   the Subsidiaries is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as
   a foreign corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction in which the
   nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such
   qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in

   (ii) have or result in a material adverse effect on the results of
   operations, assets, properties, liabilities (absolute, accrued, contingent or
   otherwise), business or financial condition of the Company and the
   Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (iii) adversely impair the Company's

   Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby
   and thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of
   the Company and no further consent or action is required by the Company, its
   Board of Directors or its stockholders. Each of the Transaction Documents has
   been (or upon delivery will be) duly executed by the Company and is, or when
   delivered in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute, the valid and
   binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in
   accordance with its terms, except as such may be limited by applicable
   bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws affecting creditors'
   rights generally and by general equitable principles.

            (d) No Conflicts. Except with respect to the applicable rules of the
   Nasdaq Stock Market, the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents,
   the issuance and sale of the Shares and the consummation of the transactions
   contemplated hereby and thereby will not (a) conflict with or constitute a
   violation of or default (with the passage of time or otherwise) or give rise
   to any right of termination, material amendment, cancellation or acceleration
   or loss of any material rights under (i) any material contracts to which the
   Company or any Subsidiary is a party (such contracts, the "MATERIAL
   CONTRACTS"), (ii) the certificate of incorporation or the bylaws or any
   similar organizational document of the Company or any Subsidiary or (iii) any
   law, administrative regulation ordinance, writ, injunction, decree or order
   of any court or governmental agency, arbitration panel or authority binding
   upon the Company or any Subsidiary or either's property, or (b) result in the
   creation or imposition (or the obligation to create or impose) of any
   material lien, encumbrance, claim, security interest, pledge, charge or
   restriction of any kind upon any of the properties or assets of the Company
   or any Subsidiary, or an acceleration of indebtedness pursuant to any
   obligation, agreement or condition contained in any Material Contract. No
   consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration,
   qualification or filing with, any regulatory body, administrative agency or
   other governmental body in the United States is required for the execution
   and delivery of the Transaction Documents and the valid issuance and sale of
   the Shares to be sold pursuant to this Agreement, except for any securities
   filings required to be made under federal or state securities laws.

   Common Stock, or securities or rights convertible or exchangeable into shares
   of Common Stock. There are no anti-dilution or price adjustment provisions
   contained in any security issued by the Company (or in any agreement
   providing rights to security holders) and the issue and sale of the Shares
   will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other
   securities to any Person (other than the Purchaser) and will not result in a
   right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion,
   exchange or reset price under such securities. To the knowledge of the
   Company, except as specifically disclosed in Schedule 3.1(f), no Person or
   group of related Persons beneficially owns (as determined pursuant to Rule
   13d-3 under the Exchange Act), or has the right to acquire, by agreement with
   or by obligation binding upon the Company, beneficial ownership of in excess
   of 5% of the outstanding Common Stock, ignoring for such purposes any
   limitation on the number of shares of Common Stock that may be owned at any
   single time.

   regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, and none of the SEC
   Reports, when filed, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or

   in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
   under which they were made, not misleading. Except as described in Schedule
   3.1(g), the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Reports
   comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and

<PAGE>

   poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other
   similar anti-takeover provision under the Company's charter documents or the
   laws of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to any
   of the Purchaser as a result of the Purchaser and the Company fulfilling
   their obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction Documents,
   including, without limitation, as a result of the Company's issuance of the
   Shares and the Purchaser's ownership of the Shares.

            (r) Disclosure. The Company understands and confirms that each of
   the Purchasers will rely on the foregoing representations in effecting
   transactions in securities of the Company. All disclosures provided to the
   Purchasers regarding the Company, its business and the transactions
   contemplated hereby, including the Schedules to this Agreement, furnished by
   or on behalf of the Company are true and correct and do not contain any
   untrue statement of a material fact or, to the best of the Company's
   knowledge, omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the
   statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
   were made, not misleading. No event or circumstance has occurred or
   information exists with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or
   its or their business, properties, prospects, operations or financial
   conditions, which, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public
   disclosure or announcement by the Company but which has not been so publicly
   announced or disclosed. The Company acknowledges and agrees that no Purchaser
   makes or has made any representations or warranties with respect to the
   transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in
   Section 3.2.

            (s) Acknowledgment Regarding Purchasers' Purchase of Shares. The
   Company acknowledges and agrees that each of the Purchasers is acting solely
   in the capacity of an arm's length purchaser with respect to this Agreement
   and the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company further acknowledges
   that no Purchaser is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the
   Company or any other Purchaser (or in any similar capacity) with respect to
   this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and any advice given
   by any

                                      10.
<PAGE>

   Purchaser or any of their respective representatives or agents in connection
   with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby is merely
   incidental to such Purchaser's purchase of the Shares. The Company further
   represents to each Purchaser that the Company's decision to enter into this
   Agreement has been based solely on the independent evaluation of the
   transactions contemplated hereby by the Company and its representatives.

            (t) Patents and Trademarks. The Company and the Subsidiaries have,
   or have rights to use, all patents, patent applications, trademarks,
   trademark applications, service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and
   other similar rights that are necessary or material for use in connection
   with their respective businesses and which the failure to so have would, or
   could reasonably be expected to, have a Material Adverse Effect
   (collectively, the "INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS"). Neither the Company nor
   any Subsidiary has received written notice that, or has knowledge that, the
   Intellectual Property Rights used by the Company or any Subsidiary conflicts
   with, or violates or infringes upon, the rights of any Person. To the
   knowledge of the Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights are
   enforceable and there is no existing infringement by another Person of any of
   the Intellectual Property Rights. The Company is not aware of any claim or
   potential claim against the Company or any Subsidiary regarding any of the
   Intellectual Property Rights. The Company or any Subsidiary does not, in the
   conduct of its business, infringe or conflict with any right or patent of any
   third party, or any discovery, invention, product or process that is the
   subject of a patent application filed by any third party, known to the
   Company. The Company and each Subsidiary has taken reasonable steps to
   protect the material intellectual property of the Company. The execution,
   delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement, and the
   consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, will not result in the
   loss or impairment of, or give rise to any right of any third party to
   terminate or materially alter, any of the Company's or any Subsidiary's
   material rights to own any of its intellectual property or its material
   rights under any agreements relating to such intellectual property, nor
   require the consent of any governmental authority or third party in respect
   of any such intellectual property.

