            with respect to registration statements on Forms S-4 or S-8 or
            another form not available for registering the Registrable
            Securities for sale to the public), each such time it will give
            written notice thereof to Holders of its intention so to do (such
            notice to be given at least fifteen (15) days prior to the filing
            thereof). Upon the written request of any such Holder (which request
            shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be
            disposed of by such Holder and the intended method of disposition
            thereof, received by the Company within ten (10) days after giving
            of any such, notice by the Company, to register any of such Holder's
            Registrable Securities, the Company will use its reasonable efforts,
            subject to Section 2(b) below, to cause the Registrable Securities
            as to which registration shall have been so requested to be included
            in the securities to be covered by the Registration Statement
            proposed to be filed by the Company, all to the extent requisite to
            permit the sale or other disposition by the Holder (in accordance
            with its written request) of such Registrable Securities so
            registered ("Piggyback Registration Rights"); provided, that (i) if
            such registration involves an underwritten offering, all Holders
            requesting to be included in the Company's registration must sell
            their Registrable Securities to the underwriters selected by the
            Company on the same terms and

                                       A-2

<PAGE>

            conditions as apply to the Company; and (ii) if, at any time after
            giving written notice of its intention to register any securities
            pursuant to this Section 2(a) and prior to the effective date of the
            Registration Statement filed in connection with such registration,
            the Company shall determine for any reason not to register such
            securities, the Company shall give written notice to all Holders
            and, thereupon, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any
            Registrable Securities in connection with such registration. If a
            registration pursuant to this Section 2 (a) involves an underwritten
            public offering, any Holder requesting to be included in such
            registration may elect, in writing prior to the effective date of
            the registration statement filed in connection with such
            registration, not to register such securities in connection with
            such registration. The foregoing provisions notwithstanding, (i) the
            Company may withdraw any registration statement referred to in this
            Section 2(a) without thereby incurring any liability to the Holders,
            and (ii) the inclusion of shares of Registrable Securities under
            such Piggyback Registration Rights is subject to the cut-back
            provisions of Section 2(b) below.

            (b) Priority in Piggyback Registration. If a registration pursuant
            to Section 2(a) hereof involves an underwritten offering and the
            managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that, in its
            opinion, the number of equity securities (including all Registrable
            Securities) which the Company, the Holders and any other persons
            intended to be included in such registration exceeds the largest
            number of securities which can be sold without having an adverse
            effect on such offering, including the price at which such
            securities can be sold, the Company will include in such
            registration (i) first, all the securities the Company proposes to
            sell for its own account, and (ii) second, to the extent that the
            number of securities which the Company proposes to sell for its own
            account pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof is less than the number of
            securities which the Company has been advised can be sold in such
            offering without having the adverse effect referred to above, the
            number of securities requested to be included in such registration
            by security holders as a result of their exercise of "demand"
            registration rights by such other holders. Any such reductions shall
            be pro rata in relation to the number of shares of Common Stock to
            be registered by each person participating in the offering.

            (c) Holdback Agreements. If any registration of Registrable
            Securities shall be in connection with an underwritten public
            offering, each Holder agrees not to effect any public sale or
            distribution, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the
            Securities Act, of any Registrable Securities, and not to effect any
            such public sale or distribution of any other equity security of the
            Company or of any security convertible into or exchangeable or
            exercisable for any equity security of the Company (in each case,
            other than as part of such underwritten public offering) during the
            thirty (30) days prior to, and during the ninety (90) day period
            beginning on, the effective date of such Registration Statement
            (except as part of such registration).

                                       A-3

<PAGE>

            (d) Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may delay
            the registration of Registrable Securities following a written
            request pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof for the time periods
            described in Section 2(e) hereof upon the occurrence of any of the
            following:

                  (i) The Company shall have previously entered into an
                  agreement or letter of intent contemplating an underwritten
                  public offering, on a firm commitment basis of Common Stock or
                  securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock
                  and the managing underwriter of such proposed public offering
                  advises the Company in writing that in its opinion such
                  proposed underwritten offering would be materially and
                  adversely affected by a concurrent registered offering of
                  Registrable Securities (such opinion to state the reasons
                  therefor);

                  (ii) During the two (2) month period immediately preceding
                  such request, the Company shall have entered into an agreement
                  or letter of intent, which has not expired or otherwise
                  terminated, contemplating a material business acquisition by
                  the Company or its subsidiaries whether by way of merger,
                  consolidation, acquisition of assets, acquisition of
                  securities or otherwise;

