commitments of any nature) or other agreement, or subject to any judgment,
decree, or order of any court or administrative agency, that would interfere
with the use of his or her reasonable diligence to promote the interests of the
Company or any Subsidiary or that would conflict with the Company's or the
Subsidiary's businesses as presently conducted or contemplated to be conducted.
Neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement, nor the
carrying on of the Company's or the Subsidiaries' businesses by the employees,
contractors or agents of the Company or the Subsidiaries, nor the conduct of the
Company's and the Subsidiaries' businesses as presently conducted or
contemplated to be conducted, will conflict with or result in a breach of the
terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract,
covenant, or instrument under which any such key employee, contractors or agents
is obligated, and which conflict, breach or default would be materially adverse
to the Company or any Subsidiary.

              (e) The Company has entered into written agreements with all key
employees, contractors or agents of the Company and each Subsidiary with
provisions seeking to protect the confidentiality of all Company Intellectual

"work for hire" language. The Company, without an independent investigation, is

(i) by employees of the Company or any Subsidiary within the scope of their
employment; or (ii) by independent contractors who have assigned all of their
rights to the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to written agreement.

              (f) No stockholder, member, director, officer, employee,
contractors or agents of the Company or any Subsidiary has any interest in any
of the Company Intellectual Property.

              (g) The consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will
not result in the loss or impairment of the Company's or any Subsidiary's rights
to own, use, or to bring any action for the infringement of, any of the Company
Intellectual Property, nor will such consummation require the consent of any
third party in respect of any Company Intellectual Property.

              (h) Except as set forth in Schedule 5.12(h), neither the Company
nor any Subsidiary:

                  (i) has granted to any third party any exclusive rights of any
kind (including, without limitation, exclusivity with regard to categories of
advertisers on any World Wide Web site, territorial exclusivity or exclusivity
with respect to particular versions, implementations or translations of any of
the Company Intellectual Property), nor has the Company or any Subsidiary
granted any third party any right to market any of the Company Intellectual
Property under any private label or "OEM" arrangements;

                  (ii) has any material outstanding sales or advertising
contract, commitment or proposal (including, without limitation, insertion
orders, slotting agreements or other agreements under which the Company or any
Subsidiary has allowed third parties to advertise on or otherwise be included in
a World Wide Web site) that the Company currently expects to result in any loss
to the Company upon completion or performance thereof;

                  (iii) has any material oral contracts or arrangements for the
sale of advertising or any other product or service.

respect thereof, in such a manner as to require registration under the
Securities Act. No holder of any of the Company's capital stock has any
rescission or pre-emptive rights.

         5.18 No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company, nor any of its
Affiliates or any other Person acting on the Company's behalf, has directly or

excess of $50,000 individually that are not reflected on the Financial
Statements of those entities that became Subsidiaries of the Company after the

Subsidiary, threatened against or affecting the Company, any Subsidiary, or
their respective properties or their respective directors or officers in their
capacities as such. To the knowledge of the Company, there are no facts which,
if known by a potential claimant or governmental authority, could reasonably be
expected to give rise to a claim or proceeding which, if asserted or conducted
with results unfavorable to the Company or any Subsidiary, could have a Material
Adverse Effect or could prevent or materially delay the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is
subject to any outstanding order, ruling, judgment or decree that would have a
Material Adverse Effect or could prevent or materially delay the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby.

         5.22 Compliance with Laws. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has

be due on such returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested
in good faith and for which adequate reserves have been made, and has set aside
on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all taxes for
periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations

                                       17


<PAGE>



taxes claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the
officers of the Company know of no basis for any such claim. Neither the Company
or any Subsidiary has executed a waiver with respect to any statute of

Company or the Subsidiaries including, but not limited to, "employee benefit
plans" within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA (the "Employee Benefit

collectively bargained for or have terms requiring assumption or any guarantee
by the Purchaser.

              (b) There have been no violations of ERISA or the Code that could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect relating to any

reports (including IRS Form 5500) for each such Employee Benefit Plan with all
applicable governmental authorities and has timely furnished all required
documents to the participants or beneficiaries of each such Employee Benefit
Plans.

              (c) The Company and its Subsidiaries have entered into
individualized written employment agreements with its officers and key employees
of the Company and its Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 5.24, true and complete
copies of which have been delivered to Purchaser. To the knowledge of the
Company, no employee of or consultant to the Company or any Subsidiary is in
violation of any term of any employment contract or any other contract or
agreement relating to the relationship of any such employee or consultant with
the Company or any Subsidiary. The Company and each Subsidiary have operated and
administered all plans, programs and arrangements providing compensation and
benefits to employees in accordance with their terms and with all applicable
laws. To the Company's knowledge, no key employee has any plans to terminate his
or her employment with the Company or any Subsidiary, nor does the Company or
any Subsidiary have any present intention to terminate the employment of any key
employee.

