         (b)      Additional Duties.

                  (i)      In addition to the duties set forth in Section
         1(a)(i), the Administrator shall perform such calculations and shall
         prepare or cause to be prepared by other appropriate persons, and shall
         execute on behalf of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee, all such
         documents, reports, filings, instruments, certificates and opinions
         that the Issuer or the Owner Trustee are required to prepare, file or
         deliver pursuant to the Related Agreements or Section 5.05 of the Trust
         Agreement, and at the request of the Owner Trustee shall take all
         appropriate action that the Issuer or the Owner Trustee are required to
         take pursuant to the Related Agreements. In furtherance thereof, the
         Owner Trustee shall, on behalf of itself and of the Issuer, execute and
         deliver to the Administrator and to each successor Administrator
         appointed pursuant to the terms hereof, one or more powers of attorney
         substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, appointing the
         Administrator the attorney-in-fact of the Owner Trustee and the Issuer
         for the purpose of executing on behalf of the Owner Trustee and the
         Issuer all such documents, reports, filings, instruments, certificates
         and opinions. Subject to Section 5, and in accordance with the
         directions of the Owner Trustee, the Administrator shall administer,
         perform or supervise the performance of such other activities in
         connection with the Collateral (including the Related Agreements) as
         are not covered by any of the foregoing provisions and as are expressly
         requested by the Owner Trustee and are reasonably within the capability
         of the Administrator.

                  (ii)     Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the
         Related Agreements to the contrary, the Administrator shall be
         responsible for promptly notifying the Owner Trustee in the event that
         any withholding tax is imposed on the Trust's payments (or allocations
         of income) to an Owner as contemplated in Section 5.02(c) of the Trust
         Agreement. Any such notice shall specify the amount of any withholding
         tax required to be withheld by the Owner Trustee pursuant to such
         provision.

                  (iii)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the
         Related Agreements to the contrary, the Administrator shall be
         responsible for performance of the duties of the Owner Trustee set
         forth in Section 5.05 of the Trust Agreement with respect to, among
         other things, accounting and reports to Owners; provided, however, that
         the Owner Trustee shall retain responsibility for the distribution of
         any Schedule K-1s necessary to enable each Owner to prepare its federal
         and state income tax returns.

                  (iv)     The Administrator shall satisfy its obligations with
         respect to clauses (ii) and (iii) above by retaining, at the expense of
         the Trust payable by the Administrator, a firm of independent public
         accountants (the "Accountants") acceptable to the Owner Trustee, which
         shall perform the obligations of the Administrator thereunder. In
         connection with paragraph (ii) above, the Accountants will provide
         prior to December 31, 2003, a letter in form and substance satisfactory
         to the Owner Trustee if any tax withholding is then required and the
         procedures to be followed with respect thereto to comply with the
         requirements of the Code. The Accountants shall be required to update
         the letter in each instance that any additional tax withholding is
         subsequently required or any previously required tax withholding shall
         no longer be required.

                  (v)      The Administrator shall perform the duties of the
         Administrator specified in Section 10.02 of the Trust Agreement
         required to be performed in connection with the resignation or removal
         of the Owner Trustee and any other duties expressly required to be
         performed by the Administrator under the Trust Agreement.

                  (vi)     In carrying out the foregoing duties or any of its
         other obligations under this Agreement, the Administrator may enter
         into transactions or otherwise deal with any of its Affiliates;
         provided, however, that the terms of any such transactions or dealings
         shall be in accordance with any directions received from the Issuer and
         shall be, in the Administrator's opinion, no less favorable to the
         Issuer than would be available from unaffiliated parties.

         (c)      Non-Ministerial Matters.

                  (i)      With respect to matters that in the reasonable
         judgment of the Administrator are non-ministerial, the Administrator
         shall not take any action unless within a reasonable time before the
         taking of such action, the Administrator shall have notified the Owner
         Trustee of the proposed action and the Owner Trustee shall not have
         withheld consent or provided an alternative direction. For the purpose
         of the preceding sentence, "non-ministerial matters" shall include,
         without limitation:

                  Indenture;

                           (B)      the initiation of any claim or lawsuit by
                  the Issuer and the compromise of any action, claim or lawsuit
                  brought by or against the Issuer (other than in connection
                  with the collection of the Contracts);

                           (C)      the amendment, change or modification of the
                  Related Agreements;

                           (D)      the appointment of successor Note
                  Registrars, successor Paying Agents and successor Indenture
                  Trustees pursuant to the Indenture or the appointment of
                  successor Administrators or a successor Master Servicer, or
                  the consent to the assignment by any of the Note Registrar,
                  the Paying Agent or the Indenture Trustee of its obligations
                  under the Indenture; and

                           (E)      the removal of the Indenture Trustee.

                  (ii)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
         Agreement, the Administrator shall not be obligated to, and shall not,
         (A) make any payments to the Noteholders under the Related Agreements,
         (B) sell the Trust Estate pursuant to clause (iv) of Section 5.04 of
         the Indenture, (C) take any other action that the Issuer directs the
         Administrator not to take on its behalf or (D) take any other action
         which may be construed as having the effect of varying the investment
         of the Holders.

         Section 2. Records. The Administrator shall maintain appropriate books
of account and records relating to services performed hereunder, which books of
account and records shall be

                                       7
<PAGE>

accessible for inspection by the Issuer and the Company at any time during
normal business hours.

         Section 3. Compensation. As compensation for the performance of the
Administrator's obligations under this Agreement and as reimbursement for its
expenses related thereto, the Administrator shall be entitled to an annual
payment of compensation which shall be solely an obligation of the Company.

         Section 4. Additional Information to be Furnished to the Issuer. The
Administrator shall furnish to the Issuer from time to time such additional
information regarding the Collateral as the Issuer shall reasonably request.

         Section 5. Independence of the Administrator. For all purposes of this
Agreement, the Administrator shall be an independent contractor and shall not be
subject to the supervision of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee with respect to
the manner in which it accomplishes the performance of its obligations
hereunder. Unless expressly authorized by the Issuer, the Administrator shall
have no authority to act for or represent the Issuer or the Owner Trustee in any
way and shall not otherwise be deemed an agent of the Issuer or the Owner
Trustee.