                  (iii) The Company is in possession of material nonpublic
                  information that the Company would be required to disclose in
                  the Registration Statement and that is not, but for the
                  registration, otherwise required to be disclosed at the time
                  of such registration, the disclosure of which, in its good
                  faith judgment, would have a material adverse effect on the
                  business, operations, prospects or competitive position of the
                  Company;

                  (iv) The Company shall receive the written opinion of the
                  managing underwriter of the underwritten public offering
                  pursuant to which Common Stock has been registered within the
                  three (3) month period prior to the receipt of a registration
                  request that the registration of additional Common Stock will
                  materially and adversely affect the market for the Common
                  Stock (such opinion to state the reasons therefor); or

                  (v) At the time of receipt of a registration request, the
                  Company is engaged, or its board of directors has adopted by
                  resolution a plan to engage, in any program for the purchase
                  of shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or
                  exchangeable for shares of Common Stock and, in the opinion of
                  counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the requesting Holders,
                  the distribution of the Common Stock to be registered would
                  cause such purchase of shares to be in violation of Regulation
                  M promulgated under the Exchange Act.

                                       A-4

            (e) Period of Delay. If an event described in clauses (i) through
            (iv) of Section 2(d) shall occur, the Company may, by written notice
            to the Holders, delay the filing of a Registration Statement with
            respect to the Registrable Securities to be covered thereby for a
            period of time not exceeding ninety (90) days.

                  If an event described in clause (v) of Section 2(d) shall

            can be sold without violation of Regulation M of the Exchange Act.

      3.    Registration Procedures.

      In connection with the registration obligations of the Company pursuant to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company shall:

            (a) prior to filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus or any
            amendments or supplements thereto, including documents incorporated
            by reference after the initial filing of the Registration Statement,
            the Company will furnish to the Holders covered by such Registration
            Statement (the "Selling Holders"), Holders' Counsel and the
            underwriters, if any, draft copies of all such documents proposed to
            be filed at least three (3) Business Days prior thereto, which
            documents will be subject to the review of such Holders' Counsel and
            the underwriters, if any, and the Company will not, unless required
            by law, file any Registration Statement or amendment thereto or any
            Prospectus or any supplement thereto (including such documents
            incorporated by reference) to which Selling Holders of at least a
            majority of the Registrable Securities (the "Objecting Party") shall
            object, pursuant to notice given to the Company prior to the filing
            of such amendment or supplement (the "Objection Notice"). The
            Objection Notice shall set forth the objections and the specific
            areas in the draft documents where such objections arise. The
            Company shall have five (5) Business Days after receipt of the
            Objection Notice to correct such deficiencies to the satisfaction of
            the Objecting Party, and will notify each Selling Holder of any stop
            order issued or threatened by the Commission in connection therewith
            and take all reasonable actions required to prevent the entry of
            such stop order or to remove it if entered;

            (b) as promptly as practicable prepare and file with the Commission
            such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration
            Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement
            effective for the period required pursuant to Section 2; cause the
            Prospectus to be supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement,
            and, as so supplemented, to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the
            Securities Act; and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act
            applicable to it with respect to the disposition of all Registrable
            Securities covered by such Registration Statement during the
            applicable period in accordance with

                                       A-5

<PAGE>

            the Intended methods of disposition by the Selling Holders set forth
            in such Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus;

            (c) as promptly as practicable furnish to any Selling Holder and the
            underwriters, if any, without charge, such number or conformed
            copies of such Registration Statement and any post-effective
            amendment thereto and such number of copies of the Prospectus
            (including each preliminary Prospectus) and any amendments or
            supplements thereto, and any documents incorporated by reference
            therein, as such Selling Holder or underwriter may reasonably
            request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable
            Securities being sold by such Selling Holder (it being understood
            that the Company consents to the use of the Prospectus and any
            amendment or supplement thereto by each Selling Holder and the
            underwriters, if any, in connection with the offering and sale of
            the Registrable Securities covered by the Prospectus or any
            amendment or supplement thereto); provided, that before filing a
            Registration Statement or Prospectus relating to the Registrable
            Securities or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company
            will furnish to Holders' Counsel copies of all documents proposed to
            be filed at least three (3) Business Days prior to the filing
            thereof, which documents will be subject to the review of such
            counsel;

