                          REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

         THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), dated as of
March 30, 2000, by and between Toups Technology Licensing, Inc., a corporation
organized under the laws of the State of Florida, U.S.A., with headquarters
located at 7887 Bryan Dairy Road, Suite 105, Largo, Florida 33777 (the
"Company"), and the buyer set forth on the execution page hereof (the "Buyer").

                                    RECITALS

         A.       In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement by and
between the parties of even date herewith (the "Securities Purchase Agreement"),
the Company has agreed, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the
Securities Purchase Agreement, to issue and sell to the Buyer (i) a number of
the Company's Series 2000-A Eight Percent (8%) Convertible Notes Due March 31,
2002 (the "Notes") and (ii) a number of Warrants (as defined in the Securities
Purchase Agreement). The Notes are convertible in accordance with their
respective terms into common stock of the Company, $.001 par value per share
("Common Stock"). The Warrants are exercisable in accordance with their terms
into Common Stock. The Common Stock into which the Notes are convertible may be
referred to herein as the "Conversion Shares." The Common Stock into which the
Warrants are exercisable may be referred to herein as the "Warrant Shares." In
accordance with the terms of the Notes, shares of Common Stock may be issued in
payment of interest ("Interest Shares").

         B.       The Buyer has agreed to purchase and pay for the Notes and the
Warrants as provided in the Securities Purchase Agreement. Upon each such
purchase, the Company will issue and deliver the Notes and the Warrants to the
Buyer.

         C.       To induce the Buyer to execute and deliver the Securities
Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to provide certain registration
rights under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and
regulations thereunder, or any similar successor statute (collectively, the
"1933 Act"), and applicable state securities laws.

                                   AGREEMENTS

         NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by all parties hereto,
the Company and the Buyer hereby agree as follows:

         1.       DEFINITIONS.

         a.       As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the
following meanings:

         i.       "Investor" or "Investors" means the Buyer and any permitted
transferee(s) or assignee(s) thereof to whom the Buyer assigns this Agreement
and who agrees to become bound by the provisions of this Agreement in accordance
with Section 9 hereof.

         ii.      "Register," "registered," and "registration" refer to a
registration effected by preparing and filing a Registration Statement or
Statements in compliance with the 1933 Act and pursuant to Rule 415 under the
1933 Act or any successor rule providing for offering securities on

<PAGE>

a continuous basis ("Rule 415"), and the declaration or ordering of
effectiveness of such Registration Statement by the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

         iii.     "Registrable Securities" means the Conversion Shares and the
Interest Shares (if any) underlying or issued in accordance with or upon
conversion of the Notes, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares, and any shares of
capital stock issued or issuable from time to time (with any adjustments) on or
in exchange for or otherwise with respect to either of the foregoing (including
without limitation any shares issued pursuant to Section 2(b) hereinafter).

         iv.      "Registration Statement" or "Registration Statements" means a
registration statement or statements of the Company filed under the 1933 Act.

         b.       Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein
shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Securities Purchase
Agreement.

         2.       REGISTRATION.

         a.       MANDATORY REGISTRATION. (i) The Company shall use its best
efforts to prepare, and, on or before the date that is ten (10) days after the
date of the Closing, file with the SEC a Registration Statement or Registration
Statements (as necessary) on Form SB-2 (or, if such form is unavailable for such
a registration, on such other form as is available for such a registration of
all of the Registrable Securities) (any of which may contain a combined
prospectus with other registrations by the Company), covering the resale of all
of the Registrable Securities, which Registration Statement(s), to the extent
allowable under the 1933 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder (including
without limitation Rule 416), shall state that such Registration Statement(s)
also covers such indeterminate number of additional shares (the "Indeterminate
Shares") of Common Stock as may become issuable upon conversion of the Notes to
prevent dilution resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar
transactions.

         (ii) To the extent the Indeterminate Shares for any reason can not be
registered under the Registration Statement(s) required under Section 2(a)(i)
above, then with respect to such Indeterminate Shares, the Company shall use its
best efforts to prepare, and, on or before the date that is fifteen (15) days
after the Indeterminate Shares become issuable, file with the SEC a Registration
Statement or Registration Statements (as necessary) on Form SB-2 (or, if such
form is unavailable for such a registration, on such other form as is available
for such a registration of all of the Indeterminate Shares) (any of which may
contain a combined prospectus with other registrations by the Company), covering
the resale of all of the Indeterminate Shares.

