Registrable Securities not already covered by an existing and effective
Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant
to Rule 415. The Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 (unless the Company
is not then eligible to register for resale of the Registrable Securities on
Form S-3, in which case such registration shall be another appropriate form in
accordance herewith) and shall contain (unless otherwise directed by the Holders
and except if otherwise required pursuant to written comments received from the
Commission upon a review of such Registration Statement or pursuant to judicial
and SEC interpretations) the "Plan of Distribution" attached hereto as Annex A.
The Company shall cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective
under the Securities Act as soon as reasonably possible but, in any event, no
later than the Effectiveness Date, and shall use its best reasonable efforts to
keep the Registration Statement effective under the Securities Act until the
date which is two years after the Effectiveness Date for such Registration
Statement, or such earlier date on which the Holders are able to resell all of
their respective Registrable Securities without volume restrictions pursuant to

            (b) If for any reason the Commission does not permit all of the
Shares and all Warrant Shares to be included in the Registration Statement filed
pursuant to Section 2(a), or for any other reason any Registrable Securities are
not permitted by the Commission to be included in a Registration Statement filed
under this Agreement, then the Company shall prepare and file as soon as
possible after the date on which the Commission shall indicate as being the
first date or time that such filing may be made, but in any event by the 30th
day following such date, an additional Registration Statement covering the
resale of all Registrable Securities not already covered by an existing and
effective Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous
basis pursuant to Rule 415. Each such Registration Statement shall contain
(except if otherwise required pursuant to written comments received from the
Commission upon a review of such Registration Statement or pursuant to judicial
and SEC interpretations) the "Plan of Distribution" attached hereto as Annex A.
The Company shall cause each such Registration Statement to be declared
effective under the Securities Act as soon as reasonably possible but, in any
event, no later than its Effectiveness Date, and shall use its reasonable best


                                       3
<PAGE>

efforts to keep such Registration Statement effective under the Securities Act
during the entire Effectiveness Period.

            (c) Subject to the last sentence of this paragraph (c), if: (i) a
Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to its Filing Date (if the
Company files a Registration Statement without affording the Holders the
opportunity to review and comment on the same as required by Section 3(a)
hereof, the Company shall not be deemed to have satisfied this clause (i)), or
(ii) a Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission on or
prior to its required Effectiveness Date, or (iii) after its Effective Date,
without regard for the reason thereunder or efforts therefor, such Registration
Statement ceases for any reason to be effective and available to the Holders as
to all Registrable Securities to which it is required to cover at any time prior
to the expiration of its Effectiveness Period for more than an aggregate of
thirty (30) Trading Days (which need not be consecutive) (any such failure or
breach being referred to as an "EVENT," and for purposes of clauses (i) or (ii)
the date on which such Event occurs, or for purposes of clause (iii) the date
which such thirty (30) Trading Day-period is exceeded, being referred to as
"EVENT DATE"; provided, however, if the Registration Statement is timely filed
by the Filing Date but the Company is informed by the staff of the Commission
that the filing is rejected or that the Commission will not perform the initial
screening because the filing did not include the 2003 audited financials, or did
not incorporate the 2003 financials by reference or failed to include the
auditors' consent with respect thereto, then the Filing Date shall be extended
to March 31, 2004; then, in addition to any other rights available to the
Holders under this Agreement or under applicable law: on each monthly
anniversary of each such Event Date thereof (if the applicable Event shall not
have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Company
shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a
penalty, equal to 1% for the first month (1.5% thereafter) of the aggregate
Investment Amount paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The
liquidated damages pursuant to the preceding sentence shall apply and be payable
on a pro rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event. If
the Company fails to pay any liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full
within seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon
at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that
is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily from
the date such liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such
interest thereon, are paid in full. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this paragraph (c), the Company shall not be required to make any payments under
this paragraph (c) in the event that the subject Event or Event date, or the
failure to cure such Event or Event Date, is due to the Company's postponement
(and the Company is hereby permitted to postpone) for a maximum of seventy-five
(75) days the filing or the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, by the
Company's furnishing to the Holders a certificate signed by the Chief Executive
Officer of the Company stating the Company is in the process of filing a
registration statement or proxy statement with respect to an acquisition or
disposition and as a result thereof, the registration required by this agreement
will be materially detrimental to the Company and its shareholders, provided,
however, that the Company may use this right to postpone such filing or
effectiveness only once during any twelve (12) month period.

