(a) At any time after the earlier of (i) 180 days after any
Registration Statement covering a public offering of securities of the
Company under the Securities Act having become effective and (ii) June
30, 2002, the Holder or Holders of at least twenty-five (25%) percent
of all Registrable Stock then outstanding (the "Initiating Holders")
may by notice in writing to the Company request the Company to register
under the Securities Act all or any portion of shares of Registrable
Stock held by such Initiating Holder or Holders for sale in the manner
specified in such notice, provided, that, (i) at least fifteen (15%)
percent of the total amount of Registrable Stock shall be included in
the Public Offering or (ii) the reasonably anticipated aggregate price
to the public of such lesser number of shares of Registrable Stock and
Founder Registrable Stock to be included in such public offering shall
exceed $10,000,000. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the Company shall not be required to seek to cause a
Registration Statement to become effective pursuant to this Section 2:
(A) within a period of 90 days after the effective date of a
Registration Statement 180 days if the Registration Statement is for
the Initial Public Offering) filed by the Company (other than a
Registration Statement on Forms X-0, X-0 or any successors thereto),
provided that the Company shall use its best efforts to cause a
registration requested hereunder to be declared effective promptly
following such period if such request is made during such period; (B)
if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the
President of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the
Board of Directors it would be materially detrimental to the Company or
its shareholders for a Registration Statement to be filed at such time,
or that it would require disclosure of material non-public information
relating to the Company which, in the reasonable opinion of the Board
of Directors, should not be disclosed, then the Company's obligation to
use all reasonable efforts to register, qualify or comply under this
Section 2 shall be deferred for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days
from the date of receipt of written request from such Holders;
provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this deferral right
more than once in any twelve-month period.
(b) Following receipt of any notice given under this Section 2
by the Initiating Holders, the Company shall immediately notify in
writing all Holders that such registration is to be effected and shall
use its best efforts to register under the Securities
-3-
4
Act, for public sale in accordance with the method of disposition
specified in such notice from requesting Holders, the number of shares
of Registrable Stock and Founder Registrable Stock, specified in such
notice (and in all notices received by the Company pursuant hereto).
Holders, other than the Initiating Holders, shall notify the Company of
their desire to participate in the Registration within twenty (20) days
of the Company's notice to them. The Holders of a majority of the
shares of Registrable Stock to be sold in such offering may designate
the managing underwriter of such offering, subject to the approval of
the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. The Company shall be obligated to register Registrable Stock
and Founder Registrable Stock pursuant to this Section 2 on two
occasions only, provided, however, that such obligation shall be deemed
satisfied only when a Registration Statement covering all shares of
Registrable Stock, specified in notices received as aforesaid and which
have not been withdrawn by the Holder thereof, for sale in accordance
with the method of disposition specified by the Initiating Holders,
shall have become effective. A registration which does not become
effective after the Company has filed a Registration Statement with
respect thereto solely by reason of the refusal of the Initiating
Holders to proceed shall be deemed to have been effected by the Company
at the request of such Initiating Holders unless such requesting
Holders shall have elected to pay all the Company's reasonable expenses
in connection with such registration.
(c) If the Registration Statement is to cover an underwritten
distribution and in the good faith judgment of the managing underwriter
of such public offering the inclusion of all of the Registrable Stock
and Founder Registrable Stock, requested for inclusion pursuant to this
Section 2 would interfere with the successful marketing of a smaller
number of shares to be offered, then the number of shares of
Registrable Stock and Founder Registrable Stock to be included in the
Offering shall be reduced to the required level with the participation
in such offering to be reduced pro rata among the Holders requesting
such registration, based upon the number of shares of Registrable Stock
and Founder Registrable Stock owned by such Holders. The Company shall
be entitled to include in any Registration Statement referred to in
this Section 2, for sale in accordance with the method of disposition
specified by the Initiating Holders, shares of Common Stock for the
Company's own account, except as and to the extent that, in the opinion
of the managing underwriter, if any, such inclusion would adversely
affect the marketing of the Registrable Stock and Founder Registrable
Stock to be sold. Except for registration statements on Form X-0, X-0
or any successors thereto, the Company will not file with the
Commission any other registration statement with respect to its Common
Stock, whether for its own account or that of other stockholders, from
the date of receipt of a notice from the Initiating Holders pursuant to
this Section 2 until the completion of the period of distribution of
the registration contemplated thereby.
