exercise of each Warrant  shall be
  subject to adjustment in case the Company shall, subsequent to the date hereof
  (A) pay a dividend  or make a  distribution  on its shares of Common  Stock in
  shares of Common Stock,  (B) subdivide or reclassify  its  outstanding  Common
  Stock  into a greater  number of shares,  or (C)  combine  or  reclassify  its
  outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or otherwise effect a
  reverse  split or (D) effect a  recapitalization  whereby  the  holders of the
  Common  Stock  receive in respect of or in  exchange  for such  shares  Holder
  securities  of the Company,  the  Exercise  Price in effect at the time of the
  record date for such dividend or distribution or of the effective date of such
  subdivision,  combination,   reclassification  or  recapitalization  shall  be
  proportionately  adjusted so that the Holder of this Warrant  exercised  after
  such date shall be entitled to receive the aggregate number and kind of shares
  and/or other securities which, if this Warrant had been exercised  immediately
  prior to such time,  he would have owned upon such  exercise and been entitled
  to receive upon such dividend,  subdivision,  combination or reclassification.
  Such adjustment shall be made  successively  whenever any event listed in this
  Paragraph  (f)(1)  shall  occur,  provided,  however,  that with  respect to a
  recapitalization  referred  to in clause  (D) of this  Paragraph  (f)(1),  the
  Exercise  Price  shall not be  adjusted,  and the Holder  shall be entitled to
  receive,  upon payment of the Exercise  Price per share,  such  securities  as
  would have been  represented by one share of Common Stock had the Warrant been
  exercised immediately prior to the record date relating to such transaction.

                (2) Whenever the Exercise  Price  payable upon  exercise of each
Warrant is adjusted pursuant to Paragraph (f)(1) of this Warrant,  the number of
shares  of  Common  Stock  purchasable  upon  exercise  of  each  Warrant  shall
simultaneously  be adjusted by multiplying  the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable  upon  exercise  of each  Warrant in effect on the date  thereof by the
Exercise  Price in  effect on the date  thereof  and  dividing  the  product  so
obtained by the  Exercise  Price,  as  adjusted.  In no event shall the Exercise
Price per share be less than the par value per share, and if any adjustment made
pursuant to said Paragraph (f)(1) would result in an exercise price of less than
the par value per share then, in such event,  the Exercise Price per share shall
be the par value per share.

                (3) No adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be required unless
such  adjustment  would  require an  increase or decrease of at least five cents
($0.05) in such price provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of
this Paragraph  (f)(3) are not required to be made shall be carried  forward and
taken into account in any subsequent  adjustment.  All  calculations  under this
Paragraph (f) shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest  one-hundredth
of a share,  as the case may be.  Anything in this Paragraph (f) to the contrary
notwithstanding,  the Company shall be entitled,  but shall not be required,  to
make such changes in the Exercise  Price,  in addition to those required by this
Paragraph (f) as it in its discretion  shall  determine to be advisable in order
than any dividend or  distribution  payable or distributed to the holders of its
Common  Stock shall not result in any tax to the holders of its Common  Stock or
securities convertible into Common Stock.

                (4)  The  Company  may  retain  a  firm  of  independent  public
accountants of recognized  standing  selected by the Board of Directors (who may
be the  regular  accountants  employed by the  Company) to make any  computation
required by this Paragraph  (f), and a certificate  signed by such firm shall be
conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment.

                (5) In the event that at any time,  as a result of an adjustment
made  pursuant to Paragraph  (f)(1) of this  Warrant,  the Holder of any Warrant
thereafter  shall become  entitled to receive any shares of the  Company,  other
than Common Stock, thereafter the number of such other shares so receivable upon
exercise of any Warrant  shall be subject to  adjustment  from time to time in a
manner and on terms as nearlv  equivalent as practicable to the provisions  with
respect to the Common Stock contained in Paragraph (f)(1) of this Warrant.

                (6) Irrespective of any adjustments in the Exercise Price or the
number  or kind of  shares  purchasable  upon  exercise  of  Warrants,  Warrants
theretofore  or  thereafter  issued may  continue  to express the same price and
number and kind of shares as are stated in this and similar  Warrants  initially
issued by the Company.

