                                          October 16, 2003

THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, General Electric Capital Corporation
("Holder") is entitled to subscribe for and purchase Eighteen Thousand Seven
Hundred Fifty (18,750) shares of the fully paid and nonassessable Series J
Preferred Stock (the "Shares" or the "Preferred Stock") of Viacell, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), at the Warrant Price (as hereinafter
defined), subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth. As used herein, the term "Series J Preferred Stock" shall
mean the Company's presently authorized Series J Preferred Stock and any stock
into which such Series J Preferred Stock may hereafter be converted or
exchanged.

1. Warrant Price. The Warrant Price shall initially be Eight and 00/100 dollars
($8.00) per share, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7 below.

2. Conditions to Exercise. The purchase right represented by this Warrant may be
exercised at any time, or from time to time, in whole or in part during the term
commencing on the date hereof and ending at 5:00 P.M. Pacific time on the tenth
anniversary of the date of this Warrant.

3. Method of Exercise, Payment; Issuance of Shares; Issuance of New Warrant.

      (a) Cash Exercise. Subject to Section 2 hereof, the purchase right
represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder hereof, in whole or
in part, by the surrender of this Warrant (with a duly executed Notice of
Exercise in the form attached hereto) at the principal office of the Company (as
set forth in Section 18 below) and by payment to the Company, by check, of an
amount: equal to the then applicable Warrant Price per share multiplied by the
number of shares then being purchased. In the event of any exercise of the
rights represented by this Warrant, certificates for the shares of stock so
purchased shall be in the name of, and delivered to, the Holder hereof, or as
such Holder may direct (subject to the terms of transfer contained herein and
upon payment by such Holder hereof of any applicable transfer taxes). Such
delivery shall be made within 30 days after exercise of the Warrant and at the
Company's expense and, unless this Warrant has been fully exercised or expired,
a new Warrant having terms and conditions substantially identical to this

which this Warrant shall not have been exercised, shall also be issued to the
Holder hereof within 30 days after exercise of the Warrant.
<PAGE>
      (b) Net Issue Exercise. Holder may also elect to receive shares equal to
the value of this Warrant (or of any portion thereof remaining unexercised) by
surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with
notice of such election, in which event the Company shall issue to Holder the
number of shares of the Company's Preferred Stock computed using the following
formula:

            X = Y (A-B)
                -------
                   A

            Where X = the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be issued to
            Holder.

            Y = the number of shares of Preferred Stock purchasable under this
            Warrant (at the date of such calculation).

            A = the Fair Market Value of one share of the Company's Preferred
            Stock (at the date of such calculation).

            B = Warrant Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).

      (c) Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Section 3, Fair Market Value
of one share of the Company's Preferred Stock shall mean:

            (i) In the event of an exercise in connection with an Initial Public
      Offering, the per share Fair Market Value for the Preferred Stock shall be
      the Offering Price at which the underwriters initially sell Common Stock
      to the public multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock into
      which each share of Preferred Stock is then convertible; or

            (ii) The average of the closing bid and asked prices of Common Stock
      quoted in the Over-The-Counter Market Summary, the last reported sale
      price quoted on the Nasdaq National Market ("NNM") or on any exchange on
      which the Common Stock is listed, whichever is applicable, as published in
      the Western Edition of the Wall Street Journal for the ten (10) trading
      days prior to the date of determination of Fair Market Value, multiplied
      by the number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Preferred
      Stock is then convertible; or

            (iii) In the event of an exercise in connection with a merger,
      acquisition or other consolidation in which the Company is not the
      surviving entity, the per share Fair Market Value for the Preferred Stock
      shall be the value to be received per share of Preferred Stock by all
      holders of the Preferred Stock in such transaction as determined by the
      Board of Directors; or

            (iv) In any other instance, the per share Fair Market Value for the
      Preferred Stock shall be as determined in good faith by the Company's
      Board of Directors. In the event of 3(c)(iii) or 3(c)(iv), above, the
      Company's Board of Directors shall prepare a certificate, to be signed by
      an authorized officer of the Company, setting forth in

                                      -2-
<PAGE>
      reasonable detail the basis for and method of determination of the per
      share Fair Market Value of the Preferred Stock. The Board will also
      certify to the Holder that this per share Fair Market Value will be
      applicable to all holders of the Company's Preferred Stock. Such
      certification must be made to Holder at least thirty (30) business days
      prior to the proposed effective date of the merger, consolidation, sale,
      or other triggering event as defined in 3(c)(iii) or 3(c)(iv).

      (d) Automatic Exercise. To the extent this Warrant is not previously
exercised, it shall be automatically exercised in accordance with Sections 3(b)
and 3(c) hereof (even if not surrendered) immediately before its expiration,
involuntary termination or cancellation.

4. Representations and Warranties of Holder and the Company

      (a) Representations and Warranties by Holder. The Holder represents and
warrants to the Company with respect to this purchase as follows:

            (i) The Holder has substantial experience in evaluating and
      investing in private placement transactions of securities of companies
      similar to the Company so that the Holder is capable of evaluating the
      merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity to
      protect its interests.

