                                   ARTICLE VII

                               REGISTRATION RIGHTS

         The Company hereby grants to the Investors certain rights to require
the Company to register Common Stock of the Company in compliance with the
Securities Act and certain rights to participate with the Company in any
registration by the Company of Common Stock under the Securities Act. The
provisions governing such registration rights are set out in this Article VII.
The Company and the Investors hereby absolutely and unconditionally agree to be
bound and governed by, and specifically make and adopt, all of the terms and
provisions contained in this Article VII. A Holder shall, for all purposes of
this Article VII, unless the context shall otherwise require, be deemed to hold,
at any particular time, all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
or in exchange for or upon exercise of rights under all capital stock or other
securities (including, without limitation, options and warrants) of the Company
held of record by such Holder at such time.

         SS.7.1. DEMAND REGISTRATIOn.

         (a) REQUESTS FOR DEMAND REGISTRATION.

                  (i) Subject to the limitations contained in the following
         paragraphs of this ss.7.1, the Holders of a majority of the Registrable
         Securities at any time outstanding may at any time and from time to
         time give to the Company, pursuant to this clause (i), a written
         request for the registration by the Company under the



<PAGE>   14
                                      -14-


         Securities Act of all or any part of the Registrable Securities of such
         Holders (such registration being herein called a "DEMAND
         REGISTRATION"). Within ten (10) days after the receipt by the Company
         of any such written request, the Company will give written notice of
         such registration request to all Holders of Registrable Securities.

                  (ii) Subject to the limitations contained in the following
         paragraphs of this ss.7.1, after the receipt of each such written
         request for a Demand Registration, (A) the Company will be obligated
         and required to include in such Demand Registration all Registrable
         Securities with respect to which the Company shall receive from Holders
         of Registrable Securities, within thirty (30) days after the date on
         which the Company shall have given to all Holders a written notice of
         registration request pursuant to ss.7.1(a)(i) hereof, the written
         requests of such Holders for inclusion in such Demand Registration, and
         (B) the Company will use its best efforts in good faith to effect
         promptly the registration of all such Registrable Securities. All
         written requests made by Holders of Registrable Securities pursuant to
         this clause (ii) will specify the number of shares of Registrable
         Securities to be registered and will also specify the intended method
         of disposition thereof.

         (b) LIMITATIONS ON DEMAND REGISTRATION.

                  (i) The Holders of Registrable Securities will not be entitled
         to require the Company to effect more than one Demand Registration on
         Form S-1 (or other comparable form adopted by the Commission). The
         foregoing limitation shall not apply to Demand Registrations on Form
         S-3 (or other comparable form adopted by the Commission), which shall
         be unlimited in number.

                  (ii) The Company shall not be obligated or required to effect
         any Demand Registration of any Registrable Securities pursuant to
         ss.7.1(a) hereof unless and until the Holders shall have requested,
         pursuant to ss.7.1(a)(ii) hereof, the inclusion in such Demand
         Registration of not less than the Minimum Number of Registrable
         Securities applicable to such Demand Registration.

                  (iii) Any registration initiated by Holders of Registrable
         Securities as a Demand Registration pursuant to ss.7.1(a) hereof shall
         not, for purposes of this ss.7.1, count as a Demand Registration unless
         and until such registration shall have become effective and such
         registration remains current and effective for a minimum period of one
         year such that all such Registrable Securities included in such
         registration which remain unsold may be sold pursuant thereto.

                  (iv) The Company shall not be obligated or required to effect
         any Demand Registration of any Registrable Securities pursuant to
         ss.7.1(a) hereof during the period commencing on the date falling sixty
         (60) days prior to the Company's estimated date of filing of, and
         ending on the date ninety (90) days


<PAGE>   15
                                      -15-


         following the effective date of, any Registration Statement pertaining
         to any underwritten registration initiated by the Company, for the
         account of the Company, if the written request of Holders for such
         Demand Registration pursuant to ss.7.1(a)(i) hereof shall have been
         received by the Company after the Company shall have given to all
         Holders of Registrable Securities a written notice stating that the
         Company is commencing an underwritten registration initiated by the
         Company; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company will use its best efforts
         in good faith to cause any such Registration Statement to be filed and
         to become effective as expeditiously as shall be reasonably possible.

         (c) EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION - EXPENSES. In any registration initiated by
the Holders as a Demand Registration pursuant to ss.7.1(a) hereof, the Company
will pay all Registration Expenses of each such registration regardless of
whether such registration constitutes a Demand Registration for purposes of this
ss.7.1.

         (d) LIMITATION ON RIGHTS TO PIGGYBACK ON DEMAND REGISTRATIONS.

