WARRANT AGREEMENT
 
THIS WARRANT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of February 22, 2008,
between FREEDOM FINANCIAL GROUP, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
and REMARK CAPITAL GROUP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(“Purchaser”).
 
RECITALS:
 
A. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in Section 6 hereof.
 
B. The Board of Directors has authorized the issuance of 700,000 Warrants (the
“Warrants”) of the Company, each Warrant representing the right to purchase one
(1) share of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the
“Common Stock”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set
forth, and subject to adjustment as set forth herein.
 
C. Each of the Company, Freedom Financial Auto Receivables, LLC, a wholly owned
special purpose subsidiary of the Company (the “Borrower”), Archon Group, L.P.
and the Purchaser are parties to that certain Revolving Loan and Security
Agreement (as the same may be amended, restated or otherwise modified from time
to time in accordance with its terms, the “Loan Agreement”), dated as of January
31, 2008, pursuant to which Purchaser has agreed to lend certain amounts to the
Borrower and, in connection therewith, the Company has agreed to issue the
Warrants to Goldman, Sachs & Co. Inc., for the benefit of Purchaser, on the
terms set forth herein.
 
AGREEMENT:
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements set
forth herein, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:
 
1.  FORM, EXECUTION AND TRANSFER OF WARRANT CERTIFICATE.
 
1.1.  Form of Warrant Certificate.
 
The warrant certificate (the “Warrant Certificate”) evidencing the Warrant and
the form of assignment and of election to purchase shares to be attached to such
certificate shall be substantially in the form set forth in Attachment A hereto,
and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or
designation as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or
regulation of any governmental authority, stock exchange or self-regulatory
organization made pursuant thereto. The Warrant Certificate shall be dated the
date of issuance thereof by the Company, either upon initial issuance or upon
transfer or exchange, and on its face shall initially entitle the holder thereof
(each, a “Holder”) to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the
number of Warrants represented by such Warrant Certificate (the “Warrant
Shares”) at a price per share equal to the Purchase Price, but the number of
Warrant Shares and the Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment as provided
herein.
 
1.2.  Execution of Warrant Certificate; Registration Books.
 
 
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
 
(a)  Execution of Warrant Certificate. The Warrant Certificate shall be executed
on behalf of the Company by its President, one of its Vice Presidents or any
other officer of the Company authorized by the Board of Directors. In case the
officer of the Company who shall have signed any Warrant Certificate shall cease
to be such an officer of the Company before issuance and delivery by the Company
of such Warrant Certificate, such Warrant Certificate nevertheless may be issued
and delivered with the same force and effect as though the individual who signed
such Warrant Certificate had not ceased to be such an officer of the Company,
and any Warrant Certificate may be signed on behalf of the Company by any
individual who, at the actual date of the execution of such Warrant Certificate,
shall be a proper officer of the Company to sign such Warrant Certificate,
although at the date of the execution of this Agreement any such individual was
not such an officer.
 
(b)  Registration Books. The Company will keep or cause to be kept at its office
maintained at the address of the Company set forth in Section 7.6 hereof, or at
such other office of the Company in the United States of America of which the
Company shall have given notice to each Holder of a Warrant Certificate, books
for registration and transfer of each Warrant Certificate issued hereunder. Such
books shall show the name and address of the Holder of the Warrant Certificate,
the registration number and the number of Warrants evidenced on its face by the
Warrant Certificate and the date of the Warrant Certificate.
 
1.3.  Transfer, Split Up, Combination and Exchange of Warrant Certificate; Lost
or Stolen Warrant Certificate.
 
(a)  Transfer, Split Up, etc. Any Warrant Certificate may be transferred, split
up, combined or exchanged for another Warrant Certificate(s) entitling the
registered Holder or transferee thereof to purchase a like number of Warrant
Shares as the Warrant Certificate surrendered then entitled such registered
Holder to purchase. Any registered Holder desiring to transfer, split up,
combine or exchange any Warrant Certificate shall make such request in writing
delivered to the Company, and shall surrender the Warrant Certificate(s) to be
transferred, split up, combined or exchanged at the office of the Company
referred to in Section 1.2(b) hereof, whereupon the Company shall deliver
promptly to the Person entitled thereto a Warrant Certificate, as so requested.
Each registered Holder of a Warrant Certificate, by its acceptance thereof,
agrees not to transfer any Warrant Certificate in any manner which would violate
Section 5 of the Securities Act.
 
(b)  Loss, Theft, etc. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of any Warrant Certificate, the Company at its own expense will
execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant Certificate, dated the date
of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant Certificate and of like
tenor, in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant Certificate.
 
2.  EXERCISE OF WARRANTS; PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE.
 
2.1.  Exercise of Warrant.
 
(a)  Manner of Exercise. At any time and from time to time prior to the
Expiration Date, but subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.3 hereof,
the Holder of a Warrant Certificate may exercise the Warrants evidenced thereby
by surrendering the Warrant Certificate, with an election to purchase (a form of
which is attached to each Warrant Certificate) attached thereto duly executed,
to the Company at its office referred to in Section 1.2(b) hereof, together with
payment of the Purchase Price (if the Holder is not utilizing a cashless
exercise) for each Warrant Share with respect to which the Warrants are then
being exercised (the date of a Holder’s delivery of, such items being the “Date
of Exercise”).
 
 
-2-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
(b)  Payment in Cash. Upon exercise of any Warrants, the Holder may pay the
Purchase Price in cash or by certified or official bank check payable to the
order of the Company or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
account of the Company.
 