         A copy of the Registration Statement(s) (and each amendment or
supplement thereto, and each request for acceleration of effectiveness thereof)
shall be provided to (and subject to the approval of the Buyer, which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld or denied) the Buyer and its counsel prior to
its filing or other submission.

         b.       LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. The Company shall use its best efforts to
obtain effectiveness of the Registration Statement as soon as practicable. If
(i) the Registration Statement(s) covering the Registrable Securities required
to be filed by the Company pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof is not declared
effective by the SEC within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date (other than
by reason of any act or failure to act in a timely manner by the Investor or its
counsel) (the


                                       2
<PAGE>

"Registration Deadline") or if, after the Registration Statement has been
declared effective by the SEC, sales cannot be made pursuant to the Registration
Statement (by reason of a suspension, a stop order, the Company's failure to
update the Registration Statement, or any other reason outside the control of
the Investor), or (ii) the Common Stock is not listed or included for quotation
on the OTC Bulletin Board Market, the National Association of Securities Dealers
Automated Quotation system Small Cap Market ("NASDAQ Small Cap"), or another
United States national securities exchange or market; then in either case (in
either case, a "Delay") the Company will make payments to the Investors, as
liquidated damages and in such amounts and at such times as shall be determined
pursuant to this Section 2(b) as relief and as the sole remedy for the damages
to the Investor by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to
sell the Registrable Securities (which remedy shall be exclusive of any other
remedies available at law or in equity), an amount to be determined as follows.
The Company shall pay to the Investor an amount equal to the Purchase Price
(including, without limitation, any Notes that have been converted into
Conversion Shares then held by such Investors) (the "Aggregate Share Price")
multiplied by one and one-half hundredths (.015) times the sum of: (i) the
number of months (prorated for partial months) beginning the day after the
Registration Deadline and ending on the date the Registration Statement is
declared effective by the SEC, provided, however, that there shall be excluded
from such period any delays which are reasonably attributable to changes
required by the Investor in the Registration Statement with respect to
information relating to the Investor, including, without limitation, changes to
the plan of distribution, or to the failure of the Investor to conduct its
review of the registration statement pursuant to Section 2(a) above in a
reasonably prompt manner; (ii) the number of months (prorated for partial
months) that sales cannot be made pursuant to the Registration Statement after
the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC; and (iii) the
number of months (prorated for partial months) that the Common Stock is not
listed or included for quotation on the NASDAQ Small Cap or another United
States national exchange after the Registration Statement has been declared
effective.

         By way of illustration, if the Registration Statement were to become
effective two months after the end of the Registration Deadline, the Company
would pay US$15,000 for the first month, and $15,000 for the second month, based
upon an assumed (for purposes of this illustration) aggregate sale of
US$1,000,000 worth of Notes (and thereafter would continue to pay US$15,000 per
month until the Registration Statement becomes effective).

         Such amounts shall be paid in cash or, at the Investor's option such
amounts may be convertible into Common Stock at the "Conversion Price" for the
Notes, as defined in the Notes. Any shares of Common Stock issued upon
conversion of such amounts shall be Registrable Securities. If the Investor
desires to convert the amounts due hereunder into Registrable Securities it
shall so notify the Company in writing within two (2) business days of the date
on which such amounts are first payable in cash and such amounts shall be so
convertible (pursuant to the mechanics set forth in the Securities Purchase
Agreement and/or the Notes), beginning on the last day upon which the cash
amount would otherwise be due in accordance with the following sentence.
Payments of cash pursuant hereto shall be made within five (5) days after the
end of each period that gives rise to such obligation, provided that, if any
such period extends for more than thirty (30) days, interim payments shall be
made for the full amount owed up to the date of such interim payment at the end
of each thirty (30) day period.


