occur any stop order or suspension of the effectiveness of any Registration
Statement for an aggregate of thirty (30)Trading Days during the Commitment
Period for any reason (other than deferrals or suspension during a permitted
Blackout Period in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement), as a
result of corporate developments subsequent to the Effective Date that would
require such Registration Statement to be amended to reflect such event in order
to maintain its compliance with the disclosure requirements of the Securities
Act or (b) the Company shall at any time fail to comply with the requirements of
Section 6.3, 6.4, or 6.6 and such failure shall continue for more than thirty
(30) days.

Trading Days following any Closing Date, the Company gives a Blackout Notice to
Investor of a Blackout Period as defined in, and in accordance with the
Registration Rights Agreement, and (b) the Bid Price on the Trading Day
immediately preceding such Blackout Period ("OLD BID PRICE") is greater than the
Bid Price on the first Trading Day following such Blackout Period that Investor
may sell its Registrable Securities pursuant to an effective Registration
Statement ("NEW BID PRICE"), then the Company shall issue to Investor the number
of additional shares of Registrable Securities (the "BLACKOUT SHARES") equal to
the difference between (i) the product of (a) the number of Put Shares held by
Investor immediately prior to the Blackout Period that were issued on the most
recent Closing Date(the "REMAINING PUT SHARES")times the Old Bid Price, divided
by (b) the New Bid Price, and (ii) the Remaining Put Shares. [Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company shall be under no obligation to issue Blackout Shares
to the extent that the number of Put Shares and Blackout Shares issued pursuant
to this Agreement shall exceed the result of the total Investment Amount
invested by the Investor pursuant to this Agreement divided by the current par
value of the Common Stock. The Company and the Investor covenant and agree that
the Investment Amount is the consideration paid for the Put Shares and the
Blackout Shares. The Company covenants and agrees that it will not without the
prior written consent of the Investor increase the par value of its Common Stock
until 90 days after the end of the Commitment Period.

issue and deliver Put Shares equal to or exceeding the Minimum Commitment Amount
during the 36 month period commencing on the date hereof, or if the Investor
lawfully terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.4, then on the first
Trading Day after the expiration of the Commitment Period or such termination,
as the case may be, the Company shall issue to the Investor a Warrant to
purchase fifty thousand (50,000) shares of Common Stock at $.35 per share,
substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F. In addition to any
"piggy-back" registration rights contained therein, the shares underlying such
Warrant shall be deemed Registrable Securities under the Registration Rights
Agreement annexed hereto.

         Section 2.7 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. Each of the Company and Investor
acknowledge and agree that the warrant issuable under Section 2.6 and the
requirement to issue Blackout Shares under Section 2.5 shall give rise to
liquidated damages and not penalties. Each of the Company and Investor further
acknowledge that (a) the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred is
incapable or is difficult to precisely estimate, (b) the amounts specified in
such Sections bear a reasonable proportion and are not plainly or grossly
disproportionate to the probable loss likely to be incurred by Investor in
connection with the failure by the Company to make Puts with aggregate Purchase
Prices totaling at least the Minimum Commitment Amount or in connection with a
Blackout Period under the Registration Rights Agreement, and (c) each of the
Company and Investor are sophisticated business parties and have been
represented by sophisticated and able legal and financial counsel and negotiated
this Agreement at arm's length.

use its best efforts to obtain shareholder approval as required under the
District of Columbia Business Corporation Act to increase the number of shares
of Common Stock it is authorized to issue, in order to meet all of its
obligations to issue Put Shares and Blackout Shares (if any) under this
Agreement. In no circumstances shall the Company issue a Put Notice requiring
Investor to purchase more shares of Common Stock than the Company has authority
to issue based upon the then number of shares of Common Stock outstanding or
reserved for issuance. The number of shares so reserved from time to time, may
be reduced by the number of shares actually delivered hereunder. The foregoing
is not intended as a limitation on the obligations of the Company to issue
shares pursuant to this Agreement subsequent to obtaining any necessary
shareholder authorizations and the filing of all necessary amendments to the
Articles of Incorporation in connection therewith.

any other Principal Market, include in such application the Put Shares and the
Blackout Shares, if any, and shall take such other action as is necessary or
desirable in the reasonable opinion of Investor to cause the Common Stock to be
listed on such other Principal Market as promptly as possible. The Company shall
use its commercially reasonable efforts to continue the listing and trading of

         Section 6.12 DILUTION. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable as
Put Shares may increase substantially in certain circumstances, including, but
not necessarily limited to, the circumstance wherein the trading price of the
Common Stock declines during the period between the Effective Date and the end
of the Commitment Period. The Company's executive officers and directors have
studied and fully understand the nature of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and recognize that they have a potential dilutive effect. The board of
directors of the Company has concluded, in its good faith business judgment that
such issuance is in the best interests of the Company. The Company specifically
acknowledges that any obligation to issue the Put Shares is binding upon the
Company and enforceable regardless of the dilution such issuance may have on the
ownership interests of other shareholders of the Company.

         Section 6.13 USE OF PROCEEDS. The Company will not use in excess of Two
Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) of the proceeds received hereunder

         Section 6.14 CERTAIN AGREEMENTS. (i) The Company covenants and agrees
that it will not, without the prior written consent of the Investor, during the
sixty (60) days prior to, or subsequent to each Closing Date, enter into any
offer or sale of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (collectively, "New
Common Stock") with any third party pursuant to a transaction which in any
manner permits the sale of the New Common Stock below the average Bid Price for
the 3 Trading days prior to the closing of any sale, or other issuance of New
Common Stock.

                  (ii) In the event the Company breaches the provisions of this
Section, the Company shall issue to the Investor that number of additional
shares of Registrable Securities equal to the difference between (a) the product
of (1) the number of Put Shares otherwise issuable pursuant to a Put Notice
delivered with respect to the Closing Date with respect to which there has been
a breach of the provisions of this Section, if the breach occurred prior to the
Closing Date, or the number of Put Shares held of record by the Investor
immediately prior to the date of a breach of the provisions of this Section that
were issued on the Closing Date with respect to which there has been a breach of
this Section, if the breach occurred after the Closing Date (in either such
case, the "Relevant Shares"), times the Initial Purchase Price, divided by (2)
the product of (X) the Initial Purchase Price and (Y) 1 minus the Subsequent
Discount, and (b) the Relevant Shares.