(c)  Automatic Cashless Exercise. If, immediately prior to the Expiration Date,
any of the Warrants shall have not been exercised and remain outstanding, and if
the Fair Market Value is greater than the Purchase Price immediately prior to
the Expiration Date, then, unless the Holder of thereof otherwise elects by
written notice to the Company, all outstanding Warrants shall be deemed to be
exercised by the Holder thereof pursuant to Section 2.2 of this Agreement
immediately prior to the Expiration Date (without regard to any limitations set
forth in Section 2.3), automatically and without any affirmative action on the
part of any such Holder.
 
2.2.  Cashless Exercise of Warrants.
 
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.1 hereof, if the Fair Market Value
is greater than the Purchase Price (at the date of calculation, as set forth
below), in lieu of exercising the Warrant as permitted in Section 2.1, the
Holder may elect to receive shares of Common Stock equal to the value (as
determined below) of the Warrants (or the portion thereof being canceled) by
surrender of the Warrant Certificate, together with the election to purchase (a
form of which is attached to each Warrant Certificate) attached thereto duly
executed, to the Company at its office referred to in Section 1.2(b) hereof, in
which event the Company shall issue to the Holder that number of Warrant Shares
computed using the following formula:
 
CS = WCS x (FMV-PP)
 
FMV
 
where:
 
CS equals the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder of the Warrant
Certificate upon a cashless exercise
 
WCS equals the gross number of Warrant Shares purchasable under the Warrants
being exercised (at the date of such calculation, calculated as if the Purchase
Price were being paid in cash)
 
FMV equals the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock (at the date of
such calculation)
 
PP equals the Purchase Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).
 
For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended,
understood and acknowledged that the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of the Warrants in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to
have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for such shares shall
be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued.
 
 
-3-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
2.3.  Limitations on Exercise.
 
(a)  Five Percent Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the number of Warrant Shares that may be acquired by the Holder upon any
exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to
the extent necessary to insure that, following such exercise (or other
issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by
such Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership
of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder's for purposes of Section
13(d) of the Exchange Act, does not exceed 4.999% of the total number of issued
and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon such exercise). For such purposes, beneficial
ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange
Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. This provision shall
not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which a Holder may receive or
beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other
consideration that such Holder may receive in connection with a transaction
described in Section 4.1(c). By written notice to the Company, a Holder may
waive the provisions of this Section 2.3(a) as to itself but any such waiver
will not be effective until the 61st day after delivery thereof and such waiver
shall have no effect on any other Holder.
 
(b)  Ten Percent Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the number of Warrant Shares that may be acquired by the Holder upon any
exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to
the extent necessary to insure that, following such exercise (or other
issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by
such Holder and its Affiliates and any other Persons whose beneficial ownership
of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder's for purposes of Section
13(d) of the Exchange Act, does not exceed 9.999% of the total number of issued
and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon such exercise). For such purposes, beneficial
ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange
Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. This provision shall
not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which a Holder may receive or
beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other
consideration that such Holder may receive in connection with a transaction
described in Section 4.1(c). This restriction may not be waived by the Holder.
 
2.4.  Issuance of Common Stock.
 
(a)  Delivery of Shares. Upon timely receipt of a Warrant Certificate, with the
form of election to purchase duly executed, accompanied by payment of the
Purchase Price for each of the shares to be purchased in the manner provided in
Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 hereof, the Company shall thereupon promptly (but in
any event within three (3) Business Days of the Date Exercise) (i) cause
certificates representing the number of whole Warrant Shares then being
purchased to be delivered to or upon the order of the registered Holder of such
Warrant Certificate, registered in such name or names as may be designated by
such Holder, and (ii) deliver the cash, if any, to be paid in lieu of fractional
shares pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof to or upon the order of the registered
Holder of such Warrant Certificate. The Company shall, upon request of a Holder
and subsequent to the date on which a registration statement covering the resale
of the Warrant Shares has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, use its reasonable best efforts to deliver Warrant Shares hereunder
electronically through the Depository Trust Corporation or another established
clearing corporation performing similar functions.
 
 
-4-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
(b)  Rescission Right. If by the third Business Day after a Date of Exercise the
Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner
required pursuant to this Section 2.4, then the Holder will have the right to
rescind such exercise.
 
(c)  Buy-In Election. If by the third Business Day after a Date of Exercise the
Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner
required pursuant to this Section 2.4, and if after such third Business Day and
prior to the receipt of such Warrant Shares, the Holder purchases (in an open
market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in
satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder
anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall
(1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount by which (x) the Holder's total
purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of
Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the
number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder
in connection with the exercise at issue by (B) the closing bid price of the
Common Stock at the time of the delivery obligation giving rise to such purchase
and (2) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant
and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored
or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have
been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery
obligations hereunder. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice
indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In.
 
(d)  Unconditional Obligation. The Company's obligations to issue and deliver
Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and
unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce
the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the
recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same,
or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any
breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to
the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any
other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise
limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the
issuance of Warrant Shares. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder's right to
pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity
including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or
injunctive relief with respect to the Company's failure to timely deliver
certificates representing Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as
required pursuant to the terms hereof.
 
2.5.  Unexercised Warrants.  In case the registered Holder of any Warrant
Certificate shall exercise less than all the Warrants evidenced thereby, a new
Warrant Certificate evidencing Warrants equal in number to the number of
Warrants remaining unexercised shall be issued by the Company to the registered
Holder of such Warrant Certificate or to its duly authorized assigns.
 
 
-5-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
2.6.  Notice of Expiration.  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.1(c), all
Warrants that have not been exercised or purchased in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement shall expire and all rights of holders of such
Warrants shall terminate and cease on the Expiration Date.
 
