               2.1.1 The Company shall use its best efforts to file with the SEC within forty-five (45) calendar days from the date of the final Closing Date (the “Required Filing Date”), a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is not
available to the Company, on such other form is then available to effect a registration of all of the Registrable Securities; provided, that the Company shall convert such other form to Form S-3, or file a replacement registration statement on Form

shall state that such Registration Statement also covers such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock as may become issuable upon exercise of the Warrants or exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants pursuant to provisions to
prevent dilution resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions (the “Mandatory Registration Statement”).  The Mandatory Registration Statement shall contain,
unless otherwise required by applicable law or the SEC, the “Selling Shareholders” and “Plan of Distribution”
section of the Prospectus in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Investors based upon information provided by the selling shareholders. The Registrable Securities included in the Mandatory Registration Statement shall be registered on behalf of
the Investors set forth on Schedule A hereof.  The Mandatory Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each request for acceleration of effectiveness thereof)
shall be provided to the Investors and their counsel at least two (2) business days prior to its filing or other submission; such notice to specify the securities to be registered, the proposed numbers and amounts thereof and the date thereafter by
which the Company must receive the Investors’ written indication if any Investor does not wish to include their Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement and advising the Investors of their rights under this Section 2. The Company
shall file the Mandatory Registration Statement and cause all of the Registrable Securities (unless an Investor has indicated otherwise with respect to all or any portion of such Investor’s Registrable Securities pursuant to the preceding
sentence) to be registered under the Securities Act, in connection with the sale or other disposition by the Investors of the Registrable Securities so registered. The Company shall use its best efforts (i) to cause the Mandatory Registration
Statement, as amended, to become effective within one hundred and fifty (150) days from the Required Filing Date (the “Effectiveness Deadline”); and (ii) to maintain the
effectiveness of the Mandatory Registration Statement for a period of two (2) years from the date such registration statement is initially declared effective.


                 2.1.2 If the Mandatory Registration Statement has not been filed by the Required Filing Date and/or declared or ordered effective by the Effectiveness Deadline, the Company shall pay each Investor
liquidated damages in an amount equal to 1% of the Original Purchase Price paid by such Investor for the Securities per month (pro-rata, in each case, for partial months), which payments shall be payable at the end of each calendar month until the
earlier of (i) the date upon which the Mandatory Registration Statement is declared effective, or


4













(ii) the date on which all payments under this Section 2.1.2 reach an amount equal to 10% of the gross proceeds of the Offering. This payment may be made, at the election of the Company, in cash or in additional shares of Series C
Preferred Stock valued at the Original Purchase Price (assuming that no value is ascribed to the Warrants), provided that there are a sufficient number of authorized, but unissued shares of Common Stock into which the Series C Preferred Stock may
convert. 

          
2.2.     DEMAND REGISTRATION  

               
2.2.1 If the Mandatory Registration Statement shall not have been declared or ordered effective and the Company shall receive a written request no earlier than one hundred fifty (150) days following the Closing but no later than twenty four (24) months after the Closing from Investors holding
more than $500,000 in value (based on the Original Purchase Price) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding (the “Initiating Investor”) that the Company file a
registration statement under the Securities Act covering the registration of the resale of the Registrable Securities, then the Company shall, within thirty (30) days of the receipt thereof, give written notice of such request to all Investors, and
subject to the limitations set forth herein, effect, as expeditiously as reasonably possible, the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities that the Investors request to be registered. 


               2.2.2 The Company shall not be required to effect a registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 if (i) the Mandatory Registration Statement has been declared or ordered effective under the Securities
Act, whether or not one or more holders of Registrable Securities elected not to register all of their respective shares in the Mandatory Registration Statement, (ii) the Company has previously effected two registrations pursuant to this Section 2.2
and such previous registrations have been declared or ordered effective, or (iii) the Registrable Securities not covered by registrations pursuant to this Section 2.2 may be sold pursuant to Rule 144(b)(i) promulgated under the Securities Act or any
successor provision. Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities so requested to be registered pursuant to this Section 2.2 as soon as practicable after receipt
of the request or requests of the Investors. 