         Section 6. No Joint Venture. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall
(i) constitute the Administrator and either of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee
as members of any partnership, joint venture, association, syndicate,
unincorporated business or other separate entity, (ii) be construed to impose
any liability as such on any of them or (iii) be deemed to confer on any of them
any express, implied or apparent authority to incur any obligation or liability
on behalf of the others.

         Section 7. Other Activities of Administrator. Nothing herein shall
prevent the Administrator or its Affiliates from engaging in other businesses
or, in its sole discretion, from acting in a similar capacity as an
administrator for any other Person or entity even though such person or entity
may engage in business activities similar to those of the Issuer, the Owner
Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.

         give within ten days such assurance of cure as shall be reasonably
         satisfactory to the Issuer);

                  (ii)     a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall
         enter a decree or order for relief, and such decree or order shall not
         have been vacated within 60 days, in respect of the Administrator in

Issuer and the Indenture Trustee within seven days after the occurrence of such

         Section 11. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended from time to time
by a written amendment duly executed and delivered by the parties hereto, with
the written consent of the Owner Trustee but without the consent of the
Noteholders and the Certificateholders, for the purpose of adding any provisions
to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this
Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or
Certificateholders; provided that such amendment will not, in the Opinion of
Counsel satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, materially and adversely affect
the interest of any Noteholder or Certificateholder. This Agreement may also be
amended by the parties hereto with the written consent of the Owner Trustee and
the holders of Notes evidencing at least a majority of the Outstanding Amount of

by the Administrator unless such assignment is previously consented to in
writing by the Issuer and the Owner Trustee and subject to the satisfaction of
the Rating Agency Condition in respect thereof. An assignment with such consent
and satisfaction, if accepted by the assignee, shall bind the assignee hereunder
in the same manner as the Administrator is bound hereunder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, this Agreement may be assigned by the Administrator without the
consent of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee to a corporation or other
organization that is a successor (by merger, consolidation or purchase of
assets) to the Administrator; provided that such successor organization executes
and delivers to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee an
agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Owner Trustee
and the Indenture Trustee, in which such corporation or other organization
agrees to be bound hereunder by the terms of said assignment in the same manner
as the Administrator is bound hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this
Agreement shall bind any successors or assigns of the parties hereto.

been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be construed to
affect the meaning, construction or effect of this Agreement.

         Section 15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several
counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall
constitute but one and the same agreement.

         Section 16. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions hereof and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction.

         Section 17. Not Applicable to WFS in Other Capacities. Nothing in this
Agreement shall affect any obligation WFS may have in any other capacity.

of the Issuer.

         (c)      In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any
indirect, special, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind
whatsoever, including lost profits, even if the Indenture Trustee has been

and  will  continue  to  be  covered  by,  insurance  with companies the Company
believes  to  be  responsible  and in such amounts and covering such risks as it
believes  to  be  adequate  for the conduct of the

                                        5
<PAGE>
Business  and the value of the Company's and its Subsidiaries' properties and as
is  customary for companies engaged in similar businesses in similar industries,
all of which insurance is in full force and effect. The Company has no knowledge
that  any  such  carrier  has grounds or intends to cancel or fail to renew such
policies  on  terms  acceptable  to  the  Company.

          3.15     Intellectual  Property.  The  Company or its Subsidiaries own
                   ----------------------
or  possess  the patents, patent rights, licenses, inventions, copyrights, trade
secrets,  trademarks,  know-how  (including  trade  secrets and other unpatented
and/or  unpatentable  proprietary  or  confidential  information,  systems  or
procedures) and other rights or interests in items of intellectual property that
are  material  to  the  Business  as  operated  by  the Company and as currently
expected  to be operated by the Company and such Subsidiaries (collectively, the
"Patent  and  Proprietary  Rights");  neither  the  Company  nor  any  of  the
 --------------------------------
Subsidiaries  have  received  notice of any asserted infringement of or material
conflict  with  the  rights  of  others  with  respect  to any of the Patent and
Proprietary  Rights.  To the Company's knowledge, neither the Company nor any of
the Subsidiaries infringes upon the proprietary rights of others in any material
respect.  To  the  Company's  knowledge,  none  of  the  patent  rights owned or
licensed  by  the  Company  is  unenforceable  or  invalid.

          3.16     Financial  Statements.  The  financial  statements  of  the
                   ---------------------
Company  and  the  related  notes  thereto  included in the Disclosure Documents
present  fairly,  in  all  material  respects  and  in accordance with generally
accepted  accounting principles, the financial position of the Company as of the
dates  indicated,  and  the  results  of  its  operations and cash flows for the
periods therein specified (except that the unaudited financial statements do not
contain  all  notes required by generally accepted accounting principles and are
subject  to  normal  year-end  audit  adjustments).  Such  financial  statements
(including  the  related  notes) have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted  accounting  principles  applied  on  a consistent basis throughout the
periods  therein  specified ("GAAP"), subject in the case of unaudited financial
                              ----
statements,  to  normal  year-end audit adjustments.  Except as set forth in the
financial  statements  included in the Disclosure Documents, neither the Company
nor any of the Subsidiaries have any material liabilities of any nature (whether
accrued,  absolute,  contingent  or  otherwise)  that are required by GAAP to be
included  in  such financial statements other than liabilities arising after the
date  of  the  most  recent  balance sheet included in such financial statements
which  were  incurred  in  the  ordinary course of business consistent with past
practice.