2.7.  Restrictions on Transfer; Restrictive Legends.  No Warrant or Warrant
Shares may be offered, sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of, in whole or
in part, to any Person except as permitted under the Securities Act and
applicable state securities laws, pursuant to either an effective registration
statement or an exemption therefrom.
 
(a)  Each Warrant Certificate and each certificate representing Warrant Shares,
unless at the time of exercise such shares are registered under the Securities
Act, shall bear the following legend:
 
“The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be sold, exchanged or
transferred in any manner in the absence of such registration or an opinion of
counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company that no such registration is
required. The securities are subject to the terms of a certain Warrant
Agreement, dated February 22, 2008, pursuant to which they were issued”
 
Any certificate issued at any time in exchange or substitution for any
certificate bearing such legend (except a new certificate issued upon completion
of a public distribution pursuant to a registration statement under the
Securities Act of the shares represented thereby) shall also bear the above
legend unless, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company, the
securities represented thereby need no longer be subject to such restrictions.
 
3.  RESERVATION AND AVAILABILITY OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK; TRANSFER TAXES.
 
3.1.  Reservation of Common Stock.  The Company covenants and agrees that it
will at all times cause to be reserved and kept available out of its authorized
and unissued shares of Common Stock such number of shares of Common Stock as
will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all Warrants issued
hereunder.
 
3.2.  Common Stock to Be Duly Authorized and Issued, Fully Paid and
Nonassessable. The Company covenants and agrees that it will take all such
action as may be necessary to ensure that all shares of Common Stock delivered
upon the exercise of any Warrants, at the time of delivery of the certificates
representing such shares, shall be duly and validly authorized and issued and
fully paid and nonassessable, free of any preemptive rights and free of any
Lien.
 
 
-6-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
3.3.  Transfer Taxes. The Company covenants and agrees that it will pay when due
and payable any and all federal and state transfer taxes and charges that may be
payable in respect of the initial issuance or delivery of:
 
(a)  each Warrant Certificate;
 
(b)  each Warrant Certificate issued in exchange for any other Warrant
Certificate pursuant to Section 1.3(a) or Section 2.5 hereof; and
 
(c)  each share of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of any Warrant.
 
3.4.  Common Stock Record Date. Each Person in whose name any certificate for
shares of Common Stock is issued upon the exercise of Warrants shall for all
purposes be deemed to have become the Holder of record of the Common Stock
represented thereby on, and such certificate shall be dated, the date upon which
the originally executed Warrant Certificate evidencing such Warrants was duly
surrendered with an election to purchase attached thereto duly executed and
payment of the aggregate Purchase Price (and any applicable transfer taxes, if
payable by such Person) was made. Prior to the exercise of the Warrants
evidenced thereby, the Holder of a Warrant Certificate shall not be entitled to
any rights of a stockholder in the Company with respect to shares for which the
Warrants shall be exercisable, including, without limitation, the right to
receive dividends or other distributions, and shall not be entitled to receive
any notice of any proceedings of the Company, except as provided herein or in
any other applicable agreement between the Company and such Holder.
 
3.5.  CUSIP Number. The Company covenants and agrees that it shall maintain its
current CUSIP Number in respect of the Common Stock from the CUSIP Service
Bureau of Standard & Poor’s, a division of McGraw-Hill, Inc.
 
4.  ADJUSTMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES; FRACTIONAL SHARES;
SPECIAL AGREEMENTS.
 
4.1.  Adjustments. The number of Warrant Shares and the Purchase Price shall be
subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.
 
(a)  Distribution of Property. In case, at any time during the term of the
Warrants, the Company shall declare a cash dividend upon its Common Stock or
shall distribute to holders of its Common Stock shares of its capital stock
(other than Common Stock), stock or other Securities of any other Person(s),
evidences of indebtedness issued by the Company or any other Person(s), other
assets or options or warrants or rights, then, in each such case, immediately
following the record date fixed for the determination of the holders of Common
Stock entitled to receive such dividend or distribution:
 
(i)  the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the
Warrants thereafter shall be determined by multiplying the number of Warrant
Shares immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, of which the
numerator shall be the Reference Price and the denominator shall be an amount
equal to (A) the Reference Price minus (B) the Fair Market Value of the stock,
securities, evidences of indebtedness, assets, options, warrants or rights so
distributed in respect of one share of Common Stock; and
 
 
-7-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
(ii)  the Purchase Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Purchase Price In
effect immediately prior to the record date for such dividend or distribution by
a fraction, of which the numerator shall be an amount equal to (A) the Reference
Price minus (B) the Fair Market Value of the stock, securities, evidences of
indebtedness, assets, options, warrants or rights so distributed in respect of
one share of Common Stock, and the denominator shall be the Reference Price; and
 
(iii)  each adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4.1(a) shall be made on the
date such dividend or distribution is made, and shall become effective at the
opening of business on the Business Day next following the record date for the
determination of stockholders entitled to such dividend or distribution.
 
(b)  Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations. In case at any time during the
term of the Warrants 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 fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive
such stock dividend, subdivision or split-up, the number of Warrant Shares shall
be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding shares and the
Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such stock dividend, subdivision
or split-up shall be proportionately reduced. Conversely, in case at any time
during the term of this Warrant the Company shall combine its outstanding shares
of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the number of Warrant Shares
immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately reduced and the
Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be
proportionately increased.
 