         Section 6.15 RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL (i) Subject to the provisions of
this paragraph, if at any time prior to fifteen months following the date hereof
the Company offers to enter into any transaction for the sale of Common Stock,
or securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, at a price below
the then current market price (a "New Transaction"), then before consummating
the New Transaction, the Company shall give written notice (a "New Transaction
Notice") to the Investor summarizing all of the terms of such offer (a "New
Transaction Offer"). The Investor shall have the right (the "Right of First
Refusal"), exercisable by written notice given to the Company by the close of
business on the twentieth day after the Investor's receipt of the New
Transaction Offer (the "Right of First Refusal Expiration Date"), to participate
in all, but not less than all, of the New Transaction Offer on the terms so
specified.
                  (ii) If, and only if, the Investor does not exercise the Right
of First Refusal, the Company may consummate the New Transaction on the terms
specified in the New Transaction Offer.

                  (iii) If the terms of the New Transaction to be consummated
differ from the terms specified in the New Transaction Offer so that the terms
are more beneficial in any respect, the Company shall give the Investor a New
Transaction Offer relating to the terms of the New Transaction, as so changed,
and the Investor's Right of First Refusal and the preceding terms of this
Section 6.15 shall apply with respect to such changed terms.

                  (iv) In the event the New Transaction is consummated with such
other third party on terms providing for either a sale price equal to or
computed based on, or a determination of a conversion price based on, a lower
percentage of the then current market price (howsoever defined or computed) or a
lower market price (howsoever defined or computed) then the Initial Purchase
Price shall be modified to reduce the relevant Initial Discount exercise price
to be equal to that provided in the New Transaction as so consummated.

acknowledges that, except to the extent specifically provided herein or in any
of the other Transaction Documents (but limited in each instance to the extent
so specified), the Investor retains the right (but is not otherwise obligated)
to buy, sell, engage in hedging transactions or otherwise trade in the
securities of the Company, including, but not necessarily limited to, the
Securities, at any time before, contemporaneous with or after the execution of
this Agreement or from time to time and in any manner whatsoever permitted by
applicable federal and state securities laws.

The representations and warranties of the Company shall be true and correct in
all material respects as of each Condition Satisfaction Date as though made at
each such time (except for representations and warranties specifically made as

circumstances occurring or existing to and including each Condition Satisfaction
Date, except for any conditions which have temporarily caused any
representations or warranties herein to be incorrect and which have been
corrected with no Material Adverse Effect.

                  (d) PERFORMANCE BY THE COMPANY. The Company shall have

                  (f) ADVERSE CHANGES. Since the date of filing of the Company's
most recent SEC Document, no event that had or is reasonably likely to have a

                  (g) NO SUSPENSION OF TRADING IN OR DELISTING OF COMMON STOCK.

                  (h) LEGAL OPINIONS. The Company shall have caused to be
delivered to the Investor, at the initial Closing under this Agreement, an
opinion of the Company's independent counsel in the form of Exhibit C-1 hereto,
addressed to the Investor, and at each subsequent Closing a supplemental opinion
of the Company's independent counsel in the form of Exhibit C-2 hereto,
addressed to the Investor. If a Put Notice shall have been delivered in good
faith without knowledge by the Company that an opinion of independent counsel
can not be delivered as required, at the option of the Investor, either the
applicable Closing Date shall automatically be postponed for a period of up to
five (5) Trading Days until such an opinion is delivered to the Investor, or

beneficially owned by Investor, would result in Investor owning no more than
9.9% of all of such Common Stock as would be outstanding on such Closing Date,

regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 7.2(j), in the
event that the amount of Common Stock outstanding as determined in accordance
with Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder

associated with such Closing Date is given, the amount of Common Stock
outstanding on such Closing Date shall govern for purposes of determining
whether Investor, when aggregating all purchases of Common Stock made pursuant
to this Agreement would own more than 9.9% of the Common Stock following such
Closing Date.

                  (k) NO KNOWLEDGE. The Company shall have no knowledge of any

which such Notice is deemed delivered).

                                       32
<PAGE>

                  (l) CHANGE OF CONTROL. No event required to be reported
pursuant to Item 1 of Form 8-K shall have occurred, as determined by the filing

written consent of the Investor.

since the immediately preceding Put Date.

                  (n) SHAREHOLDER VOTE. The issuance of shares of Common Stock

occurred.

                  (p) CROSS DEFAULT. The Company shall not be in default of a
material term, covenant, warranty or undertaking of any other agreement to which
the Company and the Investor are parties, nor shall there have occurred an event
of default on the part of the Company] under any such other agreement.

                  (q) ESCROW AGREEMENT. The parties hereto shall have entered
into an Escrow Agreement in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit G and the Company
shall have agreed to pay the fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent and not be in
default of any such payments.

have received and been reasonably satisfied with such other certificates and
documents as shall have been reasonably requested by Investor in order for

         Section 7.3 DUE DILIGENCE REVIEW; NON-DISCLOSURE OF NON-PUBLIC
INFORMATION.

                  (a) The Company shall make available for inspection and review
by Investor, advisors to and representatives of Investor (who may or may not be
affiliated with Investor and who are reasonably acceptable to the Company),and
any Underwriter, any Registration Statement or amendment or supplement thereto
or any blue sky, NASD or other filing, all financial and other records, all SEC
Documents and other filings with the SEC, and all other corporate documents and
properties of the Company as may be reasonably necessary for the purpose of such
review, and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all
such information reasonably requested by Investor or any such representative,
advisor or Underwriter in connection with such Registration Statement, at the
Investor's expense (including, without limitation, in response to all questions
and other inquiries reasonably made or submitted by any of them), prior to and
from time to time after the filing and effectiveness of such Registration
Statement for the sole purpose of enabling Investor and such representatives,
advisors and Underwriters and their respective accountants and attorneys to
conduct initial and ongoing due diligence with respect to the Company and the
accuracy of such Registration Statement.