                                       3
<PAGE>

         Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2(b) to the contrary, the
Company shall not be subject to the penalties specified in this Section 2(b)
with respect to a delay in registering the Registrable Securities past the
Registration Deadline, provided that such delay is solely attributable to the
SEC or its examiners.

         c.       PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATIONS. If at any time prior to the
expiration of the Registration Period (as hereinafter defined) the Company shall
file with the SEC a Registration Statement relating to an offering for its own
account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity
securities (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 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) the Company shall
send to the Investor written notice of such determination and, if within twenty
(20) days after receipt of such notice, such Investor shall so request in
writing, the Company, to the extent permitted by law, shall include in such
Registration Statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities such
Investor requests to be registered, except that if, in connection with any
underwritten public offering for the account of the Company the managing
underwriter(s) thereof shall impose a limitation on the number of shares of
Common Stock which may be included in the Registration Statement because, in
such underwriter(s)' reasonable good faith judgment, marketing or other factors
dictate such limitation is necessary to facilitate public distribution, then
only such limited portion of the Registrable Securities with respect to which
such Investor has requested inclusion hereunder will be included in the
Registration Statement; provided that no portion of the equity securities which
the Company is offering for its own account shall be excluded; provided, further
that the Company shall be entitled to exclude Registrable Securities to the
extent necessary to avoid breaching obligations existing prior to the date
hereof to other stockholders of the Company.

         Any exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata among
the Investors seeking to include Registrable Securities, in proportion to the
number of Registrable Securities sought to be included by such Investors;
provided, however, that the Company shall not exclude any Registrable Securities
unless the Company has first excluded all outstanding securities, the holders of
which are not entitled to inclusion of such securities in such Registration
Statement or are not entitled to pro rata inclusion with the Registrable
Securities; and provided, further, however, that, after giving effect to the
immediately preceding proviso, any exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be
made pro rata with holders of other securities having the right to include such
securities in the Registration Statement other than holders of securities
entitled to inclusion of their securities in such Registration Statement by
reason of demand registration rights or whose registration rights existed prior
to the date hereof. No right of the Investor to registration of Registrable
Securities under this Section 2(c) shall be construed to limit any registration
required under Section 2(a) hereof. If an offering in connection with which an
Investor is entitled to registration under this Section 2(c) is an underwritten
offering, then each Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in such
Registration Statement shall, unless otherwise agreed by the Company, offer and
sell such Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering using the same
underwriter or underwriters and, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, on
the same terms and conditions as other shares of Common Stock included in such
underwritten offering.

         d.       ELIGIBILITY FOR FORM S-3. The Company represents and warrants
that it meets the requirements for the use of Form S-3 for registration of the
resale by the Buyer of the Registrable Securities and the Company shall file all
reports required to be filed by the Company with the SEC in a timely manner so
as to maintain such eligibility for the use of Form S-3. In the event that Form
S-3 is not available for registration of the Registrable Securities, the Company
shall register the securities on another appropriate form.


                                       4

         3.       RELATED OBLIGATIONS. In connection with the registration of
the Registrable Securities, the Company shall have the following obligations:

         a.       The Company shall use its best efforts to cause such
Registration Statement(s) relating to Registrable Securities to become effective
as soon as possible after such filing, but in no event later than the
Registration Deadline, and keep the Registration Statement(s) effective pursuant
to Rule 415 at all times until the earlier of (i) the date on which all of the
Registrable Securities have been sold (and no further Registrable Securities may
be issued in the future), (ii) the date as of which the Investors may
immediately sell all of the Registrable Securities without restriction pursuant
to Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act (or successor thereto) or otherwise,
or (iii) the date on which none of the Notes is outstanding (the "Registration
Period"), which Registration Statement(s) (including any amendments or
supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain 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, in light of the
circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

         b.       The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such
amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to the
Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the
Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement
effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during such period,
comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of
all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by the Registration Statement.
In the event the number of shares available under a Registration Statement filed
pursuant to this Agreement is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable
Securities issued or issuable upon conversion of the Notes, the Company shall
amend the Registration Statement, or file a new Registration Statement (on the
short form available therefor, if applicable), or both, so as to cover all of
the Registrable Securities, in each case, as soon as practicable, but in any
event within fifteen (15) days after the need therefor arises (based on the
market price of the Common Stock and other relevant factors on which the Company
reasonably elects to rely). The Company shall use its best efforts to cause such
amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as
practicable following the filing thereof.

         c.       The Company shall furnish to each Investor whose Registrable
Securities are included in the Registration Statement(s) promptly after the same
is prepared and publicly distributed, filed with the SEC, or received by the
Company, (i) one copy of the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto,
each preliminary prospectus and prospectus and each amendment or supplement
thereto in each case relating to such Registration Statement (other than any
portion thereof which contains information for which the Company has sought
confidential treatment) and, in the case of the Registration Statement referred
to in Section 2(a), each letter written by or on behalf of the Company to the
SEC or the staff of the SEC, and each item of correspondence from the SEC or the
staff of the SEC, in each case relating to such Registration Statement; and (ii)
such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, and
all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents as such Investor
may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable
Securities owned (or to be owned) by such Investor.