              (d) The Company and its Subsidiaries are not delinquent in

<PAGE>



amounts required to be reimbursed to them to the date hereof. The Company and
its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local
laws, rules and regulations respecting employment, employment practices, labor,
terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except for either
immaterial instances of noncompliance or instances of noncompliance of which the
Company is unaware which may be reasonably cured without the incurrence by the
Company or the Subsidiary of any material cost or liability. Neither the Company
nor any Subsidiary is bound by or subject to (and none of its assets or
properties is bound by or subject to) any written or oral, express or implied,
commitment or arrangement with any labor union, and, to the knowledge of the
Company, no labor union has requested or has sought to represent any of the
employees, representatives or agents of the Company or any Subsidiary. There is
no labor strike, dispute, slowdown or stoppage actually pending or, to the
knowledge of the Company, threatened against or involving the Company or any
Subsidiary. There are no suits, actions, disputes, claims (other than routine
claims for benefits), investigations or audits pending or, to the knowledge of
the Company, threatened in connection with any Employee Benefit Plan, but
excluding any of the foregoing which would not have a Material Adverse Effect on
the Company or any Subsidiary.

              (e) No director or officer or other employee of the Company or any
Subsidiary will become entitled to any retirement, severance or similar benefit
or enhanced or accelerated benefit (including any acceleration of vesting or
lapse of repurchase rights or obligations with respect to any Employee Benefit
Plan) solely as a result of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement; and
(ii) no payment made or to be made to any current or former employee of director
of the Company or any of its Affiliates by reason of the transactions
contemplated hereby (whether alone or in connection with any other event,
including, but not limited to, a termination of employment) will constitute an
"excess parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code.

         5.25 Acknowledgment Regarding Securities. The Company acknowledges that
its obligation to issue Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Series B
Preferred Shares, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the
Certificate of Designation, is absolute and unconditional, regardless of the
dilution that such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other
stockholders of the Company. Taking the foregoing into account, the Company's
Board of Directors has determined in its good faith business judgment that the
issuance of the Securities hereunder and the consummation of the other
transactions contemplated hereby are (a) in the best interests of the Company
and its stockholders and (b) do not breach (with or without the passage of time
or the giving of notice) any obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary the
result of which would have a Material Adverse


                                       19


<PAGE>



Effect. The Company's Board of Directors has approved the terms of this
Agreement and the Certificate of Designation and the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby. Schedule 5.25 sets forth any adjustments, Encumbrances or
rights that would be triggered by the issuance of the Securities pursuant to
agreements between the Company or any Subsidiary and any lender or holder of an
equity interest or other securities of the Company or any Subsidiary.

         5.26 Brokers. There is no investment banker, broker, finder, financial

relating to or arising out of any Environmental Law, and there is no existing
condition, situation or set of circumstances which could reasonably be expected
to result in such a liability.

              (b) For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Environmental Laws"
means federal, state, local and foreign statutes, laws, judicial decisions,
regulations, ordinances, rules, judgments, orders, codes, injunctions, permits
and governmental agreements relating to human health and the environment,
including, but not limited to, Hazardous Materials; and the term "Hazardous

                      SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
                                       OF
                                 eUNIVERSE, INC.

                  (Pursuant to Sections 78.035, 78.195, 78.196
                         of the Nevada Revised Statutes)

         eUniverse, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), hereby certifies
that the following resolution was adopted by the Board of Directors of the
Company:

         RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority expressly granted to and
vested in the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board of Directors") by
the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation of the Company (the "Articles of
Incorporation"), there is hereby created, out of the 40,000,000 shares of
preferred stock, par value $.10 per share, of the Company authorized in Article
Fourth of the Articles of Incorporation (the "Preferred Stock"), a series of the
Preferred Stock consisting of 4,098,335 shares, which series shall have the
following powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating,
optional or other rights, and the following qualifications, limitations and
restrictions (in addition to any powers, designations, preferences and relative,
participating, optional or other rights, and any qualifications, limitations and
restrictions, set forth in the Articles of Incorporation which are applicable to
the Preferred Stock):

Section 1. Designation of Amount.

         The shares of Preferred Stock created hereby shall be designated the
"Series B Convertible Preferred Stock" (the "Series B Preferred Stock") and the
authorized number of shares constituting such series shall be 4,098,335. The
Series B Preferred Stock shall rank senior to the Series A 6% Convertible
Preferred Stock as to dividends, distributions or as to distributions of assets
upon liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary
or involuntary.

Section 2. Dividends.