          3.17     Sarbanes-Oxley  Act/Internal  Controls.  The  Company  is  in
                   --------------------------------------
material  compliance with the applicable provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
2002  and  the  rules  and  regulations promulgated in connection therewith (the
"Sarbanes-Oxley  Act")  that  are effective and has no reason to believe that it
will  not  be  in  material  compliance  with other applicable provisions of the
Sarbanes-Oxley  Act  upon the effectiveness of such provisions.  The Company has
reviewed  and  evaluated  the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls
and  procedures,  as  defined in Rules 240.13a-14 (c) and 15d-14 (c) promulgated
under  the  Exchange  Act.  Based on that review and evaluation, the Company has
concluded  that  the  Company's  current  disclosure controls and procedures, as
designed  and  implemented, are reasonably adequate to ensure that the Company's
Chief  Executive  Officer and Chief Financial Officer are provided with material
information  relating to the Company required to be disclosed in the reports the
Company  files  or  submits  under  the Exchange Act.  Additionally, the Company
maintains  a  system  of  internal  accounting  controls  sufficient  to provide
reasonable  assurance  that

                                        6
<PAGE>
(a)  transactions  are  executed  in  accordance  with  management's  general or
specific  authorizations,  (b)  transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation  of  financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally accepted
accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability, (c) access to assets
is  permitted  only  in  accordance  with  management's  general  or  specific
authorization,  (d)  the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the
existing  assets  at  reasonable  intervals and appropriate action is taken with
respect  to  any differences, and (e) financial reporting and the preparation of
financial  statements  for  external  purposes in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted  accounting  principles  are  reliable.

          3.18     Title.  The  Company  and  each of the Subsidiaries have good
                   -----
and  marketable  title  in fee simple to all real property and personal property
owned  by  them  which  is  material  to  the  business  of  the Company and the
Subsidiaries,  taken  as  a  whole, in each case free and clear of all liens and
encumbrances,  except  (i)  as  disclosed  in the Disclosure Documents, (ii) for
liens  that  do  not  materially  affect  the  value of such property and do not
materially  interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property
by  the  Company or its Subsidiaries  or (iii) for equipment leases or operating
leases entered into in the ordinary course of the Company's or its Subsidiaries'
businesses.  Any real property and facilities held under lease by the Company or
its Subsidiaries is held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases,
with  such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere with the use made
and  proposed  to  be made of such property and facilities by the Company or its
Subsidiaries.

          3.19     Form  S-3.  The Company meets the requirements for the use of
                   ---------
Form S-3 for the registration of the resale of the Purchased Shares and will use
its  best  efforts  to  maintain  S-3  status  with  the  Commission  during the
Registration  Period  (as defined in Section 7.2(a)).  The Company does not know
of  any  current  facts  or  circumstances  that  would  prohibit  or  delay the
preparation  and  filing of a registration statement on Form S-3 with respect to
the  Registrable  Securities  (as  defined  in  Section  7.1(d)).

          3.20     Tax Matters.  The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed all
                   -----------
federal,  state and local income and franchise and other tax returns required to
be  filed and have paid all taxes due, and no tax deficiency has been determined
adversely  to  the  Company  or  its  Subsidiaries which, individually or in the
aggregate,  has had (nor does the Company or its Subsidiaries have any knowledge
of  any  tax  deficiency  which,  if  determined adversely to the Company or its
Subsidiaries, could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to
have)  a  Material  Adverse  Effect.

          3.21     Investment  Company.  The  Company  is  not  an  "investment
                   -------------------
company"  within  the  meaning  of such term under the Investment Company Act of
1940  and  the  rules  and  regulations  of  the  Commission  thereunder.

          3.22     No  General Solicitation; No Integration.  No form of general
                   ----------------------------------------
solicitation  or  general  advertising  was  used  by  the  Company  or,  to its
knowledge,  any  other person acting on behalf of the Company, in respect of the
Purchased  Shares  or  in  connection  with  the offer and sale of the Purchased
Shares.  The  Company  has not sold, offered to sell, solicited offers to buy or
otherwise  negotiated  in respect of any "security" (as defined in the Act) that
is or could be integrated with the sale of the Purchased Shares in a manner that
would  require  the  registration  of  the  Purchased  Shares  under  the  Act.

<PAGE>
          3.23     No  Registration.  Assuming  the  accuracy  of  the
                   ----------------
representations  and  warranties  made by, and compliance with the covenants of,
the Investors in Section 4 hereof, no registration of the Purchased Shares under
the  Act  is required in connection with the sale of the Purchased Shares to the
Investors  as  contemplated  by  this  Agreement.

          3.24     Material  Contracts.  All  material  contracts of the Company
                   -------------------
and  its  Subsidiaries  that are required by applicable rules and regulations of
the  Commission  to  be  filed as exhibits to the Filings ("Material Contracts")

Subsidiaries and, to the Company's knowledge, the other parties thereto, and the
Company  or  its  Subsidiaries  have  paid  in  full  or accrued all amounts due

obligations  thereunder  in  all material respects.  Neither the Company nor its

default  by  such  other  party  thereunder.

     4.     REPRESENTATIONS,  WARRANTIES  AND  CERTAIN  AGREEMENTS OF INVESTORS.
            -------------------------------------------------------------------
Each  Investor  hereby severally and not jointly represents and warrants to, and
agrees  with,  the  Company,  that:

          4.1     Authorization.  All  action  (corporate  or  otherwise) on the
                  -------------
part  of the Investor and its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for
the  authorization,  execution  and  delivery  of,  and  the  performance of all
obligations  of  the  Investor  under,  this Agreement has been taken or will be
taken  prior  to the Closing, and this Agreement constitutes a valid and legally
binding  obligation  of  the  Investor,  enforceable  against  the  Investor  in
accordance  with  its  terms,  except  as  enforceability  may be limited by (i)
applicable  bankruptcy,  insolvency,  reorganization  or  other  laws of general
application  relating  to  or  affecting  the  enforcement  of creditors' rights
generally  and  (ii)  the  effect  of rules of law governing the availability of
equitable  remedies.

          4.2     Purchase  for  Own  Account.  The  Purchased  Shares  to  be
                  ---------------------------
purchased  by  such  Investor hereunder will be acquired for investment for such
Investor's  own  account,  not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the
public  resale  or  distribution thereof within the meaning of the Act, and such
Investor  has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or
otherwise  distributing the same in violation of the Act.  If not an individual,
such  Investor  also  represents  that such Investor has not been formed for the
specific  purpose  of  acquiring Purchased Shares or, if formed for the specific
purpose  of acquiring Purchased Shares, that each equity holder of such Investor
is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under
the  Act.

