   3. Piggy-Back Registration Rights.

     (a) Whenever the Company shall propose to file a registration statement
under the Securities Act relating to the public offering of Common Stock (other
than in connection with an Excluded Registration) for the Company's own account
or for the account of any holder of Common Stock who holds registration

                                       4
<PAGE>

rights as of the date hereof (the "Initiating Holder") and on a form and in a
manner that would permit registration of Registrable Securities for sale to the
public under the Securities Act, the Company shall (i) give written notice at
least 15 Business Days prior to the filing thereof to each Holder of
Registrable Securities then outstanding, specifying the approximate date on
which the Company proposes to file such registration statement and advising
such Holder of its right to have any or all of the Registrable Securities then
held by such Holder included among the securities to be covered thereby and
(ii) at the written request of any such Holder given to the Company within 15
days after such Holder's receipt of written notice from the Company, include
among the securities covered by such registration statement the number of
Registrable Securities which such Holder (a "Requesting Holder") shall have
requested be so included (subject, however, to reduction in accordance with
paragraph (b) of this Section 3).

     (b) Each Holder of Registrable Securities wishing to participate in an
offering pursuant to Section 3(a) may include shares of Common Stock in any
Registration Statement relating to such offering to the extent that the
inclusion of such shares of Common Stock shall not reduce the number of shares
of Common Stock to be offered and sold by the Company or any Initiating Holder
pursuant thereto. If the lead managing underwriter for an Underwritten Offering
pursuant to Section 3(a) determines that marketing factors require a limitation
on the number of shares of Common Stock to be offered and sold by Requesting
Holders in such offering, there shall be included in such offering only that
number of shares of Common Stock, if any, that such lead managing underwriter
reasonably believes will not jeopardize the success of the offering of all of
the shares of Common Stock that the Company wishes to sell for its own account
or that the Initiating Holder desires to sell for its own account, as the case
may be. In such event, the shares of Common Stock to be included in such
offering shall consist of (i) first, the securities the Company or the
Initiating Holder, as the case may be, proposes to sell, and (ii) second, the
number, if any, of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such
registration that, in the opinion of such lead managing underwriter can be sold
without jeopardizing the success of the offering of all of the securities that
the Company or the Initiating Holder, as the case may be, wishes to sell for
its own account, such amount to be allocated on a pro rata basis among the
Holders of Registrable Securities who have requested that their securities be
so included based on the number of Registrable Securities that each Holder
thereof has requested to be so included.

     (c) Nothing in this Section 3 shall create any liability on the part of
the Company to the Holders of Registrable Securities if the Company for any
reason should decide not to file a registration statement proposed to be filed
under Section 3(a) or to withdraw such registration statement subsequent to its
filing, regardless of any action whatsoever that a Holder may have taken,
whether as a result of the issuance by the Company of any notice hereunder or
otherwise.

   4. Shelf Registration Statements.

     (a) Initial and Draw-Down Shelf Registration Statements.

      (1) The Company shall file the Initial Shelf Registration Statement with
the SEC not later than 180 days following the Initial Closing Date and shall
use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Initial Shelf Registration
Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable
thereafter. The Initial Shelf Registration Statement shall register the
offering of the Registrable Securities that are outstanding immediately prior
to the filing date of the Initial Shelf Registration Statement (collectively,
the "Initial Shelf Registrable Securities"). The Company shall promptly notify
the applicable Holders of the date and time of declaration of effectiveness of
the Initial Shelf Registration Statement.

      (2) The Company shall file a Draw-Down Shelf Registration Statement with
the SEC not later than 30 days following each Draw Down Closing that takes
place after the effective date of the Initial Shelf Registration Statement, and
shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Draw-Down Shelf
Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as
reasonably practicable thereafter. Each Draw-Down Shelf Registration Statement
shall register the offering of the Registrable Securities that are outstanding
immediately prior to the filing date of such Draw-Down Shelf Registration
Statement and that have not been

                                       5
<PAGE>

registered pursuant to any previous Registration Statement (collectively, the
"Draw-Down Shelf Registrable Securities"). The Company shall promptly notify
the applicable Holders of the date and time of declaration of effectiveness of
each Draw-Down Shelf Registration Statement.

     (b) Top-up Shelf Registration Statements. 3.2 Top-up Shelf Registration
Statements

      (1) On or before March 31 of each year, beginning on March 31, 2003, the
Company shall file a Top-up Shelf Registration Statement with the SEC
registering the offering of all Top-up Shelf Registrable Securities that are
outstanding immediately prior to such filing date and that have not been
registered pursuant to any previous Registration Statement, and shall use its
reasonable best efforts to cause such Top-up Shelf Registration Statement to be
declared effective by the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. The
Company shall promptly notify the applicable Holders of the date and time of
declaration of effectiveness of each Top-up Shelf Registration Statement.

