(a)           Investment
Purpose.  Each Buyer is acquiring the
Convertible Debentures and Warrants (as defined below) and, upon conversion of
Convertible Debentures and upon exercise of the Warrants, will acquire the
Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares then issuable, as the case may be, for its
own account for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in
connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof, except pursuant to
sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act; provided, however, that
by making the representations herein, such Buyer reserves the right to dispose
of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares at any time in accordance with or
pursuant to an effective registration statement covering such Conversion Shares
and Warrant Shares or an available exemption under the Securities Act.

(b)           Accredited
Investor Status.  Each Buyer is an “Accredited
Investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D.

(c)           Reliance
on Exemptions.  Each Buyer
understands that the Convertible Debentures and Warrants are being offered and
sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration
requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the
Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and such Buyer’s
compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments
and understandings of such Buyer set forth herein in order to determine the
availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Buyer to acquire
such securities.

(d)           Information.  Each Buyer and its advisors (and his or, its
counsel), if any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the
business, finances and operations of the Company and information he deemed
material to making an informed investment decision regarding his purchase of
the Convertible Debentures, the Conversion Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant
Shares, which have been requested by such Buyer.  Each Buyer and its advisors, if any, have been
afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company and its
management.  Neither such inquiries nor
any other due diligence investigations conducted by such Buyer or its advisors,
if any, or its representatives shall modify, amend or affect such Buyer’s right
to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in Section 3
below.  Each Buyer understands that its
investment in the Convertible Debentures, the Conversion Shares, the Warrants
and the Warrant Shares involves a high degree of risk.  Each Buyer is in a position regarding the
Company, which, based upon employment, family relationship or economic
bargaining power, enabled and enables such Buyer to obtain information from the
Company in order to evaluate the merits and risks of this investment.  Each Buyer has sought such accounting, legal
and tax advice, as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment
decision with respect to its acquisition of the Convertible Debentures, the
Conversion Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares.

(e)           No
Governmental Review.  Each Buyer
understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other
government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or
endorsement of the Convertible Debentures, the Conversion Shares, the Warrants
and the Warrant Shares, or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the
Convertible Debentures, the Conversion Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant
Shares, nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the
offering of the Convertible Debentures, the Conversion Shares, the Warrants and
the Warrant Shares.

(f)            Transfer
or Resale.  Each Buyer understands
that except as provided in the Investor Registration Rights Agreement: (i) the
Convertible Debentures and the Warrants have not been and are not being
registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may not
be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (A) subsequently
registered thereunder, or (B) such Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an
opinion of counsel, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such
securities to be sold, assigned or transferred may be sold, assigned or
transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration requirements; (ii)
any sale of such securities made in reliance on Rule 144 under the Securities
Act (or a successor rule thereto) (“Rule 144”) may be made
only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and further, if Rule 144 is not
applicable, any resale of such securities under circumstances in which the
seller (or the person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be
an underwriter (as that term is defined in the Securities Act) may require
compliance with some other exemption under the Securities Act or the rules and
regulations of the SEC thereunder; and (iii) neither the Company nor any other
person is under any obligation to register such securities under the Securities
Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of
any exemption thereunder.  The Company
reserves the right to place stop transfer instructions against the shares and
certificates for the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares.

(g)           Legends.  Each Buyer understands that the certificates
or other instruments representing the Convertible Debentures, the Conversion Shares,
the Warrants or the Warrant Shares shall bear a restrictive legend in
substantially the following form (and a stop ­transfer order may be placed
against transfer of such stock certificates):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS.  THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED
SOLELY FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES AND NOT WITH A VIEW TOWARD RESALE AND MAY NOT BE
OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE
REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, IN A
GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

The legend set forth above shall be removed and the
Company within three (3) business days shall issue a certificate without such
legend to the holder of the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares upon which it is
stamped, if, unless otherwise required by state securities laws, (i) in
connection with a sale transaction, provided the Conversion Shares or Warrant
Shares, as the case may be, are registered under the Securities Act or (ii) in
connection with a sale transaction, after such holder provides the Company with
an opinion of counsel, which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope
customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the 

 4
 

 

effect that a public sale, assignment or transfer of the
Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, may be made without
registration under the Securities Act.

(h)           Authorization,
Enforcement.  This Agreement has been
duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of such Buyer and
is a valid and binding agreement of such Buyer enforceable in accordance with
its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles
of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium,
liquidation and other similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the
enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies.

(i)            Receipt
of Documents.  Each Buyer and his or
its counsel has received and read in their entirety:  (i) this Agreement and each representation,
warranty and covenant set forth herein and the Transaction Documents; (ii) all
due diligence and other information necessary to verify the accuracy and
completeness of such representations, warranties and covenants; (iii) the

has not been furnished any other documents, literature, memorandum or
prospectus.

(j)            Due
Formation of Corporate and Other Buyers. 
If the Buyer(s) is a corporation, trust, partnership or other entity
that is not an individual person, it has been formed and validly exists and has
not been organized for the specific purpose of purchasing the Convertible
Debentures and is not prohibited from doing so.

(k)           No
Legal Advice From the Company.  Each
Buyer acknowledges, that it had the opportunity to review this Agreement and
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with his or its own legal
counsel and investment and tax advisors. 
Each Buyer is relying solely on such counsel and advisors and not on any
statements or representations of the Company or any of its representatives or
agents for legal, tax or investment advice with respect to this investment, the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the securities laws of any
jurisdiction.

(b)           Form
D.  The Company agrees to file a Form
D with respect to the Conversion Shares as required under Regulation D and to
provide a copy thereof to each Buyer promptly after such filing.  The Company shall, promptly following the
Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is
necessary to qualify the Conversion Shares, or obtain an exemption for the
Conversion Shares for sale to the Buyers at the Closing pursuant to this
Agreement under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the
United States, and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the
Buyers promptly following the Closing Date.

restriction pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act (or
successor thereto), or (ii) the date on which (A) the Buyer(s) shall have sold
all the Conversion Shares and (B) none of the Convertible Debentures are
outstanding (the “Registration Period”), the Company shall file in a
timely manner all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the
Exchange Act and the regulations of the SEC

authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock available to create the Initial
Share Reserve after considering all other commitments that may require the
issuance of Common Stock.  If the Company

the Convertible Debentures and upon exercise of the Warrants (collectively, the
“Share Reserve”).  The Company

reserved for the purpose of issuance, such number of shares of Common Stock as
shall be necessary to effect the full conversion of the Convertible Debentures
and the full exercise of the Warrants. 
If at any time the Share Reserve is insufficient to effect the full
conversion of the Convertible Debentures or the full exercise of the Warrants,
the Company shall increase the Share Reserve accordingly.  If the Company does not have sufficient
authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock available to increase the Share
Reserve, the Company shall call and hold a meeting of the stockholders within
seventy five (75) days of such occurrence (or within one hundred twenty (120)
days of such occurrence if the SEC initiates a review of any proxy statement
filed by the Company in connection with such meeting), for the purpose of
increasing the number of shares authorized. 
The Company’s management shall recommend to the stockholders to vote in
favor of increasing the number of shares of Common Stock authorized.  Management shall also vote all of its shares
in favor of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock.

the same Primary Market upon which the shares of Common Stock are then listed
or quoted.

