Asset Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company has issued or will issue
to Purchaser 11,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock, $.001 par value
("Common Stock") and all shares of the Company's Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock ("Preferred Stock").
B. The parties desire to establish a procedure for the registration and resale

Preferred Stock held by the Purchaser.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, covenants and
releases contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
A G R E E M E N T
-----------------
1. Certain Definitions. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall
have the following respective meanings:
(a) "Commission" means the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other
United States federal agency at the time administering the Securities Act.
(b) "Holder" means the Purchaser holding Registrable Securities and any
holder of outstanding Registrable Securities which have not been sold to
the public, but only if such holder is an assignee or transferee of

hold at least fifty percent (50%) of the Registrable Securities.

securities laws.
(e) "Registrable Securities" means (i) the Common Stock purchased by
Purchasers pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, and (ii) all Common
Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock in accordance with
its terms. In the event of any recapitalization by the Company, whether by
stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend or the like, such
additional securities shall be Registrable Securities covered by this
Agreement.
(f) "Registration Expenses" means all expenses incurred by the Company in
complying with Section 2, including, without limitation, all federal and

underwriters and stock transfer taxes applicable to the sale of Registrable
Securities pursuant to this Agreement, which such Selling Expenses shall be
prorated among selling stockholders if such Registration includes
securities other than Registrable Securities.
(i) "Underwriter" means any underwriter which acts as an underwriter in
connection with a Registration Statement.
2. Demand Registration.
------------------------
2.1 Request for Registration. Subject to the remainder of this Agreement, if
the Company shall receive, from Holders who in the aggregate hold more than
thirty percent (30%) of the then outstanding Registrable Securities or any
lesser percent if the reasonably anticipated aggregate offering price to the
public would exceed $5,000,000, at any time after the date of this Agreement, a
written request that the Company effect any Registration with respect to all or
a part of the Registrable Securities for a firm-commitment underwritten offering
thereof, the Company shall (i) promptly, but in any event within 10 days, give
written notice of the proposed Registration to all other Holders and shall (ii)
use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect Registration of the
Registrable Securities specified in such request as soon as practicable,
together with any Registrable Securities of any Holder, joining in such request
as are specified in a written request delivered to the Company within 30 days
after delivery of such written notice from the Company of the proposed
Registration. The Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect
any such Registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 after the Company has
effected three such Registrations pursuant to this Section 2.1 and each such
Registration has been declared effective.
2.2. Right of Deferral of Registration. If the Company shall furnish to all such
Holders who joined in the request a certificate signed by the President of the
Company stating that, in the good faith business judgment of the Board of
Directors of the Company, it would be commercially unreasonable for the Company
for any Registration to be effected as requested under this Section 2, the
Company shall have the right, exercisable once with respect to each demand for
Registration, to defer the filing of the Registration Statement with respect to
such offering for a period of not more than 150 days from delivery of the
request of the Initiating Holders.
2.3. Underwriting in Demand Registration.
----------------------------------------
(a) Notice of Underwriting. The right of any Holder to Registration
pursuant to Section 2 shall be conditioned upon the agreement of such
Holder to participate in such underwriting and the inclusion of Registrable
Securities in the underwriting.
2
(b) Inclusion of Other Holders in Demand Registration. The Company shall be
entitled to include any other of its securities held by any other person in
any Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.
(c) Selection of Underwriter in Demand Registration. The Company shall
(together with all holders proposing to distribute their securities through
such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement with the
representative ("Underwriter's Representative") of the underwriter or
underwriters selected for such underwriting by the holders of a majority of
the Registrable Securities being registered by the Initiating Holders and
reasonably satisfactory to the Company.
(d) Marketing Limitation in Demand Registration. If the Underwriter's
Representative advises the Initiating Holders in writing that market
factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten,
the securities held by persons who are not Holders shall be excluded from
such Registration to the extent required by such limitation. If a
limitation in the number of shares is still required, the Initiating
Holders shall so advise all Holders and the number of shares of Registrable
Securities that may be included in the Registration and underwriting shall
be excluded pro rata based (as between the holders of Registrable
Securities) on percentage ownership of the Company. No Registrable
Securities or other securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of
this Section 2.3(d) shall be included in such Registration Statement. If
the number of shares of Registrable Securities so excluded exceeds 20% of
the number of shares of Registrable Securities which are requested to be
included in such Registration, then the Initiating Holders shall be
entitled, on behalf of the Holders, to require, by delivery of a written
notice to the Underwriter's Representative and the Company, that the
Registration be deferred for such period of time as the Initiating Holders,
the Company, and the Underwriter's Representative may mutually agree, but
in no event to exceed 90 days from delivery of the notice requiring such
deferral from the Initiating Holders, or alternatively, to request that the
Registration be terminated in its entirety. In such event, the demand for
Registration shall be considered to have not been made for purposes of
counting the number of demands for Registration permitted under Section
2.1.
(e) Right of Withdrawal in Demand Registration. If any Holder of
Registrable Securities or a holder of other securities entitled (upon
request) to be included in such Registration, disapproves of the terms of
the underwriting, such person may elect to withdraw therefrom by written
notice to the Company, the Underwriter's Representative, and the Initiating
Holders delivered at least seven days prior to the effective date of the
Registration Statement. The securities so withdrawn shall also be withdrawn
from the Registration Statement. If by the withdrawal of such securities a
greater number of Registrable Securities held by other Holders may be
included in such Registration (up to the maximum of any limitation imposed
by the underwriters), then the Company shall offer to all Holders who have
included Registrable Securities in the Registration the right to include
additional Registrable Securities in the same proportion as that used in
determining the proportional inclusion under the underwriter limitation in
Section 2.3(d).
(f) Inclusion of Company's Securities in Demand Registration. If the
Underwriter's Representative has not limited the number of Registrable
Securities or other securities to be underwritten, the Company may include
its securities for its own account in such Registration and underwriting if
the Underwriter's Representative so agrees and if the number of Registrable
