          2.1.    If the Company shall receive, at any time starting six (6)
                  months after the Closing Date, a written request from the
                  Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities (the
                  "Initiating Holders") to file a registration statement under
                  the Securities Act covering the registration of all or part of
                  the Registrable Securities, then the Company shall:

                  2.1.1. within twenty (20) days of the receipt thereof, give
                         written notice of such request to all other Holders;
                         and

                  2.1.2. use its best efforts to effect as soon as practicable,
                         the registration under the Securities Act of all
                         Registrable Securities which are specified in such
                         written request together with the Registrable
                         Securities of non-Initating Holders joining in such
                         request pursuant to written requests received by the
                         Company from such non-Initiating Holders within 20 days
                         after the receipt of the Company's written notice.

          2.2.    If the Company shall furnish to the Holders requesting
                  registration pursuant to this Section 2 a certificate signed
                  by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or the Chairman
                  of the Company's Board of Directors stating that in the good
                  faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company it
                  would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its
                  shareholders for such registration to be effected at such
                  time, the Company shall have the right to defer such filing
                  for a period of not more than one hundred and twenty (120)
                  days after receipt of

<PAGE>

                  the request of the Initiating Holders, provided that such
                  right to delay a request shall be exercised by the Company not
                  more than once in any 12 month period.

          2.3.    In the case of any registration effected pursuant to this
                  Section 2 the Company shall have the right to designate the
                  managing underwriter(s) in any underwritten offering.

          2.4.    The Company and all Holders participating in such underwritten
                  registration shall enter into an underwriting agreement in
                  customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected
                  for such underwriting.

          2.5.    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2 (except
                  for Section 2.2), if the underwriter of a registration being
                  made pursuant to Section 2 advises the Initiating Holders in
                  writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the
                  number of Registrable Securities to be included in such
                  underwritten registration, then the Initiating Holders shall
                  so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities which would
                  otherwise be underwritten, and then there shall be excluded
                  from such registration and underwriting, to the extent
                  necessary to satisfy such limitation, Registrable Securities
                  held by the Holders pro rata to the number of shares held by
                  each Holder that has requested to be included in such
                  registration.

          2.6.    Limitation on Number of Demand Registrations.

                  2.6.1. The Company shall not be required to effect more than
                         one (1) demand registration pursuant to Section 2. If
                         the Company shall be eligible to use a registration
                         statement on Form F-3 in connection with the demand
                         registration under this Section 2, such registration
                         may be effected by the Company on Form F-3.

                  2.6.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) if the Initiating
                         Holders have requested, and the Company has effected,
                         the single demand registration allowed pursuant to this
                         Section 2 within 12 months of the date of this
                         Agreement and (2) from and after 12 months from the
                         date of this Agreement, the Company is not eligible to
                         use a registration statement on Form F-3 in connection
                         with a shelf registration for the resale of the
                         Company's shares, then the Holders will be entitled to
                         one (1) additional demand registration pursuant to this
                         Section 2; provided, however that the Company shall not
                         be required to effect a registration if the market
                         price of the Registrable Securities to be registered
                         thereunder is less than $750,000.

          2.7.    The Company may not cause any other registration of securities
                  for sale for its own account (other than a registration
                  effected solely to implement an employee benefit plan) to be
                  initiated after delivery of a demand for a registration
                  requested pursuant to this Section 2 and to become effective
                  less than one hundred and twenty (120) days after the
                  effective date of a registration made pursuant to such demand
                  under this Section 2.

          2.8.    The Initiating Holders may withdraw their request for such
                  demand registration at any time and they shall not be deemed
                  to have exhausted any rights to make a

<PAGE>

                  demand registration in the future, provided that they
                  reimburse the Company for all of its costs and expenses
                  incurred in connection with such withdrawn demand registration
                  (collectively, "Company Expenses"), if such registration has
                  in fact been cancelled. Notwithstanding the above, if the
                  Initiating Holders withdraw their request based upon material
                  adverse information relating to the Company or its condition,
                  business, prospects or general securities market conditions
                  which is different from that generally known to the
                  Shareholders making the demand at the time of their request,
                  the Initiating Holders shall not have to reimburse the Company
                  for the Company Expenses.

     3.   Shelf Registration

          3.1.    From such time as the Company becomes eligible to file
                  registration statements on Form F-3, at the request of the
                  Initiating Holders to file a shelf registration statement
                  pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act with the SEC,
                  the Company shall:

                  3.1.1. within twenty (20) days after receipt of any such
                         request, give written notice of the proposed
                         registration to all other Holders; and

                  3.1.2. use its best efforts to effect as soon as practicable,
                         the registration under the Securities Act of all
                         Registrable Securities which are specified in such
                         written request together with the Registrable
                         Securities of non-Initating Holders joining in such
                         request pursuant to written requests received by the
                         Company from such non-Initiating Holders within 20 days
                         after the receipt of the Company's written notice.

          3.2.    The Company undertakes that it will, once having qualified for
                  registration on Form F-3, use its best efforts to comply with
                  all necessary filings and other requirements so as to maintain
                  such qualification.

          3.3.    After a registration requested pursuant to Section 3, the
                  Company may not cause any other registration of securities for
                  sale for its own account (other than a registration effected
                  solely to implement an employee benefit plan) to be initiated
                  and to become effective less than 120 days after the effective
                  date of any registration requested pursuant to Section 3.1.