            (d) on or prior to the date on which the Registration Statement is
            declared effective, register or qualify such Registrable Securities
            under such other securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions
            as any Selling Holder, Holders' Counsel or underwriter reasonably
            requests and do any and all other acts and things which may be
            necessary or advisable to enable such Selling Holder to consummate
            the disposition in such jurisdictions of such Registrable Securities
            owned by such Selling Holder; keep each such registration or
            qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the period
            which the Registration Statement is required to be kept effective;
            and do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary or
            advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the
            Registrable Securities covered by the applicable Registration
            Statement; provided that the Company shall not be required to (i)
            qualify to do business as a foreign corporation or as a
            broker-dealer in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified
            or (ii) take any action which would subject it to general service of
            process or to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so
            subject;

            (e) cause the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
            Statement to be registered with or approved by such other
            governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary by virtue
            of the business and operations of the Company to enable the Selling
            Holders to consummate the disposition of such Registrable
            Securities;

            (f) as promptly as practicable notify each Selling Holder, Holders'
            Counsel and any underwriter and (if requested by any such Person)
            confirm such notice in writing, (i) when a Prospectus or any
            Prospectus supplement or post-effective

                                       A-6

<PAGE>

            amendment has been filed and, with respect to a Registration
            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 for amendments or
            supplements to a Registration Statement or related Prospectus or for
            additional information to be included in any Registration Statement
            or Prospectus or otherwise, (iii) of the issuance by the Commission
            of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration
            Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for
            that purpose, (iv) of the issuance by any state securities
            commission or other regulatory authority of any order suspending the
            qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the
            Registrable Securities under state securities or "blue sky" laws or
            the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose and (v) of the
            happening of any event which makes any statement made in a
            Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document
            incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein
            untrue or which requires the making of any changes in such
            Registration Statement, Prospectus or documents so that they 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 not misleading; and, as promptly as
            practicable thereafter, prepare and file with the Commission and
            furnish a supplement or amendment to such Prospectus so that, as
            thereafter deliverable to the purchasers of such Registrable
            Securities, such Prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of
            a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make
            the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which
            they were made, not misleading;

            (g) make generally available to the Holders an earnings statement
            satisfying the provisions of Section II (a) of the Securities Act no
            later than thirty (30) days after the end of the 12-month period
            beginning with the first day of the Company's first fiscal quarter
            commencing after the effective date of a Registration Statement;

            (h) use its reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any order
            suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, and, if
            one is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the
            effectiveness of a Registration Statement at the earliest possible
            moment;

            (i) as promptly as practicable after filing with the Commission of
            any document which is incorporated by reference into a Registration
            Statement, deliver a copy of such document to Holders' Counsel;

            (j) cooperate with the Selling Holders and the managing underwriter
            or underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and
            delivery of certificates (which shall not bear any restrictive
            legends and shall be in a form eligible for deposit with the
            Depository Trust Company) representing securities sold under such
            Registration Statement, and enable such securities to be in such

            underwriter or underwriters, if any, or such Selling Holders may
            request and make available prior to the effectiveness of such
            Registration Statement a supply of such certificates;

            (k) if applicable, enter into such customary agreements (including
            an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other
            actions as the Selling Holders of at least a majority of the
            aggregate number of the Registrable Securities being sold or the
            underwriters retained by the Selling Holders participating in an
            underwritten public offering, if any, may request in order to
            expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable
            Securities;

            (1) if requested by Selling Holders of at least a majority of the
            aggregate amount of the Registrable Securities being sold to cause
            the Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement
            to be (i) listed or admitted for trading or otherwise included on
            each securities exchange, if any, (including, without limitation,

            National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated Quotation
            if the Registrable Securities so qualify;

            (m) cooperate with each Selling Holder and each underwriter
            participating in the disposition of such Registrable Securities and
            their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to
            be made with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.

            its officers, directors and each Person who controls such Holder
            (within the meaning of the Securities Act), and any agent or
            investment adviser thereof, against all losses, claims, damages,
            liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
            costs of investigation) arising out of or based upon any untrue or
            alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any
            Registration Statement, any amendment or supplement thereto, any
            Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus 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,
            except insofar as the same arise out of or are based upon any such
            untrue statement or omission based upon information with respect to
            such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of
            such Holder expressly for use therein; provided

                                       A-9

<PAGE>

            that, in the event that the Prospectus shall have been amended or
            supplemented and copies thereof as so amended or supplemented, shall
            have been furnished to a Holder prior to the confirmation of any
            sales of Registrable Securities, such indemnity with respect to the
            Prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of such Holder if the
            Person asserting such loss, claim, damage or liability and who
            purchased the Registrable Securities from such holder did not, at or
            prior to the confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities
            to such Person, receive a copy of the Prospectus as so amended or
            supplemented and the untrue statement or omission of a material fact
            contained in the Prospectus was corrected in the Prospectus as so
            amended or supplemented.