         3. Registration Procedures.

            In connection with the Company's registration obligations hereunder,
the Company shall:

                                       4
<PAGE>

            (a) Not less than five (5) Trading Days prior to the filing of a
Registration Statement or any related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement
thereto, the Company shall (i) furnish to the Holders copies of all such
documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review of
such Holders (and changes (if any) to correct appropriate information about the
Holder), and (ii) cause its officers and directors, counsel and independent
certified public accountants to respond to such inquiries as shall be necessary,
in the reasonable opinion of respective counsel, to conduct a reasonable
investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act, provided that such
investigation shall not delay filing as required herein. The Company shall not
file a Registration Statement or any such Prospectus or any amendments or
supplements thereto that does not contain the disclosure containing such Holder
as a "Selling Stockholder" as provided to the Company by such Holder in
connection therewith.

            (b) (i) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments,
including post-effective amendments, to each Registration Statement and the
Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such
Registration Statement continuously effective as to the applicable Registrable
Securities for its Effectiveness Period and prepare and file with the Commission
such additional Registration Statements in order to register for resale under
the Securities Act all of the Registrable Securities; (ii) cause the related
Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement,
and as so supplemented or amended to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; (iii)
respond as promptly as reasonably possible to any comments received from the
Commission with respect to each Registration Statement or any amendment thereto
and, as promptly as reasonably possible provide the Holders true and complete
copies of all correspondence from and to the Commission relating to such
Registration Statement that would not result in the disclosure to the Holders of
material and non-public information concerning the Company; and (iv) comply in
all material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act with respect to the Registration Statements and the disposition of all
Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement.

            (c) If during the Effectiveness Period, the number of Registrable
Securities held by Holders having continuing registration rights hereunder at
any time exceeds the number of such Holders' Shares of Common Stock then
registered in a Registration Statement, then the Company shall file as soon as
reasonably practicable, but in any case prior to the applicable Filing Date, an
additional Registration Statement covering the resale by the Holders of such
additional Shares not already registered.

            (d) Notify the Holders of Registrable Securities to be sold (which
notice shall, pursuant to clauses (ii) through (v) hereof, shall be accompanied
by an instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite
changes have been made) as promptly as reasonably possible (and, in the case of
(i)(A) below, not less than three Trading Days prior to such filing) and (if
requested by any such Person) confirm such notice in writing no later than
promptly following the day (i)(A) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement
or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement is proposed to be filed;
(B) when the Commission notifies the Company whether there will be a "review" of
such Registration Statement and whenever the Commission comments in writing on
such Registration Statement (the Company shall provide true and complete copies


                                       5
<PAGE>

thereof and all written responses thereto to each of the Holders); and (C) with
respect to each Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the
same has become effective; (ii) of any request by the Commission or any other
Federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to a
Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information; (iii) of the
issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a
Registration Statement covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or the
initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the
Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification
or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in
any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such
purpose; and (v) of the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes
the financial statements included in a Registration Statement ineligible for
inclusion therein or any statement made in such Registration Statement or
Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by
reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to such
Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of
such Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

            (e) Use its reasonable best efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if
issued, obtain the withdrawal of (i) any order suspending the effectiveness of a
Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or
exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in
any jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable moment.

            (f) Furnish to each Holder, without charge, at least one conformed
copy of each Registration Statement and each amendment thereto, all financial
statements and schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated herein by reference (to the extent requested by such Holder), and
all exhibits to the extent requested by such Person (including those previously
furnished) promptly after the filing of such documents with the Commission.

            (g) Promptly deliver to each Holder, without charge, as many copies
of each Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of prospectus) and each
amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons may reasonably request. The
Company hereby consents to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or
supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders in connection with the
offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus and
any amendment or supplement thereto.

            (h) Prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities by a
Holder, to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders in
connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such
registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale
under the securities or Blue Sky laws of all jurisdictions within the United
States as any Holder requests in writing, to keep each such registration or
qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period
and to do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the
disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by the
Registration Statements.

