Registration Statement on Form F-1 ("Registration Statement"), or on such other
registration form under the Securities Act as the Company shall deem
appropriate, covering the sale by the Holders on a continuous or delayed basis
pursuant to Rule 415 thereunder (or any similar rule that may be adopted by the
SEC) of (i) the Conversion Shares and (ii) the Warrant Shares. The Company

declared effective by the SEC within 150 days after the Closing Date (the

Statement is suspended or terminated at any time after its Effectiveness
Deadline and prior to the Registration Termination Date, then for each month (or
portion thereof) such Registration Statement is not so effective, the Company
shall pay to the Holders, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount
equal to the product of $21,000,000 (being the total purchase price of the
Securities) and the Applicable Rate. The Company shall pay such liquidated
damages to each Holder based upon the proportion of the Registerable Securities
owned by such Holder. Such payments shall be made on the first Business Day of
each month following any month in which such Registration Statement is not
effective, with a final payment within five (5) Business Days after such
Registration Statement becomes effective.
3. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.
(a) Company Procedures. In connection with the Company's registration
obligations pursuant to Section 2, the Company shall keep each Registration

thereof specified in such Registration Statement or in the related
prospectus(es), and shall:
(i) comply with such provisions of the Securities Act as may be

therein by reference untrue or that requires the making of any changes in
such Registration Statement, prospectus or any document incorporated
therein by reference in order that such documents not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, and (F) of the Company's determination that a further post-
effective amendment to such Registration Statement would be appropriate;
(iii) furnish to each Holder, without charge, as many conformed
copies as may reasonably be requested by such Holder, of each Registration
Statement and any further post-effective amendments thereto, including
financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by
reference and all exhibits (including those incorporated by reference);
(iv) deliver to each Holder, without charge, as many copies of the
then effective prospectus covering such Registrable Securities and any
amendments or supplements thereto as such Holder may reasonably request;
(v) register, qualify, obtain an exemption therefrom, or cooperate
with the Holders and their
5
counsel in connection with the registration or qualification or exemption
therefrom of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the
securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as may be reasonably
requested in writing by the Holders and do any and all other acts or things
necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of
the Registrable Securities covered by the then effective Registration
Statements; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to

any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, (B) qualify as a dealer
(or other similar entity) in securities, (C) otherwise subject itself to
taxation in connection with such activities, or (D) take any action which
would subject it to general service of process in any jurisdiction where it
is not then so subject;
(vi) upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by clauses (E)
or (F) of paragraph (ii) above, promptly prepare and file, if necessary, a
further post-effective amendment to each Registration Statement or a
supplement to the related prospectuses or any document incorporated therein
by reference or file any other required document so that each Registration
Statement and the related prospectuses will not thereafter contain an
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;
(vii) in no event later than five (5) Business Days before filing
any Registration Statement, any further post-effective amendment thereto,
any prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto (other than any
amendment or supplement made solely as a result of incorporation by
reference of documents), furnish to the Holders copies of all such
documents proposed to be filed;
(viii) not file any Registration Statement or amendment thereto or
any prospectus or any supplement thereto (other than any amendment or
supplement made solely as a result of incorporation by reference of
documents) to which the Holders holding a majority of the Registrable
Securities shall have reasonably
6
objected in writing, within three (3) Business Days after receipt of such
documents, to the effect that such Registration Statement or amendment
thereto or prospectus or supplement thereto does not comply in all material
respects with the requirements of the Securities Act (including, without
limitation respect of any information describing the manner in which the
Holders acquired such Registrable Securities and the intended method or
methods of distribution of such Registrable Securities), (provided that the
foregoing shall not limit the right of any Holder reasonably to object,
within three (3) Business Days after receipt of such documents, to any
particular information relating specifically to such Holder that is to be
contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus or supplement including
without limitation, any information describing the manner in which such
Holder acquired such Registrable Securities and the intended method or
methods of distribution of such Registrable Securities), and if the Company
is unable to file any such document due to the objections of the Holders,
the Company shall exert commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with
the Holders to prepare, as soon as practicable, a document that is
responsive in all material respects to the reasonable objections of the
Holders, provided however, that the Effectiveness Deadline (as defined in
Section 2(b)) shall be extended by the period, during which the Company is
prevented from filing a Registration Statement or amendment thereto by
reason of this paragraph 3(a)(viii);
(ix) promptly after the filing of any document that is to be
incorporated by reference into any Registration Statement or prospectus,
provide copies of such document to the Holder;
(x) cause all Registrable Securities covered by each Registration
Statement to be listed on the Nasdaq National Market, American Stock

if the Common Stock securities of the Company are not listed thereon, on
the primary exchanges, markets, or inter-dealer quotations systems
(including NASDAQ) if any, on which similar securities issued by the
Company are then listed, prior to the date on which such Registrable
Securities were issued;
7
(xi) take all actions reasonably required to prevent the entry of
any stop order by the Securities and Exchange Commission or by any state
securities regulators or to remove any such order if entered; and

