the registration of a specified number of their Registrable Securities, the
Company shall, as promptly as practicable and in any event not later than 90
days after the Company's receipt of such notice, prepare and file with the
Commission under the Securities Act a Registration Statement (including by means
of a shelf registration pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (a "Shelf
Registration Statement") if so requested in such notice (but, in the case of a
shelf registration, only if the Company is then eligible to use such a shelf
registration and if Form S-2 or Form S-3 (or any successor forms) is then
available to the Company) with respect to the Registrable Securities to which
such notice relates, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such
Registration Statement to be declared effective at the earliest practicable date
and to prepare and make available a Prospectus meeting the requirements of
Section 10(a) of the Securities Act and providing for the method of disposition
determined pursuant to Section 1(a)(ii) for such period as may be required by
the Securities Act, but in no event beyond the period specified in Section
1(a)(iii); provided, that the Company will not be required to effect any such
registration within the period beginning on the effective date of a Registration
Statement filed by the Company on its behalf or for the account of any other
Person covering a firm commitment Underwritten Offering and ending on the later
of (A) 90 days after such effective date and (B) the expiration of any lock-up
period required by the underwriters, if any, in connection therewith. Subject to
Section 1(a)(iii) below, each of the Morgan Holders, the 1818/Progressive/ML
Holders, the Prudential Holders and IronBrand may make two requests for
registration pursuant to this Section 1(a)(i); provided that the number of such
permissible requests shall be increased as set forth in Sections 1(c)(ii)(A) and
1(c)(iv) and provided no such holders shall be entitled to make such a request
while any other Registration Statement (other than a Shelf Registration
Statement) with the Commission is on file prior to its becoming effective or
within 90 days after such a Registration Statement has been declared effective
or in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement while such registration is on
file prior to being declared effective until 90 days after such Registration
Statement ceases to be effective.

                        (ii)        If a request for registration is made 
pursuant to Section 1(a)(i), the Company shall promptly give written notice of
such request to all Demand Holders who did not participate in such request; and
each Demand Holders Group shall have the right, subject to Section 1(a)(iii), by
giving written notice to the Company promptly (and in any event within 30 days
after such notice is given by the Company), to join in such request and to have
included in the Registration Statement to be filed by the Company pursuant to
such request such number of Registrable Securities as such holders shall specify
in such notice; and the method of distribution of the Registrable Securities to
be included in such Registration Statement under Section 1(a)(i) shall be
selected by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities with respect
to which the request for registration was made under Section 1(a)(i).



                                        2
<PAGE>

                       (iii) any Demand Holder Group which shall have given the
Company a notice pursuant to Section 1(a)(i) above and all of whose shares
requested to be included shall have been included in the Registration Statement
at the time it is declared effective shall not be deemed to have used one of its
requests for registration (A) unless the Registration Statement with respect
thereto has become effective and remained effective in compliance with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement until such time as
all of such Registrable Securities have been disposed of in accordance with the
intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in
such Registration Statement; provided, that, such period need not exceed 180
days, (B) if after it has become effective, such registration is interfered with
by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or
other governmental agency or court for any reason not attributable to the Demand
Holders and has not thereafter become effective, or (C) if the conditions to
closing specified in the underwriting agreement, if any, entered into in
connection with such registration are not satisfied or waived, other than by
reason of a failure on the part of the Demand Holders.