            (b) Indemnification by Holders of Registrable Securities. In
            connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder is
            participating, each such Holder will furnish to the Company in
            writing such information with respect to the name and address of
            such Holder and such other information as may be reasonably required
            for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or
            Prospectus and agrees to indemnity, to the full extent permitted by
            law, the Company, its directors and officers and each Person who
            controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act)
            against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses
            resulting from any untrue statement of a material fact or any
            omission of a material fact required to be stated in the
            Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment thereof or
            supplement thereto or necessary to make the statements therein not
            misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
            or alleged untrue statement is contained in or such omission or
            alleged omission relates to any information with respect to such
            Holder so furnished in writing by such Holder specifically for
            inclusion in any Prospectus or Registration Statement; provided,
            however, that such Holder shall not be liable in any such case to
            the extent that prior to the filing of any such Registration
            Statement or Prospectus or amendment thereof or supplement thereto,
            such Holder has furnished in writing to the Company information
            expressly for use in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or
            any amendment thereof or supplement thereto which corrected or made
            not misleading information previously furnished to the Company. In
            no event shall the liability of any Selling Holder hereunder be
            greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by
            such Selling Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities
            giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

            (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to
            indemnification hereunder agrees to give prompt written notice to
            the indemnifying party after the receipt by such Person of any
            written notice of the commencement of any action, suit, proceeding
            or investigation or threat thereof made in writing for which such
            Person will claim indemnification or contribution pursuant to the
            provisions hereof and, unless in the judgment of counsel of such
            indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such
            indemnified party and the indemnifying party with respect to such
            claim, permit the indemnifying

                                      A-10

            party to assume the defense of such claim. Whether or not such
            defense is assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying
            party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made
            without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably
            withheld). No indemnifying party will consent to entry of any
            judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an
            unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff
            to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect
            of such claim or litigation. If the indemnifying party is not
            entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim, it
            will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one
            counsel (plus such local counsel, if any, as may be reasonably
            required in other jurisdictions) with respect to such claim, unless
            in the judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may
            exist between such indemnified party and any other of such
            indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the
            indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses
            of such additional counsel or counsels. For the purposes of this
            Section 5(c), the term "conflict of interest" shall mean that there
            are one or more legal defenses available to the indemnified party
            that are different from or additional to those available to the
            indemnifying party or such other indemnified parties, as applicable,
            which different or additional defenses make joint representation
            inappropriate.

            (d) Contribution. If the indemnification from the indemnifying party
            provided for in this Section 5 is unavailable to an indemnified
            party hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages,
            liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then the indemnifying
            party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall
            contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party
            as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses
            in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault
            of the indemnifying party and indemnified parties in connection with
            the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages,
            liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable
            considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and
            indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other
            things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or
            alleged untrue statement of a material fact, has been made by, or
            relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or
            indemnified parties, and the parties intent, knowledge, access to
            information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The
            amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims,
            damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed
            to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5(c),
            any reasonable legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred
            by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.

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

                                      A-11

<PAGE>

            required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which
            the total price at which the Registrable Securities underwritten by
            it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds
            the amount of any damages which such underwriter has otherwise been
            required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement
            or omission or alleged omission, and no Selling Holder shall be
            required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which
            the total price at which the Registrable Securities of such Selling
            Holder were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages
            which such Selling Holder has otherwise been required to pay by
            reason of such untrue statement or omission. No Person guilty of
            fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section I l(f)
            of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any
            person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

            (e) If indemnification is available under this Section 5, the
            indemnifying parties shall indemnity each indemnified party to the
            full extent provided in Sections 5(a) and (b) without regard to the
            relative fault of said indemnifying party or indemnified party or
            any other equitable consideration provided for in this Section 5(d).

      6.    Participation in Underwritten Registrations.

      No Holder may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder
unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell its 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.

      7.    Transfer or as an Imminent Right,.

      The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities granted
pursuant to the provisions hereof may be transferred or assigned by any Holder
to a transferee or assignee; provided; however, that the transferee or assignee
of such rights assumes the obligations of such transferor or assignor, as the
case may be, hereunder.

      8.    Amendment

      Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions hereof may not be
amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from
the provisions hereof may not be given unless the Company has obtained the
written consent of Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate number of the
Registrable Securities then outstanding.
