                                  MISCELLANEOUS

               3.1. No waiver or any breach of any covenant or provision herein
contained shall be deemed a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach
thereof, or of any other covenant or provision herein contained. No extension of

mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, and shall be deemed received
upon receipt thereof, as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

               3.2. This Escrow Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure
to the benefit of the permitted successors and permitted assigns of the parties
hereto.

               3.3. This Escrow Agreement is the final expression of, and
contains the entire agreement between, the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings with respect thereto. This
Escrow Agreement may not be modified, changed, supplemented or terminated, nor
may any obligations hereunder be waived, except by written instrument signed by
the parties to be charged or by their respective agents duly authorized in
writing or as otherwise expressly permitted herein.

               3.4. Whenever required by the context of this Escrow Agreement,
the singular shall include the plural and masculine shall include the feminine.
This Escrow Agreement shall not be construed as if it had been prepared by one
of the parties, but rather as if both parties had prepared the same. Unless
otherwise indicated, all references to Articles are to this Escrow Agreement.

               3.5. The parties hereto expressly agree that this Escrow
Agreement shall be governed by, interpreted under and construed and enforced in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York. Except as expressly set forth

more

                                       3

fully set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

               3.6. The Escrow Agent's duties hereunder may be altered, amended,
modified or revoked only by a writing signed by the Company, each Investor and
the Escrow Agent.

               3.7. The Escrow Agent shall be obligated only for the performance
of such duties as are specifically set forth herein and may rely and shall be
protected in relying or refraining from acting on any instrument reasonably
believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine and to have been signed or presented
by the proper party or parties. The Escrow Agent shall not be personally liable
for any act the Escrow Agent may do or omit to do hereunder as the Escrow Agent
while acting in good faith, excepting only its own gross negligence or willful
misconduct, and any act done or omitted by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the
advice of the Escrow Agent's attorneys-at-law (other than Escrow Agent itself)
shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith.

               3.8. The Escrow Agent is hereby expressly authorized to disregard
any and all warnings given by any of the parties hereto or by any other person
or corporation, excepting only orders or process of courts of law and is hereby
expressly authorized to comply with and obey orders, judgments or decrees of any
court. In case the Escrow Agent obeys or complies with any such order, judgment
or decree, the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or
to any other person, firm or corporation by reason of such decree being
subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside, vacated or found to have
been entered without jurisdiction.

               3.9. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable in any respect on

counsel and other experts as the Escrow Agent may deem necessary properly to
advise the Escrow Agent in connection with the Escrow Agent's duties hereunder,
may rely upon the advice of such counsel, and may pay such counsel reasonable
compensation therefor. THE ESCROW AGENT HAS ACTED AS LEGAL COUNSEL FOR THE
INVESTOR, AND MAY CONTINUE TO ACT AS LEGAL COUNSEL FOR THE INVESTOR, FROM TIME
TO TIME, NOTWITHSTANDING ITS DUTIES AS THE ESCROW AGENT HEREUNDER. THE COMPANY
CONSENTS TO THE ESCROW AGENT IN SUCH CAPACITY AS LEGAL COUNSEL FOR THE INVESTORS
AND WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT SUCH REPRESENTATION REPRESENTS A CONFLICT OF INTEREST
ON THE PART OF THE ESCROW AGENT. THE COMPANY UNDERSTANDS THAT THE INVESTOR AND
THE ESCROW AGENT ARE RELYING EXPLICITLY ON THE FOREGOING PROVISION IN ENTERING
INTO THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT.

               3.11. The Escrow Agent's responsibilities as escrow agent
hereunder shall terminate if the Escrow Agent shall resign by written notice to
the Company and the Investor. In the event of any such resignation, the
Investors and the Company shall appoint a successor Escrow Agent.

               3.12. If the Escrow Agent reasonably requires other or further
instruments in connection with this Escrow Agreement or obligations in respect
hereto, the necessary parties hereto shall join in furnishing such instruments.

