misrepresentation by Company or breach of any warranty by Company in this
Agreement or in any Exhibits or Schedules attached hereto, or other
agreement delivered pursuant hereto; or (ii) after any applicable notice
and/or cure periods, any breach or default in performance by the Company of

affiliates, control persons against any claim, cost, expense, liability,
obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature,
incurred by or imposed upon the Company or any such person which results,

hereunder, or any other agreement entered into by the Company and
Subscribes relating hereto.
(c) The procedures set forth in Section 8.6 shall apply to the
indemnifications set forth in Sections 7(a) and 7(b) above.
8.1. Registration Rights. The Company hereby grants the following
registration rights to holders of the Securities.
(i) On one occasion, for a period commencing 121 days after the
Closing Date, but not later than three years after the Closing Date
("Request Date"), the Company, upon a written request therefor from any
record holder or holders of the Company Shares actually issued hereunder
(the Company Shares issued hereunder on the Closing Date, and one share of
common stock issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, collectively
the "Registrable Securities"), shall prepare and file with the Commission a
registration statement under the 1933 Act covering the Registrable
Securities which are the subject of such request, unless such Registrable
Securities are the subject of an effective registration statement or
included for registration in a pending registration statement. In addition,
upon the receipt of such request, the Company shall promptly give written
notice to all other record holders of the Registrable Securities that such
registration statement is to be filed and shall include in such
registration statement Registrable Securities for which it has received
written requests within 10 days after the Company gives such written
notice. Such other requesting record holders shall be deemed to have
exercised their demand registration right under this Section 8.1(i).
(ii) If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its
securities under the 1933 Act for sale to the public, whether for its own
account or for the account of other security holders or both, except with
respect to registration statements on Forms X-0, X-0 or another form not
available for registering the Registrable Securities for sale to the
public, provided the Registrable Securities are not otherwise registered
for resale by the Subscriber or Holder pursuant to an effective
registration statement, each such time it will give at least 15 days' prior
written notice to the record holder of the Registrable Securities of its
intention so to do. Upon the written request of the holder, received by the
Company within 10 days after the giving of any such notice by the Company,
to register any of the Registrable Securities, the Company will cause such
Registrable Securities as to which registration shall have been so
requested to be included with the securities to be covered by the
registration statement proposed to be filed by the Company, all to the
extent required to permit the sale or other disposition of the Registrable
Securities so registered by the holder of such Registrable Securities (the
"Seller"). In the event that any registration pursuant to this Section
8.1(ii) shall be, in whole or in part, an underwritten public offering of
common stock of the Company, the number of shares of Registrable Securities
to be included in such an underwriting may be reduced by the managing
underwriter if and to the extent that the Company and the underwriter shall
10
CNEX SUBSCRIPTION FINAL
reasonably be of the opinion that such inclusion would adversely affect the
marketing of the securities to be sold by the Company therein; provided,
however, that the Company shall notify the Seller in writing of any such
reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, or Section 8.4 hereof,
the Company may withdraw or delay or suffer a delay of any registration
statement referred to in this Section 8.1(ii) without thereby incurring any
liability to the Seller.
(iii) If, at the time any written request for registration is received
by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(i), the Company has determined to
proceed with the actual preparation and filing of a registration statement
under the 1933 Act in connection with the proposed offer and sale for cash
of any of its securities for the Company's own account and the Company
actually does file such other registration statement, such written request
shall be deemed to have been given pursuant to Section 8.1(ii) rather than
Section 8.1(i), and the rights of the holders of Registrable Securities
covered by such written request shall be governed by Section 8.1(ii).
(iv) The Company shall file with the Commission not later than thirty
(30) days after the Final Closing Date (the "Filing Date"), and use its
reasonable commercial efforts to cause to be declared effective within
ninety (90) days after the Final Closing Date (the "Effective Date"), a
Form SB-2 registration statement (the "Registration Statement") (or such
other form that it is eligible to use) in order to register the Registrable
Securities for resale and distribution under the 1933 Act. The Company will
register not less than a number of shares of common stock in the
aforedescribed registration statement that is equal to the number of