(c)  Consolidation; Merger; Sale; Reclassification. If at any time during the
term of the Warrants any capital reorganization or reclassification of the
capital stock of the Company (other than a change in par value or from no par
value to par value or as a result of a stock dividend or subdivision or split-up
or combination of shares), or consolidation or merger of the Company with
another corporation, or the sale or other disposition of all or substantially
all of the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ properties and assets to
another Person, shall be effected in such a way that holders of shares of Common
Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, other Securities or assets with
respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then as a condition of such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or disposition,
lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holders of the Warrants
shall thereafter have the right to receive upon the basis and upon the terms and
conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock
immediately theretofore receivable upon the exercise of the Warrants, such
shares of stock, other Securities or assets as may be issued or payable with
respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of Common Stock
equal to the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore so
receivable had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger,
sale or disposition not taken place, and in any such case lawful and adequate
provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the holders
of the Warrants to the end that the provisions of this Agreement and of the
Warrants (including without limitation provisions for adjustment of the Purchase
Price and of the Warrant Shares) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as
may be, in relation to any shares of stock, other Securities or assets
thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrants. The Company shall not
effect any such consolidation, merger or sale unless prior to or simultaneously
with the consummation thereof the survivor or successor corporation (if other
than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the Person
purchasing such properties and assets shall assume the obligation to deliver to
such holders such shares of stock, other Securities or assets as, in accordance
with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to receive. The
provisions of this Section 4.1(c) shall similarly apply to successive
reorganizations, reclassification, consolidations, mergers, sales or other
dispositions.
 
 
-8-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
(d)  Issuance of Additional Common Stock. In addition to all other adjustments
to the number Warrant Shares set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, if the
Company shall at any time or from time to time during the term of the Warrants
issue or sell any shares of Common Stock (or be deemed to have issued any shares
of Common Stock as provided herein), other than Excluded Securities (i) to the
Company’s Affiliates for consideration greater than $0.35 per share (subject to
adjustment on the same basis as the Purchase Price), but below the Reference
Price (a “Discounted Issuance”) or (ii) to any Person (whether or not an
Affiliate of the Company) for consideration less than $0.35 per share (a “Below
Exercise Price Issuance”), then the following adjustments shall occur:
 
(A)  In the event of a Discounted Issuance, the Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to such issuance or sale shall be reduced effective
concurrently with such issuance or sale to an amount determined by multiplying
the Purchase Price then in effect by a fraction, (x) the numerator of which
shall be the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to the Discounted Issuance plus (2) the number of shares of

received upon such issuance shall be deemed to be the gross amount of cash paid

or in part other than cash, the consideration received upon such issuance other
than cash shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Value thereof, provided,

consideration shall not be deemed to exceed the Current Market Price of the
shares of Common Stock being issued if the Common Stock is then quoted by an
organization referred to in the definition of Current Market Price.
 
(iii)  In the case of the issuance of Common Stock without consideration, the
consideration received upon such issuance shall be deemed to be $0.0001 per

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 were
issued or such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to
the consideration, if any, 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 minimum additional consideration, if
any, to be received by the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such

(C)  on any change in the aggregate maximum number of shares of, or the minimum
purchase price or other additional consolidation payable for Common Stock
deliverable upon the 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 Warrant Shares automatically and forthwith
shall be readjusted to such number as would have been obtained had the
adjustment made upon the issuance of such options, rights or other 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)  on the expiration of all such options or rights, the termination of all
such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of all options or rights
related to such convertible or exchangeable Securities, the Warrant Shares
automatically and forthwith shall be readjusted to such number as would have
obtained had the adjustment made upon the issuance of such options, rights or
other Securities or options or rights related to such Securities not been made.
 
(f)  Other Adjustments. In case at any time or from time to time during the term
of the Warrants conditions arise by reason of any action(s) taken or omitted to
be taken by the Company which, in the opinion of the Company’s Board of
Directors, are not adequately covered by the provisions of this Section 4.1, and
which might materially and adversely affect the exercise rights of the holders
of the Warrants, the Company shall obtain an opinion of the Company’s
independent certified public accountants, or of other independent certified
public accountants selected by the Company and reasonably satisfactory to the
Required Holders, setting forth any adjustment of the Warrant Shares and/or of
the Purchase Price, on a basis consistent with the standards established in the
other provisions of this Section 4.1, necessary in order to preserve, without
diminution, the proportionate interest in the Common Stock purchasable upon the
exercise of the Warrants and the exercise rights of the holders of the Warrants.
Upon receipt of such opinion, the Board of Directors of the Company shall
forthwith make the adjustments described therein.

Stock for the purposes of Section 4.1(d).

such objection within 10 days of delivery of such notice to the Company, such
objection shall be resolved by an independent accounting firm mutually agreed
upon by the Company and such Holder of the Warrant. The Company shall bear the
fees and expenses of such firm if the Company’s calculations are not upheld by
such firm. Such Holder shall bear the fees and expenses of such firm if the
Company’s calculations are upheld by such firm. If a Holder of any Warrant fails

of delivery of such notice, such calculation shall be deemed to be correct and
accurate and binding upon any Holder failing to object.

adjustments in the number of Warrant Shares, the Purchase Price or the number or
kind of cash, Securities or other property or assets purchasable upon the
exercise of the Warrants, this Agreement and the Warrants may continue to
express the same price and number and kind of Securities as are initially stated

2.  Registration Rights. The Company covenants and agrees as follows:
 
2.1.  Request for Registration.
 
(a) If the Company shall receive at any time after February 22, 2008, a written
request from the Holder of a majority of the Registrable Securities then
outstanding that the Company file a registration statement under the Securities
Act covering the registration of at least fifty percent (50%) of the Registrable
Securities then outstanding then the Company shall:
 
(i) within ten (10) days of the receipt thereof, give written notice of such
request to all Holders;
 
(ii) as soon as practicable, and in any event within 60 days of the receipt of
such request, file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering
all Registrable Securities which the Holders request to be registered, subject
to the limitations of subsection 2.1(b); and
 
(iii) use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared
effective by the SEC as soon as practicable but in no event later than 90 days
after such request.
 