      (2) The holders of a majority of the then outstanding Top-up Shelf
Registrable Securities that have not been registered pursuant to any previous
Registration Statement shall have the right to make one request, in writing, at
any date beginning after January 1, 2002, for the Company to file a Top-up
Shelf Registration Statement with the SEC registering the offering of some or
all of the then outstanding Top-up Shelf Registrable Securities that have not
been registered pursuant to any previous Registration Statement. The Company
shall file such Top-up Shelf Registration Statement with the SEC not later than
30 Business Days following its receipt of such request and shall use its
reasonable best efforts to cause such Top-up Registration Statement to be
declared effective by the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter.
Within ten Business Days following receipt of such request, the Company shall
give written notice to each Holder of such Top-up Shelf Registrable Securities
then outstanding, specifying the approximate date on which the Company proposes
to file such Top-up Shelf Registration Statement and advising such Holder of
its right to have any or all of such Top-up Shelf Registrable Securities then
held by such Holder included among the securities to be covered thereby. At the
written request of any such Holder given to the Company within 15 Business Days
after such Holder's receipt of written notice from the Company, the Company
shall include among the securities covered by such registration statement the
number of such Top-up Shelf Registrable Securities which such Holder shall have
requested be so included.

   5. Selection of Underwriters. In connection with any Underwritten Offering
pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall have the right to
select a lead managing underwriter or underwriters to administer such offering,
which lead managing underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Holders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities to
be included in such Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Holders
holding a majority of the Registrable Securities to be included in such
Registration Statement shall have the right to select a co-managing underwriter
or underwriters for such offering, which co-managing underwriter or
underwriters shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

   6. Blackout Periods; Holdback.

     (a) If the Company determines that the registration and distribution of
Registrable Securities (i) would materially impede, delay, interfere with or
otherwise adversely affect any pending financing, registration of securities,
acquisition, corporate reorganization or other significant transaction
involving the Company or (ii) would require disclosure of non-public material
information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as
confidential, as determined by the Company's Board of Directors in good faith,
the Company shall promptly give the Holders notice of such determination and
shall be entitled to postpone the filing or effectiveness of a Registration
Statement, or to suspend the use of an effective Registration Statement, for
the shortest period of time reasonably required, but in any event not to exceed
90 days with respect to matters covered by clause (i) above, and not to exceed
30 days with respect to matters covered by clause (ii) above (each such period,
a "Blackout Period"); provided that a Blackout Period pursuant to clause (i)
above with respect to a registration of securities proposed by the Company may,
at the election of the Company, commence on the date that is 30 days prior to
the date the Company in good faith estimates will be the date of filing of such
registration and end no later than the earlier of (x) the date (following the
effective date) specified in the

                                       6

Common Stock and (y) the 90th day after the commencement of such Blackout
Period; provided further, that the Company shall not be entitled to obtain
deferrals under this Section 6(a) for more than an aggregate of 90 days in any
12-month period. The Company shall promptly notify each Holder of the
expiration or earlier termination of a Blackout Period.

     (b) If requested by the managing underwriter of any offering of securities
of the Company registered under the Securities Act, each Holder shall not, and
shall ensure that its Affiliates do not, directly or indirectly, sell, offer,
pledge, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any
option or contract to sell, grant any option, warrant or right to purchase, or
otherwise dispose of or transfer, or enter into any swap or other agreement or
any arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly,
the economic consequence of ownership in, any Registrable Securities or Related
Securities held by such Holder or such Holder's Affiliates during the 90 days
following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed
under the Securities Act, except for Registrable Securities included in such
registration. If requested, each Holder shall enter, and shall ensure that all
Affiliates of such Holder holding Registrable Securities or Related Securities
enter, into a lock-up agreement with the applicable underwriters that is
consistent with the agreement in the preceding sentence.

     (c) Notwithstanding any provision of Section 6(a) or 6(b), the cumulative

cause such Registration Statement to become and remain effective;

     (b) prepare and file with the SEC amendments and post-effective amendments

Securities, and cause the Prospectus as so amended and supplemented to be filed
pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act, and otherwise use reasonable

bring-downs thereof from the Company's independent certified public accountants
addressed to the underwriters, such letters to be in customary form and
covering matters of the type customarily covered in "cold comfort" letters by
independent accountants in connection with Underwritten Offerings; and

      (iv) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably
requested by the managing underwriters to evidence compliance with any
customary conditions contained in the underwriting agreement;

     (j) cooperate with the Holders of Registrable Securities covered by such
Registration Statement and the managing underwriter or underwriters or agents,
if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not
bearing any restrictive legends) representing the securities to be sold under
such Registration Statement, and enable such securities to be in such
denominations and registered in such names as the managing underwriter or
underwriters or agents, if any, or such Holders may request;