                  (b) Except as provided in Section 7.3(a) and (c), each of the
Company, its officers, directors, employees and agents has not to date, and
shall in no event disclose non-public information to Investor, advisors to or
representatives of Investor, unless prior to disclosure of such information, the
Company identifies in writing such information as being non-public information
and provides Investor, such advisors and representatives with the opportunity to
accept or refuse to accept, in writing, such non-public information for review.
The Company may, as a condition to disclosing any non-public information
hereunder, require Investor's advisors and representatives to enter into a
confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Company and Investor.

<PAGE>

                  (c) Nothing herein shall require the Company to disclose
non-public information to Investor or its advisors or representatives, and the
Company represents that it does not disseminate non-public information to any
investors who purchase stock in the Company in a public offering, to money
managers or to securities analysts; provided, however, that notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall, as hereinabove provided,
immediately notify the advisors and representatives of Investor and any
Underwriters of any event or the existence of any circumstance(without any
obligation to disclose the specific event or circumstance) of which it becomes
aware, constituting non-public information (whether or not requested of the
Company specifically or generally during the course of due diligence by such
persons or entities), which, if not disclosed in the prospectus included in a
Registration Statement would cause such prospectus to include a material
misstatement or to omit a material fact required to be stated therein in order
to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were
made, not misleading. Nothing contained in this Section 7.3 shall be construed
to mean that such persons or entities other than Investor (without the written
consent of Investor prior to disclosure of such information) may not obtain
non-public information in the course of conducting due diligence in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and nothing herein shall prevent
any such persons or entities from notifying the Company of their opinion that
based on such due diligence by such persons or entities, any Registration
Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits a material
fact required to be stated in such Registration Statement or necessary to make
the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances in which they
were made, not misleading.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                     LEGENDS

                  Section 8.1 NO LEGENDS. As soon as practicable after the
execution and delivery hereof and prior to delivery of the initial Put Notice,
the Company shall issue to the Transfer Agent, and have duly accepted by such
Transfer Agent (or any successor thereto) the Transfer Agent Instructions in
substantially the form of Exhibit E hereto. Such instructions shall be
irrevocable by the Company from and after the date thereof or from and after the
issuance thereof except as otherwise expressly provided in the Registration

                                       35
<PAGE>

Rights Agreement. It is the intent and purpose of such instructions, as provided
therein, to require the Transfer Agent to issue to Investor certificates
evidencing shares of Common Stock incident to a Closing (free of any restrictive
legend, stop transfer instructions or other restrictions without further
consultation by the transfer agent with the Company or its counsel and without
the need for any further advice or instruction or documentation to the Transfer
Agent by or from the Company or its counsel or Investor); provided that (a) a
Registration Statement shall then be effective, (b) Investor confirms to the
Transfer Agent and the Company that it has or intends to sell such Common Stock
to a third party which is not an affiliate of Investor or the Company and
Investor agrees to redeliver the certificate representing such shares of Common
Stock to the Transfer Agent to add an appropriate legend in the event the Common
Stock is not sold, and (c) if reasonably requested by the Transfer Agent or the
Company, Investor confirms to the transfer agent and the Company that Investor
has complied with the prospectus delivery requirement under the Securities Act.

         Section 8.2 NO OTHER LEGEND OR STOCK TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS. No
restrictive legend other than the as specified in Section 8.1 or the Transfer
Agent Instructions has been or shall be placed on the share certificates
representing the Common Stock and no instructions or "stop transfers orders," so
called, "stock transfer restrictions," or other restrictions have been or shall
be given to the Company's transfer agent with respect thereto other than as
expressly set forth in this Article VIII. The Company will authorize its
transfer agent to give information relating to the Company directly to the
Investor or the Investor's representatives upon the request of the Investor or
any such representative , to the extent such information relates to (i) the
status of shares of Common Stock issued or claimed to be issued to the Investor
in connection with a Notice of Conversion, or (ii) the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock of all stockholders as of a current or other specified
date. The Company will provide the Investor with a copy of the authorization so
given to the transfer agent.

         Section 8.3 INVESTOR'S COMPLIANCE. Nothing in this Article VIII shall
affect in any way Investor's obligations under any agreement to comply with all
applicable securities laws upon resale of the Common Stock.

                                       36

         Section 8.4 If, by the relevant Closing Date, the Company fails for any
reason to deliver the Put Shares, and after such Closing Date, the Investor
purchases, in an arm's-length open market transaction or otherwise, shares of
Common Stock (the "Covering Shares") in order to make delivery in satisfaction
of a sale of Common Stock by the Investor (the "Sold Shares"), which delivery
the Investor anticipated to make using the Put Shares to be issued (a "Buy-In"),
the Investor shall have the right, to require the Company to pay to the
Investor, in addition to the amounts due under Section 8.5 hereof (but in
addition to all other amounts contemplated in other provisions of the
Transaction Documents, and not in lieu of any such other amounts), the Buy-In
Adjustment Amount (as defined below). The "Buy-In Adjustment Amount" is the
amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the Investor's total purchase price
(including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Covering Shares over (y) the
net proceeds (after brokerage commissions, if any) received by the Investor from
the sale of the Sold Shares. The Company shall pay the Buy-In Adjustment Amount
to the Investor in immediately available funds immediately upon demand by the
Investor. By way of illustration and not in limitation of the foregoing, if the
Investor purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price
(including brokerage commissions) of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to
shares of Common Stock it sold for net proceeds of $10,000, the Buy-In
Adjustment Amount which Company will be required to pay to the Investor will be
$1,000.

         Section 8.5 DELAY. The Company understands that a delay in the issuance
of the Put Shares beyond the Closing Date could result in economic loss to
Investor and the Investor understands that a delay in payment of the Investment
Amount beyond the Closing Date could result in economic loss to the Company. On
and after the Effective Date as compensation to Investor or the Company, as the
case may be, for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payments to Investor
for late issuance of Put Shares and the Investor agrees to pay late payments to
the Company for late payment of the Investment Amount in accordance with the
following schedule (where "NO. OF DAYS LATE" is defined as the number of days
beyond the Closing Date):

            8                                  $800
            9                                  $900
           10                                  $1,000
          >10                                  $1,000 +$200 for each Business
                                                        Day Late beyond 10 days

The Company and the Investor, as the case may be, shall pay any payments
incurred under this Section 8.5 in immediately available funds upon demand.
Nothing herein shall limit Investor's right to pursue actual damages for the
Company's failure to issue and deliver the Put Shares to Investor or the
Company's right to pursue actual damages for the Investor's failure to pay the
Investment Amount to the Company, except to the extent that such late payments
shall constitute payment for and offset any such actual damages alleged by
Investor or the Company, as the case may be, and, in the case of the Investor,
any Buy In Adjustment Amount (as defined above).