 
-2-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
(b) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities
covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the
Company as a part of their request made pursuant to subsection 2.1(a) and the
Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in
subsection 2.1(a). The underwriter will be selected by the Initiating Holders,
subject only to the reasonable approval of the Company. In such event, the right
of any Holder to include such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such
registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such
underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the
underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute
their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company as
provided in subsection 2.3(e)) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary
form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.1, if the underwriter
advises the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors require a
limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Initiating
Holders shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities which would
otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares of
Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be
allocated among all Holders of Registrable Securities, including the Initiating
Holders, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the number of Registrable
Securities of the Company owned by each Holder; provided, however, that the
number of shares of Registrable Securities held by the Holders to be included in
such underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities are first
entirely excluded from the underwriting. To facilitate the allocation of shares
in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may
round the number of shares allocated to any Holder to the nearest 100 shares.
 
(c) The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to
effect, any registration
 
(i) pursuant to this Section 2.1:
 
(A) In any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to
execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration,
unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except
as may be required under the Securities Act;
 
(B) After the Company has effected two registrations pursuant to this Section
2.1 and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective;
 
(C) If the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of shares of Registrable
Securities that may be immediately registered on Form S-3 pursuant to a request
made pursuant to Section 2.11 below; or
 
(ii) pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement in any particular
jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent
to service of process in effecting such registration, unless the Company is
already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required
under the Securities Act.
 
 
-3-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to Holders
requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.1 a certificate
signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in the good
faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company it would be materially
detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such registration statement
to become effective or to remain effective as long as such registration
statement would otherwise be required to remain effective because such action
(x) would materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate
reorganization or other similar transaction involving the Company, (y) would
require premature disclosure of material information that the Company has a bona
fide business purpose for preserving as confidential or (z) would render the
Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange
Act, the Company shall have the right to defer taking action with respect to
such filing for a period of not more than one hundred twenty (120) days after
receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders; provided, however, that the
Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve-month period and
provided further that the Company shall not register any securities for the
account of itself or any other stockholder during such one hundred twenty (120)
day period other than a registration statement relating either to the sale of
securities to employees of the Company pursuant to a stock option, stock
purchase or similar plan or an SEC Rule 145 transaction, a registration on any
form that does not include substantially the same information as would be
required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the
Registrable Securities, or a registration in which the only Common Stock being
registered is Common Stock issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are
also being registered).
 
A registration statement shall not be counted until such time as such
registration statement has been declared effective by the SEC (unless the
Initiating Holders withdraw their request for such registration (other than as a
result of information concerning the business or financial condition of the
Company which is made known to the Investors after the date on which such
registration was requested) and elect not to pay the registration expenses
therefor pursuant to Section 2.5). A registration statement shall not be counted
if, as a result of an exercise of the underwriter's cut-back provisions, fewer
than 50% of the total number of Registrable Securities that Holders have
requested to be included in such registration statement are actually included.
 
2.2.  Company Registration. If the Company proposes to register (including for
this purpose a registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than
the Holders) any of its stock or other securities under the Securities Act in
connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other
than a registration statement relating either to the sale of securities to
employees of the Company pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or similar
plan or an SEC Rule 145 transaction, a registration on any form which does not
include substantially the same information as would be required to be included
in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities or a
registration in which the only Common Stock being registered is Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of debt securities which are also being registered),
the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder written notice of
such registration. Upon the written request of each Holder given within twenty
(20) days after mailing of such notice by the Company in accordance with Section
7.6 of the Warrant Agreement, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of
Section 2.7, cause to be registered under the Securities Act all of the
Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be registered. The
Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated
by it under this Section 2.2 prior to the effectiveness of such registration
whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such
registration. The expenses of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the
Company in accordance with Section 2.6 hereof.
 
 
-4-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
2.3.  Obligation of the Company. Whenever required under this Section 2 to
effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as
expeditiously as reasonably possible:
 
(a) prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such
Registrable Securities and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such
registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders
of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such
registration statement effective for a period of up to one hundred twenty (120)
days or, if earlier, until the distribution contemplated in the Registration
Statement has been completed; provided, however, that (i) such 120-day period
shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period the Holder refrains
from selling any securities included in such registration at the request of an
underwriter of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company; and (ii) in
the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 which are
intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, subject to compliance
with applicable SEC rules, such 120-day period shall be extended, if necessary,
to keep the registration statement effective until all such Registrable
Securities are sold;
 
(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such
registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such
registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the
Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such
registration statement;
 
(c) furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a
preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities
Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to
facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them;
 
(d) use its reasonable best efforts to register and qualify the securities
covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky
laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders;
provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a
condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to
service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is
already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by
the Securities Act;
 
(e) in the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its
obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with
the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder participating in such
underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an
agreement;
 
(f) use reasonable best efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities
registered pursuant to this Agreement hereunder to be listed on a national
securities exchange or trading system and each securities exchange and trading
system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed;
 
 
-5-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
(g) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities
registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable
Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration;
 
(h) use its reasonable best efforts to furnish, at the request of any Holder
requesting registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2, on
the date on which such Registrable Securities are sold to the underwriter, (i)
an opinion, dated such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the
purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to
underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters,
if any, and (ii) a “comfort” letter dated such date, from the independent
certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is
customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in
an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any.
 
2.4.  Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations
of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 2 with respect to the
Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to
the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held
by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be
reasonably required to effect the registration of such Holder’s Registrable
Securities.
 