               3.13. It is understood and agreed that should any dispute arise
with respect to the delivery and/or ownership or right of possession of the
documents or the escrow funds held by the Escrow Agent hereunder, the Escrow
Agent is authorized and directed in the Escrow Agent's sole discretion (1) to
retain in the Escrow Agent's possession without liability to anyone all or any
part of said documents or the escrow funds until such disputes shall have been
settled either by mutual written agreement of the parties concerned by a final
order, decree or judgment or a court of competent jurisdiction after the time
for appeal has expired and no appeal has been perfected, but the Escrow Agent
shall be under no duty whatsoever to institute or defend any such proceedings or
(2) to deliver the escrow funds and any other property and documents held by the
Escrow Agent hereunder to a state or federal court having competent subject
matter jurisdiction and located in the State and City of New York in accordance
with the applicable procedure therefor.

               3.14. The Company and the Investor agree jointly and severally to
indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow Agent and its partners, employees, agents
and representatives from any and all claims, liabilities, costs or expenses in
any way arising from or relating to the duties or performance of the Escrow
Agent hereunder or the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Purchase
Agreement other than any such claim, liability, cost or expense to the extent
the same shall have been determined by final, unappealable judgment of a court
of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Escrow Agent.

                                                                       EXHIBIT C

                          REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT, dated as of the 27th day of April, 2000,
between Villabeach Investments Limited ("Holder") and MediaX Corporation, a
corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada (the "Company").

               WHEREAS, simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, pursuant to a Private Equity Line of Credit Agreement dated the date
hereof (the "Purchase Agreement") the Holder has committed to purchase up to
$6,000,000 of the Company's Common Stock (terms not defined herein shall have
the meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement); and

               WHEREAS, the Company desires to grant to the Holder the
registration rights set forth herein with respect to the Put Shares and the
Blackout Shares issuable upon exercise of the Company's Put rights from time to
time and the Warrant Shares (hereinafter referred to as the "Put Shares" or
"Stock" or "Securities" of the Company).

               NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto mutually agree as follows:

               Section 1. Registrable Securities. As used herein the term
"Registrable Security" means the Securities until (i) all Put Shares and Warrant
Shares have been disposed of pursuant to the Registration Statement, (ii) all
Put Shares and Warrant Shares have been sold under circumstances under which all
of the applicable conditions of Rule 144 (or any similar provision then in
force) under the Securities Act ("Rule 144") are met, (iii) all Put Shares and
Warrant Shares have been otherwise transferred to persons who may trade such
Securities without restriction under the Securities Act, and the Company has
delivered a new certificate or other evidence of ownership for such Put Shares
and Warrant Shares not bearing a restrictive legend or (iv) such time as, in the
opinion of counsel to the Company, all Put Shares and Warrant Shares may be sold
without any time, volume or manner limitations pursuant to Rule 144(k) (or any
similar provision then in effect) under the Securities Act. The term
"Registrable Securities" means any and/or all of the securities falling within
the foregoing definition of a "Registrable Security." In the event of any
merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization or other change in
corporate structure affecting the Common Stock, such adjustment shall be deemed
to be made in the definition of "Registrable Security" as is appropriate in
order to prevent any dilution or enlargement of the rights granted pursuant to
this Agreement.

               Section 2. Restrictions on Transfer. The Holder acknowledges and
understands that in the absence of an effective Registration Statement
authorizing the resale of the Securities as provided herein, the Securities are
"restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Act. The
Holder understands that no disposition or transfer of the Securities may be made
by Holder in the absence of (i) an opinion of counsel to the Holder, in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such transfer may be made
without registration under the Securities Act or (ii) such registration.

                                       1
<PAGE>   2
               With a view to making available to the Holder the benefits of
Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the
Commission that may at any time permit the Holder to sell securities of the
Company to the public without registration ("Rule 144"), the Company agrees to:

               (a) comply with the provisions of paragraph (c)(1) of Rule 144;
and

               (b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and
other documents required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or
15(d) under the Exchange Act; and, if at any time it is not required to file
such reports but in the past had been required to or did file such reports, it
will, upon the request of any Holder, make available other information as
required by, and so long as necessary to permit sales of, its Registrable
Securities pursuant to Rule 144.