            (u) Employee Benefit Plans; Employee Matters. The consummation of
   the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not, alone or in
   conjunction with any other possible event (including termination of
   employment) (i) entitle any current or former employee or other service
   provider of the Company or any Subsidiary to severance benefits or any other
   payment, compensation or benefit (including forgiveness of indebtedness),
   except as expressly provided by this Agreement or (ii) accelerate the time of
   payment or vesting, or increase the amount of compensation or benefit due any
   such employee or service provider, alone or in conjunction with any other
   possible event (including termination of employment). The Company and each
   Subsidiary is in compliance in all material respects with all currently
   applicable laws and regulations respecting employment, discrimination in
   employment, terms and conditions of employment, wages, hours and occupational
   safety and health and employment practices, and is not engaged in any unfair
   labor practice. To the Company's knowledge, no employees of the Company or
   any Subsidiary are in violation of any term of any material employment
   contract, patent disclosure agreement, noncompetition agreement or any
   restrictive covenant to a former employer relating to the right of any such
   employee to be employed by the Company or any Subsidiary because of the
   nature of the business conducted or presently proposed to be conducted by the
   Company or any Subsidiary or to the use of

                                      11.
<PAGE>

   trade secrets or proprietary information of others. No key employee of the
   Company or any Subsidiary has given written notice of resignation to the
   Company or any Subsidiary and, to the Company's knowledge, no key employee
   intends to terminate his or her employment with the Company or any
   Subsidiary.

            (v) Insurance. The Company and the Subsidiaries are insured by
   insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks
   and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the businesses in which
   the Company and the Subsidiaries are engaged. Neither the Company nor any
   Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its
   existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain
   similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its
   business without a significant increase in cost.

            (w) Regulatory Permits. The Company and the Subsidiaries possess all
   certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal,
   state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their
   respective businesses as described in the SEC Reports, except where the
   failure to possess such permits would not, individually or in the aggregate,
   have or result in a Material Adverse Effect ("MATERIAL PERMITS"), and neither
   the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings
   relating to the revocation or modification of any Material Permit.

            (x) Environmental Laws. Except as would not have a Material Adverse
   Effect, the Company and each of the Subsidiaries is not in violation of any
   applicable statute, law or regulation relating to the environment or
   occupational health and safety, and no material expenditures are or will be
   required in order to comply with any such existing statute, law or
   regulation.

            (y) Transactions With Affiliates and Employees. Except as set forth
   in SEC Reports filed at least ten days prior to the date hereof, none of the
   officers or directors of the Company and, to the knowledge of the Company,
   none of the employees of the Company is presently a party to any transaction
   with the Company or any Subsidiary (other than for services as employees,
   officers and directors), including any contract, agreement or other
   arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for
   rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring
   payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the
   knowledge of the Company, any entity in which any officer, director, or any
   such employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee
   or partner.

            (z) Internal Accounting Controls. Except as described in Schedule
   3.1(z), the Company and the Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal
   accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i)
   transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or specific
   authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
   preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
   accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to
   assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific
   authorization and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared
   with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is
   taken with respect to any differences.

                                      12.

     3.2 Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser. Each Purchaser hereby,
as to itself only and for no other Purchaser, represents and warrants to the
Company as follows:

         (a) Organization; Authority. Such Purchaser is an entity duly
   organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
   jurisdiction of its organization with the requisite corporate or partnership
   power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions
   contemplated by the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its
   obligations hereunder and thereunder. The purchase by such Purchaser of the
   Shares hereunder has been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part
   of such Purchaser. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by
   such Purchaser and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of such
   Purchaser, enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with its terms.

         (b) Investment Intent. Such Purchaser is acquiring the Shares as
   principal for its own account for investment purposes only and not with a
   view to or for distributing or reselling such Shares or any part thereof,
   without prejudice, however, to such Purchaser's right, subject to the
   provisions of this Agreement, at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of
   all or any part of such Shares pursuant to an effective registration
   statement under the Securities Act or under an exemption from such
   registration and in compliance with applicable federal and state securities
   laws. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed a representation or warranty
   by such Purchaser to hold the Shares for any period of time.

         (c) Purchaser Status. At the time such Purchaser was offered the Shares
   it was, and at the date hereof it is, an "accredited investor" as defined in
   Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act.

         (d) Experience of such Purchaser. Such Purchaser, either alone or
   together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and
   experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of
   evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Shares,
   and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. Such Purchaser
   is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares and, at the
   present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                         OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

   4.1 Transfer Restrictions.

         (a) The Shares may only be disposed of pursuant to an effective
   registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available
   exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in
   compliance with any applicable state securities laws. In connection with any
   transfer of Shares other than (i) pursuant to an effective registration
   statement, (ii) to the Company or (iii) pursuant to Rule 144(k), except as
   otherwise set forth herein, the Company may require the transferor to provide
   to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor to the effect
   that such transfer does not require registration under the Securities Act.
   Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company hereby consents to and agrees to
   register on the books of the Company and with its Transfer Agent,

                                      13.
<PAGE>

   without any such legal opinion, any transfer of Shares by a Purchaser to an
   Affiliate of such Purchaser, provided that no registration of such transfer
   is required under the Securities Act. In addition, Purchaser shall not
   knowingly transfer any Shares to a competitor of the Company.

         (b) The Purchaser agree to the imprinting, so long as is required by
   this Section 4.1(b), of the following legend on any certificate evidencing
   Shares:

      THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
      COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN
      EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
      (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD
      EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE
      SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A
      TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE
      SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
      NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN
      CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING
      ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.