          3.4.    Notwithstanding the above, the Company shall not be required
                  to effect a registration pursuant to Section 3 if:

                  3.4.1. the market price of the Registrable Securities to be
                         registered thereunder is less than $750,000;

                  3.4.2. if the Company has, within the six (6) month period
                         preceding the date of such request, already effected
                         one registration under Section 3, or two registrations
                         under Section 3 in the previous twelve-month period; or

                  3.4.3. if Form F-3 is not available for such offering by the
                         Holders;

                  3.4.4. if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a
                         certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer or
                         Chairman of the Board of the Company

<PAGE>

                         stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of
                         Directors of the Company, it would be seriously
                         detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for
                         such Form F-3 registration to be effected at such time,
                         in which event the Company shall have the right to
                         defer the filing of the Form F-3 registration statement
                         for a period of not more than one hundred and twenty
                         (120) days after receipt of the request of the Holders
                         under this Section 3; provided, however, that the
                         Company shall not utilize this right more than once in
                         any twelve (12) month period.

     4.   Piggyback Registrations

          4.1.    Whenever the Company proposes to register for its own account
                  or for any other person other than in a registration pursuant
                  to Section 2 or 3 any of its securities under either the
                  Securities Act (other than a registration in connection with a
                  merger or acquisition on Form F-4 or S-4 or one relating
                  solely to employee benefit plans under Form S-8 or any similar
                  form) or the Israeli Securities Laws, it will promptly, and at
                  least thirty (30) days prior to the initial filing of a
                  registration statement with the SEC or Israeli equivalent,
                  give written notice to the Holders of its intention to effect
                  such a registration and will include in such registration all
                  the securities held by the Holders (subject to the provisions
                  of Section 4.3 hereto) with respect to which the Company
                  receives written requests for inclusion therein within twenty
                  (20) days after receipt of such notice by the Holders (a
                  "Piggyback Registration").

          4.2.    In the case of any registration initiated by the Company, the
                  Company shall have the right to designate the managing
                  underwriter in any underwritten offering and any Holders
                  participating in such underwritten registration shall enter
                  into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the
                  underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting.

          4.3.    If (i) a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten offering of
                  the Company's securities and the underwriter advises the
                  Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation
                  of the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten, or
                  (ii) the Investors piggyback on a demand registration by the
                  Holders under this Agreement and the underwriter advises the
                  Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation
                  of the number of Registrable Securities to be registered in
                  such offering, the Company will include its securities in such
                  registration in the following order:

                  (a)    if the Piggyback Registration is initiated by the
                         Company:

                         (i)  first, all shares proposed to be included by the
                              Company; and

                         (ii) second, all Registrable Securities proposed to be
                              included by the Holders and all Registrable
                              Securities proposed to be included by the
                              Investors (the "Investor Registrable Securities");
                              pro rata, based on the aggregate number of the
                              Company's securities held by the Holders and the
                              Investors (irrespective of whether or not all
                              Holders and Investors propose to include their
                              securities in such

<PAGE>

                              offering). For avoidance of doubt, for purposes of
                              determining pro rata amounts, if the Holders
                              collectively hold 30% of the aggregate number of
                              Registrable Securities and Investor Registrable
                              Securities (collectively, the "Aggregate
                              Registrable Securities"), then at least 30% of the
                              Aggregate Registrable Securities included by the
                              Company pursuant to this section shall be
                              Registrable Securities, irrespective of whether
                              all Holders have requested to participate in such
                              offering (with participating Holders being
                              entitled to include additional Registrable
                              Securities). Similarly, if the Investors
                              collectively hold 70% of the Aggregate Registrable
                              Securities, then at least 70% of the Aggregate
                              Registrable Securities included by the Company
                              pursuant to this Section shall be Investor
                              Registrable Securities, irrespective of whether
                              all Investors have requested to participate in
                              such offering (with participating Investors being
                              entitled to include additional Investor
                              Registrable Securities).

                  (b)    if the Piggyback Registration is not initiated by the
                         Company:

                         (i)  first, all Registrable Securities proposed to be
                              included by the Holders and all Investor
                              Registrable Securities proposed to be included by
                              the Investors; provided, that if all such
                              securities cannot be included, the Company shall
                              include Registrable Securities and Investor
                              Registrable Securities pro rata, as determined in
                              subsection (a)(ii) above; and

                         (ii) second, all other securities of the Company or any
                              other shareholders proposed to be included in
                              such offering.

     5.   Obligations of the Company. Whenever required hereunder to effect the
          registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as
          expeditiously as reasonably possible:

          5.1.    Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with
                  respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best
                  efforts to cause such registration statement to become
                  effective in accordance with the time periods indicated above,
                  and, upon the request of the Initiating Holders, registered
                  thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for a
                  period of up to nine months or until the distribution
                  contemplated in the Registration Statement has been completed;

          5.2.    Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements
                  to such registration statement and the prospectus used in
                  connection with such registration statement as may be
                  necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act
                  with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by
                  such registration statement;

          5.3.    Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus,
                  including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the
                  requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents
                  as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the
                  disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them;

          5.4.    Register and qualify the securities covered by such
                  registration statement under such other securities laws of
                  such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the
                  Holders, as the case may be;

<PAGE>

          5.5.    In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into
                  and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement,
                  in usual and customary form, with terms generally satisfactory
                  to the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder or
                  other shareholder participating in such underwriting shall
                  also enter into and perform its obligations under such an
                  agreement;