            (ii) Except for transfers to a Holder affiliate, the Holder is
      acquiring the Warrant and the Shares of Preferred Stock issuable upon
      exercise of the Warrant (collectively the "Securities") for investment for
      its own account and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with,
      any distribution thereof. The Holder understands that the Securities have
      not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
      "Act") by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions
      of the Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of
      the investment intent as expressed herein.

            (iii) The Holder acknowledges that the Securities must be held
      indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Act or an exemption
      from such registration is available. The Holder is aware of the provisions
      of Rule 144 promulgated under the Act.

            (iv) The Holder is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of
      Regulation D promulgated under the Act.

            (v) The Holder has had an opportunity to discuss the Company's
      business, management and financial affairs with its management and an
      opportunity to review the Company's facilities. The Holder understands
      that such discussions, as well as the written information issued by the
      Company, were intended to describe the aspects of the Company's business
      -and prospects which the Company believes to be material but were not
      necessarily a thorough or exhaustive description.

      (b) Company hereby represents, and warrants to Holder that, except as set
forth in the schedule attached to this Warrant as Exhibit A (the "Disclosure
Schedule"), the statements in the following paragraphs of this Section 4(b) are
true and correct (a) as of the date hereof and (b)

                                      -3-
<PAGE>
except where any such representation and warranty relates specifically to an
earlier date, as of the date of any exercise of this Warrant.

            (i) Corporate Organization and Authority. Company (a) is a
      corporation duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing in its
      jurisdiction of incorporation, (b) has the corporate power and authority
      to own and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now
      conducted and as proposed to be conducted; and (c) is qualified as a
      foreign corporation in all jurisdictions where such qualification is
      required.

            (ii) Corporate Power. Company has all requisite legal and corporate
      power and authority to execute, issue and deliver the Warrant, to issue
      the Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Warrant, and
      to carry out and perform its obligations under the Warrant and any related
      agreements.

            (iii) Authorization, Enforceability. All corporate action on the
      part of Company, its officers, directors and shareholders necessary for
      the authorization, execution, delivery and performance of its obligations
      under this Warrant and for the authorization, issuance and delivery of the
      Warrant and the Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant has
      been taken and this Warrant constitutes the legally binding and valid
      obligation of Company enforceable in accordance with its terms.

            (iv) Valid Issuance of Warrant and Preferred Stock. The Warrant has
      been validly issued and is free of restrictions on transfer other than
      restrictions on transfer set forth herein and under applicable state and
      federal securities laws. The Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion of
      this Warrant, when issued, sold and delivered in accordance with the terms
      of this Warrant for the consideration expressed herein, will be duly and
      validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and will be free of
      restrictions on transfer other than restrictions on transfer under this
      Warrant and under applicable state and federal securities laws. Subject to
      applicable restrictions on transfer, the issuance and delivery of the
      Warrant and the Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion of the Warrant
      are not subject to any preemptive or other similar rights or any liens or
      encumbrances except as specifically set forth in Company's Certificate of
      Incorporation or this Warrant. The offer, sale and issuance of the Warrant
      and Preferred Stock, as contemplated by this Warrant, are exempt from the
      prospectus and registration requirements of applicable United States
      federal and state security laws, and neither Company nor any authorized
      agent acting on its behalf has or will take any action hereafter that
      would cause the loss of such exemption.

            (v) No Conflict with Other Instruments. The execution, delivery, and
      performance of this Warrant will not result in any violation of, be in
      conflict with, or constitute a default under, with or without the passage
      of time or the giving of notice (a) any provision of Company's Certificate
      of Incorporation or by-laws; (b) any provision of any judgment, decree, or
      order to which Company is a party or by which it is bound or an event
      which results in the creation of any material lien, charge or encumbrance
      upon any material assets of Company; (c) any contract, obligation, or
      commitment to which Company is a party or by which it is bound; or (d) any
      statute, rule, or governmental regulation applicable to Company.

      authorized.

            (vii) Governmental Consents. No consent, approval, order or
      authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, declaration
      or filing with, any federal, state or local governmental authority on the

      Preferred Stock in conformity with the terms of this Warrant are exempt
      from the registration requirements of the Act and any applicable state
      laws.

5. Legends.

      (a) Each certificate representing the Securities shall be endorsed with
the following legend:

            THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
            OF 1933 AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED UNLESS COVERED BY AN EFFECTIVE
            REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SAID ACT, A "NO ACTION" LETTER FROM THE
            SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION WITH RESPECT TO SUCH TRANSFER, A
            TRANSFER MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144 OF THE SECURITIES AND
            EXCHANGE COMMISSION, OR (IF REASONABLY REQUIRED BY THE COMPANY) AN
            OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY
            SUCH TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM SUCH REGISTRATION.

                                      -5-
<PAGE>
The Company need not enter into its stock records a transfer of Securities
unless the conditions specified in the foregoing legend are satisfied. The
Company may also instruct its transfer agent not to allow the transfer of any of
the Shares unless the conditions specified in the foregoing legend are
satisfied.