          4.3     Disclosure  of  Information.  The Investor has received and/or
                  ---------------------------
had  full  access  to a copy of the Disclosure Documents and has received or has
had  full access to all the information it considers necessary or appropriate to
make  an informed investment decision with respect to the Purchased Shares to be
purchased  by  the  Investor  under this Agreement.  Investor further has had an
opportunity  to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding

                                        8
<PAGE>
the  terms  and conditions of the offering of the Purchased Shares and to obtain
additional  information (to the extent the Company possessed such information or
could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to verify any
information  furnished  to the Investor or to which the Investor had access. The
foregoing,  however, does not in any way limit or modify the representations and
warranties  made by the Company in Section 3. In connection with its decision to
purchase  the Purchased Shares, the Investor has relied solely on the Disclosure
Documents,  the  representations,  warranties  and agreements of the Company set
forth  in  this Agreement, as well as any investigation of the Company completed
by  the  Investor  or  its advisors; and the Investor has not relied on any oral
statement  made  by  the  Company.

          4.4     Investment  Experience.  Such  Investor  understands  that the
                  ----------------------
purchase of the Purchased Shares involves substantial risk.  Such Investor:  (i)
has  experience  as  an  investor  in securities of companies in the development
stage  and  acknowledges  that  such Investor can bear the economic risk of such
Investor's  investment  in  the  Purchased  Shares  and  has  such knowledge and
experience  in  financial  or  business matters that such Investor is capable of
evaluating  the  merits and risks of this investment in the Purchased Shares and
protecting its own interests in connection with this investment, and/or (ii) has
a  preexisting personal or business relationship with the Company or one or more
of  its  officers  or  directors.

          4.5     Accredited  Investor  Status.  Such Investor is an "accredited
                  ----------------------------
investor"  within  the  meaning  of  Regulation  D  promulgated  under  the Act.

          4.6     Restricted  Securities.  Such  Investor  understands  that the
                  ----------------------
Purchased  Shares  are  characterized  as  "restricted securities" under the Act
inasmuch  as  they  are  being  acquired  from  the Company in a transaction not
involving a public offering and that under the Act and the Rules and Regulations
such securities may be resold without registration under the Act only in certain
limited  circumstances.  In  this connection, such Investor represents that such
Investor  is familiar with Rule 144 of the Commission and understands the resale
limitations  imposed  thereby  and  by  the  Act  and understands that the Shelf
Registration Statement (as defined in Section 7.2(a)) and any other registration
statement  contemplated  by  this  Agreement  to  effect the registration of the
Purchased  Shares  for  purposes of resale thereunder may never become effective
under  the  Act.

          4.7     Further  Limitations  on  Disposition.  Without  in  any  way
                  -------------------------------------
limiting  the  representations set forth above, such Investor further agrees not
to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Purchased Shares unless and
until:

               (a)     there  is  then  in effect a registration statement under
the  Act  covering  such  proposed  disposition  and such disposition is made in
accordance  with  such registration statement and the provisions of Section 7 of
this  Agreement;  or

               (b)     (i)  such Investor shall have notified the Company of the
proposed  disposition  and  shall have furnished the Company with a statement of
the  circumstances  surrounding the proposed disposition, and (ii) such Investor
shall  have  furnished  the  Company,  at  the  expense  of such Investor or its
transferee,  with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company,
that such disposition will not require registration of such securities under the
Act.

                                        9
<PAGE>
Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of  paragraphs  (a)  and  (b)  above,  no such
registration  statement  or  opinion  of counsel shall be required:  (i) for any
routine  transfer  of  any  Purchased Shares in compliance with Rule 144 or Rule
144A  (except  that an opinion of counsel may be required for other than routine
Rule  144  transactions),  or  (ii)  for  any transfer of Purchased Shares by an
Investor  that  is  a  partnership,  limited  liability  company  ("LLC")  or  a
                                                                    ---
corporation  to  (A)  a  partner  of  such  partnership,  member  of such LLC or
stockholder  of  such  corporation  on  a basis proportionate to their ownership
interests in such partnership, LLC or corporation, or (B) the estate of any such
partner,  member  or  stockholder,  or  (iii)  for the transfer by gift, will or
intestate  succession by any Investor to his or her spouse or lineal descendants
or  ancestors  or  any trust for any of the foregoing; provided, that in each of
the  foregoing cases the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms
of  this  Agreement  to  the  same  extent as if the transferee were an original
Investor  hereunder.

          4.8     Legends.  It  is  understood  that the certificates evidencing
                  -------
the  Purchased  Shares  will  bear  the  legends  set  forth  below:

               (a)     THE  SECURITIES  REPRESENTED  HEREBY  HAVE  NOT  BEEN
REGISTERED  UNDER  THE  SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR UNDER
                                                                 ---

REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM.  INVESTORS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THEY MAY BE
REQUIRED TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD
OF  TIME.  THE  ISSUER  OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN
FORM  AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY

     The  legends  set  forth in (a) and (b) above shall, upon the request of an
Investor,  be  promptly  removed  by the Company from any certificate evidencing

Investor, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that the legended security can
be freely transferred in a public sale without a registration statement being in
effect  under  the  Act  and  in  compliance  with  exemption requirements under
applicable  state securities laws and that such transfer will not jeopardize the
exemption  or  exemptions from registration pursuant to which the Company issued
the  Purchased Shares; provided, however, that no such opinion shall be required
in  connection  with  routine  sales  of  Purchased Shares pursuant to the Shelf
Registration  Statement  (as  defined  below)  (provided that customary forms of
brokers'  and  sellers'  representation  letters are provided in

Purchased  Shares  can be sold by an Investor pursuant to the provisions of Rule
144.  In  connection  with  any  such  opinion,  the Investor shall provide such
certifications as may be reasonably be deemed necessary for the delivery of such
opinion.

Registration  Statement  the Investor will not make any Disposition of Purchased
Shares  in  violation  of  the  Act.

                                                                -------------

     7.     REGISTRATION  RIGHTS.
            --------------------

          7.1     Definitions.  For  purposes  of  this  Agreement:
                  -----------

               (a)     Form  S-3.  The term "Form S-3" means such form under the
                       ---------             --------
Act  as is in effect on the date hereof or any successor registration form under
the  Act  subsequently  adopted  by  the  Commission  that  permits inclusion or
incorporation  of  substantial information by reference to other documents filed

               (b)     Holder.  The  term  "Holders"  shall  mean  holders  of

Registrable Securities that have registration rights pursuant to this Agreement.