   Certificates evidencing Shares shall not be required to contain such legend
   or any other legend (i) while a Registration Statement covering the resale of
   such Shares is effective under the Securities Act, or (ii) following any sale
   of such Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) if such Shares are eligible for
   sale under Rule 144(k), or (iv) if such legend is not required under
   applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial
   interpretations and pronouncements issued by the Staff of the Commission).
   The Company shall cause its counsel to issue the legal opinion included in
   the Transfer Agent Instructions to the Transfer Agent on the Effective Date.
   At such time as a legend is no longer required for certain Shares, the
   Company will no later than three Trading Days following the delivery by a
   Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a legended certificate
   representing such Shares, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser
   a certificate representing such Shares that is free from the restrictive
   legends set forth above. The Company may not make any notation on its records
   or give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company that enlarge the
   restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section. For so long as any
   Purchaser owns Shares, the Company will not effect or publicly announce its
   intention to effect any exchange, recapitalization or other transaction that
   effectively requires or rewards physical delivery of certificates evidencing
   the Common Stock.

         (c) The Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from time
   to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Shares in
   connection with a bona fide margin agreement or other loan or financing
   arrangement secured by the Shares and, if required under the terms of such
   agreement, loan or arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer pledged or
   secured Shares to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer
   would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of the
   pledgee, secured party or

                                      14.
<PAGE>

   pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no notice shall
   be required of such pledge. At the appropriate Purchaser's expense, the
   Company will execute and deliver such required documentation as a pledgee or
   secured party of Shares may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or
   transfer of the Shares, including the preparation and filing of any required
   prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act or other
   applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of
   selling stockholders thereunder.

   4.2 Furnishing of Information. Beginning with the filing of the 10-K for the
year ending December 31, 2004, for as long as any Purchaser owns Shares, the
Company covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and
file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the
Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act. Upon the request of
any Purchaser, the Company shall deliver to such Purchaser a written
certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with
the preceding sentence. On and after the filing of the 10-K for the year ending
December 31, 2004, for as long as any Purchaser owns Shares, if the Company is
not required to file reports pursuant to such laws, it will prepare and furnish
to the Purchaser and make publicly available in accordance with paragraph (c) of
Rule 144 such information as is required for the Purchaser to sell the Shares
under Rule 144. The Company further covenants that on and after the filing of
the 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2004, it will take such further action
as any holder of Shares may reasonably request to satisfy the provisions of Rule
144 applicable to the issuer of securities relating to transactions for the sale
of securities pursuant to Rule 144.

   4.3 Integration. The Company shall not, and shall use its commercially
reasonable best efforts to ensure that no Affiliate of the Company shall, sell,
offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any
security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be
integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares in a manner that would require
the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Shares to the
Purchaser, or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares for
purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market.

   4.4 Reservation of Shares. The Company shall maintain a reserve from its duly
authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Transaction
Documents in such amount as may be required to fulfill its obligations in full
under the Transaction Documents. In the event that at any time the then
authorized shares of Common Stock are insufficient for the Company to satisfy
its obligations in full under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall
promptly take such actions as may be required to increase the number of
authorized shares.

   4.5 Subsequent Placements.

         (a) For so long as Purchasers and/or their Affiliates hold at least 10%
   of the outstanding Common Stock (the "SUBSEQUENT PLACEMENT PERIOD"), the
   Company will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, grant any option to
   purchase, or otherwise dispose of (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any
   option to purchase or other disposition of) any of its or the Subsidiaries'
   equity or equity equivalent securities, including without limitation any
   debt, preferred stock or other instrument or security that is, at any time
   during its life and under any circumstances, convertible into or exchangeable
   or exercisable for Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (any such offer,
   sale, grant, disposition or announcement being

                                      15.
<PAGE>

   referred to as a "SUBSEQUENT PLACEMENT") unless the Company shall have first
   complied with this Section 4.5(a).

               (i) The Company shall deliver to each Purchaser a written notice
      (the "OFFER") of any proposed or intended issuance or sale or exchange of
      the securities being offered in a Subsequent Placement (the "OFFERED
      SECURITIES"), which Offer shall (w) identify and describe the Offered
      Securities, (x) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to
      be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered
      Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (y) identify the Persons or
      entities (if known) to which or with which the Offered Securities are to
      be offered, issued, sold or exchanged and (z) offer to issue and sell to
      or exchange with Purchaser on the same terms as those set forth in the
      Subsequent Placement a portion of the Offered Securities based on such
      Purchaser's pro rata percentage holdings of the outstanding Common Stock
      at the time of the Offer (the "BASIC AMOUNT"), and with respect to each
      Purchaser that elects to purchase its Basic Amount, any additional portion
      of the Offered Securities attributable to the Basic Amounts of other
      Purchasers as such Purchaser shall indicate it will purchase or acquire
      should the other Purchasers subscribe for less than their Basic Amounts
      (the "UNDERSUBSCRIPTION AMOUNT").

               (ii) To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, a Purchaser must
      deliver a written notice to the Company within ten (10) Trading Day(s)
      after receipt of the Offer, setting forth the portion of the Purchaser's
      Basic Amount that such Purchaser elects to purchase and, if such Purchaser
      shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription
      Amount, if any, that such Purchaser elects to purchase (in either case,
      the "NOTICE OF ACCEPTANCE"). If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all
      Purchaser are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts, then the
      Purchaser who has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of
      Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts
      subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for;
      provided, however, that if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for
      exceed the difference between the total of all the Basic Amounts and the
      Basic Amounts subscribed for (the "AVAILABLE UNDERSUBSCRIPTION AMOUNT"),
      the Purchaser who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be
      entitled to purchase on that portion of the Available Undersubscription
      Amount as the Basic Amount of such Purchaser bears to the total Basic
      Amounts of all Purchaser that have subscribed for Undersubscription
      Amounts, subject to rounding by the Board to the extent its deems
      reasonably necessary.