      (b) Removal of Legend and Transfer Restrictions. The legend relating to
the Act endorsed on a certificate pursuant to paragraph 5(a) of this Warrant
shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend
to the Holder of the Securities if (i) the Securities are registered under the
Act and a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Act is
available or (ii) the Holder provides to the Company an opinion of counsel for
the Holder reasonably satisfactory to the Company, a no-action letter or
interpretive opinion of the staff of the SEC reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect
that public sale, transfer or assignment of the Securities may be made without
registration and without compliance with any restriction such as Rule 144.

6. Condition of Transfer or Exercise of Warrant. It shall be a condition to any
transfer or exercise of this Warrant that at the time of such transfer or
exercise, the Holder shall provide the Company with a representation in writing
that the Holder or transferee is acquiring this Warrant and the shares of
Preferred Stock to be issued upon exercise for investment purposes only and not
with a view to any sale or distribution, or will provide the Company with a
statement of pertinent facts covering any proposed distribution. As a further
condition to any transfer of this Warrant or any or all of the shares of
Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, other than a transfer
registered under the Act, the Company may request a legal opinion, in form and
substance satisfactory to the Company and its counsel, reciting the pertinent
circumstances surrounding the proposed transfer and stating that such transfer
is exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Act.
The Company shall not require Holder to provide an opinion of counsel if the
transfer is to an affiliate of Holder. Each certificate evidencing the shares
issued upon exercise of the Warrant or upon any transfer of the shares (other
than a transfer registered under the Act or any subsequent transfer of shares so
registered) shall, at the Company's option, if the Shares are not freely
saleable under Rule 144(k) under the Act, contain a legend in form and substance
satisfactory to the Company and its counsel, restricting the transfer of the
shares to sales or other dispositions exempt from the requirements of the Act.
As further condition to each transfer, at the request of the Company, the Holder
shall surrender this Warrant to the Company and the transferee shall receive and
accept a Warrant, of like tenor and date, executed by the Company.

7. Adjustment for Certain Events. The number and kind of securities purchasable
upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Warrant Price shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events, as follows:

      (a) Reclassification or Merger. In case of any reclassification or change
of securities of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (other than a
change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to
par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), or in case of any
merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a merger with
another corporation in which the Company is the acquiring and the surviving
corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or change of
outstanding securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant), or in case of
any sale of all or substantially all of the

                                      -6-
<PAGE>
assets of the Company, the Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation,
as the case may be, shall duly execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant
(in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder of this Warrant), or the
Company shall make appropriate provision without the issuance of a new Warrant,
so that the Holder shall have the right to receive, at a total purchase price
not to exceed that payable upon the exercise of the unexercised portion of this
Warrant, and in lieu of the shares of Preferred Stock theretofore issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other
securities, money and property receivable upon such reclassification, change,
merger or sale by a Holder of the number of shares of Preferred Stock then
purchasable under this Warrant, or in the case of such a merger or sale in which
the consideration paid consists all or in part of assets other than securities
of the successor or purchasing corporation, at the option of the Holder, the
securities of the successor or purchasing corporation having a value at the time
of the transaction equivalent to the value of the Preferred Stock purchasable
upon exercise of this Warrant at the time of the transaction. Any new Warrant
shall provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 7. The provisions of
this subparagraph (a) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications,
changes, mergers and transfers.

      (b) Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time while
this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine its
outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, the Warrant Price shall be
proportionately decreased and the number of Shares issuable; hereunder shall be
proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision and the Warrant Price
shall be proportionately increased and the number of Shares issuable hereunder
shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a combination.

      (c) Stock Dividends and Other Distributions. If the Company at any time
while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall (i) pay a dividend with
respect to Preferred Stock payable in Preferred Stock, then the Warrant Price
shall be adjusted, from and after the date of determination of shareholders
entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, to that price determined by
multiplying the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such date of
determination by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the total number
of shares of Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or
distribution, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the total number of
shares of Preferred Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or
distribution; or (ii) make any other distribution with respect to Preferred
Stock (except any distribution specifically provided for in Sections 7(a) and
7(b)), then, in each such case, provision shall be made by the Company such that
the Holder of this Warrant shall receive upon exercise of this Warrant a
proportionate share of any such dividend or distribution as though it were the
Holder of the Preferred Stock (or Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof)
as of the record date fixed for the determination of the shareholders of the
Company entitled to receive such dividend or distribution.

      (d) Adjustment of Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment in the Warrant
Price, the number of Shares purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted, to the
nearest whole share, to the product obtained by multiplying the number of Shares
purchasable immediately prior to such adjustment in the Warrant Price by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Warrant Price immediately prior to
such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Warrant Price
immediately thereafter.

