        **NOW, THEREFORE**, the parties hereby agree as follows:

**ARTICLE I****REGISTRATION RIGHTS**
**1.1.**  **Definitions. For Purposes of this Agreement:**

        (a)  the term “Register,” “Registered,” and “Registration” refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing a registrationstatement or similar document in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such registration statement or document;

        (b)  the term “Registrable Securities” means (i) the Common Stock issuable or issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock whether or not soldpursuant to the Series A Agreement or upon exercise of the Warrants and (ii) any Common Stock issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution withrespect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, such Series A Preferred Stock, the Warrants or Common Stock, as applicable, excluding in all cases, however, any Registrable Securities sold by a person in a transaction in which such person’srights under this Article I are not assigned;

        (c)  the number of shares of “Registrable Securities then outstanding” will be determined by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding which are, andthe number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to then exercisable or convertible securities which are, Registrable Securities; 

        (d)  the term “Holder” means any person owning or having the right to acquire Registrable Securities or any permitted assignee thereof; and

        (e)  the term “Form S-3” means such form under the Act as in effect on the date of this Agreement or any registration form under the Act subsequently adoptedby the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) which permits inclusion or incorporation of substantial information by reference to other documents filed by the Company with the SEC.

**1.2.**  **Form S-3 Registration.**

        As soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof (currently anticipated to be approximately 45 days), the Company shall file with the SEC one or more RegistrationStatements on Form S-3 (or other similar form) covering the continuous sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any successor thereto (each, a “Shelf Registration Statement”), in the manner specifiedtherein. The Company shall use all reasonable efforts to cause each Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable after its filing with the SEC, and to remain effective until the earlier of (x) suchtime as all of the Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement or (y) each Holder is able to sell within any 90-day period all Registrable Securities owned by such Holder pursuant to SEC Rules as then in effect, includingRule 144 under the Securities Act, or any successor thereto (“SEC Rule 144”) (the “Effective Period”); provided that in the event that Company determines in good faith that, because it has under consideration a significant (as defined underRegulation S-X of the SEC) acquisition or disposition or other material transaction or corporate event that has not been publicly disclosed or that it is in the process of preparing for filing with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K or other form, aShelf Registration Statement may contain a material misstatement or omission, Parent may cause such Shelf Registration Statement to not be used during the period in question. The Company agrees it will use its best efforts to ensure that such deferralwill be for the shortest period of time reasonably required not exceeding, in the aggregate, 90 days in any 12-month period.

**1.3.**  **Company Registration.**

        In the event that (i) the Company fails to satisfy its obligations pursuant to Section 1.2 or (ii) for any period of not less than 30 consecutive days a Shelf RegistrationStatement may not be used for any reason, and if (but without any obligation to do so) the Company proposes to register (including for this purpose a registration effected by the Company for shareholders other than the Holders) any of its stock or othersecurities under the Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than a registration relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a Company stock plan, or a registration on any form which does notinclude substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities), the Company will, at such time, promptly give each Holder written notice of such registration.Upon the written request of each Holder given within 20 days after mailing of such notice by the Company in accordance with Section 2.5, the Company will, subject to the provisions of Section 1.7, cause to be registered under the Act all of the RegistrableSecurities that each such Holder has requested to be registered.

**1.4.**  **Obligations of the Company.**

        Except as otherwise expressly specified in this Agreement, whenever required under this Article I to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company will, asexpeditiously as reasonably practicable:

        (a)  Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statementas may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement.

        (b)  Furnish to the Holders such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Act, and such otherdocuments as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them.

        (c)  Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of suchjurisdictions as will be reasonably requested by the Holders, provided that the Company will not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such statesor jurisdictions.

        (d)  In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with themanaging underwriter of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting will also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement.

        (e)  Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered underthe Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included 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 ornecessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing.

**1.5.**  **Furnish Information.**

        It will be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Article I with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holderthat such Holder will furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, the intended method of disposition of such securities and all of the other pertinent information as will be required to effect theregistration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities.

**1.6.**  **Expenses of Registration.**

        Subject to restrictions under applicable state securities laws, all expenses other than underwriting discounts and commissions incurred in connection with registrations, filingsor qualifications pursuant to Sections 1.2 and 1.3, including (without limitation) all registration, filing and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and the reasonable fees anddisbursements of one counsel representing the Holders will be borne by the Company.

**1.7.**  **Underwriting Requirements.**

        In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company will not be required under Section 1.3 to include any of theHolders’ securities in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then the Company will havea right to limit the number of shares to such number as it will determine in good faith will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If the total amount of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by shareholders to beincluded in such offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by the Company that the Company determines in good faith is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company will be required to include in the offering only thatnumber ofsuch securities, including Registrable Securities, which the Company determines in good faith will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the securities so included to be apportioned pro rata first among selling shareholders which are Holders ofRegistrable Securities according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each such Holder or holders until all securities desired by such Holders are included, then among the other selling shareholders according to thetotal amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each other selling shareholder or in such other proportions as will mutually be agreed to by such selling shareholder; provided that any Registrable Securities held by officers anddirectors of the Company will be excluded from such registration to the extent required by such limitations). For purposes of the preceding parenthetical concerning apportionment, for any selling shareholder which is a Holder of Registrable Securities andwhich is a partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners and shareholders of such Holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners an any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons will be deemed to be asingle “Selling Shareholder,” and any pro-rata reduction with respect to such “selling shareholder” will be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such“selling shareholder,” as defined in this sentence.

**1.8.**  **Indemnification. If any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under this Article I:**

        (a)  To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, each of its directors and each of its officers, any underwriter (asdefined in the Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), against any losses, claims, damages, orliabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Act, or the Exchange Act, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements,omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”):  (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained thereinor any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of theAct, the Exchange Act, or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Act, or the Exchange Act; and the Company will pay to each such Holder, director, officer, underwriter or controlling person, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them inconnection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Subsection 1.8(a) will not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim,damage, liability, or action if 

3
such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld), nor will the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action to theextent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by any such Holder, director, officer, underwriter orcontrolling person.

        (b)  To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed theregistration statement, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in such registration statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or other Holder,against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Act or the Exchange Act insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto)arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with suchregistration; and each such Holder will pay any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this Subsection 1.8(b), in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Subsection 1.8(b) will not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder,which consent will not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that, in no event will any indemnity under this Subsection 1.8(b) exceed the proceeds from the offering net of sales commission, if any, received by such Holder.

        (c)  Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 1.8 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), suchindemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 1.8, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party will have the rightto participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party (which shall not unreasonably withholdits approval); provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) will have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses tobe paidby the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party is inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented bysuch counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, will relieve such indemnifying party ofany liability to the indemnified party under this Section 1.8, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under thisSection 1.8.

        (d)  If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.8 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect toany loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party to this Agreement, will contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of suchloss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resultedin such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party will be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrueoralleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, andopportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

        (e)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into inconnection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement will control.

        (f)  The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 1.8 will survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registrationstatement under this Article I, and otherwise.
