the Company receives a request from the Holders of at least ten percent (10)% of

registration statement with respect to all or a portion of the Registrable
Securities then outstanding, then the Company shall (i) within ten (10) days
after the date such request is given, give notice thereof (the "Demand Notice")
to all Holders other than the Initiating Holders; and (ii) as soon as
practicable, and in any event within sixty (60) days after the date such request

               (c) The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any
action to effect, any registration pursuant to Section 2.1(a) (i) during the
period that is sixty (60) days before the Company's good faith estimate of the
date of filing of, and ending on a date that is one hundred eighty (180) days
after the effective date of, a Company-initiated registration, provided, that
the Company is actively employing in good faith commercially reasonable efforts
to cause such registration statement to become effective; (ii) after the Company

<PAGE>

if the Company has effected two (2) registrations pursuant to Section 2.1(b)
within the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the date of such
request (including at least one (1) registration of the Investor's Registrable
Securities). A registration shall not be counted as "effected" for purposes of
this Section 2.1(c) until such time as the applicable registration statement has
been declared effective by the Securities Regulatory Authority, unless the
Initiating Holders withdraw their request for such registration, elect not to
pay the registration expenses therefor, and forfeit their right to one demand
registration statement pursuant to Section 2.6, in which case such withdrawn
registration statement shall be counted as "effected" for purposes of this
Section 2.1(d).

          2.2. Company Registration. If the Company proposes to register
(including, for this purpose, a registration effected by the Company for
shareholders other than the Holders) any of its securities with a Securities
Regulatory Authority in connection with the public offering of such securities
solely for cash (other than in an Excluded Registration), the Company shall, at
such time, promptly give each Holder notice of such registration. Upon the
request of each Holder, within twenty (20) days after such notice is given by
the Company, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 2.3, use
its best efforts to cause to be registered all of the Registrable Securities
that each such Holder has requested to be included in such registration. The
Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated
by it under this Section 2.2 before the effective date of such registration,
whether or not any Holder has elected to include Registrable Securities in such
registration. The expenses (other than Selling Expenses) of such withdrawn
registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 2.6.

          2.3. Underwriting Requirements.

               (a) If, pursuant to Section 2.1, the Initiating Holders intend to
distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an
underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made
pursuant to Section 2.1, and the Company shall include such information in the
Demand Notice. The underwriter(s) will be selected by the Company and shall be
reasonably acceptable to a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders. In
such event, the right of any Holder to include such Holder's Registrable
Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder's
participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's
Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All
Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall
(together with the Company as provided in Section 2.4(e)) enter into an
underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter(s) selected for
such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.3, if
the managing underwriter(s) advise(s) the Initiating Holders in writing that
marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be
underwritten, then the Initiating Holders shall so advise all Holders of
Registrable Securities that otherwise would be underwritten pursuant hereto, and
the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting
shall be allocated among such Holders of Registrable Securities, including the
Initiating Holders, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the number of
Registrable Securities owned by each Holder or in such other proportion as shall
mutually be agreed to by all such selling Holders; provided, however, that the
number of the Investor Registrable Securities to be included in such
underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities are first entirely
excluded from the underwriting. To

                                       6
<PAGE>

facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the
Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to any
Holder to the nearest 100 shares.

               (b) In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of
shares in the Company's share capital pursuant to Section 2.2, the Company shall
not be required to include any of the Holders' Registrable Securities in such
underwriting unless the Holders accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed
upon between the Company and its underwriters, and then only in such quantity as
the underwriters in their sole discretion determine will not jeopardize the
success of the offering by the Company. If the total number of securities,
including Registrable Securities, requested by shareholders to be included in
such offering exceeds the number of securities to be sold (other than by the
Company) that the underwriters in their reasonable discretion determine is
compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required
to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including
Registrable Securities, which the underwriters and the Company in their sole
discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering. If the
underwriters determine that less than all of the Registrable Securities
requested to be registered can be included in such offering, then the
Registrable Securities that are included in such offering shall be allocated
among the selling Holders in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the number
of Registrable Securities owned by each selling Holder or in such other
proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by all such selling Holders. To
facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the
Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to any
Holder to the nearest 100 shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event
shall (i) the number of Investor Registrable Securities included in the offering
be reduced unless all other securities (other than securities to be sold by the
Company) are first entirely excluded from the offering, or (ii) the number of
the Investor Registrable Securities included in the offering be reduced below
twenty percent (20%) of the total number of securities included in such
offering, unless such offering is the IPO, in which case the selling Holders may
be excluded further if the underwriters make the determination described above
and no other shareholder's securities are included in such offering. For
purposes of the provision in this Section 2.3(b) concerning apportionment, for
any selling Holder that is a partnership, limited liability company, or
corporation, the partners, members, retired partners, retired members,
shareholders, and Affiliates of such Holder, or the estates and Immediate Family
Members of any such partners, retired partners, members, and retired members and
any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing Persons, shall be deemed to
be a single "selling Holder," and any pro rata reduction with respect to such
"selling Holder" shall be based upon the aggregate number of Registrable
Securities owned by all Persons included in such "selling Holder," as defined in
this sentence.