                  (i) Neither the Company nor any of its securityholders (other
         than Holders of Registrable Securities in their capacity as Holders and
         the holder(s) of the Ableco Securities) shall have the right or
         otherwise be entitled to include any of the Company's securities in any
         registration initiated by Holders of Registrable Securities as a Demand
         Registration pursuant to ss.7.1(a) hereof, unless (A) such securities
         are of the same class as the Registrable Securities to be included in
         such Demand Registration, and (B) if such Demand Registration is an
         underwritten offering, the Company or (as the case may be) such
         securityholders shall have duly and properly agreed in writing to sell
         their securities on the same terms and conditions as shall apply to the
         Registrable Securities to be included in such Demand Registration.

                  (ii) The Company will not grant or agree to grant to any
         Persons any registration rights which will conflict or be inconsistent
         in any respect with any of the provisions of clause (i) of this
         ss.7.1(d). In the event of any such conflict or inconsistency, the
         provisions of such clause (i) shall in any case prevail and be
         controlling.

         (e) PRIORITY ON DEMAND REGISTRATIONS. If any Demand Registration is an
underwritten offering, and the managing underwriters shall give written advice
to the Company and the Holders of Registrable Securities to be included in such
registration that, in the reasonable opinion of such managing underwriters,
marketing factors require a limitation on the total number of securities to be
underwritten (the "UNDERWRITERS' MAXIMUM NUMBER"), then: (i) the Company will be
obligated and required to include in such registration that number of
Registrable Securities and Ableco Securities requested by the holders thereof to
be included in such registration which does not exceed the Underwriters' Maximum
Number, and such number of Registrable Securities and Ableco Securities shall be
allocated PRO RATA among the holders of such Registrable Securities and


<PAGE>   16
                                      -16-


Ableco Securities on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities and
Ableco Securities requested to be included therein by each such holder; (ii) if
the Underwriters' Maximum Number exceeds the number of Registrable Securities
and Ableco Securities requested by the holders thereof to be included in such
registration, then the Company will be entitled to include in such registration
that number of securities which shall have been requested by the Company to be
included in such registration for the account of the Company and which shall not
be greater than such excess; and (iii) if the Underwriters' Maximum Number
exceeds the sum of the number of Registrable Securities and Ableco Securities
which the Company shall be required to include in such Demand Registration and
the number of securities which the Company proposes to offer and sell for its
own account in such registration, then the Company may include in such
registration that number of other securities which Persons (other than the
Holders as such) shall have requested be included in such registration and which
shall not be greater than such excess.

         (f) SELECTION OF UNDERWRITERS. The holders of a Majority of the
Registrable Securities to be included in any Demand Registration shall determine
whether or not such Demand Registration shall be underwritten. If any Demand
Registration is an underwritten offering, or a best efforts underwritten
offering, the investment bankers and managing underwriters in such registration
will be selected by holders of a Majority of the Registrable Securities to be
included in such Demand Registration, subject to the approval of the Company,
not to be unreasonably withheld.

         (g) FAILURE TO TIMELY COMPLETE DEMAND REGISTRATION. In the event that
the Company (i) fails to cause to be registered in accordance with this ss.7.1
(but subject to the limitations in clause (b) above) all of the Registrable
Securities subject to a written request for Demand Registration within 150 days
after the date of such written request (the "REGISTRATION PERIOD") or (ii) fails
to maintain, as current and effective, any Registration Statement filed and made
effective pursuant to a Demand Registration until the earlier of (i) such time
as all Registrable Securities included in such registration, and which were
actually offered for sale by the holder thereof, shall have been actually sold
or (ii) one (1) year from the effective date of such Registration Statement, the
Company shall, without prejudice to any other rights and remedies available to
the holders of Registrable Securities, pay ratably to the holders of the
Registrable Securities $50,000 for each month (pro rated for portions of a
month) during which such failure continues after the Registration Period or the
date on which the Registration Statement ceased to be current and effective (as
applicable) (the "DELAY FEE"). The Delay Fee, if any, shall be due and payable
on a monthly basis on the last day of each applicable month. In the event that
the Delay Fee or any portion thereof is not paid when due, the unpaid portion of
the Delay Fee shall bear interest compounded quarterly and payable on demand at
a rate per annum equal to five and one-half percent (5 1/2%) above the Base Rate
(as such term is defined in the Subordinated Credit Agreement). The Company
shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including without limitation
reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) incurred by any holder of Registrable
Securities in connection with the collection of any Delay Fee payments or any
interest payable thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 7.1(g), the obligations of the Company under this Section 7.1(g) to make
any


<PAGE>   17
                                      -17-


payments of the Delay Fee, any interest thereon and any collection costs
associated therewith are subordinated to the prior payment in full of Senior
Indebtedness (as such term is defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) pursuant
to, and to the extent provided in, the Intercreditor Agreement.

         SS.7.2. PIGGYBACK REGISTRATIONS.

         (a) RIGHTS TO PIGGYBACK.