          5.6.    Notify each Holder covered by such registration statement at
                  any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be
                  delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any
                  event as a result of which the prospectus included in such
                  registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue
                  statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact
                  required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
                  statements therein not misleading in the light of the
                  circumstances then existing;

          5.7.    Cause all Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereto to
                  be listed on each securities exchange on which similar
                  securities issued by the Company are then listed;

          5.8.    Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable
                  Securities registered pursuant hereto and a CUSIP number for
                  all such Registrable Securities not later than the effective
                  date of such registration; and

          5.9.    Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting registration
                  of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2 hereof, on the
                  date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the
                  underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold
                  through underwriters, or, if such securities are not being
                  sold through underwriters, on the date that the registration
                  statement with respect to such securities becomes effective,
                  (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the counsel representing
                  the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and
                  substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an
                  underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters,
                  if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of
                  Registrable Securities and (ii) a letter dated such date, from
                  the independent certified public accountants of the Company,
                  in form and substance as is customarily given by independent
                  certified public accountants to underwriters in an
                  underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters,
                  if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of
                  Registrable Securities.

6.       Expenses of Registration

          6.1.    The Company shall bear and pay the expenses incurred in
                  connection with any registration, filing or qualification of
                  Registrable Securities for each Holder, including (without
                  limitation) all registration, filing, and qualification fees,
                  printers and accounting fees and the reasonable fees and
                  disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holders,
                  excluding underwriting discounts and commissions relating to
                  the sale of Registrable.

7.       Furnishing of Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the
         obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this
         Agreement with respect to the securities of any selling Holder that
         such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information as may be
         required to be included in the registration statement under the
         Securities Act

<PAGE>

         regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the
         intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required
         to effect the registration of such securities.

8.       Indemnification and Contribution

         8.1.     The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest
                  extent permitted by law, each Holder, any underwriter for such
                  Holder, each person, if any, who controls the Holder or such
                  underwriter, and each of such Holder's partners, shareholders,
                  officers, directors, employees, legal counsel and accountants,
                  from and against any and all losses, claims, damages,
                  liabilities, and charges, joint or several ("Claims"), to
                  which any of them may be subject under the Securities Act, the
                  Exchange Act, the Israeli Securities Law, the Companies Law,
                  or any other statute (whether U.S. or Israeli) or at common
                  law, insofar as such Claims arise out of, are based upon, or
                  are in connection with (i) any untrue statement of any
                  material fact contained in any registration statement or
                  prospectus, in each case, as amended or supplemented, under
                  which such securities were sold, or (ii) 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, or (iii) any other violation by the Company of
                  the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the Israeli Securities
                  Law, the Companies Law or any state or foreign jurisdiction
                  securities laws in connection with each such registration, and
                  shall reimburse each such person entitled to indemnification
                  for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
                  person in connection with investigating or defending any such
                  Claim, as and when such expenses are incurred; provided,
                  however, that the Company shall not be liable to any such
                  person in any such case to the extent that any such claim
                  arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or
                  omission made in such registration statement or prospectus in
                  reliance upon and in conformity with written information
                  furnished to the Company by such person and/or any person
                  acting on its behalf specifically for use in such registration
                  statement or prospectus and provided further, that this
                  indemnity shall not apply to amounts paid pursuant to any
                  settlement effected without the consent of the party entitled
                  to indemnification hereunder, which consent shall not be
                  unreasonably withheld.

         8.2.     Each Holder selling shares under a registration statement (the
                  "Selling Holder") shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the
                  fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, any underwriter
                  for the Company, and each person, = if any, who controls the
                  Company or such underwriter and each of the Company's or
                  underwriter's officers, directors, employees, legal counsel
                  and accountants, from and against any and all Claims to which
                  any of them may be subject under the Securities Act, the
                  Exchange Act, the Israeli Securities Law, the Companies Law,
                  or any other statute (whether U.S. or Israeli) or at common
                  law, insofar as such Claims arise out of, are based upon, or
                  are in connection with (i) any untrue statement made by such
                  Selling Holder of any material fact contained in any
                  registration statement or prospectus, in each case, as amended
                  or supplemented, under which such securities were sold, or
                  (ii) any omission or alleged omission made by such Selling
                  Holder to state therein a material fact required to be stated

<PAGE>

                  therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
                  misleading, and shall reimburse the Company or each such
                  person entitled to indemnification for any legal or other
                  expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or such person in
                  connection with investigating or defending any such Claim, as
                  and when such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that
                  such Selling Holder shall be liable to the Company or any such
                  person in any such case only to the extent that any such claim
                  arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or
                  omission made in such registration statement or prospectus in
                  reliance upon and in conformity with written information
                  furnished to the Company by such Selling Holder and/or any
                  person acting on such Selling Holder's behalf specifically for
                  use in such registration statement or prospectus and provided
                  further, that this indemnity shall not apply to amounts paid
                  pursuant to any settlement effected without the consent of the
                  party entitled to indemnification hereunder, which consent
                  shall not be unreasonably withheld. The indemnification
                  provided by such Selling Holder shall be limited to the amount
                  of the net proceeds received by such Selling Holder from the
                  sale of the securities registered in such registration. The
                  obligation of a Holder to indemnify the Company or any other
                  person or entity pursuant to this Section 8.2 shall be several
                  but not joint.