               (c) For purposes of Section 2.1, a registration shall not be
counted as "effected" if, as a result of an exercise of the underwriter's
cutback provisions in Section 2.3(a), fewer than fifty percent (50%) of the
total number of Registrable Securities that Holders have requested to be
included in such registration statement are actually included.

          2.4. Obligations of the Company. Whenever required under this Section
2 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall,
as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

                                       7
<PAGE>
               (a) prepare and file with the applicable Securities Regulatory
Authority a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities
and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement
to become effective and, upon the request of the Holders of at least ten percent
(10)% of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such
registration statement effective for a period of up to one hundred twenty (120)
days or, if earlier, until the distribution contemplated in the registration
statement has been completed; provided, however, that (i) such one hundred
twenty (120) day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the
period the Holder refrains, at the request of an underwriter of the Ordinary
Shares (or other securities) of the Company, from selling any securities
included in such registration, and (ii) in the case of any registration of
Registrable Securities on Form F-3 that are intended to be offered on a
continuous or delayed basis, subject to compliance with applicable SEC rules,
such one hundred twenty (120) day period shall be extended, if necessary, to
keep the registration statement effective until all such Registrable Securities
are sold;

               (b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements
to such registration statement, and the prospectus used in connection with such
registration statement, as may be necessary to comply with the Securities Act in
order to enable the disposition of all securities covered by such registration
statement;

               (c) furnish to the selling Holders such numbers of copies of a
prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, as required by the Securities
Act, and such other documents as the Holders may reasonably request in order to

               (d) use its commercially reasonable efforts to register and
qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other
securities or blue-sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably
requested by the selling Holders; provided that the Company shall not be
required to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of
process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is already
subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the
Securities Act;

and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and
customary form, with the underwriter(s) of such offering;

               (f) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all such
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement to be listed on a
national securities exchange or trading system and each securities exchange and
trading system (if any) on which similar securities issued by the Company are
then listed;

               (g) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable
Securities registered pursuant to this Agreement and provide a CUSIP number for
all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date
of such registration;

               (h) promptly make available for inspection by the selling
Holders, any underwriter(s) participating in any disposition pursuant to such
registration statement, and any

                                       8
<PAGE>

attorney or accountant or other agent retained by any such underwriter or
selected by the selling Holders, all financial and other records, pertinent
corporate documents, and properties of the Company, and cause the Company's
officers, directors, employees, and independent accountants to supply all
information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney,
accountant, or agent, in each case, as necessary or advisable to verify the
accuracy of the information in such registration statement and to conduct
appropriate due diligence in connection therewith;

               (i) notify each selling Holder, promptly after the Company
receives notice thereof, of the time when such registration statement has been
declared effective or a supplement to any prospectus forming a part of such
registration statement has been filed; and

               (j) after such registration statement becomes effective, notify
each selling Holder of any request by the SEC that the Company amend or
supplement such registration statement or prospectus.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.4, the Company shall be
entitled to postpone or suspend the filing, effectiveness or use of, or trading
under, any registration statement, and any time periods with respect to filing
or effectiveness thereof shall be tolled correspondingly, for a period of not
more than ninety (90) days if the Company shall determine that any such filing
or the sale of any securities pursuant to such registration statement would in
the good faith judgment of the Board:

                    (i) materially impede, delay or interfere with any material
          pending or proposed financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization
          or other similar transaction involving the Company for which the Board
          has authorized negotiations;