         d.       The Company shall use reasonable efforts to (i) register and
qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement(s)
under such other securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions in the
United States as each Investor who holds (or has the right to hold) Registrable
Securities being offered reasonably requests (but in no event greater than three
states in


                                       5
<PAGE>

the Unites States), (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions such amendments
(including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and
qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during
the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to
maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the
Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or
advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection
therewith or as a condition thereto to (a) qualify to do business in any
jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this
Section 3(d), (b) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction,
(c) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction, (d)
provide any undertakings that cause more than nominal expense or burden to the
Company, or (e) make any change in its charter or bylaws, which in each case the
Board of Directors of the Company determines to be contrary to the best
interests of the Company and its stockholders.

         e.       As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event,
the Company shall notify each Investor of the happening of any event, of which
the Company has knowledge, as a result of which the prospectus included in a
Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a
material fact or omission 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 use its best efforts promptly to
prepare a supplement or amendment to the Registration Statement to correct such
untrue statement or omission, and deliver such number of copies of such
supplement or amendment to each Investor as such Investor may reasonably
request.

         f.       The Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the issuance
of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of a Registration
Statement, and, if such an order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such
order at the earliest possible moment and to notify each Investor who holds
Registrable Securities being sold (or, in the event of an underwritten offering,
the managing underwriters) of the issuance of such order and the resolution
thereof.

         g.       The Company is subject to the reporting requirements of
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"1934 Act"). For so long as the Buyer beneficially owns any of the Securities,
the Company shall file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to
the 1934 Act, and the Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer
required to file reports under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rules
and regulations hereunder would permit such termination.

         h.       At the request of the Investor, but no more than three (3)
times in any one ninety (90) day period, the Company shall furnish, on the date
of effectiveness of the Registration Statement and thereafter from time to time
on such dates as the Investor may reasonably request an opinion, dated as of
such requested date, of counsel representing the Company for purposes of such
Registration Statement, in form, scope and substance as is customarily given in
an underwritten public offering, addressed to the Company's transfer agent
and/or to the Investors. Such opinion shall be substantially as set forth in
Exhibit I attached hereto.

         i.       The Company shall make available for inspection by (i) any
Investor, (ii) any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to a
Registration Statement, (iii) one firm of attorneys and one firm of accountants
or other agents retained by the Investors, and (iv) one firm of attorneys
retained by all such underwriters (collectively, the "Inspectors") all pertinent
financial and other records, and pertinent corporate documents and properties of
the Company (collectively, the


                                       6
<PAGE>

"Records"), as shall be reasonably deemed necessary by each Inspector to enable
each Inspector to exercise its due diligence responsibility, and cause the
Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all information which any
Inspector may reasonably request for purposes of such due diligence; provided,
however, that each Inspector shall hold in strict confidence and shall not make
any disclosure (except to an Investor) or use of any Record or other information
which the Company determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which
determination the Inspectors are so notified, unless (a) the disclosure of such
Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any
Registration Statement, (b) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a
final, non-appealable subpoena or order from a court or government body of
competent jurisdiction, or (c) the information in such Records has been made
generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this
or any other agreement. The Company shall not be required to disclose any
confidential information in such Records to any Inspector until and unless such
Inspector shall have entered into confidentiality agreements (in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company) with the Company with respect
thereto, substantially in the form of this Section 3(i). Each Investor agrees
that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in or by
a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means,
give prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to
undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective
order for, the Records deemed confidential.

         j.       The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any
disclosure of information concerning an Investor provided to the Company unless
(i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state
securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid
or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, (iii) the
release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other final,
non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent
jurisdiction, or (iv) such information has been made generally available to the
public other than by disclosure in violation of this or any other agreement. The
Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information
concerning an Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of
competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to such
Investor and allow such Investor, at the Investor's expense, to undertake
appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order
for, such information.

         k.       The Company shall cooperate with the Investors who hold
Registrable Securities being offered to facilitate the timely preparation and
delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legend) representing the
Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement and
enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may
be, the Investors may reasonably request and registered in such names as the
Investors may request. Not later than the date on which any Registration
Statement registering the resale of Registrable Securities is declared
effective, the Company shall deliver (at its expense) to its transfer agent
instructions, accompanied by any required opinion of counsel, that permit sales
of unlegended securities in a timely fashion that complies with then mandated
securities settlement procedures for regular way market transactions.

