to Rule 415. The Registration Statement required hereunder shall be on Form S-3

another appropriate form in accordance herewith). The Registration Statement
required hereunder shall contain (except if otherwise directed by the Holders)
the "PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION" attached hereto as ANNEX A. The Company shall cause
the Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective as provided
herein. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the
Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as
promptly as possible after the filing thereof, but in any event not later than


                                       2
<PAGE>

the Effectiveness Date, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
keep the Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act
until the date which is two years after the Closing Date or such earlier date
when all Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement have been
sold or may be sold without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k) as
determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to
such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company's transfer agent and the
affected Holders (the "EFFECTIVENESS PERIOD").

         (b) If: (i) a Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to the
earlier of (A) the 30th day following the Closing Date and (B) the Filing Date
(if the Company files a Registration Statement without affording the Holder the
opportunity to review and comment on the same as required by Section 3(a), the
Company shall not be deemed to have satisfied this clause (i)), or (ii) the
Company fails to file with the Commission a request for acceleration in
accordance with Rule 461 promulgated under the Securities Act, within five
Trading Days of the date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing,
whichever is earlier) by the Commission that a Registration Statement will not
be "reviewed," or not subject to further review, or (iii) prior to the date when
such Registration Statement is first declared effective by the Commission, the
Company fails to file a pre-effective amendment and otherwise respond in writing
to comments made by the Commission in respect of such Registration Statement
within twenty Trading Days after the receipt of comments by or notice from the
Commission that such amendment is required in order for a Registration Statement
to be declared effective, or (iv) a Registration Statement filed or required to
be filed hereunder is not declared effective by the Commission on or before the
Effectiveness Date, or (v) after a Registration Statement is first declared
effective by the Commission, it ceases for any reason to remain continuously
effective as to all Registrable Securities for which it is required to be
effective, or the Holders are not permitted to utilize the Prospectus therein to
resell such Registrable Securities, for in any such cases fifteen Trading Days
(which need not be consecutive days) in the aggregate during any12-month period
(any such failure or breach being referred to as an "EVENT," and for purposes of
clause (i) or (iv) the date on which such Event occurs, or for purposes of
clause (ii) the date on which such five Trading Day period is exceeded, or for
purposes of clauses (iii) the date which such twenty Trading Day period is
exceeded, or for purposes of clause (v) the date on which such fifteen Trading
Day period is exceeded being referred to as "EVENT DATE"), then in addition to
any other rights the Holders may have hereunder or under applicable law: (x) on
each such Event Date the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as
liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 2% of the aggregate purchase
price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for any Registrable
Securities then held by such Holder; and (y) on each monthly anniversary of each
such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date)
until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay to each Holder an
amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 2% of the
aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement
for any Registrable Securities then held by such Holder. Such liquidated damages

                                       3
<PAGE>

shall be pro-rated on a daily basis for Events that occur and exist for only
part of a month. If the Company fails to pay any liquidated damages pursuant to
this Section in full within seven days after the date payable, the Company will
pay interest thereon at a rate of 18% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount
that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily
from the date such liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such
interest thereon, are paid in full.

3. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES

the Commission relating to the Registration Statement; and (iv) comply in all
material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act
with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by the

such notice in writing promptly following the day (i)(A) when a Prospectus or
any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration
Statement is proposed to be filed; (B) when the Commission notifies the Company
whether there will be a "review" of the Registration Statement and whenever the
Commission comments in writing on the Registration Statement (the Company shall
upon request provide true and complete copies thereof and all written responses
thereto to each of the Holders); and (C) with respect to the Registration


                                       4
<PAGE>

Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective;
(ii) of any request by the Commission or any other Federal or state governmental
authority during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for
amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or Prospectus or for
additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the Commission or any other
federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement covering any or all of the
Registrable Securities or the initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose;
(iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the
suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the
Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or
threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; and (v) of the occurrence of any
event or passage of time that makes the financial statements included in the
Registration Statement ineligible for inclusion therein or any statement made in
the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed
to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that
requires any revisions to the Registration Statement, Prospectus or other
documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus,
as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state any 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.

         (d) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the issuance of,
or, if issued, obtain the withdrawal of (i) any order suspending the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the
qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable
Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable moment.

         (e) Furnish to each Holder, without charge, at least one conformed copy
of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereto, including financial
statements and schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be

documents with the Commission.

         (f) Promptly deliver to each Holder, without charge, as many copies of
the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of prospectus) and each
amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons may reasonably request in
connection with resales by the Holder of Registrable Securities. The Company
hereby consents to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement
thereto by each of the selling Holders in connection with the offering and sale
of the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus and any amendment or
supplement thereto, except after the giving on any notice pursuant to Section
3(c).

         (g) Prior to any resale of Registrable Securities by a Holder, use its
commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify of such Registrable
Securities for the resale by the Holder under the securities or Blue Sky laws of
such jurisdictions within the United States as any Holder reasonably requests in

                                       5
<PAGE>

writing, to keep each the Registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom)
effective during the Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or
things reasonably necessary to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of
the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement; PROVIDED, that
the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any
jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, subject the Company to any
material tax in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or file a
general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.

         (h) If requested by the Holders, cooperate with the Holders to
facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing
Registrable Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to the
Registration Statement, which certificates shall be free, to the extent

such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such
names as any such Holders may request.