               (c)     Registration.  The  terms  "register,"  "registered," and
                       ------------                --------     ----------
"registration"  refer  to  a  registration  effected  by  preparing and filing a
 ------------
registration  statement  in  compliance  with  the  Act,  and the declaration or
ordering  of  effectiveness  of  such  registration  statement.

               (d)     Registrable  Securities.  The  term  "Registrable
                       -----------------------               -----------
Securities"  means:  (1)  all of the Purchased Shares, (2) any additional shares
issued  pursuant  to  Section  7.2(a)  and (3) any shares of Common Stock of the
Company  issued or issuable, from time to time, upon any reclassification, share
combination,  share  subdivision,  stock  split,  share  dividend,  or  similar
transaction or event, or otherwise as a distribution on, in exchange for or with
respect  to  any of the foregoing; provided, however, that the term "Registrable
Securities"  shall  exclude  in  all  events  (and  such  securities  shall  not
constitute  "Registrable  Securities")  (i)  any  Registrable Securities sold or
transferred  by  a  person  in  a  transaction  in which the registration rights
granted  under this Agreement are not assigned in accordance with the provisions
of  this  Agreement or (ii) any Registrable Securities sold in a public offering
pursuant  to a registration statement filed with the Commission or sold pursuant
to  Rule  144  promulgated  under  the  Act  ("Rule  144").
                                               ---------

               (e)     Prospectus.  The  term  "Prospectus"  shall  mean  the
                       ----------               ----------
prospectus  included  in  any  Shelf  Registration Statement (including, without
limitation,  a  prospectus  that discloses information previously omitted from a
prospectus filed as part of an effective registration statement in reliance upon
Rule  430A  promulgated  under  the  Act),  as  amended  or  supplemented by any
prospectus  supplement (including, without limitation, any prospectus supplement
with  respect  to  the  terms  of the offering of any portion of the Registrable
Securities

                                       13
<PAGE>
covered  by  such  Shelf  Registration  Statement), and all other amendments and
supplements  to  the  Prospectus,  including  post-effective amendments, and all
material  incorporated by reference or deemed to be incorporated by reference in
such  Prospectus.

               (f)     Shelf  Registration  Statement.  See  Section  7.2(a).
                       ------------------------------

          7.2   Form  S-3  Shelf  Registration.
                ------------------------------

               (a)     Registration.  The  Company  shall  prepare and file with
                       ------------
the  Commission  as soon as practicable but in any event within thirty (30) days
following  the  Closing  and use its commercially reasonable efforts (i) to have
declared  effective  as  soon as practicable thereafter (but in any event within
ninety  (90)  days after the Closing Date), a registration statement on Form S-3
(or,  if  the  Company  is  not  then  eligible  to  use  Form S-3, then another
appropriate  form)  providing  for  the  resale  by  the  Holders  of all of the
Registrable Securities (the "Shelf Registration Statement"), and (ii) to provide
                             ----------------------------
a  transfer  agent  and  registrar for all securities registered pursuant to the
Shelf  Registration  Statement.  The  Shelf  Registration  Statement may include
securities  other  than  those  held by Holders.  The Company shall use its best
efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective (subject
to  Section  7.2(b)),  pursuant  to  the  Act  and  the  Rules  and  Regulations
promulgated  thereunder,  until  the  earliest  to  occur  of  (i)  the  second
anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) as to a particular Holder, such time as
all  Registrable  Securities  held by such Holder have been sold (A) pursuant to
the  Shelf  Registration  Statement,  (B)  to  or  through a broker or dealer or
underwriter  in a public distribution or a public securities transaction, and/or
(C)  the  date  on  which such Holder can sell all of its Registrable Securities
without  registration  pursuant  to  Rule 144(k) (such period, the "Registration
                                                                    ------------
Period").  In  the event that the Shelf Registration Statement shall cease to be
------
effective during the Registration Period, the Company shall promptly prepare and
file  a new registration statement covering all Registrable Securities and shall
use  its  best efforts to have such registration statement declared effective as
soon  as  practicable.  Any  such  registration  statement shall be considered a
"Shelf  Registration  Statement"  hereunder.

               (b)     Liquidated  Damages.  In  the  event  that  the  Shelf
                       -------------------
Registration Statement is not filed within 30 days after the Closing or declared
effective  by  the date that is ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, the
Company  shall  pay  to  each  Investor  liquidated  damages  (collectively, the
"Liquidated  Damages"),  in  cash, in an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the
 -------------------
total purchase price of the Purchased Shares purchased by such Investor pursuant
to  this  Agreement  (a "Liquidated Damages Payment") for each thirty day period
                         --------------------------
(or portion thereof) thereafter, until the Shelf Registration Statement is filed
or  becomes effective, as the case may be; provided, however that in the case of
any such period of less than thirty days the Liquidated Damages Payment shall be
calculated  on  a pro rata basis based on the number of days actually elapsed in
such period.  Each Liquidated Damages Payment payable in respect of a thirty day
period  (or  portion thereof) shall be paid at the end of such thirty day period
(or  portion  thereof).

               (c)     Lapse and Suspension.   Subject to the provisions of this
                       --------------------
Section  7.2(c), should the Registration Statement's effectiveness lapse for any
reason  while  the Company has any obligation to maintain such effectiveness and
the Company does not cure such lapse within 10 business days (the "Cure Period")
                                                                   -----------
by  a  post-effective  amendment or a report filed

                                       14
<PAGE>
pursuant  to  the Exchange Act, the Company shall pay each investor damages at a
rate  of  1%  per  month,  payable  monthly,  of the purchase price paid by each
Investor,  for  the  period  of  the  lapse  beyond  such  cure period, in cash.
Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  if  in the good faith judgment of the Board of
Directors  of the Company, following the advice of its counsel, it is determined
that: (i) it would be detrimental to the Company to effect a registration or for
sales  to  be  made  from  such  Registration  Statement, or (ii) there exists a
material  development  that  the  Company  would be obligated to disclose in the
Registration Statement, which disclosure would be premature or inadvisable, then
the  Company  will be permitted to suspend the use of the Registration Statement
for  a  period of up to 45 consecutive days in any 180-day period; provided that
such  suspension periods shall not exceed 90 days (including any Cure Period) in
the  aggregate during the Registration Period (following which 90 day period the
foregoing  1%  damages shall begin to accrue). In the event of any suspension of
the  effectiveness of the Registration Statement or similar event, the Investors
will  immediately  discontinue  disposition  of  the  securities  underlying the
Registration  Statement.  In  such  event,  the  Company  will  use commercially
reasonable  efforts  to cause the use of the Registration Statement so suspended
to  be  resumed  as  soon  as  possible.