Company Shares issued on the Closing Date and one share of common stock for
each of the common shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The
Registrable Securities shall be reserved and set aside exclusively for the
benefit of the Subscriber, and not issued, employed or reserved for anyone
other than the Subscriber. Such registration statement will expeditiously
be amended or additional registration statements will be immediately filed
by the Company as necessary to register additional Company Shares to allow
the public resale of all Common Stock included in and issuable by virtue of
the Registrable Securities.
8.2. Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required by
the provisions hereof to effect the registration of any shares of Registrable
Securities under the 1933 Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:
(a) prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement
required by Section 8.1, with respect to such securities and use its best
efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective
for the period of the distribution contemplated thereby (determined as
herein provided), and promptly provide to the holders of Registrable
Securities ("Sellers") copies of all filings and Commission letters of
comment;
(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in
connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration
statement effective until the earlier of: (i) twelve months after all the
Company Shares are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the 1933
Act; or (ii) until such Registration Statement has been effective for a
period of not less than 365 days; or (iii) until all the Registrable
Securities have been sold without further restrictions on resale.
(c) furnish to the Seller, at the Company's expense, not fewer than 10
copies of the registration statement and the prospectus included therein
(including each preliminary prospectus) as the Seller may request in order
to facilitate the public sale or disposition of the Registrable Securities;
11
CNEX SUBSCRIPTION FINAL
(d) use its best efforts to register or qualify the Seller's
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under the
securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as reasonably requested
by Seller, provided, however, that the Company shall not for any such
purpose be required to qualify generally to transact business as a foreign
corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to consent
to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;
(e) list the Registrable Securities covered by such registration
statement with any securities exchange on which the Common Stock of the
Company is then listed;
(f) immediately notify the Seller, when a prospectus relating thereto
is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, of the happening of any
event of which the Company has knowledge as a result of which the
prospectus contained in such 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 misleading in light of the circumstances then
existing;
(g) provided same would not be in violation of the provision of
Regulation FD under the 1934 Act, make available for inspection by the
Seller, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Seller
or underwriter, all publicly available, non-confidential financial and
other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company,
and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all
publicly available, non-confidential information reasonably requested by
the seller, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such
registration statement.
8.3. Provision of Documents. In connection with each registration described
in this Section 8, the Seller will furnish to the Company in writing such
information and representation letters with respect to itself and the proposed
distribution by it as reasonably shall be necessary in order to assure
compliance with federal and applicable state securities laws. In connection with
each registration pursuant to Section 8.1(i) or 8.1(ii) covering an underwritten
public offering, the Company and the Seller agree to enter into a written
agreement with the managing underwriter in such form and containing such
provisions as are customary in the securities business for such an arrangement
between such underwriter and companies of the Company's size and investment
stature.
8.4. Non-Registration Events. The Company and the Subscriber agree that the
Seller will suffer damages if any registration statement required under Section
8.1(iii) or 8.1(iv) above is not filed within 45 days after the Final Closing
Date and/or not declared effective by the Commission within 90 days after such
request [or the Filing Date and Effective Date, respectively, in reference to
the Registration Statement on Form SB-2 or such other form described in Section
8.1(iv)], and maintained in the manner and within the time periods contemplated
by Section 8 hereof, and it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of
such damages with precision. Accordingly, if (i) the Registration Statement
described in Sections 8.1(i) or 8.1(ii) or 8.1 (iii) is not filed within 45 days
after the Final Closing Date or is not declared effective by the Commission on
or prior to the date that is 90 days after filing, or (ii) the registration
statement on Form SB-2 or such other form described in Section 8.1(iv) is not
