        B. The Company and Purchaser now seek to amend the Agreement to increase
the total amount of Convertible Debentures which Purchaser agrees to purchase
thereunder.

        NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is
hereby acknowledged, and in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth
herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

        1. DEFINITIONS. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used

        2. AMENDMENT TO CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE PURCHASE AGREEMENT. Section 1.1(a)
of the Convertible Debenture Purchase Agreement is hereby amended to provide
that Purchaser agrees to purchase, and the Company agrees to issue and sell, an
aggregate of $11,380,000 in principal amount of Convertible Debentures.

        3. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT. The Convertible Debenture Purchase
Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, constitutes the full and complete

matter of the Convertible Debenture Purchase Agreement and shall supersede all
prior communications, representations, understandings or agreements, if any,
whether oral or written, concerning the subject matter contained in the
Convertible Debenture Purchase Agreement, as so amended, and that no provision
of the Convertible Debenture Purchase Agreement, as so amended, may be modified,
amended, waived or discharged, in whole or in part, except in accordance with
its terms.
