NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual
covenants and agreements hereinafter contained, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Authorization and Sale of Securities.

1.1 Authorization. The Company has duly authorized the issuance and sale of up
to 500,000 shares of its Series A-1 Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share
(the "Series A-1 Preferred Stock") and 5,000,000 shares of its Series A-2
Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock").
The Series A-1 Preferred Stock and the Series A-2 Preferred Stock have the
powers, designations, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and
restrictions contained in the Certificate of Designations of the Series A-1
Preferred Stock and the Series A-2 Preferred Stock, in the form of Exhibit A
hereto (the "Certificate of Designations"). The Series A-2 Preferred Stock
offered hereby is referred to herein as the "Securities". The Purchasers of the
Series A-1 Preferred Stock and the Series A-2 Preferred Stock shall have the
benefit of certain registration rights in respect of the shares of Common Stock
underlying the Securities on the terms and conditions of a Registration Rights
Agreement, in the form of Exhibit B hereto (the "Registration Rights

including, without limitation, corporations, limited liability companies,
limited or general partnerships, joint ventures, associations, joint stock
companies, trusts, unincorporated organizations, or governments or any agencies
or political subdivisions thereof (each, a "Person") who are "accredited
investors" (as defined herein). The Company is making the Offering of the
Securities directly through its officers and its directors, but may engage a
placement agent (the "Placement Agent") and other registered broker-dealers
("Other Participating Agents") may also place Securities. All subscription
proceeds will be paid at Closing to the account or accounts specified in Section
1.2 herein, provided that in the event that a Placement Agent is utilized, the
Company will utilize an escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent") for receipt of funds.
All references in this Agreement to the Escrow Agent shall be deemed to be
references to the Company in the event that there is no third party Escrow
Agent.

1.2 Subscription. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in
this Agreement, each Purchaser hereby offers to purchase, at a price of $2.50
per share, the number of shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock set forth beneath
each such Purchaser's name on the signature pages of this Agreement, for an
aggregate

set forth on the signature page beneath such Purchaser's name.

1.3 Subscription Procedures. To submit this Subscription, each Purchaser must
deliver (i) this Agreement, including, without limitation, the annexed Purchaser
Questionnaire, both duly completed and executed and (ii) an executed

The Company may accept or reject subscriptions, in whole or in part, or accept
subscriptions for less than the $50,000 minimum subscription, in its sole
discretion. The Company shall notify each Purchaser of the portion, if any, of
such Purchaser's subscription which has been accepted, payment instructions for
the purchase price, including wire transfer instructions and instructions for
delivery of payment by checks, if applicable, and the date upon which the
applicable Closing shall be held and payment must be made. At each applicable
Closing, each Purchaser acquiring Securities at such Closing shall deliver and
pay the applicable purchase price in full for the Securities being purchased by
such Purchaser at such Closing, in the amount of $2.50 for each share of Series
A-2 Preferred Stock for which such Purchaser's subscription has been accepted,
in U.S. dollars, in immediately available funds, in accordance with the payment
instructions contained in the notification to such Purchaser by the Company.

2. Closing. Upon acceptance of subscriptions for Series A-2 Preferred Stock
totaling, together with proceeds from the sale of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, at
least $3,500,000 (the "Initial Minimum Offering"), the Company shall hold a
closing of the purchase and sale of such Securities (the "Initial Closing"). The
Company may thereafter hold one or more additional closings (each closing,
including the Initial Closing, a "Closing", and the final closing the "Final
Closing") upon the purchase and sale of additional Securities until an aggregate
amount of up to $13,750,000 (the "Maximum Offering") of Series A-1 Preferred
Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock have been sold by the Company. Each Closing
shall be held at such location as the Company may determine. The Final Closing
will take place within sixty (60) days after the Initial Closing, unless the
offering which is the subject of this Agreement is extended by the Company for
up to thirty (30) additional days. The date of the Initial Closing will be
referred to as the "Initial Closing Date" and the date of the Final Closing is
referred to as the "Final Closing Date." At the Closing with respect to the
subscription by each Purchaser, to the extent the same is accepted by the
Company, the Company will register in the name of each such Purchaser that
number of Securities being purchased by such Purchaser in accordance with the
information on the applicable signature page of this Agreement.

Offering, pending each Closing all funds paid in respect of this Agreement with
regard to such Closing shall be deposited in an escrow account (the "Escrow
Account") maintained by the Escrow Agent or remitted direct to the company at
the company's designation. The Escrow Account shall not be interest bearing. If
the Company accepts subscriptions for the Securities at or prior to the Initial
Closing Date or the Final Closing Date, as the case may be, then all
subscription proceeds received for subscriptions accepted by the Company prior

<PAGE>

to such Closing Date shall be paid over to the Company at each Closing, net of
the placement agent fees, if any, and other offering expenses, which shall be
paid to the appropriate parties at each such Closing. If the Company shall not

therefrom or interest thereon, shall be promptly returned to such Purchaser.

2.2. Return of Funds. Each Purchaser hereby authorizes and directs the Escrow
Agent to return or direct the return of any funds from the Escrow Account,

authorized any Person to act as such Purchaser's Purchaser Representative (as
that term is defined in Regulation D of the General Rules and Regulations under

Stock issued upon the conversion or exercise thereof, as the case may be, if

subdivision thereof, any entity exercising executive, legislative, judicial,

against the Company or its respective assets, at law or in equity, by or before
any Governmental Authority, or by or on behalf of any third party, except for
any claim, action, suit, investigation or proceeding which would not have a
Material Adverse Effect nor does the Company have knowledge that there is any
reasonable basis for any of the foregoing. There are no claims, actions, suits,
investigations or proceedings pending or, to the Company's knowledge, threatened
proceedings against the Company contesting the right of the Company to use,
sell, import, license, or make available to any Person any of the Company's
products or services currently or previously sold, offered, licensed or made
available to any Person or used by the Company or opposing or attempting to
cancel any of the Company's Intellectual Property rights, except for any claim,
action, suit, investigation or proceeding which would not have a Material
Adverse Effect.