                  (i) If (and on each occasion that) the Company proposes to
         register any of its securities under the Securities Act (other than
         pursuant to a Demand Registration), either for the Company's own
         account or for the account of any of its securityholders (other than
         the Holders of Registrable Securities in their capacity as Holders)
         (each such registration being herein called a "PIGGYBACK
         REGISTRATION"), the Company will give written notice to all Holders of
         Registrable Securities of the Company's intention to effect such
         Piggyback Registration not later than the earlier to occur of (A) the
         tenth day following the receipt by the Company of notice of exercise of
         any registration rights by any Persons (other than the Holders of
         Registrable Securities in their capacities as Holders), and (B) thirty
         (30) days prior to the anticipated filing date of such Piggyback
         Registration.

                  (ii) Subject to the provisions contained in paragraphs (c) and
         (d) of this ss.7.2 and in the last sentence of this clause (ii), (A)
         the Company will be obligated and required to include in each Piggyback
         Registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the
         Company shall receive from Holders of Registrable Securities, within
         thirty (30) days after the date on which the Company shall have given
         written notice of such Piggyback Registration to all Holders of
         Registrable Securities pursuant to ss.7.2(a)(i) hereof, the written
         requests of such Holders for inclusion in such Piggyback Registration,
         and (B) the Company will use its best efforts in good faith to effect
         promptly the registration of all such Registrable Securities. The
         Holders of Registrable Securities shall be permitted to withdraw all or
         any part of the Registrable Securities of such Holders from any
         Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effective date of such
         Piggyback Registration. Any registration of Registrable Securities
         pursuant to this ss.7.2 shall not be counted as a Demand Registration
         pursuant to ss.7.1 hereof. The Company will not be obligated or
         required to include any Registrable Securities in any registration
         effected solely to implement an employee benefit plan or a transaction
         to which Rule 145 of the Commission is applicable.

         (b) PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION EXPENSES. The Company will pay all
Registration Expenses of each Piggyback Registration attributable to Registrable
Securities or otherwise incurred or sustained in connection with or arising out
of the inclusion in each such Piggyback Registration of Registrable Securities.


<PAGE>   18
                                      -18-


         (c) PRIORITY ON PIGGYBACK REGISTRATIONS. If a Piggyback Registration is
an underwritten registration, and the managing underwriters shall give written
advice to the Company of an Underwriters' Maximum Number, then: (i) the Company
shall be entitled to include in such registration that number of securities
which the Company proposes to offer and sell for its own account in such
registration and which does not exceed the Underwriters' Maximum Number; (ii) if
the Underwriters' Maximum Number exceeds the number of securities which the
Company proposes to offer and sell for its own account in such registration,
then the Company will be obligated and required to include in such registration
that number of Registrable Securities and Ableco Securities requested by the
holders thereof to be included in such registration and which does not exceed
such excess and such Registrable Securities and Ableco Securities shall be
allocated PRO RATA among the holders thereof on the basis of the number of
Registrable Securities and Ableco Securities requested to be included therein by
each such holder; and (iii) if the Underwriters' Maximum Number exceeds the sum
of the number of securities which the Company shall be required to include in
such registration pursuant to clause (ii) and the number of securities which the
Company proposes to offer and sell for its own account in such registration,
then the Company may include in such registration that number of other
securities which persons shall have requested be included in such registration
and which shall not be greater than such excess.

         (d) SELECTION OF UNDERWRITERS. In any Piggyback Registration, the
Company shall (unless the Company shall otherwise agree) have the right to
select the investment bankers and managing underwriters in such registration.

         SS.7.3. LOCKUP AGREEMENTS.

         (a) RESTRICTIONS ON PUBLIC SALE BY HOLDERS OF REGISTRABLE SECURITIES.
Each Holder of Registrable Securities, any of whose Registrable Securities are
included in any underwritten registration of the Company's securities, if the
Company or the managing underwriters so request in connection with such
registration, will not, without the prior written consent of the Company or such
underwriters, effect any public sale or other distribution of any equity
securities of the Company, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144, during the
seven (7) days prior to, and during the one hundred eighty (180) day period
commencing on, the effective date of such underwritten registration, except in
connection with such underwritten registration, except, in each case, to the
extent such Holder is prohibited by applicable law or exercise of fiduciary
duties from agreeing to withhold Registrable Securities from sale or is acting
in its capacity as a fiduciary or investment adviser; PROVIDED that each officer
and director of the Company and each holder of more than three percent (3%) of
the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock shall enter into similar
agreements; and PROVIDED FURTHER, that in the event that the Company is unable
to complete an underwritten registration solely as a result of one or more
Holders declining to agree to withhold Registrable Securities from sale in the
exercise of such Holders' fiduciary duties or in such Holders' capacity as a
fiduciary or investment adviser, the Company shall not be deemed to have
breached its obligations to register Registrable Securities under this Article
VII with respect to such proposed


<PAGE>   19
                                      -19-


underwritten registration. Without limiting the scope of the term "fiduciary", a
Holder shall be deemed to be acting as a fiduciary or an investment adviser if
its actions or the Registrable Securities to be sold are subject to the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, or if such Registrable Securities are held in a
separate account under applicable insurance law or regulation.