2.5.  Expenses of Demand Registration. All expenses other than underwriting
discounts and commissions incurred in connection with registrations, filings or
qualifications pursuant to Section 2.1, including (without limitation) all
registration, filing and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, fees
and disbursements of counsel for the Company and the reasonable fees and
disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holders shall be borne by the
Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for
any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.1 if the
registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of
a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered (in which case all
participating Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata based upon the number of
Registrable Securities that were to be included in the withdrawn registration),
unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities agree to forfeit
their right to one demand registration pursuant to Section 2.1; provided
further, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders have
learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of
the Company from that known to the Holders at the time of their request and have
withdrawn the request with reasonable promptness after learning of such
information, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of such expenses
and shall retain their rights pursuant to Section 2.1.
 
2.6.  Expenses of Company Registration. The Company shall bear and pay all
expenses incurred in connection with any registration, filing or qualification
of Registrable Securities with respect to the registrations pursuant to Section
2.2 hereof for each Holder (which right may be assigned as provided in Section
2.12 hereof), including (without limitation) all registration, filing, and
qualification fees, printers and accounting fees relating or apportionable
thereto and the fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holders
selected by them, but excluding underwriting discounts and commissions relating
to Registrable Securities.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
2.7.  Underwriting Requirements. In connection with any offering involving an
underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to Section 2.2,
the Company shall not be required to include any of the Holders’ securities in
such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed
upon between the Company and its underwriters, and then only in such quantity as
the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the
success of the offering by the Company. If the total number of securities,
including Registrable Securities, requested by stockholders to be included in
such offering exceeds the amount of securities to be sold other than by the
Company that the underwriters determine in their reasonable discretion is
compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required
to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including
Registrable Securities, which the underwriters and the Company determine in
their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering. In no
event shall any Registrable Securities be excluded from such offering unless all
other stockholders’ securities have been first excluded. In the event that the
underwriters determine that less than all of the Registrable Securities
requested to be registered can be included in such offering, then the
Registrable Securities that are included in such offering shall be apportioned
pro rata among the selling Holders based on the number of Registrable Securities
held by all selling Holders or in such other proportions as shall mutually be
agreed to by all such selling Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no
event shall the amount of securities of the selling Holders included in the
offering be reduced below twenty percent (20%) of the total amount of securities
included in such offering, unless such offering is the Company’s IPO in which
case the selling Holders may be excluded beyond this amount if the underwriters
make the determination described above and no other stockholder’s securities are
included in such offering. For purposes of the preceding parenthetical
concerning apportionment, for any selling stockholder which is a Holder of
Registrable Securities and which is an investment fund, partnership, limited
liability company or corporation, the partners, members, retired partners,
retired members, stockholders and Affiliates of such Holder, or the estates and
family members of any such partners, retired partners, members and retired
members and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons shall be
deemed to be a single “selling Holder”, and any pro-rata reduction with respect
to such “selling Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares
carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in
such “selling Holder,” as defined in this sentence.
 
2.8.  Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an
injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any registration pursuant to this
Agreement as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the
interpretation or implementation of this Section 2.
 
2.9.  Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a
registration statement under this Section 2:
 
(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless
each Holder, the partners, members, officers, directors and stockholders of each
Holder, legal counsel and accountants for each Holder, any underwriter (as
defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who
controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or
the Exchange Act, against any Violation and the Company will pay to each such
Holder, underwriter, controlling person or other aforementioned person, any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action as
such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement
contained in this subsection 2.9(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in
settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such
settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case
for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action to the extent that it
arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection
with such registration by any such Holder, underwriter, controlling person or
other aforementioned person.
 
 
-7-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
(b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will severally and not
jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of
its officers who has signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who
controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, legal counsel and
accountants for the Company, any underwriter, any other Holder selling
securities in such registration statement and any controlling person of any such
underwriter or other Holder, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities
(joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject,
under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the
extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and
in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for
use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will pay, any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be
indemnified pursuant to this subsection 2.9(b), in connection with investigating
or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided,
however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 2.9(b) shall
not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the
Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further,
that, in no event shall any indemnity under this subsection 2.9(b) exceed the
net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of
fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder.
 
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 2.9 of
notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action),
such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against
any indemnifying party under this Section 2.9, deliver to the indemnifying party
a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall
have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so
desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume
the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided,
however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties
which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right
to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the
indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel
retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or
potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party
represented by such counsel in such proceeding.
 
 
-8-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability
under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) any Holder exercising
rights under this Agreement, or any controlling person of any such Holder, makes
a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 2.9 but it is judicially
determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent
jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last
right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case
notwithstanding the fact that this Section 2.9 provides for indemnification in
such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the
part of any such selling Holder or any such controlling person in circumstances
for which indemnification is provided under this Section 2.9, then, and in each
such case, the Company and such Holder will contribute to the aggregate losses,
claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution
from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault
of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the
other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss,
liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the
indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’
relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or
prevent such statement or omission; provided however, that, in any such case,
(I) no such Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the
public offering price of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by
such Holder pursuant to such registration statement, and (II) no person or
entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or
entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation; provided
further, that in no event shall a Holder’s liability pursuant to this Section
2.9(d), when combined with the amounts paid or payable by such holder pursuant
to Section 2.9(b), exceed the proceeds from the offering (net of any
underwriting discounts or commissions) received by such Holder, except in the
case of willful fraud by such Holder.
 
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on
indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered
into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with
the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall
control.
 