                    (ii)  materially adversely impair the consummation of any
          pending or proposed material offering or sale of any class of
          securities by the Company; or

                    (iii) require disclosure of material nonpublic information
          that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as
          confidential; or

          requirements under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act;

provided, however, that the Company may not invoke this right more than once in

register any securities for its own account or that of any other shareholder

obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 2 with
respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such Holder
shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable
Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of

proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.1 if the registration request is
subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a least ten percent

Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata based upon the number of Registrable
Securities that were to be included in the withdrawn registration), unless a

time of such withdrawal, the Holders shall have learned of a material adverse
change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company from that known

reasonable promptness after learning of such information then the Holders shall
not be required to pay any of such expenses and shall not forfeit their right to
one registration pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or Section 2.1(b). All Selling
Expenses relating to Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Section
2 shall be borne and paid by the Holders pro rata on the basis of the number of
Registrable Securities registered on their behalf.

          2.7. Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain
or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any registration
pursuant to this Agreement as the result of any controversy that might arise
with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 2.

          2.8. Indemnification. If any Registrable Securities are included in a
registration statement under this Section 2:

               (a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify
and hold harmless each selling Holder, and the partners, members, officers,
directors, and shareholders of each such Holder; legal counsel and accountants
for each such Holder; any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for
each such Holder; and each Person, if any, who controls such Holder or
underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act,
against any Damages, and the Company will pay to each such Holder, underwriter,
controlling Person, or other aforementioned Person any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred thereby in connection with investigating or defending any
claim or proceeding from which Damages may result, as such expenses are
incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this
Section 2.8(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim
or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the Company be
liable for any Damages to the extent that they arise out of or are based upon
actions or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished by or on behalf of any such Holder, underwriter,
controlling Person, or other aforementioned Person expressly for use in
connection with such registration.

                                       10
<PAGE>
               (b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder,
severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and
each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration
statement, each Person (if any), who controls the Company within the meaning of
the Securities Act, legal counsel and accountants for the Company, any
underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act), any other Holder selling
securities in such registration statement, and any controlling Person of any
such underwriter or other Holder, against any Damages, in each case only to the
extent that such Damages arise out of or are based upon actions or omissions
made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or
on behalf of such selling Holder expressly for use in connection with such
registration; and each such selling Holder will pay to the Company and each
other aforementioned Person any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
thereby in connection with investigating or defending any claim or proceeding
from which Damages may result, as such expenses are incurred; provided, however,
that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.8(b) shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any such claim or proceeding if such settlement is
effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld; and provided further that in no event shall the aggregate
amounts payable by any Holder by way of indemnity or contribution under Sections
2.8(b) and 2.8(d) exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder
(net of any Selling Expenses paid by such Holder), except in the case of fraud
or willful misconduct by such Holder.

               (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 2.8 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
governmental action) for which a party may be entitled to indemnification
hereunder, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be
made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.8, give the
indemnifying party notice of the commencement thereof. The indemnifying party
shall have the right to participate in such action and, to the extent the
indemnifying party so desires, participate jointly with any other indemnifying
party to which notice has been given, and to assume the defense thereof with
counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an
indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties that may be
represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one
separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying
party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by
the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential
differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party
represented by such counsel in such action. The failure to give notice to the
indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such
action shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified
party under this Section 2.8, to the extent that such failure materially
prejudices the indemnifying party's ability to defend such action. The failure
to give notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability
that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 2.8.

               (d) Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, the
foregoing indemnity agreements of the Company and the selling Holders are
subject to the condition that, insofar as they relate to any Damages arising
from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in, or omission or alleged omission of a material fact from, a
preliminary prospectus (or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading) that has been corrected in the form of prospectus included in the
registration statement at the time it becomes effective, or any amendment or
supplement thereto filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule

                                       11
<PAGE>

424(b) under the Securities Act (the "Final Prospectus"), such indemnity
agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any Person if a copy of the Final
Prospectus was furnished to the indemnified party and such indemnified party
failed to deliver, at or before the confirmation of the sale of the shares
registered in such offering, a copy of the Final Prospectus to the Person
asserting the loss, liability, claim, or damage in any case in which such
delivery was required by the Securities Act.

