SECTION 2. REGISTRATION.

     2.1   PIGGYBACK REGISTRATIONS. The Company shall notify all Holders of
Registrable Securities in writing at least fifteen (15) days prior to the filing
of any registration statement under the Securities Act for purposes of a public
offering of securities of the Company (including, but not limited to,
registration statements relating to secondary offerings of securities of the
Company, but excluding Special Registration Statements) and will afford each
such Holder an opportunity to include in such registration statement all or part
of such Registrable Securities held by such Holder as set forth herein. Each
Holder desiring to include in any such registration statement all or any part of
the Registrable Securities held by such Holder shall, within fifteen (15) days
after the above-described notice from the Company, so notify the Company in
writing. Such

                                       2
<PAGE>   3


notice shall state the intended method of disposition of the Registrable
Securities by such Holder as set forth herein. If a Holder decides not to
include all of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement
thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have
the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration
statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company with respect
to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth
herein.

           (a) UNDERWRITING. If the registration statement under which the
Company gives notice under this Section 2.1 is for an underwritten offering, the
Company shall so advise the Holders of Registrable Securities. In such event,
the right of any such Holder to be included in a registration pursuant to this
Section 2.1 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 Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an
underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters
selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, if the underwriter determines in good faith that
marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be
underwritten, the number of shares that may be included in the underwriting
shall be allocated first, to the Company; second to all stockholders who are
entitled to participate and who have elected to participate in the offering
pursuant to the terms of the Prior Registration Rights Agreements on a pro rata
basis based upon the total number of shares held by each such participating
stockholder that are subject to piggyback registration rights pursuant thereto;
third, to all stockholders who are entitled to participate and who have elected
to participate in the offering pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, on a pro
rata basis based upon the total number of shares held by each such participating
stockholder that are subject to piggyback registration rights pursuant hereto;
and fourth, to any other stockholder of the Company on a pro rata basis. If any
Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect
to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter,
delivered at least ten (10) business days prior to the effective date of the
registration statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from
such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration. For any
Holder which is a partnership or corporation, the partners, stockholders,
subsidiaries, parents and affiliates of such Holder, or the estates and family
members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit
of any of the foregoing persons shall be deemed to be a single "Holder", and any
pro rata reduction with respect to such "Holder" shall be based upon the
aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities
and individuals included in such "Holder", as defined in this sentence.

           (b) RIGHT TO TERMINATE REGISTRATION. The Company shall have the right
to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 2.1
prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has
elected to include securities in such registration. The Registration Expenses of
such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with
Section 2.2 hereof.

                                       3
<PAGE>   4

     2.2   EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. All Registration Expenses incurred in
connection with any registration, qualification or compliance hereunder shall be
borne by the Company. All Selling Expenses incurred in connection with any
registrations hereunder, shall be borne by the Holders of the securities so
registered pro rata on the basis of the number of shares so registered.

     2.3   OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. Subject to Section 2.1(b), whenever the
Company elects 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 all commercially reasonable
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 up to ninety (90)
days or, if earlier, until the Holder or Holders have completed the distribution
related thereto.

           (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 for the period set forth in paragraph (a) above.

           (c) Furnish to the Holders such number 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 commercially reasonable 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.

           (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(s) of such offering. Each Holder
participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its
obligations under such an agreement.

           (f) Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event
as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as
then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing.
The Company will use reasonable efforts to amend or supplement such


                                       4
<PAGE>   5

prospectus in order to cause such prospectus not to include any 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 not misleading in light of
the circumstances then existing.

           (g) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to furnish, on the date
that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if
such securities are being sold through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated as of
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 letter dated as of 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.

     2.4   TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. All registration rights granted
under this Section 2 shall terminate and be of no further force and effect seven
(7) years after the date of the Company's Initial Offering. In addition, a
Holder's registration rights shall expire if (a) collectively, the Holders hold
less than 1% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock and (b) all Registrable
Securities held by such Holder (and its affiliates, partners, members and former
members) may be sold under Rule 144 during any ninety (90) day period.

     2.5   DELAY OF REGISTRATION; FURNISHING INFORMATION.

           (a) No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction
restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of any
controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or
implementation of this Section 2.

           (b) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the
Company to take any action pursuant to Section 2.1 that the selling Holders
shall furnish to the Company such information regarding themselves, the
Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of disposition of
such securities as shall be required to effect the registration of their
Registrable Securities.