        (g) Officer's Certificate. Whenever the Exercise Price shall be adjusted
as required by the  provisions  of Paragraph  (f) of this  Warrant,  the Company
shall  forthwith file in the custody of its Secretary or an Assistant  Secretary
at its principal  office and with its stock transfer agent, if any, an officer's
certificate  showing the  adjusted  Exercise  Price and the  adjusted  number of
shares of Common Stock  issuable upon  exercise of each  Warrant,  determined as
herein  provided,  setting forth in reasonable  detail the facts  requiring such
adjustment,  including a statement of the number of additional  shares of Common
Stock, if any, and such other facts as shall be necessary to show the reason for
and the manner of computing such  adjustment.  Each such  officer's  certificate
shall be made  available at all  reasonable  times for inspection by the Holder,
and the Company  shall,  forthwith  after each such  adjustment,  mail, by first
class mail, a copy of such  certificate to the Holder or any such holder at such
holder's address set forth in the Company's Warrant Register.

           (h)  Notices to Warrant  Holders.  So long as this  Warrant  shall be
  outstanding (1) if the Company shall pay any dividend or make any distribution
  upon Common Stock (other than a regular cash dividend  payable out of retained
  earnings) or (2) if the Company shall offer to all holders of Common Stock for
  subscription or purchase by them any share of any class or any other rights or
  (3) if any capital  reorganization  of the  Company,  reclassification  of the
  capital stock of the Company,  consolidation  or merger of the Company with or
  into another corporation,  sale, lease or transfer of all or substantially all
  of the property and assets of the Company to another corporation, or voluntary
  or involuntary dissolution,  liquidation or winding up of the Company shall be
  effected,  then in any such  case,  the  Company  shall  cause to be mailed by
  certified  mail to the  Holder,  at  least  fifteen  days  prior  to the  date
  specified in clauses (i) and (ii), as the case may be, of this Paragraph (h) a
  notice  containing a brief  description of the proposed action and stating the
  date on which (i) a record is to be taken for the  purpose  of such  dividend,
  distribution  or  rights,  or  (ii)  such  reclassification,   reorganization,
  consolidation,  merger, conveyance, lease, dissolution, liquidation or winding
  up is to take  place  and the  date,  if any is to be  fixed,  as of which the
  holders  of  Common  Stock or other  securities  shall  receive  cash or other
  property    deliverable    upon   such    reclassification,    reorganization,
  consolidation, merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding up.

           (i)    Reclassification, Reorganization or Merger.

         (1)  Subject  to the  provisions  of  paragraph  (1),  in  case  of any
reclassification,  capital  reorganization or other change of outstanding shares
of Common Stock of the Company, or in case of any consolidation or merger of the
Company with or into another  corporation (other than a merger with a subsidiary
in which  merger the Company is the  continuing  corporation  and which does not
result  in any  reclassification,  capital  reorganization  or other  change  of
outstanding  shares of Common Stock of the class  issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant) or in case of any sale,  lease or conveyance to another  corporation of
the property of the Company as an entirety,  the Company  shall,  as a condition
precedent to such transaction, cause effective provisions to be made so that the
Holder shall have the right  thereafter by exercising this Warrant,  to purchase
the kind and  amount  of  shares of stock  and  other  securities  and  property
receivable upon such reclassification,  capital reorganization and other change,
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of the number of shares of
Common  Stock  which might have been  purchased  upon  exercise of this  Warrant
immediately prior to such reclassification,  change, consolidation, merger, sale
or conveyance.  Any such provision shall include provision for adjustments which
shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments  provided
for in this  Warrant.  The  foregoing  provisions  of this  Paragraph  (i) shall
similarly  apply to successive  reclassification,  capital  reorganizations  and
changes of shares of Common  Stock and to  successive  consolidations,  mergers,
sales or  conveyances.  In the event that in  connection  with any such  capital
reorganization or reclassification,  consolidation,  merger, sale or conveyance,
additional shares


<PAGE>



         of Common Stock shall be issued in exchange,  conversion,  substitution
or payment, in whole or in part, for a security of the Company other than Common
Stock,  any such issue shall be created as an issue of Common  Stock  covered by
the provisions of Paragraph (f)of this Warrant.