          8.3.    Promptly after receipt by any person entitled to
                  indemnification under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2, as the case
                  may be, of notice of the commencement of any action,
                  proceeding, or investigation in respect of which indemnity may
                  be sought as provided above, such party (the "Indemnitee")
                  shall notify the party from whom indemnification is claimed
                  (the "Indemnitor"). The Indemnitor shall promptly assume the
                  defense of the Indemnitee with counsel reasonably satisfactory
                  to such Indemnitee, and the fees and expenses of such counsel
                  shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnitor. The
                  Indemnitee will cooperate with the Indemnitor in the defense
                  of any action, proceeding, or investigation for which the
                  Indemnitor assumes the defense, provided, however, that if the
                  defendants in any action include both the Indemnitee and the
                  Indemnitor and there is a conflict of interests which would
                  prevent counsel for the Indemnitor from also representing the
                  Indemnitee, the Indemnitee shall have the right to select one
                  separate counsel to participate in the defense of such action
                  on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. The Indemnitor
                  shall not be liable for the settlement by the Indemnitee of
                  any action, proceeding, or investigation effected without its
                  consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The
                  Indemnitor shall not enter into any settlement in any action,
                  suit, or proceeding to which the Indemnitee is a party, unless
                  such settlement includes a general release of the Indemnitee
                  with no payment by the Indemnitee of consideration and without
                  an admission of liability.

          8.4.    The parties agree to notify promptly each other of the
                  commencement of any litigation or proceedings against the
                  Company or any of its officers or directors in connection with
                  the sale of any Registrable Securities held by the Holders, or
                  any preliminary prospectus or registration statement relating
                  to any sale of any Registrable Securities, or of any other
                  litigation or proceedings to which this Section 8 is
                  applicable of which they became aware.

<PAGE>

          8.5.    Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the
                  provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in
                  the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the
                  underwritten public offering are in conflict with the
                  foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting
                  agreement shall prevail.

          8.6.    The obligations of the Company and the Holders under this
                  Section 8 shall survive the completion of any offering of
                  Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this
                  Agreement.

          8.7.    If for any reason the foregoing indemnity is unavailable, or
                  is insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnitee (except as
                  specifically provided therein), then the Indemnitor shall
                  contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnitee as
                  a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
                  expenses (a) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
                  the relative benefits received by the Indemnitor on the one
                  hand and the Indemnitee on the other from the registration or
                  (b) if the allocation provided by clause (a) above is not
                  permitted by applicable law, or provides a lesser sum to the
                  Indemnitee than the amount hereinafter calculated, in such
                  proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of
                  the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee as well as any other
                  relevant equitable considerations; provided that in no event
                  shall any contribution by a Holder hereunder exceed the net
                  proceeds from the offering received from such Holder. 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.

     9.   Reports Under the Exchange Act

          With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule
          144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any other rule or
          regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to sell
          securities of the Company to the public without registration or
          pursuant to a registration on Form F-3, the Company agrees to:

          9.1.    make and keep public information available, as those terms are
                  understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times;

          9.2.    take such action as is necessary to enable the Holders to
                  utilize Form F-3 for the sale of their Registrable Securities;

          9.4.    furnish to any Holder, so long as such Holder owns any
                  Registrable Securities, forthwith upon being so requested (i)

                  the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and
                  the Exchange Act, or that it qualifies as a registrant whose
                  securities may be resold pursuant to Form F-3 (at any time
                  after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual
                  or, to the extent applicable, quarterly report of the Company
                  and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company,
                  and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably
                  requested in availing any Holder of any

<PAGE>

                  rule or regulation of the SEC which permits the selling of any
                  Registrable Securities without registration or pursuant to

          9.5.    comply with all other necessary filings and other requirements

                  Registrable Securities under Rule 144 under the Securities Act

          9.6.    use its best efforts to maintain the listing of its Ordinary
                  Shares on the Nasdaq National Market ("Nasdaq"), and should

                  reinstatement of the Ordinary Shares to listing on Nasdaq,
                  including through the pursuit of the formal appeal process
                  established by Nasdaq.

     10.  Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to
          register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement may be
          assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a
          transferee or assignee of such securities, provided: (a) the Company
          is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with
          written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee
          and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are
          being assigned; and (b) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing
          to be bound by and subject to all the terms and conditions of this
          Agreement.

     11.  Additional Registration Rights. Following the first anniversary of the
          Closing Date, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to negotiate
          additional registration rights for such Holders who are not then
          entitled to sell their shares under Rule 144.

     12.  Expiration of Registration Rights. The registration rights contained
          herein shall expire 5 (five) years after the Closing Date.

     13.  Miscellaneous.

          13.1.   Each of the parties hereto shall perform such further acts and
                  execute such further documents as may reasonably be necessary
                  to carry out and give full effect to the provisions of this
                  Agreement and the intentions of the parties as reflected
                  thereby.

          13.2.   This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with, and
                  governed in all respects by, the internal laws of the State of
                  New York (without giving effect to principles of conflicts of
                  laws). Each party to this Agreement consents to the exclusive
                  jurisdiction and venue of the courts of the State of New York.

          13.3.   Except as otherwise expressly limited herein and subject to
                  the provisions of Section 10 above, the provisions hereof
                  shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the
                  successors, assigns, heirs, executors, and administrators of
                  the parties hereto.

