the Notes for, or obtain exemption for the Notes for, sale to the Investor
at
the Closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or “Blue Sky”
laws of the states of the United States, and shall provide evidence of any
such

other information made available or given to the stockholders of the Company
generally, contemporaneously with the making available or giving thereof to
the
stockholders. As of the date hereof, the Company is not a reporting company
and
therefore the Company does not prepare Quarterly Reports on Form 10-QSB or
Annual Reports on Form 10-KSB. Accordingly, the Company shall send to each
Investor, within 90 days after its fiscal year end and 45 days after the end
of
each fiscal quarter, financial statements of the Company, including a balance
sheet, statement of operations and statement of cash flows prepared in
accordance with GAAP.

by Company.
To the
extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the
Investor, their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, directors,
partners and members (each an “Indemnified Party”), from and against any and all
Damages, and shall reimburse the Indemnified Parties for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of legal
counsel), in each case promptly as incurred by such Indemnified Party and to
the
extent arising out of or in connection with:
|
(i)
|
any
misrepresentation, omission of fact or breach of any of the Company’s
representations or warranties contained in any of the Transaction
Documents, the annexes, schedules or exhibits thereto or any instrument,

pursuant

|
(ii)
|
any
failure by the Company to perform in any material respect any of
its
covenants, agreements, undertakings or obligations set forth in any
of the
Transaction Documents, the annexes, schedules or exhibits thereto
or any
instrument, agreement or certificate entered into or delivered by
the
Company pursuant hereto or thereto;
or

|
(iii)
|
any
action instituted against the Investor, or any of them, by any stockholder
of the Company who is not an Affiliate of the Investor, with respect
to
any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents.
|
provided,
however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7.2 shall not
apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability,
or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and that the Company shall
not be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability,
or
action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a statement,
omission, or violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished in a certificate expressly for use in connection
with such registration by any such Investor, underwriter or controlling
person.
Section
7.3 Indemnity
by Investor.
To the
extent permitted by law, each Investor will indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, each of its directors and officers, any underwriters (as defined in
the
Securities Act) for the Company, each person, if any, who controls the Company
or any such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the 1934
Act, and any Investor selling securities in such registration statement or
any
of its directors or officers or any person who controls such Investor (each
an
“Indemnified Party”) against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereto) which arise out of or are based upon any of the
following statements, omissions or violations (“Violation”), in each case to the
extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon
and
in conformity with written information furnished by such Investor in a
certificate expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each
such Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
by
the Company or any such director, officer, any person who controls the Company,
any underwriter or controlling person of any such underwriter, any other such
Investor, officer, director, or controlling person in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action;
provided however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7.3
shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the
Investor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and provided
further that the obligations of each selling Investor of the shares sold by
each
such selling Investor pursuant to such registration.
12
Section
7.4 Contribution.
If a
court of competent jurisdiction holds that the foregoing indemnity is
unavailable, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid
or
payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
the
relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and the
indemnified party on the other (taking into consideration, among other things,
the fact that the provision of the registration rights and indemnification
hereunder is a material inducement to the Investors to purchase Registrable
Securities) or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not
permitted by applicable law or provides a lesser sum to the indemnified party
than the amount hereinafter calculated, in such proportion as is appropriate
to
reflect not only the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on
the
one hand and the indemnified party on the other (taking into consideration,
among other things, the fact that the provision of the registration rights
and
indemnification hereunder is a material inducement to the Investors to purchase
Registrable Securities) but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party
and the indemnified party 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 or on behalf of the indemnifying party or the
indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or
omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning
of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from
any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7., no Investor shall
be required, pursuant to this Section 7., to contribute any amount in excess
of
the net proceeds received by such indemnifying party from the sale of securities
in the offering to which the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses
of
the indemnified party relate.
Section
7.5. Notice.
Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party seeking indemnification pursuant
to Section 7.2 or Section 7.4 of written notice of any investigation, claim,
proceeding or other action in respect of which indemnification is being sought
(each, a “Claim”),
the
Indemnified Party promptly shall notify the other party of the commencement
thereof; but the omission so to notify the other party shall not relieve it
from
any liability that it otherwise may have to the Indemnified Party, except to
the
extent that the other party is actually prejudiced by such omission or delay.
In
connection with any Claim as to which both the Indemnified Party and the other
party are parties, the other party shall be entitled to assume the defense
thereof. Notwithstanding the assumption of the defense of any Claim by the
other
party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate legal
counsel and to participate in the defense of such Claim, and the other party
shall bear the reasonable fees, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such
separate legal counsel to the Indemnified Party if (and only if): (x) the other
party shall have agreed to pay such fees, out-of-pocket costs and expenses,
(y)
the Indemnified Party reasonably shall have concluded that representation of
the
Indemnified Party and the other party by the same legal counsel would not be
appropriate due to actual or, as reasonably determined by legal counsel to
the
Indemnified Party, potentially differing interests between such parties in
the
conduct of the defense of such Claim, or if there may be legal defenses
available to the Indemnified Party that are in addition to or disparate from
those available to the other party, or (z) the other party shall have failed
to
employ legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party within
a
reasonable period of time after notice of the commencement of such Claim. If
the
Indemnified Party employs separate legal counsel in circumstances other than
as
described in clauses (x), (y) or (z) above, the fees, costs and expenses of
such
legal counsel shall be borne exclusively by the Indemnified Party. Except as
provided above, the other party shall not, in connection with any Claim in
the
same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one firm
of
legal counsel for the Indemnified Party (together with appropriate local
counsel). The other party shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Indemnified Party (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld), settle
or
compromise any Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment that does not
include an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liabilities
with respect to such Claim or judgment.
13
Section
7.6. Direct
Claims.
In the
event an Indemnified Party should have a claim for indemnification that does
not
involve a claim or demand being asserted by a third party, the Indemnified
Party
promptly shall deliver notice of such claim to the other party. If the
Indemnified Party disputes the claim, such dispute shall be resolved by mutual
agreement of the Indemnified Party and the other party or by binding arbitration
conducted in accordance with the procedures and rules of the American
Arbitration Association as set forth in Article X. Judgment upon any award
rendered by any arbitrators may be entered in any court having competent
jurisdiction thereof.