          (a) The holders of the then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred
Stock will be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of
Directors out of funds of the Company legally available therefor, non-cumulative
cash dividends,


                                       1



<PAGE>


accruing on a daily basis from the Original Issuance Date (as hereinafter
defined) through and including the date on which such dividends are paid at the
annual rate of 8% (the "Applicable Rate") of the Liquidation Preference (as
hereinafter defined) per share of the Series B Preferred Stock. The term
"Original Issuance Date" means July__, 2001. The cash dividends provided for in
this Section 2(a) are hereinafter referred to as "Base Dividends."

         (b) In addition to Base Dividends, in the event any dividends are
declared or paid or any other distribution is made on or with respect to the
common stock, par value $.001 per share ("Common Stock"), the holders of the
Series B Preferred Stock as of the record date established by the Board of
Directors for such dividend or distribution on the Common Stock shall be
entitled to receive as additional dividends (the "Additional Dividends") an
amount (whether in the form of cash, securities or other property) equal to the
amount (and in the form) of the dividends or distribution that such holder would
have received had the Series B Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock
as of the date immediately prior to the record date of such dividend or
distribution on the Common Stock, such Additional Dividends to be payable on the
same payment date as the payment date for the dividend on the Common Stock
established by the Board of Directors (the "Additional Dividend Payment Date");
provided, however, that if the Company declares and pays a dividend or makes a
distribution on the Common Stock consisting in whole or in part of Common Stock,
then no such dividend or distribution shall be payable in respect of the Series
B Preferred Stock on account of the portion of such dividend or distribution on
the Common Stock payable in Common Stock and in lieu thereof the anti-dilution
adjustment in Section 5(e) below shall apply. The record date for any such
Additional Dividends shall be the record date for the applicable dividend or
distribution on the Common Stock, and any such Additional Dividends shall be
payable to the individual, entity or group (a "Person") in whose name the Series
B Preferred Stock is registered at the close of business on the applicable
record date.

         (c) No dividend shall be paid or declared on any share of Common Stock
(other than dividends payable in Common Stock for which an adjustment is made
pursuant to Section 5(e)(iv) hereof), unless a dividend, payable in the same
consideration and manner, is simultaneously paid or declared, as the case may
be, on each share of Series B Preferred Stock in an amount determined as set
forth in paragraph (b) above. For purposes hereof, the term "dividends" shall
include any pro rata distribution by the Company, out of funds of the Company
legally available therefor, of cash, property, securities (including, but not
limited to, rights, warrants or options) or other property or assets to the
holders of the Common Stock, whether or not paid out of capital, surplus or
earnings.


                                       2


<PAGE>


         (d) Prior to declaring any dividend or making any distribution on or
with respect to shares of Common Stock, the Company shall take all prior
corporate action necessary to authorize the issuance of any securities payable
as a dividend in respect of the Series B Preferred Stock.

Section 3. Liquidation Preference.

         In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
Company, whether voluntary or involuntary (a "Liquidation"), the holders of the
Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to receive out of
the available assets of the Company, whether such assets are stated capital or
surplus of any nature, an amount on such date equal to $[insert original per
share purchase price] per share of Series B Preferred Stock plus the amount of
any accrued and unpaid Base Dividends as of such date, calculated pursuant to
Section 2 and any declared but unpaid Additional Dividends as of such date
(collectively, the "Liquidation Preference"). Such payment shall be made before
any payment shall be made or any assets distributed to the holders of any class
or series of the Common Stock, the holders of the Series A 6% Convertible
Preferred Stock or any other class or series of the Company's capital stock
ranking junior as to liquidation rights to the Series B Preferred Stock. After
the Liquidation Preference has been paid in full pursuant to this Section 3, the
holders of the Series A 6% Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to
receive their liquidation preference as set forth in the First Amendment to the
Certificate of Designation of the Series A 6% Convertible Preferred Stock.
Following payment, first, to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock of the
full preferential amounts described in the first sentence of this Section 3 and,
second, to the holders of the Series A 6% Convertible Preferred Stock of the
full preferential amounts described in the First Amendment to the Certificate of
Designation of the Series A 6% Convertible Preferred Stock, the remaining assets
(if any) of the Company available for distribution to stockholders of the
Company shall be distributed, subject to the rights of the holders of shares of
any other series of Preferred Stock ranking prior to the Common Stock as to
distributions upon Liquidation, pro rata among (i) the holders of the then
outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock (as if the Series B Preferred
Stock had been converted into Common Stock as of the date immediately prior to
the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
distribution) and (ii) the holders of the Common Stock and any other shares of
capital stock of the Company ranking on a parity with the Common Stock as to
distributions upon Liquidation. If upon any Liquidation the assets available for
payment of the Liquidation Preference are insufficient to permit the payment to
the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock of the full preferential amounts
described in this paragraph, then all the remaining available assets shall be
distributed among the holders of the then outstanding Series B Preferred Stock
pro


                                       3


<PAGE>


rata according to the number of then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred
Stock held by each holder thereof. A Corporate Transaction (as hereinafter
defined), shall at the election of the holders of a majority of the Series B
Preferred Stock outstanding at the time constitute a Liquidation for purposes of
this Section 3, other than an Excluded Corporate Transaction.