               (d)     Liquidated  Damages  not  a Penalty.  The Company and the
                       -----------------------------------
Investor  agree that, in the event that under the circumstances described above,
the  Shelf  Registration  Statement is not declared effective within ninety (90)
days  of  the  Closing,  as  contemplated  in Section 7.2(b) or effectiveness is
thereafter  suspended  as  contemplated  in  Section  7.2(c),  it  would  be
impracticable  or  extremely difficult to fix or determine the Investor's actual
damages.  Therefore,  the Company and the Investor each agree that the amount of
the  Liquidated  Damages  has  been  agreed  upon  as  liquidated  damages after
negotiation  as  to  the parties' reasonable estimate of the Investor's damages.
The  Company  and  the  Investor  agree that the amount of Liquidated Damages is
reasonable  in  light  of  the  circumstances  existing at the execution of this
Agreement.  The  Company  and  the Investor each acknowledge that the payment of
such  Liquidated  Damages  is  not  intended as a forfeiture or penalty.  If the
Company  fails  to  immediately  pay  to the Investor any amounts due under this
Section  7.2,  then  in addition to any amounts paid or payable pursuant to this
Section, the Company shall also pay all reasonable costs and expenses (including
reasonable legal fees and expenses) in connection with any action, including the
filing  of  any  lawsuit  or  other  legal  action,  taken to enforce or collect
payment, together with interest on such payment at the maximum rate permitted by
applicable  law,  from  the  date  such  payment  was  required  to  be  paid.

               (e)     Expenses.  The registration fees and expenses incurred by
                       --------
the  Company  in  connection  with  the Shelf Registration Statement, including,
without  limitation,  all  registration, qualification and filing fees, printing
expenses,  escrow  fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue
sky  fees  and  expenses,  and  the expense of any special audits incident to or
required  by  any such registration, shall be borne by the Company.  Each Holder
shall be responsible for any fees and expenses of its counsel or other advisers.

          7.3     Obligations  of the Company.  The Company shall furnish to the
                  ---------------------------
Holder  such  number  of  copies  of  a  Prospectus,  including  a  preliminary
Prospectus,  in  conformity  with  the  requirements  of the Act, and such other
documents  (including  supplements  or  prospectus amendments) as the Holder may
reasonably  request  in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition
of  the  Registrable  Securities  owned  by  it  that  are  included  in  such
registration.  In

                                       15
<PAGE>
addition,  whenever  required  to  effect  the  registration  of any Registrable
Securities  under  this  Agreement,  the  Company  shall,  as  expeditiously  as
reasonably  possible:

               (a)     Use  commercially  reasonable efforts to (i) register and
qualify  the  securities covered by such registration statement under such other
securities  or  Blue Sky laws of such states as shall be reasonably requested by
the  Holder,  provided  that  the  Company  shall  not be required in connection
therewith  or  as  a  condition  thereto  to qualify to do business or to file a
general  consent  to  service  of process in any such states or jurisdictions in
which  it  is not now so qualified or has not so consented and (ii) to keep such
registration  or  qualification  in effect for so long as the Shelf Registration
Statement  remains  in  effect,  except  that the Company shall not for any such
purpose be required to qualify generally to do business as a foreign corporation
in  any  jurisdiction  where  it  is  not  so qualified, or to subject itself to
taxation in any such jurisdiction, or to execute a general consent to service of
process  in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance, unless the
Company  is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be
required  by  the  Act  or  applicable  rules  or  regulations  thereunder.

               (b)     Notify the Holder promptly (and in any event by 4:00 p.m.
Mountain Time, by email, fax or other type of communication) (i) on the same day
that  the  Shelf  Registration  Statement  becomes effective (unless the Company
receives  notice  of the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement after
4:00  p.m.  Mountain  Time, in which case the Company shall notify the Holder by
4:00  p.m.  on  the  next  business day), (ii) within one business day after any
request  by  the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority
during the period of effectiveness of a registration statement for amendments or
supplements  to  such  registration  statement  or  related  prospectus  or  for
additional  information, (iii) on the same day of the issuance by the Commission
or  any  other  federal  or  state  governmental  authority of any stop order or
similar  action  suspending the effectiveness of a registration statement or the
initiation  of  any  proceedings  for  that purpose (unless the Company receives
notice  of  the  issuance  of  any  stop order or similar action after 4:00 p.m.
Mountain Time, in which case the Company shall notify the Holder by 4:00 p.m. on
the  next  business  day), and (iv) within one business day after the receipt by
the  Company  from  the  Commission  or  any other federal or state governmental
authority  of  any  notification  with  respect  to  the  suspension  of  the
qualification  or  exemption  from  qualification  of  any  of  the  Registrable
Securities  for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any
proceeding  for  such  purpose.

               (c)     Use  commercially  reasonable  efforts  to  obtain  the
withdrawal  of  any order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration
Statement  as  soon  as  practicable.

               (d)     Promptly  file  such amendments (including post-effective
amendments)  and  supplements  to  the  Shelf  Registration  Statement  and  the
Prospectus,  file  such  documents  as  may  be  required  to be incorporated by
reference  in  any  of  such  documents,  and  take  all other actions as may be
necessary  to  ensure  to  the  holders of Registrable Securities the ability to
effect  the  public  resale  of their Registrable Securities (including, without
limitation,  taking  any  actions  necessary  to  ensure  the  availability of a
Prospectus  meeting  the  requirements of Section 10(a) of the Act) continuously
throughout  the Registration Period; and provide or make available by posting on
its  website  to  each  holder of Registrable Securities copies of any documents
prepared  pursuant  to  the  foregoing  promptly  after  such  preparation.