                        (iv)        The Company may delay the filing of a 
Registration Statement requested pursuant to this Section 1(a) if, in its
reasonable judgment, (A) the filing of such Registration Statement at such time
would adversely affect or require the Company to disclose in the Registration
Statement a proposed financing, reorganization or recapitalization, or pending
negotiations relating to a merger, consolidation, acquisition or similar
transaction, or otherwise adversely affect the Company; or (B) financial
statements meeting the requirements of Regulation S-X are not available at such
time because of any such pending proposal or negotiations; provided, however,
that the right of the Company pursuant to clauses (A) and (B) of this subsection
(iv) to delay the filing of a Registration Statement shall not extend for more
than 90 days from the date that notice is given pursuant to Section 1(a)(i)
requesting registration. The Company shall promptly give the holders of
Registrable Securities requesting registration thereof pursuant to Sections
1(a)(1) or 1(a)(ii) written notice of such determination, containing a general
statement of the reasons for such postponement and an approximation of the
anticipated delay. If the Company shall so postpone the filing of a Registration
Statement, any Demand Holder Group requesting registration thereof pursuant to
Section 1(a)(i) shall have the right to withdraw the request for registration by
giving written notice to the Company within 15 days after receipt of the notice
of postponement and, in the event of such withdrawal, such request shall not be
counted for purposes of the requests for registration to which holders of
Registrable Securities are entitled pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof.




                                        3

         (b) Incidental Registration. (i) In addition to, and independent of the
rights afforded by Section 1(a), prior to filing with the Commission any
Registration Statement (other than a Registration Statement on Form S-4 or S-8
or any successor forms to such Forms) with respect to (A) any public offering by
and for the account of the Company of its equity securities or any securities
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity securities or
(B) any public offering by the Company for the account of any holders of equity
securities of the Company, of the Company's equity securities or any securities
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity securities, the
Company shall notify each holder of the Registrable Securities of such proposed
filing, specifying whether such offering is to be an Underwritten Offering. Any
such holder wishing to have any of such holder's Registrable Securities included
in such Registration Statement shall promptly (and in any event within 30 days
after such notice is given by the Company) give written notice to the Company
requesting registration of such holder's Registrable Securities, specifying the
number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered and describing the
proposed method of disposition thereof, and if the proposed offering is to be an
Underwritten Offering and such holder wishes to participate therein, specifying
the number of Registrable Securities which such holder wishes to dispose of
pursuant to such Underwritten Offering.

                        (ii)  If the proposed public offering as to which 
notice is given by the Company pursuant to Section 1(b)(i) is other than an
Underwritten Offering, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
register the Registrable Securities requested to be included in its Registration
Statement and, in connection therewith, to prepare and make available a
Prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act for
such period as may be required by the Securities Act.

                       (iii) At any time prior to the time that a Registration
Statement as to which notice has been given by the Company pursuant to Section
1(b) has been filed by the Company or, if filed, has been declared effective,
the Company may determine not to file, or may withdraw, such Registration
Statement, in either of which events the Company shall have no obligation
pursuant to this Section 1(b) to register any Registrable Securities in
connection with such proposed Registration Statement.

         (c) Underwritten Offerings. If the proposed method of disposition of
Registrable Securities as to which notice is given by the holders of Registrable
Securities under Sections 1(a)(i) and 1(a)(ii), collectively, or the proposed
public offering as to which notice is given by the Company pursuant to Section
1(b)(i) is to be an Underwritten Offering:

                         (i)        the Company shall request the underwriter(s)
participating in such offering to purchase and sell all Registrable Securities
the disposition of which pursuant to



                                        4
<PAGE>



such Underwritten Offering shall have been requested by the holders thereof in
notices given pursuant to Section 1(a)(i), 1(a)(ii) or 1(b)(i), as the case may
be;