               Section 3. Registration Rights With Respect to the Securities.

               (a) The Company agrees that it will prepare and file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission"), within forty-five (45) days
after the date hereof, a registration statement (on Form S-1, S-3, or other
appropriate form of registration statement) under the Securities Act (the
"Registration Statement"), at the sole expense of the Company (except as
provided in Section 3(c) hereof), so as to permit a public offering and resale
of the Securities under the Act by Holder.

                   The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the
Registration Statement to become effective within ninety (90) days from the date
hereof, or, if earlier, within five (5) days of SEC clearance to request
acceleration of effectiveness. If the Registration Statement is not declared
effective by September 30, 2000, this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement shall
terminate and the Company shall pay Investor the sum of $25,000 as liquidated
damages. The number of shares designated in the Registration Statement to be
registered shall be at least 2,500,000 and shall include appropriate language
regarding reliance upon Rule 416 to the extent permitted by the Commission. The
Company will notify Holder of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement
within one Trading Day of such event.

               (b) The Company will maintain the Registration Statement or
post-effective amendment filed under this Section 3 hereof effective under the
Securities Act until the earlier of (i) the date that none of the Securities are
or may become issued and outstanding, (ii) the date that all of the Securities
have been sold pursuant to the Registration Statement, (iii) the date the
holders thereof receive an opinion of counsel to the Company, which counsel
shall be reasonably acceptable to the Holder, that the Securities may be sold
under the provisions of Rule 144 without limitation as to volume, (iv) all
Securities have been otherwise transferred to persons who may trade such shares
without restriction under the Securities Act, and the Company has delivered a
new certificate or other evidence of ownership for such securities not bearing a
restrictive legend, or (v) all Securities may be sold without any time, volume
or manner limitations pursuant to Rule 144(k) or any similar provision then in
effect under the Securities Act in the opinion of counsel to the Company, which
counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Holder (the "Effectiveness
Period").

                                       2
<PAGE>   3
               (c) All fees, disbursements and out-of-pocket expenses and costs
incurred by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the
Registration Statement under subparagraph 3(a) and in complying with applicable
securities and Blue Sky laws (including, without limitation, all attorneys' fees
of the Company) shall be borne by the Company. The Holder shall bear the cost of
underwriting and/or brokerage discounts, fees and commissions, if any,
applicable to the Securities being registered and the fees and expenses of its
counsel. The Holder and its counsel shall have a reasonable period, not to
exceed ten (10) Trading Days, to review the proposed Registration Statement or
any amendment thereto, prior to filing with the Commission, and the Company
shall provide each Holder with copies of any comment letters received from the
Commission with respect thereto within two (2) Trading Days of receipt thereof.
The Company shall make reasonably available for inspection by Holder, any
underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to the Registration
Statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by such Holder
or any such underwriter all relevant financial and other records, pertinent
corporate documents and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, and
cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all information
reasonably requested by such Holder or any such underwriter, attorney,
accountant or agent in connection with the Registration Statement, in each case,
as is customary for similar due diligence examinations; provided, however, that
all records, information and documents that are designated in writing by the
Company, in good faith, as confidential, proprietary or containing any material
non-public information shall be kept confidential by such Holder and any such
underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent (pursuant to an appropriate
confidentiality agreement in the case of any such Holder or agent), unless such
disclosure is made pursuant to judicial process in a court proceeding (after
first giving the Company an opportunity promptly to seek a protective order or
otherwise limit the scope of the information sought to be disclosed) or is
required by law, or such records, information or documents become available to
the public generally or through a third party not in violation of an
accompanying obligation of confidentiality; and provided further that, if the
foregoing inspection and information gathering would otherwise disrupt the
Company's conduct of its business, such inspection and information gathering
shall, to the maximum extent possible, be coordinated on behalf of the Holder
and the other parties entitled thereto by one firm of counsel designed by and on
behalf of the majority in interest of Holder and other parties. The Company
shall qualify any of the securities for sale in such states as such Holder
reasonably designates and shall furnish indemnification in the manner provided
in Section 6 hereof. However, the Company shall not be required to qualify in
any state which will require an escrow or other restriction relating to the
Company and/or the sellers, or which will require the Company to qualify to do
business in such state or require the Company to file therein any general
consent to service of process. The Company at its expense will supply the Holder
with copies of the Registration Statement and the prospectus included therein
and other related documents in such quantities as may be reasonably requested by
the Holder.