               (e) To provide for just and equitable contribution to joint
liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) any party
otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder makes a claim for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 2.8 but it is judicially determined (by
the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and
the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that
such indemnification may not be enforced in such case, notwithstanding the fact
that this Section 2.8 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii)
contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any party
hereto for which indemnification is provided under this Section 2.8, then, and
in each such case, such parties will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims,
damages, liabilities, or expenses to which they may be subject (after
contribution from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative fault of each of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in
connection with the statements, omissions, or other actions that resulted in
such loss, claim, damage, liability, or expense, as well as to reflect any other
relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party
and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact, or
the omission or alleged omission of a material fact, relates to information
supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or
prevent such statement or omission; provided, however, that, in any such case,
(x) no Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public
offering price of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such
Holder pursuant to such registration statement, and (y) no Person guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation; and provided further that in no
event shall a Holder's liability pursuant to this Section 2.8(e), when combined
with the amounts paid or payable by such Holder pursuant to Section 2.8(b),
exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder (net of any
Selling Expenses) paid by such Holder), except in the case of willful misconduct
or fraud by such Holder.

               (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the
provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting
agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are
in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting
agreement shall control.

               (g) Unless otherwise superseded by an underwriting agreement
entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering, the
obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 2.8 shall survive the
completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration under
this Section 2, and otherwise shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

                                       12
<PAGE>

          2.9. Reports Under Exchange Act. With a view to making available to
the Holders the benefits of SEC Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the
Securities Regulatory Authority that may at any time permit a Holder to sell
securities of the Company to the public without registration or pursuant to a
registration on Form F 3, the Company shall:

               (a) make and keep available adequate current public information,
as those terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144, at all times after
the effective date of the registration statement filed by the Company for the
IPO;

               (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the
Securities Regulatory Authority in a timely manner all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act
(at any time after the Company has become subject to such reporting
requirements); and

               (c) furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any
Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) to the extent accurate, a
written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting
requirements of SEC Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the
effective date of the registration statement filed by the Company for the IPO),
the Securities Act, and the Exchange Act (at any time after the Company has
become subject to such reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a
registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form F 3 (at any time
after the Company so qualifies); (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or
quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by
the Company; and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in
availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the Securities Regulatory
Authority that permits the selling of any such securities without registration
(at any time after the Company has become subject to the reporting requirements
under the Exchange Act) or pursuant to Form F 3 (at any time after the Company
so qualifies to use such form).

          2.10. Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after
the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written
consent of the Holders of at least eighty-one percent (81)% of the Registrable
Securities then outstanding, enter into any agreement with any holder or
prospective holder of any securities of the Company (a) to include such
securities in any registration filed under Section 2.2 hereof, unless under the
terms of such agreement, such holder or prospective holder may include such
securities in any such registration only to the extent that the inclusion of its
securities will not reduce the amount of the Registrable Securities of the
Holders which is included or (b) to make a demand registration; provided that
this limitation shall not apply to any additional investor who becomes a party
to this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.1(b).

          2.11. "Market Stand off" Agreement.

               (a) Each Holder hereby agrees that it will not, without the prior
written consent of the managing underwriter, during the period commencing on the
date of the final prospectus relating to the registration by the Company of
shares or any other equity securities under the Securities Act on a registration
statement, and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing
underwriter (such period not to exceed (x) one hundred eighty (180) days in the
case of the IPO, which period may be extended upon the request of the managing

                                       13
<PAGE>

underwriter, to the extent required by any NASD rules, for an additional period
of up to fifteen (15) days if the Company issues or proposes to issue an
earnings or other public release within fifteen (15) days of the expiration of
the 180-day lockup period, or (y) ninety (90) days in the case of any
registration other than the IPO, which period may be extended upon the request
of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any NASD rules, for an
additional period of up to fifteen (15) days if the Company issues or proposes
to issue an earnings or other public release within fifteen (15) days of the
expiration of the 90-day lockup period), lend; offer; pledge; sell; contract to
sell; sell any option or contract to purchase; purchase any option or contract
to sell; grant any option, right, or warrant to purchase; or otherwise transfer
or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Ordinary Shares or any securities
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable (directly or indirectly) for
Ordinary Shares. The foregoing provisions of this Section 2.11 shall be
applicable to the Holders only if all officers and directors are subject to the
same restrictions and the Company uses commercially reasonable efforts to obtain
a similar agreement from all shareholders individually owning more than five
percent (5%) of the Company's outstanding Ordinary Shares (on an as-converted
basis). The underwriters in connection with such registration are intended third
party beneficiaries of this Section 2.11 and shall have the right, power, and
authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto.
Each Holder further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably
requested by the underwriters in connection with such registration that are
consistent with this Section 2.11 or that are necessary to give further effect
thereto.