         Section 9.2  INDEMNIFICATION.

                  (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Investor
and its officers, directors, employees, and agents, and each Person or entity,
if any, who controls Investor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, together with the Indemnified Persons (as
defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) from and against any Damages,
joint or several, and any action in respect thereof to which Investor, its
partners, affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and duly authorized
agents, and any such Indemnified Person becomes subject to, resulting from,
arising out of or relating to any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or
nonfulfillment of or failure to perform any covenant or agreement on the part of
Company contained in this Agreement, as such Damages are incurred, except to the
extent such Damages result primarily from Investor's failure to perform any
covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or Investor's or its officers,
directors, employees, agents or Indemnified Person negligence, recklessness or
bad faith in performing its obligations under this Agreement.

                  (b) If (i) the Investor becomes involved in any capacity in
any action, proceeding or investigation brought by any stockholder of the
Company, in connection with or as a result of the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or if the Investor is impleaded in
any such action, proceeding or investigation by any person, or (ii) the Investor
becomes involved in any capacity in any action, proceeding or investigation
brought by the Securities and Exchange Commission, any self-regulatory
organization or other body having jurisdiction, against or involving the Company
or in connection with or as a result of the consummation of the transactions

                                       40
<PAGE>

contemplated by this Agreement, or if the Investor is impleaded in any such
action, proceeding or investigation by any person, then in any such case, the
Company hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Investor from
and against and in respect of all losses, claims, liabilities, damages or
expenses resulting from, imposed upon or incurred by the Investor, directly or
indirectly, and reimburse such Investor for its reasonable legal and other
expenses (including the cost of any investigation and preparation) incurred in
connection therewith, as such expenses are incurred. In addition, the Company
will reimburse the Investor for reasonable internal and overhead costs for the
time of any officers or employees of the Investor devoted to appearing and
preparing to appear as witnesses, assisting in preparation for hearings, trials
or pretrial matters, or otherwise with respect to inquiries, hearing, trials,
and other proceedings relating to the subject matter of this Agreement. The
indemnification and reimbursement obligations of the Company under this
paragraph shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise
have (other than matters specifically addressed in the Registration Rights
Agreement, which shall be governed solely by that agreement), shall extend upon
the same terms and conditions to any affiliates of the Investor who are actually
named in such action, proceeding or investigation, and partners, directors,
agents, employees and Indemnified Person (if any), as the case may be, of the
Investor and any such affiliate, and shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the
Company, the Investor, any such affiliate and any such person. The Company also
agrees that neither the Investor nor any such affiliate, partner, director,
agent, employee or controlling person shall have any liability to the Company or
any person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of the Company in
connection with or as a result of the consummation of this Agreement.

         Section 9.3 METHOD OF ASSERTING INDEMNIFICATION CLAIMS. All claims for
indemnification by any Indemnified Party (as defined below) under Section 9.2
shall be asserted and resolved as follows:

                                       41
<PAGE>

                  (a) In the event any claim or demand in respect of which any
person claiming indemnification under any provision of Section 9.2 (an
"INDEMNIFIED PARTY") might seek indemnity under Section 9.2 is asserted against
or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a person other than a
party hereto or an affiliate thereof (a "THIRD PARTY CLAIM"), the Indemnified
Party shall deliver a written notification, enclosing a copy of all papers
served, if any, and specifying the nature of and basis for such Third Party
Claim and for the Indemnified Party's claim for indemnification that is being
asserted under any provision of Section 9.2 against any person (the
"INDEMNIFYING PARTY"), together with the amount or, if not then reasonably
ascertainable, the estimated amount, determined in good faith, of such Third
Party Claim (a "CLAIM NOTICE") with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying
Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to provide the Claim Notice with
reasonable promptness after the Indemnified Party receives notice of such Third
Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to indemnify the
Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim to the extent that the
Indemnifying Party's ability to defend has been prejudiced by such failure of
the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party
as soon as practicable within the period ending thirty (30) calendar days
following receipt by the Indemnifying Party of either a Claim Notice or an
Indemnity Notice (as defined below) (the "DISPUTE PERIOD") whether the
Indemnifying Party disputes its liability or the amount of its liability to the
Indemnified Party under Section 9.2 and whether the Indemnifying Party desires,
at its sole cost and expense, to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third
Party Claim.

                  (i)If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party
                  within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party desires
                  to defend the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third
                  Party Claim pursuant to this Section 9.3(a), then the
                  Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend, with
                  counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, at
                  the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, such
                  Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which
                  proceedings shall be vigorously and diligently prosecuted by

                                       42
<PAGE>

                  the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or will be
                  settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party (but only
                  with the consent of the Indemnified Party in the case of any
                  settlement that provides for any relief other than the payment
                  of monetary damages or that provides for the payment of
                  monetary damages as to which the Indemnified Party shall not
                  be indemnified in full pursuant to Section 9.2). The
                  Indemnifying Party shall have full control of such defense and
                  proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof;
                  provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may, at the sole
                  cost and expense of the Indemnified Party, at any time prior
                  to the Indemnifying Party's delivery of the notice referred to
                  in the first sentence of this clause (i), file any motion,
                  answer or other pleadings or take any other action that the
                  Indemnified Party reasonably believes to be necessary or
                  appropriate protect its interests; and provided further, that
                  if requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party
                  will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party,
                  provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnifying Party in
                  contesting any Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party
                  elects to contest. The Indemnified Party may participate in,
                  but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third Party
                  Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this
                  clause (i), and except as provided in the preceding sentence,
                  the Indemnified Party shall bear its own costs and expenses
                  with respect to such participation. Notwithstanding the
                  foregoing, the Indemnified Party may takeover the control of
                  the defense or settlement of a Third Party Claim at any time
                  if it irrevocably waives its right to indemnity under Section
                  9.2 with respect to such Third Party Claim.

