                   STOCK REPURCHASE AND REGISTRATION AGREEMENT


     This is a Stock Repurchase and Registration Agreement (this "Agreement),
dated April 30, 1996 among Acusphere, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), Harry R. Allcock ("Allcock"), Sherri C. Oberg ("Oberg"), Robert S.
Langer ("Langer"), Richard Kronenthal ("Kronenthal") and Walter Levison
("Levison") (Allcock, Oberg, Langer, Kronenthal and Levison being referred to
herein collectively as the "Founders" and individually as a "Founder.")

     WHEREAS, the Company, and the Founders entered into an Amended and Restated
Stockholders' Agreement ("Stockholders' Agreement"), dated January 24, 1994, and
the Company and Allcock entered into a Stock Restriction Agreement, dated
September, 1995 (the "Stock Restriction Agreement"); and

     WHEREAS, Allcock was employed as a consultant to the Company pursuant to a
Consulting Agreement dated December ___, 1993 (the "Consulting Agreement"),which
has been terminated effective February 6, 1996; and

     WHEREAS, the Company has elected under Section 5 of the Stockholders'
Agreement and Section 5 of the Stock Restriction Agreement to repurchase certain
shares of the Company's Common Stock, $.01 par value per share (the "Common
Stock") held by Allcock, and

     WHEREAS, the Company and the Founders wish to arrange for the resolution of
all outstanding issues between the Company and Allcock, including the repurchase
of such shares of Common Stock, and to provide certain rights and impose certain
obligations on the shares of Common Stock held by all Founders;

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises hereinafter set

     2.   REPURCHASE OF UNVESTED SHARES

          A.   Allcock hereby sells, transfers and assigns to the Company and
the Company hereby repurchases from Allcock 287,159 shares of Common Stock held
by Allcock (the "Repurchased Shares") for the aggregate purchase price of
$998.93, such amount being the price originally paid by Allcock for the
Repurchased Shares (after taking into account a stock dividend paid by the
Company after the original issuance of shares of Common Stock the Founders).
Upon the execution of this Agreement, the Company has delivered a check for such
purchase price to Allcock, and Allcock has delivered to his attorney, for
delivery to the Company, the certificate representing the Repurchased Shares,
accompanied by an appropriate stock power executed by Allcock. Promptly after
receipt of such certificate, the Company will deliver to Allcock a stock
certificate representing the balance of the shares of Common Stock held by him
represented by such certificate.

          B.   The Company and Allcock agree that the Repurchased Shares
constitute all of Allcock's Unvested Shares (as such term is defined in the
Stockholders' Agreement and the Stock Restriction Agreement), that the Company
has no right under Section 5 of the Stockholders' Agreement or the Stock
Restriction Agreement to repurchase the remaining shares of Common Stock held by
Allcock, and that all such remaining shares are "Vested Shares" as defined in
the Stockholders' Agreement and the Stock Restriction Agreement.

          C.   The Company and Allcock agree that this Agreement constitutes the
Company's notice to repurchase the Repurchased Shares required by the
Stockholders' Agreement and the Stock Restriction Agreement and that the
repurchase of the Repurchased Shares hereunder satisfies the requirements of
Section 5 of the Stockholders' Agreement and the Stock Restriction Agreement.

     3.   REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The Company hereby grants the Founders certain
rights to cause the Company to register shares of Common Stock held by them for
resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), as
and to the extent set forth in this Section 3:

          A.   CERTAIN DEFINITIONS. As used in this Section 3:

               (i)  "RESTRICTED STOCK" shall mean the shares of Common Stock
     held by any of the Founders, excluding those shares (a) which have been
     registered under the Securities Act pursuant to an effective registration
     statement filed thereunder and disposed of in accordance with the
     registration statement covering them, (b) which have been publicly sold
     pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, (c) which are available for
     sale pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act, or (d) which are
     Registrable Securities.

               (ii) "REGISTRABLE SECURITIES" shall have the meaning ascribed to
     such term in the Amended and Restated Investors Rights Agreement dated
     March 30, 1995,

<PAGE>   3

                                      -3-

     among the Company and certain investors named therein, as the same may be
     amended from time to time.

          B.   INCIDENTAL REGISTRATION. If the Company at any time proposes to
register any of its securities under the Securities Act for sale to the public,
whether for its own account or for the account of other security holders or both
(except with respect to registration statements on Forms S-4, S-8 or another
form not available for registering the Restricted Stock for sale to the public),
each such time it will give written notice to all holders of outstanding
Restricted Stock of its intention so to do. Upon the written request of any such
holder, received by the Company within fifteen days after the giving of any such
notice by the Company, to register any of its Restricted Stock, the Company will
use its best efforts to cause the Restricted Stock as to which registration
shall have been so requested to be included in the securities to be covered by
the registration statement proposed to be filed by the Company, all to the
extent requisite to permit the sale or other disposition by the holder of such
Restricted Stock so registered. In the event that any registration pursuant to
this Section 3 shall be, in whole or in part, an underwritten public offering of
Common Stock, the number of shares of Restricted Stock to be included in such an
underwriting may be reduced (pro rata among the requesting holders and all other
holders of Registrable Securities seeking to sell shares in such underwriting,
based upon the number of shares of Restricted Stock or Registrable Securities
held by each such holder) if and to the extent that the managing underwriter
shall be of the opinion that such inclusion would adversely affect the marketing
of the securities to be sold by the Company therein. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions, the Company may withdraw any registration statement
referred to in this Section 3 without thereby incurring any liability to the
holders of Restricted Stock.

