proceeding for such purpose.

Company is unsuccessful in satisfying the preceding clause, to secure the inclusion for quotation on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market for such Registrable Securities.





h.    The Company shall reasonably cooperate with the Investors who hold Registrable Securities being offered pursuant to an effective

consecutive 365-day period, there shall be only two (2) Grace Periods and any such Grace Period shall not exceed forty-five (45) days (an Allowable Grace Period). For purposes of determining the length of a Grace Period above, the
Grace Period shall begin on and include the date the holders receive the notice referred to in clause (i) above and shall end on and include the later of the date the holders receive the notice referred to in clause (ii) above and the date referred
to in such notice.

It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of a particular Investor that such Investor shall furnish to the Company such
information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it and any other information as shall be reasonably requested by the Company and/or be required to timely

requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of any Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Investor has notified the Company in writing of such Investors election to exclude all of such Investors
Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.





c.    Each Investor
agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Sections 3(e) or 3(f) or upon receipt of any notice from the Company pursuant to Section 3(j), such Investor will immediately discontinue
disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement(s) covering such Registrable Securities until such Investors receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Sections 3(e) or 3(f) or
until the date specified in Section 3(j), and, if so directed by the Company, such Investor shall deliver to the Company (at the expense of the Company), or destroy all copies in such Investors possession of, any prospectus covering such
Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.

All reasonable expenses, other than underwriting discounts and brokerage commissions, incurred by the Company in connection

be paid by the Company.





6.    INDEMNIFICATION.





In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:





a.    To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold
harmless and defend each Investor who holds such Registrable Securities and the directors, officers, partners, employees, agents, and representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls, any Investor within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the 1934 Act) (each, an Indemnified Person), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, reasonable attorneys
fees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several (each a Claim and collectively, Claims), incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding,
investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency or body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an Indemnified Person is or may be a party thereto
(collectively, Indemnified Damages), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Final Prospectus (as defined below) (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement
thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state in such prospectus any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, or
(iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder, in each case relating to the offer or sale of the
Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, Violationsand each a Violation). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a): (i) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information
furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of the Investor, to whom such Indemnified Person is associated, expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement
thereto; (ii) shall not be available to the extent a Claim is based on, or results from, a failure of the Investor, to whom such Indemnified Person is associated, to deliver or to cause to be delivered in a timely manner the prospectus made
available by the Company, if such




6




---




prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c);
(iii) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without an unconditional release of the Company and all of its controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives, or
without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and (iv) shall not be available to the extent a Claim is based on the failure of the Investor, to whom such Indemnified Person is associated, to
comply with the covenants and agreements applicable to such Investor contained in this Agreement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive
the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9.





b.    In connection with any Registration Statement in which an Investor is participating, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, such Investor will, and hereby does, severally and not jointly, hold harmless
and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, employees, agents and representatives, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement, and each Person, if any, who
controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (each a Company Indemnified Person and, together with an Indemnified Person, an Indemnified Party), against any Claim or Indemnified
Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages (i) 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 information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Investor expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any
such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, (ii) is based on, or results from, a failure of the Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered in a timely manner the prospectus made available by the Company, if such prospectus was timely made
available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c), or (iii) to the extent a Claim is based on, or arises in connection with, the failure of the Investor to comply with the covenants and agreements applicable to such Investor contained in this
Agreement; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without an unconditional release of such Investor and
all of its controlling persons, employees and agents, or without the prior written consent of such Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, however, that the Investor shall be liable under
this Section 6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Investor received or to be received as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such
indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Company Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9.





c.    The foregoing indemnity agreements contained in Sections 6(a) and (b)
are subject to the condition that, insofar as they relate to any Violation made in a preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the amended prospectus on file with the SEC at the time the Registration Statement in question becomes
effective or in an amended prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) promulgated under the 1933 Act (the Final Prospectus), such indemnity agreements shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Party if a copy of
the Final Prospectus was furnished or made available in a timely manner to the