filed on or before the Filing Date or not declared effective on or before the
sooner of the Effective Date, or within ten (10) business days of receipt by the
Company of a written or oral communication from the Commission that the
registration statement described in Section 8.1(iv) will not be reviewed, or
(iii) any registration statement described in Sections 8.1(i), 8.1(ii) or
8.1(iii) or 8.1(iv) is filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease
to be effective (without being succeeded immediately by an additional
registration statement filed and declared effective) for a period of time which
shall exceed 45 days in the aggregate per year or more than 20 consecutive
calendar days (defined as a period of 365 days commencing on the date the
Registration Statement is declared effective) (each such event referred to in
clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 8.4 is referred to herein as a
"Non-Registration Event"), then, for so long as such Non-Registration Event
shall continue, until the Registrable Securities are eligible for resale
12
CNEX SUBSCRIPTION FINAL
pursuant to Rule 144 without regard to volume limitations, the Company shall pay
in cash as Liquidated Damages to each holder of any Registrable Securities an
amount equal to one (1%) percent for the first 30 days or part thereof, and two
(2%) percent per 30-day period or part thereof thereafter, of the Purchase Price
of the number of Company Shares which are not eligible for unrestricted sale or
transfer and based upon the percentage of the actually paid Purchase Price (as
defined in the Warrant) of the Common Stock issued or issuable upon exercise of
the Warrant, during the pendency of such Non-Registration Event for the
Registrable Securities owned of record by such holder as of or subsequent to the
occurrence of such Non-Registration Event. Payments to be made pursuant to this
Section 8.4 shall be due and payable within ten (10) business days after demand
in immediately available funds. Provided that (y) the Company fully responds to
letters of comment made by the Commission in its review of the Registration
Statement within seven days of the receipt of such letters of comment by the
Company or its counsel, and (z) that the actual effective date of the
Registration Statement is not later than 120 days after the Closing Date, then
for purposes of only this Section 8.4 and Section 9.2, "Effective Date" shall
mean 120 days after the Final Closing Date.
8.5Look Back Period.
(i) First Lookback If upon the date of effective registration the
average 10 day closing bid price according to Bloomberg is below the
purchase price (0.045) the investor shall immediately receive an additional
amount of free trading common stock equal to 100% of the principal
multiplied by the difference between 5.4 cents and the market price. Should
the issuer not want to deliver these additional shares, they have the right
to redeem the investor at 120% of principal in cash within 5 business days.
In that event, issuer has no further obligations.
(ii) Second Lookback Commencing upon the earlier of the subscribers
total liquidation of his shares or one hundred twenty (120) days from the
date of the effective registration, if any average ten trading days;
closing bid price is below four and a half cents ($0.045), the issuer
agrees to issue additional common stock at market price (the average ten
day closing price) to make up the difference between the five and four
tenths cents ($0.054) and the market price. In the event that the investors
total return exceeded 110%, no additional shares will be issued.. The
subscriber will forward all trading records with the written request for an
additional issuance to the Company. The additional issuance will be based
on the total investment by the Subscriber. The Warrants are not eligible
for an additional issuance. In lieu of issuing additional stock, Issuer has
the option to redeem 120% of the original investment i.e. five and four
tenths cents ($0.054) per share in cash. The Company shall register a total
of 40 million shares on a Form SB-2 registration, pursuant to the
registration rights as set forth above. These additional shares are to be
issued pursuant to this look-back clause when and if necessary.
8.6. Expenses. All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with
Section 8, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees,
printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public
accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including reasonable counsel
fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or "blue sky"
laws, fees of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., transfer
taxes, fees of transfer agents and registrars, and costs of insurance are called
"Registration Expenses". All underwriting discounts and selling commissions
applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities, including any fees and
disbursements of any special counsel to the Seller, are called "Selling
Expenses". The Seller shall pay the fees of its own additional counsel, if any.
The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the
registration statement under Section 8. Selling Expenses in connection with each
registration statement under Section 8 shall be borne by the Seller and may be
apportioned among the Sellers in proportion to the number of shares sold by the
Seller relative to the number of shares sold under such registration statement
or as all Sellers thereunder may agree.

against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to
which the Seller, or such underwriter or controlling person may become

Securities was registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 8, any
preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any
amendment or supplement thereof, 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 in light of the circumstances when made, and will subject to the
provisions of Section 8.6(c) reimburse the Seller, each such underwriter
and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such
loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be liable to the Seller to the extent that any such
damages arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or omission made
in any preliminary prospectus if (i) the Seller failed to send or deliver a
copy of the final prospectus delivered by the Company to the Seller with or
prior to the delivery of written confirmation of the sale by the Seller to
the person asserting the claim from which such damages arise, (ii) the
final prospectus would have corrected such untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement or such omission or alleged omission, or (iii) to the
extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is
based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished by any
such Seller, or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use
in such registration statement or prospectus.
(b) In the event of a registration of any of the Registrable

claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or
such officer, director, underwriter or controlling person may become
subject under the 1933 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 under which such Registrable
Securities were registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 8, any
preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any
amendment or supplement thereof, 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, and will reimburse the Company and each such officer, director,
14
CNEX SUBSCRIPTION FINAL
underwriter and controlling person for any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending
any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, provided, however, that
the Seller will be liable hereunder in any such case if and only to the
extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is
based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information
pertaining to such Seller, as such, furnished in writing to the Company by
such Seller specifically for use in such registration statement or
prospectus, and provided, further, however, that the liability of the
Seller hereunder shall be limited to the gross proceeds received by the
Seller from the sale of Registrable Securities covered by such registration
statement.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice
of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim
in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder,
notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission so to
notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which
it may have to such indemnified party other than under this Section 8.6(c)
and shall only relieve it from any liability which it may have to such
indemnified party under this Section 8.6(c), except and only if and to the
extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such omission. In case any
such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall
notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying
party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish,
to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to
such indemnified party, and, after notice from the indemnifying party to
such indemnified party of its election so to assume and undertake the
defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such
indemnified party under this Section 8.6(c) for any legal expenses
subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the
defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison
with counsel so selected, provided, however, that, if the defendants in any
such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party
and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be
reasonable defenses available to it which are different from or additional
to those available to the indemnifying party or if the interests of the
indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests
of the indemnifying party, the indemnified parties, as a group, shall have
the right to select one separate counsel and to assume such legal defenses
and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the
reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses
related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as
incurred.
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in the
event of joint liability under the 1933 Act in any case in which either (i)
the Seller, or any controlling person of the Seller, makes a claim for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 8.6 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 8.6 provides for
indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the 1933 Act may
be required on the part of the Seller or controlling person of the Seller
in circumstances for which indemnification is not[?] provided under this
Section 8.6; then, and in each such case, the Company and the Seller will
contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which
they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion so
that the Seller is responsible only for the portion represented by the
percentage that the public offering price of its securities offered by the
registration statement bears to the public offering price of all securities
offered by such registration statement, provided, however, that, in any
such case, (y) the Seller will not be required to contribute any amount in
excess of the public offering price of all such securities offered by it
pursuant to such registration statement; and (z) no person or entity guilty
of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the
0000 Xxx) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who
was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

program, upon request of the Subscriber and its compliance with the
provisions contained in this paragraph, so long as the certificates
therefore do not bear a legend and the Subscriber is not obligated to
return such certificate for the placement of a legend thereon, the Company
shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically
transmit the Unlegended Shares by crediting the account of Subscriber's
prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission
system.
(c) The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the
Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 8 hereof beyond the Delivery Date

Subscriber for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payments to the

accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or
injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement
and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof or thereof,
this being in addition to any other remedy to which any of them may be
entitled by law or equity. Injunctive relief is not limited to paragraphs
in which it is explicitly set forth, but rather to all specific terms
whereby the parties would be entitled to injunctive relief. It is further
agreed that during any time period where the Company deems it would be
entitled to injunctive relief to enforce the terms pursuant to paragraphs 1
(i) and (j) the Look Back Provision shall be null and void during that time
period and until such time as a court of competent jurisdiction has found
that said terms had not been violated. Subject to Section 9(e) hereof, each
of the Company and Subscriber hereby waives, and agrees not to assert in
any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally
subject to the jurisdiction of such court, that the suit, action or
proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of the
suit, action or proceeding is improper. Nothing in this Section shall
affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by
law.
(g) Automatic Termination. This Agreement shall automatically
terminate without any further action of either party hereto if the Closing
shall not have occurred by the tenth (10th) business day following the date
this Agreement is accepted by the Subscriber.