               (d) The Company shall not be required by this Section 3 to
include a Holder's Securities in any Registration Statement which is to be filed
if, in the opinion of counsel for both the Holder and the Company (or, should
they not agree, in the opinion of another counsel experienced in securities law
matters acceptable to counsel for the Holder and the Company) the proposed
offering or other transfer as to which such registration is requested is exempt
from applicable federal and state securities laws and would result in all
purchasers or transferees

                                       3
<PAGE>   4
obtaining securities which are not "restricted securities", as defined in Rule
144 under the Securities Act.

               (e) No provision contained herein shall preclude the Company from
selling securities pursuant to any Registration Statement in which it is
required to include Securities pursuant to this Section 3.

               (f) If at any time or from time to time after the effective date
of the Registration Statement, the Company notifies the Holder in writing of the
existence of a Potential Material Event (as defined in Section 3(g) below), the
Holder shall not offer or sell any Securities or engage in any other transaction
involving or relating to Securities, from the time of the giving of notice with
respect to a Potential Material Event until such Holder receives written notice
from the Company that such Potential Material Event either has been disclosed to
the public or no longer constitutes a Potential Material Event; provided,
however, that if the Company so suspends the right to such holders of Securities
for more than thirty (30) days in the aggregate during any twelve month period,
during the periods the Registration Statement is required to be in effect such
excess periods shall be a Registration Default, and shall entitle the Investor
to receive Blackout Shares as provided in the Purchase Agreement. If a Potential
Material Event shall occur prior to the date the Registration Statement is
filed, then the Company's obligation to file the Registration Statement shall be
delayed without penalty for not more than thirty (30) days. The Company must
give Holder notice in writing at least two (2) Trading Days prior to the first
day of the blackout period, if lawful to do so.

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

               Section 4. Cooperation with Company. Holder will cooperate with
the Company in all respects in connection with this Agreement, including timely
supplying all information reasonably requested by the Company (which shall
include all information regarding the Holder and proposed manner of sale of the
Registrable Securities required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement)
and executing and returning all documents reasonably requested in connection
with the registration and sale of the Registrable Securities and entering into
and performing its obligations under any underwriting agreement, if the offering
is an underwritten offering, in usual and customary form, with the managing
underwriter or underwriters of such underwritten offering. The Holder consents
to be named as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement.

               Section 5. Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company
is required by any of the provisions of this Agreement to effect the
registration of any of the Registrable

                                       4
<PAGE>   5
Securities under the Act, the Company shall (except as otherwise provided in
this Agreement), as expeditiously as possible, subject to the Holder's
assistance and cooperation as reasonably required:

               (a) (i) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective and
to comply with the provisions of the Act with respect to the sale or other
disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement whenever
the Holder of such Registrable Securities shall desire to sell or otherwise
dispose of the same (including prospectus supplements with respect to the sales
of securities from time to time in connection with a registration statement
pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Act) and (ii) take all lawful action
such that each of (A) the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto does
not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein, not misleading and (B) the Prospectus forming part
of the Registration Statement, and any amendment or supplement thereto, does not
at any time during the Registration Period include an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading.