         (b) RESTRICTIONS ON PUBLIC SALE BY COMPANY. The Company agrees not to
effect any public sale or other distribution of its equity securities, or any
securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity
securities, during the period commencing on the seventh day prior to, and ending
on the one hundred and eightieth day following, the effective date of any
underwritten Demand Registration or any underwritten Piggyback Registration,
except in connection with any such underwritten registration and except for any
offering pursuant to an employee benefit plan and registered on Form S-8.

         SS.7.4. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. Whenever the Holders of Registrable
Securities have requested that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant
to this Agreement, the Company will use its best efforts to effect the
registration and the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the
intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company will as
expeditiously as possible:

         (a) prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement with
respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such
Registration Statement to become effective (PROVIDED, that before filing a
Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto,
the Company will furnish to counsel selected by the Holders of Registrable
Securities covered by such Registration Statement, copies of all such documents
proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the timely review of
such counsel and (i) in case of any Demand Registration, the Company will not
file any Registration Statement or amendment thereto or any Prospectus or any
supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by reference, to which the
Holders of a Majority of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
Statement shall reasonably object and (ii) in case of any Piggyback
Registration, the Company will not file any Registration Statement or amendment
thereto or any Prospectus or any supplement thereto to which, as to any
information regarding the Holders of the Registrable Securities contained
therein, the Holders of a Majority of the Registrable Securities covered by such
Registration Statement shall reasonably object);

         (b) 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
not more than six (6) months (one (1) year in case of a Demand Registration) and
comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition
of all securities covered by such Registration Statement during such effective
period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers
thereof set forth in such Registration Statement and cause the


<PAGE>   20
                                      -20-


Prospectus to be supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so
supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act;

         (c) upon request, furnish to each seller of Registrable Securities such
number of copies of such Registration Statement, each amendment and supplement
thereto, the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each
preliminary Prospectus and each Prospectus filed under Rule 424 of the
Securities Act) and such other documents as each such seller may reasonably
request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities
owned by each such seller (it being understood that the Company consents to the
use of the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto by such seller in
connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by
the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto);

         (d) use its best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable
Securities under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as
any seller reasonably requests, use its best efforts to keep each such
registration or qualification effective, including through new filings,
amendments or renewals, during the period such Registration Statement is
required to be kept effective, and do any and all other acts and things which
may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the
disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such
seller; PROVIDED that the Company will not be required (i) to qualify generally
to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to
qualify but for this subparagraph (d), (ii) to subject itself to taxation in any
such jurisdiction or (iii) to consent to general service of process in any such
jurisdiction;

         (e) notify each seller of such Registrable Securities, at any time when
a Prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities
Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included
in such Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact
or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and,
at the request of any such seller, the Company will promptly prepare (and, when
completed, give notice to each seller of Registrable Securities) a supplement or
amendment to such Prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers
of such Registrable Securities, such Prospectus will not contain an untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading; PROVIDED that upon such notification by the
Company, each seller of such Registrable Securities will not offer or sell such
Registrable Securities until the Company has notified such seller that it has
prepared a supplement or amendment to such Prospectus and delivered copies of
such supplement or amendment to such seller;

         (f) cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed, prior to the
date of the first sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such
registration, on each securities exchange or automatic quotation system, if any,
on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed;

         (g) provide a transfer agent for all such Registrable Securities not
later than the effective date of such Registration Statement;

         (h) enter into all such customary agreements (including underwriting

reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such
Registrable Securities;

         (i) make available for inspection on a confidential basis by any
seller, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such
Registration Statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by

financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the
Company, and cause the Company's officers, directors, employees and independent
accountants to supply on a confidential basis all information reasonably
requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in
connection with such Registration Statement;

         (j) permit any Holder of Registrable Securities which Holder, in its
sole and exclusive judgment, might be deemed to be an underwriter or a
controlling person of the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act, to participate in the preparation of such registration or
comparable statement and to permit the insertion therein of material, furnished
to the Company in writing, which in the reasonable judgment of such Holder and
its counsel should be included, provided that such material shall be furnished
under such circumstances as shall cause it to be subject to the indemnification
provisions provided pursuant to ss.7.7(b) hereof;

         (k) in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the
effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or of any order suspending or
preventing the use of any related Prospectus or suspending the qualification of
any Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement for sale in
any jurisdiction, the Company will use its best efforts promptly to obtain the
withdrawal of such order;