               (iii) The Company shall have sixty (60) Trading Days from the
      expiration of the period set forth in Section 4.5(a)(ii) above to issue,
      sell or exchange all or any part of such Offered Securities as to which a
      Notice of Acceptance has not been given by the Purchaser (the "REFUSED
      SECURITIES"), but only upon terms and conditions (including, without
      limitation, unit prices and interest rates) that are not materially more
      favorable to the acquiring Person or Persons or materially less favorable
      to the Company than those set forth in the Offer.

               (iv)  In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than
      all the Refused Securities (any such sale to be in the manner and on the
      terms specified in

                                      16.
<PAGE>

      Section 4.5(a)(iii) above), then Purchaser may, at its sole option and in
      its sole discretion, reduce the number or amount of the Offered Securities
      specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less
      than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that the Purchaser
      elected to purchase pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(ii) above multiplied by a
      fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of
      Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or
      exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold to Purchaser
      pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(ii) above prior to such reduction) and (ii) the
      denominator of which shall be the original amount of the Offered
      Securities. In the event that any Purchaser so elects to reduce the number
      or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the
      Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced number or
      amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have
      again been offered to the Purchaser in accordance with Section 4.5(a)(i)
      above.

               (v) Upon the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or
      less than all of the Refused Securities, the Purchasers shall acquire from
      the Company, and the Company shall issue to the Purchasers, the number or
      amount of Offered Securities specified in the Notices of Acceptance, as
      reduced pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(iv) above if the Purchasers have so
      elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer. The
      purchase by the Purchasers of any Offered Securities is subject in all
      cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and the
      Purchaser of a purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities
      reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Purchaser and their
      respective counsel.

               (vi) Any Offered Securities not acquired by the Purchaser or
      other Persons in accordance with Section 4.5(a)(iii) above may not be
      issued, sold or exchanged until they are again offered to the Purchaser
      under the procedures specified in this Agreement.

            (b) The restrictions contained in paragraph (a) of this Section
   shall not apply to Excluded Stock.

      4.6 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall, on the
Closing Date, issue a press release acceptable to the Purchasers disclosing all
material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company shall, on or
before the Business Day following the Closing Date, file a Current Report on
Form 8-K with the Commission (the "8-K FILING") describing the terms of the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and including as exhibits
to such Current Report on Form 8-K this Agreement, in the form required by the
Exchange Act. Thereafter, the Company shall timely file any filings and notices
required by the Commission or applicable law with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby and provide copies thereof to the Purchasers promptly after
filing. Except with respect to the 8-K Filing and the press release referenced
above (a copy of which will be provided to the Purchasers for their review as
early as practicable prior to its filing), the Company shall, at least two
Trading Days prior to the filing or dissemination of any disclosure required by
this paragraph, provide a copy thereof to the Purchasers for their review. The
Company and the Purchasers shall consult with each other in issuing any press
releases or otherwise making public statements or filings and other
communications with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading Market
with respect

                                      17.
<PAGE>

to the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither party shall
issue any such press release or otherwise make any such public statement, filing
or other communication without the prior consent of the other, except if such
disclosure is required by law, in which case the disclosing party shall promptly
provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement, filing or
other communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not
publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser, or include the name of any
Purchaser in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading
Market, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser, except to the
extent such disclosure is required by law or Trading Market regulations, in
which case the Company shall provide the Purchaser with prior notice of such
disclosure. Subject to the foregoing, neither the Company nor any Purchaser
shall issue any press releases or any other public statements with respect to
the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that the Company shall
be entitled, without the prior approval of any Purchaser, to make any press
release or other public disclosure with respect to such transactions (i) in
substantial conformity with the 8-K Filing and contemporaneously therewith and
(ii) as is required by applicable law and regulations (provided that in the case
of clause (i) Purchaser shall be consulted by the Company in connection with any
such press release or other public disclosure prior to its release). Each press
release disseminated during the 12 months preceding the date of this Agreement
did not at the time of release contain any untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in
order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which
they are made, not misleading

      4.7 Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale
of the Shares hereunder for working capital purposes and, unless otherwise
approved in writing by SAIF or pursuant to the Credit Agreement, provided that
the Credit Agreement shall have been amended pursuant to an amendment thereto
approved by SAIF prior to the Closing, not for the satisfaction of any portion
of the Company's debt (other than payment of trade payables and accrued expenses
in the ordinary course of the Company's business and consistent with prior
practices), to redeem any Company equity or equity-equivalent securities or to
settle any litigation outstanding on the Closing Date.

      4.8 Inspection Rights. Purchasers shall have the right to visit and
inspect any of the properties of the Company or any of its subsidiaries at such
reasonable times and as often as may be reasonably requested; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be obligated under this Section 4.8 with respect to
information which the Board determines in good faith is confidential or
attorney-client privileged and should not, therefore, be disclosed.

      4.9 Reports. So long as Purchasers and/or their Affiliates continue to
hold at least 10% of the outstanding Common Stock, the Company shall provide
Purchasers with all materials submitted to the Board at the same time and in the

   Board (collectively, the "INVESTOR DIRECTORS"). The Company shall recommend
   the election of the Investor Directors at each meeting of shareholders where
   the election of directors is considered and shall use its best efforts to
   cause the Investor Directors to be elected and re-elected to the Board.
   Purchasers shall have the right to remove or replace any of the Investor
   Directors by giving notice to such Investor Director and the Company, and the
   Company shall use its best efforts to effect the removal or replacement of
   any such Investor Director. Unless prohibited by applicable law, Investors
   shall have the right to have two Investor Directors, as determined by
   Purchasers, be members of each committee of the Board, and the Company shall
   use its best efforts to appoint and maintain such Investor Directors on each
   committee of the Board, as requested by Purchasers. Any Investor Director who

            (c) At the Closing, unless otherwise approved by the Company and
   Purchasers, the authorized number of members of the Board shall be nine (9).
   From and after the Closing until Purchasers and their Affiliates no longer

   Company's Chief Executive Officer and the remaining directors shall be
   independent directors not affiliated with management.