Existence.  So long as any of the Convertible
Debentures remain outstanding, the Company shall not directly or indirectly
consummate any merger, reorganization, restructuring, reverse stock split
consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or any
similar transaction or related transactions (each such transaction, an “Organizational
Change”) unless, in any such case, the Company makes appropriate provision
with respect to such holders’ rights and interests to insure that the
provisions of this Section 4(h) will thereafter be applicable to the
Convertible Debentures.

(i)            Transactions
With Affiliates.  So long as any
Convertible Debentures are outstanding, the Company shall not, and shall cause

disinterested directors of the Company; for purposes hereof, any director who
is also an officer of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company shall not be

purposes hereof means, with respect to any person or entity, another person or

agrees that, in the event that the Company’s agency relationship with the
transfer agent should be terminated for any reason prior to a date which is two

immediately preceding sentence, the Company may, without consent, issue or sell
for any consideration it deems appropriate (A) in any three (3) month period,
up to 250,000 shares of Common Stock (including shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion, exercise, or exchange of Options granted in such three (3)

purpose.

(l)            Neither
the Buyer(s) nor any of its affiliates have, or has had within the 60 days

AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.

(a)           The Company shall
issue the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions to its transfer agent
irrevocably appointing, subject to Section 5(b) of this Agreement, David
Gonzalez, Esq. as the Company’s agent for purposes of having certificates to be
issued, registered in the name of the Buyer(s) or its respective nominee(s),
for the Conversion Shares representing such amounts of Convertible Debentures
as specified from time to time by the Buyer(s) to the Company upon conversion
of the Convertible Debentures, for interest owed pursuant to the Convertible
Debenture, and for any and all Liquidated Damages (as this term is defined in the
Investor Registration Rights Agreement). 
The Company shall not change its transfer agent without the express
written consent of the Buyer(s), which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, delayed or conditioned.  Prior
to registration of the Conversion Shares under the Securities Act, all such
certificates shall bear the restrictive legend specified in Section 2(g) of
this Agreement.  The Company warrants
that no instruction other than the Irrevocable

 15
 

 

Transfer Agent
Instructions referred to in this Section 5, and stop transfer instructions to
give effect to Section 2(g) hereof (in the case of the Conversion Shares prior
to registration of such shares under the Securities Act) will be given by the
Company to its transfer agent and that the Conversion Shares shall otherwise be
freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the
extent provided in this Agreement and the Investor Registration Rights
Agreement.  Nothing in this Section 5
shall affect in any way the Buyer’s obligations and agreement to comply with
all applicable securities laws upon resale of Conversion Shares.  If the Buyer(s) provides the Company with an
opinion of counsel, in form, scope and substance customary for opinions of
counsel in comparable transactions to the effect that registration of a resale

Securities Act, the Company shall within two (2) business days instruct its
transfer agent to issue one or more certificates in such name and in such
denominations as specified by the Buyer. 
The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations
hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Buyer by vitiating the intent and
purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. 
Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a
breach of its obligations under this Section 5 will be inadequate and agrees,
in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions
of this Section 5, that the Buyer(s) shall be entitled, in addition to all
other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach and requiring
immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss
and without any bond or other security being required.

and continuation of an Event of Default (as defined in the Convertible
Debentures), the Buyer(s) shall provide written notice (the “Notice of
Appointment”) to the Company that an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and upon delivery of the Notice of Appointment David Gonzalez, Esq.

the purposes enumerated in the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions and
authorized to act in accordance therewith.

WorldGate
Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby
certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Cornell
Capital Partners, LP (the “Holder”), the registered holder
hereof or its permitted assigns, is entitled, subject to the terms set forth
below, to purchase from the Company upon surrender of this Warrant, at any time
or times on or after the date hereof, but not after 11:59 P.M. Eastern
Time on the Expiration Date (as defined herein) [             ] fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock (as defined herein) of the Company (the “Warrant
Shares”) at the exercise price per share provided in Section 1(b)
below or as subsequently adjusted; provided, however, that in no event shall
the Holder be entitled to exercise this Warrant for a number of Warrant Shares
in excess of that number of Warrant Shares which, upon giving effect to such
exercise, would cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates to exceed 4.99% of the
outstanding shares of the Common Stock following such exercise, except within
sixty (60) days of the Expiration Date (however, such restriction may be waived
by Holder (but only as to itself and not to any other holder) upon not less
than 65 days prior notice to the Company). 
For purposes of the foregoing proviso, the aggregate number of shares of
Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates shall include
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
with respect to which the determination of such proviso is being made, but
shall exclude

 4
 

 

 

shares of Common Stock
which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, unexercised
Warrants beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates and
(ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of
any other securities of the Company beneficially owned by the Holder and its
affiliates (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or preferred
stock) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the
limitation contained herein.  Except as
set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this paragraph, beneficial
ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. 
For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares
of Common Stock as reflected in (1) the Company’s most recent Form 10-Q or Form
10-K, as the case may be, (2) a more recent public announcement by the Company
or (3) any other notice by the Company or its transfer agent setting forth the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. 
Upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall promptly, but
in no event later than one (1) Business Day following the receipt of such
notice, confirm in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock
then outstanding.  In any case, the
number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving
effect to the exercise of Warrants (as defined below) by the Holder and its
affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of
Common Stock was reported.

at any time on any Business Day on or after the opening of business on such
Business Day, commencing with the first day after the date hereof, and prior to
11:59 P.M. Eastern Time on the Expiration Date (i) by delivery of a
written notice, in the form of the subscription notice attached as Exhibit A
hereto (the “Exercise Notice”), of such holder’s election to exercise
this Warrant, which notice shall specify the number of Warrant Shares to be
purchased, payment to the Company of an amount equal to the Warrant
Exercise Price(s) applicable to the Warrant Shares being purchased multiplied
by the number of Warrant Shares (at the applicable Warrant Exercise Price)
as to which this Warrant is being exercised (plus any applicable issue or
transfer taxes) (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash or wire
transfer of immediately available funds and the surrender of this Warrant (or
an indemnification undertaking with respect to this Warrant in the case of its
loss, theft or destruction) to a common carrier for overnight delivery to the
Company as soon as practicable following such date (“Cash Basis”) or

Notice, the Aggregate Exercise Price and this Warrant (or an indemnification
undertaking with respect to this Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or
destruction) and the receipt of the representations of the Holder specified in
Section 6 hereof, if requested by the Company (the “Exercise Delivery
Documents”), and if the Common Stock is DTC eligible, credit such aggregate
number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled to the
Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company;
provided, however, if the Holder who submitted the Exercise Notice requested
physical delivery of any or all of the Warrant Shares, or, if the Common Stock
is not DTC eligible then the Company shall, on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day following
receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents, issue and surrender to a common
carrier for overnight delivery to the address specified in the Exercise Notice,
a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder, for the number of shares
of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such
request.  Upon delivery of the Exercise
Notice and Aggregate Exercise Price referred to in clause (i) or (ii)
above, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the
holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has
been exercised.  In the case of a dispute
as to the determination of the Warrant Exercise Price, the Volume Weighted
Average Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company
shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that is not
disputed and shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic
calculations to the Holder via facsimile within three (3) Business Days of
receipt of the Holder’s Exercise Notice.