6.9 Compliance with Laws; No Default or Violation; Contracts. The Company is in
compliance in all material respects with all Requirements of Law and all orders
issued by any court or Governmental Authority against the Company in all
material respects. To the Company's knowledge, there is no existing or currently
proposed Requirement of Law which could reasonably be expected to prohibit or
restrict the Company from, or otherwise materially adversely affect the Company
in, conducting its business in any jurisdiction in which it now conducts or
proposes to conduct such business. The Company has all material licenses,
permits and approvals of any Governmental Authority (collectively, "Permits")
that are necessary for the conduct of the business of the Company; (ii) such
Permits are in full force and effect; and (iii) no violations are or have been
recorded in respect of any Permit. No material expenditure is presently required
by the Company to comply with any existing Requirements of Law or order. Except
as would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the
Company is not (i) in default under or in violation of any indenture, loan or
credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party of
by which it or any of its properties is bound or (ii) in violation of any order,
decree or judgment of any court, arbitrator or other Governmental Authority. The
contracts described in the Commission Documents or incorporated by reference
therein that are material to the Company (collectively, the "Contractual
Obligations") are in full force and effect on the date hereof, and neither the
Company nor, to the Company's knowledge, any other party to such contracts is in
breach of or default under any of such contracts nor, to the Company's
knowledge, does any condition exist that with notice or lapse of time or both
would constitute a default by such other party thereunder. The Company has not
received notice of a default and is not in default under, or with respect to,
any Contractual Obligation nor, to the Company's knowledge, does any condition
exist that with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a default
thereunder. All of such Contractual Obligations are valid, subsisting, in full

<PAGE>

force and effect and binding upon the Company and, to the Company's knowledge,
the other parties thereto, and the Company has paid in full or accrued all
amounts due thereunder and has satisfied in full or provided for all of its
liabilities and obligations thereunder.

6.10 Insurance. The Company maintains and will continue to maintain insurance of
the types and in the amounts that the Company reasonably believes is adequate
for its business, including, but not limited to, insurance covering all real and
personal property owned or leased by the Company against theft, damage,
destruction, acts of vandalism and all other risks customarily insured against
by similarly situated companies, all of which insurance is in full force and
effect.

6.11 Environmental Matters. The Company is in compliance, in all material
respects, with all applicable Environmental Laws. There is no civil, criminal or
administrative judgment, action, suit, demand, claim, hearing, notice of
violation, investigation, proceeding, notice or demand letter pending or, to the
Company's knowledge, threatened against the Company pursuant to Environmental
Laws. To the Company's knowledge, there are no past or present events,
conditions, circumstances, activities, practices, incidents, agreements, actions
or plans which could reasonably be expected to prevent compliance with, or which
have given rise to or will give rise to liability which would have a Material
Adverse Effect, under Environmental Laws. For purposes of the foregoing,
"Environmental Laws" means federal, state, local and foreign laws, principles of
common laws, civil laws, regulations, and codes, as well as orders, decrees,
judgments or injunctions, issued, promulgated, approved or entered thereunder
relating to pollution, protection of the environment or public health and
safety.

6.12 Taxes. The Company has paid or caused to be paid, or has established
reserves in accordance with GAAP for all Tax liabilities applicable to the
Company for all fiscal years that have not been examined and reported on by the
taxing authorities (or closed by applicable statutes). No additional Tax
assessment against the Company has been heretofore proposed or, to the Company's
knowledge, threatened by any Governmental Authority for which provision has not
been made on its balance sheet. No tax audit is currently in progress and there
is no unassessed deficiency proposed or, to the Company's knowledge, threatened
against the Company. The Company has no knowledge of any change in the rates or
basis of assessment of any Tax (other than federal income tax), of the Company
which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The
Company has not agreed to or is required to make any adjustments under section
481 of the Code by reason of a change of accounting method or otherwise. None of
the assets of the Company is required to be treated as being owned by any
Person, other than the Company or any of its subsidiaries, pursuant to the "safe
harbor" leasing provisions of Section 168(f)(8) of the Code. The company is not
a "United States real property holding corporation" (a "USRPHC") as that term is
defined in Section 897(c)(2) of the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder. For purposes of this Agreement, "Code" means the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, and "Taxes" means any federal, state, provincial,
county, local, foreign and other taxes (including, without limitation, income,
profits, windfall profits, alternative, minimum, accumulated earnings, personal
holding company, capital stock, premium, estimated, excise, sales, use,
occupancy, gross receipts, franchise, ad valorem, severance, capital levy,
production, transfer, withholding, employment, unemployment compensation,

assessments), whether or not measured in whole or in part by net income, and
including deficiencies, interest, additions to tax or interest, and penalties
with respect thereto, and including expenses associated with contesting any
proposed adjustments related to any of the foregoing.

<PAGE>

6.13 Intellectual Property.
(a) "Intellectual Property" shall mean all of the following as they are
necessary in connection with the business of the Company as presently conducted
and as they exist in all jurisdictions throughout the world, in each case, to
the extent owned by or licensed to the Company: (i) patents, patent applications
and inventions, designs and improvements described and claimed therein,
patentable inventions and other patent rights (including any divisions,
continuations, continuations-in-part, reissues, reexaminations, or interferences
thereof, whether or not patents are issued on any such applications and whether
or not any such applications are modified, withdrawn, or resubmitted)
("Patents"); (ii) trademarks, service marks, trade dress, trade names, brand
names, designs, logos, or corporate names, whether registered or unregistered,
and all registrations and applications for registration thereof ("Trademarks");
(iii) copyrights and mask works, including all renewals and extensions thereof,
copyright registrations and applications for registration thereof, and
non-registered copyrights ("Copyrights"); (iv) trade secrets, inventions,
know-how, process technology, databases, confidential business information,
customer lists, technical data and other proprietary information and rights
("Trade Secrets"); (v) computer software programs, including, without
limitation, all source code, object code, and documentation related thereto
("Software"); (vi) Internet addresses, domain names, web sites, web pages and
similar rights and items ("Internet Assets"); and (vii) all licenses,
sublicenses and other agreements or permissions including the right to receive
royalties, or any other consideration related to the property described in
(i)-(vi). The Intellectual Property contains all of the intellectual property
necessary to operate the business of the Company as currently conducted.
(b) The Company exclusively owns (or otherwise has the right to use the
Intellectual Property pursuant to a valid license, sublicense or other
agreement), free and clear of all Liens, and has the unrestricted right (subject
to any such license terms, if applicable) to use, sell, license, or sublicense
all Intellectual Property. (c) There are no issued Patents, registrations,
filings and applications for any Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights filed by the
Company. (d) There are no material licenses, sublicenses, distributor agreements
and other agreements or permissions ("IP Licenses") under which the Company is a
(i) licensor, or (ii) licensee, distributor, or reseller, except such licenses,
sublicenses and other agreements relating to off-the-shelf software which is
commercially available on a retail basis for less than $500 per license and
$25,000 in the aggregate and used solely on the computers of the Company
("Off-the-Shelf Software"). To the knowledge of the Company, all of the IP
Licenses, if any, are valid, enforceable, and in full force and effect, and,
with respect to the Company, will continue to be on identical terms immediately
following the completion of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(e) All products made, used or sold by the Company under the Patents have been
marked with the proper patent notice. (f) All products and materials made, used
or sold by the Company containing Trademarks bear the proper federal
registration notice where permitted by law. (g) All works encompassed by the
Copyrights and used by the Company have been marked with the proper copyright
notice.
(h) To the Company's knowledge, upon reasonable inquiry in accordance with sound
business practice and business judgment, all the Company's Intellectual Property
rights are valid and enforceable. The Company has taken all reasonably necessary
actions to maintain and protect each item of Intellectual Property owned by the
Company. (i) The Company has taken all reasonable precautions to protect the
secrecy, confidentiality, and value of its Trade Secrets and the proprietary
nature and value of its Intellectual Property. To the best of the Company's
knowledge, none of the Trade Secrets, wherever located, the value of which is
contingent upon maintenance of confidentiality thereof, have been disclosed to
any employee, representative or agent of the Company or any other person not
obligated to maintain such Trade