         4.11 Restrictive Covenants. For so long as Purchasers and their
Affiliates continue to hold at least 15% of the outstanding Common Stock,
without the prior written consent of Purchasers, the Company shall not (and

   rata from all stockholders pursuant to a tender offer;

            (c) take any action that may result in the Common Stock ceasing to
   be registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act;

                               REGISTRATION RIGHTS

         6.1 Registration.

            (a) As promptly as possible, and in any event on or prior to April
   15, 2005 (the "FILING DEADLINE"), the Company shall prepare and file with the
   Commission a Registration Statement covering the resale of all Registrable
   Securities for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule
   415. The Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 (except if the Company
   is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on
   Form S-3, in which case such registration shall be on Form S-1 or another
   appropriate form in accordance herewith as the Purchaser may consent) and
   shall contain

                                      21.
<PAGE>

   (except if otherwise directed by the Purchaser) the "Plan of Distribution"
   attached hereto as Exhibit B.

            (b) The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Registration
   Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as promptly as possible
   after the filing thereof, but in any event prior to the Required
   Effectiveness Date, and shall use its best efforts to keep the Registration
   Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until such time as
   all Shares can be sold under Rule 144 in any consecutive 180-day period or
   such earlier date when all Registrable Securities covered by such
   Registration Statement have been sold (the "EFFECTIVENESS PERIOD").

            (c) The Company shall notify Purchaser in writing promptly (and in
   any event within one Trading Day) after receiving notification from the
   Commission that the Registration Statement has been declared effective.

            (d) Upon the occurrence of any Event (as defined below) and on every
   monthly anniversary thereof until the applicable Event is cured, as partial
   relief for the damages suffered therefrom by each Purchaser (which remedy
   shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available under this Agreement,
   at law or in equity), the Company shall pay to each Purchaser an amount in
   cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 2.0% of such
   Purchaser's aggregate purchase price hereunder, upon the occurrence of the
   Event, and 1.0% of such Purchaser's aggregate purchase price hereunder, upon
   the last business day of each successive ten-day period thereafter, until all
   such Events have been cured. The payments to which a Purchaser shall be
   entitled pursuant to this Section 6.1(d) are referred to herein as "EVENT
   PAYMENTS." Any Event Payments payable pursuant to the terms hereof shall
   apply on a pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an
   Event. In the event the Company fails to make Event Payments in a timely
   manner, such Event Payments shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month
   (prorated for partial months) until paid in full.

For such purposes, each of the following shall constitute an "EVENT":

               (i)   the Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to the
      Filing Deadline or is not declared effective on or prior to the Required
      Effectiveness Date, provided that if the Registration Statement is not
      timely filed or declared effective due solely to Purchaser's failure to
      provide required information reasonably requested by the Company, the
      Event described above shall be tolled accordingly until such failure is
      cured;

               (ii)  after the Effective Date, a Purchaser is not permitted to
      sell Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement (or a
      subsequent Registration Statement filed in replacement thereof) for any
      reason for five or more Trading Days (whether or not consecutive), except
      as permitted by Section 6.1(e) below;

               (iii) after the Effective Date, unless waived in writing by
      Purchasers, any Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
      Statement are not listed on an Eligible Market;

                                      22.
<PAGE>

               (iv)  after the Effective Date, unless waived in writing by
      Purchasers, the Common Stock is not listed or quoted, or is suspended from
      trading, on an Eligible Market for a period of three Trading Days (which
      need not be consecutive Trading Days).

         (e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the
   Company may, by written notice to the Purchasers, suspend sales under a
   Registration Statement after the Effective Date thereof and/or require that
   the Purchaser immediately cease the sale of shares of Common Stock pursuant
   thereto and/or defer the filing of any subsequent Registration Statement if
   (i) the Company is engaged in a material merger, acquisition or sale and the
   Board determines in good faith, by appropriate resolutions, that, as a result
   of such sales activity it would be materially detrimental to the Company
   (other than relating solely to the price of the Common Stock), (ii) the SEC
   or any other federal or state governmental authority issues any stop order
   suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or initiates any
   proceedings for that purpose; or (iii) there is an event or circumstance that
   necessitates the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or
   related Prospectus, or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated
   therein by reference, so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it
   will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to
   state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
   statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of a related
   Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
   any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
   necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
   under which they were made, not misleading. Upon receipt of such notice,
   Purchaser shall immediately discontinue any sales of Registrable Securities
   pursuant to such registration until such Purchaser has received copies of a
   supplemented or amended Prospectus or until such Purchaser is advised in
   writing by the Company that the then-current Prospectus may be used and has
   received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are
   incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in such Prospectus. In no
   event, however, shall this right be exercised to suspend sales beyond the
   period during which (in the good faith determination of the Board) the
   failure to require such suspension would be materially detrimental to the
   Company. Furthermore, in no event may the Company exercise its rights
   hereunder for a period of more than 30 days in any twelve-month period.
   Immediately after the end of any suspension period under this Section 6.1(e),
   the Company shall take all necessary actions (including filing any required
   supplemental prospectus) to restore the effectiveness of the applicable
   Registration Statement and the ability of the Purchaser to publicly resell
   their Registrable Securities pursuant to such effective Registration
   Statement.

         (f) The Company shall not, prior to the Effective Date of the
   Registration Statement, prepare and file with the Commission a registration
   statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of
   others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities.

      6.2 Registration Procedures. In connection with the Company's registration
obligations hereunder, the Company shall:

   counsel and independent certified public accountants to respond to such
   inquiries as shall be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of Purchaser
   Counsel, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the
   Securities Act. The Company shall not file a Registration Statement or any
   such Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto to which Purchaser
   holding a majority of the Registrable Securities shall reasonably object.

         (b) (i) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including
   post-effective amendments, to each Registration Statement and the Prospectus
   used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the Registration

   for the Effectiveness Period and prepare and file with the Commission such
   additional Registration Statements in order to register for resale under the
   Securities Act all of the Registrable Securities; (ii) cause the related

   Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so
   supplemented.