                  (ii) If the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified
                  Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party
                  desires to defend the Third Party Claim pursuant to Section
                  9.3(a)(i), or if the Indemnifying Party gives such notice but
                  fails to prosecute vigorously and diligently or settle the
                  Third Party Claim, or if the Indemnifying Party fails to give
                  any notice whatsoever within the Dispute Period, then the
                  Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, at the sole
                  cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Third Party

                                       43
<PAGE>

                  Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall
                  be prosecuted by the Indemnified Party in a reasonable manner
                  and in good faith or will be settled at the discretion of the
                  Indemnified Party(with the consent of the Indemnifying Party,
                  which consent will not be unreasonably withheld). The
                  Indemnified Party will have full control of such defense and
                  proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof;
                  provided, however, that if requested by the Indemnified Party,
                  the Indemnifying Party will, at the sole cost and expense of
                  the Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to the
                  Indemnified Party and its counsel in contesting any Third
                  Party Claim which the Indemnified Party is contesting.
                  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (ii),
                  if the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party
                  within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party disputes
                  its liability or the amount of its liability hereunder to the
                  Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim and
                  if such dispute is resolved in favor of the Indemnifying Party
                  in the manner provided in clause(iii) below, the Indemnifying
                  Party will not be required to bear the costs and expenses of
                  the Indemnified Party's defense pursuant to this clause (ii)
                  or of the Indemnifying Party's participation therein at the
                  Indemnified Party's request, and the Indemnified Party shall
                  reimburse the Indemnifying Party in full for all reasonable
                  costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party in
                  connection with such litigation. The Indemnifying Party may
                  participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement
                  controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this clause
                  (ii), and the Indemnifying Party shall bear its own costs and
                  expenses with respect to such participation.

                   (iii) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified
                  Party that it does not dispute its liability or the amount of
                  its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to the
                  Third Party Claim under Section 9.2 or fails to notify the
                  Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the
                  Indemnifying Party disputes its liability or the amount of its
                  liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third

                                       44
<PAGE>

                  Party Claim, the amount of Damages specified in the Claim
                  Notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the
                  Indemnifying Party under Section 9.2 and the Indemnifying
                  Party shall pay the amount of such Damages to the Indemnified
                  Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed
                  its liability or the amount of its liability with respect to
                  such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party
                  shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such
                  dispute; provided, however, that it the dispute is not
                  resolved within thirty (30) days after the Claim Notice, the
                  Indemnifying Party shall be enlisted to institute such legal
                  action as it deems appropriate.

                  (b) In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim
under Section 9.2 against the Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third
Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall deliver a written notification of a
claim for indemnity under Section 9.2 specifying the nature of and basis for
such claim, together with the amount or, if not then reasonably ascertainable,
the estimated amount, determined in good faith, of such claim (an "INDEMNITY
NOTICE") with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. The failure by
any Indemnified Party to give the Indemnity Notice shall not impair such party's
rights hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates
that it has been irreparably prejudiced thereby. If the Indemnifying Party
notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute the claim or the amount
of the claim described in such Indemnity Notice or fails to notify the
Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party
disputes the claim or the amount of the claim described in such Indemnity
Notice, the amount of Damages specified in the Indemnity Notice will be
conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under Section 9.2 and
the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Damages to the Indemnified
Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability or
the amount of its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party
and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution
of such dispute; provided, however, that it the dispute is not resolved within
thirty (30) days after the Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall be
enlisted to institute such legal action as it deems appropriate.

                  (c) The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in
addition to (i) any cause of action or similar rights of the indemnified party
against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the
indemnifying party may be subject to.

consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts whose districts
encompass any part of the City of New York or the state courts of the State of
New York sitting in the City of New York in connection with any dispute arising

the instruments referenced herein contain the entire understanding of the
Company and Investor with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and,
except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company nor

of the Company and Investor agrees to pay its own expenses in connection with
the preparation of this Agreement and performance of its obligations hereunder,

         Section 10.8 NO BROKERS. Each of the Company and Investor represents

Investor harmless from any and all liabilities to any persons claiming brokerage
commissions or finder's fees on account of services purported to have been
rendered in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby.

         Section 10.9 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in multiple
counterparts, each of which may be executed by less than all of the Company and
shall be deemed to be an original instrument which shall be enforceable against
the parties actually executing such counterparts and all of which together shall

party, may be delivered to the other parties hereto by facsimile transmission of
a copy of this Agreement bearing the signature of the parties so delivering this
Agreement.

         Section 10.10 SURVIVAL; SEVERABILITY. The representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements of the Company hereto shall survive each Closing
hereunder for a period of one (1) year thereafter. In the event that any
provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent

in full force and effect without said provision; provided that such severability
shall be ineffective if it materially changes the economic benefit of this
Agreement to any party.

         Section 10.11 FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each party shall do and perform, or
cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall

         Section 10.12 NO STRICT CONSTRUCTION. The language used in this
Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express
their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against
any party.

         Section 10.13 EQUITABLE RELIEF. The Company recognizes that in the
event that it fails to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its
obligations under this Agreement, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate
relief to Investor. The Company therefore agrees that Investor shall be entitled
to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the
necessity of proving actual damages.

         Section 10.14 TITLE AND SUBTITLES. The titles and subtitles used in
this Agreement are used for the convenience of reference and are not to be
considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.

         Section 10.16 PUBLICITY. The Company and Investor shall consult with
each other in issuing any press releases or otherwise making public statements
with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and no party shall issue
any such press release or otherwise make any such public statement without the
prior written consent of the other parties, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, except that no prior consent shall be required
if such disclosure is required by law, in which such case the disclosing party
shall provide the other parties with prior notice of such public statement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name
of Investor without the prior written consent of such Investor, except to the
extent required by law. Investor acknowledges that this Agreement and all or
part of the Transaction Documents may be deemed to be "material contracts" as

                                       49
<PAGE>

that term is defined by Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K, and that the Company
may therefore be required to file such documents as exhibits to reports or
registration statements filed under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.
Investor further agrees that the status of such documents and materials as
material contracts shall be determined solely by the Company, in consultation
with its counsel.

         Section 10.17 JURY TRIAL WAIVER. The Company and the Investor hereby
waive a trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by
either of the parties hereto against the other in respect of any matter arising
out of or in connection with the Transaction Documents.