Diligence Review; Non-Disclosure of Non-Public

Diligence Review.
Subject
to Section 8.2, the Company shall make available for inspection and review
by
the Investor, advisors to and representatives of the Investor (who may or may
not be affiliated with the Investor and who are reasonably acceptable to the
Company), any underwriter participating in any disposition of the Registrable
Securities on behalf of the Investor pursuant to the Registration Statement,
any
such registration statement or amendment or supplement thereto or any blue
sky,
Nasdaq or other filing, and if applicable, all SEC Documents and other filings
with the SEC, and all other publicly available corporate documents and
properties of the Company as may be reasonably necessary for the purpose of
such
review, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all
such publicly available information reasonably requested by the Investor or
any
such representative, advisor or underwriter in connection with such Registration
Statement (including, without limitation, in response to all questions and
other
inquiries reasonably made or submitted by any of them), prior to and from time
to time after the filing and effectiveness of the Registration Statement for
the
sole purpose of enabling the Investor and such representatives, advisors and
underwriters and their respective accountants and attorneys to conduct initial
and ongoing due diligence with respect to the Company and the accuracy of the
Registration Statement.
Section
8.2. Non-Disclosure
of Non-Public Information.
(a) The
Company shall not further disclose material non-public information to the
Investor, advisors to or representatives of the Investor unless prior to
disclosure of such information the Company identifies such information as being
non-public information and provides the Investor, such advisors and
representatives with the opportunity to accept or refuse to accept such
non-public information for review. Other than disclosure of any comment letters
received from the SEC staff with respect to the Registration Statement, the
Company may, as a condition to disclosing any non-public information hereunder,
require the Investor’ advisors and representatives to enter into a
confidentiality agreement in form and content reasonably satisfactory to the
Company and the Investor. With respect to material non-public information
disclosed to Investor prior to Closing under Confidentiality Agreement, Investor
shall remain bound by the terms of that Confidentiality Agreement.
(b) Nothing
herein shall require the Company to disclose material non-public information
to
the Investor or their advisors or representatives, and the Company represents
that, outside of disclosures made pursuant to written confidentiality
agreements, it does not disseminate material non-public information to any
investors who purchase stock in the Company in a public offering, to money
managers or to securities analysts; provided, however, that notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Company will, as hereinabove provided,
promptly notify the advisors and representatives of the Investor and, if any,
underwriters, of any event or the existence of any circumstance (without any
obligation to disclose the specific event or circumstance) of which it becomes
aware, constituting material non-public information (whether or not requested
of
the Company specifically or generally during the course of due diligence by
such
persons or entities), which, if not disclosed in the prospectus included in
the
Registration Statement would cause such prospectus to include a material
misstatement or to omit a material fact required to be stated therein in order
to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they
were
made, not misleading. Nothing contained in this Section 8.2 shall be construed
to mean that such persons or entities other than the Investor (without the
written consent of the Investor prior to disclosure of such information as
set
forth in Section 8.2(a)) may not obtain non-public information in the course
of
conducting due diligence in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and
nothing herein shall prevent any such persons or entities from notifying the
Company of their opinion that based on such due diligence by such persons or
entities, that the Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a
material fact or omits a material fact required to be stated in the Registration
Statement or necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of
the
circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