          2.3.     PIGGYBACK
RIGHTS.


               2.3.1
If the Mandatory Registration Statement shall not have been declared or ordered
effective and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the SEC a
registration statement relating to  an offering for its own account or the account
of others (which others may include any of the Investors with respect to Company
securities held by them other than Registrable Securities) under the Securities
Act of any of its equity securities  (other than on an Excluded Form), then the
Company shall send to each Investor holding Registrable Securities that have
not been covered by a registration statement that has been declared or ordered
effective (each, an “Eligible Investor”),
written notice of such determination and if, within fifteen (15) business days
after receipt of such notice any such Eligible Investor shall so request in writing,
the Company  shall include in such registration statement the Registrable Securities
requested by the Eligible Investors to be so included. Such written notice shall
state the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities by such
Eligible  Investor. If an Eligible Investor decides not to include all of its
Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter


5













filed by the Company, such Eligible Investor shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company
with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, to the extent all Registrable Securities held by such Investor have not been covered by a registration statement that has been declared or ordered
effective by the time of such subsequent registration.


                 2.3.2 If the registration statement under which the Company gives notice under this Section 2.3 is for an underwritten offering, the Company shall so advise the Eligible Investors of Registrable
Securities. In such event, the right of any such Eligible Investor to be included in a registration pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be conditioned upon such Eligible Investor’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such
Eligible Investor’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Eligible Investors proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in
customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the underwriter determines in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation of the
number of shares to be underwritten, the number of shares that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated, first, to the Company; second, to any selling shareholders that shall have exercised a demand registration right; third, on a
pro-rata basis, to the Eligible Investors and any other shareholders of the Company exercising incidental registration rights based on the total number of Registrable Securities sought to be registered in such registration by the Eligible Investors
and such other shareholder of the Company. 


                 2.3.3 If any Eligible Investor disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Eligible Investor may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter,
delivered at least ten (10) business days prior to the effective date of the registration statement.  Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration. For any Eligible
Investor which is a partnership, limited liability company, or corporation, the partners, retired partners, members, retired members and shareholders of such Eligible Investor, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired
partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing person shall be deemed to be a single “Eligible Investor,” and any pro-rata reduction with respect to such
“Eligible Investor” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “Eligible Investor,” as defined in this sentence. 


                 2.3.4 The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 2.3 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Eligible
Investor has elected to include securities in such registration. 


          2.4.     FORM S-3 REGISTRATION. In the event any Registrable Securities shall not have been registered pursuant to Section 2.1, and if the Company is eligible to use Form S-3 under the Securities Act (or
any similar successor form) and shall receive from any Investors or permitted transferees (the “S-3 Initiating Holders”) a written request or requests that the Company effect a
registration on such Form S-3, including, without limitation, pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all


6













or part of the Registrable Securities owned by the S-3 Initiating Holders or their permitted transferees (provided, that the S-3 Initiating Holders registering Registrable Securities in such registration (together with all other
holders of Registrable Securities to be included in such registration) propose to sell their Registrable Securities at an aggregate price (calculated based upon the Market Price of the Registrable Securities on the date of filing of the Form S-3
with respect to such Registrable Securities) to the public of no less than the lesser of $1,000,000 or the remaining Registrable Securities), the Company shall (i) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and any related
qualification or compliance, to all other holders of Registrable Securities; and (ii) as soon as practicable, use reasonable best efforts to file and effect such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as
would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of the Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other holder in the group of holders
joining in such request as is specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days after the holder’s receipt of such written notice from the Company. 