<PAGE>

Secret in confidence pursuant to a confidentiality agreement entered into with
the Company, except as required pursuant to the filing of a patent application
by the Company. (j) The Company is diligently prosecuting all Patent
applications it has filed, as instructed by patent counsel. The Company is
diligently filing and preparing to file Patent applications for all inventions
in a manner and within a sufficient time period to avoid statutory
disqualification of any potential Patent application. (k) [intentionally
omitted].
(l) Unless otherwise disclosed by the Company or pursuant to a current license,
it is not necessary for the Company's business to use any Intellectual Property
owned by any present or past director, officer, employee or consultant of the
Company (or persons the Company presently intends to hire). To the actual
knowledge of the Company's executive officers, at no time during the conception
or reduction to practice of any of the Company's Intellectual Property was any
developer, inventor or other contributor to such Intellectual Property operating
under any grants from any Governmental Authority or subject to any employment
agreement, invention and assignment, nondisclosure agreement or other
Contractual Obligation with any Person that could adversely affect the Company's
rights to its Intellectual Property.

(m) To the knowledge of the Company, upon reasonable inquiry in accordance with
sound business practice and business judgment, none of the Intellectual
Property, products or services owned, used, developed, provided, sold or
licensed by the Company, or made for, used or sold by or licensed to the Company
by any person infringes upon or otherwise violates any Intellectual Property
rights of others.

(n) To the knowledge of the Company, upon reasonable inquiry in accordance with
sound business practice and business judgment, no Person is infringing upon or
otherwise violating the Intellectual Property rights of the Company.

6.14 Employee Benefit Plans.
(a) Neither the Company nor any entity which is or was under common control
within the meaning of Section 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code maintains or
contributes to, or has within the preceding six years maintained or contributed
to, or may have any liability with respect to any employee benefit plan subject
to Title IV of Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
("ERISA"), or Section 412 of the Code or any "multiple employer plan" within the
meaning of the Code or ERISA. Each employee benefit plan, arrangement, policy,
program, agreement or commitment which the Company maintains, contributes to or
may have any liability in respect to (each, a "Plan") has been established and
administered in accordance with its terms, and complies in form and in operation
with the applicable requirements of ERISA, the Code and other applicable
Requirements of Law. No claim with respect to the administration or the
investment of the assets of any Plan (other than routine claims for benefits) is
pending. No event has occurred in connection with which the Company or any Plan,
directly or indirectly, could be subject to any material liability under ERISA,
the Code or any other law, regulation or governmental order applicable to any
Plan, or under any agreement, instrument, statute, rule of law or regulation
pursuant to or under which the Company has agreed to indemnify any person
against liability incurred under, or for a violation or failure to satisfy the
requirement of, any such statute, regulation or order. The Company has no
liability, whether absolute or contingent, including any obligations under any
Plan, with respect to any misclassification of any person as an independent
contractor rather than as an employee. (b) The Company does not have any
obligations to provide or any direct or indirect liability, whether contingent
or otherwise, with respect to the provision of health or death benefits to or in
respect of any former employee, except as may be required pursuant to Section
4980B of the Code and the corresponding provisions of ERISA and the cost of
which are fully paid by such

<PAGE>

former employees. (c) There are no unfunded obligations under any Plan which are
not fully reflected on the Financial Statements. 6.15 Investment Company. The
Company is not an "investment company" or an "affiliated person" of, or
"promoter" or "principal underwriter" for an investment company, within the
meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

6.16 Compliance. The Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the
Exchange Act, and is listed on the OTC bulletin board, and the Company has taken
no action designed to, or likely to have the effect of, terminating the
registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act or delisting the Common
Stock from the OTC Bulletin Board. The Company has not taken and will not, in
violation of applicable law, take, any action designed to or that might
reasonably be expected to cause or result in unlawful manipulation of the price
of the Common Stock to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities.

6.17 Private Offerings. Assuming the truth of each Purchaser's representations
and acknowledgments contained in Section 5 hereof, neither the Company nor any
Person acting on its behalf (other than the Purchasers, as to whom the Company
makes no representations) has offered or sold the Securities by means of any
general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c)
under the Securities Act. The Company has not sold the Securities to anyone
other than the subscribers to this Agreement. Each Security shall bear
substantially the same legend set forth in Section 8 hereof for at least so long
as required by the Securities Act.

6.18 Broker's or Finder's Commissions. Other than the Placement Agent (as
placement agent on behalf of the Company) or any Other Participating Agent, no
finder, broker, agent, financial person or other intermediary has acted on
behalf of the Company in connection with the sale of the Securities by the
Company or the consummation of this Agreement or any of the transactions
contemplated hereby. The Company has not had any direct or indirect contact with
any other investment banking firm (or similar firm) with respect to the offer of
the Securities by the Company to the Purchasers or the Purchasers' subscriptions
for the Securities.

6.19 Disclosure. The Transaction Documents do not contain any untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make
the statements contained herein or therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading. The Company does not have any
knowledge of any fact that has specific application to the Company (other than
general economic or industry conditions) and that can reasonably be foreseen to
cause a Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth in the Transaction
Documents or the Commission Documents.

The Company certifies that each of the foregoing representations and warranties
by the Company sets forth in this Section 6 are true as of the date hereof and
shall survive such date as contemplated in Section 7.1.