7




---




Investor, to whom the Indemnified Party is associated, and was not furnished in a
timely manner at or prior to the time required by the 1933 Act to the Person asserting the Claim against the Indemnified Party.





d.    Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding)
involving a Claim, such Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 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 control of the defense thereof with counsel selected by the indemnifying party
and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party (or, if there is more than one Indemnified Party, a majority in interest of the Indemnified Parties); provided, however, that an Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its
own counsel with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Party and 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 Company shall pay reasonable fees for only one separate legal counsel
for all of the Indemnified Persons, and such legal counsel shall be selected by the Investors holding a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement to which the Claim relates. The Indemnified Party shall
cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party
that relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. Following indemnification as provided for
hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party with respect to all third parties and Persons relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the
indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is
prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.





e.    The indemnification
required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.





f.    The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or
similar right of any Indemnified Party against the indemnifying party or others and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.





7.    CONTRIBUTION.





If the indemnification provided for in Section 6 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Party under subsection (a) or (b) thereof in respect of any Claim or Indemnified Damages, then each indemnifying party
shall contribute to the amount paid or




8




---




payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Claim or Indemnified Damages in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Investor on the other in connection with the statements or omissions or other matters which resulted in such Claim or Indemnified Damages, as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, in the case of an untrue statement, whether the untrue statement relates to information supplied by or on behalf of the Company on the one
hand or an Investor on the other and the parties relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement. The Company and the Investors agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if all Investors were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations
referred to above in this Section 7. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the Claims or Indemnified Damages referred to above in this Section 7 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, no Investor shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net amount of proceeds
received or receivable by the Investor from the sale of the Registrable Securities. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Contribution (together with any indemnification or other obligations under this Agreement) by any Investor (including any Indemnified Party associated with such Investor) shall be limited in amount to the
net amount of proceeds received or receivable by such Investor from the sale of the Registrable Securities.





8.    REPORTS UNDER THE 1934 ACT.





With a view to making available to
the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investors to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration (Rule
144), the Company agrees to:





a.    file with the SEC in a timely
manner and make and keep available all reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1934 Act so long as (i) the Company remains subject to such requirements (it being understood that nothing herein shall limit the Companys
obligations under Section 4(c) of the Securities Purchase Agreement) and (ii) the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and





b.    furnish to each Investor so long as such Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by
the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 and the 1934 Act, (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 with the SEC, and
(iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144.

9.    ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.





The rights under this Agreement shall be assignable by the Investors to any Permitted Transferee (as defined below) of all or
any portion of Registrable Securities if: (i) the Investor agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company promptly after such assignment; (ii) the Company is,
promptly after such transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of (a) the name and address of such transferee or assignee and (b) the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned; (iii)
immediately following such transfer or assignment the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws; and (iv) at or before the time the Company receives the
written notice contemplated by clause (ii) of this sentence the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions contained in this Agreement; provided, however, that no such
assignment or transfer shall increase the obligations of the Company hereunder. For purposes hereof, Permitted Transferee shall mean any Person who (a) is (i) an accredited investor as that term is defined in Rule
501(a) of Regulation D under the 1933 Act; or (ii) a partner of such Investor, an affiliate of such Investor or a partner of any such affiliate or any Person controlling, controlled by, or under common control with, such Investor; and (b) is a
transferee of the Registrable Securities as permitted under the securities laws of the United States and any other jurisdiction of the United States.





10.    AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.





Provisions of this Agreement may be amended or modified 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 Investors who then hold at least a majority of the Registrable Securities. Any amendment, modification or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 10 shall be binding upon each Investor and the Company. No such amendment, modification or
waiver shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less than all of the holders of the Registrable Securities.





11.    MISCELLANEOUS.





a.    A
Person is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns or is deemed to own of record such Registrable Securities. If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two or more Persons with
respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from the registered owner of such Registrable Securities.





b.    Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be
in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the
sending party); or (iii) one business day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same. The addresses and facsimile numbers for such communications shall be:
