2.

Incidental or "Piggyback" Registration.

If (but without any obligation to do so) the Corporation proposes to register (including for this purpose a registration effected by the Corporation for shareholders other than the Holders) any of its Common Stock or other securities under the Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than a registration relating to the sale of securities to participants in a Corporation stock option, stock purchase or similar plan, or a registration on any form which does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registerable Securities), the Corporation shall, at that time, promptly give each Holder written notice of such registration. Upon the written request of each Holder given within 10 days after mailing of such notice by the Corporation in accordance with the terms hereof, the Corporation shall, subject to the provisions of Section 6, cause to be registered under the Act all of the Registerable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be registered.

3.

Obligations of the Corporation.

Whenever required under this Agreement to effect the registration of any Registerable Securities, the Corporation shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

(a) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registerable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registerable Securities registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for up to 180 days.

(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 provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement.

(c) Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registerable Securities owned by them.

(d) Use its best 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 Holders, provided that the Corporation shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions.

(e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement.

(f) Notify each Holder of Registerable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included 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 the light of the circumstances then existing.

(g) Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting registration of Registerable Securities pursuant to this Agreement, on the date that such Registerable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale in connection with a registration pursuant to this Agreement, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, or, if such securities are not being sold through underwriters, on the date that the registration statement with respect to such securities becomes effective: (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the counsel representing the Corporation for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of Registerable Securities, and (ii) a letter dated such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Corporation, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holder requesting registration of Registerable Securities.

4.

Furnish Information.

It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Corporation to take any action pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registerable Securities of any selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Corporation such information regarding itself, the Registerable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the registration of such Holder's Registerable Securities.

5.

Expenses of Incidental or "Piggyback" Registration.

The Corporation shall bear and pay all expenses incurred in connection with any registration, filing or qualification of Registerable Securities with respect to the registrations pursuant to Section 2 for each Holder (which right may be assigned as provided in Section 11), including without limitation all registration, filing, and qualification fees, printers and accounting fees relating or apportionable thereto and the fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holders selected by them, but excluding underwriting discounts and commissions relating to Registerable Securities.

6.

Underwriting Requirements.

In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares being issued by the Corporation, the Corporation shall not be required under Section 2 to include any of the Holders' securities in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Corporation and the underwriters selected by it, and then only in such quantity as will not, in the opinion of the underwriters, jeopardize the success of the offering by the Corporation. If the total amount of securities, including Registerable Securities, requested by Holders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by the Corporation that the underwriters reasonably believe compatible with the success of the offering, then the Corporation shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Registerable Securities, which the underwriters believe will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the securities so included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling Holders according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each selling Holder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by such selling Holders) but in no event shall: (i) the amount of securities of the selling Holders included in the offering be reduced below 50% of the total amount of securities included in such offering, unless such offering is the initial public offering of the Corporation's securities, in which case the selling Holders may be excluded if the underwriters make the determination described above and no other Holder's securities are included. For purposes of the preceding parenthetical concerning apportionment, for any selling Holder which is a partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners and shareholders of such Holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners 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 amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such "selling Holder," as defined in this sentence.

7.

Delay of Registration.

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

8.

Indemnification.

In the event any Registerable Securities are included in a registration statement under this Agreement:

(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Corporation will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, any underwriters (as defined in the Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriters within the meaning of the Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Act, the 1934 Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively Violation): (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) 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, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Corporation of the Act, the 1934 Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the act, the 1934 Act or any state securities law; and the Corporation will pay as incurred to each such Holder, underwriter or controlling person, 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 indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 8(a) 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 Corporation (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Corporation 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 Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by any such Holder, underwriter or controlling person.

(b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Corporation, each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who controls the Corporation within the meaning of the Act, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in such registration statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or other Holder, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Act, the 1934 Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any 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 Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will pay, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this subsection 8(b), in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 8(b) 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 Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that in no event shall any indemnity under this subsection 8(b) exceed the gross proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 10, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own 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 proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 10, but the omission so to deliver written 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 10.

(d) The obligations of the Corporation and Holders under this Section 10 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registerable Securities in a registration statement under this Agreement, and otherwise.

9.