          13.4.   This Agreement constitutes the full and entire understanding
                  and agreement between the parties with regard to the subject
                  matters hereof and thereof. Any term of this Agreement may be
                  amended and the observance of any term hereof may be waived
                  (either prospectively or retroactively and either generally or
                  in a particular instance) only with the written consent of the
                  holders of the majority of the Registrable Shares and of the
                  Company, provided, that any amendment or

<PAGE>

                  waiver that affects a Holder differently or adversely shall
                  require such Holder's written consent. For the avoidance of
                  doubt, the Company may execute any other registration rights
                  agreement and such agreement, if and when executed, shall not
                  be deemed to be an amendment of this Agreement or require the
                  consent of any Holder.

          13.5.   All article and section headings are inserted for convenience
                  only and shall not modify or affect the construction or
                  interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

          13.6.   All notices and other communications required or permitted
                  hereunder are to be given pursuant to the provisions of the
                  Merger Agreement.

          13.7.   If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of
                  competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable under applicable
                  law, then such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement
                  and the remainder of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if
                  such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in
                  accordance with its terms; provided, however, that in such
                  event this Agreement shall be interpreted so as to give
                  effect, to the greatest extent consistent with and permitted
                  by applicable law, to the meaning and intention of the
                  excluded provision as determined by such court of competent
                  jurisdiction.

          13.8.   This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts,
                  each of which shall be deemed an original and enforceable
                  against the parties actually executing such counterpart, and
                  all of which together shall constitute one and the same
                  instrument.

                   as the "Surviving Corporation"), and the separate corporate
                   existence of the Company with all its rights, privileges,

                    attached hereto (the "Cash Consideration") and (C) the right
                    to receive additional consideration ("Additional
                    Consideration"). The Additional Consideration shall be
                    delivered in accordance with Section 4.7 (the "Additional
                    Consideration Payment") and shall be either (i) an amount of
                    cash equal to $462,474, or (ii) subject to the requisite

                    Ordinary Shares (the "Additional Consideration Shares"). The
                    Initial Consideration, the Cash Consideration and the
                    Additional Consideration shall hereinafter be referred to
                    collectively as the "Merger

<PAGE>

                   Consideration."  At the Effective Time, all Shares shall no
                   longer be outstanding and shall be canceled and retired and
                   shall cease to exist, and each certificate (a "Certificate")
                   formerly representing any of such Shares  shall thereafter
                   represent only the right to the Merger Consideration.

                   4.1.1     Parent agrees that at the Effective Time, it shall
                             issue to each of the persons listed on Schedule 4.1
                             attached hereto the ("Management Stockholders") the

                             Schedule 4.1. In addition, Parent acknowledges and
                             agrees that at the Effective Time, it shall issue
                             to the "Company Optionholders" identified on
                             Schedule 4.1, options exercisable for such number
                             of Parent Ordinary Shares set forth next to each
                             Company Optionholder's name, such options to have
                             an exercise price per share equal to the closing
                             price per share of Parent Ordinary Shares on The
                             NASDAQ National Market ("NASDAQ") on the date
                             immediately preceding the Closing Date and no
                             requirement of vesting.

                   4.1.2     The Management Stockholders and Company
                             Optionholders shall be entitled to receive

                             forth in Section 4.7.

         4.2.      Non-Transferability. Additional Consideration Payments or
                   delivery of Additional Consideration Shares, as the case may
                   be, will be delivered only to Company Stockholders who were
                   stockholders of record of the Company as of the Closing Date
                   (or, in the event of the death of any Company Stockholder, to
                   any of their spouses or lineal descendants or other estate
                   planning devices created or implemented for the purposes of
                   providing the economic benefits of the Shares to such spouses
                   or lineal descendants upon the death of the Company
                   Stockholder), the persons listed as Management Stockholders
                   on Schedule 4.1 (or, in the event of the death of any
                   Management Stockholder, to any of their spouses or lineal
                   descendants or other estate planning devices created or
                   implemented for the purposes of providing the economic
                   benefits of the Shares to such spouses or lineal descendants
                   upon the death of the Management Stockholder) and persons
                   listed as Company Optionholders on Schedule 4.1 (or, in the
                   event of the death of any Company Optionholder, to any of
                   their spouses or lineal descendants or other estate planning
                   devices created or implemented for the purposes of providing
                   the economic benefits of the Shares to such spouses or lineal
                   descendants upon the death of the Company Optionholder). The
                   right to receive any such Additional Consideration Payments
                   or Additional Consideration Shares, as the case may be, shall
                   be non-transferable and any purported transfer of such right
                   shall be void and of no force and effect, except the right to
                   receive any such Additional Consideration Payments or
                   Additional Consideration Shares, as the case may be, may be
                   transferable in the event of the death of any Company
                   Stockholder, Management Stockholder or Company Optionholder
                   to any of their spouses or lineal descendants or other estate
                   planning devices created or implemented for the purposes of
                   providing the economic benefits

                   of the Shares to such spouses or lineal descendants upon the
                   death of the Company Stockholder, Management Stockholder or
                   Company Optionholder.

         4.3.      Deleted.

         4.4.      Merger Sub.  At the Effective Time, each share of Common
                   Stock, par value $1.00 per share, of Merger Sub that is
                   issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective
                   Time shall be converted into one share of common stock of the
                   Surviving Corporation.

         4.5.      Cancellation of Stock Options and Warrants and Stock Plans.
                   At the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase
                   Shares (a "Company Option") under the Stock Plans, whether
                   vested or unvested, shall be canceled without further action
                   and each outstanding warrant or similar security or right

                   shall be canceled without further action. On or prior to the
                   Effective Time, the Company shall take all corporate action
                   necessary to cancel, concurrent with the Merger, the Stock
                   Plans and any agreements between any holders of Company
                   Options or Company Warrants and the Company; provided,
                   however, the effectiveness of such actions by the Company may
                   be conditioned upon the Closing.