                  (2) Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph (i)(1) of this
Warrant, in the event that, as a result of any merger,  consolidation or similar
transaction,  all of the holders of Common  Stock  receive  and are  entitled to
receive no  consideration  other than cash in respect of their  shares of Common
Stock,  then, at the effective time of the  transaction,  the rights to purchase
Common Stock  pursuant to the Warrants shall  terminate,  and the holders of the
Warrants shall, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Warrant, receive in
respect  of each  Warrant  to  purchase  one (1)  share of  Common  Stock,  upon
presentation of the Warrant the amount,  if any, by which the  consideration per
share of Common Stock  payable to the holders of Common Stock at such  effective
time exceeds the Exercise Price in effect on such effective date, without giving
effect to the transaction,  in the event that, subsequent to the effective time,
additional cash or other consideration is payable to the holders of Common Stock
of record as of the effective time, the same  consideration  shall be payable to
the holders of the  Warrants to the extent that the total cash then  received by
the  holders  of  Common  Stock  exceeds  the  Exercise  Price in effect at such
effective date,  without giving effect to the transaction,  with the same effect
as if the Warrants had been exercised on and as of such  effective  time. If the
Exercise  Price per share  shall  exceed the total  consideration  payable  with
respect to one (1) share of Common Stock,  then this Warrant shall terminate and
cease to be  exercisable.  In the event of any  merger,  consolidation,  sale or
lease of substantially all of the Company's assets or reorganization whereby the
Company is not the surviving  corporation in lieu of the provisions of Paragraph
(i)(1) of this Warrant, the Company may provide in the agreement relating to the
transaction  that each Warrant shall become,  be converted  into or be exchanged
for, such  securities of the surviving or acquiring  corporation or other entity
as has a value equal to the value of the  Warrants,  securities  being issued in
exchange  therefor,  to be determined by the Company's Board of Directors,  such
determination to be final, binding and conclusive on the Company and the holders
of the Warrants

        (j) Transfer to Comply with the Securities Act of 1933.  This Warrant or
the Warrant  Shares or any other  security  issued or issuable  upon exercise of
this Warrant may not be sold or otherwise disposed of except as follows:

                (1) To a person who, in the opinion of counsel for the  Company,
is a person to whom this  Warrant or Warrant  Shares may legally be  transferred
without  registration and without the delivery of a current prospectus under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities  Act"), with respect thereto
and then only against  receipt of an agreement of such person to comply with the
provisions of this Paragraph (j) with respect to any resale or other disposition
of such securities,  which agreement shall be satisfactory in form and substance
to the Company and its counsel and an opinion of counsel for the  transferor  as
to the  availability of an exemption from the  registration  requirements of the
Securities  Act, such counsel and opinion to be acceptable in form and substance
to the Company and its counsel or

                  (2) to any person upon  delivery of a prospectus  then meeting
the  requirements  of the  Securities  Act relating to such  securities  and the
offering thereof for such sale or disposition.

                          COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

               For the Purchase of 200,000 Shares of Common Stock

                                       of

                       MAGNITUDE INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INC.
                            (A Delaware Corporation)

     THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received Gary J. Shemano,  having an address
c/o The  Shemano  Group,  601  California  Street.  Suite 1850,  San  Francisco,
California 94108 (the "Holder"), as owner of this Warrant (sometimes referred to
herein as "Warrant"), is entitled to subscribe for, purchase and receive 200,000
fully paid and  nonassessable  shares of common stock (the "Common  Stock"),  of
Magnitude  Information Systems,  Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company") at
the price of $2.00 (U.S.) per share of Common Stock (the "Exercise Price"), upon
payment of the Exercise Price in accordance  with the  provisions  hereof at the
principal office of the Company.  If the subscription  rights represented hereby
shall not be  exercised on or before the  Expiration  Date,  this Warrant  shall
become  and  will be void  without  further  force  or  effect,  and all  rights
represented hereby shall cease and expire.

         This  Warrant  may be  exercised  subject  to the  following  terms and
conditions.

         (i)      Terms of Warrant.

                  Holder  shall be  entitled to  purchase  and  receive  200,000
shares of Common Stock at the Exercise  Price at any time on or before 5:00 p.m.
Eastern Standard Time on March 15, 2003 (the "Expiration  Date"),  by paying the
Exercise  Price to the  Company.  Any  notices  required  hereunder  shall be in
writing and may be  delivered  via U.S.  Postal  Service,  personally  or by any
commercial  delivery  or  overnight  service  to the  Holder or  Company  at the
respective   addresses  set  forth  herein  for  the  same.  Any  attempted  but
undelivered  notice  sent via any  method  and for  which a proof  of  attempted
delivery therefor is issued and left at the appropriate  address shall be deemed
to be effective delivery.

         (ii)     Exercise of Warrant.

                  This  Warrant  may  be  exercised  in  whole  or in  part,  in
increments  to purchase no less than 50,000  shares of Common  Stock  during the
Exercise Period by surrendering the exercise form attached hereto (the "Exercise
Form") duly executed by the Holder, to the Company at its principal office at 50
Tannery Road, Suite 8, Branchburg,  New Jersey 08876 or at such other address as
may be  designated  by the Company,  and by  simultaneously  paying the Exercise
Price in cash or check to the Company. The date of exercise shall be the date on
which  the  completed  Exercise  Form and  Exercise  Price are  tendered  to the
Company.
         (iii) Restricted Nature of  Warrant and Underlying Stock.