If the Holder
and the Company are unable to agree upon the determination of the Warrant
Exercise Price or arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares within one (1)
day of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to
the Holder, then the Company shall immediately submit via facsimile (i) the
disputed determination of the Warrant Exercise Price or the Volume Weighted
Average Price to an independent, reputable investment banking firm or (ii) the
disputed arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares to its independent,
outside accountant.  The Company shall
cause the investment banking firm or the accountant, as the case may be, to perform
the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the Holder of the
results no later than forty-eight (48) hours from the time it receives the
disputed determinations or calculations. 
Such investment banking firm’s or accountant’s determination or
calculation, as the case may be, shall be deemed conclusive absent manifest
error.

Unless the
rights represented by this Warrant shall have expired or shall have been fully
exercised, the Company shall, as soon as practicable and in no event later than
five (5) Business Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue a new
Warrant identical in all respects to this Warrant exercised except it shall
represent rights to purchase the number of

 8
 

 

 

Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior
to such exercise under this Warrant exercised, less the number of Warrant
Shares with respect to which such Warrant is exercised.

No fractional
Warrant Shares are to be issued upon any pro rata exercise of this Warrant, but
rather the number of Warrant Shares issued upon such exercise of this Warrant
shall be rounded up or down to the nearest whole number.

If the Company
or its Transfer Agent shall fail for any reason or for no reason to issue to
the Holder within ten (10) days of receipt of the Exercise Delivery
Documents, a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder
is entitled or to credit the Holder’s balance account with The Depository Trust
Company for such number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon
the Holder’s exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall, in addition to any
other remedies under this Warrant or otherwise available to the Holder, pay as
additional damages in cash to the Holder on each day the issuance of such
certificate for Warrant Shares is not timely effected an amount equal to 0.025%
of the product of (A) the sum of the number of Warrant Shares not issued to the
Holder on a timely basis and to which the Holder is entitled, and (B) the
Volume Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock for the trading day
immediately preceding the last possible date which the Company could have
issued such Common Stock to the Holder without violating this Section 2.

If within ten
(10) days after the Company’s receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents, the
Company fails to deliver a new Warrant to the Holder for the number of Warrant
Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2 hereof, then, in
addition to any other available remedies under this Warrant, or otherwise
available to the Holder, the Company shall pay as additional damages in cash to
the Holder on each day after such tenth (10th) day that such delivery of such new
Warrant is not timely effected in an amount equal to 0.015% of the product of (A) the number of Warrant Shares
represented by the portion of this Warrant which is not being exercised and
(B) the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock for the trading
day immediately preceding the last possible date which the Company could have
issued such Warrant to the Holder without violating this Section 2.

Covenants as to Common Stock.  The Company hereby covenants and agrees as
follows:

This Warrant
is, and any Warrants issued in substitution for or replacement of this Warrant
will upon issuance be, duly authorized and validly issued.

All Warrant
Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this
Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable
and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.

During the
period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised,
the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved at least one hundred
percent (100%) of the number of shares of Common Stock needed to provide for
the exercise of the rights then represented by this Warrant and the par value
of said shares will at all times be less than or equal to the applicable
Warrant Exercise Price.  If at any time
the Company does not have a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized
and available, then the

 9
 

 

 

Company shall call and hold a meeting of its
stockholders within one hundred twenty (120) days of that time for the
purpose of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock.

The Company
will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization,
transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of
securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the
observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed by it
hereunder, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of
all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may
reasonably be requested by the Holder in order to protect the exercise
privilege of the Holder against dilution or other impairment, consistent with
the tenor and purpose of this Warrant. 
The Company will not increase the par value of any shares of Common
Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Warrant Exercise
Price then in effect, and (ii) will take all such actions as may be
necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally
issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of
this Warrant.

This Warrant
will be binding upon any entity succeeding to the Company by merger,
consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of the Company’s
assets.

Taxes. 
The Company shall pay any and all taxes, except any applicable
withholding, which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of
Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant.

Warrant Holder Not Deemed a Stockholder.  Except as otherwise specifically provided
herein, no holder, as such, of this Warrant shall be entitled to vote or
receive dividends or be deemed the holder of shares of capital stock of the
Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be
construed to confer upon the holder hereof, as such, any of the rights of a
stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to
any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock,
reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise),
receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or
otherwise, prior to the issuance to the holder of this Warrant of the Warrant
Shares which he or she is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of
this Warrant.  In addition, nothing
contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on
such holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or
otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are
asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.  Notwithstanding this Section 5, the Company
will provide the holder of this Warrant with copies of the same notices and
other information given to the stockholders of the Company generally,
contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the stockholders.

Representations of Holder.  The Holder, by the acceptance hereof,
represents that it is acquiring this Warrant and the Warrant Shares for its own
account for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in
connection with, the public sale or distribution of this Warrant or the Warrant
Shares, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities
Act; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, the Holder
does not agree to hold this Warrant or any of the Warrant Shares for any
minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of this Warrant
and the Warrant Shares at any time in accordance with or pursuant to a
registration statement or an exemption under the Securities Act.

 

 10

 

The Holder
further represents, by acceptance hereof, that, as of this date, the Holder is
an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)(1) of
Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the
Securities Act (an “Accredited Investor”).  Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder
shall, if requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a form satisfactory
to the Company, that the Warrant Shares so purchased are being acquired solely
for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party, for
investment, and not with a view toward distribution or resale and that the
Holder is an Accredited Investor.  If the
Holder cannot make such representations because they would be factually
incorrect, it shall be a condition to the Holder’s exercise of this Warrant
that the Company receive such other representations as the Company considers
reasonably necessary to assure the Company that the issuance of its securities
upon exercise of this Warrant shall not violate any United States or state
securities laws.

Ownership and Transfer.