         4.6.      Delivery of Certificates. As of the Closing Date, the Company
                   shall cause all Certificates to be delivered to the location
                   where the Closing will occur. Each Certificate shall be
                   delivered with its stock power executed in favor of Parent.
                   Parent shall cancel the Certificates, and, on or immediately
                   after the Effective Time, Parent shall mail or cause to be
                   mailed to the previous holders of the Certificates, at the
                   addresses designated by such holders, certificates
                   representing that number of whole Parent Ordinary Shares that
                   such holders are entitled to receive pursuant to payment of
                   the Initial Consideration.

         4.7.      Delivery of Additional Consideration. Subject to satisfaction
                   or waiver of the relevant provisions of Section 10 below, the
                   Additional Consideration shall be delivered to the Company
                   Stockholders, Management Stockholders and Company
                   Optionholders pursuant to a second closing (the "Second
                   Closing") to be held no later than 90 days after the Closing
                   Date. Unless Parent is unable to obtain any required approval
                   of its shareholders for the issuance of the Additional
                   Consideration Shares, Parent shall deliver the Additional
                   Consideration Shares as the Additional Consideration,
                   provided that if Parent delivers Additional Consideration
                   Shares as the Additional Consideration, the Additional
                   Consideration Shares which would otherwise be deliverable to
                   a Company Optionholder pursuant to this Section 4.7 shall be
                   delivered in the form of options exercisable for such number
                   of Parent Ordinary Shares which have an exercise price equal
                   to the closing price per share of Parent Ordinary Shares on
                   NASDAQ on the date immediately preceding the Second Closing
                   and no requirement of vesting. Parent covenants and agrees
                   that following the Closing, it will submit to its
                   shareholders, as quickly as possible, the matter of the
                   issuance of the Additional Consideration Shares for approval
                   and will use its best efforts to obtain such approval. The
                   delivery of the Additional Consideration at the Second
                   Closing shall be made by Parent to the

<PAGE>

                   Company Stockholders, the Management Stockholders and the
                   Company Optionholders. Any cash payments made by Parent to
                   the Company Stockholders, Management Stockholders and Company
                   Optionholders at the Second Closing shall be made by wire
                   transfer to a previously designated account of such Company
                   Stockholder, Management Stockholder or Company Optionholder.
                   The Additional Consideration to be delivered to each Company
                   Stockholder, Management Stockholder and Company Optionholder
                   shall equal (subject to any reduction by reason of Section
                   5.24) the amount of cash or number of Parent Ordinary Shares
                   set beside each Person's name and below the column Second
                   Closing on Scheulde 4.1.

         4.8.      Legends. It is understood that the certificates evidencing
                   the Parent Ordinary Shares issued to the holders of Shares in
                   return for the surrender of their Certificates shall bear one
                   or all of the following legends:

                   4.8.1.    "These securities have not been registered under
                             the Securities Act of 1933. They may not be sold,
                             offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated in the
                             absence of a registration statement in effect with
                             respect to the securities under such Act or an
                             opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that
                             such registration is not required."

                   4.8.2.    "The holder of this security registered with the
                             Company is that which is noted on the face of this
                             security. Such holder has entered into an agreement
                             with the Company in which such holder has agreed
                             not to sell, offer to sell, pledge, hypothecate or
                             otherwise transfer the shares represented by this
                             security for a limited period of time."

                   4.8.3.    Any legend required by the "blue sky" or securities
                             laws of any state.

         4.9.      Dissenters' Rights. Pursuant to Section 8.6, each Company
                   Stockholder shall agree that it waives any rights or claims
                   relating to any dissenters' or similar rights in connection
                   with the Merger and that it will not have a right to exercise
                   any dissenters' or similar rights in connection with such
                   Merger.

         4.10.     Tax Treatment. The parties acknowledge and agree that they
                   intend for the Merger to be a taxable transaction for U.S.
                   federal income tax purposes. The parties note that the use of
                   a second tier subsidiary by Parent for purposes of
                   effectuating the transaction, and the payment of a portion of
                   the consideration in cash were done with the intention that
                   such actions would cause the transaction to become taxable
                   for US income tax purposes and cause the transaction not to
                   qualify as a "reorganization" within the meaning to Sec. 368
                   of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). The
                   parties also acknowledge that each "five-percent transferee
                   shareholder" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
                   section 1.367(a)-3(c)(5)(ii) does not intend to file a gain
                   recognition agreement (as described in Treasury Regulations
                   section 1.367(a)-8) and that such failure to file such gain
                   recognition agreement was intentional on the part of each
                   such five-percent transferee shareholder and with the
                   expectation that the transaction would be taxable to each
                   such five-percent transferee shareholder. The parties agree
                   to file U.S. federal income tax returns in a manner
                   consistent with the treatment of the Merger as a taxable
                   transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes, unless
                   otherwise advised in writing by (i) a Governmental Authority,
                   or (ii) such party's tax and/or legal advisors, that