     (k) if reasonably requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters or
a Holder of Registrable Securities being sold in connection with an
Underwritten Offering, incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment to the Registration Statement such information as the managing
underwriters and the Holders of a majority in number of the Registrable
Securities being sold agree should be included therein relating to the plan of
distribution with respect to such Registrable Securities, including, without
limitation, information with respect to the principal amount of Registrable
Securities being sold to such underwriters, the purchase price being paid
therefor by such underwriters and any other terms of the Underwritten Offering
of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering and make all required
filings of such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as promptly
as practicable upon being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such
Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment;

     (l) if reasonably requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters or
a Holder of Registrable Securities being sold in an Underwritten Offering,
cause appropriate representatives of the Company to participate in any "road

aware suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or of any
order suspending or preventing the use of any related Prospectus or suspending
the qualification of any Registrable Securities included in the Registration
Statement for sale in any jurisdiction, use reasonable best efforts promptly to
obtain the withdrawal of such stop order or other order, and the period for
which the Registration Statement shall be kept effective shall be extended by a
number of days equal to the number of days between the issuance and withdrawal
of any stop order or other order (a "Section 7(l) Period"); and

     (n) disclose in each Registration Statement that, pursuant to Rule 416
under the Securities Act, such Registration Statement shall register the
offering of an indeterminate number of shares of Common Stock which may become
issuable pursuant to the antidilution provisions of the Preferred Shares and
the Warrants.

   8. Agreements of Holders.

     (a) As a condition to the Company's obligation under this Agreement to
cause Registrable Securities of any Holder to be included in a Registration
Statement, such Holder shall timely provide the Company with all of the
information required to be provided in the Registration Statement with respect
to such Holder pursuant to Items 507 and 508 of Regulation S-K under the
Securities Act or as otherwise may reasonably be required by the Company in
connection with the Registration Statement.

     (b) Each Holder shall comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of
the Securities Act in connection with the offer and sale of Registrable
Securities made by such Holder pursuant to the Registration Statement. Upon
receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the
kind described in Section 7(e) or Section 7(l), each Holder of Registrable
Securities shall forthwith discontinue the disposition of Registrable
Securities pursuant to the Prospectus or Registration Statement covering such
Registrable Securities until

                                       9
<PAGE>

such Holder's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus
contemplated by Section 7(e) or the withdrawal of any stop order or other order
referred to in Section 7(l), and, if so directed by the Company, shall deliver
to the Company all copies, other than permanent files copies then in such
Holder's possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at
the time of receipt of such notice.

     (c) To the extent required by the Securities Act or rules or regulations
thereunder, as reasonably determined by the Company, a Holder shall consent to
disclosure in any Registration Statement to the effect that such Holder is or
may be deemed to be an underwriter for purposes of the Securities Act in
connection with the offering of Registrable Securities of such Holder included
in such Registration Statement.

     (d) Each Holder shall comply, and shall cause its Affiliates to comply,
with Regulation M under the Exchange Act in connection with the offer and sale
of Registrable Securities made by such Holder pursuant to any Registration
Statement. Each Holder shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide
the Company with such information about such Holder's offer and sale of
Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement as the Company
shall reasonably require to enable it and its Affiliates to comply with
Regulation M under the Exchange Act in connection with any such offer and sale.

   9. Registration Expenses. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in
connection with all registrations pursuant to this Agreement. In connection
with all such registrations, each Holder shall pay all underwriting discounts
and commissions, all transfer taxes, if any, all documentary stamp taxes, if
any, relating to the sale or disposition of such Holder's Registrable
Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, and all fees and expenses of
counsel to such Holder except as provided in clause (vii) of the definition of
Registration Expenses.

   10.  Indemnification; Contribution.

     (a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of
Registrable Securities and each Person, if any, who controls such Holder
(within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees, disbursements and expenses, as incurred)
(collectively, "Losses") incurred by such party pursuant to any actual or
threatened action, suit, proceeding or investigation arising out of or based
upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, or
any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated in,
the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any
amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing or necessary to make the
statements therein (in the case of a Prospectus or a preliminary Prospectus, in
the light of the circumstances then existing) not misleading, except in each
case insofar as such statements or omissions arise out of or are based upon (i)
any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission made in reliance on and in conformity with information with respect to
such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder or its counsel
expressly for use therein, (ii) the use of any Prospectus after such time as
the obligation of the Company to keep effective the Registration Statement of
which such Prospectus forms a part has expired or (iii) the use of any
Prospectus after such time as the Company has advised the Holders that the
filing of an amendment or supplement thereto is required, except such
Prospectus as so amended or supplemented. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 10(a), the Company shall not be liable to any Holder
or to any Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of
the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) under the indemnity
agreement in this Section 10(a) for any Losses that arise out of or are based
upon any of the matters specified in clause (ii) or (iii) of the immediately
preceding sentence or that arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any
Prospectus if either (i) (A) such Holder failed to send or deliver a copy of
the Prospectus with or prior to the delivery of written confirmation of the
sale of Registrable Securities by such Holder to the Person asserting the claim
from which such Losses arise and (B) the Prospectus would have corrected such
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or such omission or alleged
omission, or (ii) (x) such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission is corrected in an amendment or supplement to the
Prospectus and (y) having previously been furnished by or on behalf of the
Company with copies of the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented, such
Holder thereafter fails to deliver such Prospectus, as so amended or
supplemented, with or prior to the delivery of written confirmation of the sale
of Registrable Securities by such Holder to the Person asserting the claim from
which such Losses arise.