                        (ii) (A) each holder of Registrable Securities giving a
notice pursuant to Section 1(a)(i) or 1(a)(ii), as the case may be, agrees that,
by the giving of such notice, if the underwriter(s) desire(s) to purchase any of
the Registrable Securities requested by such holder to be purchased, such holder
shall sell such Registrable Securities to such underwriter(s) pursuant to an
underwriting agreement to be entered into by and among the Company, the
underwriter(s), such holder and any other holders of securities of the Company
participating in such Underwritten Offering, unless, upon written notice to the
Company and the managing underwriter given at least five Business Days prior to
the date that the Registration Statement with respect to such offering is
proposed to become effective (or any later proposed effective date), such holder
withdraws its Registrable Securities from such Underwritten Offering; provided,
that, if the Morgan Holders, IronBrand, the Prudential Holders or the
1818/Progressive/ML Holders (with respect to a registration requested under
Section 1(a)(i)) withdraw the Registrable Securities requested by such holders
pursuant to Section 1(a)(i) to be included in such Underwritten Offering because
the underwriter(s) have advised the Company in writing that the number of
Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the
number of such securities that can be sold in such offering within a price range
acceptable to such holders, then such request for registration shall be
withdrawn as to all holders of Registrable Securities of the type held by the
holders requesting such withdrawal and the number of requests for registration
that may be made by such Demand Holder Group pursuant to 1(a)(i) should be
increased by one, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, all of the costs incurred by such holders in connection with such
registration shall be paid by the Company; and, provided, further, if any holder
of Registrable Securities requesting registration of such securities pursuant to
Section 1(a)(i) or 1(a)(ii) withdraws its request for registration for any
reason that is not based on such advice from the underwriter(s), then,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any expenses
incident to the Company's preparation in accordance with this Agreement for the
registration of such Registrable Securities so withdrawn shall be borne entirely
by the holders of such Registrable Securities, pro rata among such holders
requesting such withdrawal, in the proportion that the number of Registrable
Securities requested by each such holder to be included in such Underwritten
Offering and so withdrawn bears to the total number of Registrable Securities
requested to be included in such Underwritten Offering and so withdrawn.

                           (B)      each holder of Registrable Securities giving
a notice pursuant to Section 1(b)(i) agrees that, by the giving of such notice,
if the underwriter(s) desire(s) to purchase any of the Registrable Securities
requested by such holder to be purchased, such



                                        5
<PAGE>

holder shall sell such Registrable Securities to such underwriter(s) pursuant to
an underwriting agreement to be entered into by and among the Company, the
underwriter(s), such holder and any other holders of securities of the Company
participating in such Underwritten Offering, unless, upon written notice to the
Company and the managing underwriter given at least five Business Days prior to
the date that the Registration Statement with respect to such offering is
proposed to become effective (or any later proposed effective date), such holder
withdraws its Registrable Securities from such Underwritten Offering.

                       (iii)        if the underwriter(s) elect(s) to purchase 
less than all securities (including Registrable Securities) which it is
requested to purchase in connection with such offering (or if, in the judgment
of the Company, on the written advice of such underwriter(s), the inclusion of
all such securities in such Underwritten Offering would adversely affect the
proposed public offering by and for the account of the Company), the Company
shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause purchases, if any, by such
underwriter(s), (A) if such Underwritten Offering is the result of a request for
registration pursuant to Section 1(a)(i) or 1(b)(i)(B), first, of securities to
be offered for the account of the Demand Holders requesting inclusion pursuant
to Sections 1(a)(i) and 1(a)(ii), to be made pro rata according to the number of
securities requested by each such holder to be included in the Underwritten
Offering, second, of securities to be offered for the account of the Company,
third, of securities to be offered for the account of FSA and the Partners, to
be made pro rata according to the number of securities requested by each such
holder to be included in the Underwritten Offering, and fourth, of securities to
be offered for the account of Persons other than (1) the Company, (2) the Demand
Holders who requested inclusion pursuant to Sections 1(a)(i) and 1(a)(ii) and
(3) FSA and the Partners, to be made pro rata according to the number of
securities requested by such other Persons to be included in the Underwritten
Offering, and (B) if such Underwritten Offering is the result of a request for
registration pursuant to Section 1(b)(i)(A), first, of securities to be offered
for the account of the Company, second, of securities to be offered for the
account of Demand Holders to be made pro rata according to the number of
securities requested by each such holder to be included in the Underwritten
Offering, third, of securities to be offered for the account of FSA and the
Partners to be made pro rata according to the number of securities requested by
such holders to be included in the Underwritten Offering, and fourth, of
securities to be offered for the account of Persons other than (1) the Company,
(2) the Demand Holders and (3) FSA and the Partners, to be made pro rata
according to the number of securities requested by such other Persons to be
included in the Underwritten Offering.