         l.       Upon the Closing, the Company shall promptly secure the
listing of the Registrable Securities then underlying the Notes then purchased
by the Buyer upon each national securities exchange or automated quotation
system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed (subject to
official notice of issuance) and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of
Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of shares of Registrable
Securities from time to time issued


                                       7
<PAGE>

under the terms of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement. The
Company shall at all times comply in all respects with the Company's reporting,
filing and other obligations under the by-laws or rules of the National
Association of Securities Dealers and the OTC BULLETIN BOARD MARKET (and such
other national exchange on which the Common Stock may be listed, as applicable).

         m        The Company shall provide a transfer agent and registrar,
which may be a single entity, for the Registrable Securities not later than the
effective date of the Registration Statement.

         n.       The Company shall comply with all applicable laws relating to
a Registration Statement and offering and sale of securities and all applicable
rules and regulations of governmental authorities in connection therewith
(including without limitation the 1933 Act and the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, and all the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC).

         o.       The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary
to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Investors of Registrable
Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement.

         4.       OTHER OBLIGATIONS. In connection with the registration of the
Registrable Securities, the Investors shall have the following obligations:

         a.       At least fifteen (15) days prior to the first anticipated
filing date of the Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each
Investor of the information the Company requires from each such Investor if such
Investor elects to have any of such Investor's Registrable Securities included
in the Registration Statement. 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 and the intended method of
disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it as shall be reasonably
required to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall
execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may
reasonably request.

         b.       Each Investor by such Investor's acceptance of the Registrable
Securities agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the
Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration
Statement(s) 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 the Registration Statement.

         c.       In the event Investors holding a majority of the Registrable
Securities being registered determine to engage the services of an underwriter,
each Investor agrees to enter into and perform such Investor's obligations under
an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, including, without
limitation, customary indemnification and contribution obligations, with the
managing underwriter of such offering and take such other actions as are
reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the
Registrable Securities, unless such Investor notifies the Company in writing of
such Investor's election to exclude all of such Investor's Registrable
Securities from the Registration Statement(s).

         d.       Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the
Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(e) or
3(f), such Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable
Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement(s) covering such Registrable
Securities until such Investor's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or
amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(e) or 3(f) and, if so directed by
the Company, such


                                       8
<PAGE>

Investor shall deliver to the Company (at the expense of the Company) or destroy
(and deliver to the Company a certificate of destruction) all copies in such
Investor's possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities
current at the time of receipt of such notice.

         e.       No Investor may participate in any underwritten registration
hereunder unless such Investor (i) agrees to sell such Investor's Registrable
Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by
the Investors entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements, (ii) completes
and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting
agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such
underwriting arrangements, and (iii) agrees to pay its pro rata share of all
underwriting discounts and commissions and any expenses incurred by the Company
pursuant to Section 5 below.

         5.       EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. The Company agrees to pay all
reasonable expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, incurred
in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Sections
2 and 3, including, without limitation, all registration, listing and
qualifications fees, printers and accounting fees, and fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company. If Investors who hold a majority of Registrable
Securities undertake to resell the Registrable Securities in an underwritten
public offering, the Company will reasonably cooperate as is customarily
required in an underwritten public offering. The Investors who participate in
such a public offering shall pay all expenses incurred in connection with such
registration, whether incurred by them or the Company, including without
limitation, underwriting discounts and commissions, all registration, listing
and qualification fees, printing charges, and fees and disbursements of
accountants and counsel for the Company.

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

         a.       To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify,
hold harmless and defend each Investor who holds such Registrable Securities,
the directors, officers and each person who controls any Investor within the
meaning of the 1933 Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"1934 Act"), if any, and any underwriter (as defined in the 1933 Act) for the
Investors, and the directors and the officers of, and each person, if any, who
controls, any such underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934
Act (each, an "Indemnified Person"), against any losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses (joint or several) (collectively, together with actions,
proceedings or inquiries by any regulatory or self regulatory organization,
whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof, "Claims") 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 the omission or alleged omission to state a material
fact therein required to be stated or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus if used prior to the
effective date of such Registration Statement, or contained in the final
prospectus (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 therein 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 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"). Subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 6(d) with
respect