                                       10
<PAGE>

     (b) In connection with any Registration Statement filed pursuant hereto,
each Holder of Registrable Securities to be covered thereby shall, jointly and
severally with all other Holders that are Affiliates of such Holder (and,
otherwise, severally and not jointly with any other Holders), indemnify and
hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers, and each Person, if any,
who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and all other Holders against all Losses
incurred by such party pursuant to any actual or threatened action, suit,
proceeding or investigation arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in, or any omission or alleged
omission of a material fact required to be stated in, the Registration
Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment or supplement
to any of the foregoing or necessary to make the statements therein (in case of
a Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances then
existing) not misleading, but only to the extent that any such untrue statement
or omission is made in reliance on and in conformity with information with
respect to such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder or
its counsel specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the liability
of each Holder hereunder shall be limited to the proportion of any such Losses
that is equal to the proportion that the net proceeds from the sale of
Registrable Securities sold by such Holder under such Registration Statement
bears to the total net proceeds from the sale of all securities sold
thereunder, but not in any event to exceed the net proceeds received by such
Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
Statement.

     (c) Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder agrees to give prompt
written notice to the indemnifying party after the receipt by such indemnified
party of any written notice of the commencement of any action, suit, proceeding
or investigation or threat thereof made in writing for which such indemnified
party may claim indemnification or contribution pursuant to this Agreement,
provided that failure to give such notification shall not affect the
obligations of the indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 10 except to the
extent the indemnifying party shall have been actually prejudiced as a result
of such failure. 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
therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other
indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice
from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to
assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such
indemnified party for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other
expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in
connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of
investigation, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party,
based on the written opinion of counsel, a conflict of interest is likely to
exist between the indemnifying party and such indemnified party and any other
of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the
indemnifying party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of (i) more
than one counsel for all Holders of Registrable Securities who are indemnified
parties, selected by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities
who are indemnified parties (which selection shall be reasonably satisfactory
to the Company), (ii) more than one counsel for the underwriters or (iii) more
than one counsel for the Company, in each case in connection with any one
action or separate but similar or related actions. An indemnifying party who is
not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be
obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties
indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in
the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party, based on the written opinion
of counsel, a conflict of interest is likely to exist between an indemnified
party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in
which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and
expenses of such additional counsel, provided that the indemnifying party shall
not be liable for the fees and expenses of (i) more than one counsel for all
Holders of Registrable Securities who are indemnified parties (the selection of
which counsel by such Holders of a majority of such Registrable Securities
shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company), (ii) more than one counsel
for the underwriters or (iii) more than one counsel for the Company, in each
case in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related
actions. No indemnifying party, in defense of any such action, suit, proceeding
or investigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party,
consent to the entry of any judgment or entry into any settlement which does
not include as an unconditional

                                       11
<PAGE>

term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party
of a release from all liability in respect to such action, suit, proceeding or
investigation to the extent such liability is covered by the indemnity
obligations set forth in this Section 10. No indemnified party shall consent to
entry of any judgment or entry into any settlement without the consent of each
indemnifying party.

     (d) If the indemnification from the indemnifying party provided for in
this Section 10 is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder in respect to
any Losses, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such
indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and
indemnified party in connection with the actions which resulted in such Losses,
as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that
the liability of each Holder hereunder shall be limited to the proportion of
any such Losses that is equal to the proportion that the net proceeds from the
sale of Registrable Securities sold by such Holder under a Registration
Statement bears to the total net proceeds from the sale of all securities sold
thereunder, but not in any event to exceed the net proceeds received by such
Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
Statement. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party
shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in
question, including any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has
been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or
indemnified party, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid
or payable by a party as a result of the Losses referred to above shall be
deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 10(c), any
legal or other fees and expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party
in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No Person guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The parties agree that it would
not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10(d) were
determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that
does not take into account the consideration referred to in this Section 10(d).
If indemnification is available under this Section 10, the indemnifying parties
shall indemnify each indemnified party to the full extent provided in Section
10(a) or 10(b), as the case may be, without regard to the relative fault of
such indemnifying parties or indemnified party or any other equitable
consideration provided for in this Section 10(d).

     (e) The provisions of this Section 10 shall be in addition to any
liability which any indemnifying party may have to any indemnified party and
shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

   11. Participation in Underwritten Offerings. No Holder of Registrable
Securities may participate in any Underwritten Offering pursuant to this
Agreement unless such Holder (i) agrees to sell such Holder's Registrable
Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by
the Company and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, custody agreements, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other
documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting
arrangements.