Securities and other securities which would otherwise have been included in
such Registration and underwriting will not thereby be
3
limited, and if the Underwriter's Representative advises the Holders in
writing that, in such Representative's opinion, the price of the
Registrable Securities will not be adversely affected thereby.
(g) Blue Sky in Demand Registration. In the event of any Registration
pursuant to Section 2, the Company will exercise its best efforts to
Register and qualify the securities covered by the Registration Statement
under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions (not
exceeding 20 unless otherwise agreed to by the Company) as shall be
reasonably appropriate for the distribution of such securities; provided,
however, that (i) 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, and (ii) notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, if any jurisdiction in which the securities
shall be qualified imposes a non-waivable requirement that expenses
incurred in connection with the qualification of the securities be borne by
selling shareholders, such expenses shall be payable pro rata by selling
shareholders.
2.4. Piggyback Registration.
----------------------------
(a) Notice of Piggyback Registration and Inclusion of Registrable
Securities. In the event the Company decides to Register any of its Common
Stock (other than pursuant to a registration on Form S-4 or S-8 or any
successor forms), for its own account for cash in a firm commitment
underwritten offering on a form that would be suitable for a registration
involving Registrable Securities, the Company shall: (i) promptly, but in
any event within 10 days of such decision, give each Holder written notice
thereof (which shall include a list of the jurisdictions in which the
Company intends to attempt to qualify such securities under the applicable
blue sky or other state securities laws) and (ii) include in such
Registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other
compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable
Securities specified in a written request delivered to the Company by any
Holder within 20 days after delivery of such written notice from the
Company of the proposed Registration.
(b) Underwriting in Piggyback Registration. The right of any Holder to
Registration shall be conditioned upon the agreement of such Holder to
participate in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's
Registrable Securities in such underwriting. All Holders proposing to
distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with
the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through
such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement with the
Underwriter's Representative for such offering. The Holders shall have no
right to participate in the selection of the underwriters for an offering
pursuant to this Section 2.4.
(c) Marketing Limitation in Piggyback Registration. If the Underwriter's
Representative advises the Holders seeking registration of Registrable
Securities pursuant to Section 2.4 in writing that market factors require a
limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the Underwriter's
Representative may (subject to the allocation priority set forth in Section
2.4(d)) limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included therein,
down to complete exclusion.
(d) Allocation of Shares in Piggyback Registration. If the Underwriter's
Representative limits the number of shares to be included in a Registration
pursuant to Section 2.4(c), the number of shares to be included in such
Registration shall be allocated in the following manner: The shares (other
than Registrable Securities) held by holders of securities other than
Registrable Securities requesting and legally entitled to include shares in
such Registration shall be excluded from such registration and underwriting
to the extent required by such limitation, but only if permitted by the
terms of such other registration rights agreement. If a limitation in the
number of shares is still required, the number of
4
shares of Registrable Securities to be included in the Registration and
underwriting shall be excluded pro rata (as between the holders of
Registrable Securities and such other holders of other registration rights)
based on percentage ownership. No Registrable Securities or other
securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of this Section 2.4(d)
shall be included in the Registration Statement.
(e) Withdrawal in Piggyback Registration. If any holder disapproves of the
terms of any such underwriting, he may elect to withdraw therefrom by
written notice to the Company and the underwriter delivered at least seven
days prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement. Any
Registrable Securities or other securities excluded or withdrawn from such
underwriting shall be withdrawn from such Registration. If by the
withdrawal of such securities a greater number of Registrable Securities
may be included in such Registration (up to the maximum of any limitation
imposed by the underwriters), then the Company shall offer to all Holders
who have included Registrable Securities the right to include additional
Registrable Securities in the same proportion used in determining the
proportional inclusion under the underwriter limitation in Section 2.4(d).
(f) Blue Sky in Piggyback Registration. In the event of any Registration of
Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.4, the Company will exercise
its best efforts to Register and qualify the securities covered by the
Registration Statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such
jurisdictions (not exceeding 20 unless otherwise agreed to by the Company)
as shall be reasonably appropriate for the distribution of such securities;
provided, however, that (i) 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, and (ii) notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, in the event any jurisdiction in which the
securities shall be qualified imposes a non-waivable requirement that
expenses incurred in connection with the qualification of the securities be
borne by selling stockholders, such expenses shall be payable pro rata by
selling stockholders.
3. Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection
with all Registrations shall be borne by the Company. Notwithstanding the above,
the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration
proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2 if the registration request is
subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the
Registrable Securities to be registered (which Holders shall bear such
expenses); provided further, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal,
the Holders have learned of a material adverse change in the condition,
business, properties, prospects or financial condition of the Company from that
known to the Holders at the time of their request, then the Holders shall not be
required to pay any of such expenses and shall retain their rights pursuant to
Section 2. All Selling Expenses shall be borne by the holders of the securities
registered pro rata on the basis of the number of shares registered.
4. Registration Procedures. The Company will keep each Holder whose
Registrable Securities are included in any Registration pursuant to this
Agreement advised as to the initiation and completion of such Registration. At
its expense the Company will: (a) use its best efforts to keep such Registration
effective for a period of 90 days or until the Holders have completed the
distribution described in the Registration Statement relating thereto, whichever
first occurs; and (b) furnish such number of prospectuses (including
preliminary, amended or supplemented prospectuses) and other documents as a
Holder from time to time may reasonably request. The Company shall file post-
effective amendments or supplements to such Registration Statement as may be
necessary to comply with applicable federal and state securities laws and
regulations, and shall deliver copies of the prospectus contained therein as
provided above.
5. Information Furnished by Holder. It shall be a condition precedent of the
Company's obligations under this Agreement to a particular Holder that such
Holder of Registrable Securities to be included in any Registration,