               (b) In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may
impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Securities of
each Holder (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to the
foregoing restriction) until the end of the applicable lock-up period and each
Holder agrees that, if so requested, such Holder will execute an agreement in
the form provided by the underwriter containing terms which are essentially
consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.11.

               (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations described in
this Section 2.11 shall not apply to an Excluded Registration.

          2.12. Termination of Registration Rights. The right of any Holder to
request registration or inclusion of Registrable Securities in any registration
pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 shall terminate upon the earliest to
occur of:

               (a) an agreement in writing by the Company, the Investor and the
Key Holder;

               (b) the closing of a Liquidation Event, as such term is defined
in the Articles;

               (c) when all of such Holder's Registrable Securities could be
sold without restriction under SEC Rule 144(k); or

               (d) the 5th anniversary of the Qualified Public Offering of the
Company.

                                       14
<PAGE>

          2.13. Foreign Registrations. To the extent the Company effects a
public offering or registration in a jurisdiction outside the U.S., the
registration rights afforded the Holders, and the intent of the related
provisions, hereunder shall, subject to the applicable securities regulations,
be carried out and applied as nearly as possible in such foreign jurisdiction as
if such public offering or registration were effected in the U.S.

          2.14. Restrictions on Transfer.

               (a) The Registrable Securities shall not be sold, pledged, or
otherwise transferred, and the Company shall not recognize any such sale,
pledge, or transfer, except upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions
specified in this Agreement, which conditions are intended to ensure compliance
with the provisions of the Securities Act. A transferring Holder will cause any
proposed purchaser, pledgee, or transferee of the Registrable Securities held by
such Holder to agree to take and hold such securities subject to the provisions
and upon the conditions specified in this Agreement.

               (b) Each certificate or instrument representing (i) the
Registrable Securities and (ii) any other securities issued in respect of the
securities referenced in clause (i) upon any share split, share dividend,
recapitalization, merger, consolidation, or similar event, shall (unless
otherwise permitted by the provisions of Section 2.12(c)) be stamped or
otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933. SUCH SHARES MAY NOT BE SOLD,
PLEDGED, OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR A VALID EXEMPTION
FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF SAID ACT.

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
TERMS OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH
IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.

The Holders consent to the Company making a notation in its records and giving
instructions to any transfer agent of the Restricted Securities in order to
implement the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 2.14.

               (c) The holder of each certificate representing Restricted
Securities, by acceptance thereof, agrees to comply in all respects with the
provisions of this Section 2. Before any proposed sale, pledge, or transfer of
any Restricted Securities, unless there is in effect a registration statement
under the Securities Act covering the proposed transaction, the Holder thereof
shall give notice to the Company of such Holder's intention to effect such sale,
pledge, or transfer. Each such notice shall describe the manner and
circumstances of the proposed sale, pledge, or transfer in sufficient detail
and, if reasonably requested by the Company, shall be accompanied at such
Holder's expense by either (i) a written opinion of legal counsel who shall, and
whose legal opinion shall, be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, addressed
to the Company, to the effect that the proposed transaction may be effected
without registration under

                                       15
<PAGE>

the Securities Act; (ii) a "no action" letter from the SEC to the effect that
the proposed sale, pledge, or transfer of such Restricted Securities without
registration will not result in a recommendation by the staff of the SEC that
action be taken with respect thereto; or (iii) any other evidence reasonably
satisfactory to counsel to the Company to the effect that the proposed sale,
pledge, or transfer of the Restricted Securities may be effected without
registration under the Securities Act, whereupon the Holder of such Restricted
Securities shall be entitled to sell, pledge, or transfer such Restricted
Securities in accordance with the terms of the notice given by the Holder to the
Company. The Company will not require such a legal opinion or "no action" letter
(x) in any transaction in compliance with SEC Rule 144 or (y) in any transaction
in which such Holder distributes Restricted Securities to an Affiliate of such
Holder for no consideration; provided that each transferee agrees in writing to
be subject to the terms of this Section 2.14. Each certificate or instrument
evidencing the Restricted Securities transferred as above provided shall bear,
except if such transfer is made pursuant to SEC Rule 144, the appropriate
restrictive legend set forth in Section 2.14(b), except that such certificate
shall not bear such restrictive legend if, in the opinion of counsel for such
Holder and the Company, such legend is not required in order to establish
compliance with any provisions of the Securities Act.