The Company
shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or
agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the holder hereof), a
register for this Warrant, in which the Company shall record the name and
address of the person in whose name this Warrant has been issued, as well as
the name and address of each transferee. 
The Company may treat the person in whose name any Warrant is registered
on the register as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes,
notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, but in all events recognizing any
transfers made in accordance with the terms of this Warrant.

Adjustment of Warrant Exercise Price and Number of Shares.  The Warrant Exercise Price and the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted
from time to time as follows:

Adjustment of
Warrant Exercise Price and Number of Shares upon Issuance of Common Stock.  If and whenever on or after the Issuance Date
of this Warrant, the Company issues or sells, or is deemed to have issued or
sold, any shares of Common Stock (other than Excluded Securities) for a
consideration per share less than a price (the “Applicable Price”) equal
to the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or
sale (a “Dilutive Issuance”), then, effective immediately upon the
Dilutive Issuance, the Warrant Exercise Price shall be adjusted so as to equal
an amount determined by multiplying such Warrant Exercise Price by the
following fraction:

	
  

  	
   

  	
  N0 + N1

  	
   

  	
   

  
	
   

  	
   

  	
  N0 + N2

  	
   

  	
   

  
	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  

 

where:

	
  

  	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  
	
  

  	
   

  	
  N0 =

  	
   

  	
  the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
  immediately prior to the issuance or sale, or deemed issuance or sale, of
  such additional shares of Common Stock in such Dilutive Issuance (without
  taking into account any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion,
  exchange or exercise of any securities or other instruments which are
  convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock (“Convertible
  Securities”) or options, warrants or other rights to purchase or
  subscribe for Common Stock or Convertible Securities, other than shares of
  Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Debentures or
  exercise of the Warrants, which shall be taken into account in determining
  such number;

  

 

 11
 

 

 

	
  

  	
   

  	
  N1 =

  	
   

  	
  the number of shares of Common Stock which the
  aggregate consideration, if any, received or receivable by the Company for
  the total number of such additional shares of Common Stock so issued, sold or
  deemed issued or sold in such Dilutive Issuance would purchase at the Warrant
  Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance; and

  
	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  	
   

  
	
   

  	
   

  	
  N2 =

  	
   

  	
  the number of such additional shares of Common Stock
  so issued, sold or deemed issued or sold in such Dilutive Issuance.

  

 

Upon each such adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price hereunder, the
number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be
adjusted to the number of shares determined by multiplying the Warrant Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant
Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such
adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Warrant Exercise Price
resulting from such adjustment.

Effect on
Warrant Exercise Price of Certain Events.  For purposes of determining the adjusted
Warrant Exercise Price under Section 8(a) above, the following shall be
applicable:

Issuance of Options.  If, after the date hereof, the Company in any
manner grants any Options (other than pursuant to an Approved Stock Plan) and
the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon
the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion or exchange of any
convertible securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option is less than
the Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be
outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the
granting or sale of such Option for such price per share.  For purposes of this Section 8(b)(i), the
lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon
exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible
Securities shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if
any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one share of
Common Stock upon the granting or sale of the Option, upon exercise of the
Option or upon conversion or exchange of any convertible security issuable upon
exercise of such Option.  No further
adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance
of such Common Stock or of such convertible securities upon the exercise of
such Options or upon the actual issuance of such Common Stock upon conversion
or exchange of such convertible securities.

Issuance of Convertible Securities.  If the Company in any manner issues or sells
any convertible securities (other than Excluded Securities) and the lowest
price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the
conversion or exchange thereof is

 12
 

 

less than the
Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be
outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the
issuance or sale of such convertible securities for such price per share.  For the purposes of this
Section 8(b)(ii), the lowest price per share for which one share of Common
Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange shall be equal to the sum of
the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the
Company with respect to one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of
the convertible security and upon conversion or exchange of such convertible
security.  No further adjustment of the
Warrant Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common
Stock upon conversion or exchange of such convertible securities, and if any such
issue or sale of such convertible securities is made upon exercise of any
Options for which adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price had been or are to
be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 8(b), no further
adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price shall be made by reason of such issue
or sale.

Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion.  If the purchase price provided for in any
Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue,
conversion or exchange of any convertible securities, or the rate at which any
convertible securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock
(other than with respect to Excluded Securities) changes at any time, the
Warrant Exercise Price in effect at the time of such change shall be adjusted
to the Warrant Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time had
such Options or convertible securities provided for such changed purchase
price, additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be,
at the time initially granted, issued or sold and the number of Warrant Shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be correspondingly
readjusted.  For purposes of this Section
8(b)(iii), if the terms of any Option or convertible security that was
outstanding as of the Issuance Date of this Warrant are changed in the manner
described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or
convertible security and the Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise,
conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the
date of such change.  No adjustment
pursuant to this Section 8(b) shall be made if such adjustment would
result in an increase of the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect.

Calculation of Consideration Received.  If any Common Stock, Options or convertible
securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash,
the consideration received therefore will be deemed to be the net amount
received by the Company therefore.  If
any Common Stock, Options or convertible securities are issued or sold for a
consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the
Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such
consideration consists of marketable securities, in which case the amount of
consideration received by the Company will be the market price of such
securities on the date of receipt of such securities.  If any Common Stock, Options or convertible
securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection
with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of
consideration therefore will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of
the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to
such Common Stock, Options or convertible securities, as the case may be.  The fair value of any consideration other
than cash or securities will be determined jointly by the Company and the
holders of Warrants representing at least two-thirds of the Warrant Shares
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants then outstanding.  If such parties are unable to reach agreement
within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an

 13
 

 

event
requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair value of such
consideration will be determined within five (5) Business Days after the
tenth (10th)
day following the Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser
jointly selected by the Company and the holders of Warrants representing at
least two-thirds of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants
then outstanding.  The determination of
such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties and the fees and
expenses of such appraiser shall be borne jointly by the Company and the holders
of Warrants.

Integrated Transactions.  In case any Option is issued in connection
with the issue or sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising
one integrated transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to
such Options by the parties thereto, the Options will be deemed to have been
issued for a consideration of $.01.

Treasury Shares.  The number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding at any given time does not include shares owned or held by or for
the account of the Company, and the disposition of any shares so owned or held
will be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.

Record Date. 
If the Company takes a record of the holders of Common Stock for the
purpose of entitling them (1) to receive a dividend or other distribution
payable in Common Stock, Options or in convertible securities or (2) to
subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, Options or convertible securities, then
such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the
shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration
of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the
granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.

Adjustment of
Warrant Exercise Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock.  If the Company at any time after the date of
issuance of this Warrant subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a greater number of shares, any Warrant Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced
and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this
Warrant will be proportionately increased. 
If the Company at any time after the date of issuance of this Warrant
combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes
of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, any
Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be
proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant will be proportionately decreased.  Any adjustment under this Section 8(c)
shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or
combination becomes effective.