         (c) Notify each Purchaser of Registrable Securities to be sold and
   Purchaser Counsel as promptly as reasonably possible, and (if requested by
   any such Person) confirm such notice in writing no later than one Trading Day
   thereafter, of any of the following events: (i) the Commission notifies the
   Company whether there will be a "review" of any Registration Statement; (ii)
   the Commission comments in writing on any Registration Statement (in which
   case the Company shall deliver to Purchaser a copy of such comments and of
   all written responses thereto); (iii) any Registration Statement or any
   post-effective amendment is declared effective; (iv) the Commission or any
   other Federal or state governmental authority requests any amendment or
   supplement to any Registration Statement or Prospectus or requests additional
   information related thereto; (v) the Commission issues any stop order
   suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or initiates any
   Proceedings for that purpose; (vi) the Company receives notice of any
   suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any
   Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or
   threat of any Proceeding for such purpose; or (vii) the financial statements
   included in any Registration Statement become ineligible for inclusion
   therein or any statement made in any Registration Statement or Prospectus or
   any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference
   is untrue in any material

                                      24.
<PAGE>

   respect or any revision to a Registration Statement, Prospectus or other
   document is required so that it will not contain any untrue statement of a
   material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated
   therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
   circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

         (d) Use its best efforts to avoid the issuance of or, if issued, obtain
   the withdrawal of (i) any order suspending the effectiveness of any
   Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or
   exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale
   in any jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable moment.

         (e) Furnish to Purchasers and Purchaser Counsel, without charge, at
   least one conformed copy of each Registration Statement and each amendment
   thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents
   incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and all
   exhibits to the extent requested by such Person (including those previously
   furnished or incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such
   documents with the Commission.

         (f) Promptly deliver to Purchasers and Purchaser's Counsel, without
   charge, as many copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form
   of prospectus) and each amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons may
   reasonably request. The Company hereby consents to the use of such Prospectus
   and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Purchasers in
   connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered
   by such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto.

         (g) (i) In the time and manner required by each Trading Market, prepare
   and file with such Trading Market an additional shares listing application
   covering all of the Registrable Securities; (ii) take all steps necessary to
   cause such Registrable Securities to be approved for listing on each Trading
   Market as soon as possible thereafter; (iii) provide to the Purchasers
   evidence of such listing; and (iv) maintain the listing of such Registrable
   Securities on each such Trading Market or another Eligible Market.

         (h) Prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its
   best efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Purchaser
   and each applicable Purchaser Counsel in connection with the registration or
   qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of such
   Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky
   laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any Purchaser requests
   in writing, to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption
   therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period and to do any and all
   other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such
   jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration
   Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to file
   any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign
   corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is
   not so qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing
   business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise subject.

         (i) Cooperate with the Purchasers to facilitate the timely preparation
   and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be
   delivered to a transferee

                                      25.
<PAGE>

   pursuant to a Registration Statement, which certificates shall be free, to
   the extent permitted by this Agreement, of all restrictive legends, and to
   enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered
   in such names as any such Purchaser may request, or, if requested by a
   Purchaser, provide for the Registrable Securities to be held electronically
   if permitted by applicable laws and regulations.

         (j) Upon the occurrence of any event described in Section 6.2(c)(vii),
   as promptly as reasonably possible, prepare a supplement or amendment,
   including a post-effective amendment, to the Registration Statement or a
   supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed
   to be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document
   so that, as thereafter delivered, neither the Registration Statement nor such
   Prospectus will contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
   state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
   statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
   made, not misleading.

         (k) Cooperate with any due diligence investigation undertaken by the
   Purchaser in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities, including
   without limitation by making available any documents and information;
   provided that the Company will not deliver or make available to any Purchaser
   material, nonpublic information unless such Purchaser specifically requests
   in advance to receive material, nonpublic information in writing.

         (l) If holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being
   offered pursuant to a Registration Statement select underwriters for the
   offering, the Company shall enter into and perform its obligations under an
   underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, including, without
   limitation, by providing customary legal opinions, comfort letters and
   indemnification and contribution obligations.

         (m) Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission.

      6.3 Registration Expenses. The Company shall pay (or reimburse the
Purchasers for) all fees and expenses incident to the performance of or
compliance with this Agreement by the Company, including without limitation (a)
all registration and filing fees and expenses, including without limitation
those related to filings with the Commission, any Trading Market and in
connection with applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws, (b) printing
expenses (including without limitation expenses of printing certificates for
Registrable Securities and of printing prospectuses requested by the
Purchasers), (c) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (d) fees and
expenses of counsel for the Company and up to $10,000 in the aggregate for fees
and expenses of Purchaser Counsel related to this Article VI, (e) fees and
expenses of all other Persons retained by the Company in connection with the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (f) all
listing fees to be paid by the Company to the Trading Market.

      6.4 Indemnification.

         (a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall, notwithstanding
   any termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless each
   Purchaser, the officers,

                                      26.
<PAGE>

   directors, partners, members, agents, brokers (including brokers who offer
   and sell Registrable Securities as principal as a result of a pledge or any
   failure to perform under a margin call of Common Stock), investment advisors
   and employees of each of them, each Person who controls any such Purchaser
   (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
   Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, partners, members, agents and
   employees of each such controlling Person, to the fullest extent permitted by
   applicable law, from and against any and all Losses, as incurred, arising out
   of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
   contained in the Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any form of
   prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary
   prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission
   of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
   statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus or form of prospectus or
   supplement thereto, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
   made) not misleading, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that (i)
   such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged
   omissions are based solely upon information regarding such Purchaser
   furnished in writing to the Company by such Purchaser expressly for use
   therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Purchaser or
   such Purchaser's proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities
   and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Purchaser
   expressly for use in the Registration Statement, such Prospectus or such form
   of Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) the use by
   such Purchaser of an outdated or defective Prospectus (or any Prospectus
   after such Purchaser receives notice of an event contemplated by Section
   6.1(e)) after the Company has notified such Purchaser in writing that the
   Prospectus is outdated or defective or of an event contemplated by Section
   6.1(e) and prior to the receipt by such Purchaser of the Advice contemplated
   in Section 6.5. The Company shall notify the Purchasers promptly of the
   institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding of which the Company is
   aware in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