     3. Information Rights.

          3.1. Delivery of Financial Statements. Upon the request of a Holder of
at least ten percent (10%) of the outstanding Registrable Securities of the
Company, the Company shall deliver to such Holder:

               (a) as soon as practicable, but in any event within ninety (90)
days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, (i) a balance sheet as of
the end of such year, (ii) statements of income and of cash flows for such year,
and (iii) a statement of shareholders' equity as of the end of such year, all
such financial statements audited and certified by independent public
accountants of nationally recognized standing selected by the Company.

               Upon a determination by the Investor or any U.S. tax authority
that the Company or any subsidiary of the Company has been or is likely to
become a "passive foreign investment company", as defined by the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the Company will, as soon as
reasonably practicable following the end of each taxable year of the Company
(but in no event later than ninety (90) days following the end of each such
taxable year), provide the Investor with all information reasonably available to
the Company or the Company Subsidiaries to permit the Investor to (i) accurately
prepare all tax returns and comply with any reporting requirements as a result
of such determination and (ii) make any election (including, without limitation,
a "qualifying electing fund" election under Section 1295 of the Code) with
respect to the Company or any Company Subsidiaries, and comply with any
reporting or other requirements incident to such election.

               (b) as soon as practicable, but in any event within forty-five
(45) days after the end of each of the first three (3) quarters of each fiscal
year of the Company, a statement showing the number of shares of each class and
series of share capital and securities convertible into or exercisable for
shares outstanding at the end of the period, the Ordinary Shares issuable upon
conversion or exercise of any outstanding securities convertible or exercisable
for Ordinary Shares and the exchange ratio or exercise price applicable thereto,
and the number of shares of

                                       16
<PAGE>

issued share options and share options not yet issued but reserved for issuance,
if any, all in sufficient detail as to permit the Investor to calculate its
respective percentage equity ownership in the Company, and certified by the
chief financial officer or chief executive officer ("CEO") of the Company as
being true, complete, and correct;

               (c) as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30)
days of the end of each month, an unaudited income statement and statement of
cash flows for such month, and an unaudited balance sheet and statement of
shareholders' equity as of the end of such month, all prepared in accordance
with GAAP (except that such financial statements may (i) be subject to normal
year-end audit adjustments and (ii) not contain all notes thereto that may be
required in accordance with GAAP), and a management report summarizing progress
against Annual Budget (as defined below), including (i) comparisons between (x)
actual and forecast financial results and (y) actual and forecast capital
expenditures, (ii) progress against business development targets, and (iii) any
significant operational issues.

               (d) as soon as practicable, but in any event thirty (30) days
before the end of each fiscal year, a budget and business plan for the next
fiscal year (collectively, the "Annual Budget"), approved by the Board of
Directors and prepared on a monthly basis, including balance sheets, income
statements, and statements of cash flow for such months and, promptly after
prepared, any other budgets or revised budgets prepared by the Company;

               (e) such other information relating to the financial condition,
business, prospects, or corporate affairs of the Company as the Investor may
from time to time reasonably request; provided, however, that the Company shall
not be obligated under this Section 3.1 to provide information (i) that the
Company reasonably determines in good faith to be a trade secret or confidential
information (unless covered by an enforceable confidentiality agreement, in form
acceptable to the Company) or (ii) the disclosure of which would adversely
affect the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel.

If, for any period, the Company has any subsidiary whose accounts are
consolidated with those of the Company, then in respect of such period the
financial statements delivered pursuant to the foregoing sections shall be the
consolidated and consolidating financial statements of the Company and all such
consolidated subsidiaries.