     3.     REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.  


          3.1.     If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions hereof to
effect or cause the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act as provided herein, the Company shall, as expeditiously as possible: 


                 3.1.1 prepare and file with the SEC, on or before the Required Filing Date the Mandatory Registration Statement required by Section 2.1 or a demand Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.2
with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become and remain effective (pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act) as soon as practicable after such filing (provided that, before
filing a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company shall furnish to the Investors copies of all such documents proposed to be filed); 


                 3.1.2 prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be
necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective, true and correct in all material respects during the Registration Period.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Registration Period” means the period commencing with the effective date
and ending on the earlier of (i) the sale of all Registrable Securities covered thereby, (ii) the date upon which the Investors may sell the Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act without regard to volume
restrictions, or (iii) the expiration of the twenty four (24) months after Closing or such shorter period as shall be necessary to complete the distribution of the securities covered thereby, and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act
with respect to the sale or other disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Investors in such Registration Statement; 


                 3.1.3 permit the Investors and their counsel to review and comment upon all Registration Statements at least two (2) business days prior to its filing with the SEC and all amendments and supplements
to all Registration Statements (except for documents incorporated


7













by reference therein) within a reasonable number of days prior to their filing with the SEC; 


                 3.1.4 submit to the SEC, promptly after the Company learns that no review of the Registration Statement will be made by the staff of the SEC (the “Staff”) or that the Staff has no further comments on the Registration Statement, as the case may be, a request for acceleration of effectiveness of the Registration Statement to a time and date not
later than forty eight (48) hours after the submission of such request; 


                 3.1.5 furnish to each Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement, and to the Placement Agent’s counsel and each underwriter of the securities being sold by
the Investors such number of copies of such Registration Statement and of each such amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits), such number of copies of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including
each preliminary prospectus), in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents, as such counsel and underwriter may reasonably request, in substantially the form in which they are proposed to be filed with the SEC,
in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by the participating Investors. In the case of all Registration Statements referred to in Section 2, the Company shall furnish to each Investor which
requests (i) a copy of any request to accelerate the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or amendment thereto, (ii) on the date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, a notice stating that the Registration
Statement or amendment has been declared effective, and (iii) such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, and all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents as such Investor may reasonably request in
order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investor. In responding to comments from the staff of the SEC, the Company shall cooperate with any Investor that notifies the Company that it desires to be consulted
with respect to such process. To the extent that issues raised by the staff of the SEC have an impact primarily on any such Investor rather than the Company, the Company shall give reasonable deference to such Investor’s requests with respect
to the process and substance of responses with respect to such issues; 


                 3.1.6 use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of
such jurisdictions in the United States as each Investor who holds Registrable Securities being offered reasonably requests, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such
registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at
all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection
therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3.1.6; 


                 3.1.7 subject to Section 3.1.6, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other

material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing, and promptly prepare and furnish to the participating Investors
and each underwriter a reasonable number of copies of a prospectus supplemented or amended so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not include 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 not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing; 


                3.1.9 otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC; 


                3.1.10 if the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange, or quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board (“OTC BB”), as the case may be, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement to be listed on the national securities exchange, or quoted on the OTC BB, as the case may be (if such Registrable Securities are not already so listed or
quoted), if the listing or quoting of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange or market; 


                3.1.11 provide a transfer agent and registrar, which may be a single entity, for the Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of the Registration Statement; 


                3.1.12 in the case of an underwritten offering, enable the Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the underwriters may request at least one (1) business

Investors may request; 


                3.1.14 notify the Investors of any stop order threatened, to the knowledge of the Company, or issued by the SEC (and the Company shall notify the Investors of the resolution of any issued stop order)
and take all actions reasonably necessary to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered; 


                3.1.15 make available for inspection by the Investors and their representatives and advisors (collectively, the “Inspectors”)

of one counsel selected by the Placement Agent.


     5.     INDEMNIFICATION.  


          5.1. The Company shall, and hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless, to the
 fullest extent permitted by law, each Investor and each Placement Agent (and their respective officers, directors, managers, members, partners, stockholders, employees, agents and advisors) and each Person who controls any
Investor or Placement Agent within the meaning of the Securities Act (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or
several, to which any such Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and all rules and regulations under each such act, any other federal or state statute, law or regulation at common law or otherwise, insofar
as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in any Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary, final or summary prospectus, together with the documents incorporated by reference therein (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have filed with
the SEC, any amendment thereof or supplement thereto), or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading, or (iii) any violation by the Company of any federal, state or common law rule or regulation applicable to the Company and relating to action of or inaction by the Company in connection with any such
registration including the failure to deliver any document required herein to be delivered, to an Investor and a Placement Agent; and in each such case, the Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Parties for any reasonable legal or other expenses
as such reasonable expenses are incurred by any of them in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising, proving or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense, action or proceeding; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be liable to any such Indemnified Party insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses, actions or proceedings are caused by any untrue statement or material omission to provide information pursuant to Section 5.2
made in reliance on and in conformity with any written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party to be furnished under the Section 5.2 or as a result of the failure


11













of the Indemnified Party to furnish a prospectus to a purchaser which the Company previously furnished to Indemnified Party in a timely manner. 


           5.2. In connection with any Registration Statement in which any Investor and the Placement Agent is participating, such participating parties shall furnish to the Company in writing such information
as shall be reasonably requested by the Company for use in any such Registration Statement or prospectus and shall indemnify and hold harmless, severally and not jointly, to the extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers, directors,
employees, agents, advisors and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses, actions or proceedings resulting from any untrue
statement of a material fact or any omission of a material fact with respect to information expressly requested by the Company and required to be stated in the Registration Statement or prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof
or supplement thereto, or necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstance under which they were made (in the case of a prospectus) not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
statement or omission with respect to information expressly requested by the Company is made in reliance on and in conformity with any information so furnished in writing or to be furnished under this Section 5.2 by such participating Investor
expressly for use therein.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.2, the Investors and the Placement Agent shall not be liable for any indemnification obligation under this Agreement in excess of the aggregate amount of net proceeds
received by such persons from the sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement. 


           5.3. Any Person entitled to indemnification under the provisions of this Section 5 shall (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification
but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have pursuant to this Section 5 to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result of such failure, and (ii) unless
in the reasonable judgment of counsel for such indemnified party a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim, with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; and if such defense is so assumed, such indemnifying party shall not enter into any settlement without the consent of the indemnified party if such settlement attributes liability to the
indemnified party and such indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its consent. In the event an indemnifying party shall not be entitled, or elects not, to assume the defense of a claim, such
indemnifying party shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one law firm for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party hereunder in respect of such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any such counsel a
conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties in respect to such claim. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any
indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such indemnified party. 


           5.4. An indemnifying party shall make payments of all amounts required to be made pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5 to or for the account of the indemnified party from time to
time promptly upon receipt of bills or invoices relating thereto or when otherwise due and payable. 


12













     6.     CONTRIBUTION. To provide for
just and equitable contribution, if (i) an Indemnified Party makes a claim for
indemnification pursuant to Section 5 but it is found in a final judicial determination,
 not subject to further appeal, that such indemnification may not be enforced
in such case, even though this Agreement expressly provides indemnification in
such case, or (ii) any Indemnified Party or indemnifying party seeks contribution
under the  Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or otherwise, then the Company (including
for this purpose any contribution made by or on behalf of any officer, director,
employee or agent for the Company, or any Controlling Person of the Company),
on the one  hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, shall contribute
to the losses, liabilities, claims, damages, and expenses whatsoever to which
any of them may be subject, in such proportions as are appropriate to reflect
the relative benefits  received by the Company, on the one hand, and the indemnified
party, on the other hand; provided, however, that if applicable law does not
permit such allocation, then other relevant equitable considerations such as
the relative fault of the Company  and the indemnified party in connection with
the facts which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, and expenses
shall also be considered. No Person liable for a fraudulent misrepresentation
shall be entitled to contribution from any  person who is not liable for such
fraudulent misrepresentation. Anything in this Section 6 to the contrary notwithstanding,
no party shall be liable for contribution with respect to the settlement of any
claim or action effected without its written  consent. This Section 6 is intended
to supersede any right to contribution under the Securities Act, the Exchange
Act, or otherwise unless such statute makes such right exclusive. The Company,
the Investors and the Placement Agent agree that it  would not be just and equitable
if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were determined solely by pro-rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of
the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 6.  Notwithstanding
the provisions of this Section 6, each of the Investors and the Placement Agent
shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount such Investor
or Placement Agent would have been required to pay to an indemnified  party if
the indemnity under Section 5.2 was available. The Investors’ and the Placement
Agent’s obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 6 are several
and not joint.