   12. Reports Under the Exchange Act. For so long as any Registrable
Securities remain outstanding, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to
file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports required to be filed by the
Company pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and shall furnish
to any Holder, promptly upon request by such Holder, a written statement by the
Company as to whether it has complied with the current public information
requirements of Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act.

   13. Assignment of Registration Rights. The right to cause the Company to
register Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3 may be assigned (but only
with all related obligations hereunder) by any Purchaser in connection with a
transfer to any transferee of the Registrable Securities permitted under the
Investment Agreement and the terms of the Preferred Shares and the Warrants
who, after such transfer, holds at least 5% of the then-outstanding Registrable
Securities, provided that such assignment of rights under this Agreement shall
be effective only if (i) immediately thereafter the further disposition of such
securities by such transferee is restricted under the Securities Act and (ii)
such transferee agrees in writing to become a Holder

                                       12
<PAGE>

under this Agreement and to be bound by the provisions hereof. The right to
cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 4 may
be assigned (but only with all related obligations hereunder) by any Purchaser
in connection with a transfer to any transferee of the Registrable Securities
permitted under the Investment Agreement and the terms of the Preferred Shares
and the Warrants, provided that such assignment of rights under this Agreement
shall be effective only if (i) immediately thereafter the further disposition
of such securities by such transferee is restricted under the Securities Act
and (ii) such transferee agrees in writing to become a Holder under this
Agreement and to be bound by the provisions hereof. If a Holder transfers
Registrable Securities in connection with the immediately preceding sentence,
the Company agrees promptly to amend any Shelf Registration Statement or to
file a supplement to the Prospectus included therein to disclose that any
transferee referred to in such sentence is a Holder of Registrable Securities.

   14. Binding Effect; Benefit. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of
and be binding upon the parties hereto, any Holder and any successor, permitted
assign, heir and legal representative thereof; provided, however, that, except
as provided in Section 13, this Agreement and the provisions of this Agreement
that are for the benefit of the Holders shall not be assignable by any Holder,
and any such purported assignment shall be null and void. Except to the extent
provided in Section 10, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is
intended to confer on any Person other than the parties hereto, the Holders and
their respective successors, permitted assigns, heirs and legal representatives
any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this
Agreement.

   15. Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the
provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and
waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given,
unless the Company has obtained the written consent thereto of Holders of a
majority of the Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver
or consent to departure from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter
that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders of Registrable Securities
whose securities are being sold pursuant to a Registration Statement and that
does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders of
Registrable Securities may be given by Holders of at least a majority of the
Registrable Securities being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Registration
Statement; provided that the provisions of this sentence may not be amended,
modified or supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of the
immediately preceding sentence. Each Holder of Registrable Securities
outstanding at the time of any such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver
or consent or thereafter shall be bound by any such amendment, modification,
supplement, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 15, whether or
not any notice, writing or marking indicating such amendment, modification,
supplement, waiver or consent appears on the Registrable Securities or is
delivered to such Holder.

   16. Notices. All notices and other communications given or made pursuant
hereto, unless otherwise specified, shall be in writing and shall be deemed to
be effectively given as follows: (i) upon personal delivery to the party to be
notified; (ii) when sent by facsimile, if sent during normal business hours of
the recipient and if not, then on the next Business Day; (iii) five days after
having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,
postage prepaid; or (iv) two days after deposit with a nationally recognized
overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of

ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ITS

   20. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate with respect to any Holder
when such Holder no longer holds any Registrable Securities, except for any
liabilities or obligations under Sections 9 and 10, which shall remain in

Agreement shall relieve any party of any liability for any breach of such

Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings among the parties
with respect to such registration rights. No party hereto shall have any
rights, duties or obligations other than those specifically set forth in this
Agreement.

   22. Specific Performance. Without limiting the rights of each party hereto
to pursue all other legal and equitable rights available to such party for any
other parties' failure to perform their obligations under this Agreement, the
parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the remedy at law for any failure to
perform their obligations hereunder would be inadequate and that each of them,
respectively, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall be entitled to
specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies in the

invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the parties
shall negotiate in good faith with a view to the substitution therefor of a
suitable and equitable solution in order to carry out, so far as may be valid
and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid provision, provided,
however, that the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision
in every other respect and of the remaining provisions contained herein shall
not be in any way impaired thereby, it being intended that all of the rights
and privileges of the parties hereto shall be enforceable to the fullest extent
permitted by law.