Section 4. Voting Rights.

         (a) Except as otherwise provided by applicable law and in addition to
any voting rights provided by law, the holders of outstanding shares of the
Series B Preferred Stock:

               (i) shall be entitled to vote together with the holders of the
            Common Stock as a single class on all matters submitted for a vote
            of holders of Common Stock;

               (ii) shall have such other voting rights as are specified in the
            Articles of Incorporation or as otherwise provided by Nevada law;
            and

               (iii) shall be entitled to receive notice of any stockholders'
            meeting in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation and By-laws
            of the Company.

         For purposes of the voting rights set forth in this Section 4(a), each
share of Series B Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to cast one
vote for each whole vote that such holder would be entitled to cast had such
holder converted its Series B Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock as of
the date immediately prior to the record date for determining the stockholders
of the Company eligible to vote on any such matter.

         (b) The holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the exclusive
right, voting separately as a single class, to elect the following number of
members of the Board of Directors: one (1) member in the event the Board of
Directors consists of one (1) to five (5) members; two (2) members in the event
the Board of Directors consists of six (6) to eight (8) members; and three (3)
members in the event the Board of Directors consists of nine (9) to eleven (11)
members (each such member elected by the Series B Preferred Stockholders, a
"Preferred Stock Director"). Except as permitted by Section 4(c) below in no
event shall the total number of members of the Board of Directors exceed eleven
(11). In any such election the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall be
entitled to cast one vote per share of Series B Preferred Stock held of record
on the record date for the determination of



                                       4


<PAGE>


the holders of Series B Preferred Stock entitled to vote on such election. The
initial Preferred Stock Directors shall be ________ and are elected to serve
until their successors are duly elected; and thereafter the Preferred Stock
Directors shall be elected at the same time as other members of the Board of
Directors. A Preferred Stock Director may only be removed by the written consent
or affirmative vote of at least a majority of the Series B Preferred Stock. If
for any reason a Preferred Stock Director shall resign or otherwise be removed
from the Board of Directors, then his or her replacement shall be a person
elected by the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, in accordance with the
voting procedures set forth in this Section 4(b). The Preferred Stock Directors
shall be appointed by the Board of Directors to serve on each committee of the
Board of Directors at least in the same proportions that the number of Preferred
Stock Directors bears to the total number of directors then comprising the
entire Board of Directors.

         (c) So long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock remain
outstanding, the Company shall not, without the written consent or affirmative
vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Series B
Preferred Stock, (i) amend, alter, waive or repeal, whether by merger,
consolidation, combination, reclassification or otherwise, the Articles of
Incorporation, including this Certificate of Designation, or By-laws of the
Company or any provisions thereof (including the adoption of a new provision
thereof), (ii) create, authorize or issue any class, series or shares of
Preferred Stock or any other class of capital stock ranking either as to payment
of dividends, distributions or as to distributions of assets upon Liquidation
(x) prior to the Series B Preferred Stock, or (y) on a parity with the Series B
Preferred Stock or (iii) increase the size of the Board or Directors beyond
eleven (11) members. The vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the
outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, voting separately as one class,
shall be necessary to adopt any alteration, amendment or repeal of any provision
of this Resolution, in addition to any other vote of stockholders required by
law.

         (d) So long as 550 Digital Media Ventures Inc. or any of its affiliates
owns at least [75% of original purchase - to filled in at filing] shares of
Series B Preferred Stock or Common Stock (as appropriately adjusted for any
stock split, combination, reorganization, reclassification, stock dividend,
stock distribution or similar event), the Company shall not, without the written
consent or affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the Board of Directors (i)
enter into an agreement to, or consummate, a Corporate Transaction, (ii) enter
into transactions which result in or require the Company to issue shares of its
capital stock in excess of 5% (in any one transaction) or 12.5% (in the
aggregate, in a series of transactions commencing on or after the Original
Issuance Date) of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of capital stock,
(iii) enter into transactions which result in or require the Company to



                                       5



<PAGE>


pay (whether in cash, stock or a combination thereof) in excess of 5% (in any
one transaction) or 12.5% (in the aggregate, in a series of transactions
commencing on or after the Original Issuance Date) of the Company's then-current
market capitalization, (iv) increase or decrease the number of authorized shares
of capital stock, (v) directly or indirectly declare or pay any dividend or make
any other distribution in respect thereof, or directly or indirectly purchase,
redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire any shares of capital stock of the
Company or any subsidiary, whether in cash or property or in obligations of the
Company or any subsidiary, other than repurchases pursuant to an employee's
employment or incentive agreement and upon an employee's termination and at a
price not to exceed such employee's cost, (vi) increase or decrease the size of
the Company's Board of Directors; provided that in no event shall the total
number of members of the Board of Directors exceed (11).