Distribution
of Assets.  If
the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its
assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Stock, by way of
return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution
of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend,
spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement or other similar
transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this
Warrant, then, in each such case:

 14
 

 

any Warrant
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the
record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to
receive the Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of the close of
business on such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Warrant
Exercise Price by a fraction of which (A) the numerator shall be the Closing
Sale Price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding such
record date minus the value of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by
the Company’s Board of Directors) applicable to one share of Common Stock, and
(B) the denominator shall be the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the
trading day immediately preceding such record date; and

in the event
that the Distribution is of common stock of a company whose common stock is
traded on a national securities exchange or a national automated quotation
system, then the holder of this Warrant shall receive an additional warrant to
purchase Common Stock, the terms of which shall be identical to those of this
Warrant, except that such warrant shall be exercisable into the amount of the
assets that would have been payable to the holder of this Warrant pursuant to
the Distribution had the holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to
such record date and with an exercise price equal to the amount by which the
exercise price of this Warrant was decreased with respect to the Distribution
pursuant to the terms of the immediately preceding clause (i).

Certain Events.  If any event occurs of the type contemplated
by the provisions of this Section 8 but not expressly provided for by such
provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation
rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), other than
pursuant to an Approved Plan, then the Company’s Board of Directors will make
an appropriate adjustment in the Warrant Exercise Price and the number of
shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant so as to
protect the rights of the holders of the Warrants; provided, except as set
forth in section 8(c).

Notices.

Promptly upon
any adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price, the Company will give written
notice thereof to the holder of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable
detail, and certifying, the calculation of such adjustment.

The Company
will give written notice to the holder of this Warrant at least ten (10) days
prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a record
(A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the Common Stock,
(B) with respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of Common
Stock or (C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Organic
Change (as defined below), dissolution or liquidation, provided that such
information shall be made known to the public prior to or in conjunction with
such notice being provided to such holder.

The Company
will also give written notice to the holder of this Warrant at least ten (10)
days prior to the date on which any Organic Change, dissolution or liquidation
will take place, provided that such information shall be made known to the
public prior to or in conjunction with such notice being provided to such holder.

 15
 

 

(g)           Share Limitation.  Notwithstanding the above provisions of this
Section 8, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant shall in no event be increased to an amount such that the total number
of shares issuable under the transactions contemplated by the Securities
Purchase Agreement exceed 19.99% of the outstanding shares of Common  Stock as of the date of Securities Purchase
Agreement, until the Company’s shareholders approve (without the vote of any
shares acquired in this transaction and related transactions) the issuance of
the  shares issuable under the
transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement.

Purchase Rights; Reorganization,
Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.

In addition to
any adjustments pursuant to Section 8 above, if at any time the Company grants,
issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase
stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of
any class of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the holder of
this Warrant will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such
Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which such holder could have
acquired if such holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock
acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant immediately before the date
on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase
Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders
of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such
Purchase Rights.

Any
recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale
of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another Person or other
transaction in each case which is effected in such a way that holders of Common
Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation)
stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock is
referred to herein as an “Organic Change.”  Prior to the consummation of any (i) sale of
all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to an acquiring Person or (ii)
other Organic Change following which the Company is not a surviving entity, the
Company will secure from the Person purchasing such assets or the successor
resulting from such Organic Change (in each case, the “Acquiring Entity”)
a written agreement (in form and substance satisfactory to the holders of
Warrants representing at least two-thirds of the Warrant Shares issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants then outstanding) to deliver to each holder of
Warrants in exchange for such Warrants, a security of the Acquiring Entity
evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance
to this Warrant and satisfactory to the holders of the Warrants (including an
adjusted warrant exercise price equal to the value for the Common Stock
reflected by the terms of such consolidation, merger or sale, and exercisable
for a corresponding number of shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable
upon exercise of the Warrants without regard to any limitations on exercise, if
the value so reflected is less than any Applicable Warrant Exercise Price
immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or sale).  Prior to the consummation of any other
Organic Change, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and
substance satisfactory to the holders of Warrants representing a majority of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants then outstanding) to insure that each of the holders of the Warrants
will thereafter have the right to acquire and receive in lieu of or in addition
to (as the case may be) the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable and
receivable upon the exercise of such holder’s Warrants (without regard to
any limitations on exercise), such shares of stock, securities or assets that
would have been issued or payable in such Organic Change with

 16
 

 

respect to or
in exchange for the number of Warrant Shares which would have been issuable and
receivable upon the exercise of such holder’s Warrant as of the date of such
Organic Change (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on
the exercisability of this Warrant).

Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Warrant.  If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or
destroyed, the Company shall promptly, on receipt of an indemnification
undertaking (or, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, the Warrant), issue a new
Warrant of like denomination and tenor as this Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated
or destroyed.

Notice.  Any notices, consents, waivers or other
communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this
Warrant must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered:  (i) upon receipt, when delivered
personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided
confirmation of receipt is received by the sending party transmission is
mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending
party); or (iii) one Business Day after deposit with a nationally
recognized overnight delivery service, in each case properly addressed to the
party to receive the same.  The addresses
and facsimile numbers for such communications shall be:

INVESTOR REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
(this “Agreement”), dated as of August 11, 2006, by and among WORLDGATE COMMUNICATIONS, INC., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), and the undersigned investors listed
on Schedule I attached hereto (each, an “Investor” and
collectively, the “Investors”).

WHEREAS:

A.            In
connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement by and among the parties
hereto of even date herewith (the “Securities
Purchase Agreement”), the Company has agreed, upon the terms and subject to
the conditions of the Securities Purchase Agreement, to issue and sell to the
Investors secured convertible debentures (the “Convertible Debentures”)
which shall be convertible into that number of shares of the Company’s common
stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), pursuant to the
terms of the Securities Purchase 
Agreement for an aggregate purchase price of up to Eleven Million
Dollars ($11,000,000).  Capitalized terms
not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Securities
Purchase Agreement.

B.            To
induce the Investors to execute and deliver the Securities Purchase Agreement,
the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder,
or any similar successor statute (collectively, the “Securities Act”),
and applicable state securities laws.

NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein and other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Investors hereby agree as follows:

1.             DEFINITIONS.

As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall
have the following meanings:

(a)           “Person”
means a corporation, a limited liability company, an association, a
partnership, an organization, a business, an individual, a governmental or
political subdivision thereof or a governmental agency.

(b)           “Register,” “registered,”
and “registration” refer to a registration effected by preparing and
filing one or more Registration Statements (as defined below) in compliance
with the Securities Act and pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or
any successor rule providing for offering securities on a continuous or delayed
basis (“Rule 415”), and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of
such Registration Statement(s) by the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”).