7. Indemnification.
7.1 The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchasers, their
affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, general and limited
partners, principals, agents and attorneys (individually, an "Indemnified Party"
and collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from and against any and all
losses, claims, damages, Liabilities, costs (including reasonable attorneys'
fees) and expenses (collectively, "Losses") to which any Indemnified Party may
become subject, insofar as such Losses arise out of, in any way relate to, or
result from (i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company
contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement, or (ii) the failure of the
Company to fulfill any agreement or covenant contained in or made pursuant to

<PAGE>

this Agreement. All of the representations and warranties of the Company made
herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement until the date
that is ninety (90) days after the filing by the Company with the Commission of
audited financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ending February
28, 2004 (or, if such fiscal year changes and no such audited consolidated
financial statements are available, then the successor fiscal year), except for
(a) Sections 6.1 (Organization, Good Standing and Qualification), 6.2
(Capitalization), 6.3 (Corporate Power, Authorization; Enforceability), 6.18
(Private Offerings) and 6.19 (Broker's or Finder's Commission), which
representations and warranties shall survive indefinitely (or if indefinite
survival is not permitted by law, then for the maximum period permitted by
applicable law), (b) Section 6.12 (Taxes), which representation and warranty
shall survive until the later to occur of (i) the lapse of the statute of
limitations with respect to the assessment of any tax to which such
representation and warranty relates (including any extensions or waivers
thereof) and (ii) sixty (60) days after the final administrative or judicial
determination of the Taxes to which such representation and warranty relates,
and no claim with respect to Section 6.12 may be asserted thereafter with the
exception of claims arising out of any fact, circumstance, action or proceeding
to which the party asserting such claim shall have given notice to the other
parties to this Agreement prior to the termination of such period of reasonable
belief that a tax liability will subsequently arise therefrom, and (c) Section
6.11 (Environmental Matters), which representation and warranty shall survive
until the lapse of the applicable statute of limitations. Except as set forth
herein, all of the covenants, agreements and obligations of the parties hereto
shall survive the Closing indefinitely (or if indefinite survival is not
permitted by law, then for the maximum period permitted by applicable law).

7.2 Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party under Section 7.1 of notice
of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, including, without limitation,
the commencement of any action or proceeding, the Indemnified Party will, if a
claim in respect thereof may be made against the indemnifying party under this
Section, promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement
thereof; provided that the failure of the Indemnified Party to so notify the
indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from its obligations
under this Section unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in
the indemnifying party's forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses or being
materially prejudiced by the Indemnified Person's failure to give such notice.
In case any action or proceeding is brought against any Indemnified Party, and
it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying
party shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with
counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in its reasonable approval (which
approval will not be withheld or delayed unreasonably); provided, however, that
any Indemnified Party may, at its own expense, retain separate counsel to
participate in such defense at its own expense. After notice from the
indemnifying party to the Indemnified Party of its election to so assume the
defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be Liable to the Indemnified
Party under that Section 7 for any legal or any other expenses subsequently
incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof (other
than reasonable costs of investigation) unless incurred at the written request
of the indemnifying party. Notwithstanding the above, the Indemnified Party will
have the right to employ counsel of its own choice in any action or proceeding
(and be reimbursed by the indemnifying party for the reasonable fees and
expenses of the counsel and other reasonable costs of the defense) if, in the
written opinion of such Indemnified Party's counsel, representation of the
Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be
inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests or conflicts
between the Indemnified Party and any other party represented by the counsel in
the action; provided, however, that the indemnifying party will not in
connection with any one action or proceeding or separate but substantially
similar actions or proceedings arising out of the same general allegations, be
Liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of

<PAGE>

attorneys at any time for all Indemnified Parties, except to the extent that
local counsel, in addition to regular counsel, is required in order to
effectively defend against the action or proceeding. An indemnifying party will
not be Liable to any Indemnified Party for any settlement or entry of judgment
concerning any action or proceeding effected without the consent of the
indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The
indemnifying party agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of
the Indemnified Party, settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any
judgment in any pending or threatened claim relating to the matters contemplated
hereby (if any Indemnified Party is a party thereto or has been actually
threatened to be made a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise or
consent includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all
liability arising or that may arise out of such claim. The rights accorded to an
Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in addition to any rights that any
Indemnified Party may have at common law, by separate agreement or otherwise;
provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, (a) nothing in this Section 7 shall
restrict or limit any rights that any Indemnified Party may have to seek
equitable relief and (b) this Section 7 shall be the sole remedy for any breach
of the Company's representations and warranties contained in Section 6 except
with respect to claims arising out of fraud or willful misconduct.

8. Covenants.
8.1 Use of Proceeds. The Company will use the proceeds from this Offering to pay
indebtedness to certain MAM Shareholders, to make a loan to Car Parts
Technologies Inc, for partial consideration in the acquisition of Epyx Limited
and for general corporate purposes, provided that in the event that the proceeds

U.S.$6,000,000, the Company does not presently intend to proceed with the

8.2 Business Development. As soon as practicable after the Closing, the Company
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to: (a) create and implement an annual

associated with the Company's business that are customarily insured against in

available the services of its officers and employees and preserve its current
relationships with customers, suppliers, licensors, creditors and others having
business dealings with it.

8.5 Reasonable Best Efforts. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, each of the parties hereto will use its reasonable best efforts to
take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all
things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws and regulations to
consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement at the earliest
practicable date.

8.7 Tax Matters.

to become a USRPHC at any time while any Purchaser owns any of the Securities.
(c) In the event that a Purchaser desires to sell or dispose of any of the
Securities or Conversion Stock as permitted under this Agreement and applicable

<PAGE>

law, and upon demand by such Purchaser, the Company agrees to deliver to such
Purchaser a letter (the "Letter") which complies with Sections 1.1445- 2(c)(3)
and 1.897-2(h) of the Treasury Regulations, addressed to such Purchaser, stating
whether or not the Company is a USRPHC. The Letter shall be delivered to the
Purchaser one business day prior to the close of any sale or disposition of the
Securities or Conversion Stock by the Purchaser (the "Delivery Date"). The
Letter shall be dated as of the Delivery Date and signed by a corporate officer
who must verify under penalties of perjury that the statement is correct to his
knowledge and belief pursuant to Section 1.897-2(h) of the Treasury Regulations.

FORM OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT.VI

EXHIBIT C TO FORM OF SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT

MATTERS TO BE COVERED IN LEGAL OPINION OF COMPANY'S COUNSEL

1. The Company is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

2. The Company has all necessary corporate power and authority to execute,
deliver, enter into and perform its obligations under each of the Transaction
Documents and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, including,

<PAGE>

without limitation, to issue, sell and deliver the Series A Preferred Stock and
the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof. The execution,
delivery and performance of each of the Transaction Documents has been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company.