                        (iv)        if (A) pursuant to Section 1(c)(iii), any of
the Registrable Securities requested by any Demand Holder Group to be disposed
of pursuant to any Underwritten Offering shall not have been purchased by the
underwriter(s) thereunder and (B) the



                                        6
<PAGE>

Underwritten Offering is the result of a request for registration pursuant to
Section 1(a)(i), then the number of permissible requests for registration that
may be made pursuant to such Section 1(a)(i) by such Demand Holder Group shall
be increased by one.

         (d) Restrictions on Public Sale by Holder. Each holder whose
Registrable Securities are covered by a Registration Statement filed pursuant to
this Section 1 agrees, upon the request of the underwriter(s) in any
Underwritten Offering permitted pursuant to Section 8, not to effect any public
sale or distribution of securities of the Company of the same class as the
securities, or any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for
such securities, included in such Registration Statement, including a sale
pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (except as part of such
registration), during the 10-day period prior to, and during the 90-day period
(or such longer period, not exceeding 180 days, as is required by the
underwriter(s)) beginning on, the closing date of any such Underwritten Offering
made pursuant to such Registration Statement, to the extent timely notified in
writing by the Company or such underwriter(s); provided, that all other Persons
selling securities in such Underwritten Offering and all officers and directors
of the Company shall enter into agreements providing for the same restriction on
a public sale as described herein.

         The foregoing provisions shall not apply to any holder of Registrable
Securities if such holder is prevented by applicable statute, regulation or
preexisting contractual or fiduciary duty from entering into any such agreement.

         (e) Restrictions on Sale of Securities by the Company. The Company
agrees not to effect any public or private offer, sale or distribution of its
equity securities or any security convertible into or exchangeable or
exercisable for such equity security, including a sale pursuant to Regulation D
under the Securities Act, during the 10-day period prior to, and during the
90-day period (or such longer period, not exceeding 180 days, as is required by
the underwriter(s)) beginning on, the closing date of each Underwritten Offering
permitted pursuant to Section 8, to the extent timely and reasonably so
requested in writing by the underwriter(s) (except as part of such registration,
if permitted, or pursuant to registrations on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor
forms to such Forms or pursuant to an issuance of equity securities of the
Company where such equity securities are exempted from the Securities Act
pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) thereof).

         (f) Amendments. Upon the occurrence of any event that would cause any
Registration Statement (i) to contain a material misstatement or omission or
(ii) not to be effective and usable for resale of Registrable Securities during
the period that such Registration Statement is required to be effective and
usable, the Company shall promptly file an amendment to the Registration
Statement, in the case of clause (i), correcting any



                                        7
<PAGE>

such misstatement or omission, and in the case of either clause (i) or (ii),
using its reasonable best efforts to cause such amendment to be declared
effective and such Registration Statement to become usable as soon as
practicable thereafter.

         2.       REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.

         In connection with any Registration Statement and subject to the
provisions of Section 1, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
effect such registration to permit the sale of the Registrable Securities being
sold in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof,
and pursuant thereto the Company shall as expeditiously as possible:

         (a) prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement
relating to the registration on any appropriate form under the Securities Act,
which form shall be available for the sale of the Registrable Securities being
sold in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof
and shall include all financial statements required by the Commission to be
filed therewith (including, if required by the Securities Act or any regulation
thereunder, financial statements of any Subsidiary of the Company which shall
have guaranteed any indebtedness of the Company), cooperate and assist in any
filings required to be made with the NASD and use its reasonable best efforts to
cause such Registration Statement to become effective and approved by such
governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the selling
holders to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities; provided,
that before filing a Registration Statement or any Prospectus, or any amendments
or supplements thereto, the Company shall (i) furnish to the holders of the
Registrable Securities and the underwriter(s), if any, copies of all such
documents proposed to be filed, which documents shall be subject to the review
of such holders and (ii) make the Company's representative available for
discussion of such documents; and provided, further, that in connection with any
registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 1(a), the Company
shall not file any Registration Statement or amendment thereto or any Prospectus
or any supplement thereto to which the holders of a majority of Registrable
Securities covered by such Registration Statement or the underwriter(s), if any,
shall reasonably object within 10 Business Days after the receipt thereof, and
provided, further, that in connection with any registration pursuant to Section
1 (b)(i), if the holders of a majority of Registrable Securities covered by a
Registration Statement in connection therewith reasonably object within 10
Business Days after the receipt of such Registration Statement or amendment
thereto or any Prospectus or any supplement thereto, the Company shall provide
written notice not more than five Business Days after the end of the 10
Business-Day period referred to above to such holders as to whether or not the
Company plans on filing such document, notwithstanding such objection (which
such notice