            (i) Cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation
and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be delivered
to a transferee pursuant to the Registration Statements, which certificates
shall be free, to the extent permitted by the Purchase Agreement, of all


                                       6
<PAGE>

restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable Securities to be in such
denominations and registered in such names as any such Holders may request.

            (j) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Sections
3(d)(ii) through (v), as promptly as reasonably possible, prepare a supplement
or amendment, including a post-effective amendment, to the affected Registration
Statements or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and file any
other required document so that, as thereafter delivered, neither a Registration
Statement nor such Prospectus will contain an untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading and that the event that resulted in the suspension of
such Prospectus is otherwise cured. If the Company notifies the Holders in
accordance with Sections 3(d)(ii) through (v) to suspend the use of any
Prospectus until the changes to such requisite Prospectus have been made, then
the Holders shall suspend use of such Prospectus. The Company will ensure that
the use of the Prospectus may be resumed as promptly as is practicable. The
Company agrees and acknowledges that any periods during which the Holders are
required to discontinue the disposition of the Registrable Securities hereunder
shall be subject to the provisions of Section 2(c).

            (k) Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the
Commission.

            (l) The Company may require, at any time prior to the 5th Trading
Day prior to the Filing Date, each Holder to furnish to the Company a completed
questionnaire in a standard form customary in similar transactions (a "SELLING
HOLDER QUESTIONNAIRE"). The Company shall not be required to include the
Registrable Securities of a Holder in a Registration Statement and shall not be
required to pay any liquidated or other damages under Section 2(c) hereof to
such Holder who fails to furnish to the Company a fully completed Selling Holder
Questionnaire at least three (3) Trading Days prior to the Filing Date (subject
to the requirements set forth in Section 3(a)).

         4. Registration Expenses. All fees and expenses incident to the
performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company shall be borne
by the Company, whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to a
Registration Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing
sentence shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees

requested by the Holders), (ii) printing expenses (including, without
limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities and of

with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
(including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and
employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual
audit and the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the
Registrable Securities on any securities exchange as required hereunder.

         5. Indemnification.

            (a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall,
notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless
each Holder, the officers, directors, agents, investment advisors, partners,
members and employees of each of them, each Person who controls any such Holder
(within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, agents and employees of each such
controlling Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including,
without limitation, reasonable costs of preparation and reasonable attorneys'
fees) and expenses (collectively, "LOSSES"), as incurred, arising out of or
relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained
in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any form of prospectus or in
any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising
out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in
the case of any Prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light
of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except to the
extent, but only to the extent, that (1) such untrue statements or omissions are
based solely upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the
Company by such Holder expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such
information relates to such Holder or such Holder's proposed method of
distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved
in writing by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement, such
Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto
(it being understood that the Holder has approved Annex A hereto for this
purpose) or (2) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type specified
in Section 3(d)(ii) through (v), the use by such Holder of an outdated or
defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing that
the Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder
of the Advice (as defined below) or an amended or supplemented Prospectus, but
only if and to the extent that following the receipt of the Advice or the
amended or supplemented Prospectus, the misstatement or omission giving rise to
such Loss would have been corrected. The Company shall notify the Holders
promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding of which the
Company is aware arising from or in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

            (b) Indemnification by Holders. Each Holder shall, severally and not
jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers,
agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning
of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the
directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling Persons, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as
incurred, arising solely out of or based solely upon: (i) such Holder's failure
to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act or


                                       8
<PAGE>

(ii) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration
Statement, any Prospectus, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or
supplement thereto, or arising solely out of or based solely upon any omission
of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent that,
(1) such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information
regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder
expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to
such Holder or such Holder's proposed method of distribution of Registrable
Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Holder
expressly for use in the Registration Statement (it being understood that the
Holder has approved Annex A hereto for this purpose), such Prospectus or such
form of Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (2) in the case
of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 3(d)(ii) through
(v), the use by such Holder of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the
Company has notified such Holder in writing that the Prospectus is outdated or
defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder of the Advice or an amended or
supplemented Prospectus, but only if and to the extent that following the
receipt of the Advice or the amended or supplemented Prospectus, the
misstatement or omission giving rise to such Loss would have been corrected. In
no event shall the liability of any selling Holder hereunder be greater in
amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon
the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification
obligation.