          3.2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, as
soon as practicable, but in any event within ninety (90) days after the end of
each fiscal year of the Company, upon the request of the Investor, the Company
shall deliver to the Investor an environment monitoring report to the effect
that the applicable national and local environmental laws and regulations in PRC
and the IFC Performance Standards applicable to manufacturing companies have
been complied with by the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, or, in the event
of any non-compliance, to the effect of identifying such non-compliance and
setting out plans for rectifying such non-compliance.

          3.3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 3.1 and 3.2,
the Company may cease providing the information set forth in Section 3.1 and 3.2
during the period starting with the date thirty (30) days before the Company's
good-faith estimate of the date of filing of a registration statement if it
reasonably concludes it must do so to comply with the SEC

                                       17
<PAGE>

rules applicable to such registration statement and related offering; provided,
that the Company's covenants under Sections 3.1 and 3.2 shall be reinstated at
such time as the Company is no longer actively employing its commercially
reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective.

          3.4. Inspection. The Company shall permit a Holder of at least ten
percent (10%) of the Registrable Securities of the Company, at such Holder's
expense, to visit and inspect the properties of the Company (including the
Company Subsidiaries); examine its books of account and records; and discuss the
Company's affairs, finances, and accounts with its officers, during normal
business hours of the Company as may be reasonably requested by such Holder upon
five (5) Business Days' written notice; provided, however, that the Company
shall not be obligated pursuant to this Section 3.4 to provide access to any
information that it reasonably and in good faith considers to be a trade secret
or confidential information (unless covered by an enforceable confidentiality
agreement, in form acceptable to the Company) or the disclosure of which would
adversely affect the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its
counsel.

          3.5. Termination of Information and Inspection Rights. The covenants
set forth in Section 3 shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon
the earliest to occur of any of the following: (i) an agreement in writing by
the Company, the Investor and the Key Holder; (ii) immediately before the
consummation of a Qualified Public Offering or (iii) upon a Liquidation Event,
as such term is defined in the Articles.

     4. Rights to Future Share Issuances.

          4.1. Right of First Offer. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Section 4.1 and applicable securities laws, if the Company proposes to offer or
sell any New Securities, the Company shall first offer such New Securities to
the Holders.

               (a) The Company shall give notice (the "Offer Notice") to the
Holders, stating (i) its bona fide intention to offer such New Securities, (ii)
the number of such New Securities to be offered, and (iii) the price and terms,
if any, upon which it proposes to offer such New Securities.

               (b) By notification to the Company within twenty (20) days after
the Offer Notice is given, such Holder may elect to purchase or otherwise
acquire, at the price and on the terms specified in the Offer Notice, up to that
portion of such New Securities which equals the proportion that the number of
Ordinary Shares issued and held, or issuable (directly or indirectly) upon
conversion and/or exercise, as applicable, of the Registrable Securities then
held, by such Holder bears to the total number of Ordinary Shares of the Company
then outstanding (on an as-converted basis). At the expiration of such twenty
(20) day period, the Company shall promptly notify the Holder that elects to
purchase or acquire all the shares available to it (each, a "Fully Exercising
Shareholder") of any other Holder's failure to do likewise. During the ten (10)
day period commencing after the Company has given such notice, each Fully
Exercising Shareholder may, by giving notice to the Company, elect to purchase
or acquire, in addition to the number of shares specified above, up to that
portion of the New Securities for which such Full Exercising Shareholder was
entitled to subscribe but that were not

                                       18
<PAGE>

subscribed for by the relevant shareholders which is equal to the proportion
that the number of Ordinary Shares then held by such Fully Exercising Holder (on
an as-converted basis) bears to the number of Ordinary Shares then held by all
Fully Exercising Holders who wish to purchase such unsubscribed shares (on an
as-converted basis). The closing of any sale pursuant to this Section 4.1(b)
shall occur within the later of ninety (90) days of the date that the Offer
Notice is given and the date of initial sale of New Securities pursuant to
Section 4.1(c).

               (c) If all New Securities referred to in the Offer Notice are not
elected to be purchased or acquired as provided in Section 4.1(b), the Company
may, during the ninety (90) day period following the expiration of the periods
provided in Section 4.1(b), offer and sell the remaining unsubscribed portion of
such New Securities to any Person or Persons at a price not less than, and upon
terms no more favorable to the offeree than, those specified in the Offer