               (b) (i) prior to the filing with the Commission of any
Registration Statement (including any amendments thereto) and the distribution
or delivery of any prospectus (including any supplements thereto), provide draft
copies thereof to the Holders and reflect in such documents all such comments as
the Holders (and their counsel) reasonably may propose and (ii) furnish to each
Holder such numbers of copies of a prospectus including a preliminary prospectus
or any amendment or supplement to any prospectus, as applicable, in conformity
with the requirements of the Act, and such other documents, as such Holder may
reasonably request in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition
of the securities owned by such Holder;

               (c) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by
the Registration Statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such
jurisdictions as the Holder shall reasonably request (subject to the limitations
set forth in Section 3(d) above), and do any and all other acts and things which
may be necessary or advisable to enable each Holder to consummate the public
sale or other disposition in such jurisdiction of the securities owned by such
Holder, except that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to
qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it
is not so qualified or to file therein any general consent to service of
process;

               (d) list such Registrable Securities on the Primary Market, and
any other exchange on which the Common Stock of the Company is then listed, if
the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of
such exchange;

               (e) notify each Holder at any time when a prospectus relating
thereto covered by the Registration Statement is required to be delivered under
the Act, of the happening of any event of which it has knowledge as a result of
which the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect,
includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not

                                       5
<PAGE>   6
misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, and the Company
shall prepare and file a curative amendment under Section 5(a) as quickly as
commercially possible;

               (f) as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such
event, notify Holder (or, in the event of an underwritten offering, the managing
underwriters) of the issuance by the Commission or any state authority of any
stop order or other suspension of the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement at the earliest possible time and take all lawful action to effect the
withdrawal, recession or removal of such stop order or other suspension;

               (g) cooperate with the Holder to facilitate the timely
preparation and delivery of certificates for the Registrable Securities to be
offered pursuant to the Registration Statement and enable such certificates for
the Registrable Securities to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case
may be, as the Holder reasonably may request and registered in such names as the
Holder may request; and, within three Trading Days after a Registration
Statement which includes Registrable Securities is declared effective by the
Commission, deliver and cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver
to the transfer agent for the Registrable Securities (with copies to the Holder)
an appropriate instruction and, to the extent necessary, an opinion of such
counsel;

               (h) take all such other lawful actions reasonably necessary to
expedite and facilitate the disposition by the Holder of its Registrable
Securities in accordance with the intended methods therefor provided in the
prospectus which are customary for issuers to perform under the circumstances;

               (i) in the event of an underwritten offering, promptly include or
incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the
Registration Statement such information as the managers reasonably agree should
be included therein and to which the Company does not reasonably object and make
all required filings of such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment
as soon as practicable after it is notified of the matters to be included or
incorporated in such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and

               (j) maintain a transfer agent and registrar for its Common Stock.

               Section 6. Indemnification.

               (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Holder
and each person, if any, who controls the Holder within the meaning of the
Securities Act ("Distributing Holder") against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, joint or several (which shall, for all purposes of this Agreement,
include, but not be limited to, all reasonable costs of defense and
investigation and all reasonable attorneys' fees), to which the Distributing
Holder may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as
such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, or any related
preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, or
arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that the Company will not
be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim,

                                       6
<PAGE>   7
damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the
Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or amendment or
supplement thereto in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information
furnished to the Company by the Distributing Holder, specifically for use in the
preparation thereof. This Section 6(a) shall not inure to the benefit of any
Distributing Holder with respect to any person asserting such loss, claim,
damage or liability who purchased the Registrable Securities which are the
subject thereof if the Distributing Holder failed to send or give (in violation
of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) a
copy of the prospectus contained in such Registration Statement to such person
at or prior to the written confirmation to such person of the sale of such
Registrable Securities, where the Distributing Holder was obligated to do so
under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company
may otherwise have.

               Each Distributing Holder agrees that it will indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, and each officer, director of the Company or person, if
any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, against
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (which shall, for all purposes of
this Agreement, include, but not be limited to, all reasonable costs of defense
and investigation and all reasonable attorneys' fees) to which the Company or
any such officer, director or controlling person may become subject under the
Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
the Registration Statement, or any related preliminary prospectus, final
prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon
the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
but in each case only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration
Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or amendment or supplement
thereto in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished
to the Company by such Distributing Holder, specifically for use in the
preparation thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any
liability which the Distributing Holder may otherwise have. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, the Distributing Investor shall not be liable
under this Section 6(b) for any amount in excess of the net proceeds to such
Distributing Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant
to the Registration Statement.