         (l) if requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters or any
holder of Registrable Securities in connection with any sale pursuant to a
Registration Statement, promptly incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or
post-effective amendment such information relating to such underwriting as the
managing underwriter or underwriters or such Holder reasonably requests to be
included therein, and make all required filings of such Prospectus supplement or
post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after being notified of the
matters incorporated in such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment;

         (m) cooperate with the Holders of Registrable Securities and the
managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely
preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legends)
representing Registrable Securities to be sold under such registration, and
enable such Registrable Securities to be in such


<PAGE>   22
                                      -22-


denominations and registered in such names as the managing underwriter or
underwriters, if any, or such Holders may request;

         (n) use its best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities to be
registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities
within the United States and having jurisdiction over the Company as may
reasonably be necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof or the
underwriter or underwriters, if any, to consummate the disposition of such
Registrable Securities;

         (o) use its best efforts to obtain:

                  (i) at the time of effectiveness of each registration, a
         "comfort letter" from the Company's independent certified public
         accountants covering such matters of the type customarily covered by
         "cold comfort letters" as the Holders of a Majority of the Registrable
         Securities covered by such registration and the underwriters reasonably
         request; and

                  (ii) at the time of any underwritten sale pursuant to a
         Registration Statement, a "bring-down comfort letter", dated as of the
         date of such sale, from the Company's independent certified public
         accountants covering such matters of the type customarily covered by
         comfort letters as the Holders of a Majority of the Registrable
         Securities covered by such Registration Statement and the underwriters
         reasonably request;

         (p) use its best efforts to obtain, at the time of effectiveness of
each Piggyback Registration and at the time of any sale pursuant to each
registration, an opinion or opinions, favorable in form and scope to the Holders
of a Majority of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration, from
counsel to the Company in customary form; and

         (q) otherwise comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the
Commission, and make generally available to its securityholders (as contemplated
by Section 11(a) under the Securities Act) an earnings statement satisfying the
provisions of Rule 158 under the Securities Act no later than ninety (90) days
after the end of the twelve month period beginning with the first month of the
Company's first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the
Registration Statement, which statement shall cover said twelve month period.

         SS.7.5. COOPERATION BY PROSPECTIVE SELLERS, ETC.

         (a) INFORMATION REQUESTS. Each prospective seller of Registrable
Securities will furnish to the Company in writing such information as the
Company may reasonably require from such seller in connection with any
Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities.


<PAGE>   23
                                      -23-


         (b) FAILURE TO COOPERATE. The failure of any prospective seller of
Registrable Securities to furnish any information or documents in accordance
with any provision contained in this Article VII shall not affect the
obligations of the Company under this Article VII to any remaining sellers who
furnish such information and documents unless, in the reasonable opinion of
counsel to the Company or the underwriters, such failure impairs or may impair
the viability of the offering or the legality of the Registration Statement or
the underlying offering.

         (c) SUSPENSION OF SALES. The Holders of Registrable Securities included
in any Registration Statement will not (until further notice) effect sales
thereof after receipt of telegraphic or written notice from the Company to
suspend sales to permit the Company to correct or update such Registration
Statement or Prospectus; but the obligations of the Company with respect to
maintaining any Registration Statement current and effective shall be extended
by a period of days equal to the period such suspension is in effect.

         (d) REMOVAL OF SHARES FROM REGISTRATION. At the end of any period
during which the Company is obligated to keep any Registration Statement current
and effective as provided by ss.7.4 hereof (and any extensions thereof required
by the preceding paragraph (c) of this ss.7.5), the Holders of Registrable
Securities included in such Registration Statement shall discontinue sales of
shares pursuant to such Registration Statement upon receipt of notice from the
Company of its intention to remove from registration the shares covered by such
Registration Statement which remain unsold, and such Holders shall notify the
Company of the number of shares registered which remain unsold promptly after
receipt of such notice from the Company.

         (e) WARRANTS OR OPTIONS. Notwithstanding any other provision herein to
the contrary, no Holder of Registrable Securities which constitute warrants or
options shall be required to exercise such warrants or options in connection
with any registration prior to the applicable Registration Statement becoming
effective.

         SS.7.6. REGISTRATION EXPENSES.