(f) Unless otherwise superceded by an underwriting agreement entered into in
connection with the underwritten public offering, the obligations of the Company
and Holders under this Section 2.9 shall survive the completion of any offering
of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Section 2, and
otherwise and shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
 
2.10.  Reports Under Exchange Act. With a view to making available to the
Holders the benefits of Sec Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and
any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to
sell securities of the Company to the public without registration or pursuant to
a registration on Form S-3, the Company agrees to:
 
 
-9-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood
and defined in SEC Rule 144, at all times after the effective date of the first
registration statement filed by the Company for the offering of its securities
to the general public so long as the Company is subject to the periodic
reporting requirements under Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;
 
(b) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents
required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and
 
(c) furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable
Securities, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the Company that
it has complied with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144, the Securities
Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such
reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities
may be resold pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a
copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other
reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information
as may be reasonably requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation
of the SEC which permits the selling of any such securities without registration
or pursuant to such form.
 
2.11.  Form S-3 Registration. In case the Company shall receive from Holders of
at least 50% of all Registrable Securities then outstanding a written request or
requests that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3 and any related
qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable
Securities owned by such Holder or Holders, the Company will:
 
(a) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and any related
qualification or compliance, to all other Holders; and
 
(b) as soon as practicable, effect such registration and all such qualifications
and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the
sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holder’s or Holders’
Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or
such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders
joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within 15
days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration,
qualification or compliance, pursuant to this Section 2.11: (1) if Form S-3 is
not then available for such offering by the Holders; (2) if the Holders,
together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to
inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such
other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public (net of any
underwriters’ discounts or commissions) of less than $1 million; (3) if the
Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the President of
the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of
the Company, it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its
stockholders for such Form S-3 Registration to be effected at such time, in
which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3
registration statement for a period of not more than one hundred twenty (120)
days after receipt of the request of the Holder or Holders under this Section
2.11; provided, however, that the Company shall not utilize this right more than
once in any twelve month period and provided further that the Company shall not
register any securities for the account of itself or any other stockholder
during such one hundred twenty (120) day period (other than a registration
relating solely to the sale of securities of participants in a Company stock
plan, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization or transaction under
Rule 145 of the Securities Act, a registration on any form that does not include
substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a
registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities, or a
registration in which the only Common Stock being registered is Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being registered); (4)
if the Company has, within the twelve (12) month period preceding the date of
such request, already effected two registrations on Form S-3 for the Holders
pursuant to this Section 2.11; or (5) in any particular jurisdiction in which
the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general
consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or
compliance; or (6) during the period ending one hundred eighty (180) days after
the effective date of a registration statement subject to Section 2.2 hereof.
 
 
-10-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
(c) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a registration statement
covering the Registrable Securities and other securities so requested to be
registered as soon as practicable after receipt of the request or requests of
the Holders. All expenses incurred in connection with a registration requested
pursuant to Section 2.11, including (without limitation) all registration,
filing, qualification, printer’s and accounting fees and the reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel for the selling Holder or Holders and counsel for the
Company, but excluding any underwriters’ discounts or commissions associated
with Registrable Securities, shall be borne by the Company. Registrations
effected pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall not be counted as demands for
registration or registrations effected pursuant to Sections 2.1.
 
(d) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities
covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the
Company as part of their request made pursuant to this Section 2.11 and the
Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in
Section 2.11(a). The provisions of Section 2.1(b) shall be applicable to such
request (with the substitution of Section 2.11 for references to Section 2.1).
 
2.12.  Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to
register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2 may be assigned (but
only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a transferee or assignee of
such securities that (i) is a subsidiary, Affiliate, parent, partner, member,
limited partner, retired partner, retired member or stockholder of a Holder,
(ii) is a Holder’s family member or trust for the benefit of an individual
Holder, or (iii), after such assignment or transfer, holds at least 100,000
shares of Registrable Securities (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock
splits, stock dividends, combinations and other recapitalizations), provided:
(a) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with
written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the
securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned;
(b) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation the
provisions of Section 2.14 below; and (c) such assignment shall be effective
only if immediately following such transfer the further disposition of such
securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the right of a Holder to demand the registration
of Restricted Securities pursuant to Section 2.1(a) may only be transferred to
clause (i) or (ii) of the preceding sentence. For the purposes of determining
the number of shares of Registrable Securities held by a transferee or assignee,
the holdings of transferee or assignee (i) that is a subsidiary, parent,
partner, limited partner, retired partner, member, retired member or stockholder
of a Holder; (ii) that is an Affiliate of the Holder, which means with respect
to a limited liability company or a limited liability partnership, a fund or
entity managed by the same manager or managing member or general partner or
management company or by an entity controlling, controlled by, or under common
control with such manager or managing member or general partner or management
company, (iii) who is a Holder’s Immediate Family Member, or (iv) that is a
trust for the benefit of an individual Holder or such Holder’s Immediate Family
Member, shall be aggregated together and with those of the assigning Holder;
provided that all assignees and transferees who would not qualify individually
for assignment of registration rights shall have a single attorney-in-fact for
the purpose of exercising any rights, receiving notices or taking any action
under this Section 2.
 
 
-11-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
2.13.  Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date of
this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding, enter into
any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the
Company which would allow such holder or prospective holder (a) to include such
securities in any registration unless under the terms of such agreement, such
holder or prospective holder may include such securities in any such
registration only to the extent that the inclusion of such securities will not
reduce the amount of the Registrable Securities of the Holders that are included
or (b) to demand registration of any securities held by such holder or
prospective holder.
 
