Amendments to the Registration Rights Agreement.



a.)

The Company and each Holder hereby amend the first sentence of Section 2(a) of the Registration Rights Agreement by inserting immediately following Rule 415 as follows:

; provided, however, that if 130% of the Registrable Securities hereunder shall equal or exceed 30% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company on the actual filing date of the initial Registration Statement, the initial Registration Statement shall register a number of shares of Common Stock which is equal to approximately 18.7% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company on such actual filing date, and the remaining Registrable Securities shall be subject to Section 3(c).  In such event, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered for each Holder shall be reduced pro-rata among all Holders and each Holder shall have the right to designate which of its Registrable Securities shall be omitted from the initial Registration Statement.

b.)

The Company and each Holder hereby amend Section 3(c) of the Registration Rights Agreement by inserting at the end of such Section as follows:

In addition, in the event that 130% of the Registrable Securities are not included in the initial Registration Statement as contemplated by the proviso regarding Registrable Securities in Section 2(a) above, then, upon the written request of Holders holding at least 51% of the then outstanding Registrable Securities, the Company shall file as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than the applicable Filing Date, an additional Registration Statement covering the resale by the Holders of not less than the difference between 130% of the Registrable Securities and the number of Registrable Securities included on the initial Registration Statement.

No Person has any right to cause the Company to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any securities of the Company.  The Company shall not file any other registration statements until all Registrable Securities are registered pursuant to a Registration Statement that is declared effective by the Commission, provided that this Section 6(b) shall not prohibit the Company from filing amendments to registration statements already filed.



d.)

The Company and each Holder hereby agree to amend Schedule 6(b) to the Registration Rights Agreement by inserting at the end of such Schedule as follows:



On the initial Registration Statement to be filed in connection with the Transaction Documents, the Company will register (i) 200,000 shares of Common Stock which has been issued to Patrick Doherty and (ii) 75,000 shares of Common Stock which has been issued to the Investor Relations Group.

Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at any closing, and no action taken by any Holder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holders are in any way acting in concert with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Holder shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights, including, but not limited to, the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Holder to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