                        LOAN AND STOCK PLEDGE AGREEMENT
                        -------------------------------

          THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AND STOCK PLEDGE AGREEMENT (the "Loan
Agreement" or "Agreement") is made and executed as of January 1, 2000, by and
among LAWRENCE J. GRILL ("Pledgor") and UNITED PANAM FINANCIAL CORP., a
California corporation ("Lender") in connection with aggregate loans of
$300,000.00 previously made by Lender to Pledgor ("Loan") pursuant to an Amended
and Restated Promissory Note (the "Note") of Borrower of even date herewith in
the principal amount of $300,000, the proceeds of which have been used by
Pledgor to purchase 375,000 shares of the common stock of Lender on October 15,
1997 and March 12, 1999, acquired by exercise of Stock Options (the "Options")
pursuant to a Stock Option Agreement between Lender and Pledgor. The Option was
granted under and subject to the terms of Lender's Stock Option Plan. This
Agreement amends and restates in their entirety the Loan and Stock Pledge
Agreement, dated October 15, 1997, respecting a loan in the amount of $225,000
made by Lender to Pledgor, and the Loan and Stock Pledge Agreement, dated March
12, 1999 respecting a loan in the amount of $75,000 made by Lender to Pledgor.

          1.  Pledge of Shares.  Pledgor hereby agrees to (i) pledge a total of
              ----------------
375,000 shares of Lender's common stock ("Shares") pursuant to this Agreement as
security for the Loan; and (ii) repay the Loan in full on or before December 31,
2002.

          2.  Obligations; Security Interest.  This Loan Agreement and the
              ------------------------------
security interest created hereby are given for the purpose of securing the
payment and performance of any and all of Pledgor's presently existing or
hereafter arising obligations and liabilities owing to Lender ("Obligations"),
including, without implied limitation (i) payment of all indebtedness evidenced
by the Note; (ii) all present and future obligations of Pledgor under this
Agreement; and (iii) any and all amendments, modifications, renewals and/or
extensions of any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to amendments,
modifications, renewals or extensions which are evidenced by new or additional
instruments, documents or agreements or which change the rate of interest on any
indebtedness or obligations secured hereby.  The term "Obligations" as used
herein is intended to mean Obligations in its most comprehensive sense and
includes all present and future indebtedness, liabilities, undertakings,
covenants and other obligations of Pledgor, whether  voluntary or involuntary,
absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined,
earned or unearned, and due or not due.

          3.  Pledge.  Pledgor hereby assigns, grants, pledges and transfers to
              ------
Lender, as security for the payment and performance of the Obligations described
in Paragraph 1 above, a security interest in, and lien upon all of Pledgor's
right, title and interest in and to the following:

              (a)  the Shares;
<PAGE>

              (b)  stock powers ("Powers") duly executed in blank, with such
signatures properly guaranteed covering all of the Shares; and

              (c)  the proceeds of each of the foregoing including, without
limitation any and all dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time
to time received, receivable, or otherwise distributed in respect of or in
exchange for any of the Shares or Options (the "Proceeds").  The Shares, the
Powers, and the Proceeds shall be collectively referred to as the "Collateral".

          4.  Deliveries.  Concurrent with the execution hereof, Pledgor has
              ----------
delivered Certificate(s) No(s). 0194 (44,750), 0199 (160,000) and 0262 (95,250),
representing all of the Shares, to Lender together with related Powers or
endorsements, to be held pursuant to the terms hereof for the benefit of Lender.

          5.  Lender's Duties.  Lender shall have no duty with respect to the
              ---------------
Collateral other than the duty to use reasonable care if it is in its
possession.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lender shall be
under no obligation to take any steps necessary to preserve rights in the
Collateral against any other parties, to sell same if it threatens to decline in
value, or to exercise any rights represented thereby; provided, however, that
Lender may, at its option, do so, and any and all expenses incurred in
connection therewith shall be for the sole account of Pledgor.

          6.  Voting Rights; Dividends; Etc.  During the term of this Agreement
              ------------------------------
and as long as no breach of agreement, representation, warranty or obligation of
Pledgor or other event of default, under this Loan Agreement or the Note (an
"Event of Default"), shall have occurred and be continuing beyond any applicable
cure period:

              (a)  Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and
other consensual rights pertaining to the Shares or any part thereof for any
purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.

              (b)  Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all
dividends and distributions paid in respect of the Shares provided, however,
that any and all

                   (i)    dividends and distributions paid or payable other than
in cash in respect of, and instruments and other property received, receivable
or otherwise distributed in respect of, or in exchange for, any Shares,

                   (ii)   dividends and distributions paid or payable in cash in
respect of any Shares in connection with a partial or total liquidation or
dissolution or in connection with a reduction of capital, capital surplus or
paid-in surplus, and

                   (iii)  cash paid with respect to, payable or otherwise
distributed on redemption of, or in exchange for, any Shares, shall be forthwith
delivered to Lender to hold as
<PAGE>

Collateral and shall, if received by Pledgor, be received in trust for the
benefit of Lender, be segregated from the other property or funds of Pledgor,
and be forthwith delivered to Lender as Collateral in the same form as so
received (with any necessary endorsement).

              (c)  Lender shall execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and
delivered) to Pledgor all such proxies and other instruments as Pledgor may
reasonably request for the purpose of enabling Pledgor to exercise those voting
and other rights which it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph 6(a)
above and to receive those dividends or distributions which it is authorized to
receive and retain pursuant to paragraph 6(b) above.