                                    Recitals

     WHEREAS, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Private Equity
Agreement ("Equity Agreement"), between the Investor and the Company, the
Company has agreed to issue and sell to the Investor and the Investor has agreed
to purchase up to Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) of the common stock of the
Company, par value$.00025 per share (the "Common Stock")(such shares of Common
Stock, the "Subscribed Shares"), and

     WHEREAS, to induce the Investor to execute and deliver the Equity
Agreement, the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations
thereunder, or any similar successor statute (collectively, "Securities Act"),
and applicable state securities laws with respect to the Subscribed Shares;

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

     1.       DEFINITIONS.

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

     (i) "Potential Material Event" means any of the following: (a) the
possession by the Company of material information not ripe for disclosure in a
Registration Statement, which shall be evidenced by a determination in good
faith by the Board of Directors of the Company that disclosure of such
information in the Registration Statement would be detrimental to the business
and affairs of the Company, or (b) any material engagement or activity by the
Company which would, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors
of the Company, be adversely affected by disclosure in a Registration Statement
at such time, which determination shall be accompanied by a good faith
determination by the Board of Directors of the Company that the Registration
Statement would be materially misleading absent the inclusion of such
information.

     (ii) "Subscription Date" means the date of this Agreement.

     (iii) "Investor", has the meaning set forth in the preamble to this
Agreement.

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

<PAGE>

     (v) "Registrable Securities" means the Subscribed Shares. and the Warrant
Shares issuable pursuant to Section 2.6 of the Equity Agreement.

     (vi) "Registration Statement" means a registration statement of the Company

defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Equity
Agreement or in the Rules of the SEC.

     2.       REGISTRATION.

     (a) MANDATORY REGISTRATION. The Company shall prepare and file with the
SEC, at such time after the Subscription Date as it shall determine in its
discretion, a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (if use of such form is then
available to the Company pursuant to the rules of the SEC and, if not, on such
form promulgated by the SEC for which the Company then qualifies and which
counsel for the Company shall deem appropriate for the offering of the
Registrable Securities), registering for distribution by the Investor, pursuant
to Rule 457(o), if permitted, no less than 112% of the Maximum Commitment Amount
under the Equity Agreement (the "Initial Registrable Securities"). Such
Registration Statement shall state that, in accordance with Rules 416 and 457
under the Securities Act, it also covers such indeterminate number of additional
shares of Common Stock as may become issuable to prevent dilution resulting from
stock splits, or stock dividends.

     (b) Failure to Maintain Effectiveness Of A Registration Statement. In the
event the Company fails to maintain the effectiveness of any Registration
Statement (or the underlying prospectus), including the payment of all necessary
fees, during the Registration Period (as defined below), other than temporary
suspensions permitted by Section 3(i), and the Investor holds any Put Shares
included in the Registration Statement at any time during such period, the
Company shall at the Investor's option, if permitted by applicable law, promptly
redeem the Put Shares at 111% of the Investment Amount or pay to the Investor
liquidated damages in immediately available funds into an account designated by
the Investor an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the aggregate Investment
Amount of Put Shares, resulting from any Put Notice, if any, then held by the
Investor for each thirty (30) calendar day period (prorated for partial
periods).

     3. OBLIGATION OF THE COMPANY. In connection with the registration of the
Registrable Securities, the Company shall do each of the following:

     (a) Prepare and file with the SEC, a Registration Statement with respect to
not less than the number of Registrable Securities provided in Section 2(a)
above, and, thereafter, use all diligent efforts to cause the Registration
Statement relating to the Registrable Securities to become effective, and keep
the Registration Statement effective at all times until the earliest of (i) the
date that is eighteen (18) months after the last Closing Date under the Equity
Agreement, (ii) the date when the Investor may sell all Registrable Securities
under Rule 144(k) without volume limitations, or (iii) the date the Investor no
longer owns any of the Registrable Securities (collectively, the "Registration
Period"), which Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements,
thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

                                       2
<PAGE>

     (b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective
amendments) and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus
used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep
the Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration
Period, and, during the Registration Period, and to comply with the provisions
of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable
Securities of the Company covered by the Registration Statement until the
expiration of the Registration Period. The Company shall not be deemed to have
complied with its obligations under this paragraph to keep the Registration
Statement effective during the Registration Period if it voluntarily takes any
action that would result in the Investors not being able to sell all of the
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement during the
Registration Period, unless such action is required under applicable law or the
Company has filed a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement and
the Commission has not declared it effective..

     (c) Permit a single firm of counsel designated by Investor to review the
Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto a reasonable
period of time (but not less than five (5) Business Days) prior to their filing
with the SEC, and not file any document in a form to which such counsel
reasonably objects.

     (d) Notify Investor and Investor's legal counsel identified to the Company
(which, until further notice, shall be deemed to be Krieger & Prager, LLP, ATTN:
Samuel Krieger, Esq.; "INVESTOR'S COUNSEL") (and, in the case of (i)(A) below,
not less than five (5) Business Day prior to such filing) and (if requested by
any such person) confirm such notice in writing no later than one (1) Business
Day following the day (i): (A) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or
post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement is proposed to be filed;
(B) whenever the SEC notifies the Company whether there will be a "review" of
such Registration Statement; and (C) with respect to the Registration Statement
or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (ii) of any
request by the SEC or any other Federal or state governmental authority for
amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the prospectus or for
additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement covering any or all
of the Registrable Securities or the initiation of any proceedings for that
purpose; (iv) if at any time any of the representations or warranties of the
Company contained in the Equity Agreement ceases to be true and correct in all
material respects; (v) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with
respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification
of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the
initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and (vi) of the
occurrence of any event that to the knowledge of the Company makes any statement
made in the Registration Statement or the prospectus or any document
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any

                                       3
<PAGE>

material respect or that requires any revisions to the Registration Statement,
the prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of the Registration
Statement or the prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

     (e) Furnish to Investor, (i) promptly after the same is prepared and
publicly distributed, filed with the SEC, or received by the Company, one (1)
copy of the Registration Statement, each preliminary prospectus and the
prospectus, each amendment or supplement thereto, all correspondence to, with,
or from the SEC, and (ii) such number of copies of a prospectus, [including a
preliminary prospectus], and all amendments and supplements thereto and such
other documents, as the Investor may reasonably request in order to facilitate
the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by the Investor;