3. The Transaction Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the
Company and constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company,
enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to laws of
general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of debtors
and rules of law governing specific performance, injunctive relief or other
equitable remedies, and to limitations of public policy.

4. The Securities and the shares of Common Stock into which they are convertible
have been duly authorized and, when issued in accordance with the Securities
Purchase Agreement or the Certificate of Designations, as applicable, will be
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and will be free and clear of all
Liens imposed by or through the Company other than restrictions imposed by the
Securities Purchase Agreement, the Certificate of Designations, and applicable
securities laws. No statutory or, to our actual knowledge based solely upon the
representations and warranties of the Company in the Transaction Documents and
upon an officers' certificate from an officer of the Company, contractual
preemptive or other rights to subscribe for or purchase equity securities of the
Company exists with respect to the issuance and sale of the Securities by the
Company pursuant to the Transaction Documents.

5. The execution and delivery by the Company of the Transaction Documents do not
and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby will not (A)
violate any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws of the
Company, (B) violate any law, statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or
decree of any court or Governmental Authority which, to our knowledge, is
applicable to the Company, or (C) to our actual knowledge based solely upon the
representations and warranties of the Company in the Transaction Documents and
upon an officers' certificate from an officer of the Company, breach or
constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, any
material agreement to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound or to
which any of its properties or assets is subject, nor result in the creation or
imposition of any Lien, other than Permitted Liens, upon any of the properties
or assets of the Company, except for, in the case of clauses (B) and (C), any
violation, breach or default which would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

6. Except for filings, authorizations or approvals contemplated by the
Securities Purchase Agreement, no authorizations or approvals of, and no filings
with, any Governmental Authority are necessary or required by the Company for
the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents or the consummation of
the transactions contemplated thereby..vii

7. The Company is not an "investment company" within the meaning of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

8. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Purchasers
in the Securities Purchase Agreement, the offer and sale of the Securities is
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, pursuant to Section 4(2) and/or Rule 506 under Regulation D of the
Securities Act. The opinion will set forth the Firm's customary assumptions and
qualifications. The opinion will only be given as to matters of New York law and
U.S. federal law, and Delaware General Corporation law. For clarity, we note
that the Company is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of
Delaware but its principal business operations are in Europe and in States other

<PAGE>

than New York and Delaware, and its subsidiaries are organized under the laws of
other jurisdictions, and we will not opine on such laws.EXHIBIT 10.21

                          REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of July 18, 2003 (this "AGREEMENt"), by
and among Auto Data Network, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANy"), and
the Purchasers (as defined below).

W I T N E S S E T H :

WHEREAS, the Company is offering (the "OFFERING") an aggregate of up to
[______________________________] of shares of its Series A-2 Preferred Stock,
par value $.001 per share (the "SERIES A-2 PREFERRED STOCk"), exercisable for
shares of Common Stock (the "SECURITIEs");

WHEREAS, the Company desires to issue and sell to the persons listed on Schedule
A, attached hereto (each a "PURCHASEr," and collectively, the "PURCHASERs"), the
Securities as set forth in one or more Securities Purchase Agreements entered
into or to be entered into by and between the Company and each Purchaser (the
"SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENt");

WHEREAS, the Company and the Purchasers have entered or will have entered into a
Securities Purchase Agreement;

WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement that the Company provide for
the rights set forth in this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, certain terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 3 hereof.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual
covenants and agreements hereinafter contained, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Registration Rights.

1.1 Required Registration. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
prepare and file with the SEC within one hundred twenty (120) days following the
Initial Closing Date (as such term is defined in the Securities Purchase
Agreement) or the termination of the Offering, if no final Closing (as such term

<PAGE>

is defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) is held, as the case may be, a
registration statement on Form SB-1 or successor form or another form selected
by the Company that is available to it under the Securities Act which conforms
with all applicable rules and regulations (the "REQUIRED REGISTRATION
STATEMENt") with respect to all the Registerable Securities beneficially owned
by the Purchasers following the final Closing (as such term is defined in the
Securities Purchase Agreement) to permit the offer and re-sale from time to time
of such Registerable Securities in accordance with the methods of distribution
provided by the Purchasers. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
cause the Required Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as
reasonably practicable thereafter, and in any event no later than December 31,
2003. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Required
Registration Statement continuously effective (the "EFFECTIVE PERIOD") for a
period of one year after the Required Registration Statement first becomes
effective plus whatever period of time as shall equal any period, if any, during
such one year period in which the Company was not current with its reporting
requirements under the Exchange Act. To the extent that the Registerable
Securities are not sold under the Required Registration Statement, the
Purchasers shall have the registration rights as enumerated in Sections 1.2, 1.3
and 1.4.

1.2 Demand Registrations.
(a) Requests for Registration. Subject to Sections 1.2(b) and 1.2(e) below, the
Purchasers holding at least 33% of the Registrable Securities (the "INITIATING
HOLDERs") may at any time after the completion of the Effective Period, or if
the Required Registration Statement has not been effective for more than ninety
(90) days immediately preceding any request under this Section 1.2(a), request
registration under the Securities Act of all or part of their Registrable
Securities on Form S-1, Form S-2 or any successor form of registration, or, if
available, on Form S-3 or any successor form of registration; provided that the
Initiating Holders (together with all other holders of Registrable Securities to
be included in such registration) propose to sell Registrable Securities to the
public of the greater of (i) an aggregate price (calculated based upon the
Market Price of the Registrable Securities on the date of filing of the
Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities) to the
public of at least $1,000,000, or (ii) at least 25% of the then outstanding
Registrable Securities or, if less than (i) or (ii), then (iii) the remaining
Registrable Securities. Each such registration request shall specify the number
of Registrable Securities requested to be registered and if the offering is to
be an underwritten offering. Within ten (10) days after receipt of any such
request, the Company will give written notice of such requested registration to
all other holders of Registrable Securities and, subject to the provisions
hereof, will include in such registration all Registrable Securities with
respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein
within fifteen (15) days after the holder's receipt of the Company's notice. A
registration requested pursuant to this Section 1.2(a) are referred to herein as
a "DEMAND REGISTRATION." (b) Number of Registrations. The Purchasers and their
permitted transferees are entitled to request two (2) Demand Registrations, in
the aggregate; provided that if the Company is eligible to file a registration
statement on Form S-3, then