<PAGE>

                   under applicable law, such returns should be filed in a
                   manner inconsistent with such treatment. Each party agrees to
                   use reasonable efforts to notify the other parties to the
                   Agreement in writing promptly if such party is notified in
                   writing by a Governmental Authority or by its tax and/or
                   legal advisor that the Governmental Authority or such tax
                   and/or legal advisor is asserting or concluding that the
                   Merger is a reorganization under the Code and is, therefore,
                   not currently taxable and will take reasonable efforts to
                   consult with the other parties to this Agreement as to
                   whether and how to respond to such advice prior to filing any
                   such return or amending any previously filed returns. Each of
                   the Company and the Company Stockholders (i) acknowledges and
                   agrees that it is not relying upon Parent, Merger Sub, the
                   Company or any Representative thereof as to any opinion
                   regarding the tax treatment or tax consequences of the
                   Merger, and (ii) for good and valuable consideration the
                   receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, on
                   behalf of itself and each of its Representatives, releases
                   and forever discharges the Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or
                   any Representative thereof from any and all claims, demands,
                   proceedings or causes of action relating to any actions by
                   the Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any Representative
                   taken in accordance with this Section 4.10

5.       Representations and Warranties of the Company

         The Company hereby represents and warrants, to and for the benefit of
         Parent and Merger Sub, (any reference to the Company shall be also
         deemed to include the Subsidiaries, as defined in Section 5.1.5 below)
         that the statements contained in this Section 5 are correct and
         complete as of the date of this Agreement, except as set forth in the
         disclosure schedule attached hereto as Schedule 5 (the "Disclosure
         Schedule"). The Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed adequate to
         disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made only to the
         extent that the Disclosure Schedule identifies the exception with
         particularity and describes the relevant facts in reasonable detail,
         provided that an item adequately described on a Schedule shall be
         adequately described by any cross-reference to such Schedule.

         5.1.      Due Organization; Subsidiaries; Etc.

                   5.1.1.    The Company is duly organized, validly existing and
                             in good standing under the laws of the State of
                             Georgia. The Company has all requisite corporate
                             power and authority to conduct its business in the
                             manner in which its business is currently being
                             conducted and to own and use its assets in the
                             manner in which its assets are currently owned and
                             used.

                   5.1.2.    The Company has not conducted any business under or
                             otherwise used, for any purpose or in any
                             jurisdiction, any fictitious name, assumed name,
                             trade name or other name, other than the name
                             "iMedeon" or "Future Horizons".

                   5.1.3.    The Company is not and has not been required to be
                             qualified, authorized, registered or licensed to do
                             business as a foreign corporation in any
                             jurisdiction, except where the failure to be so
                             qualified, authorized, registered or licensed has
                             not had and will not have a Material Adverse Effect
                             on the Company.

                   5.1.4.    Part 5.1.4 of the Disclosure Schedule accurately

                              Proceeding, and, to the Company's best knowledge,
                              no Person has threatened to commence any Legal
                              Proceeding: (i) that involves the Company or any
                              of the assets owned or used by the Company or any
                              Person whose liability the Company has or may have
                              retained or assumed, either contractually or by
                              operation of law; or (ii) that challenges, or that
                              may have the effect of preventing, delaying,
                              making illegal or otherwise interfering with, any
                              of the transactions contemplated by this
                              Agreement. To the Company's best knowledge, no
                              event has occurred, and no claim, dispute or other
                              condition or circumstance exists, that will, or
                              that could reasonably be expected to, give rise to
                              or serve as a basis for the commencement of any
                              such Legal Proceeding.

                    5.18.2.   Except as set forth in Part 5.18.2 of the
                              Disclosure Schedule, no Legal Proceeding has ever

                    5.18.3.   There is no order, writ, injunction, judgment or
                              decree to which the Company, or any of the assets
                              owned or used by the Company, is subject. To the
                              Company's best knowledge, no officer or other
                              employee of the Company is subject to any order,
                              writ, injunction, judgment or decree that
                              prohibits such officer or other employee from
                              engaging in or continuing any conduct, activity or
                              practice relating to the Company's business.

                   absolute and unrestricted right, power and authority to enter

                   this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary
                   action on the part of the Company, its board of directors and

                   Company in accordance with its terms, subject to (i) laws of
                   general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and
                   the relief of debtors, and (ii) rules of law governing

                              by the Company's stockholders, the Company's board

                              declare a default or exercise any remedy under any
                              such Material Agreement, (ii) accelerate the
                              maturity or performance of any such Material

                              liens that will not, in any case or in the
                              aggregate, materially detract from the value of
                              the assets subject thereto or materially impair
                              the operations of the Company).

                    Except for the Georgia Certificate of Merger, the Company is
                    not and will not be required to make any filing with or give

                    in this Agreement, or (y) the consummation of any of the
                    transactions contemplated by this Agreement, other than such
                    filings or Consents that the lack of which can not be
                    reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the
                    Company and the Merger.

          5.21.     No Conflicting Interest. Except as set forth in Part 5.21 of
          ---------------------------------
                    the Disclosure Schedule, the Company is not aware that any

                    Company has any interest in any corporation, partnership, or

                    competition with that of the Company, is a supplier or
                    customer of the Company, or is a party to any contract which
                    may have any effect on the business of the Company;

                    acknowledge that the Company Stockholders that are not
                    natural Persons have made and shall continue to make
                    investments and participate in the businesses, in the
                    ordinary course of their business, in Persons/Entities that
                    may compete, directly or indirectly, with the Company and
                    the Parent, and the Parent and Merger Sub agree that such
                    activities shall not constitute a breach of the
                    representations and warranties contained in this Section
                    5.21.

          5.22.     Brokers. No broker, finder or investment banker, for which
          -----------------
                    the Company or Parent may be liable, is entitled to any
                    brokerage, finder's or other fee or commission in connection
                    with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based
                    upon

                    its directors, officers, employees or agents or any of the
                    Company Stockholders.