                                        8
<PAGE>

shall bind the Company), and if the Company notifies such holders that it plans
on filing such document, any holder of Registrable Securities to be registered
under such Registration Statement may withdraw its Registrable Securities from
such Registration Statement and the offering in connection therewith and, if
such holder makes such a withdrawal, it shall have no further obligations in
connection with such Registration Statement or offering. For purposes of the
preceding provisos, an objection made by a holder of the Registrable Securities
or an underwriter, if any, shall be deemed to be reasonable if, including
without limitation, the Registration Statement, amendment, Prospectus or
supplement, as applicable, as filed or proposed to be filed, contains, in the
reasonable judgment of the holder of Registrable Securities or underwriter, a
material misstatement or omission;

         (b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement as may be necessary to
keep the Registration Statement effective for the applicable period set forth in
Section 1, or such shorter period which will terminate when all Registrable
Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold;

         (c) if requested by the holders of a majority of the Registrable
Securities being sold in an Underwritten Offering permitted by Section 7 or the
underwriter(s) thereof, promptly incorporate in a Prospectus, Prospectus
supplement or post-effective amendment such information as such underwriter(s)
and the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold agree
should be included therein relating to the plan of distribution of the
Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect
to the number of Registrable Securities being sold to such underwriter(s), the
purchase price being paid therefor and with respect to any other terms of the
offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; and make any
required filings of such Prospectus, Prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment as soon as practicable after the Company is notified of the matters to
be incorporated in such Prospectus, Prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment;

         (d) advise the underwriter(s), if any, and holders of the Registrable
Securities promptly and, if requested by such Persons, confirm such advice in
writing:

                         (i)        when the Prospectus or any Prospectus
supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and, with respect to the
Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, when the same
has become effective;




                                        9
<PAGE>

                        (ii)        of any request by the Commission for 
amendments to the Registration Statement or amendments or supplements to the
Prospectus or for additional information relating thereto;

                       (iii)        if at any time the representations and
warranties of the Company contemplated by clause (l)(i) below cease to be true
and correct;

                        (iv)        if the Registration Statement, the 
Prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by
reference therein contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light
of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading; and

                         (v)        of the issuance by the Commission of any 
stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement, or any order issued by any state securities commission or other
regulatory authority suspending the qualification or exemption from
qualification of such Registrable Securities under state securities or "blue
sky" laws. If at any time the Company shall receive any such stop order
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or any such order
from a state securities commission or other regulatory authority, the Company
shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the withdrawal or lifting of
such order at the earliest possible time.

         (e) furnish to each holder of the Registrable Securities and each of
the underwriter(s), if any, without charge, at least one complete conformed copy
of the Registration Statement, as first filed with the Commission, and of each
amendment thereto, including all documents incorporated by reference therein and
all exhibits (including exhibits incorporated therein by reference);

         (f) deliver to each holder of the Registrable Securities and each of
the underwriter(s), if any, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus
(including each preliminary prospectus) and any amendment or supplement thereto
as such Persons may reasonably request; the Company consents to the use of the
Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the holders of the
Registrable Securities and each of the underwriter(s), if any, in connection
with the offering and the sale of the Registrable Securities covered by the
Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto;

