                           statement  in  form  reasonably  acceptable  to  such
                           Investor and its counsel, and

                                    (ii)   "comfort"   letters   signed  by  the
                           Company's  independent  public  accountants  who have

                           Institute of Certified Public  Accountants,  covering
                           such matters as are  customarily  covered in opinions

reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least 12
months,  but not more than 18 months,  beginning  with the first month after the
effective date of the  registration  statement,  which earnings  statement shall
satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

                  4.2 It shall be a condition  precedent to the  obligations  of
the  Company to take any action  pursuant  to this  Agreement  in respect of the
Registrable  Securities of any Investor that such Investor  shall furnish to the
Company such information regarding itself and the Registrable Securities held by
it as  the  Company  shall  reasonably  request  and as  shall  be  required  in
connection with the action to be taken by the Company.

                  4.3 In  connection  with the  preparation  and  filing  of the
registration statement under this Agreement, the Company will give the Investors
on whose  behalf such  Registrable  Securities  are to be  registered  and their
respective  counsel and  accountants the opportunity to review and make comments
to the registration  statement,  each prospectus  included therein or filed with
the Commission,  and each amendment thereof or supplement thereto, and will give
each such  Investor  such  access to the  Company's  books and  records and such
opportunities  to discuss the  business of the Company  with its  officers,  its
counsel and the independent  public accountants who have certified the Company's

and hold harmless each Investor,  each of its officers,  directors and partners,
and each Person, if any, controlling such Investor,  against all losses, claims,
damages and  liabilities  (or actions,  proceedings  or  settlements  in respect
thereof),  joint  or  several,  to which  they  may  become  subject  under  the
Securities  Act or  otherwise,  insofar  as such  losses,  claims,  damages,  or
liabilities  (or actions,  proceedings or settlements in respect  thereof) arise
out of or are based upon any untrue  statement or alleged untrue  statement,  or
any  misstatement of a material fact or alleged  misstatement of a material fact
contained in the  registration  statement,  including any  prospectus,  offering
circular or other  document,  notification  or the like,  or any  amendments  or
supplements  thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omissions or alleged
omission  to state  therein a material  fact  required  to be stated  therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the
Company of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation thereunder applicable to
the  Company  and  relating  to action or  inaction  required  of the Company in
connection  with  the  registration,   qualification  or  compliance;  and  will
reimburse each such Investor, each of its officers,  directors and partners, and
each Person, if any, controlling such Investor,  for any legal or other expenses
reasonably  incurred and as incurred by them in connection with investigating or
defending  or  settling  any such loss,  claim,  damage,  liability,  or action;
provided, however, that the Company shall not 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 an untrue  statement or alleged untrue statement or omission
or alleged  omission or  misstatement or alleged  misstatement  made in reliance
upon and based upon written  information  furnished to the Company expressly for
use in connection  with such  registration  by any such Investor or  controlling

<PAGE>


                  5.2 To the extent  permitted by law, each  Investor  severally
but not jointly  will,  if  Registrable  Securities  held by such  Investor  are
included  in the  securities  as to which  the  registration,  qualification  or
compliance is being effected,  indemnify and hold harmless the Company,  each of
its  directors  and officers who have signed the  registration  statement,  each
Person, if any, who controls the Company (other than such Investor),  each other
such  Investor and each of their  officers,  directors  and  partners,  and each
Person  controlling  such  Investor  or other  stockholder,  against all losses,
claims,  damages and  liabilities  (or actions,  proceedings  or  settlements in
respect thereof) to which the Company or any such director, officer, controlling
Person,  agent or  attorney  may become  subject,  under the  Securities  Act or
otherwise,  insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions,
proceedings or  settlements  in respect  thereof) arise out of or are based upon
any untrue  statement or alleged untrue  statement or misstatement of a material
fact or alleged  misstatement  of a material fact contained in the  registration
statement, including any prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, or
arise out of or are based upon 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,  in each case to the extent, but only to the
extent,  that such untrue  statement or alleged untrue  statement or omission or
alleged  omission  or  misstatement  or  alleged  misstatement  was made in such
registration  statement,  prospectus,  or amendments or supplements  thereto, in
reliance upon and in conformity  with written  information  with respect to such
Investor  furnished by such Investor  expressly for use in connection  with such
registration;  and each such Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses
reasonably  incurred by the Company,  each of its directors  and officers,  each
other  Investor  and each of their  officers,  directors  and  partners and each
Person controlling such other Investor or other stockholder for any legal or any
other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending
any such loss,  claim,  damage,  liability,  or action, in each case only to the
extent that such untrue  statement  or alleged  untrue  statement or omission or
alleged omission is made in the  registration  statement,  prospectus,  offering
circular or other  document  in reliance  upon and in  conformity  with  written
information  furnished  to  the  Company  by  such  Investor  and  stated  to be
specifically for use therein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein,  no Investor  shall be liable  under this  Section 5.2 for any amount in
excess  of the  net  proceeds  to  such  Investor  as a  result  of the  sale of
Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement.