                                      -7-

8. Notice of Adjustments. Whenever any Warrant Price or the kind or number of
securities issuable under this Warrant shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 7
hereof, the Company shall prepare a certificate signed by an officer of the
Company setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment,
the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was
calculated, and the Warrant Price and number or kind of shares issuable upon
exercise; of the Warrant after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall cause
copies of such certificate to be mailed (by certified or registered mail, return
receipt required, postage prepaid) within thirty (30) days of such adjustment to
the Holder of this Warrant as set forth in Section 18 hereof.

9. Transferability of Warrant. This Warrant is transferable on the books of the
Company at its principal office by the registered Holder hereof upon surrender
of this Warrant properly endorsed, subject to compliance with Section 6 and
applicable federal and state securities laws. The Company shall issue and
deliver to the transferee a new Warrant representing the Warrant so transferred.
Upon any partial transfer, the Company will issue and deliver to Holder a new
Warrant with respect to the Warrant not so transferred. Holder shall not have
any right to transfer any portion of this Warrant to any direct competitor of
the Company.

10. Registration Rights. The Company grants registration rights to the Holder of
this Warrant for any Common Stock of the Company obtained upon conversion of the
Preferred Stock in parity to the registration rights granted to other holders of
the Preferred Stock and agrees that the Holder of this Warrant shall be added as

Rights Agreement"), and that the Shares shall be made "Registrable Securities"
under the Registration Rights Agreement.

11. No Fractional Shares. No fractional share of Preferred Stock will be issued
in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such fractional share
the Company shall make a cash payment therefor upon the basis of the Warrant
Price then in effect.

12. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for shares of
Preferred Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge
to the Holder for any United States or state of the United States documentary
stamp tax or other incidental expense with respect to the issuance of such
certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and
such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Holder.

13. No Shareholder Rights Until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the
Holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the
Company prior to the exercise hereof.

14. Registry of Warrant. The Company shall maintain a registry showing the name
and address of the registered Holder of this Warrant. This Warrant may be

registry.

15. Loss Theft Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company
of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant,

                  (f)      "Restricted Stock" shall mean the Conversion Shares
and the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon exercise or conversion of
the Warrants (or upon conversion of any Preferred Securities issuable pursuant
to the Warrants), excluding any such shares which have been (a) registered under
the Securities Act pursuant to an effective registration statement filed
thereunder and disposed of in accordance with the registration statement
covering them or (b) publicly sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities
Act; provided, that for the purposes of this definition, the holder of any such

         3.       Certain Transfers

                  (a)      Notice of Proposed Transfer. Prior to any proposed
transfer of any Preferred Securities or Restricted Stock (other than under the
circumstances described in Sections 4, 5 or 6), the holder thereof shall give
written notice to the Company of its intention to effect such transfer. Each
such notice shall describe the manner of the proposed transfer and, if requested
by the Company, shall be accompanied by an opinion of counsel satisfactory to
the Company (it being agreed that Ropes & Gray LLP or Goodwin Procter LLP shall
be satisfactory) to the effect that the proposed transfer may be effected
without registration under the Securities Act, whereupon the holder of such
stock shall be entitled to transfer such

                                       2
<PAGE>

stock in accordance with the terms of its notice; provided, however, that no
such opinion of counsel shall be required for a transfer to (i) any affiliate of
such holder as defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, (ii) its partners,
shareholders, members or other equity holders, (iii) any Immediate Family member

in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144 or Rule 144A (or any other rule
permitting public sale without registration under the Securities Act) or (ii)
the opinion of counsel referred to above is to the further effect that the
transferee and any subsequent transferee (other than an affiliate of the
Company) would be entitled to transfer such securities in a public sale without
registration under the Securities Act. The restrictions provided for in this
Section 3(a) shall not apply to securities which are not required to bear the
legend prescribed by Section 3(b) in accordance with the provisions of that
Section. As used herein, "Immediate Family" shall mean any lineal ancestors or
descendants, spouse, sibling, in-laws, aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews.

                  (b)      Restrictive Legend. Each certificate representing
Preferred Securities or Restricted Stock shall, except as otherwise provided in
Section 3(a) or this Section 3(b), be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a
legend substantially in the following form:

                  "THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
                  ACT OF 1933 AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED
                  OF UNLESS IT HAS BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THAT ACT OR AN
                  EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE."

A certificate shall not bear such legend if in the opinion of counsel
satisfactory to the Company (it being agreed that Ropes & Gray LLP or Goodwin
Procter LLP shall be satisfactory) the securities represented thereby may be
publicly sold without registration under the Securities Act.

         4.       Required Registration.

                  (a)      At any time after 180 days after any registration
statement covering the initial public offering of securities of the Company
under the Securities Act shall have become effective, the holders of Senior
Securities constituting at least 50% of the total outstanding shares of
Restricted Stock then held by the holders of Senior Securities may request the
Company to register under the Securities Act all or any portion of the shares of
Restricted Stock held by such requesting holder or holders for sale in the
manner specified in such notice. For purposes of this Section 4 and Sections 5
and 6, the only securities which the Company shall be required to register
pursuant hereto shall be shares of Common Stock, provided, however, that, in any
underwritten public offering contemplated by this Section 4 or Sections 5 and 6,
the holders of Preferred Securities shall be entitled to sell such Preferred
Securities to the underwriters for conversion or exercise and sale of the shares
of Common Stock issued upon conversion or exercise thereof. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, no request may be made under this
Section 4 within 180 days after the effective date of a registration statement
filed by the Company covering a firm commitment underwritten public offering in
which the holders of Restricted Stock shall have been entitled to join pursuant
to Sections 5 or 6 and in which there shall have been effectively registered all

                                       3
<PAGE>

shares of Restricted Stock as to which registration shall have been requested.
If any registration made pursuant to this Section 4 is an underwritten offering,
then the holders of the Senior Securities holding at least 50% of the total
shares of Restricted Stock being included in the underwritten offering shall
select the underwriter, subject to the consent of the Company (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld).

                  (b)      Following receipt of any notice under this Section 4,
the Company shall immediately notify all holders of Restricted Stock from whom
notice has not been received and shall use its best efforts to register within
60 days of the initial request under the Securities Act, for public sale in
accordance with the method of disposition specified in such notice from
requesting holders, the number of shares of Restricted Stock specified in such
notice (and in all notices received by the Company from other holders within 30
days after the giving of such notice by the Company). If such method of
disposition shall be an underwritten public offering, the holders of a majority
of the shares of Restricted Stock to be sold in such offering may designate the
managing underwriter of such offering, subject to the approval of the Company,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Company shall
be obligated to register Restricted Stock pursuant to this Section 4 on two (2)
occasions only, provided, however, that such obligation shall be deemed
satisfied only when a registration statement covering all shares of Restricted
Stock specified in notices received as aforesaid for sale in accordance with the
method of disposition specified by the requesting holders shall have become
effective and, if such method of disposition is a firm commitment underwritten
public offering, all such shares shall have been sold pursuant thereto.

                  (c)      The Company shall be entitled to include in the
registration statement referred to in this Section 4, for sale in accordance
with the method of disposition specified by the requesting holders, shares of
Common Stock to be sold by the Company for its own account, except as and to the
extent that, in the opinion of the managing underwriter (if such method of
disposition shall be an underwritten public offering), such inclusion would
adversely affect the marketing of the Restricted Stock to be sold. Except for
registration statements on Form S-4, S-8 or any successor thereto, the Company
will not file with the Commission any other registration statement with respect
to its Common Stock, whether for its own account or that of other stockholders,
from the date of receipt of a notice from requesting holders pursuant to this
Section 4 until the completion of the period of distribution of the registration
contemplated thereby.

         E.       Incidental Registration. If the Company at any time (other
than pursuant to Section 4 or Section 6) proposes to register any of its
securities under the Securities Act for sale to the public, whether for its own
account or for the account of other security holders or both (except with
respect to registration statements on Forms S-4, S-8 or another form not
available for registering the Restricted Stock for sale to the public), each
such time it will give written notice to all holders of outstanding Restricted
Stock of its intention so to do. Upon the written request of any such holder,
received by the Company within 30 days after the giving of any such notice by
the Company, to register any of its Restricted Stock (which request shall state
the intended method of disposition thereof), the Company will use its best
efforts to cause the Restricted Stock as to which registration shall have been
so requested to be included in the securities to be covered by the registration
statement proposed to be filed by the Company, all to the extent requisite to
permit the sale or other disposition by the holder (in accordance with its
written request) of such Restricted Stock so registered. In the event that any
registration pursuant to this Section 5 shall be, in whole or in part, an

                                       4
<PAGE>

underwritten public offering of Common Stock, the number of shares of Restricted
Stock to be included in such an underwriting may be reduced (first by excluding
Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred holders on a pro rata basis and
second, if necessary by excluding the holders of the Senior Securities on a pro
rata basis) if and to the extent that the managing underwriter shall be of the
opinion that such inclusion would adversely affect the marketing of the
securities to be sold by the Company therein, provided, however, that such
number of shares of Restricted Stock shall not be reduced if any shares are to
be included in such underwriting for the account of any person other than the
Company or requesting holders of Restricted Stock, and provided, further,
however, that in no event may less than one-third of the total number of shares
of Common Stock to be included in such underwriting be made available for shares
of Restricted Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, the Company may
withdraw any registration statement referred to in this Section 5 without
thereby incurring any liability to the holders of Restricted Stock.

         6.       Registration on Form S-3. In addition to the rights set forth
in Section 4, if at any time (i) a holder or holders of Preferred Securities or
Restricted Stock request that the Company file a registration statement on Form
S-3 or any successor thereto for a public offering of all or any portion of the
shares of Restricted Stock held by such requesting holder or holders, the
reasonably anticipated aggregate price to the public of which would exceed
$1,000,000, which registration statement may be a shelf registration statement,
and (ii) the Company is a registrant entitled to use Form S-3 or any successor
thereto to register such shares, then the Company shall use its best efforts to
register within 30 days of such request under the Securities Act on Form S-3 or
any successor thereto, for public sale in accordance with the method of
disposition specified in such notice, the number of shares of Restricted Stock
specified in such notice. Whenever the Company is required by this Section 6 to
use its best efforts to effect the registration of Restricted Stock, each of the
procedures and requirements of Section 4 (including but not limited to the
requirement that the Company notify all holders of Restricted Stock from whom
notice has not been received and provide them with the opportunity to
participate in the offering) shall apply to such registration, provided,
however, that there shall be no limitation on the number of registrations on
Form S-3 which may be requested and obtained under this Section 6, and provided,
further, however, that the requirements contained in the first sentence of
Section 4(a) shall not apply to any registration on Form S-3 which may be
requested and obtained under this Section 6.

         7.       Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is
required by the provisions of Sections 4, 5 or 6 to use its best efforts to
effect the registration of any shares of Restricted Stock under the Securities
Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:

                  (a)      prepare and file with the Commission a registration
statement (which, in the case of an underwritten public offering pursuant to
Section 4, shall be on Form S-1 or other form of general applicability
satisfactory to the managing underwriter selected as herein provided) with
respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration
statement to become and remain effective for the period of the distribution
contemplated thereby (determined as hereinafter provided). Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Section 7(a), the Company's obligation to file a registration
statement, or cause such registration statement to become and remain effective,
shall be suspended for a period not to exceed 90 days in any 12-month period if
there exists at the time material non-public information relating to the Company
which, in the reasonable opinion of the Company, should not be disclosed and the
Company has provided the holders of Preferred Securities and Restricted Stock
with prior notice in writing of such suspension;

                                       5
<PAGE>

                  (b)      prepare and file with the Commission such amendments
and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in
connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement
effective for the period specified in paragraph (a) above and comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all
Restricted Stock covered by such registration statement in accordance with the
sellers' intended method of disposition set forth in such registration statement
for such period;

                  (c)      furnish to each seller of Restricted Stock and to
each underwriter such number of copies of the registration statement and the
prospectus included therein (including each preliminary prospectus) as such
persons reasonably may request in order to facilitate the public sale or other
disposition of the Restricted Stock covered by such registration statement;

                  (d)      use its best efforts to register or qualify the
Restricted Stock covered by such registration statement under the securities or
"blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as the sellers of Restricted Stock or, in
the case of an underwritten public offering, the managing underwriter reasonably
shall request, provided, however, that the Company shall not for any such
purpose be required to qualify generally to transact business as a foreign
corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to consent to
general service of process in any such jurisdiction;

                  (e)      use its best efforts to list the Restricted Stock
covered by such registration statement with any securities exchange on which the
Common Stock of the Company is then listed;

                  (f)      immediately notify each seller of Restricted Stock
and each underwriter under such registration statement, at any time when a
prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities
Act, of the happening of any event of which the Company has knowledge as a
result of which the prospectus contained in such registration statement, as then
in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing;

                  (g)      if the offering is underwritten and at the request of
any seller of Restricted Stock, use its best efforts to furnish on the date that
Restricted Stock is delivered to the underwriters for sale pursuant to such
registration: (i) an opinion dated such date of counsel representing the Company
for the purposes of such registration, addressed to the underwriters and to such
seller, stating that such registration statement has become effective under the
Securities Act and that (A) to the best knowledge of such counsel, no stop order
suspending the effectiveness thereof has been issued and no proceedings for that
purpose have been instituted or are pending or contemplated under the Securities
Act, (B) the registration statement, the related prospectus and each amendment
or supplement thereof comply as to form in all material respects with the
requirements of the Securities Act (except that such counsel need not express
any opinion as to financial statements contained therein) and (C) to such other
effects as reasonably may be requested by counsel for the underwriters or by
such seller or its counsel and (ii) a letter dated such date from the
independent public accountants retained by the Company, addressed to the
underwriters and to such seller, stating that they are independent public
accountants within the meaning of the Securities Act and that, in the opinion of
such accountants, the financial statements of the Company included in the
registration statement or the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement

                                       6
<PAGE>

thereof, comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable
accounting requirements of the Securities Act, and such letter shall
additionally cover such other financial matters (including information as to the
period ending no more than five business days prior to the date of such letter)
with respect to such registration as such underwriters reasonably may request;
and

                  (h)      make available for inspection by each seller of
Restricted Stock, any underwriter participating in any distribution pursuant to
such registration statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent
retained by such seller or underwriter, all financial and other records,
pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the
Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably
requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in
connection with such registration statement.

         For purposes of Section 7(a) and 7(b) and of Section 4(c), the period
of distribution of Restricted Stock in a firm commitment underwritten public
offering shall be deemed to extend until each underwriter has completed the
distribution of all securities purchased by it, and the period of distribution
of Restricted Stock in any other registration shall be deemed to extend until
the earlier of the sale of all Restricted Stock covered thereby and 180 days
after the effective date thereof.

         In connection with each registration hereunder, the sellers of
Restricted Stock will furnish to the Company in writing such information with
respect to themselves and the proposed distribution by them as reasonably shall
be necessary in order to assure compliance with federal and applicable state
securities laws.

         In connection with each registration pursuant to Sections 4, 5 or 6
covering an underwritten public offering, the Company and each seller agree to
enter into a written agreement with the managing underwriter selected in the
manner herein provided in such form and containing such provisions as are
customary in the securities business for such an arrangement between such
underwriter and companies of the Company's size and investment stature.

         8.       Expenses. All expenses incurred by the Company in complying
with Sections 4, 5 and 6, including, without limitation, all registration and
filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and
independent public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including
counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or
"blue sky" laws, fees of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.,
transfer taxes, fees of transfer agents and registrars, costs of insurance and
fees and disbursements of one counsel for the sellers of Restricted Stock, but
excluding any Selling Expenses, are called "Registration Expenses". All
underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of
Restricted Stock are called "Selling Expenses".

         The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each
registration statement under Sections 4, 5 or 6. All Selling Expenses in
connection with each registration statement under Sections 4, 5 or 6 shall be
borne by the participating sellers in proportion to the number of shares sold by
each, or by such participating sellers other than the Company (except to the
extent the Company shall be a seller) as they may agree.

         9.       Indemnification and Contribution.

                  (a)      By the Company. In the event of a registration of any
of the Restricted Stock under the Securities Act pursuant to Sections 4, 5 or 6,
the Company will indemnify

                                       7
<PAGE>

and hold harmless each seller of such Restricted Stock thereunder, each
underwriter of such Restricted Stock thereunder and each other person, if any,
who controls such seller or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities
Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to
which such seller, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under
the Securities Act 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 Restricted Stock was registered
under the Securities Act pursuant to Sections 4, 5 or 6, any preliminary
prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement
thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each such seller, each
such underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by them 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 if and to the extent that
any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so
made in conformity with information furnished by any such seller, any such
underwriter or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use in
such registration statement or prospectus.

                  (b)      By each Preferred Holder. In the event of a
registration of any of the Restricted Stock under the Securities Act pursuant to
Sections 4, 5 or 6, each seller of such Restricted Stock thereunder, severally
and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each person, if
any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, each
officer of the Company who signs the registration statement, each director of
the Company, each underwriter and each person who controls any underwriter
within the meaning of the Securities Act, against all losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such officer, director,
underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act 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 the registration statement
under which such Restricted Stock was registered under the Securities Act
pursuant to Sections 4, 5 or 6, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus
contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or
are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state, therein a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and each such officer, director,
underwriter and controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action, provided, however, that such seller will be
liable hereunder in any such case if and only to the extent that any such loss,
claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon
and in conformity with information pertaining to such seller, as such, furnished
in writing to the Company by such seller specifically for use in such
registration statement or prospectus, and provided, further, however, that the
liability of each seller hereunder shall be limited to the proportion of any
such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense which is equal to the proportion
that the public offering price of the shares sold by such seller under such
registration statement bears to the total public offering price of all
securities sold thereunder, but not in any event to exceed the proceeds received
by such seller from the sale of Restricted Stock covered by such registration
statement.

                  (c)      Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified
party hereunder of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified
party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the
indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof,
but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from
any liability which it may have to such indemnified party other than under this
Section 9 and shall only relieve it from any liability which it may have to such
indemnified party under this Section 9 if and to the extent the indemnifying
party is prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action shall be brought
against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in
and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof
with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from the
indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume and
undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to
such indemnified party under this Section 9 for any legal expenses subsequently
incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other
than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected,
provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action include both the
indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall
have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to it
which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying
party or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to
conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, the indemnified party
shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such legal
defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the
expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such
participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred.

                  (d)      Contribution. In order to provide for just and
equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case
in which either (i) any holder of Restricted Stock exercising rights under this
Agreement, or any controlling person of any such holder, makes a claim for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 9 but it is judicially determined (by
the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and
the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that
such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact
that this Section 9 provides for indemnification in such case, or, (ii)
contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any such
selling holder or any such controlling person in circumstances for which
indemnification is provided under this Section 9; then, and in each such case,
the Company and such holder will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims,
damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from
others) (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault
of the Company on the one hand and of such holder 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 or (ii)
if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable
law, in such proportion so that such holder is responsible for the portion
represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its Restricted
Stock offered by the registration statement bears to the public offering price
of all securities offered by such registration statement, and the Company is
responsible for the remaining portion; provided, however, that, in any such
case, (A) no such holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of
the public offering price of all such Restricted Stock offered by it pursuant to
such registration statement; and (B) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of
such fraudulent misrepresentation. The relative fault of the Company on the one
hand and

                                       9
<PAGE>

of such holder on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact or omission or alleged omission relates to information supplied by the
Company or such holder and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

         10.      Changes in Common Stock or Preferred Stock. If, and as often
as, there is any change in the Common Stock or the Preferred Stock by way of a
stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification, or through a
merger, consolidation, reorganization or recapitalization, or by any other
means, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the provisions hereof so that the
rights and privileges granted hereby shall continue with respect to the Common
Stock or the Preferred Stock as so changed.

         11.      Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the
benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may at any
time permit the sale of the Restricted Stock to the public without registration,
at all times after 90 days after any registration statement covering a public
offering of securities of the Company under the Securities Act shall have become
effective, the Company agrees to:

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

                  (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; and

                  (c)      furnish to each holder of Restricted Stock forthwith
upon request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the
reporting requirements of such Rule 144 and of the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the
Company, and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company as such
holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of
the Commission allowing such holder to sell any Restricted Stock without
registration.

         12.      Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company
represents and warrants to you as follows:

                  (a)      The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement by the Company have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate
action and will not violate any provision of law, any order of any court or
other agency of government, the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended to
date, or By-laws of the Company or any provision of any indenture, agreement or
other instrument to which it or any or its properties or assets is bound,
conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with due notice or lapse of
time or both) a default under any such indenture, agreement or other instrument
or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance of
any nature whatsoever upon any of the properties or assets of the Company.

                  (b)      This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered
by the Company and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

                  (a)      Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements
contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto shall
bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the
parties hereto (including without limitation transferees of any Preferred
Securities or Restricted Stock), whether so expressed or not, provided, however,
that registration rights conferred herein on the holders of Preferred Securities
or Restricted Stock shall only inure to the benefit of a transferee of Preferred
Securities or Restricted Stock if (i) there is transferred to such transferee at
least 20% of the total shares of Restricted Stock originally issued pursuant to
the respective purchase agreement under which such shares of Restricted Stock
were originally purchased, to the direct or indirect transferor of such
transferee or (ii) such transferee is a partner, shareholder or affiliate of a
party hereto; provided further that such transferee agrees in writing to be
bound by all terms and conditions of this Agreement.

         If to any subsequent holder of Preferred Securities or Restricted
Stock:

at such address as may have been furnished to the Company in writing by such
holder; or, in any such case, at such other address or addresses as shall have
been furnished in writing to the Company (in the case of a holder of Preferred
Securities or Restricted Stock) or to the holders of Preferred Securities or
Restricted Stock (in the case of the Company) in accordance with the provisions
of this paragraph.

                  (c)      Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
without reference to conflicts or choice of law provisions thereof.

                  (d)      Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended
or modified, and no provision hereof may be waived, without the written consent
of the Company and the holders of at least 75% of the outstanding shares of
Restricted Stock, acting together as a single class.

                  (e)      Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two
or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of
which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

                  (f)      Termination of Registration Rights. The obligations
of the Company to register shares of Restricted Stock under Sections 4, 5 or 6
shall terminate on the eleventh anniversary of the date of this Agreement.

                  (g)      "Lock-Up" Agreement. If requested in writing by the
underwriters for the initial underwritten public offering of securities of the
Company, each holder of Restricted Stock who is a party to this Agreement shall
agree not to sell publicly any shares of Restricted Stock or any other shares of
Common Stock (other than shares of Restricted Stock or other shares of Common
Stock being registered in such offering), without the consent of such
underwriters, for a period of not more than 180 days following the effective
date of the registration statement relating to such offering; provided, however,
that all persons entitled to registration rights with respect to shares of
Common Stock who are not parties to this Agreement, all other persons selling
shares of Common Stock in such offering, all persons holding in excess of 1% of
the capital stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis and all executive
officers and directors of the Company shall also have agreed not to sell
publicly their Common Stock under the circumstances and pursuant to the terms
set forth in this Section 13(g).

                  (h)      Subsequent Registration Rights. The Company shall not
grant to any third party any registration rights, except in connection with a
new equity financing, and in such case, such registration rights shall not be
more favorable than any of those contained herein, so long as any of the
registration rights under this Agreement remain in effect.

                  (i)      Severability. If any provision of this Agreement
shall be held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such illegality,
invalidity or unenforceability shall attach only to such provision and shall not
in any manner affect or render illegal, invalid or unenforceable any other
provision of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be carried out as if any
such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision were not contained herein.

                  (j)      Injunctive Relief. Each of the parties acknowledge
that any breach of this Agreement by any one of them will cause irreparable harm
to the other parties thereto

                                       13
<PAGE>

and that in the event of such breach, the parties hereto shall be entitled, in
addition to monetary damages and to any other remedies available under this
Agreement and at law, to equitable relief, including injunctive relief.

                  (k)      Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the
other Related Agreements (as defined in the Series K Purchase Agreement),
embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior oral or written
agreements and understanding relating to the subject matter hereof, including,
without limitation, the Old Registration Rights Agreement. No statement,
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of any kind not expressly set
forth in this Agreement shall affect, or be used to interpret, change or
restrict, the express terms and provisions of this Agreement.

                  (l)      Captions. The captions of the sections, subsections
and paragraphs of this Agreement have been added for convenience only and shall
not be deemed to be a part of this Agreement.