     7.     RULE 144. The Company covenants
that, during the Registration Period, it shall file the reports required to be
filed under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
 adopted by the SEC thereunder (or, in the event that the Company is not required
to file such reports, it shall make publicly available information as set forth
in Rule 144(c)(2) promulgated under the Securities Act), or to the extent required
from  time to time to enable the Investors and the Placement Agent to sell their
Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the
limitation of the exemption provided by (i) Rule 144 under the Securities Act,
as such Rule  may be amended from time to time, or (ii) any similar rule or regulation
hereafter adopted by the SEC (collectively, “Rule
144”).


     8.     REGISTRATION RIGHTS OF OTHERS.
If the Company shall at any time hereafter provide any Person any rights with
respect to the registration of any securities of the Company under the Securities
Act,  such rights shall not permit any such securities to become registered during
the period between Closing and the date that is [one hundred eighty (180)] days
after the Mandatory Registration Statement becomes effective or, in any other
manner, be  superior to the rights provided herein to the Investors and the Placement
Agent.


13













     9.     REPORTING STATUS AND LISTING.  


          9.1. Until the date on which the Investors shall have sold all of their
 Registrable Securities, the Company shall file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act, and the Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the Exchange Act
even if the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would otherwise permit such termination. 


          9.2. The Company shall maintain the eligibility for quotation of the Common Stock on the OTC BB market (other than any criteria of eligibility that is beyond the Company’s control, such as its
stock price). Subject to applicable law, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall take any action which would be reasonably expected to result in the delisting or suspension of the Common Stock on the OTC BB market. The Company shall
pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligations under this section. 


     10.     TRANSFER OF REGISTRATION
RIGHTS. If and to the extent that any Investor or the Placement Agent sells or
otherwise disposes of Registrable Securities or warrants exercisable for Registrable
 Securities in any transaction that does not require registration under the Securities
Act (other than a transaction exempt under Rule 144), the rights of the Investor
or the Placement Agent hereunder with respect to such Registrable Securities
shall  be assignable to any transferee of such Registrable Securities; provided,
however, that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound by all the terms
and conditions of this Agreement.


     11.     MISCELLANEOUS.  


          11.1. The registration rights provided to the Investors of Registrable Securities
shall be in effect whenever such Person owns of record such Registrable Securities. 


           11.2. A Person is deemed to be an Investor in Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns of record such Registrable Securities.  If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or
elections from two or more Persons with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from the registered owner of such Registrable Securities. 


           11.3. All notices, offers, acceptance and any other acts under this Agreement shall be in writing, and shall be sufficiently given if delivered to the addressees in person, by Federal Express or
similar receipted overnight delivery, or by facsimile or e-mail delivery followed by a copy sent by Federal Express or similar receipted overnight delivery, as follows:

proceeding commenced by a Person in a different jurisdiction, or (ii) if such party has first brought such claim or proceeding in such court sitting in Manhattan, New York and both the state courts and the federal courts sitting in Manhattan, New
York have denied jurisdiction over such claim or proceeding.  Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via
registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and

waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