                                       9
<PAGE>

to the number of legal counsel, the Company shall reimburse the Investors and
each such underwriter or controlling person, promptly as such expenses are
incurred and are due and payable, for any legal fees or other expenses
reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any
such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a): (i) shall not apply to
a Claim 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 any
Indemnified Person or underwriter for such Indemnified Person expressly for use
in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such
amendment thereof or supplement thereto, if such prospectus was timely made
available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c) hereof; (ii) with respect to
any preliminary prospectus, shall not inure to the benefit of any such person
from whom the person asserting any such Claim purchased the Registrable
Securities that are the subject thereof (or to the benefit of any person
controlling such person) if the untrue statement or omission of the material
fact contained in the preliminary prospectus was corrected in the prospectus, as
then amended or supplemented, if such prospectus was timely made available by
the Company pursuant to Section 3(c) hereof; (iii) shall not be available to the
extent such Claim is based on a failure of the Investor to deliver or to cause
to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company or the failure of
the Investor to comply with federal or state law relating to the offering or
sale of the Registrable Securities; and (iv) shall not apply to amounts paid in
settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written
consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 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, each such Investor agrees to indemnify, 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, each of its officers who signs the
Registration Statement, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the
meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act, any underwriter and any other
stockholder selling securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or any of
its directors or officers or any person who controls such stockholder or
underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (collectively and
together with an Indemnified Person, an "Indemnified Party"), against any Claim
to which any of them may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or
otherwise, insofar as such Claim arises out of or is 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 to the
Company by such Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration
Statement or to the extent such Claim is based upon any violation or alleged
violation by the Investor of the 1933 Act, 1934 Act or any other law; and such
Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them
in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; 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
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 as does not
exceed the net proceeds to such Investor 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 Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable
Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this
Section 6(b) with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the
benefit of any Indemnified Party if the untrue


                                       10
<PAGE>

statement or omission of material fact contained in the preliminary prospectus
was corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus, as then amended or
supplemented.

         c.       The Company shall be entitled to receive indemnities from
underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry
professionals participating in any distribution, to the same extent as provided
above, with respect to information such persons so furnished in writing by such
persons expressly for inclusion in the Registration Statement.

         d.       Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified
Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action
(including any governmental action), such Indemnified Person or 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 mutually satisfactory to the
indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the
case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party
shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses to be
paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel
retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the
Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be
inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such
Indemnified Person or 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 the Investors, 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;
provided, that the Company shall have the right to approve the selection of
counsel and legal fees and expenses of such firm shall be reasonable. 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 Person or Indemnified Party under this
Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its
ability to defend such action. 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 such expense, loss, damage or liability is
incurred and is due and payable.

         7.       CONTRIBUTION. To the extent any indemnification by an
indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party
agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it
would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by
law; provided, however, that (i) no contribution shall be made under
circumstances where the maker would not have been liable for indemnification
under the fault standards set forth in Section 6, (ii) no seller of Registrable
Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of
Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation, and
(iii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in
amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of
such 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.       make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood and defined in Rule 144;


                                       11
<PAGE>

         b.       file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act so long as
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 the filing of such reports and other
documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and

         c.       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, the
1933 Act 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, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to
permit the Investor to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without
registration.

         9.       ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights to have the
Company register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be
automatically assignable by the Investors to any transferee 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 within a reasonable time after such assignment, (ii)
the Company is, within a reasonable time 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,
(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 herein, (v) such
transfer shall have been made in accordance with the applicable requirements of
the Securities Purchase Agreement, (vi) such transferee shall submit evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Company that the Transferee is an "accredited
investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under
the 1933 Act; and (vii) in the event the assignment occurs subsequent to the
date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement required to be filed
pursuant to Section 2(a), the transferee agrees to pay all reasonable expenses
of amending or supplementing such Registration Statement to reflect such
assignment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no assignment of
the rights represented by this Agreement shall be effective unless in compliance
with any applicable securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

         10.      AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. Provisions of this Agreement
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 Investors who hold a majority of the
Registrable Securities. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this
Section 10 shall be binding upon each Investor and the Company.

         11.      MISCELLANEOUS.

         a.       A person or entity is deemed to be a holder of Registrable
Securities whenever such person or entity owns of record such Registrable
Securities. If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or
elections from two or more persons or entities with respect to the same


                                       12
<PAGE>

Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions,
notice or election received from the registered owner of such Registrable
Securities.

of this Agreement shall be sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt
