Critical Home Care, Inc., a Nevada corporation having its principal executive
offices at 762 Summa Avenue, Westbury, New York 11590 (the "Grantor"), and the
Stanley Scholsohn Family Partnership, a partnership with offices at 14 Oak Hill
Lane, Woodbridge, Connecticut 06525 ("Optionee").

                              W I T N E S S E T H:
                              - - - - - - - - - -

         WHEREAS, Optionee and the Grantor executed a promissory note dated
February 22, 2003 (the "Note"); and

                  NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the Optionee lending to
the Corporation Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00), the Grantor hereby
grants the Optionee an option (the "Option") to purchase shares of the Grantor's
common stock, $.25 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), upon the following
terms and conditions:

         1.       OPTIONS.

         The Grantor hereby grants to the Optionee a non-qualified stock option
not intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code"), to purchase, until 5:00 P.M. New York City time on
February 21, 2008, unless earlier terminated hereunder ("Termination Date"), up
to an aggregate of 37,500 fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock.

         2.       PURCHASE PRICE.

         The purchase price ("Purchase Price") shall be the lesser of $1.00 per
share or an amount equal to the conversion price of any new convertible debt
issued by the Grantor within twelve (12) months of this agreement. The Grantor
shall pay all original issue or transfer taxes on the exercise of this Option
and all other fees and expenses necessarily incurred by the Grantor in
connection therewith.

         3.       EXERCISE OF OPTION.

                  (a) The Optionee shall notify the Grantor by hand delivery or
by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to its
principal office (Attn: Chief Executive Officer), as to the number of shares of
Common Stock which Optionee desires to purchase pursuant to the exercise of the
Option herein granted, which notice shall be accompanied by (i) a certified or
bank check payable to the order of the Grantor in an amount equal to the
Purchase Price multiplied by the number of shares of Grantor's Common Stock for
which this Option is being exercised, or (ii) the delivery of shares of
Grantor's Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the Purchase Price
multiplied by the number of shares of Grantor's Common Stock for which this
Option is being exercised.
<PAGE>

         (b)      The Option granted hereunder shall vest immediately.

         4.       DIVISIBILITY AND ASSIGNABILITY OF THE OPTIONS.

         (a)      The Optionee may exercise the Option herein granted from time
to time subject to the provisions above with respect to any whole number of
shares included therein, but in no event may an Option be exercised as to less
than one hundred (100) shares at any one time, or the remaining shares covered
by the Option if less than one hundred (100).

         (b)      Except as specifically provided herein, the Optionee may not
give, grant, sell, exchange, transfer legal title, pledge, assign or otherwise
encumber or dispose of the Option herein granted or any interest therein,
otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and the Option
herein granted, or any of them, shall be exercisable during the Optionee's
lifetime only by the Optionee.

         5.       STOCK AS INVESTMENT.

         By accepting the Option herein granted, the Optionee agrees for
himself, his heirs and legatees that any and all shares of Common Stock
purchased hereunder shall be acquired for investment purposes only and not for
sale or distribution, and upon the issuance of any or all of the shares of
Common Stock issuable under the Option, the Optionee, or his heirs or legatees
receiving such shares of Common Stock, shall deliver to the Grantor a
representation in writing, that such shares of Common Stock are being acquired
in good faith for investment purposes only and not for sale or distribution.
Grantor may place a "stop transfer" order with respect to such shares of Common
Stock with its transfer agent and place an appropriate restrictive legend on the
stock certificate evidencing such shares of Common Stock.

         6.       RESTRICTION ON ISSUANCE OF SHARES.

         The Grantor shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate
for shares of its Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of the Option unless
(a) the issuance of such shares has been registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or counsel to
the Grantor shall have given an opinion that such registration is not required;
(b) approval, to the extent required, shall have been obtained from any state
regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, and (c) permission for the listing
of such shares shall have been given by any national securities exchange on
which the Common Stock of the Grantor is at the time of issuance listed.
<PAGE>

         7.       ADJUSTMENT ON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION.

         (a)      In the event of changes in the outstanding Common Stock of the
Grantor by reason of stock dividends, stock splits, recapitalizations,
reclassifications, combinations and exchanges of shares, the number of shares of
Common Stock as to which the Option may be exercised shall be correspondingly
adjusted by the Grantor, and the Purchase Price shall be adjusted so that the
product of the Purchase Price immediately after such event multiplied by the
number of options subject to this Agreement immediately after such event shall
be equal to the product of the Purchase Price multiplied by the number of shares
subject to this Agreement immediately prior to the occurrence of such event. No
adjustment shall be made with respect to stock dividends or splits which do not
exceed 5% in any fiscal year, cash dividends or the issuance to stockholders of
the Grantor of rights to subscribe for additional shares of Common Stock or
other securities. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, the
Board of Directors of the Grantor shall have the discretionary power to take any
action necessary or appropriate to prevent the Option from being disqualified as
"Non-Qualified Stock Options" under the United States Income Tax laws then in
effect.

         (b)      In the event of any consolidation or merger of the Grantor
with or into another company, or the conveyance of all or substantially all of
the assets of the Grantor to another company for solely stock and/or securities,
each then unexercised Option granted hereunder shall upon exercise thereafter
entitle the holder thereof to such number of shares of Common Stock or other
securities or property to which a holder of shares of Common Stock of the
Grantor would have been entitled to upon such consolidation, merger or
conveyance; and in any such case appropriate adjustment, as determined by the
Board of Directors of the Grantor (or successor entity) shall be made as set
forth above with respect to any future changes in the capitalization of the
Grantor or its successor entity. In the event of the proposed dissolution or
liquidation of the Grantor, or, except as provided in (d) below, the sale of
substantially all the assets of the Grantor for other than stock/and or
securities, all unexercised Options granted hereunder will automatically
terminate, unless otherwise provided by the Board of Directors of the Grantor or
any authorized committee thereof.

         (c)      Any adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock shall
apply proportionately to only the unexercised portion of the Options granted
hereunder. If fractions of a share of Common Stock would result from any such
adjustment, the adjustment shall be revised to the next higher whole number of
shares of Common Stock so long as such increase does not result in the holder of
the Option being deemed to own more than 5% of the total combined voting power
or value of all classes of shares of capital stock of the Grantor or
subsidiaries.

         (d)      If any unexercised option is not terminated pursuant to
subparagraph (b) above, any option granted under the Plan may, at the discretion
of the Board of Directors of the Grantor and said other corporation, be
exchanged for options to purchase shares of capital stock of another corporation
which the Grantor and/or a subsidiary thereof is merged into, consolidated with,
or all or a substantial portion of the property or stock of which is acquired by
or separated or reorganized into. The terms, provisions and benefits to the
Optionee of such substitute option(s) shall in all respects be identical to the
terms, provisions and benefits of Optionee under

<PAGE>

this Option prior to said substitution. To the extent the above may be
inconsistent with Sections 424(a)(1) and (2) of the Code, the above shall be
deemed interpreted so as to comply therewith.

         8.       NO RIGHTS IN OPTION STOCK.

         Optionee shall have no rights as a shareholder in respect of shares of
Common Stock as to which the Option granted hereunder shall not have been
exercised and payment made as herein provided. Grantor acknowledges that all
options transferee to Optionee shall be the property of Optionee and Grantor
shall have no ownership interest or other claim to the options at any time,
including, but not limited to once the Grantor fulfills its obligation under the
Note.

         9.       BINDING EFFECT.

         Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their successors,
legal representatives and assigns.

         10.      WITHHOLDING.

         Optionee agrees to cooperate with the Grantor to take all steps
necessary or appropriate for the withholding of taxes by the Grantor under law
or regulation in connection therewith. In the event the Optionee does not make
the required withholding payment at the time of exercise, the Grantor may make
such provisions and take such steps as it, in its sole discretion, may deem
necessary or appropriate for the withholding of any taxes that the Grantor is
required by any law or regulation of any governmental authority, whether
federal, state or local, domestic or foreign, to withhold in connection with the
exercise of any Option, including, but not limited to, (i) the withholding of
payment of all or any portion of such Option and/or SAR until the Optionee
reimburses the Grantor for the amount the Grantor is required to withhold with
respect to such taxes, or (ii) the canceling of any number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of such Option and/or SAR in an amount sufficient
to reimburse the Grantor for the amount it is required to so withhold, (iii) the
selling of any property contingently credited by the Grantor for the purpose of
exercising such Option, in order to withhold or reimburse the Grantor for the
amount it is required to so withhold, and/or (iv) withholding the amount due
from the Optionee's wages if he is employed by the Grantor or any subsidiary
thereof.

         11.      MISCELLANEOUS.

         This Agreement shall be construed under the laws of the State of New
York, without application to the principles of conflicts of laws. Headings have
been included herein for convenience of reference only, and shall not be deemed
a part of the Agreement. References in this Agreement to the pronouns "him,"
"he" and "his" are not intended to convey the masculine gender alone and are
employed in a generic sense and apply equally to the feminine gender or to an
entity.

                                    Recitals

         WHEREAS, the Purchaser has been issued an option to purchase 37,500
shares of Common Stock of the Company as of the date hereof (the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the option are referred to herein as the
"Shares"); and

         WHEREAS, the Company and the Purchaser desire to provide for certain
arrangements with respect to the registration of shares of capital stock of the
Company under the Securities Act of 1933;

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants
contained in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.       Certain Definitions.

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

         "Commission" means the Securities and Exchange Commission, or any other
federal agency at the time administering the Securities Act.

         "Common Stock" means the Common Stock of the Company.

         "Exchange Act" means the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
or any successor federal statute, and the rules and regulations of the
Commission issued under such Act, as they each may, from time to time, be in
effect.

         "Other Holders" shall mean holders of securities of the Company (other
than the Stockholders) who are entitled, by contract with the Company, to have
securities included in a Registration Statement.

         "Prospectus" means the prospectus included in any Registration
Statement, as amended or supplemented by an amendment or prospectus supplement,
including post-effective

<PAGE>

amendments, and all material incorporated by reference or deemed to be
incorporated by reference in such Prospectus.

         "Registration Statement" means a registration statement filed by the
Company with the Commission for a public offering and sale of securities of the
Company (other than a registration statement on Form S-8 or Form S-4, or their
successors, or any other form for a similar limited purpose, or any registration
statement covering only securities proposed to be issued in exchange for
securities or assets of another corporation).

         "Registration Expenses" means the expenses described in Section 2.3.

         "Registrable Shares" means the Shares; provided, however, that shares
of Common Stock which are Registrable Shares shall cease to be Registrable
Shares upon (i) any sale pursuant to a Registration Statement or Rule 144 under
the Securities Act or (ii) any sale in any manner to a person or entity which,
by virtue of Section 3 of this Agreement, is not entitled to the rights provided
by this Agreement.

         "Securities Act" means the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any
successor federal statute, and the rules and regulations of the Commission
issued under such Act, as they each may, from time to time, be in effect.

         "Selling Stockholder" means any Stockholder owning Registrable Shares
included in a Registration Statement.

         "Stockholders" means the Purchaser and any persons or entities to whom
the rights granted under this Agreement are transferred by the Purchaser, his
successors or assigns pursuant to Section 3 hereof.

         2.       Registration Rights

                  2.1 Incidental Registration.

                           (a) Whenever the Company proposes to file a
Registration Statement at any time and from time to time, it will, prior to such
filing, give written notice to all Stockholders of its intention to do so;
provided, that no such notice need be given if no Registrable Shares are to be
included therein as a result of a determination of the managing underwriter
pursuant to Section 2.1(b). Upon the written request of a Stockholder or
Stockholders given within 20 days after the Company provides such notice (which
request shall state the intended method of disposition of such Registrable
Shares), the Company shall use its best efforts to cause all Registrable Shares
which the Company has been requested by such Stockholder or Stockholders to
register to be registered under the Securities Act to the extent necessary to
permit their sale or other disposition in accordance with the intended methods
of distribution specified in the request of such Stockholder or Stockholders;
provided that the Company shall have the right to postpone or withdraw any
registration effected pursuant to this Section 2.1 without obligation to any
Stockholder.

                                       2
<PAGE>

                           (b) If the registration for which the Company gives
notice pursuant to Section 2.1(a) is a registered public offering involving an
underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Stockholders as a part of the
written notice given pursuant to Section 2.1(a). In such event, the right of any
Stockholder to include its Registrable Shares in such registration pursuant to
Section 2.1 shall be conditioned upon such Stockholder's participation in such
underwriting on the terms set forth herein. All Stockholders proposing to
distribute their securities through such underwriting shall enter into an
underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters
selected for the underwriting by the Company, provided that such underwriting
agreement shall not provide for indemnification or contribution obligations on
the part of Stockholders materially greater than the obligations of the
Stockholders pursuant to Section 2.4. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Section 2.1, if the managing underwriter determines that the inclusion of
all shares requested to be registered would adversely affect the offering, the
Company may limit the number of Registrable Shares to be included in the
registration and underwriting. The Company shall so advise all holders of
Registrable Shares requesting registration, and the number of shares that are
entitled to be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated
in the following manner. The securities of the Company held by holders other
than Stockholders and Other Holders shall be excluded from such registration and
underwriting to the extent deemed advisable by the managing underwriter, and, if
a further limitation on the number of shares is required, the number of shares
that may be included in such registration and underwriting shall be allocated
among all Stockholders and Other Holders requesting registration in proportion,
as nearly as practicable, to the respective number of shares of Common Stock (on
an as-converted basis) which they held at the time the Company gives the notice
specified in Section 2.1(a). If any Stockholder or Other Holder would thus be
entitled to include more securities than such holder requested to be registered,
the excess shall be allocated among other requesting Stockholders and Other
Holders pro rata in the manner described in the preceding sentence. If any
holder of Registrable Shares or any officer, director or Other Holder
disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such person may elect to
withdraw there from by written notice to the Company, and any Registrable Shares
or other securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be
withdrawn from such registration.

                  2.2      Registration Procedures.

                           (a) If and whenever the Company is required by the
provisions of this Agreement to use its best efforts to effect the registration
of any Registrable Shares under the Securities Act, the Company shall:

                                   (i) file with the Commission a Registration
Statement with respect to such Registrable Shares and use its best efforts to
cause that Registration Statement to become effective as soon as possible;

                                   (ii) as expeditiously as possible prepare and
file with the Commission any amendments and supplements to the Registration
Statement and the prospectus included in the Registration Statement as may be
necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act (including the
anti-fraud provisions thereof) and to keep the Registration

                                       3
<PAGE>

Statement effective for six months from the effective date or such lesser period
until all such Registrable Shares are sold;

                                   (iii) as expeditiously as possible furnish to
each Selling Stockholder such reasonable numbers of copies of the Prospectus,
including any preliminary Prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act, and such other documents as such Selling Stockholder may
reasonably request in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition
of the Registrable Shares owned by such Selling Stockholder;

                                   (iv) as expeditiously as possible use its
best efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Shares covered by the
Registration Statement under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such states as
the Selling Stockholders shall reasonably request, and do any and all other acts
and things that may be necessary or desirable to enable the Selling Stockholders
to consummate the public sale or other disposition in such states of the
Registrable Shares owned by the Selling Stockholder; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be required in connection with this paragraph (iv) to qualify
as a foreign corporation or execute a general consent to service of process in
any jurisdiction;

                                   (v) as expeditiously as possible, cause all
such Registrable Shares to be listed on each securities exchange or automated
quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then
listed;

                                   (vi) promptly provide a transfer agent and
registrar for all such Registrable Shares not later than the effective date of
such registration statement;

                                   (vii) promptly make available for inspection
by the Selling Stockholders, any managing underwriter participating in any
disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement, and any attorney or
accountant or other agent retained by any such underwriter or selected by the
Selling Stockholders, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate
documents and properties of the Company and cause the Company's officers,
directors, employees and independent accountants to supply all information
reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or
agent in connection with such Registration Statement;

                                   (viii) as expeditiously as possible, notify
each Selling Stockholder, promptly after it shall receive notice thereof, of the
time when such Registration Statement has become effective or a supplement to
any Prospectus forming a part of such Registration Statement has been filed; and

                                   (ix) as expeditiously as possible following
the effectiveness of such Registration Statement, notify each seller of such
Registrable Shares of any request by the Commission for the amending or
supplementing of such Registration Statement or Prospectus.

                           (b) If the Company has delivered a Prospectus to the
Selling Stockholders and after having done so the Prospectus is amended to
comply with the

                                       4
<PAGE>

requirements of the Securities Act, the Company shall promptly notify the
Selling Stockholders and, if requested, the Selling Stockholders shall
immediately cease making offers of Registrable Shares and return all
Prospectuses to the Company. The Company shall promptly provide the Selling
Stockholders with revised Prospectuses and, following receipt of the revised
Prospectuses, the Selling Stockholders shall be free to resume making offers of
the Registrable Shares.

                           (c) In the event that, in the judgment of the
Company, it is advisable to suspend use of a Prospectus included in a
Registration Statement due to pending material developments or other events that
have not yet been publicly disclosed and as to which the Company believes public
disclosure would be detrimental to the Company, the Company shall notify all
Selling Stockholders to such effect, and, upon receipt of such notice, each such
Selling Stockholder shall immediately discontinue any sales of Registrable
Shares pursuant to such Registration Statement until such Selling Stockholder
has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus or until such
Selling Stockholder is advised in writing by the Company that the then current
Prospectus may be used and has received copies of any additional or supplemental
filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in such
Prospectus.

                  2.3      Allocation of Expenses. The Company will pay all
Registration Expenses for all registrations under this Agreement. For purposes
of this Section, the term "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses
incurred by the Company in complying with this Agreement, including, without
limitation, all registration and filing fees, exchange listing fees, printing
expenses, fees and expenses of counsel for the Company and the fees and expenses
of one counsel selected by the Selling Stockholders to represent the Selling
Stockholders, state Blue Sky fees and expenses, and the expense of any special
audits incident to or required by any such registration, but excluding
underwriting discounts, selling commissions and the fees and expenses of Selling
Stockholders' own counsel (other than the counsel selected to represent all
Selling Stockholders).

                  2.4      Indemnification and Contribution.

                           (a) In the event of any registration of any of the
Registrable Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, the
Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Selling Stockholder, each
underwriter of such Registrable Shares, and each other person, if any, who
controls such Selling Stockholder or underwriter within the meaning of the
Securities Act or the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, joint or several, to which such Selling Stockholder, underwriter or
controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange
Act, state securities or Blue Sky laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or
are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material
fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Shares
were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final
prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or
supplement to such Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon the
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; and the
Company

                                       5
<PAGE>

will reimburse such Selling Stockholder, underwriter and each such controlling
person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by such Selling
Stockholder, underwriter or controlling person in connection with investigating
or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided,
however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that
any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any
untrue statement or omission made in such Registration Statement, preliminary
prospectus or prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon
and in conformity with information furnished to the Company, in writing, by or
on behalf of such Selling Stockholder, underwriter or controlling person
specifically for use in the preparation thereof.

                           (b) In the event of any registration of any of the
Registrable Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, each
Selling Stockholder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless
the Company, each of its directors and officers and each underwriter (if any)
and each person, if any, who controls the Company or any such underwriter within
the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company, such
directors and officers, underwriter or controlling person may become subject
under the Securities Act, Exchange Act, state securities or Blue Sky laws or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement
under which such Registrable Shares were registered under the Securities Act,
any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained in the Registration
Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or
arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, if the statement or omission was made in reliance upon
and in conformity with information relating to such Selling Stockholder
furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Selling Stockholder
specifically for use in connection with the preparation of such Registration
Statement, prospectus, amendment or supplement; provided, however, that the
obligations of a Selling Stockholder hereunder shall be limited to an amount
equal to the net proceeds to such Selling Stockholder of Registrable Shares sold
in connection with such registration.

                           (c) Each party entitled to indemnification under this
Section (the "Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required to
provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such
Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be
sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any
such claim or any litigation resulting there from; provided, that counsel for
the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or
litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld); and, provided, further, that the failure of any
Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section except to the extent
that the Indemnifying Party is adversely affected by such failure. The
Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party's expense;
provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall pay such expense if
representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the
Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing
interests between the Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such
counsel in such proceeding;

                                       6
<PAGE>

provided further that in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be required to
pay the expenses of more than one law firm per jurisdiction as counsel for the
Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party also shall be responsible for the
expenses of such defense if the Indemnifying Party does not elect to assume such
defense. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation
shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of
any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an
unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such
Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or
litigation, and no Indemnified Party shall consent to entry of any judgment or
settle such claim or litigation without the prior written consent of the
Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