Registrable Securities covered thereby to be made by Permitted Transferees
of the Holders.
(b) Holder Procedures.

such information regarding such Holder and the proposed distribution of
such Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably
request in writing and which is necessary for compliance with applicable
law.
(ii) Each Holder agrees to cooperate with the Company in all
reasonable respects in connection with the preparation and filing of the
Registration Statement, any Amendment, any prospectus and any prospectus

Holder, the Company will furnish to such Holder(s):
(i) as soon as practicable after it becomes available (but in the
case of the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders, within 140 days after

however, the Registration Expenses shall not include any sales or underwriting
discounts, commissions or fees attributable to the sale of the Registrable
Securities or the fees and expenses of counsel to the Holders (other than to the
extent provided in the Subscription Agreement).
5. INDEMNIFICATION; CONTRIBUTION.
(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify and hold
harmless, to the full extent permitted by law, each Holder, and such Holder's
respective officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents and
controlling persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act), against all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, but in no event greater than
the gross purchase price Holder paid to the Company for Registrable Securities,
resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in any Registration Statement, any
9
prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged
omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading, except in each case insofar as the same
directly arises out of or is directly based upon an untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or an omission or alleged omission to state
a material fact in such Registration Statement, prospectus, amendment or
supplement, as the case may be, made or omitted, as the case may be, in reliance
upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by
such Holder expressly for use therein.
(b) Indemnification by the Holders. Each Holder shall indemnify and hold
harmless, to the full extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers,
directors, employees, representatives, agents and controlling persons (within
the meaning of the Securities Act), against all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable costs of
investigation and legal expenses) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any
prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and any omission or alleged
omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading, to the extent the same directly result
from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or any
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in such Registration
Statement, prospectus, amendment or supplement, as the case may be, made or
omitted, as the case may be, in reliance upon and in conformity with information
furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein.
The liability of each Holder under the indemnity and contributions provisions of
this Section 5 shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to an amount
equal to the gross price of the Registrable Securities sold by such Holder
pursuant to the Registration Statement.
(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Each party entitled to
indemnification under this Section 5 (the "Indemnified Party") shall give
written notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the
"Indemnifying Party") promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge
of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the
Indemnifying Party to assume the
10
defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided, that
counsel for the Indemnifying Party who will conduct the defense of such claim or
litigation, is approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval will not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed); and provided, further, that the failure of
any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party of its obligations except to the extent that its defense of
the claim or litigation involved is prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnified
Party may participate in such defense at such party's expense; provided,
however, that the Indemnifying Party shall pay such expense if representation of
such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would
be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interest between the
Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such
proceeding. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or
litigation, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, shall consent to
entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an
unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such
Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of any claim or
litigation, and no Indemnified Party will consent to entry of any judgment or
settle any claim or litigation without the prior written consent of the
Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Each
Indemnified Party shall furnish such information regarding himself, herself or
itself and the claim in question as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably
request and as shall be reasonably required in connection with the defense of
such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.
(d) Contribution.
(i) If for any reason the indemnification provided for in this
Section 5 from an Indemnifying Party, although otherwise applicable by its
terms, is unavailable to an Indemnified Party hereunder, then the
Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Parties as a
result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such
Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Parties in connection with the
actions that
11
resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well
as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such
Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Parties shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including
any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, has been made
by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or the
Indemnified Parties, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount
paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include,
subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5(c), any legal or other
fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any
investigation or proceeding.
(ii) The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by
pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take
account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately
preceding paragraph. 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.
6. RULE 144 REQUIREMENTS.
The Company agrees to:
(a) use its best efforts to make and keep public information available, as
those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act;
(b) use its best efforts to file with the SEC in a timely manner all
reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and
the Securities Exchange Act; and
(c) furnish to each Holder upon request a written statement by the Company
as to its compliance with the
12
reporting requirements of said Rule 144 and of the Securities Act and the
Securities Exchange Act.
7. INJUNCTIONS.
Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that one or more of the
parties would be damaged irreparably in the event the provisions of this
Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise
are breached. Accordingly, each of the parties agrees that the other party
shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the
provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court of the United States or
any state thereof having jurisdiction over the parties in the matter, in
addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity.