         (g) prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, cooperate
with the holders of the Registrable Securities, the underwriter(s), if any, and
their respective counsel in connection with the registration and qualification
of the Registrable Securities under the



                                       10
<PAGE>

securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as the holders of the
Registrable Securities or underwriter(s) may reasonably request and do any and
all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in
such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration
Statement, except that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to
(i) qualify generally to do business as a foreign corporation in any
jurisdiction wherein it would not, but for the requirements of this clause (g),
be obligated to so qualify or to consent to any general service of process in
any such jurisdiction or (ii) subject itself to taxation in respect of doing
business in any jurisdiction in which it would not otherwise be so subject;

         (h) cooperate with the holders of the Registrable Securities and the
underwriter(s), if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of
certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold without bearing any
restrictive legends; and enable such Registrable Securities to be in such
denominations and registered in such names as such holders or the
underwriter(s), if any, may request;

         (i) use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities
covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such
other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the
seller or sellers thereof or the underwriter(s), if any, to consummate the
disposition of such Registrable Securities;

         (j) if any fact or event contemplated by clause (d)(iv) above shall
exist or have occurred, prepare a supplement or post-effective amendment to the
Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated
therein by reference or file any other required document so that, as thereafter

If so directed by the Company, each such holder shall deliver to the Company (at
the Company's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such
holder's possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities

         3.       REGISTRATION EXPENSES.

         (b) In connection with any Registration Statement, the Company shall

required by applicable law.

         4.       INDEMNIFICATION.

the Registrable Securities and each Person, if any, who controls such holder
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities
and expenses (including, without limiting the foregoing but subject to Section
4(c), the reasonable legal and other expenses incurred in connection with any
action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted) arising out of or based upon
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
any Registration Statement or the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the
Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any
preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading, except to the extent that such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are the result of an untrue
statement or omission contained in information relating to such holder,
furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such holder expressly for
use therein. In connection with any Underwritten Offering permitted by Section
8, the Company shall also indemnify underwriters, if any, selling brokers,
dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in
the distribution, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such
Persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) to the
same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the
holders, if requested in connection with any Registration Statement.



                                       15
<PAGE>
         (b) As a condition to the inclusion of its Registrable Securities in
any Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement, each holder thereof shall
furnish to the Company in writing, promptly after receipt of a request therefor,
such information as the Company may reasonably request for use in connection
with any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary prospectus and each
such holder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, severally and not jointly,
the Company and its directors, its officers who sign such Registration
Statement, and any Person controlling the Company within the meaning of Section
15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as
the indemnity from the Company to each holder and Persons controlling such
holder, but only with reference to information relating specifically to such
holder furnished in writing by or on behalf of such holder expressly for use in
such Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any preliminary prospectus
included therein, and of which none of the Company, its directors or officers
has actual knowledge independent of such holder; provided, however, that such
holder of Registrable Securities shall not be liable in any such case to the
extent that the holder has furnished in writing to the Company, reasonably in
advance of the filing of any such Registration Statement, Prospectus or
preliminary prospectus with the Commission, information expressly for use in
such Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary prospectus which
corrected or made not misleading information previously furnished to the
Company, and the Company failed to include such information therein. In case any
action shall be brought against the Company, any of its directors, any such
officer, or any such controlling Person based on the Registration Statement, the
Prospectus or any preliminary prospectus and in respect of which indemnity may
be sought against one or more of the holders, such holders shall have the rights
and duties given to the Company by Section 4(c) (except that if the Company as
provided in Section 4(c) shall have assumed the defense thereof such holders
shall not be required to do so, but may employ separate counsel therein and
participate in the defense thereof but all the fees and expenses of such counsel
shall be at such holder's expense and not at the expense of the Company) and the
Company and its directors, any such officers, and any such controlling Person
shall have the rights and duties given to the holders by Section 4(c). In no
event shall the liability of any selling holder hereunder be greater than the
net proceeds (i.e., proceeds net of underwriting discounts, fees, commissions
and any other expenses payable by such selling holder) received by such holder
upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification
obligation.