                           (d) In order to provide for just and equitable
contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in this
Section 2.4 is due in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be
unavailable to an Indemnified Party in respect to any losses, claims, damages
and liabilities referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party shall, in lieu
of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, contribute to the amount paid or payable
by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities to which such party may be subject in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the
Selling Stockholders on the other in connection with the statements or omissions
which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company and
the Selling Stockholders shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact related
to information supplied by the Company or the Selling Stockholders and the
parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Selling
Stockholders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 2.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any
other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable
considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
paragraph of Section 2.4, (a) in no case shall any one Selling Stockholder be
liable or responsible for any amount in excess of the net proceeds received by
such Selling Stockholder from the offering of Registrable Shares and (b) the
Company shall be liable and responsible for any amount in excess of such
proceeds; provided, however, that no person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly
after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding
against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made
against another party or parties under this Section, notify such party or
parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission so to notify such
party or parties from whom contribution may be sought shall not relieve such
party from any other obligation it or they may have thereunder or otherwise
under this Section. No party shall be liable for contribution with respect to
any action, suit, proceeding or claim settled without its prior written consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

                  2.5      Information by Holder. Each holder of Registrable
Shares included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such
information regarding such holder and the distribution proposed by such holder
as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as

                                       7
<PAGE>

shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or
compliance referred to in this Agreement.

                  2.6      "Stand-Off" Agreement; Confidentiality of Notices.
Each Stockholder, if requested by the Company and the managing underwriter of an
underwritten public offering by the Company of Common Stock, shall not sell or
otherwise transfer or dispose of any Registrable Shares or other securities of
the Company held by such Stockholder for a period of 90 days following the
effective date of a Registration Statement; provided, that all stockholders of
the Company then holding at least 5% of the outstanding Common Stock (on an
as-converted basis) and all officers and directors of the Company enter into
similar agreements. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with
respect to the Registrable Shares or other securities subject to the foregoing
restriction until the end of such 90-day period. Any Stockholder receiving any
written notice from the Company regarding the Company's plans to file a
Registration Statement shall treat such notice confidentially and shall not
disclose such information to any person other than as necessary to exercise its
rights under this Agreement.

                  2.7      Rule 144 Requirements. The Company agrees to:

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

                           (b) use its best efforts to file with the Commission
in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under
the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject
to such reporting requirements); and

                           (c) furnish to any holder of Registrable Shares upon
request (i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the
reporting requirements of Rule 144 and of the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements),
(ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and
(iii) such other reports and documents of the Company as such holder may
reasonably request to avail itself of any similar rule or regulation of the
Commission allowing it to sell any such securities without registration.

                  2.8      Termination. All of the Company's obligations to
register Registrable Shares under Section 2.1 of this Agreement shall terminate
three years after the date of this Agreement.

3.       Transfers of Rights. This Agreement, and the rights and obligations of
the Purchaser hereunder, may be assigned by such Purchaser to any partner,
member, stockholder or affiliate of such Purchaser, or any person or entity for
which Purchaser acts as trustee, and such transferee shall be deemed a
"Purchaser" for purposes of this Agreement; provided that the transferee
provides written notice of such assignment to the Company and agrees in writing
to be bound hereby.

4.       General.

                           (a) Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability
of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or
enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.

                           (b) Specific Performance. In addition to any and all
other remedies that may be available at law in the event of any breach of this
Agreement, the Purchaser shall be entitled to specific performance of the
agreements and obligations of the Company hereunder and to such other injunctive
or other equitable relief as may be granted by a court of competent
jurisdiction.

                           (c) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York
(without reference to the conflicts of law provisions thereof).

                           (d) Notices. All notices, requests, consents, and

communication under this Agreement using any other means (including, without
limitation, personal delivery, messenger service, telecopy, first class mail or
electronic mail), but no such notice, request, consent or other communication
shall be deemed to have been duly given unless and until it is actually received
by the party for whom it is intended. Any party may change the address to which
notices, requests, consents or other communications hereunder are to be
delivered by giving the other parties notice in the manner set forth in this
Section.

                           (e) Complete Agreement. This Agreement constitutes
the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the
subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings
relating to such subject matter.

                           (f) Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this

Notwithstanding the

                                       9
<PAGE>

foregoing, this Agreement may be amended or terminated, and any right hereunder
may be waived with respect to all parties to this Agreement with the consent of
the holders of less than all Registrable Shares only in a manner which applies
to all such holders in the same fashion. Any such amendment, termination or
waiver effected in accordance with this Section 4(f) shall be binding on all
parties hereto, even if they do not execute such consent and the Company. No
waivers of or exceptions to any term, condition or provision of this Agreement,
in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further
or continuing waiver of any such term, condition or provision.