Section 5. Conversion Rights.

         (a) General. Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this
Section 5, the holders of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be
entitled, at their option, at any time to convert all or any such shares of
Series B Preferred Stock into a number of fully paid and non-assessable shares
(calculated as to each conversion to the nearest 1/100,000th of a share) of
Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock to which a holder of Series B
Preferred Stock shall be entitled upon conversion shall be determined by
dividing (x) the Liquidation Preference of such Series B Preferred Stock as of
the Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined) by (y) the Conversion Price in
effect at the close of business on the Conversion Date (determined as provided
in this Section 5).

         (b) Automatic Conversion. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall
automatically convert, immediately upon the earlier of (1) the written consent
of holders of more than 50% of issued and outstanding Series B Preferred Stock,
and (2) the Company Election (each, an "Automatic Conversion Date") into fully
paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock. The number of shares of Common
Stock (calculated as to each conversion to the nearest 1/100,000th of a share)
to which a holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled upon such
automatic conversion shall be determined by dividing (x) the Liquidation
Preference of such Series B Preferred Stock as of the Automatic Conversion Date
by (y) the Conversion Price in effect at the close of business on the Business
Day immediately preceding such closing date. Such conversion shall occur
automatically and without any further action by the holders of such shares and
whether or not the certificates representing such



                                       6



<PAGE>


shares are surrendered to the Company or its transfer agent. Upon the occurrence
of such automatic conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, the holders of
Series B Preferred Stock shall surrender the certificates representing such
shares at the office of the Company or any transfer agent for the Series B
Preferred Stock. Thereupon, there shall be issued and delivered to such holder
promptly at such office and in its name as shown on such surrendered certificate
or certificates, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of
Common Stock into which the shares of Series B Preferred Stock surrendered were
convertible on the date on which such automatic conversion occurred.

         (c) Conversion Price. The conversion price (the "Conversion Price")
shall initially be $[_____], subject to adjustment from time to time in
accordance with Section 5(e).

         (d) Fractions of Shares. Unless the holder of shares of Series B
Preferred Stock being converted specifies otherwise, the Company shall issue
fractional shares of Common Stock (carried out to seven decimal places) upon
conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock. If more than one share of
Series B Preferred Stock shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the
same holder, the number of full shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be
computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of Series B Preferred
Stock so surrendered. Instead of any fractional shares of Common Stock which
would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of any shares of Series B Preferred
Stock, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fractional
share in an amount equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Fair
Market Value (as hereinafter defined) of one share of Common Stock on the
Conversion Date.

         (e) Adjustments to Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall be
subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

                 (i) Upon Issuance of Common Stock. If the Company shall, at any
           time or from time to time after the Original Issuance Date, issue any
           shares of Common Stock (other than an issuance of Common Stock as a
           dividend or in a split of or subdivision in respect of which the
           adjustment provided for in Section 5(e)(iv) applies), options to
           purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their
           terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options
           to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or
           exchangeable securities (other than Excluded Stock (as defined
           below)) without consideration or for consideration per share less
           than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such
           issuance, then such Conversion Price shall forthwith be lowered to a
           price equal to the price obtained by multiplying:


                                       7


<PAGE>


                    (A)  the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the
                         issuance of such Common Stock, options, rights or
                         securities by

                    (B)  a fraction of which (x) the denominator shall be the
                         number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on a
                         fully-diluted basis immediately after such issuance and
                         (y) the numerator shall be the sum of (i) the number of
                         shares of Common Stock outstanding on a fully-diluted
                         basis immediately prior to such issuance and (ii) the
                         number of additional shares of Common Stock which the
                         aggregate consideration for the number of shares of
                         Common Stock so offered would purchase at the
                         Conversion Price.

         For purposes of this Section 5(e), "fully diluted basis" shall be
determined in accordance with the treasury stock method of computing fully
diluted earnings per share in accordance with GAAP.