         (a) EXPENSES BORNE BY THE COMPANY. All costs and expenses incurred or
sustained in connection with or arising out of each registration pursuant to
ss.7.1 or ss.7.2 hereof, including, without limitation, all registration and

(including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the underwriters in
connection with the Blue Sky qualification of Registrable Securities), printing
expenses, messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company and of counsel for the sellers of Registrable Securities
(subject to the limitations contained in paragraph (b) of this ss.7.6), fees and
disbursements of all independent certified public accountants (including the
expenses relating to the preparation and delivery of any special audit or "cold
comfort" letters required by or incident to such registration), and fees and
disbursements of underwriters (excluding discounts and commissions, but

underwriters so require), the reasonable fees and


<PAGE>   24
                                      -24-


expenses of any special experts retained by the Company of its own initiative or
at the request of the managing underwriters in connection with such
registration, and fees and expenses of all (if any) other Persons retained by
the Company (all such costs and expenses being herein called, collectively, the
"REGISTRATION EXPENSES"), will be borne and paid by the Company. The Company
will, in any case, pay its internal expenses (including, without limitation, all
salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or
accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit, the expense of liability
insurance referred to above, and the fees and expenses incurred in connection
with the listing of the securities to be registered on each securities exchange
or other trading market or system on which similar securities of the Company are
then listed.

         (b) ATTORNEYS' FEES; TAXES. In connection with each registration of
Registrable Securities pursuant to this Article VII, the Company will reimburse
the Holders of Registrable Securities being registered in such registration for
the reasonable fees and disbursements of one law firm which acts as counsel
chosen by the Holders of a Majority of the Registrable Securities. The Company
will not bear the cost of nor pay for any stock transfer taxes imposed in
respect of the transfer of any Registrable Securities to any purchaser thereof
by any Holder of Registrable Securities in connection with any registration of
Registrable Securities pursuant to this Article VII.

         (c) PAYMENT BY HOLDER. To the extent that Registration Expenses
incident to any registration are, under the terms of this Article VII, not
required to be paid by the Company, each Holder of Registrable Securities
included in such registration will pay all Registration Expenses which are
clearly solely attributable to the registration of such Holder's Registrable
Securities so included in such registration, and all other Registration Expenses
not so attributable to one Holder will be borne and paid by all sellers of
securities included in such registration in proportion to the number of
securities so included by each such seller.

         SS.7.7. INDEMNIFICATION.

         (a) INDEMNIFICATION BY COMPANY. The Company will indemnify each Holder
requesting or joining in a registration and each underwriter of the securities
so registered, the officers, directors and partners of each such Person and each
Person who controls any thereof (within the meaning of the Securities Act),
against any and all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged
untrue statement) of any material fact contained in any Prospectus, offering
circular or other document incident to any registration, qualification or
compliance (or in any related Registration Statement, notification or the like)
or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in
light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not
misleading, or any violation by the Company of any rule or regulation
promulgated under the Securities Act applicable to the Company and relating to
any action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such
registration, qualification or compliance, and the Company will reimburse each
such


<PAGE>   25
                                      -25-


Holder, officer, director, partner, controlling Person, and underwriter for any
legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the
extent that any such claim, loss, damage or liability arises out of or is based
on any untrue statement or omission based upon written information furnished to
the Company in an instrument duly executed by such Holder, officer, director,
partner, controlling Person, or underwriter and stated to be exclusively and
specifically for use therein.

         (b) INDEMNIFICATION BY EACH HOLDER. Each Holder requesting or joining
in a registration will indemnify each underwriter of the securities so
registered, the Company and its officers and directors and each Person, if any,
who controls any thereof (within the meaning of the Securities Act) and their
respective successors in title and assigns against any and all claims, losses,
damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based
on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of any material fact
contained in any Prospectus, offering circular or other document incident to any
registration, qualification or compliance (or in any related Registration
Statement, notification or the like) or any omission (or alleged omission) to
state therein any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which the
statements therein were made, not misleading, and such Holder will reimburse
each underwriter, the Company and each other Person indemnified pursuant to this
paragraph (b) for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in
connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage,
liability or action; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this paragraph (b) shall apply only
if (and only to the extent that) such statement or omission was made in reliance
upon information furnished to the Company in any instrument duly executed by
such Holder and stated to be specifically for use in such Prospectus, offering
circular or other document (or related Registration Statement, notification or
the like) or any amendment or supplement thereto. The maximum liability under
this paragraph (b) of each Holder joining in any registration shall be limited
to the aggregate amount of all sales proceeds actually received by such Holder
upon the sale of such Holder's Registrable Securities in connection with such
registration.