              (d)  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
and any amounts shall be due and payable (whether by acceleration, maturity, or
otherwise) under any of the Obligations, all rights of Pledgor to exercise the
voting and other consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to
exercise pursuant to this paragraph 6 and to receive the dividends and
distributions which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain
pursuant to this paragraph shall, at Lender's option, cease, and all such rights
shall, at Lender's option, thereupon become vested in Lender so long as an Event
of Default shall continue, and Lender shall, at its option, thereupon have the
sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights and to receive
and hold as Collateral such dividends and interest payments.

          7.  Representations.  Pledgor warrants, represents and covenants that:
              ---------------

              (a)  except as set forth in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Act"), there are no restrictions upon the transfer of any of the
Collateral and Pledgor has the right to pledge and grant a security interest in
or otherwise transfer such Collateral free of any encumbrances or rights of
third parties;

              (b)  all of the Collateral is and shall remain free from all
liens, claims, encumbrances, and purchase money or other security interests, and
Pledgor shall not, without Lender's prior written consent, sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral;

              (c)  this Agreement, and the delivery to Lender of the
certificates representing the Shares creates a valid and perfected security
interest in the Collateral in favor of Lender, and all actions necessary or
desirable to such perfection have been duly taken;

              (d)  no authorization or other action by, and no notice to or
filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required either
(i) for the grant by Pledgor of the security interest granted hereby or for the
execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by Pledgor; (ii) for the
perfection of or exercise by Lender of its rights and remedies hereunder; or
(iii) for the exercise by Lender of the voting or other rights provided for in
this Agreement or the remedies in respect of the Shares pursuant to this
Agreement (except as may be required in connection with a disposition of the
Shares by laws affecting the offering and sale of securities generally);

                                       3
<PAGE>

              (e)  Pledgor has made its own arrangements for keeping informed of
changes or potential changes affecting the Collateral (including, but not
limited to, rights to convert, rights to subscribe, payment of dividends,
reorganization or other exchanges, tender offers and voting rights) and Pledgor
agrees that Lender shall have no responsibility or liability for informing
Pledgor of any such changes or potential changes or for taking any action or
omitting to take any action with respect thereto; and

              (f)  All of the outstanding Shares have been duly and validly
issued by UPFC and they are fully paid and nonassessable.

          8.  Share Adjustment.  In the event that during the term of this
              ----------------
Agreement, any reclassification, readjustment or other change is declared or
made in the capital structure of Borrower, or any Option is exercised, all new
substituted and additional shares, options, or other securities, issued, or
issuable, to Pledgor by reason of any such change or exercise shall be delivered
to and held by Lender under the terms of this Agreement in the same manner as
the Collateral originally pledged hereunder.

          9.  Warrants.  In the event that during the term of this Agreement,
              --------
subscription warrants or any other rights or options shall be issued or
exercised in connection with the Collateral, such warrants, rights and options
acquired by Pledgor shall be immediately assigned by Pledgor to Lender and all
new stock or other securities so acquired by Pledgor shall also be immediately
assigned to Lender to be held under the terms of this Agreement in the same
manner as the Collateral originally pledged hereunder.

          10. Consent.  Pledgor hereby consents that, from time-to-time, before
              -------
or after the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, with or without
notice to or assent from Pledgor, any other security at any time held by or
available to Lender for any of the Obligations or any other security at any time
held by or available to Lender of any other person, firm or corporation
secondarily or otherwise liable for any of the Obligations, may be exchanged,
surrendered, or released and any of the Obligations may be changed, altered,
renewed, extended, continued, surrendered, compromised, waived or released, in
whole or in part, as Lender may see fit, and Pledgor shall remain bound under
this Agreement notwithstanding any such exchange, surrender, release,
alteration, renewal, extension, continuance, compromise, waiver or inaction, or
extension of further credit.

          11. Remedies Upon Default.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of
              ---------------------
Default, Lender shall have, in addition to any other rights given by law or the
rights hereunder, all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral
of a secured party under the California Uniform Commercial Code ("Code").

          In addition, with respect to the Collateral, or any part thereof, upon
thirty (30) business days' notice to Pledgor following the occurrence of an
Event of Default and Pledgor's failure to cause such Event of Default to be
cured within such period, Lender may sell or cause the same to

                                       4
<PAGE>

be sold at any public or private sale, in one or more sales or lots, at such
price as Lender may deem best, and for cash or on credit or for future delivery,
without assumption of any credit risk, and the purchaser of any or all of the
Collateral so sold shall thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any
claim, encumbrance or right of any kind whatsoever.