14. REGISTRATION
RIGHTS.
The
Investor shall have the rights of registration set forth in this Section 14
with
respect to any or all of the Warrant Shares and shares underlying the
Notes.
14.1 Joining
Registration Statements.
If at
any time or times, the Company proposes to file one or more Registration
Statements(except for the Registration Statement for the First Montauk
Investors) on Form SB-2, X-0, X-0, X-0 or other appropriate form for the
registration of its Common Stock or other equity securities under the Act for
a
public offering, whether or not underwritten (excluding the issuance of shares
pursuant to employees' options, incentive or similar plans, or in connection
with an acquisition, merger or exchange of securities which involves no
distribution for cash), it shall give a Notice of Registration to the Investor
and shall include in each Registration Statement referred to in such notice
all
such Shares and Warrant Shares with respect to which the Investor shall have
delivered to the Company a Notice of Intent to Sell within 20 days after the
Company has given its Notice of Registration. Such Notice of Registration shall
be given not later than ten days prior to the filing of any such Registration
Statement and such Registration Statement will not be filed unless the Investor
has at least ten days actual notice. All expenses incurred by the Company in
complying with the foregoing registration requirements (except fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Investor; underwriting discounts, commissions
or similar expenses to be incurred in connection with the sale of Shares and
Warrant Shares to be registered for the Investor) shall be borne by the Company.
The Company shall have no obligation to register any Securities under this
Section 7.1 unless the Investor agrees to join in the underwriting arrangements,
if any, proposed for the other securities being registered on the same terms
as
other similarly situated participants in the distribution, unless such
underwriters decline to include the Shares and Warrant Shares therein in which
event the Company may delay the delivery of prospectuses to the Investor and
the
Investor will agree not to sell the Shares or Warrant Shares registered for
a
period not in excess of 90 days from the effective date of such Registration
Statement.
14.2 Notice
of Intent to Sell and Notice of Registration.“Notice
of Intent to Sell” shall mean a written notice signed by the Investor (i)
setting forth the number of Shares which the Investor desires to have registered
for sale, (ii) representing that the Investor has a present intention to sell
the same, (iii) setting forth the intended method by which such sale will be
effected and the names of the underwriters, if any; whose services are intended
to be used to effect such sale, and (iv) agreeing to execute all consents,
powers of attorneys, registration statements, and other documents required
in
order to permit such Registration Statement to be made effective and carry
out
the distribution. “Notice of Registration” shall mean a written notice signed by
an officer of the Company and setting forth the approximate date on which it
intends to file a Registration Statement on Form XX-0, X-0, X-0 or S-3 or other
appropriate form for the registration of its Common Stock pursuant to the Act,
and the approximate date on which it contemplates such Registration Statement
will become effective whether the Registration Statement is being
filed.

14.3 Indemnification.The
obligation of the Company to register Shares and Warrant Shares for the Investor
pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to the receipt by the Company of
an
agreement from the Investor and each underwriter of any securities registered
for the Investor, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company,
indemnifying the Company against liability arising out of or based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in the
Registration Statement or the omission or alleged omission to state therein
any
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
statements therein not misleading, if such statement or omission was made by
the
Company in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to
the Company specifically for use in such Registration Statement by or on behalf
of the Investor with respect to the Investor or any underwriter of any
securities registered for the Investor. In connection with registration under
the Act of securities owned by the Investor, the Company hereby agrees to
indemnify the Investor and each underwriter of any securities registered for
the
Investor against liability arising out of or based upon any untrue statement
or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration statement filed
by
the Company pursuant hereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state in
such Registration Statement any material fact required to be stated therein
or
necessary in order to make the statement therein not misleading, other than
any
such statement included in, or omission from, such Registration Statement by
the
Company in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to
the Company, specifically for use therein by or on behalf of the Investor with
respect to the Investor or by any underwriter of the securities included therein
and to join in an underwriting agreement having usual and customary terms,
including customary representations, warranties and agreements (in addition
to
the indemnification agreements provided by this Section 14.3).
14.4 Certain
Terms and Conditions.
The
following provisions shall be applicable to all registration rights granted

to
the Investor exercising its rights under 14.1 to make offerings in
the
same manner as other shares registered therein for sale by the Company
by
way of a firm underwriting;
|
|
(b)
|
in
the event that the Investor was afforded an opportunity to join in
a
Registration Statement under Section 14.1 (pursuant to which sales
were
consummated), and either declined to join therein or included securities
therein, then the Investor may not request to be included in a
Registration Statement under Section 14.1 for a period of six (6)
months
after the Investor received the Notice of Registration with respect
to the
Registration Statement in which the Investor participated or declined
to
participate;
|
|
(c)

the
Company shall not be required to maintain any Registration Statement
under

Investor;
|
|
(d)
|
the
Company need not include the Warrant Shares or shares underlying
the Notes
owned by the Investor in any Registration Statement provided for
under
Section 14.1 if in the opinion of counsel for the Company satisfactory
to
counsel for the Investor, registration of such securities under the
Act is
not necessary for the Investor to dispose of such securities in a
public
offering and distribution in the open market in compliance with the
Act;
provided, in such case the opinion of such counsel shall be in writing
addressed to the Investor and shall be rendered within twenty (20)
days

or
regulation of the Commission allowing it to sell any such securities
without registration; and
|
|
(d)
|
the
Company will transfer the Warrant Shares and shares underlying the
Notes
at the request of Investor provided it receives an opinion of counsel,
reasonably acceptable to the Company, that such transfer would not
violate
the Act or applicable state securities laws and will remove the
restrictive legend from the certificate for the shares at the request
of
Investor provided it receives an opinion of counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Company that the presence of such legend is not
required to assure compliance with the Act or applicable state securities
laws.