<PAGE>

the Initiating Holders shall not request a registration on Form S-1. The Company
shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any such Demand Registration to
become effective promptly, and in any event no later than one hundred (100) days
after it receives a request under Section 1.2(a) hereof; provided, that such one
hundred (100) day period shall be reduced to sixty (60) days if the Company is
filing a Registration Statement on Form S-3. Except as provided in Section
1.2(c) below, a registration shall not constitute a Demand Registration until it
has become effective and remains continuously effective for the lesser of (i)
the period during which all Registrable Securities registered in the Demand
Registration are sold and (ii) 105 days; provided, however, that a registration
shall not constitute a Demand Registration if (x) after such Demand Registration
has become effective, such registration or the related offer, sale or
distribution of Registrable Securities thereunder is interfered with by any stop
order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other governmental
agency or court for any reason not attributable to the Initiating Holders and
such interference is not thereafter eliminated or (y) the conditions specified
in the underwriting agreement, if any, entered into in connection with such
Demand Registration are not satisfied or waived, other than by reason of a
failure by the Initiating Holders. (c) Withdrawal. If a holder of Registrable
Securities (each a "DESIGNATED HOLDEr" and collectively, the "DESIGNATED
HOLDERs") sends the Company a written request for inclusion of part or all of
such Designated Holder's Registrable Securities in a registration, such
Designated Holder shall not be entitled to withdraw or revoke such request
without the prior written consent of the Company unless the Designated Holders
reimburse the Company for the registration expenses set forth in Section 1.6(s)
with respect to such Demand Registration. If the Designated Holders fail to
reimburse the Company for such registration expenses, including, but not limited
to legal and accounting expenses, within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice
of such registration expenses, then such request shall constitute a Demand
Registration, unless such withdrawal or revocation was due to a material adverse
change to the Company. (d) Priority in Demand Registrations. If a Demand
Registration is an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise
the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of Registrable
Securities and, if permitted hereunder, other securities requested to be
included in such offering, exceeds the number of Registrable Securities and
other securities, if any, which can be sold therein without materially and
adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (the "OFFERING QUANTITy"),
then the Company will include in such registration securities in the following
priority:

(i) First, for a demand made by the Initiating Holders, all Registrable
Securities owned by the Initiating Holders and the number of shares to be
offered for the account of all other Designated Holders, pro rata, based on the
amount of Registrable Securities held by each such holder and the amount of
Registrable Securities held by all such holders, on an as converted basis. To
the extent more than 22.5% of the Registrable Securities, so requested to be
registered by the Initiating Holders and the other Designated Holders are
excluded from an offering under this Section 1.2(d) (a "RELOAD EVENt"), then the
Designated Holders shall have the right to one additional Demand Registration
under, and subject to the limitations of, Section 3.1

<PAGE>

upon the occurrence of each Reload Event (but in no event shall the number of
Demand Registrations pursuant to this Agreement exceed a total of three Demand
Registrations). (ii) Second, the number of shares to be offered for the account
of the Company. (iii) Third, to the extent (and only to the extent) that the
Offering Quantity exceeds the aggregate amount of securities to be sold in
clauses (i) and (ii), the Company will include in such registration any other
Registrable Securities requested to be included in such offering, and if the
number of such other holders' securities requested to be included exceeds the
Offering Quantity, then the Company shall include only each such requesting
holder's pro rata share of the Offering Quantity, based on the amount of
securities held by such holder, on an as converted basis; provided, that no
shares under clauses (ii) and (iii) shall be included on the holder's first
Demand Registration on Form S-3.

(e) Restrictions on Demand Registrations. The Company will not be obligated to
effect any Demand Registration within 120 days after the effective date of a
previous Demand Registration or other registration of securities of the Company
(other than a shelf registration under Rule 415 of the Securities Act or a
Registration Statement on Form S-8) for the account of the Initiating Holders
(so long as at least two-thirds of the Registrable Securities requested to be
included in such registration by the Initiating Holders were included) or any
other Designated Holder (so long as they had the opportunity to participate in
such registration and at least two-thirds of the Registrable Securities
requested to be included in such registration by the Designated Holders were
included). Such 120-day period shall be reduced to seventy five (75) days, if
less than two-thirds of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered
are included in such registration. In addition, the Company will not be
obligated to effect more than one Demand Registration within a nine (9) month
period.

(f) Selection of Underwriters. In connection with a Demand Registration that is
an underwritten offering, at the request of the Initiating Holders or otherwise,
the Company shall select a nationally recognized investment banking firm to
administer the offering, such selection to be subject to the approval of the
Initiating Holders which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

1.3 Form S-3 Registration. If the Company is eligible to use Form S-3 under the
Securities Act (or any similar successor form) and shall receive from a
Purchaser and its permitted transferees (the "S-3 INITIATING HOLDERs") a written
request or requests that the Company effect a registration on such Form S-3,
including without limitation, pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act and any
related qualification or compliance with respect to all or part of the
Registrable Securities owned by the S-3 Initiating Holders and its permitted
transferees (provided, that the S-3 Initiating Holders registering Registrable
Securities in such registration (together with all other holders of Registrable
Securities to be included in such registration) propose to sell their
Registrable Securities at an aggregate price (calculated based upon the Market
Price of the Registrable Securities on the date of filing of the Form S-3 with
respect to such Registrable Securities) to the public of no less than
$1,000,000), the Company shall (i) promptly give written notice of the proposed

<PAGE>

registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other holders
of Registrable Securities; and (ii) as soon as practicable, use reasonable best
efforts to file and effect such registration and all such qualifications and
compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale
and distribution of all or such portion of the Registrable Securities as are
specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable
Securities of any other holder in the group of holders joining in such request
as is specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days after the
holder's receipt of such written notice from the Company. No registration
requested by any S-3 Initiating Holders pursuant to this Section 1.3 shall be
deemed a registration pursuant to Sections 1.1 or 1.2.

1.4 Piggyback Registrations.
(a) Right to Piggyback. Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its
securities under the Securities Act (other than pursuant to a Demand
Registration, a registration pursuant to Section 1.3 or a registration on Form
S-4 or S-8 or any successor or similar forms) and the registration form to be
used may be used for the registration of Registrable Securities, whether or not
for sale for its own account, the Company will give prompt written notice (but
in no event less than twenty five (25) days before the anticipated filing date)
to all holders of Registrable Securities, and such notice shall describe the
proposed registration and distribution and offer to all holders of Registrable
Securities the opportunity to register the number of Registrable Securities as
each such holder may request. The Company will include in such registration all
Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written
requests for inclusion therein within fifteen (15) days after the holders'
receipt of the Company's notice (a "PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION").