               (b) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party
will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party
under this Section 6, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof;
but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the
indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party
except to the extent of actual prejudice demonstrated by the indemnifying party.
In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it
notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying
party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish,
jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, assume the defense
thereof, subject to the provisions herein stated and after notice from the
indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the
defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified
party under this

                                       7
<PAGE>   8
Section 6 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable
costs of investigation, unless the indemnifying party shall not pursue the
action to its final conclusion. The indemnified party shall have the right to
employ separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense
thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall not be at the expense
of the indemnifying party if the indemnifying party has assumed the defense of
the action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party;
provided that if the indemnified party is the Distributing Holder, the fees and
expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party if
(i) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in writing
by the indemnifying party, or (ii) the named parties to any such action
(including any impleaded parties) include both the Distributing Holder and the
indemnifying party and the Distributing Holder shall have been advised by such
counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to the
indemnifying party different from or in conflict with any legal defenses which
may be available to the Distributing Holder (in which case the indemnifying
party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of
the Distributing Holder, it being understood, however, that the indemnifying
party shall, in connection with any one such action or separate but
substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of
the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable only for the reasonable
fees and expenses of one separate firm of attorneys for the Distributing Holder,
which firm shall be designated in writing by the Distributing Holder). No
settlement of any action against an indemnified party shall be made without the
prior written consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld.

          All fees and expenses of the indemnified party (including reasonable
costs of defense and investigation in a manner not inconsistent with this
Section and all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) shall be paid to the
indemnified party, as incurred, within ten (10) Trading Days of written notice
thereof to the indemnifying party (regardless of whether it is ultimately
determined that an indemnified party is not entitled to indemnification
hereunder; provided, that the indemnifying party may require such indemnified
party to undertake to reimburse all such fees and expenses to the extent it is
finally judicially determined that such indemnified party is not entitled to
indemnification hereunder).

               Section 7. Contribution. In order to provide for just and
equitable contribution under the Securities Act in any case in which (i) the
indemnified party makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 6 hereof
but is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a
court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the
denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be
enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that the express provisions of
Section 6 hereof provide for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution
under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any indemnified party,
then the Company and the applicable Distributing Holder shall contribute to the
aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject
(which shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, include, but not be limited
to, all reasonable costs of defense and investigation and all reasonable
attorneys' fees), in either such case (after contribution from others) on the
basis of relative fault as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the 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 the Company on the one hand

                                       8
<PAGE>   9
or the applicable Distributing Holder on the other hand, and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Distributing Holder
agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 7 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 this Section 7. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a
result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) referred to above in this Section 7 shall be deemed to include any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. 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.

          Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7, in no event
shall any (i) Holder be required to undertake liability to any person under this
Section 7 for any amounts in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds to
be received by such Holder from the sale of such Holder's Registrable Securities
(after deducting any fees, discounts and commissions applicable thereto)
pursuant to any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Securities
are to be registered under the Securities Act and (ii) underwriter be required
to undertake liability to any person hereunder for any amounts in excess of the
aggregate discount, commission or other compensation payable to such underwriter
with respect to the Registrable Securities underwritten by it and distributed
pursuant to the Registration Statement.