(c)           “Registrable
Securities” means the shares of Common Stock issuable to the Investors upon
conversion of the Convertible Debentures pursuant to the terms thereof, the
Warrant Shares (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), and the
Commitment Shares (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement).

 

(d)           “Registration
Statement” means a registration statement under the Securities Act which
covers the Registrable Securities.

2.             REGISTRATION.

(a)           Subject to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file, no later
than forty-five (45) days from the date hereof (the “Scheduled Filing
Deadline”), with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-1 or SB-2 (or,
if the Company is then eligible, on Form S-3) under the Securities Act (the “Initial
Registration Statement”) for the resale by the Investors of the Registrable
Securities, which includes at least all shares listed on Schedule II attached
hereto.  Prior to the filing of the
Registration Statement with the SEC, the Company shall furnish a copy of the
Initial Registration Statement to the Investors for their review and
comment.  The Investors shall furnish
comments on the Initial Registration Statement to the Company within
twenty-four (24) hours of the receipt thereof from the Company.

(b)           Effectiveness of
the Initial Registration Statement. 
The Company shall use its best efforts (i) to have the Initial
Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC no later than one hundred
twenty (120) days from the date hereof (the “Scheduled Effective Deadline”)
and (ii) to insure that the Initial Registration Statement and any subsequent
Registration Statement remains in effect until all of the Registrable
Securities have been sold or until they become eligible for sale pursuant to
Rule 144(k), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(c)           Failure to File
or Obtain Effectiveness of the Registration Statement.  In the event the Registration Statement is
not filed by the Scheduled Filing Deadline or is not declared effective by the
SEC on or before the Scheduled Effective Date, or if after the Registration
Statement has been declared effective by the SEC, sales cannot be made pursuant
to the Registration Statement (whether because of a failure to keep the
Registration Statement effective, failure to disclose such information as is
necessary for sales to be made pursuant to the Registration Statement, failure
to register sufficient shares of Common Stock or otherwise) then as partial
relief for the damages to any holder of Registrable Securities by reason of any
such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the underlying shares of
Common Stock (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies at law
or in equity), the Company will pay as liquidated damages (the “Liquidated
Damages”) to the holder, at the holder’s option, either a cash amount or
shares of the Company’s Common Stock within three (3) business days, after
demand therefore, equal to one percent (1%) of the liquidated value of the
Convertible Debentures outstanding as Liquidated Damages for each thirty (30)
day period after the Scheduled Filing Deadline or the Scheduled Effective Date
as the case may be.  Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall Liquidated Damages exceed
twelve percent (12%) of the aggregate Purchase Price for all Investors.

(d)           Liquidated
Damages.  The Company and the
Investor hereto acknowledge and agree that the sums payable under subsection
2(c) above shall constitute liquidated damages and not penalties and are in
addition to all other rights of the Investor, including the right to call a
default.  The parties further acknowledge
that (i) the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred is incapable or is
difficult to precisely estimate, (ii) the amounts specified in such subsections
bear a reasonable relationship to, and are not plainly or grossly
disproportionate to,

 2
 

the probable
loss likely to be incurred in connection with any failure by the Company to
obtain or maintain the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, (iii) one of
the reasons for the Company and the Investor reaching an agreement as to such
amounts was the uncertainty and cost of litigation regarding the question of
actual damages, and (iv) the Company and the Investor are sophisticated
business parties and have been represented by sophisticated and able legal
counsel and negotiated this Agreement at arm’s length.

3.             RELATED
OBLIGATIONS.

(a)           The Company shall
keep the Registration Statement effective pursuant to Rule 415 at all
times until the date on which the Investor shall have sold all the Registrable
Securities covered by such Registration Statement or until they become eligible
for sale pursuant to Rule 144(k) (the “Registration Period”), which
Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and
prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any 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 light of the circumstances in
which they were made, not misleading.

(b)           The Company shall
prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective
amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and the prospectus used
in connection with such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed
pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, as may be necessary
to keep such Registration Statement effective at all times during the
Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the
Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of
the Company covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of
such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the
intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth
in such Registration Statement.  In the
case of amendments and supplements to a Registration Statement which are
required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to this
Section 3(b)) by reason of the Company’s filing a report on Form 10-K, Form
10-Q or Form 8-K or any analogous report under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company shall incorporate
such report by reference into the Registration Statement, if applicable, or
shall file such amendments or supplements with the SEC on the same day on which
the Exchange Act report is filed which created the requirement for the Company
to amend or supplement the Registration Statement.

(c)           The Company shall
furnish to each Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in any
Registration Statement, upon request and without charge, (i) at least one (1)
copy of such Registration Statement as declared effective by the SEC and any
amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all
documents incorporated therein by reference, all exhibits and each preliminary
prospectus, (ii) ten (10) copies of the final prospectus included in such
Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other
number of copies as such Investor may reasonably request) and (iii) such other
documents as such Investor may reasonably request from time to time in order to
facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such
Investor.

 3
 

(d)           The Company shall use its best
efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by a
Registration Statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such
jurisdictions in the United States as any Investor reasonably requests, (ii) prepare
and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective
amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be
necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period,
(iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such
registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration
Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to
qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a
condition thereto to (w) make any change to its certificate of incorporation or
by-laws, (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not
otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(d), (y) subject itself
to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to
service of process in any such jurisdiction. 
The Company shall promptly notify each Investor who holds Registrable
Securities of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to
the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable
Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction
in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or
threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

(e)           As promptly as practicable after
becoming aware of such event or development, the Company shall notify each
Investor in writing of the happening of any event as a result of which the
prospectus included in a Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an
untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided
that in no event shall such notice contain any material, nonpublic
information), and promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration
Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and, upon the request
of an Investor, deliver ten (10) copies of such supplement or amendment to such
Investor.  The Company shall also
promptly notify each Investor in writing (i) when a prospectus or any
prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when a
Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective
(notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to each Investor by
facsimile on the same day of such effectiveness), (ii) of any request by the
SEC for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related
prospectus or related information, and (iii) of the Company’s reasonable
determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would
be appropriate.

(f)            The Company shall use its best
efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of
effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or the suspension of the
qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction
within the United States of America and, if such an order or suspension is
issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest
possible moment and to notify each Investor who holds Registrable Securities
being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its
receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such
purpose.