(b) Reasonable Efforts. The Company shall use all reasonable best efforts to
cause the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed underwritten
offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a
Piggyback Registration to be included on the same terms and conditions as any
similar securities of the Company or any other security holder included therein
and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in
accordance with the intended method of distribution thereof.

(c) Withdrawal. Any Designated Holder shall have the right to withdraw its
request for inclusion of its Registrable Securities in any Registration
Statement pursuant to this Section 1.4 by giving written notice to the Company
of its request to withdraw; provided, that in the event of such withdrawal
(other than pursuant to Section 1.4(f) hereof, the Company shall not be required
to reimburse such holder for the fees and expenses referred to in Section 1.6(s)
hereof incurred by such holder prior to such withdrawal, unless such withdrawal
was due to a material adverse change to the Company. The Company may withdraw a
Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the time it becomes effective.

(d) Priority in Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten
primary registration on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriters

<PAGE>

advise the Company in writing (with a copy to each party hereto requesting
registration of Registrable Securities) that in their opinion the number of
Registrable Securities requested to be included on a secondary basis in such
registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without
materially and adversely affecting the marketability of such primary or
secondary offering (the "COMPANY OFFERING QUANTITY"), then the Company will
include in such registration securities in the following priority:

(i) First, the Company will include the securities the Company roposes to sell.
(ii) Second, the Company will include all Registrable Securities equested to be
included by any Designated Holder, and if the number of such Designated holders'
securities requested to be included exceeds the Company Offering Quantity, then
the Company shall include only each such requesting Designated Holders' pro rata
share of the shares available for registration by the Purchaser, based on the
amount of ecurities held by such holder, on an as converted basis.
(e) Cutback. If, as a result of the proration provisions of this Section 1.4,
any designated Holders shall not be entitled to include all Registrable
Securities in a Piggyback registration that such Designated Holders has
requested to be included, such holder may elect to withdraw his request to
include Registrable Securities in such registration but the Company shall be
required to reimburse such holder for the fees and expenses referred to in
Section 1.7(b) hereof incurred by such holder prior to such withdrawal.

1.5 Holdback Agreements.
(a) To the extent not inconsistent with applicable law, upon the request of the
Company or, in the case of an underwritten public offering, the underwriters
managing such underwritten offering of the Company's securities, each holder of
Registrable Securities who owns at least 5% of the outstanding capital stock of
the Company on an "as-converted" basis or is an officer or director of the
Company will not effect any public sale or distribution (other than those
included in the registration) of any securities of the Company, or any
securities, options or rights convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable
for such securities during the fourteen days prior to and the ninety (90) -day
period beginning on such effective date, unless (in the case of an underwritten
public offering) the managing underwriters otherwise agree to a shorter period
of time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Designated Holder shall be required
to enter into any such "lock up" agreement unless and until all of the Company's
executive officers and directors execute identical "lock up" agreements and the
Company uses commercially reasonable efforts to cause each holder of more than
5% of its outstanding capital stock to execute identical "lock up" agreements.
Neither the Company nor the underwriter shall amend, terminate or waive a "lock
up" agreement unless each "lock up" agreement with a Designated Holder is also
amended or waived in a similar manner or terminated, as the case may be.

(b) The Company shall have the right at any time to require that the Designated
Holders of Registrable Securities suspend further open market offers and sales
of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement filed hereunder
whenever in the reasonable judgment of the Company after consultation with
counsel there is or may be in existence a Changing Event (as defined in Section

<PAGE>

1.6(e)). The Company will give the Designated Holders notice of any such
suspension and will use all reasonable best efforts to minimize the length of
such suspension.

(c) The Company agrees not to effect any public sale or distribution of any of
its securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or
exercisable for such securities (except pursuant to registrations on Form S-4 or
S-8 or any successor thereto), during the period beginning on the effective date
of any Registration Statement in which the Designated Holders of Registrable
Securities are participating and ending on the earlier of (i) the date on which
all Registrable Securities registered on such Registration Statement are sold
and (ii) forty five (45) days after the effective date of such Registration
Statement (except securities covered by such Registration Statement).

1.6 Registration Procedures. Whenever any Registrable Securities are required to
be registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will use reasonable best
efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Registrable Securities
in accordance with the intended methods of disposition thereof, and pursuant
thereto the Company will as expeditiously as possible:

(a) prepare and file with the SEC on any form, if not so otherwise provided for,
for which the Company qualifies, as soon as practicable after the end of the
period within which requests for registration may be given to the Company, a
Registration Statement with respect to the offer and sale of such Registrable
Securities and thereafter use reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration
Statement to become effective and remain effective until the completion of the
distribution contemplated thereby or the required time period under this
Agreement, whichever is shorter (and before filing such Registration Statement,
the Company will furnish to the counsel selected by the holders of a majority of
the Registrable Securities initiating such Registration Statement copies of all
such documents proposed to be filed); provided, however, that the Company may
postpone for not more than sixty (60) calendar days the filing or effectiveness
of a Demand Registration Statement if the Board of Directors, in its good faith
judgment, determines that such registration could reasonably be expected to have
a material adverse effect on the Company and its stockholders including, but not
limited to, any proposal or plan by the Company to engage in any acquisition of
assets (other than in the ordinary course of business) or any merger,
consolidation, tender offer or similar transaction then under consideration (in
which event, the Designated Holders shall be entitled to withdraw such request,
and if such request is withdrawn such registration will not count as a Demand
Registration) by delivering written notice to the Designated Holders who
requested inclusion of Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement of
its determination to postpone such Registration Statement; provided, further,
that (i) the Company shall not disclose any information that could be deemed
material non-public information to any holder of Registrable Securities included
in a Registration Statement that is subject to such postponement, (ii) in no
event may the Company postpone a filing requested hereunder more than twice in
any twelve (12) month period; provided, that any two postponements must be at
least three (3) months apart; provided, further, that the Company shall delay
the effectiveness of any Demand Registration Statement if the SEC rules and