         (c) In case any action or proceeding (including any governmental or
regulatory investigation or proceeding) shall be brought against any current or
former holder of the Registrable Securities or any Person controlling such
holder, with respect to which indemnity may be sought against the Company
pursuant to Section 4(a), such holder or such Person controlling such holder
shall promptly notify the Company in writing and the Company shall



                                       16
<PAGE>
assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such holder and payment of all fees and expenses relating
thereto. Such holder and such Persons controlling such holder shall have the
right to employ separate counsel in any such action or proceeding and
participate in the defense thereof, but all the fees and expenses of such
counsel shall be at such holder's expense and not at the expense of the Company
unless (i) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in
writing by the Company, which authorization shall not be unreasonably withheld,
(ii) the Company has not assumed the defense and employed counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such holder within 15 days after written notice of any such
action or proceeding, or (iii) the named parties to any such action or
proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such holder or any
Person controlling such holder and the Company and such holder or any Person
controlling such holder shall have been advised by such counsel that there may
be one or more legal defenses available to such holder or Person controlling
such holder that are different from or additional to those available to the
Company and, in the reasonable opinion of such counsel, could not be asserted by
the Company's counsel without creating a conflict of interest (in which case the
Company shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action or
proceeding on behalf of such holder or controlling Person, it being understood,
however, that the Company shall not, in connection with any one such action or
separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction
arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the
reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in
addition to all local counsel which is necessary, in the good faith opinion of
both counsel for the indemnifying party and counsel for the indemnified party in
order to adequately represent the indemnified parties) for all such holders and
controlling Persons, which firm shall be designated in writing by the holders of
a majority of the Registrable Securities currently or formerly held by such
holders and that all such reasonable fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as
they are incurred upon written request and presentation of invoices). The
Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action effected
without the written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld), but if settled with the written consent of the Company
or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Company agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless such holder and any Persons controlling such holder
from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.
The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the holder, effect
any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any
holder or any Person controlling such holder is a party and indemnity has been
sought hereunder by such holder or any Person controlling such holder unless
such settlement includes an unconditional release of such holder or such
controlling Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of
such proceeding.




                                       17

         (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 4 is
unavailable to an indemnified party under paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) hereof in
respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to
therein, 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, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (i) in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by
the Company on the one hand and the holders of the Registrable Securities on the
other hand from the original sale by the Company of the Registrable Securities,
or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by
applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the
relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of
the Company on the one hand and such holders on the other hand in connection
with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and such holders on the other
hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a
material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or
by such holders on the other hand and the parties' relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses shall be deemed to include,
subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating
or defending any such action or claim.

         (e) The Company and the holders of the Registrable Securities agree
that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section
4 were determined by a pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation
that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in
subsection (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a
result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to in
subsection (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set
forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified
party in connection with investigating any claim or defending any such action,
suit or proceeding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no
holder of the Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute an amount
greater than the net proceeds received by such holder with respect to the sale
of Registrable Securities giving rise to any indemnification or contribution
obligation under this Section 4. 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.

beneficial owner of Registrable Securities in connection with any sale thereof

written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the requirements of
said Rule 144(c) and the reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting
requirements), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the
Company, and (iii) such other reports and documents of the Company as such
holder may reasonably request to avail itself of any similar rule or regulation
of the Commission allowing it to sell any such securities without registration.

         7. PARTICIPATION IN UNDERWRITTEN OFFERINGS. No holder of the
Registrable Securities may participate in any Underwritten Offering hereunder
unless such holder (a) agrees to sell such holder's Registrable Securities on
the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons
entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes
all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and
other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting
arrangements; provided, that no holder of Registrable Securities included in any
Underwritten Offering shall be required to make any representations or
warranties to the Company or the underwriter(s) other than representations and
warranties regarding such holder and such holder's intended method of
distribution; provided, however, in no event shall Prudential Fund or any of its