          C.   REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. If and whenever the Company is required
by the provisions of Section 3 to use its best efforts to effect the
registration of any shares of Restricted Stock under the Securities Act, the
Company will, as expeditiously as possible:

               (i)  prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission
     (the "Commission") a registration statement with respect to such securities
     and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and
     remain effective for the period of the distribution contemplated thereby
     (determined as hereinafter provided);

               (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
     supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in
     connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration
     statement effective for the period specified in paragraph (i) above and
     comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the
     disposition of all Restricted Stock covered by such registration statement
     in accordance with the sellers' intended method of disposition set forth in
     such registration statement for such period;

               (iii) furnish to each seller of Restricted Stock and to each
     underwriter such number of copies of the registration statement and the
     prospectus included therein (including each preliminary prospectus) as such
     persons reasonably may request in order

<PAGE>   4

                                      -4-

     to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Restricted Stock
     covered by such registration statement;

               (iv) use its best efforts to register or qualify the Restricted
     Stock covered by such registration statement under the securities or "blue
     sky" laws of such jurisdictions as the sellers of Restricted Stock or, in
     the case of an underwritten public offering, the managing underwriter
     reasonably shall request, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not for
     any such purpose be required to qualify generally to transact business as a
     foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to
     consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;

               (v)  use its best efforts to list the Restricted Stock covered by
     such registration statement with any securities exchange on which the
     Common Stock of the Company is then listed;

               (vi) immediately notify each seller of Restricted Stock and each
     underwriter under 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 of which the Company has
     knowledge as a result of which the prospectus contained 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; and

               (vii) make available for inspection by each seller of Restricted
     Stock, any underwriter participating in any distribution pursuant to such
     registration statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent
     retained by such seller or underwriter, all financial and other records,
     pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the
     Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all information
     reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant
     or agent in connection with such registration statement.

          For purposes of Section 3C(i), the period of distribution of
Restricted Stock in a firm commitment underwritten public offering shall be
deemed to extend until each underwriter has completed the distribution of all
securities purchased by it, and the period of distribution of Restricted Stock
in any other registration shall be deemed to extend until the earlier of the
sale of all Restricted Stock covered thereby and 90 days after the effective
date thereof.

          In connection with each registration hereunder, the sellers of
Restricted Stock will furnish to the Company in writing such information with
respect to themselves and the proposed distribution by them as reasonably shall
be necessary in order to assure compliance with federal and applicable state
securities laws.

          As a condition to their participation in any registration pursuant to
Section 3 covering an underwritten public offering, the Founders shall enter
into a written underwriting

<PAGE>   5

                                      -5-

agreement with the managing underwriter selected by the Company in such form and
containing such provisions as are agreed upon between the Company and such
managing underwriter.

          D.   EXPENSES. All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with
Section 3, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees,
printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public
accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including counsel fees) incurred
in connection with complying with state securities or "blue sky" laws, fees of
the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., transfer taxes, fees of
transfer agents and registrars, costs of insurance and fees and disbursements of
one counsel for the sellers of Restricted Stock, but excluding any described in
the next sentence, shall be paid by the Company. All underwriting discounts and
selling commissions applicable to the sale of Restricted Stock shall be borne by
the participating sellers in proportion to the number of shares sold by each.

          E.   CHANGES IN COMMON STOCK. If, and as often as, there is any change
in the Common Stock by way of a stock split, stock dividend, combination or
reclassification, or through a merger, consolidation, reorganization or
recapitalization, or by any other means, appropriate adjustment shall be made in
the provisions hereof so that the rights and privileges granted hereby shall
continue with respect to the Common Stock as so changed. All Founders shall be
treated equally with respect to any such changes.

          F.   TRANSFERABILITY; TERMINATION.

               (i)  All covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement by
     or on behalf of any of the parties hereto shall bind and inure to the
     benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto
     whether so expressed or not, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that registration rights
     conferred herein on the holders or Restricted Stock shall only inure to the
     benefit of a transferee of Restricted Stock which is a spouse or child of a
     Founder or a trust for the benefit of a spouse or child of a Founder and
     which agrees in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement.

               (ii) If requested in writing by the underwriters for an
     underwritten public offering of securities of the Company, each holder of
     Restricted Stock who is a party to this Agreement shall agree not to sell
     publicly any shares of Restricted Stock or any other shares of Common Stock
     (other than shares of Restricted Stock or other shares of Common Stock
     being registered in such offering), without the consent of such
     underwriters, for a period of not more than 180 days following the
     effective date of the registration statement relating to such offering;
     PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that all persons entitled to registration rights with
     respect to shares of Common Stock who are not parties to this Agreement,
     all other persons selling shares of Common Stock in such offering, all
     persons holding in excess of 5% of the capital stock of the Company on a
     fully diluted basis and all executive officers and directors of the Company
     shall also have agreed not to sell publicly their Common Stock under the
     circumstances and pursuant to the terms set forth in this Section 3F(ii).