          -------------------------
                    Schedule) does not, (i) contain any representation, warranty
                    or information that is false or misleading with respect to
                    any material fact, or (ii) omit to state any material fact
                    necessary in order to make the representations, warranties
                    and information contained and to be contained herein and
                    therein (in the light of the circumstances under which such
                    representations, warranties and information were or will be
                    made or provided) not false or misleading.

          5.24.     Survival/Remedies. The representations and warranties
          ---------------------------
                    contained in this Section 5 shall survive the Closing Date
                    and shall continue in full force and effect until the
                    consummation of the Second Closing. Except for cases of
                    fraud, the sole and exclusive remedy of Parent after the
                    Closing with respect to any claim, loss, liability, damage,
                    deficiency, cost or expense (a "Loss") resulting from the
                    breach of representation or warranty by the Company pursuant
                    to this Agreement shall be to offset the amount of such Loss
                    against any Additional Consideration otherwise deliverable
                    to the Company Stockholders, Management Stockholders and
                    Company Optionholders; provided that such offset shall not
                    exceed an amount (either in cash or Parent Ordinary Shares,
                    as may be applicable to the Second Closing) equal to 50% of
                    the Additional Consideration (deducted from each Company
                    Stockholder, Management Stockholder and Company Optionholder
                    pro rata, provided that each Person's obligation hereunder
                    shall be limited to 50% of the Additional Consideration set
                    forth opposite such Person's name on Schedule 4.1). In
                    furtherance of the foregoing, Parent hereby waives, from and
                    after the Second Closing, any and all rights, claims and
                    causes of action it may have against the Company, or the
                    Company Stockholders, or any of their respective affiliates,
                    directors, officers or employees with respect to all Losses
                    arising under or based upon any law, common law, equity or
                    otherwise.

                   In the event that the Parent shall have the right to offset a
                   Loss in accordance with the above paragraph, and such Loss
                   shall be offset from the Additional Consideration Shares, the
                   price per each of the Additional Consideration Shares to be
                   offset shall be measured in accordance with a value of $0.511
                   per share (the "Average Closing Price").

                    Rights") necessary for its business as currently conducted
                    (the "Parent Intellectual Property Rights"). Parent has not
                    received any written notice (including any cease and desist

                    with asserted rights of others with respect to the use of
                    Intellectual Property Rights. To the knowledge of Parent,
                    all patents and other registrations for Parent Intellectual
                    Property Rights are valid and enforceable and none of the

                    the knowledge of Parent threatened and there are no grounds

                    registrations included in the Parent Intellectual Property
                    Rights is pending or threatened (except for patents expiring
                    at the end of their statutory terms and not due to Parent's
                    failure to pay maintenance fees). Parent has performed all
                    acts and has paid all required fees and taxes to maintain
                    all patents, registrations and applications of such Parent
                    Intellectual Property Rights in full force and effect,
                    except for such non-performance which can not be reasonably
                    expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Parent. To
                    its knowledge, Parent does not and shall not in the conduct
                    of its business as now conducted infringe or conflict with
                    any right of any third party where such infringement or
                    conflict would reasonably be expected to result in any
                    Material Adverse Effect. Parent is not, and will not be as a
                    result of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or

                    any license or other agreement relating to any Intellectual
                    Property Rights. To the knowledge of Parent, no

<PAGE>

                    third party is infringing or has infringed any Parent
                    Intellectual Property Rights and Parent is not aware of any
                    facts indicating a likelihood of the foregoing.

          7.16      Compliance With Legal Requirements. Parent holds all
          --------------------------------------------
                    material licenses, certificates, permits, franchises and
                    rights from all appropriate foreign, federal, state or other
                    public authorities necessary for the conduct of its business
                    and the use of its assets, other than such licenses,
                    certificates, permits or franchises that the lack of which
                    can not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse
                    Effect on the Parent. Parent is presently conducting its
                    business so as to comply in all material respects with all
                    applicable statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations and
                    orders of any governmental authority other than such
                    non-compliances which can not be reasonably expected to have
                    a Material Adverse Effect on the Parent. Further, except as
                    set forth in the Parent SEC Documents, Parent is not
                    presently charged with or, to the knowledge of Parent, under
                    governmental investigation with respect to, any actual or
                    alleged violation of any statute, ordinance, rule or
                    regulation. Parent is presently not the subject of any
                    pending or, to its knowledge, threatened adverse proceeding
                    by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over its
                    business, properties or operations. None of the execution
                    and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the
                    transactions contemplated hereby will result in the
                    termination of any such license, certificate, permit,
                    franchise or right held by Parent.

          7.17      Survival. The representations and warranties contained in
          ------------------
                    this Section 7 shall survive until the expiration of the one
                    hundred twenty (120) day period immediately following the

                    of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, without
                    Parent's prior written consent, and Parent shall not (and
                    shall not permit any of its Representatives to) issue any

                    Lock-up Agreement in form attached hereto as Exhibit 8.2
                    (the "Lock-Up Agreement"). "Locked-Up" shall mean the
                    commitment and obligation of the Company Stockholders not to
                    sell, transfer, offer for sale, pledge, dispose of, encumber

                    Parent issues any of its securities as part of a private
                    placement, and the Lock-Up obligations agreed with the
                    purchasers of such securities are more favorable to such
                    purchasers (compared to the Lock-Up obligations set forth
                    above) then the Lock-Up obligations imposed on the Company