            (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding shall
be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an
"INDEMNIFIED PARTY"), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person
from whom indemnity is sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") in writing, and the
Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all
fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided, that
the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement,
except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court
of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or
further review) that such failure shall have proximately and materially
adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

            An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel
in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees
and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party
or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such
fees and expenses; (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to
assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named
parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both
such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party
shall reasonably believe based upon the advice of counsel that a conflict of
interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such
Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified
Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ
separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying
Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel
(one law firm) shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party). The
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding
effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the
Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of


                                       9
<PAGE>

which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims
that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.

            All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party subject to
indemnification under 5(a) (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent
incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding
in a manner not inconsistent with these Sections) shall be paid to the
Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten (10) Trading Days of written notice
thereof to the Indemnifying Party (regardless of whether it is ultimately
determined that an Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification
hereunder; provided, that the Indemnifying Party may require such Indemnified
Party to undertake to reimburse all such fees and expenses to the extent it is
finally judicially determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to
indemnification hereunder).

            (d) Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section 5(a)
or 5(b) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party (by reason of unenforceability
due to public policy or otherwise), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of
indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and
Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that
resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question,
including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission
or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to
information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the
parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or
payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject
to the limitations set forth in Section 5(c), any reasonable attorneys' or other
reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any
Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or
expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to
such party in accordance with its terms.

            The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account
the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(d), no Holder shall be required
to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the
proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable
Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that such
Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission or other event under 5(a) or
5(b), as the case may be, to which such contribution applies.

            The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section
are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the
Indemnified Parties.

         6. Miscellaneous.

            (a) Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company or by a
Holder, of any of their obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the
Company, as the case may be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all
rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including recovery of damages,
will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The
Company and each Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate
compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the
provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agree that, in the event of any
action for specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the
defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

            (b) No Piggyback on Registrations. Except as and to the extent
specified in Schedule 6(b) hereto, neither the Company nor any of its security
holders (other than the Holders in such capacity pursuant hereto) may include
securities of the Company in a Registration Statement other than the Registrable
Securities, and the Company shall not after the date hereof enter into any
agreement providing any such right to any of its security holders. Except as and
to the extent specified in Schedule 3.1(g) of the Purchase Agreement, the
Company has not previously entered into any agreement granting any registration
rights with respect to any of its securities to any Person which have not been
fully satisfied..

            (c) Compliance. Each Holder covenants and agrees that (i) it will
comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as
applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to
the Registration Statement; and (ii) it has no present plan, intention or
understanding and has made no arrangement to sell the Shares at any
predetermined time or for any predetermined price (other than such Holder's
right to sell the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement
filed pursuant hereto).

            (d) Discontinued Disposition. Each Holder agrees by its acquisition
of such Registrable Securities that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company
of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 3(d), such
Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities
under the Registration Statement until such Holder's receipt of the copies of
the supplemented Prospectus and/or amended Registration Statement or until it is
advised in writing (the "ADVICE") by the Company that the use of the applicable
Prospectus may be resumed, and, in either case, has received copies of any
additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference in such Prospectus or Registration Statement. The
Company will use its best efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may
be resumed as promptly as practicable. The Company may provide appropriate stop
orders to enforce the provisions of this paragraph. The Company agrees and
acknowledges that any periods during which Holders are required to discontinue
the disposition of the Registrable Securities hereunder shall be subject to the
provisions of Section 2(c).

            (e) Piggy-Back Registrations. If at any time during the
Effectiveness Period there is not an effective Registration Statement covering
all of the Registrable Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and
file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for
its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its


                                       11
<PAGE>

equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under
the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to
be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or
equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee
benefit plans, then the Company shall send to each Holder written notice of such
determination and, if within fifteen days after receipt of such notice, any such
Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such
registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities (not
already covered by an effective Registration Statement) such holder requests to
be registered, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all
holders of registration rights or as provided in prior registration agreements.

            (f) Amendments and Waivers. No provision of this Agreement may be
waived or amended and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions
hereof may not be given except in a written instrument signed by the Company and
each of the Holders. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision,
condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing
waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any
other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or
omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair
the exercise of any such right.