                                       16
<PAGE>
          7.4     Furnish Information.  It shall be a condition precedent to the
                  -------------------
obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to Section 7.2 or Section
7.3  that the Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding it,
the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of
such  securities  (and, when necessary, furnish updated information) as shall be
required  to  timely effect (and maintain the effectiveness of) the registration
of  its  Registrable  Securities.

          7.5     Indemnification.  For  the  purposes  of this Section 7.5, the
                  ---------------
term "registration statement" shall include any preliminary or final Prospectus,
exhibit,  supplement, amendment or other document included in, filed as part of,
deemed  to  be a part of, incorporated by reference in, or otherwise relating to
the  Shelf  Registration  Statement  referred  to  in  this  Section  7.

               (a)     By  the Company.  To the fullest extent permitted by law,
                       ---------------
the  Company will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Investor, each Holder,
the  officers  and  directors,  trustees,  advisors,  each  person,  if any, who
controls  any  Holder and any underwriter for each (as defined in the Act) (such
persons  and entities collectively referred to as "Holder Indemnified Parties"),
                                                   --------------------------
against  any  and  all  losses, claims, expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable legal and other fees and expenses), damages or liabilities (including
in  settlement of any claim) to which they may become subject under the Act, the
Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common
law  or  otherwise  (a  "Loss"),  insofar  as such Losses (or actions in respect
                         ----
thereof)  arise  out of any claim, action or proceeding brought by a third party
arising out of or based upon any of the following (collectively, a "Violation"):
                                                                    ---------

               (i)     any  untrue  statement  or  alleged untrue statement of a
          material  fact contained in a registration statement filed pursuant to
          this  Section  7;

               (ii)     the  omission  or  alleged  omission  to  state  in  a
          registration  statement  filed  pursuant  to this Section 7 a material
          fact  required  to  be  stated  therein,  or  necessary  to  make  the
          statements  therein  not  misleading;

               (iii)     any  violation  or  alleged violation by the Company of
          the  Act, the Exchange Act, any federal or state securities law or any
          rule  or regulation promulgated under the Act, the Exchange Act or any
          federal  or  state securities law, in each case in connection with the
          offering  covered  by  such  registration  statement;  or

               (iv)     any  failure  by  the Company to fulfill any undertaking
          included  in  a  registration  statement;

and, if the Company elects not to assume the defense as permitted by Section 7.5
(c),  the  Company will reimburse each Holder Indemnified Party for any legal or
other  expenses  reasonably  incurred  by  them, as incurred, in connection with
investigating  or defending or settling, compromising or paying an award granted
in  any  proceeding  relating to any such Violation; provided, however, that the
indemnity agreement contained in this subsection shall not apply to amounts paid
in settlement of any such Loss, if such settlement is effected without the prior
written consent of the Company, nor shall the Company be liable in any such case

                                       17
<PAGE>
for  any  such  Loss  to  the  extent  that  it arises out of or is based upon a
Violation  caused  by  reliance  upon and in conformity with written information
furnished  expressly for use in connection with such registration statement by a
Holder  Indemnified  Party;  and  provided further, that the Company will not be
liable  for  the  reasonable legal fees and expenses of more than one counsel to
all  Holder  Indemnified  Parties  unless in the reasonable opinion of counsel a
conflict  exists  among  such  Holder  Indemnified  Parties.

               (b)     By  the  Holder.  To the fullest extent permitted by law,
                       ---------------
each Holder (severally and not jointly with any other Holder) will indemnify and
hold  harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who have
signed  the  Shelf Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls
the  Company  within  the  meaning  of  the  Act  (such  persons  and  entities
collectively  referred  to as "Company Indemnified Parties") against any and all
                               ---------------------------
Losses  to  which  such Company Indemnified Parties may become subject under the
Act,  the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such Losses (or
actions  in  respect  thereto)  arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in
each  case  to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation is caused
by  reliance  upon  and  in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company  by  the Holder expressly for the registration statement; and the Holder
will  reimburse  any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Company
Indemnified  Parties  in  connection  with  investigating  or defending any such
Violation;  provided,  however,  that  the indemnity agreement contained in this
subsection  shall  not  apply  to amounts paid in settlement of any such Loss if
such  settlement  is  effected  without the prior written consent of the Holder;
provided  further,  that the Holder shall not be liable for the reasonable legal
fees  and  expenses of more than one counsel to the Company Indemnified Parties;
and  provided  further, that no Holder shall be required to pay amounts pursuant
to  this  subsection (b) in excess of the net amount of proceeds received by the
Holder  from  the sale of the Registrable Securities, less the total amount paid
by  the  Holder  for  such  Registrable  Securities.

               (c)     Notice.  Promptly  after  receipt by an indemnified party
                       ------
under  this  Section  of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
governmental  action),  such  indemnified  party  will,  if  a  claim  for
indemnification  in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party
under  this  Section,  deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the
commencement  of  such an action and the indemnifying party shall have the right
to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly
with  any  other  indemnifying  party  similarly  noticed, to assume the defense
thereof  with  counsel  selected  by  the  indemnifying  party  and  reasonably
acceptable  to  a  majority  in  interest  of the indemnified parties; provided,
however,  that  an  indemnified  party  shall  have  the right to retain its own
counsel,  with  the  reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying
party,  if  the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may
be  a  conflict  between  the  positions  of  the  indemnifying  party  and  the
indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may
be  legal  defenses  available  to  it  or  other  indemnified  parties that are
different  from  or  additional  to  those  available to the indemnifying party.