         (c) INDEMNIFICATION PROCEEDINGS. Each party entitled to indemnification
pursuant to this ss.7.7 (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") shall give notice to the party
required to provide indemnification pursuant to this ss.7.7 (the "INDEMNIFYING
PARTY") promptly after such Indemnified Party acquires actual knowledge of any
claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying
Party (at its expense) to assume the defense of any claim or any litigation
resulting therefrom; PROVIDED that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall
conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be acceptable to the
Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at
such party's expense; and PROVIDED FURTHER, that if any Indemnified Party shall
have reasonably concluded that there may be one or more legal defenses available
to such Indemnified Party which are different from or additional to and are
inconsistent with those available to the Indemnifying Party, or that such claim
or litigation involves or could have


<PAGE>   26
                                      -26-


an effect upon matters beyond the scope of the indemnity agreement provided in
this ss.7.7, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the
defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Party and such Indemnifying
Party shall reimburse such Indemnified Party and any Person controlling such
Indemnified Party for that portion of the fees and expenses of any counsel
retained by the indemnified which are reasonably related to the matters covered
by the indemnity agreement provided in this ss.7.7; and PROVIDed, FURTHer, that
the failure by any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided in this
paragraph (c) shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under
this ss.7.7 except to the extent that the failure results in a failure of actual
notice to the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnifying Party is damaged (or the
indemnification liability of such Indemnifying Party hereunder would be
increased) solely as a result of the failure to give notice. No Indemnifying
Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the
consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter
into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the
giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from
all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. The reimbursement required
by this ss.7.7 shall be made by periodic payments during the course of the
investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expenses incurred.

         (d) CONTRIBUTION IN LIEU OF INDEMNIFICATION. If the indemnification
provided for in this ss.7.7 from the Indemnifying Party is unavailable to an
Indemnified Party hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expense (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then
the Indemnifying Party in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result
of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect
thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of
the Indemnifying Party and indemnified parties in connection with the actions
which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or
actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying and indemnified parties
shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in
question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact,
has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party
or indemnified parties, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that in no event shall the liability of any Holder hereunder be greater
in amount than the difference between the dollar amount of the proceeds received
by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such
contribution obligation and all amounts previously contributed by such Holder
with respect to such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred
to above shall be deemed to include, any legal or other fees or expenses
reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or
proceeding.

         The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this ss.7.7(d) were determined by PRO RATA allocation
or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the
equitable considerations referred to in the



<PAGE>   27
                                      -27-


immediately preceding paragraph. No Person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.

         SS.7.8. RULE 144 REQUIREMENTS; FORM S-3. The Company will use its best
efforts to take such steps as are necessary to allow the Company to become, and
remain, eligible to register securities on Form S-3 (or any comparable form
adopted by the Commission) for resale purposes, and to make publicly available
and available to the Holders of Registrable Securities, pursuant to Rule 144 or
Rule 144A of the Commission under the Securities Act, such information as shall
be necessary to enable the Holders of Registrable Securities to make sales of
Registrable Securities pursuant to such Rules. The Company will furnish to any
Holder of Registrable Securities, upon request made by such Holder at any time,
a written statement signed by the Company, addressed to such Holder, as to
whether the Company has complied with the current public information
requirements of Rule 144 or Rule 144A. The Company will, at the request of any
Holder of Registrable Securities, upon receipt from such Holder of a certificate
certifying (i) that such Holder has held such Registrable Securities for a
period of not less than one (1) year, and (ii) that such Holder has not been an
affiliate (as defined in Rule 144) of the Company for more than the ninety (90)
preceding days, remove from the stock certificates representing such Registrable
Securities that portion of any restrictive legend which relates to the
registration provisions of the Securities Act.

         SS.7.9. PARTICIPATION IN UNDERWRITTEN REGISTRATIONS. No Person may
participate in any underwritten registration pursuant to this Article VII unless
such Person (a) agrees to sell such Person's securities on the basis provided in
any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled, under the
provisions contained in this Article VII, to approve such arrangements, and (b)
completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities,
underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required by the terms of
such underwriting arrangements, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such indemnities or
underwriting agreements shall provide for indemnification or contribution
obligations of any Holder to a greater extent than the obligations of such
Holder set forth in ss.7.7(b) hereof. Any Holder of Registrable Securities to be
included in any underwritten registration shall be entitled at any time to
withdraw such Registrable Securities from such registration in the event that
such Holder shall disapprove of any of the terms of the related underwriting
agreement.

         SS.7.10. NO INCONSISTENT AGREEMENTS. The Company will not, at any time
after the effective date of this Agreement, enter into, any agreement or
contract (whether written or oral) with respect to any of its securities which
is inconsistent in any respect with the registration rights granted by the
Company to Investors pursuant to Article VII of this Agreement or otherwise
conflicts with the provisions hereof.

         SS.7.11. REGISTRABLE SECURITIES HELD BY THE COMPANY. Whenever the
consent or approval of Holders of Registrable Securities is required pursuant to
this Article VII, Registrable Securities held by the Company shall not be
counted in determining whether


<PAGE>   28
                                      -28-


such consent or approval was duly and properly given by such Holders pursuant to
and in compliance with any of the terms of Article VII of this Agreement.