(g)           The Company shall make available for
inspection by (i) any Investor and (ii) one (1) firm of accountants or
other agents retained by the Investors (collectively, the “Inspectors”)
all pertinent financial and other records, and pertinent corporate documents
and

 4
 

properties of the Company (collectively, the “Records”),
as shall be reasonably deemed necessary by each Inspector, and cause the
Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information which any
Inspector may reasonably request; provided, however, that each Inspector shall
agree, and each Investor hereby agrees, to hold in strict confidence and shall
not make any disclosure (except to an Investor) or use  any Record or other information which the
Company determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which determination
the Inspectors are so notified, unless (a) the disclosure of such Records is
necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration
Statement or is otherwise required under the Securities Act, (b) the release of
such Records is ordered pursuant to a final, non-appealable subpoena or order
from a court or government body of competent jurisdiction, or (c) the
information in such Records has been made generally available to the public
other than by disclosure in violation of this or any other agreement of which
the Inspector and the Investor has knowledge. 
Each Investor agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of
such Records is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent
jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and
allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent
disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the Records deemed
confidential.

(h)           The Company shall hold in confidence
and not make any disclosure of information concerning an Investor provided to
the Company unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply
with federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information
is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration
Statement, (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a
subpoena or other final, non-appealable order from a court or governmental body
of competent jurisdiction, or (iv) such information has been made generally
available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement
or any other agreement.  The Company
agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information
concerning an Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of
competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt written notice to
such Investor and allow such Investor, at the Investor’s expense, to undertake
appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order
for, such information.

(i)            The Company shall use its best
efforts either to cause all the Registrable Securities covered by a
Registration Statement to be (i) listed on each securities exchange on which
securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed,
if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under
the rules of such exchange, or (ii) included for quotation on the Nasdaq
National Market, Nasdaq Capital Market, or Nasdaq OTC Bulletin Board.  The Company shall pay all fees and expenses
in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section 3(i).

(j)            The Company shall cooperate with the
Investors who hold Registrable Securities being offered and, to the extent
applicable, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates
(not bearing any restrictive legend, provided that the Investors have provided
an undertaking that (i) they will only sell such Registrable Securities
pursuant to an effective registration statement for such securities under the
Securities Act and (ii) they will comply with all applicable prospectus
delivery requirements) representing the Registrable Securities to be offered
pursuant to a Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in 

 5
 

such denominations or amounts, as the case
may be, as the Investors may reasonably request and registered in such names as
the Investors may request.

(k)           The Company shall
use its best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by the
applicable Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such
other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to consummate
the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

(l)            The Company shall
make generally available to its security holders, as soon as practical, an
earnings statement (in form complying with the provisions of Rule 158 under the
Securities Act) covering a twelve (12) month period beginning not later than
the first day of the Company’s fiscal year next following the effective date of
the Registration Statement.

(m)          The Company shall
otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and
regulations of the SEC in connection with any registration hereunder.

(n)           Within two (2)
business days after a Registration Statement which covers Registrable
Securities is declared effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver, and
shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for
such Registrable Securities (with copies to the Investors whose Registrable
Securities are included in such Registration Statement) confirmation that such
Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(o)           The Company shall
take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate
disposition by the Investors of Registrable Securities pursuant to a
Registration Statement.

(p)           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, at any time after the Effective Date, the
Company may delay the disclosure of material, non-public information concerning
the Company the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith
opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company (following consultation with
its counsel), in the best interest of the Company (a “Grace Period”); provided, that
the Company shall promptly (i) notify the Investors in writing that such
determination has been made (provided that in each notice the Company will not
disclose the content of such material, non-public information to the Investors)
and the date on which the Grace Period will begin, and (ii) notify the
Investors in writing of the date on which the Grace Period ends; and, provided
further, that during any three hundred sixty five (365) day period such Grace
Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of twenty (20) days and the first day of
any Grace Period must be at ten (10) trading days after the last day of any
prior Grace Period (each, an “Allowable
Grace Period”).  For purposes
of determining the length of a Grace Period above, the Grace Period shall begin
on and include the date the Investors receive the notice referred to in clause
(i) and shall end on and include the later of the date the Investors receive
the notice referred to in clause (ii) and the date referred to in such
notice.  Upon expiration of the Grace
Period, the Company shall again be bound by the first sentence of Section 3(e)
with respect to the information giving rise thereto unless such material,
non-public information is no longer applicable. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall cause its transfer
agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a transferee of an
Investor in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement in
connection with

 6
 

any sale of
Registrable Securities with respect to which an Investor has entered into a
contract for sale and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part of
the applicable Registration Statement (unless an exemption from such prospectus
delivery requirement exists) prior to the Investor’s receipt of the notice of a
Grace Period and for which the Investor has not yet settled.

4.             OBLIGATIONS OF
THE INVESTORS.

Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice
from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section
3(f) or the first sentence of 3(e), such Investor will immediately discontinue
disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement(s)
covering such Registrable Securities until such Investor’s receipt of the
copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(e)
or receipt of notice that no supplement or amendment is required.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the
Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended certificates for
shares of Common Stock to a transferee of an Investor in accordance with the
terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement in connection with any sale of
Registrable Securities with respect to which an Investor has entered into a
contract for sale prior to the Investor’s receipt of a notice from the Company
of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(f) or the
first sentence of 3(e) and for which the Investor has not yet settled; provided
that such Investor has provided an undertaking that (i) it has sold such
Registrable Securities only pursuant to an effective registration statement for
such securities under the Securities Act and (ii) it has complied, and will
comply, with all applicable prospectus delivery requirements.

5.             EXPENSES OF
REGISTRATION.

All expenses incurred by the Company in connection
with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3,
including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualifications
fees, printers, legal and accounting fees shall be paid by the Company.

6.             INDEMNIFICATION.

With respect to Registrable Securities which are
included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:

(a)           To the fullest
extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold
harmless and defend each Investor, the directors, officers, partners,
employees, agents, representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls
any Investor within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act
(each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any losses, claims, damages,
liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, reasonable attorneys’
fees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several (collectively, “Claims”)
incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit,
inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or
before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency,
body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified
party is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any
of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings,
whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based
upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in
a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment

 7
 

 

thereto or in
any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the
securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable
Securities are offered (“Blue Sky Filing”), or the omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any final
prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment
thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission
to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made
therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were
made, not misleading; or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the
Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including,
without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation
thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant
to a Registration Statement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through
(iii) being, collectively, “Violations”).  The Company shall reimburse the Investors and
each such controlling person promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due
and payable, for any legal fees or disbursements or other reasonable expenses
incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a):
(x) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person arising out of or based
upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person for
use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any
such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (y) shall not be available to the
extent such Claim is based on a failure of the Investor to deliver or to cause
to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company, if such
prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c);
and (z) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such
settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in full
force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the
Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities
by the Investors pursuant to Section 9 hereof.