               Section 8. Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents,
approvals, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in
writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, shall be (i) personally served,
(ii) deposited in the mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested,
postage prepaid, (iii) delivered by reputable air courier service with charges
prepaid, or (iv) transmitted by hand delivery, telegram, or facsimile, addressed
as set forth below or to such other address as such party shall have specified
most recently by written notice. Any notice or other communication required or
permitted to be given hereunder shall be deemed effective (a) upon hand delivery
or delivery by facsimile, with accurate confirmation generated by the
transmitting facsimile machine, at the address or number designated below (if
delivered on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is to
be received), or the first business day following such delivery (if delivered
other than on a business day during normal business hours where such notice is
to be received) or (b) on the second business day following the date of mailing
by reputable courier service, fully prepaid, addressed to such address, or upon
actual receipt of such mailing, whichever shall first occur. The addresses for
such communications shall be as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

          Either party hereto may from time to time change its address or
facsimile number for notices under this Section 8 by giving at least ten (10)
days' prior written notice of such changed address or facsimile number to the
other party hereto.

               Section 9. Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any rights of
the Holder or the Company hereunder may be assigned by either party to any other
person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the provisions of this Agreement
shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, any transferee of any of
the Common Stock purchased by the Investor pursuant

                                       9
<PAGE>   10
to the Purchase Agreement, and (b) upon the prior written consent of the
Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed in the case
of an assignment to an affiliate of the Holder, the Holder's interest in this
Agreement may be assigned at any time, in whole or in part, to any other person
or entity (including any affiliate of the Holder) who agrees to be bound hereby.

               Section 10. Additional Covenants of the Company. The Company
agrees that at such time as it meets all the requirements for the use of
Securities Act Registration Statement on Form S-3 it shall file all reports and
information required to be filed by it with the Commission in a timely manner
and take all such other action so as to maintain such eligibility for the use of
such form.

               Section 11. Counterparts/Facsimile. This Agreement may be
executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an
original, but all of which, when together shall constitute but one and the same
instrument, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been
signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other party. In lieu of the
original, a facsimile transmission or copy of the original shall be as effective
and enforceable as the original.

               Section 12. Remedies. The remedies provided in this Agreement are
cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. If any term,
provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the
remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein
shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired
or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their best efforts to find and
employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result
as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is
hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they
would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions
without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal,
void or unenforceable.

               Section 13. Conflicting Agreements. The Company shall not enter
into any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the
rights granted to the holders of Registrable Securities in this Agreement or
otherwise prevents the Company from complying with all of its obligations
hereunder.

               Section 14. Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for
reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement.

               Section 15. Governing Law, Arbitration. This Agreement shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York
applicable to contracts made in New York by persons domiciled in New York City
and without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws. Any dispute under
this Agreement shall be submitted to arbitration under the American Arbitration
Association (the "AAA") in New York City, New York, and shall be finally and
conclusively determined by the decision of a board of arbitration consisting of
three (3) members (hereinafter referred to as the "Board of Arbitration")
selected as according to the rules governing the AAA. The Board of Arbitration
shall meet on consecutive business days in New

                                       10
<PAGE>   11
York City, New York, and shall reach and render a decision in writing (concurred
in by a majority of the members of the Board of Arbitration) with respect to the
amount, if any, which the losing party is required to pay to the other party in
respect of a claim filed. In connection with rendering its decisions, the Board
of Arbitration shall adopt and follow the laws of the State of New York. To the
extent practical, decisions of the Board of Arbitration shall be rendered no
more than thirty (30) calendar days following commencement of proceedings with
respect thereto. The Board of Arbitration shall cause its written decision to be
delivered to all parties involved in the dispute. The Board of Arbitration shall
be authorized and is directed to enter a default judgment against any party
refusing to participate in the arbitration proceeding with thirty days of any
deadline for such participation. Any decision made by the Board of Arbitration
(either prior to or after the expiration of such thirty (30) calendar day
period) shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties to the dispute,
and entitled to be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law and entered
in any court of competent jurisdiction. The prevailing party shall be awarded
its costs, including attorneys' fees, from the non-prevailing party as part of
the arbitration award. Any party shall have the right to seek injunctive relief
from any court of competent jurisdiction in any case where such relief is
available. The prevailing party in such injunctive action shall be awarded its
costs, including attorney's fees, from the non-prevailing party.

               Section 16. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement
shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or
unenforceablity shall not affect any other provision hereof and this Agreement
shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had never been
contained herein.