     2.6   INDEMNIFICATION. In the event any Registrable Securities are included
in a registration statement under Section 2.1:

           (a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the
partners, officers and directors of 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 losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to
which they 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 thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a
"Violation") by the Company: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including
any preliminary

                                       5
<PAGE>   6

prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or
supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, or (iii) any Violation or alleged Violation by the
Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any
rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any
state securities law in connection with the offering covered by such
registration statement (provided, however, that the Company will not be required
to indemnify any of the foregoing persons on account of any losses, claims,
damages or liabilities arising from a Violation if and to the extent that such
Violation was made in a preliminary prospectus and was corrected in a subsequent
prospectus that was required by law to be delivered to the person making the
claim with respect to which indemnification is sought hereunder, and such
subsequent prospectus was made available by the Company to permit delivery of
such prospectus in a timely manner, and such subsequent prospectus was so
delivered to the Holder making the claim for indemnification); and the Company
will pay as incurred to each such Holder, partner, officer, director,
underwriter or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity
agreement contained in this Section 2.6(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 such Holder, partner, officer, director, underwriter
or controlling person of such Holder.

           (b) Each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder
are included in the securities as to which such registration qualifications or
compliance is being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of
its directors, its officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company
within the meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter and any other Holder
selling securities under such registration statement or any of such other
Holder's partners, directors or officers or any person who controls such Holder,
against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which
the Company or any such director, officer, controlling person, underwriter or
other such Holder, or partner, director, officer or controlling person of such
other Holder 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 under an instrument duly executed by such Holder and
stated to be specifically for use in connection with such registration; and each
such Holder will pay as incurred any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
by the Company or any such director, officer, controlling person, underwriter or
other Holder, or partner, officer, director or controlling person of such other
Holder in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action if it is judicially determined that there was such a
Violation; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this
Section 2.6(b) shall not apply to amounts


                                       6
<PAGE>   7

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 Section 2.6 exceed the net proceeds from the offering
received by such Holder.

           (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section
2.6 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 2.6, 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 shall
have the right to retain one counsel of their own, with the reasonable fees and
expenses of such counsel 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. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party
within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if materially
prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such
indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section
2.6, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party
will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party
otherwise than under this Section 2.6.

           (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.6 is held
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party
with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein,
the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party
thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable law contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss,
claim, damage or liability 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 Violation(s) that resulted in such
loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the
indemnified party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or the 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, that in no event shall any contribution by a
Holder hereunder exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such
Holder.

           (e) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 2.6
shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a
registration statement and the termination of this Agreement. No Indemnifying
Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the
consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter
into any settlement which does not include as


                                       7
<PAGE>   8

an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such
Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or
litigation.

     2.7   ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights to cause the Company to
register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement may be assigned by a
Holder to a transferee or assignee of Registrable Securities to which (a) there
is transferred to such transferee no less than twenty thousand (20,000) shares
of Registrable Securities, appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock splits,
stock dividends, subdivisions, reverse splits and similar events, (b) there is
transferred to such transferee at least ten percent (10%) of the shares of
Registrable Securities held by the Holder, (c) such transferee is an affiliate,
subsidiary or parent company, family member or family trust for the benefit of a
party hereto or (d) such transferee or transferees are partners of a Holder, who
agree to act through a single representative; provided, however, (i) the
transferor shall, within ten (10) days after such transfer, furnish to the
Company 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 and (ii) such transferee shall agree to be subject to all restrictions
set forth in this Agreement.

     2.8   AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. Any provision of this Section 2 may
be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a
particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the
written consent of the Company and the Holders of a majority of the Registrable
Securities then outstanding. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with
this Section 2.8 shall be binding upon each Holder and the Company. By
acceptance of any benefits under this Section 2, Holders of Registrable
Securities hereby agree to be bound by the provisions hereunder.

     2.9   RULE 144 REPORTING. With a view to making available to the Holders
the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the
sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the
Company agrees to use its best efforts to:

           (a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood and defined in SEC Rule 144 or any similar or analogous rule
promulgated under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date of
the Initial Offering;

           (b) File with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act; and

           (c) So long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to
such Holder forthwith upon request: a written statement by the Company as to its
compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144 of the Securities
Act, and of the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such
reporting requirements); a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of
the Company; and such other reports and documents as a Holder may reasonably
request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing it to
sell any such securities without registration.

similar breach, default or noncompliance thereafter occurring. It is further
agreed that any waiver, permit, consent, or approval of any kind or character on
any Holder's part of any breach, default or noncompliance under the Agreement or