     (f) Use all diligent efforts to (i) register and/or qualify the Registrable
Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such other securities or
blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Investor may reasonably request and
in which significant volumes of shares of Common Stock are traded, (ii) prepare
and file in those jurisdictions such amendments (including post-effective
amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be
necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof at all times during the
Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to
maintain such registrations and qualification in effect at all times during the
Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or
advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions:
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required in connection
therewith or as a condition thereto to (A) qualify to do business in any
jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this
Section 3(f), (B) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction,
(C) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction, (D)
provide any undertakings that cause more than nominal expense or burden to the
Company or (E) make any change in its charter or by-laws or any then existing
contracts, which in each case the Board of Directors of the Company determines
to be contrary to the best interests of the Company and its stockholders;

     (g) As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, notify
the Investor of the happening of any event of which the Company has knowledge,
as a result of which the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as
then in effect, includes any 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, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading ("Registration Default"), and use its best efforts to
promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to the Registration Statement or
other appropriate filing with the SEC to correct such untrue statement or
omission, and any other necessary steps to cure the Registration Default, and
deliver a number of copies of such supplement or amendment to the Investor as
the Investor may reasonably request. Failure to cure the Registration Default
within thirty (30) business days shall result in the Company incurring a
liquidated damage penalty of an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the
aggregate Investment Amount of Put Shares, resulting from any Put Notice, if
any, then held by the Investor for each thirty (30) calendar day period
(prorated for partial periods), for so long as more than 10,000 shares of Common
Stock are held by the Investor;

                                       4
<PAGE>

     (h) As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, notify
the Investor (or, in the event of an underwritten offering, the managing
underwriters) of the issuance by the SEC of any notice of effectiveness or any
stop order or other suspension of the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement at the earliest possible time;

     (i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time or from time to time
after the date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the Company
notifies Investor in writing of the existence of a Potential Material Event
("Blackout Notice"), Investor shall not offer or sell any Registrable
Securities, or engage in any other transaction involving or relating to the
Registrable Securities, from the time of the giving of notice with respect to a
Potential Material Event until Investor receives written notice from the Company
that such Potential Material Event either has been disclosed to the public or no
longer constitutes a Potential Material Event ("Blackout Period"); PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that (a) the Company may not so suspend or delay the right of the
Investor to sell the Registrable Securities for more than two five (5) day
periods in the aggregate during any 12-month period with at least a ten (10)
Business Day interval between such periods, during the periods the Registration
Statement is required to be in effect, and PROVIDED FURTHER that the Company
shall, if lawful to do so, provide the Investor with at least two (2) business
days' notice of the existence but not the substance) of a Potential Material
Event.

     (j) Use its reasonable efforts, if eligible, either to (i) cause all the
Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be listed on a
national securities exchange and on each additional national securities exchange
on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then
listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted
under the rules of such exchange, or (ii) cause all the Registrable Securities
covered by the Registration Statement[to be listed on the NASDAQ Small Cap
Market; or if, despite the Company's commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy
the preceding clause (i) or (ii), the Company is unsuccessful in doing so, to
secure NASD authorization and quotation for such Registrable Securities on the
OTC Bulletin Board and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to
arrange for at least two market makers to register with the National Association
of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD") as such with respect to such Registrable
Securities.

     (k) Provide a transfer agent for the Registrable Securities not later than

     4. OBLIGATIONS OF THE INVESTOR. In connection with the registration of the
Registrable Securities, the Investor shall have the following obligations;

     (a) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to
complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the
Registrable Securities of the Investor that the Investor shall timely furnish to
the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held
by it, and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held
by it, as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such
Registrable Securities and shall timely execute such documents in connection
with such registration as the Company may reasonably request If the Registration
Statement refers to any Investor by name or otherwise as the holder of any
securities of the Company, then such Investor shall have the right to require
(i) the inclusion therein of language, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to such Investor, to the effect that the ownership by such Investor
of such securities is not to be construed as a recommendation by such Investor
of the investment quality of the Company's securities covered thereby and that
such ownership does not imply that such Investor will assist in meeting any
future financial requirements of the Company, or (ii) if such reference to such
Investor by name or otherwise is not required by the Securities Act or any
similar Federal statute then in force, the deletion of the reference to such
Investor in any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement filed or
prepared subsequent to the time that such reference ceases to be required.

     (b) The Investor by such Investor's acceptance of the Registrable
Securities agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the
Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration
Statement hereunder; and

                                       6
<PAGE>

     (c) The Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company
of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(g) or 3(h)
above, the Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable
Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable
Securities until the Investor receives the copies of the supplemented or amended
prospectus contemplated by Section 3(g) or 3(h) and, if so directed by the
Company, the Investor shall deliver to the Company (at the expense of the
Company) or destroy (and deliver to the Company a certificate of destruction)
all copies in the Investor's possession, of the prospectus covering such
Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.

     5. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. (a) All reasonable expenses (other than
underwriting discounts and commissions to the Investor) incurred in connection
with Registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to SECTION 3, including,
without limitation, all Registration, listing, and qualifications fees, printers
and accounting fees, the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and a
fee for a single counsel for Investor of $4,500 for the initial Registration
Statement and $2,000 for each Additional Registration Statement covering the
Registrable Securities shall be borne by the Company; and

     (b) Except as otherwise provided for in SCHEDULE 5(b) attached hereto, the
Company nor any of its subsidiaries has, as of the date hereof, and the Company
shall not on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with
respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to
Investor in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.
Except as otherwise provided for in SCHEDULE 5(b), the Company has not
previously entered into any agreement granting any registration rights with
respect to any of its securities to any person. Except as otherwise provided for
in this SECTION 5, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, without
the written consent of Investor, the Company shall not grant to any person any
new right to request the Company to Register any securities of the Company under
the Securities Act unless the rights so granted are subject in all respects to
the prior rights in full of Investor set forth herein, and are not otherwise in
conflict or inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents.