          Any sale of the Collateral conducted in conformity with reasonable
commercial practices of banks, insurance companies or other financial
institutions disposing of property similar to the Collateral and any sale made
through NASDAQ, any securities exchange or any NASD member shall be conclusively
deemed to be commercially reasonable.  Any requirements of reasonable notice
shall be met if such notice is mailed to Pledgor, at the address set forth in
the Loan Agreement, at least twenty (20) calendar days before the time of the
sale or disposition.  Any other retirement of notice, demand or advertisement
for sale, is, to the extent permitted by law, waived.

          Lender may, in its own name, or in the name of a designee or nominee,
buy at any public sale of the Collateral, or to the extent permitted by the
Code, at any private sale.  Lender shall have the right to execute any document
or form, in its name or in the name of the Pledgor, which may be necessary or
desirable in connection with such sale of Collateral.

          In addition to specific rights provided herein with respect to sales
of the Shares, and subject to applicable law, sales of the Collateral may be
conducted with or without demand and with or without notice or advertisement,
for cash, credit or for future delivery, all as the Lender shall deem
appropriate.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Lender may (i) approach and
negotiate with potential purchasers, and (ii) restrict the prospective bidders
or purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing
such Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the
distribution or resale thereof in the event the securities to be sold constitute
restricted securities under the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 144 of the
Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.  In the event any such Collateral
is sold at private sale, Pledgor agrees that such sale shall not, by reason
merely that it is a private sale subject to the potential restrictions described
herein, or that there is a possibility that a substantially higher price might
have been realized at a public sale, be deemed to have not been made in a
commercially reasonable manner.  Pledgor recognizes that no ready market may
exist for such Collateral and that a sale by Lender of any such Collateral for
an amount substantially less than the value of the Shares may be commercially
reasonable in view of the difficulties that may be encountered in attempting to
sell a large block of the securities of Lender.  Upon consummation of any such
sale, Lender shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the
purchaser or purchasers thereof, the Collateral so sold.  Each such Purchaser of
any such sale shall hold the Property sold absolutely free from any claim or
right on the part of the Pledgor, and Pledgor hereby waives (to the extent
permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which Pledgor
now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute
now existing or hereafter enacted.  If any consent, approval or authorization of
any state, municipal or other governmental agency or authority shall be
necessary to effectuate any sale or disposition of the Collateral, Pledgor shall
execute all such applications and other instruments as may be required in
connection with securing any such consent, approval or authorization and, will
otherwise use its best efforts to secure the same.  Under no circumstances will
Lender be obligated

                                       5
<PAGE>

to register any securities under the Securities Act of 1933 or any similar
qualification or registration law of any state, unless, in its sole discretion,
it shall elect to do so, in which case the cost of such registration and
qualification shall become part of the Obligations secured hereby.

          12.  Lender as Pledgor's Attorney-in-Fact.  Pledgor hereby irrevocably
               ------------------------------------
appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact to arrange for the transfer at any time
of the Collateral on the books of Pledgor to the name of Lender or to the name
of Lender's nominee.

          13.  Further Assurances.  Pledgor agrees that it will cooperate with
               ------------------
Lender  and will execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all
such other stock powers, proxies, instruments, and documents and will take all
such other action, as Lender may reasonably request from time to time in order
to carry out the provisions and purposes hereof.

          14.  Attorneys' Fees and Costs.  Pledgor hereby agrees to pay all
               -------------------------
reasonable attorneys' fees and all other costs and expenses which may be
incurred by Lender in the enforcement of this Agreement, whether or not suit is
brought.

          15.  Notices.  All notices or demands by any party hereto to the other
               -------
party and relating to this Agreement shall be made in the manner and to the
addresses set forth in the Loan Modification Agreement.

          16.  California Law Applicable.  This Agreement shall be governed by,
               -------------------------
and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California.

          17.  General Provisions.

               (b)  This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the
respective successors and assigns of Pledgor and Lender; provided, however, that

prior written consent and any prohibited assignment shall be absolutely void. No
consent to an assignment by Lender shall release Pledgor from its obligations to
Lender hereunder. Lender may assign its rights and duties hereunder. Lender
reserves the right to sell, assign, transfer, negotiate, or grant participations
in all or any part of, or any interest in rights and benefits hereunder. In

contained in each Section hereof applies equally to this entire Agreement.

               (d)  Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity

any rule of construction or

                                       6
<PAGE>

otherwise, by virtue of such party's having prepared the same. On the contrary,
this Agreement has been reviewed by each of the parties and their counsel and
shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the
words used so as to fairly accomplish the purposes and intentions of all parties
hereto.

              (e)  Each provision of this Agreement shall be severable from
every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the legal
enforceability of any specific provision.

              (f)  This Agreement cannot be changed or terminated orally. All
prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations,
if any, are merged into this Agreement and the other documents and written
agreements entered into in connection herewith and therewith.

OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (1) ARISING UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT, ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR
AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR (2) IN ANY WAY
CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR
ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY OTHER
INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH,
OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING
OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND
THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE AND CONSENT THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR
CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY
PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS
SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO
TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

              IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement on
the date first written.