5
furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder and the
distribution proposed by such Holder as the Company may reasonably request.
6. Indemnification.
--------------------
6.1. Company's Indemnification of Holders. To the extent permitted by law, the
Company will indemnify each Holder, each of their respective officers, directors
and constituent partners and each person controlling such Holder, with respect
to which Registration, qualification or compliance of Registrable Securities has
been effected pursuant to this Agreement, and each underwriter, if any, and each
person who controls any underwriter, against all claims, losses, damages,
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) to the extent such claims, losses,
damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue
statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any
prospectus, offering circular or other document issued by the Company (including
any related Registration Statement) incident to any such Registration,
qualification or compliance, or are based on any omission (or alleged omission)
to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the Company of
any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act applicable to the
Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection
with any such Registration, qualification or compliance. The Company will also
reimburse each such Holder, officer, director, constituent partner, legal
counsel and underwriter and each person who controls any such Holder or
underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in
connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage,
liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity contained in this
Section 6 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim, loss,
damage, liability or action if settlement is effected without the consent of the
Company (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld); and provided,
further, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that
any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based upon
any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged
omission) of a material fact furnished in a writing to the Company by such
Holder, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is
made in such Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular or other
document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to the Company by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use in
connection with the offering of securities of the Company.
6.2. Holder's Indemnification of Company. To the extent permitted by law, each
Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in the
securities as to which such Registration, qualification or compliance is being
effected pursuant to this Agreement, indemnify the Company, each of its
directors and officers, each legal counsel and independent accountant of the
Company, each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities covered by such a
Registration Statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter
within the meaning of the Securities Act, and each other such Holder, its
officers, directors, constituent partners and legal counsel and each person
controlling such other Holder, against all claims, losses, damages and
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based upon any
untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in
any such Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document
issued by the Company, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, or any violation by such Holder of any rule or
regulation promulgated under the Securities Act applicable to such Holder and
relating to action or inaction required of such Holder in connection with any
such Registration, qualification or compliance; and each Holder will also
reimburse the Company, such Holders, such directors, officers, partners,
persons, law and accounting firms, underwriters and control persons for any
legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in
each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or
alleged untrue
6
statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such Registration
Statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and
in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder
and stated to be specifically for use in connection with the offering of
securities of the Company. The liability of the Holder under this paragraph
shall be limited to the aggregate proceeds received by such Holder from the sale
of Registrable Securities sold under the Registration Statement.
6.3. Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party
under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action, such
indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an
indemnifying party under this Section 6, notify the indemnifying party in
writing of the commencement thereof and generally summarize such action. The
indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in and to assume the
defense of such claim, and shall be entitled to select counsel for the defense
of such claim with the approval of the indemnified parties, which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that the indemnified party may
participate in such defense, and the indemnified parties collectively shall be
entitled to retain a separate counsel for purposes of such action, at the
indemnifying party's expense if a majority in interest of the indemnified
parties conclude in good faith that representation of such indemnified parties
by counsel selected by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to
actual or potential differing interests between such indemnifying party and any
or the indemnified parties. The failure to notify an indemnifying party promptly
of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to the ability of the
indemnifying party to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party
of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 6, but the omission
so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve such party of any liability
that such party may have to any indemnified party other than under this Section
6. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation shall
consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement (i) which does not
include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff
to the indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such
claim or litigation and (ii) except with the consent of each indemnified party,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
6.4. Other Securities. It shall be a condition to the Company's obligations
under this Agreement to include Registrable Securities of a Holder in any
Registration pursuant to this Agreement that such Holder agree to substantially
the indemnification provisions set forth in this Section.
7. Transfer of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register
securities granted by the Company under this Agreement to the Holders may be
assigned by any Holder (a) to any Affiliate of such Holder (as defined in Rule
405 under the Securities Act) or (b) to a transferee or assignee of any
Registrable Securities, not sold to the public, acquiring at least 20% of such
Holder's Registrable Securities; provided, however, that (i) the Company must be
given written notice of said transfer, stating the name and address of said
transferee or assignee and identifying the securities with respect to which such
Registration rights are being assigned, and (ii) the transferee or assignee of
such rights must not be a direct competitor of the Company.
8. Market Stand-off. Purchaser hereby agrees that, if so requested by the
Company and the Underwriter's Representative (if any), Purchaser shall not sell,
make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise
transfer, without the prior written consent of the Company or the Underwriter's
Representative, any securities of the Company (other than those included in the
Registration) during the 120-day period following the effective date of a
Registration Statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act. The
Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to securities subject
to the foregoing restriction.
9. [NOT USED]

10. Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain
rules and regulations of the Commission which may at any time permit the sale of
the Registrable Securities to the public without Registration, the Company
agrees to:
(a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times;
(b) Use its best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all
reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities
Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended;
(c) Furnish to the Holders of Registrable Securities forthwith upon request
a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting
requirements of said Rule 144, and of the Securities Act and the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report
of the Company, and such other reports and documents of the Company as a
Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation
of the Commission allowing such Holder to sell any such securities without
Registration.
11. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
unenforceable, it shall be adjusted rather than voided to achieve its intent to
the maximum extent possible, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement
shall be enforced to the maximum extent possible.
12. Notices. All notices, communications and deliveries under this Agreement
shall be made in writing signed by the party making the same, shall be made
either by personal delivery (including couriers such as Federal Express) or by
registered mail, postage prepaid, or facsimile transmission and shall be deemed
to give delivery on the date delivered if delivered in person or by facsimile or

or transfer, in whole or in part, by a Holder of his rights under this Agreement

the subject matter hereof, and constitutes the entire agreement among the
parties with respect such subject matter. This Agreement may not be altered or
amended except in writing signed by the Company and by the holders of not less
than 66-2/3% of the then outstanding Registrable Securities. The failure of any
party hereto at any time to require performance of any provision of this
Agreement shall in no manner be deemed a waiver of the right to require
performance of the same in the future.

each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which taken together
shall constitute one and the same document. Facsimile transmission of a