         This Warrant and the shares of Common Stock that  underlie this Warrant
are  deemed  "restricted  securities"  as that  term  is  defined  in  Rule  144
promulgated  under the Securities  Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act").  No
sale,  offer to sell or transfer of this  Warrant or any of the shares of Common
Stock  underlying  this  Warrant  (the  "Underlying  Shares") may be made except
pursuant  to a  registration  statement  filed  pursuant  to the  1933  Act  and
applicable State  Securities Laws or pursuant to exemptions  therefrom proved in
such latter case to the reasonable  satisfaction of the Company and its counsel.
This Warrant and each  certificate  representing  any of the  Underlying  Shares
shall bear a legend in substantial form to the following:

         "The  Securities   represented  by  this   certificate  have  not  been
         registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended  ("Act").  Such
         securities  have been acquired for  investment  and may not be publicly
         offered  or  sold  in the  absence  of (1)  an  effective  registration
         statement for such securities  under the Act; (2) An opinion of counsel
         acceptable to the Company prior to any proposed  transfer to the effect
         that  registration  is not  required  under  the  Act;  or (3) a letter
         presented to the Company prior to any proposed transfer, from the staff
         of the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  to the effect that it will
         not recommend  any  enforcement  action in the event of the  described,
         proposed transfer without registration under the Act."

         (iv)     Disposition of Warrant or Underlying Shares.

         The Holder, by acceptance hereof, agrees that this Warrant shall not be
assignable or transferable in whole or in part by Holder under any circumstances
and that any  attempted  assignment  or transfer  shall  immediately  cause this
Warrant to expire and be  rendered  null and void.  In the event of the death of
the Holder,  all of the rights and  obligations  set forth in this Warrant shall
automatically,  by operation of law, be  transferred  to the Holder's  estate or
personal representative, as the case may be.

         (v)  Registration  Rights.  The  Company  hereby  agrees to include the
Underlying  Shares in any registration  statement it may file under the 1933 Act
at any time following the date hereof , at its sole cost and expense, seeking to
register  common  shares on its  behalf or on  behalf of  selling  shareholders,
subject, if applicable, to the consent of the lead underwriter.

         (vi)     No Redemption. This Warrant shall not be called or redeemed
by the Company at any time.

         (vii) Loss,  Theft,  Destruction  or  Mutilation.  Upon  receipt by the
Company  of  evidence  satisfactory  to it (in the  exercise  of its  reasonable
discretion) of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction,  or mutilation
of this Warrant,  the Company will execute and deliver,  in lieu thereof,  a new
Warrant of like tenor.

         (viii) Warrant Holder Not a Shareholder. The Holder of this Warrant, as
such, shall not be entitled by reason of any term or provision set forth in this
Warrant to any rights whatsoever as a shareholder of the Company.
         (ix)  Taxes.  The  Company  will pay all  document  and stamp  taxes in
connection  with the issuance of this  Warrant or the Common  Shares that may be
issued upon exercise hereof.

         (x)  Miscellaneous.  References  herein describing this instrument as a
"Warrant" or "Warrants", refer solely to the rights conferred upon the Holder.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant to be signed by
a duly authorized officer as of the date set forth below

Ladies and Gentlemen::

         I have acted as counsel for  Magnitude  Information  Systems,  Inc.,  a
Delaware  corporation  ("Magnitude"),  in connection  with the  preparation of a
Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") to be filed by
Magnitude  with  the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  (the  "Commission')
pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act").  The Registration  Statement
relates to up to 19,482,086  shares (the  "Shares") of common  stock,  par value
$.0001 per share (the "Common Stock").

         I  have  examined  such  corporate  records,   certificates  and  other
documents as I have considered necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this
opinion.  In such examination,  I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures
and the  authenticity of all documents  submitted to me as copies.  In examining
agreements  executed by parties other than  Magnitude,  I have assumed that such
parties  had the  power,  corporate  or other,  to enter  into and  perform  all
obligations  thereunder  and also  have  assumed  the due  authorization  by all
requisite action, corporate or other, and execution and delivery by such parties
of such documents,  and the validity and binding effect thereof. As to any facts
material to the opinion expressed herein which I have not independently verified
or established,  I have relied upon statements and  representations  of officers
and representatives of Magnitude and others.

         Based on such  examination,  I am of the  opinion  that the Shares have
been duly  authorized  for  issuance  and are  validly  issued,  fully  paid and
non-assessable.

         I hereby  consent to the inclusion of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration  Statement  and to the  reference  to me and  this  opinion  in the
prospectus that forms a part of the Registration Statement.

                                                       Very truly yours,

                                                       /s/ Joseph J. Tomasek