         (ii) Upon Acquisition of Common Stock. If the Company or any subsidiary
     shall, at any time or from time to time after the Original Issuance Date,
     directly or indirectly, redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of
     Common Stock, options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock,
     securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock
     (other than shares of Series B Preferred Stock that are redeemed according
     to their terms), or options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such
     convertible or exchangeable securities, for a consideration per share
     greater than the Fair Market Value (plus, in the case of such options,
     rights, or securities, the additional consideration required to be paid to
     the Company upon exercise, conversion or exchange) per share of Common
     Stock immediately prior to such event, then the Conversion Price shall
     forthwith be lowered to a price equal to the price obtained by multiplying:

                         (A) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to
                    such event by

                         (B) a fraction of which (x) the denominator shall be
                    the Fair Market Value per share of Common

                    Stock immediately prior to such event and (y) the numerator
                    shall be the result of dividing:

                    a) (1) the product of (A) the number of shares of Common
               Stock outstanding on a fully-diluted basis and (B) the Fair
               Market Value per share of Common Stock, in each case immediately
               prior to such event, minus (2) the aggregate consideration paid
               by the Company in such event (plus, in the case of such options,
               rights, or convertible or exchangeable securities, the aggregate
               additional consideration to be paid by the Company upon exercise,
               conversion or exchange), by

                    b) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on a
               fully-diluted basis immediately after such event.

         (iii) For the purposes of any adjustment of a Conversion Price pursuant
      to paragraphs (1) of this Section 5(e), the following provisions shall be
      applicable:

               (1) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash in a
          public offering or private placement, the consideration shall be
          deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting
          therefrom any discounts, commissions or placement fees payable by the
          Company to any underwriter or placement agent in connection with the
          issuance and sale thereof.

               (2) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a
          consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration
          other than cash shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Value thereof.

               (3) In the case of the issuance of options to purchase or rights
          to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible
          into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options to purchase or
          rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities
          (except for options to acquire Excluded Stock):

                    (A)  the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock
                         deliverable upon exercise of

                         such options to purchase or rights to subscribe for
                         Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the
                         time such options or rights were issued and for a
                         consideration equal to the consideration (determined in
                         the manner provided in subparagraphs (i) and (ii)
                         above), if any, received by the Company upon the
                         issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum
                         purchase price provided in such options or rights for
                         the Common Stock covered thereby;

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

                    (C)  on any change in the number of shares or exercise price
                         of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of any such
                         options or rights or conversions of or exchanges for
                         such securities, other than a change resulting from the
                         anti-dilution provisions thereof, the applicable
                         Conversion Price shall forthwith be readjusted to such
                         Conversion Price as would have been


                                       10


<PAGE>


                         obtained had the adjustment made upon the issuance of
                         such options, rights or securities not converted prior
                         to such change or options or rights related to such
                         securities not converted prior to such change been made
                         upon the basis of such change; and

                    (D)  no further adjustment of the Conversion Price adjusted
                         upon the issuance of any such options, rights,
                         convertible securities or exchangeable securities shall
                         be made as a result of the actual issuance of Common
                         Stock on the exercise of any such rights or options or
                         any conversion or exchange of any such securities.

         (iv) Upon Stock Dividends, Subdivisions or Splits. If, at any time
      after the Original Issuance Date, the number of shares of Common Stock
      outstanding is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common
      Stock or by a subdivision or split-up of shares of Common Stock, then,
      following the record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock
      entitled to receive such stock dividend, or to be affected by such
      subdivision or split-up, the Conversion Price shall be appropriately
      decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on
      conversion of Series B Preferred Stock shall be increased in proportion to
      such increase in outstanding shares.

         (v) Upon Combinations. If, at any time after the Original Issuance
      Date, the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding is decreased by a
      combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller
      number of shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date to
      determine shares affected by such combination, the Conversion Price shall
      be appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock
      issuable on conversion of each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be
      decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.

         (vi) Upon Reclassifications, Reorganizations, Consolidations or
      Mergers. In the event of any capital reorganization of the Company, any
      reclassification of the stock of the Company (other than a change in par
      value or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value
      or as a result of a stock dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination



                                       11


<PAGE>



      of shares), or any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into
      another corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or
      where there is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common
      Stock), each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall after such
      reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, or merger be convertible
      into the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or
      property of the Company or of the successor corporation resulting from
      such consolidation or surviving such merger, if any, to which the holder
      of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable (immediately prior to
      the time of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or
      merger) upon conversion of such Series B Preferred Stock would have been
      entitled upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or
      merger. The provisions of this clause shall similarly apply to successive
      reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, or mergers. The
      Company shall not effect any such reorganization, reclassification,
      consolidation or merger unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the
      successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such
      reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, shall assume, by written
      instrument, the obligation to deliver to the holders of the Series B
      Preferred Stock such shares of stock, securities or assets, which, in
      accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holders shall be entitled
      to receive upon such conversion.