         SS.7.12. TERM. The agreements of the Company contained in this Article
VII shall continue in full force and effect so long as any Holder holds any
Registrable Securities.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                           GRANT OF PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS

         The Company hereby grants to each of the Investors preemptive rights to
purchase a portion of New Securities that the Company may from time to time
after the effective date hereof propose to issue to any Person or Persons. The
preemptive rights granted to each of the Investors by this Article VIII shall be
governed by and subject to all of the terms and provisions contained in this
Article VIII:

         SS.8.1. PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS.

         (a) PROCEDURE FOR EXERCISING PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS. In the event (and on
each occasion) that the Company shall decide to undertake an issuance of New
Securities, the Company will give to each of the Investors written notice (an
"OFFER NOTICE") of the Company's decision, describing the type of New
Securities, the price, and the general terms upon which the Company has decided
to issue the New Securities. Each Investor shall have thirty (30) days from the
date on which the Company shall give the written Offer Notice to the Investors
(the "OFFER DATE") to agree to purchase such New Securities for the price and
upon the general terms specified in the Offer Notice, and in compliance with
paragraphs (c) and (d) of this ss.8.1, by giving written notice to the Company
and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased by such
Investor. If, in connection with such a proposed issuance of New Securities, any
Investor shall for any reason fail or refuse to give such written notice to the
Company within such period of thirty (30) days, such Investor shall, for all
purposes of this Article VIII, be deemed to have refused (in that particular
instance only) to purchase any of such New Securities and to have waived (in
that particular instance only) all rights of such Investor under this Article
VIII to purchase any of such New Securities.

         (b) FAILURE TO EXERCISE PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS. In the event that any
Investors shall fail or refuse to exercise in full their rights of first refusal
within said thirty (30) day period, the Company shall have one hundred twenty
(120) days thereafter to sell the quantity of New Securities which the Investors
did not agree to purchase pursuant to paragraphs (c) and (d) of this ss.8.1, at
a price and upon general terms no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than
specified in the Company's Offer Notice to each of the Investors. In the event
the Company has not sold the New Securities within said period of one hundred
twenty (120) days, the Company will not thereafter issue or sell any New
Securities without first offering such securities to each of the Investors in
the manner provided by the foregoing provisions of this Article VIII.
Notwithstanding the foregoing,


<PAGE>   29
                                      -29-


in the event that the New Securities consist of Common Stock or securities
convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, any Investors that fail or
refuse to exercise in full their preemptive rights under ss.8.1(a) shall be
entitled to participate in the sale of New Securities by selling a pro-rata
portion (based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by such Investor
(determined on a fully-diluted basis) divided by the total number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding (determined on a fully-diluted basis) prior to the
issuance of the New Securities) of the total number of securities that would
otherwise be included in the New Securities proposed to be sold; PROVIDED, that
the provisions of the foregoing sentence shall not apply to the extent that a
Registration Statement is then in effect with respect to shares of Common Stock
held by such Investor. The Company will use its best efforts to obtain the
agreement of the prospective purchaser(s) of the New Securities to the
participation of such Investors in any contemplated sale.

         (c) ALLOCATION OF NEW SECURITIES. Unless each of the Investors shall
otherwise agree in writing, New Securities to be issued by the Company on any
particular occasion shall be allocated among the Investors on the basis set
forth below in this paragraph (c) and in paragraph (d) of this ss.8.1. Each
Investor shall be entitled to purchase its Investor Percentage of any New
Securities to be issued by the Company at any time after the date hereof. As
used in this paragraph (c), in relation to any particular Investor and any
particular issue of New Securities, the term "INVESTOR PERCENTAGE" shall mean
the percentage obtained by multiplying:

                  (i) the percentage obtained by dividing (X) the total number
         of Investor Shares held or deemed held of record on the Offer Date by
         such Investor, by (Y) the total number of Investor Shares held or
         deemed held of record on the Offer Date by all Investors; by

                  (ii) the Eligible Percentage applicable to that particular
issue of New Securities.

         (d) ALLOCATION OF UNPURCHASED NEW SECURITIES. If any Investor shall
agree to purchase less than such Investor's PRO RATA portion of that part of an
issue of New Securities allocable to the Investors (as determined pursuant to
paragraph (c) of this ss.8.1), each Investor who shall be willing to purchase
more than such Investor'S PrO RAta portion of the New Securities allocable to
the Investors shall be entitled to such portion of the unallocated New
Securities as the total number of Investor Shares held or deemed held of record
by such Investor on the Offer Date bears to the total number of Investor Shares
held of record on the Offer Date by all of the Investors who shall be willing to
purchase more than their original PRO RATA portion of the New Securities
allocable to the Investors (as determined pursuant to paragraph (c) of this
ss.8.1). The procedure described in the preceding sentence for allocating New
Securities among Investors willing to purchase such New Securities shall be
repeated until all unallocated New Securities allocable to the Investors shall
have been allocated among Investors willing to purchase such unallocated New
Securities, all in compliance with the provisions contained in the preceding
sentence of this paragraph (d).