         (i) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 3(c)(v),
as promptly as reasonably possible, prepare a supplement or amendment, including
a post-effective amendment, to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the
related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated
therein by reference, and file any other required document so that, as
thereafter delivered, neither the Registration Statement nor such Prospectus
will contain an 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 under which they were made, not misleading.

         (j) Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission.

         (k) The Company may require each selling Holder to furnish to the
Company a certified statement as to the number of shares of Common Stock

thereof that has voting and dispositive control over the Shares.

5. INDEMNIFICATION

         (a) INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY. The Company shall, notwithstanding
any termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the
officers, directors, agents, partners and employees of each of them, each Person
who controls any such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, agents,
partners and employees of each such controlling Person, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees) and expenses (collectively, "LOSSES"), as incurred, to the
extent arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any
form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any
preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged
omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus or form of prospectus or
supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made)
not misleading, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that (1) such
untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding such
Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use
therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder or such
Holder's proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was
reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Holder expressly for use in
the Registration Statement, such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any
amendment or supplement thereto (it being understood that the Holder has
approved Annex A hereto for this purpose) or (2) in the case of an occurrence of
an event of the type specified in Section 3(c)(ii)-(v), the use by such Holder
of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such
Holder in writing that the Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the
receipt by such Holder of the Advice contemplated in Section 6(c). The Company
shall notify the Holders promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any
Proceeding of which the Company is aware in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

         (b) INDEMNIFICATION BY HOLDERS. Each Holder shall, severally and not
jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers,
agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning
of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the
directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling Persons, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as
incurred, to the extent arising out of or based upon: (x) such Holder's failure
to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act or (y)
any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or any form of prospectus, or in any

                                       7
<PAGE>

amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out
of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading
(i) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or
omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by such Holder
to the Company specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or such
Prospectus or (ii) to the extent that (1) such untrue statements or omissions
are based solely upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to
the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such
information relates to such Holder or such Holder's proposed method of
distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved
in writing by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement (it
being understood that the Holder has approved Annex A hereto for this purpose),
such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement
thereto or (2) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in
Section 3(c)(ii)-(v), the use by such Holder of an outdated or defective
Prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing that the
Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder of
the Advice contemplated in Section 6(c). In no event shall the liability of any
selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net
proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities
giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

         (c) CONDUCT OF INDEMNIFICATION PROCEEDINGS. If any Proceeding shall be
brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an
"INDEMNIFIED PARTY"), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person
from whom indemnity is sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") in writing, and the
Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense thereof, including
the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and
the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense
thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice
shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities
pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be
finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is
not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have prejudiced
the Indemnifying Party.

         An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in
any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and
expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or
Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such
fees and expenses; (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to
assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named
parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both
such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party
shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to
exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the

                                       8
<PAGE>

Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the
expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the
right to assume the defense thereof and the reasonable fees and expenses of one
separate counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party). The
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding
effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the
Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of
which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims
that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.

         All reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including
reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with
investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not
inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as
incurred, within ten Trading Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying
Party; PROVIDED, that the Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the
Indemnifying Party for that portion of such fees and expenses applicable to such
actions for which such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification
hereunder, determined based upon the relative faults of the parties.

         (d) CONTRIBUTION. If a claim for indemnification under Section 5(a) or
5(b) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party (by reason of public policy or
otherwise), then each 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, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and
Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that
resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party 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 or omission
or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to
information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the
parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or
payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject
to the limitations set forth in Section 5(c), any reasonable attorneys' or other
reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any
Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or
expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to
such party in accordance with its terms.

         The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account
the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(d), no Holder shall be required
to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the


                                       9
<PAGE>

proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable
Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that such
Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, except in the case of fraud by
such Holder.

         The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are
in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the
Indemnified Parties.

6. MISCELLANEOUS

         (a) REMEDIES. In the event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder,
of any of their obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the Company, as
the case may be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by
law and under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to
specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company and each
Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation for
any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this
Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any action for
specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the defense that
a remedy at law would be adequate.

         (b) NO PIGGYBACK ON REGISTRATIONS. Except with the consent of the
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or as set forth on SCHEDULE 6(B) attached hereto, neither
the Company nor any of its security holders (other than the Holders in such
capacity pursuant hereto) may include securities of the Company in a
Registration Statement other than the Registrable Securities, and the Company
shall not after the date hereof enter into any agreement providing any such
right to any of its security holders. Except as set forth in the SEC Reports, no
Person has any right to cause the Company to effect the registration under the
Securities Act of any securities of the Company. Other than on Form S-8, the
Company shall not file any other registration statement until after the
Effective Date.

         (c) COMPLIANCE. Each Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply
with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to
it in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the
Registration Statement.

         (d) DISCONTINUED DISPOSITION. Each Holder agrees by its acquisition of
such Registrable Securities that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of
the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 3(c), such Holder
will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities under the
Registration Statement until such Holder's receipt of the copies of the
supplemented Prospectus and/or amended Registration Statement or until it is
advised in writing (the "ADVICE") by the Company that the use of the applicable
Prospectus may be resumed, and, in either case, has received copies of any
additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference in such Prospectus or Registration Statement. The
Company may provide appropriate stop orders to enforce the provisions of this
paragraph.

         (e) PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATIONS. If at any time during the Effectiveness
Period there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the
Registrable Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with
the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own
account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity
securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the
Securities Act) 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 the stock option or other employee
benefit plans, then the Company shall send to each Holder a written notice of
such determination and, if within fifteen days after the date of such notice,