         (vii) Deferral in Certain Circumstances. In any case in which the
      provisions of this Section 5(e) shall require that an adjustment shall
      become effective immediately after a record date of an event, the Company
      may defer until the occurrence of such event:

                   (1) issuing to the holder of any Series B Preferred Stock
         converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such
         event the shares of capital stock issuable upon such conversion by
         reason of the adjustment required by such event and issuing to such
         holder only the shares of capital stock issuable upon such conversion
         before giving effect to such adjustments, and

                   (2) paying to such holder any amount in cash in lieu of
         fractional share of capital stock pursuant to Section 5(d) above;

      provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to such holder an
      appropriate instrument or due bills evidencing such holder's right to
      receive such additional shares and such cash.



                                       12


<PAGE>



         (viii) Other Anti-Dilution Provisions. If the Company has issued or
      issues any securities on or after the Original Issuance Date containing
      provisions protecting the holder or holders thereof against dilution in
      any manner more favorable to such holder or holders thereof than those set
      forth in this Section 5, such provisions (or any more favorable portion
      thereof) shall be deemed to be incorporated herein as if fully set forth
      herein and, to the extent inconsistent with any provision herein, shall be
      deemed to be substituted therefor.

         (ix) Appraisal Procedure. In any case in which the provisions of this
      Section 5(e) shall necessitate that the Appraisal Procedure be utilized
      for purposes of determining an adjustment to the Conversion Price, the
      Company may defer until the completion of the Appraisal Procedure and the
      determination of the adjustment:

               (1) issuing to the holder of any share of Series B Preferred
         Stock converted after the date of the event that requires the
         adjustment and before completion of the Appraisal Procedure and the
         determination of the adjustment, the shares of capital stock issuable
         upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event
         and issuing to such holder only the shares of capital stock issuable
         upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment and

               (2) paying to such holder any amount in cash in lieu of a
         fractional share of capital stock pursuant to Section 5(d) above

      ; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to such holder an
      appropriate instrument or due bills evidencing such holder's right to
      receive such additional shares and such cash.

         (x) Exceptions. Section 5(e) shall not apply to (i) any issuance of
      Common Stock upon any grant or exercise of any warrants or options awarded
      to employees or directors of the Company pursuant to an employee stock
      option plan or stock incentive plan approved by the Board of Directors,
      (ii) any issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of the Preferred Stock,
      (iii) upon approval by the Preferred Stockholder, (x) any issuance of
      Common Stock or any grant of any warrants or options to purchase Common
      Stock as payment for services or



                                       13

      compensation or (y) in connection with an asset or stock acquisition
      (collectively, the "Excluded Stock").

         Section 5(b), in order to convert shares of Series B Preferred Stock, a
         holder must (A) surrender the certificate or certificates evidencing
         such holder's shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be converted, duly

         Stock for conversion in accordance with the foregoing provisions (or,

         of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock as holder shall cease, and
         the Person or Persons entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable

         for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion,
         together with payment in lieu of any fraction of a share, as provided

               (iii) In the case of any certificate evidencing shares of Series
         B Preferred Stock which is converted in part only, upon such conversion
         the Company shall execute and deliver a new certificate representing an
         aggregate number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock equal to the
         unconverted portion of such certificate.

Price is adjusted as herein provided: (i) the Company shall compute the adjusted
Conversion Price in accordance with Section 5(e) and shall prepare a certificate

by the Company at its expense to all holders at their last addresses as they
shall appear in the stock register.

         (h) Notice of Certain Corporate Action. In case: (i) the Company shall
take an action or an event shall occur, that would require a Conversion Price
adjustment pursuant to Section 5(e); or (ii) the Company shall grant to the

         (i) Company to Reserve Common Stock. The Company shall at all times
reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the authorized
but unissued Common Stock or out of the Common Stock held in treasury, for the
purpose of effecting the conversion of Series B Preferred Stock, the full number
of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding
shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

         Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the
Conversion Price below the then par value (if any) of the shares of Common Stock
deliverable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock or that would cause
the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of the Series B
Preferred Stock to exceed (when taken together with all other outstanding shares
of Common Stock) the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company is
authorized to issue, the Company will take any corporate action that, in the
opinion of its counsel, is necessary in order that the Company may validly and
legally issue the full number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common
Stock issuable upon conversion at such adjusted conversion price.

         (j) Taxes on Conversions. The Company will pay any and all original
issuance, transfer, stamp and other similar taxes that may be payable in respect
of the issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock on conversion of Series B
Preferred Stock pursuant hereto. The Company shall not, however, be required to
pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the
issue and delivery of shares of Common Stock in a name other than that of the
holder of the share(s) of Series B Preferred Stock to be converted, and no such
issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such
issue has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax, or has established to
the reasonable satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been or will be
paid.