         (b) Indemnification by Purchaser. Each Purchaser shall, severally and
   not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors,
   officers, agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within
   the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the
   Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such
   controlling Persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from
   and against all Losses (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in
   a final judgment not subject to appeal or review) arising solely out of any
   untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement,
   any Prospectus, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement
   thereto, or arising solely out of any omission of a material fact required to
   be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of
   any Prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in the light of
   the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading to the extent,
   but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained
   in any information so furnished in writing by such Purchaser to the Company
   specifically for inclusion in such Registration Statement or such Prospectus
   or to the extent that (i) such untrue statements or omissions are based
   solely upon information regarding such Purchaser furnished in writing to the
   Company by such Purchaser expressly for use therein, or to the extent that
   such information relates to such Purchaser or such Purchaser's proposed
   method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and
   expressly approved in writing by such Purchaser expressly for use in the
   Registration Statement, such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any
   amendment or supplement

                                      27.
<PAGE>

   thereto or (ii) the use by such Purchaser of an outdated or defective
   Prospectus (or any Prospectus after such Purchaser receives notice of an
   event contemplated by Section 6.1(e)) after the Company has notified such
   Purchaser in writing that the Prospectus is outdated or defective or of an
   event contemplated by Section 6.1(e) and prior to the receipt by such
   Purchaser of the Advice contemplated in Section 6.5. In no event shall the
   liability of any selling Purchaser hereunder be greater in amount than the
   dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Purchaser upon the sale of
   the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

         (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding shall be
   brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an
   "INDEMNIFIED PARTY"), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person
   from whom indemnity is sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") in writing, and the
   Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment
   of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment
   of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof;
   provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall
   not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant
   to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally
   determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not
   subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have proximately
   and materially adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

         An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in
any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and
expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or
Parties unless: (i) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such
fees and expenses; or (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to
assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (iii) the
named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include
both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified
Party shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely
to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the
Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the
expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the
right to assume the defense of such Indemnified Party and such counsel shall be
at the expense of the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be
liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written
consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party
shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any
settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party
is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such
Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of
such Proceeding.

         All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable
fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or
preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this
Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten Trading
Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party (regardless of whether
it is ultimately determined that an Indemnified Party is not entitled to
indemnification hereunder; provided, that the Indemnifying Party may require
such Indemnified

                                      28.
<PAGE>

Party to undertake to reimburse all such fees and expenses to the extent it is
finally judicially determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to
indemnification hereunder).

         (d) Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section 6.4(a)
   or (b) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party (by reasons other than the
   specified exclusions to indemnification), then each Indemnifying Party, in
   lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount
   paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, in such
   proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
   Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions,
   statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other
   relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying
   Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other
   things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged
   untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a
   material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied
   by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties' relative
   intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
   prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a
   party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the
   limitations set forth in Section 6.4(c), any reasonable attorneys' or other
   reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any
   Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees
   or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available
   to such party in accordance with its terms.

         The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if
   contribution pursuant to this Section 6.4(d) were determined by pro rata
   allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into
   account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding
   paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.4(d), no
   Purchaser shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in
   excess of the amount by which the proceeds actually received by such
   Purchaser from the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the
   Proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that such Purchaser has
   otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue
   statement or omission or alleged omission. 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 indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are
   in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the
   Indemnified Parties.

      6.5 Dispositions. Each Purchaser agrees that it will comply with the
prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it in
connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration
Statement. Each Purchaser further agrees that, upon receipt of a notice from the
Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 6.1(e)
or Sections 6.2(c)(v), (vi) or (vii), such Purchaser will discontinue
disposition of such Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement
until such Purchaser's receipt of the copies of the supplemented Prospectus
and/or amended Registration Statement contemplated by Section 6.2(j), or until
it is advised in writing (the "ADVICE") by the Company that the use of the
applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and, in either case, has received copies
of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be

                                      29.
<PAGE>

incorporated by reference in such Prospectus or Registration Statement. The
Company may provide appropriate stop orders to enforce the provisions of this
paragraph.

      6.6 No Piggyback on Registrations. Neither the Company nor any of its
security holders (other than the Purchaser in such capacity pursuant hereto) may
include securities of the Company in the Registration Statement other than the
Registrable Securities, and the Company shall not after the date hereof enter
into any agreement providing any such right to any of its security holders.

      6.7 Piggy-Back Registrations.

         (a) The Company shall notify all holders of Registrable Securities then
   outstanding ("HOLDERS" and each a "HOLDER") in writing at least 15 days prior
   to the filing of any registration statement under the Securities Act for
   purposes of a public offering of securities of the Company (including, but
   not limited to, registration statements relating to secondary offerings of
   securities of the Company, but excluding Special Registration Statements) and
   shall afford each such Holder an opportunity to include in such registration
   statement all or part of such Registrable Securities held by such Holder.
   Each Holder desiring to include in any such registration statement all or any
   part of the Registrable Securities held by it shall, within 15 days after the
   above-described notice from the Company, so notify the Company in writing.
   Such notice shall state the intended method of disposition of the Registrable
   Securities by such Holder. If a Holder decides not to include all of its
   Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the
   Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include
   any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration statement or
   registration statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to
   offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth
   herein.