(b)           In connection with a
Registration Statement, each Investor agrees to severally and not jointly
indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner
as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of
its officers, employees, representatives, or agents and each Person, if any,
who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the
Exchange Act (each an “Indemnified Party”), against any Claim or
Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or
Indemnified Damages arise out of or is based upon any Violation, in each case
to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by
such Investor for use in connection with such Registration Statement; and,
subject to Section 6(d), such Investor will reimburse any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or
defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement
contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution
contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any
Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of such
Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further,
however, that the Investor shall be liable under this Section 6(b) for only
that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net
proceeds to such Investor as a result of the sale of 

 8
 

Registrable
Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.  Such indemnity shall remain in full force and
effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified
Party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the
Investors pursuant to Section 9. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(b) with respect to any
prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Party if the
untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the prospectus was
corrected and such new prospectus was made available to each Investor prior to
such Investor’s use of the prospectus to which the Claim relates.

(c)           Promptly after receipt
by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of
the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action
or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party
shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying
party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice
of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to
participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly
with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the
defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party
and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be;
provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have
the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of not more than
one (1) counsel for such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party to be paid by
the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by
the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified
Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate
due to actual or potential differing 
interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any
other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding.  The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person
shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any
negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party
and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably
available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such
action or claim.  The indemnifying party
shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person fully apprised at all
times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with
respect thereto.  No indemnifying party
shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected
without its prior written consent; provided, however, that the indemnifying
party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent.  No indemnifying party shall, without the
prior written consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent
to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which
does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or
plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all
liability in respect to such claim or litigation.  Following indemnification as provided for
hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the
Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties,
firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been
made.  The failure to deliver written
notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement
of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability
to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to
the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend
such action.

 

 9

 

 

(d)           The indemnification
required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount
thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills
are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.

(e)           The indemnity
agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of
action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against
the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying
party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

7.             CONTRIBUTION.

To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying
party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make
the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would
otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law;
provided, however, that:  (i) no seller
of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of
Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds
received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.

8.             REPORTS UNDER
THE EXCHANGE ACT.

With a view to making available to the Investors the
benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any similar rule
or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investors to sell securities
of the Company to the public without registration (“Rule 144”) the
Company agrees to:

(a)           make and keep public
information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

(b)           file with the SEC in
a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under
the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject
to such requirements (it being understood that nothing herein shall limit the
Company’s obligations under Section 4(c) of the Securities Purchase Agreement)
and the filing of such reports and other documents as are  required by the applicable provisions of Rule
144; and

(c)           furnish to each
Investor so long as such Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon
request, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the
reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act,
(ii) a copy of the most recent annual or 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 to permit the Investors to sell such
securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

9.             AMENDMENT
OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the
observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance
and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of
the Company and Investors who then hold at least two-thirds (2/3) of the
Registrable Securities.  Any amendment or
waiver effected in accordance with this Section 9 shall be binding upon
each Investor and the Company.  No such
amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to fewer than all of
the holders of the Registrable Securities. 
No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or
consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of this Agreement
unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this
Agreement.

10.           MISCELLANEOUS.

(a)           A Person is deemed
to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns or is deemed
to own of record such Registrable Securities or owns the right to receive the
Registrable Securities.  If the Company receives
conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two (2) or more Persons
with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the
basis of instructions, notice or election received from the registered owner of
such Registrable Securities.

(b)           Any notices, consents,
waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the
terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been
delivered:  (i) upon receipt, when
delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided
confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and
kept on file by the sending party); or (iii) one (1) business day after deposit
with a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case properly
addressed to the party to receive the same.

(d)           The laws of the
State of New Jersey shall govern all issues concerning the relative rights of
the Company and the Investors as its stockholders.  All other questions concerning the
construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall
be governed by the internal laws of the State of New Jersey, without giving
effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of
the State of New Jersey or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the
application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New
Jersey.  Each party hereby irrevocably
submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Superior Courts of the State
of New Jersey, sitting in Hudson County, New Jersey and federal courts for the
District of New Jersey sitting Newark, New Jersey, for the adjudication of any
dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction
contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and
agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is
not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit,
action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of
such suit, action or proceeding is improper. 
Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and
consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by
mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it
under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and
sufficient service of process and notice thereof.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by
law.  If any provision of this Agreement
shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or
unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the
remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or
enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other
jurisdiction.  EACH PARTY HEREBY
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY
TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH
OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

(e)           This Agreement, the
Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions, the Securities Purchase Agreement and
related documents including the Convertible Debenture and the Security
Agreement dated the date hereof (the “Security Agreement”) constitute
the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject
matter hereof and thereof.  There are no
restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth
or referred to herein and therein.  This
Agreement, the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions, the Securities Purchase

hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

(f)            This Agreement
shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the permitted successors and
assigns of each of the parties hereto.

(g)           The headings in this
Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or
otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

(h)           This Agreement may
be executed in identical counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an
original but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement.  This Agreement, once executed by a party, may
be delivered to the other party hereto by facsimile transmission of a copy of
this Agreement bearing the signature of the party so delivering this Agreement.

(i)            Each party shall do
and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and
things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates,
instruments and documents, as the other party may reasonably request in order
to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

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.

Attention:

RE:         WORLDGATE COMMUNICATIONS, INC.

Ladies and
Gentlemen:

We
are counsel to WorldGate Communications, Inc., (the “Company”), and have
represented the Company in connection with that certain Securities Purchase
Agreement, dated as of                
     , 200  (the “Securities Purchase
Agreement”), entered into by and among the Company and the Buyers set forth
on Schedule I attached thereto (collectively the “Buyers”) pursuant to
which the Company has agreed to sell to the Buyers up to $11,000,000 of secured
convertible debentures, which shall be convertible into shares (the “Conversion
Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Common
Stock”), in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase
Agreement.  Pursuant to the Securities
Purchase Agreement, the Company also has entered into a Registration Rights
Agreement, dated as of                 
     , 200 , with the Buyers (the “Investor
Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed, among
other things, to register the Conversion Shares under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”). 
In connection with the Company’s obligations under the Securities
Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, on           ,
200 , the Company filed a Registration Statement (File No.       -          )
(the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) relating to the sale of the Conversion Shares.

In connection with the foregoing, we advise the
Transfer Agent that a member of the SEC’s staff has advised us by telephone
that the SEC has entered an order declaring the Registration Statement effective
under the 1933 Act at       P.M. on              ,
200  and we have no knowledge that any stop order suspending its
effectiveness has been issued or that any proceedings for that purpose are
pending before, or threatened by, the SEC and the Conversion Shares are
available for sale under the 1933 Act pursuant to the Registration Statement.

The statement made herein that “we have no knowledge”
is based solely on information actually known to those attorneys currently
practicing with this firm and engaged in the representation of the Company in
connection with the transactions contem­plated by the Securities Purchase
Agreement.

Very truly yours,

DRINKER BIDDLE
& REATH LLP