                  5.3 Promptly after receipt by an indemnified  party under this
paragraph of notice of the commencement of any action,  such  indemnified  party
will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party
under  this  paragraph,   notify  the  indemnifying  party  in  writing  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 given notice to assume the defense
thereof with counsel mutually  satisfactory to the parties;  provided,  however,
that if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and
the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded
that there may be reasonable  defenses  available to it which are different from
or additional to those available to the indemnifying  party, or if the interests
of the indemnified party may reasonably be deemed to conflict with the interests
of the indemnifying  party, the indemnified party shall have the right to select
a separate counsel and to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate
in the  defense  of such  action,  with the  expense  and fees of such  separate
counsel and other expenses  relating to such  participation  to be reimbursed by


                                      -6-
<PAGE>

the indemnifying party as incurred.  The failure to notify an indemnifying party
promptly of the  commencement of any such action,  if prejudicial to his ability
to defend such action, shall not relieve such indemnifying party of liability to
the indemnified party under this paragraph,  but such liability shall be reduced
in accordance with the extent of such prejudice.

         6.  Information  by the  Investor.  Each Investor  holding  Registrable
Securities to be included in the  registration  will furnish to the Company such
information  regarding  such  Investor  and the  distribution  proposed  by such
Investor  as  the  Company  may  reasonably  request  in  writing  and as may be
reasonably  required by  applicable  law in  connection  with any  registration,
qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement.

         7. Transfer or Assignment.  The rights to cause the Company to register
securities  granted by the  Company  under this  Agreement  may be  assigned  or
otherwise  transferred  by any Investor or by any  subsequent  transferee of any
such rights without the written consent of the Company.

         8. No Conflict of Rights. The Company will not hereafter enter into any
agreement with respect to its securities  which is inconsistent  with the rights
granted to the Investors in this Agreement.  Without  limiting the generality of
the  foregoing,  the Company will not hereafter  enter into any  agreement  with
respect to its securities  which grants or modifies any existing  agreement with
respect to its securities to grant to any holder of its securities in connection
with an incidental  registration of such securities  equal or higher priority to
the rights granted to the Investors in this Agreement.

         9. Exchange Act  Compliance.  So long as the Company remains subject to
the  reporting  requirements  of the Exchange  Act,  the Company  shall file the
reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act
and the rules and  regulations  adopted by the Commission  thereunder,  and will
take  all  actions  reasonably   necessary  to  enable  holders  of  Registrable
Securities to sell such securities without registration under the Securities Act
within the  limitation of the  provisions  of (a) Rule 144 under the  Securities
Act,  as such Rule may be  amended  from time to time,  (b) Rule 144A  under the
Securities  Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time, if applicable or
(c) any similar rules or regulations  hereunder adopted by the Commission.  Upon
the request of any Investor  holding  Registrable  Securities,  the Company will
deliver to such Investor a written  statement as to whether it has complied with
such requirements.

         10. Miscellaneous.

                  10.1  Directly  or  Indirectly.  Where any  provision  in this
Agreement  refers to action to be taken by any  person,  or which such person is

                                   SCHEDULE B
                                   ----------
                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

         We are  registering the shares of common stock on behalf of the selling
stockholders. The shares of common stock may be sold in one or more transactions
at fixed  prices,  at  prevailing  market  prices at the time of sale, at prices
related to the  prevailing  market prices,  at varying prices  determined at the
time of sale,  or at negotiated  prices.  These sales may be effected at various
times  in one or  more of the  following  transactions,  or in  other  kinds  of
transactions:

     o    transactions on any national securities exchange or U.S.  inter-dealer
          system of a registered  national  securities  association on which the
          common stock may be listed or quoted at the time of sale;

     o    in the over-the-counter market;

     o    in  private  transactions  and  transactions  otherwise  than on these
          exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market;

     o    in connection with short sales of the shares;

     o    by pledge to secure or in payment of debt and other obligations;

     o    through the  writing of options,  whether the options are listed on an
          options exchange or otherwise;

     o    in connection with the writing of non-traded and exchange-traded  call
          options, in hedge transactions and in settlement of other transactions
          in standardized or over-the-counter options; or

     o    through a combination of any of the above transactions.

         Each selling stockholder and its successors, including its transferees,
pledgees or donees or their  successors,  may sell the common stock  directly to
the purchaser or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, who may receive
compensation  in the form of  discounts,  concessions  or  commissions  from the
selling   stockholder  or  the  purchaser.   These  discounts,   concessions  or
commissions as to any particular  underwriter,  broker-dealer or agent may be in
excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved.

         In addition,  any securities  covered by this prospectus  which qualify
for sale pursuant to Rule 144 of the  Securities  Act may be sold under Rule 144
rather than pursuant to this prospectus.

         We entered into a registration  rights agreement for the benefit of the
selling  stockholders to register the common stock under applicable  federal and
state  securities  laws.  The   registration   rights  agreement   provides  for
cross-indemnification  of the  selling  stockholders  and us and our  respective
directors,  officers and  controlling  persons against  specific  liabilities in


                                      -11-

connection  with the offer and sale of the common stock,  including  liabilities
under the Securities Act. We will pay substantially all of the expenses incurred
by the selling  stockholders  incident to the  registration  of the offering and
sale of the common stock.