         (b) If the registration statement under which the Company gives notice
   under this Section 6.7 is for an underwritten public offering, the Company
   shall so advise the Holders of Registrable Securities then outstanding. In
   such event, the right of any such Holder to be included in a registration
   pursuant to this Section 6.7 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's
   participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's
   Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All
   Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such
   underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form
   with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the
   Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the
   underwriter determines in good faith that marketing factors require a
   limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the number of shares
   that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated: first, to the
   Company; second, to the Holders on a pro rata basis based on the total number
   of Registrable Securities held by the Holders; and third, to any stockholders
   of the Company (other than a Holder) on a pro rata basis; provided, however,
   that: (i) if the Registration Statement was filed at the request of a
   stockholder (other than a Holder) for the purpose of registering the resale
   of securities held by such stockholder pursuant to a "demand" right then such
   allocation shall be: first, to such stockholder; and second, to the Company
   and the Holders on a pro rata basis; and (ii) except as set forth in clause
   (i), no such reduction shall reduce the amount of securities of the selling
   Holders included in the registration unless all stockholders of the Company
   exercising

                                      30.
<PAGE>

   piggyback registration rights in such registration are subject to such
   reduction. In no event will shares of any other selling stockholder of the
   Company be included in such registration that would reduce the number of
   shares that may be included by Holders without the written consent of Holders
   of not less than a majority of the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold
   in the offering. If any participating Holder disapproves of the terms of any
   such underwriting, such participating Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom
   by written notice to the Company and the underwriter, delivered at least ten
   business days prior to the effective date of the registration statement. Any
   Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be
   excluded and withdrawn from the registration. For any Holder that is a
   partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners and stockholders
   of such Holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and
   retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing
   person shall be deemed to be a single "Holder," and any pro rata reduction
   with respect to such "Holder" shall be based upon the aggregate amount of
   shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals
   included in such "Holder," as defined in this sentence.

         (c) The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any
   registration initiated by it under this Section 6.7 prior to the
   effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to
   include securities in such registration.

                                   ARTICLE VII
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      7.1 Fees and Expenses. At the Closing, the Company shall pay to SAIF an
aggregate of $75,000 for their legal fees and expenses incurred in connection
with the preparation and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. In lieu of
the foregoing payment, SAIF may retain such amount at the Closing or require the
Company, upon written notice provided to the Company prior to the Closing, to
pay such amount directly to Cooley Godward LLP. Except as expressly set forth in
the Transaction Documents to the contrary, each party shall pay the fees and
expenses of its advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and
all other expenses incurred by such party incident to the negotiation,
preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement. The Company
shall pay all Transfer Agent fees, stamp taxes and other taxes and duties levied
in connection with the issuance of the Shares.

      7.2 Entire Agreement. The Transaction Documents, together with the
Exhibits and Schedules thereto, contain the entire understanding of the parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, which the parties
acknowledge have been merged into such documents, exhibits and schedules. At or
after the Closing, and without further consideration, the Company will execute
and deliver to the Purchaser such further documents as may be reasonably
requested in order to give practical effect to the intention of the parties
under the Transaction Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, the Shares may be assigned to any Person in connection with a bona fide
margin account or other loan or financing arrangement secured by such Shares.

      7.3 Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries
required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be
deemed given and effective

is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified in this Section
prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day, (b) the next Trading

not a Trading Day or later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Trading
Day, (c) the Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S.
nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (d) upon actual receipt by

facsimile numbers for such notices and communications are those set forth on the
signature pages hereof, or such other address or facsimile number as may be
designated in writing hereafter, in the same manner, by such Person.

      7.4 Amendments; Waivers. No provision of this Agreement may be waived or
amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by
the Company and the Purchasers holding a majority of the Shares or, in the case
of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought.
No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement
of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a
waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition
or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to
exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such
right.

      7.5 Construction. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not
constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect
any of the provisions hereof. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed
to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no
rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

      7.6 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The
Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of the Purchasers. Any Purchaser may assign
its rights under this Agreement (other than the rights under Sections 4.5, 4.6
and 4.8 through 4.11) to any Person to whom such Purchaser assigns or transfers
any Shares, provided such transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect
to the transferred Shares, by the provisions hereof that apply to the
"Purchasers." Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Shares may be
assigned to any Person in connection with a bona fide margin account or other
loan or financing arrangement secured by such Shares.

      7.7 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted
assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced
by, any other Person, except that each Indemnified Party is an intended third
party beneficiary of Section 6.4 and (in each case) may enforce the provisions
of such Section directly against the parties with obligations thereunder.

      7.8 Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trail. All questions concerning
the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement
shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of
the state of New York. THE COMPANY AND PURCHASERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO
THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS SITTING IN THE
BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK FOR THE

DOCUMENTS), AND HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, AND AGREE NOT TO ASSERT IN ANY SUIT,
ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY THE COMPANY OR ANY PURCHASER, ANY CLAIM THAT IT

HEREBY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY.

      7.9 Survival. The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants
contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Shares.

      7.10 Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the
same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by
each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both
parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is
delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid and
binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is
executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page
were an original thereof.

      7.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the
remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid
and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so
agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement.

      7.12 Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the
Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election,
demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely
perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such
Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon
written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole
or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

      7.13 Replacement of Securities. If any certificate or instrument
evidencing any Shares is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall
issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon
cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate
or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable
indemnity, if requested. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument
under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs
associated with the issuance of such replacement Shares.

                                      33.

      7.14 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights
provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the
Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the
Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be
adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of
obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in
any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a
remedy at law would be adequate.

      7.15 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or
payments to any Purchaser hereunder or any Purchaser enforces or exercises its
rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of
such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged
by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company
by a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without
limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable
cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or
part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued
in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such
enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

      7.16 Adjustments in Share Numbers and Prices. In the event of any stock
split, subdivision, dividend or distribution payable in shares of Common Stock
(or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof
to receive directly or indirectly shares of Common Stock), combination or other
similar recapitalization or event occurring after the date hereof, each
reference in any Transaction Document to a number of shares or a price per share
shall be amended to appropriately account for such event.