2.14.  Market Stand Off Agreement. Each Holder hereby agrees that it will not,
without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter, during the period
commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to the Company’s IPO and
ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter (such
period not to exceed one hundred eighty (l80) days) (i) lend, offer, pledge,
sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any
option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or
otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common
Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for
Common Stock held immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement for such offering, or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement
that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences
of ownership of the Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in
clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other
securities, in cash or otherwise. The foregoing provisions of this Section 2.14
shall apply only to the Company’s IPO, shall not apply to the sale of any shares
to an underwriter pursuant to an underwriting agreement, and shall only be
applicable to the Holders if all officers, directors and greater than one
percent (1%) stockholders of the Company enter into similar agreements. The
underwriters in connection with the Company’s IPO are intended third party
beneficiaries of this Section 2.14 and shall have the right, power and authority
to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto. Each Holder
further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by the
underwriters in the Company’s IPO that are consistent with this Section 2.14 or
that are necessary to give further effect thereto. Any discretionary waiver or
termination of the restrictions of any or all of such agreements by the Company
or the underwriters shall apply to all Holders subject to such agreements pro
rata based on the number of shares subject to such agreements.
 
 
-12-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop transfer
instructions with respect to the Registrable Securities of each Holder (and the
shares or securities of every other person subject to the foregoing restriction)
until the end of such period.
 
2.15.  Termination of Registration Rights.
 
(a) No Holder shall be entitled to exercise any right provided for in this
Section 2 after ten (10) years following the consummation of the IPO.
 
(b) The rights set forth in this Section 2 shall terminate as to any Holder,
when the Registrable Securities held by such Holder (together with any Affiliate
of such Holder with whom such Holder must aggregate its sales under SEC Rule
144) could be sold without restriction under SEC Rule 144(k) within a ninety
(90) day period.
 
3.  Information and Observer Rights. The Company shall deliver to Holders of
Warrants all information otherwise required to be delivered to the stockholders
of the Company under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.
 
4.  Other Rights. The Company agrees that, if the SEC, either before, on or
after the effective date of any registration statement filed pursuant hereto,
expresses the view that Goldman, Sach & Co. Inc. (“Goldman Sachs”) should be
deemed an “underwriter” in connection with the offering made pursuant to such
registration statement (including by way of a comment of the staff of the SEC on
such registration statement that is not resolved to the satisfaction of Goldman
Sachs), then (i) the Company shall cooperate with Goldman Sachs in allowing
Goldman Sachs to conduct customary “underwriter’s due diligence” with respect to
the Company and satisfy its obligations under the Securities Act in respect
thereof, and (ii) upon the request of Goldman Sachs, the Company shall:
 
(a)  Treat Goldman Sachs, both in its capacity as an underwriter and as a
selling shareholder in connection with the offering, together with each member
or limited or general partner thereof, each member or limited or general partner
of each such member or limited or general partner, each of their respective
Affiliates, officers, directors, stockholders, employees, advisors and agents
and each Person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the
Exchange Act) such Persons and each of their respective representatives, as
indemnified parties under Section 2.9 hereof.
 
(b)  Prepare and file with the SEC any amendments and/or supplements to the
registration statement and the prospectus included therein as may be necessary
to respond to the SEC’s view that Goldman Sachs should be deemed an
“underwriter” in connection with the offering and using its reasonable best
efforts to comply with any related requests of the SEC so that the registration
statement and the prospectus included therein may be used by Goldman Sachs in
connection with the disposition of Registrable Securities.
 
(c)  In the case of any underwritten offering of Registrable Securities (each,
an “Underwritten Offering”), cause the Company’s counsel to deliver to Goldman
Sachs a legal opinion, addressed to Goldman Sachs, in the same form and covering
the same matters as the legal opinion delivered by the Company’s counsel to the
underwriter or underwriters of such Underwritten Offering.
 
 
-13-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
(d)  In the case of any Underwritten Offering, cause the Company’s independent
public accountants to deliver to Goldman Sachs a “cold comfort” letter,
addressed to Goldman Sachs, in the same form and covering the same matters with
respect to the registration statement and the prospectus included therein as the
letter delivered by the Company’s independent public accountants to the
underwriter or underwriters of such Underwritten Offering.
 
(e)  Deliver to Goldman Sachs an officer’s certificate from the Chief Executive
Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company to the effect that:
 
(i)  (x) the registration statement and any amendments thereto, as of the
applicable effective date thereof, (y) any prospectus or prospectus supplement
included therein, at the applicable time of filing thereof, and (z) any other
information or materials conveyed to investors at the time of sale to such
investors, as of the time of such sale, do not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
made therein not misleading; and
 
(ii)  The financial statements, and other financial information included in (or
incorporated by reference into) the registration statement and any amendments
thereto and the prospectus and any prospectus supplement included therein fairly
present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations
and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented.

a Delaware corporation, at a Purchase Price of $0.35 per share upon (i)

to purchase duly executed and (ii) unless the Holder elects to exercise this
Warrant in a cashless exercise pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Warrant Agreement,
delivery to the Company of the payment of the Purchase Price in the manner set
forth in the Warrant Agreement. The number of shares of Common Stock that may be
purchased upon exercise of each Warrant and the Purchase Price are the number

This Warrant Certificate shall be exercisable, at the election of the Holder,
either in its entirety or in part from time to time. If this Warrant Certificate
shall be exercised in part, the Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon
surrender hereof, another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificate for the

Warrant Certificate shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed
for any purpose the holder of shares of Common Stock or of any other Securities
of the Company that may at any time be issued upon the exercise hereof, nor
shall anything contained in the Warrant Agreement or herein be construed to
confer upon the Holder hereof, as such, any of the rights of a Holder of a share
of Common Stock in the Company or any right to vote upon any matter submitted to
holders of shares of Common Stock at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold
consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of
stock, reclassification of Securities, change of par value, consolidation,
merger, conveyance, or otherwise) or, except as provided in the Warrant
Agreement, to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or