            (g) Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or
deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be delivered as
set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

            (h) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of each of
the parties and shall inure to the benefit of each Holder. The Company may not
assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of
each Holder of then-outstanding Registrable Securities. Each Holder may assign
their respective rights hereunder in the manner and to the Persons as permitted
under the Purchase Agreement.

            (i) Execution and Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be
an original and, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same
Agreement. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile
transmission, such signature shall create a valid binding obligation of the
party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with
the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature were the original
thereof.

            (j) Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction,
validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by
and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of
New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each
party agrees that all Proceedings to resolve any dispute concerning the
interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective
Affiliates, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and
federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan (the "NEW
YORK COURTS") although depositions may be taken in other places. Each party
hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York


                                       12
<PAGE>

Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith
or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby
irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Proceeding, any claim that
it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any New York Court, or that
such Proceeding has been commenced in an improper or inconvenient forum. Each
party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents
to process being served in any such Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via
registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery)
to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement
and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of
process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in
any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Each party
hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, any and all right to trial by jury in any Proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. If either
party shall commence a Proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Agreement,
then the prevailing party in such Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other
party for its attorney's fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the
investigation, preparation and prosecution of such Proceeding.

            (k) Cumulative Remedies. The remedies provided herein are cumulative
and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

            (l) Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of
this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions,
covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and
effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties
hereto shall use their reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative
means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated
by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and
declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the
remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of
such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

            (m) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

            (n) Independent Nature of Holders' Obligations and Rights. The
obligations of each Holder hereunder are several and not joint with the
obligations of any other Holder hereunder, and no Holder shall be responsible in
any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Holder hereunder.
The decision of each Holder to acquire Registrable Securities pursuant to the
Transaction Documents has been made independently of any other Holder. Nothing
contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at any closing,
and no action taken by any Holder pursuant hereto or thereto, 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 acknowledges that no other Holder
has acted as agent for such Holder in connection with making its investment
hereunder and that no Holder will be acting as agent of such Holder in
connection with monitoring its investment in the Securities or enforcing its
rights under the Transaction Documents. Each Holder shall be entitled to protect
and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of
this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary (but may be permissible) for any
other Holder to be joined as an additional party in any Proceeding for such
purpose.

                                                                         Annex A

                              Plan of Distribution

         The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, assignees
and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their
shares of Common Stock registered hereunder on any stock exchange, market or
trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions.
These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may
use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

o        ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the
         broker-dealer solicits investors;

o        block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares
         as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as
         principal to facilitate the transaction;

o        purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the
         broker-dealer for its account;

o        an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable
         exchange;

o        privately negotiated transactions;

o        settlement of short sales (other than short sales established prior to
         the effectiveness of the Registration Statement to which this
         Prospectus is a part);

o        broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a
         specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

o        a combination of any such methods of sale; and

o        any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

         The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the
Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

         Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for
other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive
commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer
acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be
negotiated. The Selling Stockholders do not expect these commissions and
discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.

         The Selling Stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a
security interest in some or all of the Shares or Warrant Shares owned by them
and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the
pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of Common Stock from time
to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under
Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the


<PAGE>

list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other
successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.

         Upon the Company being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder
that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the
sale of Common Stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange
distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a
supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule
424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such Selling
Stockholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares
involved, (iii) the price at which such the shares of Common Stock were sold,
(iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such
broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not
conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by
reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction.
In addition, upon the Company being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder
that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of Common Stock, a
supplement to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with
applicable securities law.

         The Selling Stockholders also may transfer the shares of Common Stock
in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other
successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of
this prospectus.

         The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are
involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the
meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any
commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the
resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting
commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Stockholder has
represented and warranted to the Company that it does not have any agreement or
understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Common
Stock.

         The Company is required to pay the Company's fees and expenses incident
to the registration of the shares. The Company has agreed to indemnify the
Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act.

         The Selling Stockholders and other persons participating in the
distribution of the shares offered under this prospectus are subject to the
applicable requirements of Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act in
connection with sales of the shares.