         (k) Cancellation of Converted Series B Preferred Stock. All Series B
Preferred Stock delivered for conversion shall be delivered to the Company to be
canceled.

         (l) Certain Definitions. The following terms shall have the following
respective meanings herein:

                  "Appraisal Procedure" if applicable, means the following
         procedure to determine the fair market value, as to any security, for
         purposes of the definition of "Fair Market Value" or the fair market
         value, as to any other property (in either case, the "Valuation
         Amount"). The Valuation Amount shall be determined in good faith
         jointly by the Board of Directors and the




                                       17



<PAGE>


         holders of more than 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of Series
         B Preferred Stock (the "Majority Holder"); provided, however, that if
         such parties are not able to agree on the Valuation Amount within a
         reasonable period of time (not to exceed twenty (20) days), the
         Valuation Amount shall be determined by an investment banking firm of
         national recognition, which firm shall be reasonably acceptable to the
         Board of Directors and the Majority Holder. If the Board of Directors
         and the Majority Holder are unable to agree upon an acceptable
         investment banking firm within ten (10) days after the date either
         party proposed that one be selected, the investment banking firm will
         be selected by an arbitrator located in New York City, New York,
         selected by the American Arbitration Association (or if such
         organization ceases to exist, the arbitrator shall be chosen by a court
         of competent jurisdiction). The arbitrator shall select the investment
         banking firm (within ten (10) days of his appointment) from a list,
         jointly prepared by the Board of Directors and the Majority Holder, of
         not more than six investment banking firms of national standing in the
         United States, of which no more than three may be named by the Board of
         Directors and no more than three may be named by the Majority Holder.
         The arbitrator may consider, within the ten-day period allotted,
         arguments from the parties regarding which investment banking firm to
         choose, but the selection by the arbitrator shall be made in its sole
         discretion from the list of six. The Board of Directors and the
         Majority Holder shall submit their respective valuations and other
         relevant data to the investment banking firm, and the investment

         closest together, as determined by the investment banking firm, from
         among the Valuation Amounts submitted by the Company and the Majority

         provisions concerning the rights of indemnification and contribution by
         the Company in favor of such investment banking firm or arbitrator and

         stock; provided, however that such assumption will not include those
         securities, rights and warrants convertible into Common Stock where the
         conversion, exchange or exercise price per share is greater than the
         Fair Market Value; provided, further, however, that Fair Market Value

         connection with the calculation of Fair Market Value, the average of

         shall count as a number of shares of Voting Stock equal to the number

         or upon the passage of time or the occurrence of some future event.
         Each Voting Stock Equivalent shall count as a number of shares of
         Voting Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which
         such Voting Stock Equivalent is then convertible, exchangeable or
         exercisable.

Section 6. Dividend Received Deduction.

         For federal income tax purposes, the Company shall report distributions
on the Series B Preferred Stock as dividends, to the extent of the Company's
current and accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for federal income
tax purposes).

<PAGE>



                In case the Company proposes at any time to issue or sell any
Voting Stock, options, rights or warrants to purchase Voting Stock or Voting
Stock Equivalents or any other securities (whether debt or equity) of the
Company, other than Excluded Stock (collectively, the "Company Offered
Securities"), the Company shall, no later than twenty-five (25) days prior to
the consummation of such transaction (a "Preemptive Rights Transaction"), give
notice in writing (the "Preemptive Rights Offer Notice") to each holder of
Series B Preferred Stock of such Preemptive Rights Transaction. The Preemptive
Rights Offer Notice shall describe the proposed Preemptive Rights Transaction,
identify the proposed purchaser, and contain an offer (the "Preemptive Rights
Offer") to sell to each holder of Series B Preferred Stock, at the same price
and for the same consideration to be paid by the proposed purchaser (provided,
that, in the event any of such consideration is non-cash consideration, at the
election of such holder of Series B Preferred Stock to whom the Preemptive
Rights Offer is made, such holder of Series B Preferred Stock may pay cash equal
to the value of such non-cash consideration), all or any part of such holder of
Series B Preferred Stock's pro rata portion of the Company Offered Securities
(which shall be a fraction of the Company Offered Securities determined by
dividing the number of shares of outstanding Voting Stock owned by such holder
of Series B Preferred Stock by the sum of (i) the number of shares of
outstanding Voting Stock owned by such holder of Series B Preferred Stock and
(ii) the number of outstanding shares of Voting Stock not held by such holder of
Series B Preferred Stock). If any holder of Series B Preferred Stock to whom a
Preemptive Rights Offer is made fails to accept (a "Non-Responding Holder") in
writing the Preemptive Rights Offer by the tenth (10th) day after the Company's
delivery of the Preemptive Rights Offer Notice, such Non-Responding Holders
shall have no further rights with respect to the proposed Preemptive Rights
Transaction.