<PAGE>

regulations prohibit the Company from declaring a Registration Statement
effective because its financial statements are stale at a time when its fiscal
year has ended or it has made an acquisition reportable under Item 2 of Form 8-K
or any other similar situation until the earliest time in which the SEC would

permitted by law, each holder of Registrable Securities and its general or
limited partners, officers, directors, members, managers, employees, advisors,
representatives, agents and Affiliates (collectively, the "REPRESENTATIVEs")
from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability, attorney's fees, cost or
expense and costs and expenses of investigating and defending any such claim
(collectively, the "LOSSEs"), joint or several, and any action in respect
thereof to which such holder of Registrable Securities or its Representatives
may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such Losses
(or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereto)
arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary
or summary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) any
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and
the Company shall reimburse each such holder of Registrable Securities and its
Representatives for any legal or any other expenses incurred by them in
connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any
such Loss, action or proceeding; provided, however, that the Company shall not
be liable to any such holder or other indemnity in any such case to the extent
that any such Loss (or action or proceeding, whether commenced or threatened, in
respect thereof) arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, made in such Registration
Statement, any such prospectus or preliminary or summary prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon, and in conformity with,
written information prepared and furnished to the Company by such holder of
Registrable Securities or its Representatives expressly for use therein or by
failure of such holder of Registrable Securities to deliver a copy of the
Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto
after the Company has furnished such holder of Registrable Securities with a
sufficient number of copies of the same. In connection with an underwritten
offering, the Company will indemnify such underwriters, their officers and
directors and each Person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of
the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the
indemnification of the holders of Registrable Securities.
(b) In connection with any Registration Statement in which the holders of
Registrable Securities are participating pursuant to this Agreement, the holders
of Registrable Securities will furnish to the Company in writing such
information as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any
such Registration Statement or prospectus and, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, each such holder of Registrable Securities will indemnify and hold
harmless the Company and its Representatives from and against any Losses,
severally but not jointly, and any action in respect thereof to which the
Company and its Representatives may become subject under the Securities Act or
otherwise, insofar as such Losses (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced

<PAGE>

or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) the
purchase or sale of Registrable Securities during a suspension as set forth in
Section 1.5(b) after written receipt of notice of such suspension, (ii) any
untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary or summary prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto, or (iii) any omission or alleged omission of a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, but, with respect to clauses (ii) and (iii) above, only
to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is made in such
Registration Statement, any such prospectus or preliminary or summary prospectus
or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information prepared and furnished to the Company by such holder of
Registrable Securities expressly for use therein or by failure of such holder of
Registrable Securities to deliver a copy of the Registration Statement or
prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto after the Company has
furnished such holder of Registrable Securities with a sufficient number of
copies of the same, and such holder of Registrable Securities will reimburse the
Company and each Representative for any legal or any other expenses incurred by
them in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend
against any such Loss, action or proceeding; provided, however, that such holder
of Registrable Securities shall not be liable in any such case to the extent
that prior to the filing of any such Registration Statement or prospectus or
amendment or supplement thereto, such holder of Registrable Securities has
furnished in writing to the Company information expressly for use in such
Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto
which corrected or made not misleading information previously furnished to the
Company; provided, further, however, that the obligation to indemnify will be
individual to each such holder of registrable Securities and will be limited to
the net amount of proceeds received by such holder of Registrable Securities
from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.

(c) Promptly after receipt by any Person in respect of which indemnity may be
sought pursuant to Section 1.7(a) or 1.7(b) (an "INDEMNIFIED PARTy") of notice
of any claim or the commencement of any action, the Indemnified Party shall, if
a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Person against whom such
indemnity may be sought (an "INDEMNIFYING PARTy"), promptly notify the
Indemnifying Party in writing of the claim or the commencement of such action;
provided, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve
the Indemnifying Party from any liability which it may have to an Indemnified
Party otherwise than under Section 1.7(a) or 1.7(b) except to the extent of any
actual prejudice resulting therefrom. If any such claim or action shall be
brought against an Indemnified Party, and it shall notify the Indemnifying Party
thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate therein, and,
to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified
Indemnifying Party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party
to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or
action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for
any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in
connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of

<PAGE>

investigation; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to
employ separate counsel to represent the Indemnified Party and its
Representatives who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in
respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against the
Indemnifying Party, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be for the
account of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party and the
Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or
(ii) in the written opinion of counsel to such Indemnified Party, representation
of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or
potential conflicts of interest between them, it being understood, however, that
the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one such claim or
action or separate but substantially similar or related claims or actions in the
same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances,
be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys
(together with appropriate local counsel) at any time for all Indemnified
Parties. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the
Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened
proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have been a
party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party,
unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified
Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding other than the
payment of monetary damages by the Indemnifying Party on behalf of the
Indemnified Party. Whether or not the defense of any claim or action is assumed
by the Indemnifying Party, such Indemnifying Party will not be subject to any
liability for any settlement made without its consent, which consent will not be
unreasonably withheld.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.7 is unavailable to
the Indemnified Parties in respect of any Losses referred to herein, then each
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
benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the holders of the
Registrable Securities on the other from the offering of the Registrable
Securities, or if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law, in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits but also
the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the holders of the
Registrable Securities on the other in connection with the statements or
omissions which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of each
holder of the Registrable Securities on the other shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether any action taken, including any untrue
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, or the omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such party,
and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and
the holders of the Registrable Securities agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 1.7(d) were determined by pro
rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account
of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the
Losses referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to
include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses

<PAGE>

reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating
or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 1.7, no holder of the Registrable Securities shall be required to
contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which
the Registrable Securities of such holder were offered to the public exceeds the
amount of any Losses which such holder has otherwise paid by reason of such
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 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. Each holder's obligations to
contribute pursuant to his Section 1.7 is several in the proportion that the
proceeds of the offering received by such holder of the Registrable Securities
bears to the total proceeds of the offering received by all the holders of the
Registrable Securities and not joint.

1.8 Participation in Underwritten Registrations.
(a) No Person may participate in any registration hereunder which is
underwritten unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person's securities on
the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Person or
Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements (including, without
limitation, pursuant to the terms of any over-allotment or "green shoe" option
requested by the managing underwriter(s), provided, that each holder of
Registrable Securities shall not be required to sell more than the number of
Registrable Securities that such holder has requested the Company to include in
any registration) and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably
required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements and this Agreement.

(b) Each Person that is participating in any registration hereunder agrees that,
upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the
kind described in Section 1.6(e) above, such Person will forthwith discontinue
the disposition of its Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration
Statement until such Person's receipt of the copies of a supplemented or amended
prospectus as contemplated by such Section 1.6(e).

1.9 Current Public Information. The Company covenants that it will file all
reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act
and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder, and will use
reasonable best efforts to take such further action as the Purchaser may
reasonably request, all to the extent required to enable the holders of
Registrable Securities to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 or
Rule 144A adopted by the SEC under the Securities Act or any similar rule or