               (d)     Defect  Eliminated  in  Final  Prospectus.  The foregoing
                       -----------------------------------------
indemnity  agreements of the Company and the Holder are subject to the condition
that,  insofar  as they relate to any Violation made in a preliminary prospectus
but eliminated or remedied in the amended Prospectus on file with the Commission
at  the  time the registration statement in question becomes effective or in the
amended  Prospectus  filed  with  the  Commission pursuant to

                                       18
<PAGE>
Rule  424(b)  of  the  Commission  (the  "Final  Prospectus"),  such  indemnity
                                          -----------------
agreements  shall  not inure to the benefit of any person if a copy of the Final
Prospectus was furnished in a timely manner to the indemnified party and was not
furnished  to  the  person  asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage at or
prior  to  the  time  such  action  is  required  by  the  Act.

               (e)     Contribution.  If  the  indemnification  provided  for in
                       ------------
this  Section  7.5  is  unavailable  to  or  insufficient  to  hold  harmless an
indemnified  party under subsection (a) or (b) above with respect of any losses,
claims,  damages,  liabilities or expenses (or actions or proceedings in respect
thereof)  referred  to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to
the  amount  paid  or  payable by such indemnified party as a result of any such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof)
in  such  proportion  as  is  appropriate  to  reflect the relative fault of the
Company  on  the  one  hand  and  the Holder on the other in connection with the
statements  or omissions or inaccuracies in the representations or warranties of
this  Agreement  or  other  matters  which  resulted in any such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative fault shall be determined
by reference to, among other things, in the case of an untrue statement, whether
the  untrue  statement relates to information supplied by the Company on the one
hand  or  a  Holder  on  the  other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge,
access  to  information  and  opportunity  to  correct  or  prevent  such untrue
statement.  The  Company  and  the Investors agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (e) were determined by pro
rata  allocation  (even  if  all  Holders  were  treated  as one entity for such
purpose)  or  by any other method of allocation which does not take into account
the  equitable  considerations  referred  to  above in this subsection (e).  The
amount  paid  or  payable  by  an  indemnified  party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above
in  this  subsection  (e) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses
reasonably  incurred  by such indemnified party in connection with investigating
or  defending  any such action or claim.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this
subsection  (e),  no Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess
of  the  net  amount  of proceeds (i.e., proceeds net of underwriting discounts,
fees  and  commissions  payable  by such Holder) received by the Holder from the
sale  of the Registrable Securities less the total amount paid by the Holder for
such  Registrable  Securities.  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.  The  Holders'  obligations  to  contribute  pursuant to this
Section  7.5(e)  are  several  and  not  joint.

               (f)     Survival.  The  obligations of the Company and the Holder
                       --------
under  this  Section shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable
Securities  in  a  registration  statement,  and  otherwise.

          7.6     Rule  144  Reporting.  With  a  view  to  making available the
                  --------------------
benefits  of  certain  rules and regulations of the Commission, which may at any
time  permit  the  sale  of  the  Registrable  Securities  to the public without
registration,  the  Company  agrees  to:

               (a)     Make  and  keep  adequate,  current  public  information
available,  as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Act,
at  all  times;

                                       19
<PAGE>
               (b)     File  with  the Commission in a timely manner all reports
and  other  documents  required  of  the  Company  under  the  Exchange Act; and

               (c)     So long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, to
furnish  to the Holder forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company
as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144, a copy of
the  most  recent  annual  or  quarterly  report  of the Company, and such other
reports  and  documents  of  the Company as the Holder may reasonably request in
availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing a Holder to
sell  any  such  securities  without  registration.

          7.7     Termination  of Company's Obligations.  The Company shall have
                  -------------------------------------
no  obligation  to  register,  or  maintain,  a registration statement governing
Registrable  Securities and the restrictive legend described in Section 4.8 will
be  removed  from  any certificate representing the Purchased Shares, (i) if all
Registrable  Securities  have been registered and sold pursuant to registrations
effected  pursuant  to  this  Agreement  or  to or through a broker or dealer or
underwriter  in  a public distribution or public securities transaction, or (ii)
with respect to any particular Holder at such time as all Registrable Securities
held  by  such  Holder may be sold pursuant to Rule 144(k), as it may be amended
from  time  to  time,  including  but not limited to amendments that reduce that
period  of  time that securities must be held before such securities may be sold
pursuant  to  such  rule,  as determined by counsel to the Company pursuant to a
written  opinion  to  that  effect  that is acceptable to the Company's transfer
agent  and  the  affected  Holders.

     8.     ASSIGNMENT.  Notwithstanding  anything  herein  to the contrary, the
            ----------
registration  rights of the Holder under Section 7 hereof shall be automatically
assigned  by  such  Investor  to  any  transferee  of all or any portion of such
Investor's  Registrable  Securities  who  is  a Permitted Transferee (as defined
below);  provided,  however,  that  (a)  no  party  may  be  assigned any of the
foregoing  rights  until  the  Company  is given written notice by the assigning
party  at  the  time  of  such  assignment  stating  the name and address of the
assignee and identifying the securities of the Company as to which the rights in
question  are  being  assigned;  (b)  that  any such assignee shall receive such
assigned  rights  subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and
(c)  no  such  assignment  or  assignments shall increase the obligations of the
Company  hereunder.  For  purposes  of  this Agreement, a "Permitted Transferee"
                                                           --------------------
shall  mean  any  person who (x) is (i) an "accredited investor" as that term is
defined  in  Rule  501(a)  of Regulation D under the Act; (ii) a partner of such
Holder,  an  affiliate  of  such  Holder  or  a  partner  of an affiliate or any
corporation,  partnership,  limited  liability company or other entity or person
controlling,  controlled by, or under common control with, such Holder; or (iii)
any  other direct transferee from such Holder of at least 25% of the Registrable
Securities  held  by  such  Holder  and  (y)  is a transferee of the Registrable
Securities  as  permitted  under  the  securities  laws  of  the  United States.

     9.     MISCELLANEOUS.

          9.1     Survival  of  Warranties.  The representations, warranties and
                  ------------------------

to  the  failure of a condition set forth in Section 6.1.1 and (ii) is incapable
of  being  cured or has not been cured by such Investor within ten (10) calendar
days  following  receipt  of written notice of such breach or failure to perform

SEC  describing the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
attaching  this Agreement and the press release referred to below as exhibits to

confidential  and  none  of its provisions or terms shall be disclosed to anyone
who is not an officer or director of an Investor's organization or an Investor's