     6. INDEMNIFICATION. After Registrable Securities are included in a
Registration Statement under this Agreement:

     (a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold
harmless, the Investor, the directors, if any, of such Investor, the officers,
if any, of such Investor, each person, if any, who controls the Investor within
the meaning of the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act") (each, an "Indemnified Person"), against any
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (joint or several) incurred
(collectively, "Claims") to which any of them may become subject under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claims (or
actions or proceedings, whether commenced in respect thereof) arise out of or
are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a

                                       7
<PAGE>

material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any post-effective
amendment thereof or 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, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of
a material fact contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented,
if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC)
or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary
to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which the statements therein were made, not misleading or (iii) any violation or
alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any
state securities law or any rule or regulation under the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act or any state securities law (the matters in the foregoing clauses
(i) through (iii) being collectively referred to as "Violations"). Subject to
clause (b) of this Section 6, the Company shall reimburse the Investor, promptly
as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable legal
fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with
investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this
Section 6(a) shall not (i) apply to any Claims arising out of or based upon a
Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information
furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person
expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration
Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, if such
prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(c)
hereof; (ii) be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of the
Investor to deliver or cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by
the Company; or (iii) apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such
settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Investor will indemnify the
Company, its officers, directors and agents (including legal counsel) (each an
"Indemnified Person") against any claims arising out of or based upon a
Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information
furnished in writing to the Company, by or on behalf of such Investor, expressly
for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement, or
arising out of or based upon a failure of the Investor to deliver or cause to be
delivered the prospectus made available by the Company, subject to such
limitations and conditions set forth in this Section 6. Such indemnity shall
remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on
behalf of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party, and shall survive the
offer and sale of the Registrable Securities by the Investor.

     (b) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person under this Section 6 of
notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action),
such Indemnified Person shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made
against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying
party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party
shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying
party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed,
to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to
the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person, as the case may be; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that an Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own
counsel with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying
party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying
party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person and the

                                       8
<PAGE>

indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing
interests between such Indemnified Person and any other party represented by
such counsel in such proceeding. In such event, the Company shall pay for only
one separate legal counsel for the Investor selected by the Investor. The
failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable
time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying
party of any liability to the Indemnified Person under this Section 6, except to
the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend
such action. The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by
periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation
or defense, as such expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred and is due
and payable.

     7. CONTRIBUTION. To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party
is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the
maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be
liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that (a) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the
maker would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards
set forth in Section 6; and (b) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable
Securities who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

     8. REPORTS UNDER EXCHANGE ACT. With a view to making available to the
Investor the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any
other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the
Investor to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration
("Rule 144"), the Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to:

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

     (b) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents
required of the Company under the Exchange Act; and

     (c) furnish to the Investor so long as the Investor owns Registrable
Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company that
it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act
and the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report
of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company
solely if unavailable by Edgar, and (iii) such other information as may be
reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to
Rule 144 without registration.

     (d) The Company will, at the request of any Investor of Registrable
Securities, give its Transfer Agent irrevocable instructions (supported by an
opinion of Company counsel, if required or requested by the Transfer Agent) to
the effect that, upon the Transfer Agent's receipt from such Investor of:

                                       9
<PAGE>

         (i) a certificate (a "Rule 144 Certificate") certifying (A) that such
         Investor has held the shares of Registrable Securities which the
         Investor proposes to sell (the "Securities Being Sold") for a period of
         not less than (1) year and (B) as to such other matters as may be
         appropriate in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and

         (B) an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Company (for which purposes
         it is agreed that the initial Investor's Counsel shall be deemed
         acceptable) that, based on the Rule 144 Certificate, Securities Being
         Sold may be sold pursuant to the provisions of Rule 144, even in the
         absence of an effective Registration Statement,

the Transfer Agent is to effect the transfer of the Securities Being Sold and
issue to the buyer(s) or transferee(s) thereof one or more stock certificates
representing the transferred Securities Being Sold without any restrictive
legend and without recording any restrictions on the transferability of such
shares on the Transfer Agent's books and records (except to the extent any such
legend or restriction results from facts other than the identity of the
Investor, as the seller or transferor thereof, or the status, including any
relevant legends or restrictions, of the shares of the Securities Being Sold
while held by the Investor). If the Transfer Agent requires any additional
documentation at the time of the transfer, the Company shall deliver or cause to
be delivered all such reasonable additional documentation as may be necessary to
effectuate the issuance of an unlegended certificate.

     9. MISCELLANEOUS.

     (a) REGISTERED OWNERS. A person or entity is deemed to be a holder of
Registrable Securities whenever such person or entity owns of record such
Registrable Securities. If the Company receives conflicting instructions,
notices or elections from two or more persons or entities with respect to the
same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of
instructions, notice or election received from the registered owner of such
Registrable Securities, who shall provide a bond or other form of satisfactory
protection to Company so as to cover contingent liability against any other
claimants.

     (b) RIGHTS CUMULATIVE; WAIVERS. The rights of each of the parties under
this Agreement are cumulative. The rights of each of the parties hereunder shall
not be capable of being waived or varied other than by an express waiver or
variation in writing. Any failure to exercise or any delay in exercising any of
such rights shall not operate as a waiver or variation of that or any other such
right. Any defective or partial exercise of any of such rights shall not
preclude any other or further exercise of that or any other such right. No act
or course of conduct or negotiation on the part of any party shall in any way
preclude such party from exercising any such right or constitute a suspension or
any variation of any such right.

     (c) LIABILITY. Neither party shall be liable for consequential damages.

shall be enforceable by the Company against the Transferee and by the Transferee
against the Company, to assign such rights; and (b) immediately following such
transfer or assignment the further disposition of such securities by the
transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act and applicable
state securities laws. In the event of any delay in filing or effectiveness of
the Registration Statement as a result of such assignment, the Company shall not
be liable for any damages arising from such delay.

     (g) Amendment. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended and the
observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance
and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the
Company and Investor. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this
Section 9 shall be binding upon the Company and any subsequent Transferees.

     (h) Severability. Each part of this Agreement is intended to be severable.
In the event that any provision of this Agreement is found by any court or other
authority of competent jurisdiction to be illegal or unenforceable, such
provision shall be severed or modified to the extent necessary to render it
enforceable and as so severed or modified, this Agreement shall continue in full
force and effect.