(d) So long as the Founder is the Chief Executive Officer or a
director of the Company, Holders of Founder Registrable Stock shall not
sell in the aggregate more than 675,000 shares of Common Stock (which
amount shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock splits, stock
dividends, recapitalizations or other changes affecting the Common
Stock after the date of this Agreement) in any registration under this
Section 2 or Section 4 hereof.
-4-

3. Incidental Registration. Each time the Company shall determine to
file a Registration Statement in connection with the proposed offer and sale for
money of any of its securities by it or any of its security holders, the Company
will give written notice thereof to all Holders. Upon the written request of one
or more Holder(s) given within twenty (20) days after the giving of any such
notice by the Company, the Company will use its best efforts to cause all such
shares of Registrable Stock and Founder Registrable Stock, the Holders of which
have so requested registration thereof, to be included in such Registration
Statement, all to the extent requisite to permit the sale or other disposition
by the prospective seller or sellers of the Registrable Stock and Founder
Registrable Stock to be so registered. If the Registration Statement is to cover
an underwritten distribution, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause
the Registrable Stock and Founder Registrable Stock requested for inclusion
pursuant to this Section 3 to be included in the underwriting on the same terms
and conditions as the securities otherwise being sold through the underwriters.
If, in the good faith judgment of the managing underwriter of such public
offering, the inclusion of all of the Registrable Stock and Founder Registrable
Stock requested for inclusion pursuant to this Section 3 would interfere with
the successful marketing of a smaller number of shares to be offered, then the
number of shares of Registrable Stock, Founder Registrable Stock and other
securities to be included in the offering (except for shares to be issued (i) by
the Company in an offering initiated by the Company or (ii) by any other party
in an offering initiated by such party pursuant to registration rights granted
to such party) shall be reduced to the required level by reducing (down to zero
if so required) the participation of the Holders in such offering (such
reduction to be pro rata among the Holders requesting such registration, based
upon the number of shares of Registrable Stock owned by such Holders); provided,
however, that (i) except in the Company's Initial Public Offering, in no event
shall the participation of the Holders of Registrable Stock and Founder
Registrable Stock be less than thirty-five (35%) percent of such offering, (ii)
so long as the Founder is either the Chief Executive Officer or a director of
the Company, in no event shall the Holders of the Founder Registrable Stock sell
in the aggregate more than 675,000 shares of Common Stock (which amount shall be
appropriately adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalization
or other changes affecting the Common Stock after the date of this Agreement) in
any single distribution and (iii) all shares that are not Registrable Stock or
Founder Registrable Stock and are held by any other person, including, without
limitation, any person who is an employee, officer or director of the Company or
any subsidiary of the Company (other than the Founder) shall first be excluded
from such registration and underwriting before any Registrable Stock or Founder
Registrable Stock are so excluded.
4. Registration on Form S-3. If at any time after the date hereof (i) a
Holder or Holders request that the Company file a registration statement on Form
S-3 or any successor thereto for a public offering of all or any portion of the
shares of Registrable Stock held by such requesting Holder or Holders, the
reasonably anticipated aggregate proceeds of which would exceed $1,000,000, and
(ii) the Company is a registrant entitled to use Form S-3 or any successor
thereto to register such shares, then the Company shall use its best efforts to
register under the Securities Act on Form S-3 or any successor thereto, for
public sale in accordance with the method of disposition specified in such
notice, the number of shares of Registrable Stock and Founder Registrable Stock
specified in such notice. Whenever the Company is required by this Section 4 to
use its best efforts to effect the registration of Registrable Stock and Founder
Registrable Stock, each of the procedures, requirements and limitations of
Section 2 (including
-5-
6
but not limited to the requirement that the Company notify all Holders from whom
notice has not been received and provide them with the opportunity to
participate in the offering and the requirement of subparagraph (b)) shall apply
to such registration; provided, however, that there shall be no limitation on
the number of registrations on Form S-3 which may be requested and obtained
under this Section 4; and provided, further, however, that the $10,000,000
minimum dollar amount set forth in the first sentence of Section 2(a) shall not
apply to any registration on Form S-3 which may be requested and obtained under
this Section 4.
5. Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required by
the provisions of Section 2, 3 or 4 hereof to effect the registration of shares
of Registrable Stock or Founder Registrable Stock under the Securities Act, the
Company will, at its expense, as expeditiously as possible:
(a) In accordance with the Securities Act and the rules and
regulations of the Commission, prepare and file with the Commission a

-8-
9
any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder, and
any Person who controls such Holder or such underwriter within the
meaning of the Securities Act, and each of their successors, from and
against, and will reimburse such Holder and each such underwriter and
controlling Person with respect to, any and all claims, actions,
demands, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses to which such
Holder or any such underwriter or controlling Person may become subject
under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such claims, actions,
demands, losses, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses arise out of
or are based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement of
any material fact contained in such Registration Statement, any
prospectus contained therein or any amendment or supplement thereto, 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 or arise out of
any violation by the Company of any rule or regulation under the
Securities Act applicable to the Company and relating to action or
inaction required of the Company in connection with such registration;
provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case
to the extent that any such claim, action, demand, loss, damage,
liability, cost or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission
so made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished
by or on behalf of any such Holder, such underwriter or controlling
Person in writing specifically for use in the preparation thereof, and
provided, further, that this indemnity shall not be deemed to relieve
any underwriter of any of its due diligence obligations; and provided,
further, that if any claim, action, demand, loss, damage, liability,
cost or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission contained in
any preliminary prospectus which did not appear in the final prospectus
and if the Holder delivered a copy of the preliminary prospectus to the
person alleging damage and failed to deliver a copy of the final
prospectus to such persons, the Company shall not be liable with
respect to the claims of such person.
(b) Each Holder of shares of Registrable Stock which are
included in a Registration pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement
will, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the
Company from and against, and will reimburse the Company with respect
to, any and all losses, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses to
which the Company may become subject under the Securities Act or
otherwise, to the extent that any such loss, damage, liability, cost or
expense arises out of or is based upon any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of any material fact contained therein or any amendment or
supplement thereto, or arises out of or is based upon 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, in
each case to the extent, but only to the extent that such untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission
was so made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished by or on behalf of such Holder for use in the preparation
thereof, provided, that, the liability of each Holder hereunder shall
not, in any event. exceed the proceeds received by such Holder from the
sale of shares of Registrable Stock covered by a Registration
Statement; and provided, further, that this indemnity shall not be
deemed to relieve any underwriter of any of its due diligence
obligations.
-9-
10
(c) Promptly after receipt by a party to be indemnified
pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 7
(an "indemnified party") of actual knowledge or notice of the
commencement of any action involving the subject matter of the
foregoing indemnity provisions, such indemnified party will, if a claim
thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party pursuant to the
provisions of paragraph (a) or (b), notify the indemnifying party of
the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the
indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may
have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 7 and
shall not relieve the indemnifying party from liability under this
Section 7 unless such indemnifying party is prejudiced by such
omission. In case such action is brought against any indemnified party
and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the
indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the
extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice
from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election
so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be
liable to such indemnified party pursuant to the provisions of such
paragraph (a) and (b) for any legal or other expense subsequently
incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense
thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying
party shall be liable to an indemnified party for any settlement of any
action or claim without the consent of the indemnifying party; no
indemnifying party may unreasonably withhold its consent to any such
settlement. No indemnifying party will consent to entry of any judgment
or enter into any settlement which 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 to such
claim or litigation.
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to
joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either
(i) any Holder exercising rights under this Agreement, or any
controlling person of any such Holder, makes a claim for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 7 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 7
provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under
the Securities Act may be required on the part of any such selling
Holder or any such controlling person in circumstances for which
indemnification is provided under this Section 7; then, and in each
such case, the Company and such Holder will contribute to the aggregate
losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject
(after contribution from others) in such proportion as is appropriate
to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand
and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the
violation(s) that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, as
well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault
of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be
determined by a court of law by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or
the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied
by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
-10-
11
opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided,
however, that, in any such case; (A) no such Holder will be required to
contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price, less
underwriting discounts and commissions, of all such Registrable Stock
offered and sold by such Holder pursuant to such registration
statement; and (B) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or
entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
(e) Survival. The obligations of the Company and Holders under
this Section 7 shall survive until the fifth anniversary of the
completion of any offering of Registrable Stock in a registration
statement, regardless of the expiration of any statutes of limitation
or extensions of such statutes.
8. Reporting Requirements Under Securities Exchange Act of 1934. When
it is first legally required to do so, the Company shall register its Common
Stock under Section 12 of the Exchange Act and shall keep effective such
registration and shall timely file such information, documents and reports as
the Commission may require or prescribe under Section 13 of the Exchange Act.
From and after the effective date of the first Registration Statement filed by
the Company, the Company shall use its best efforts to (whether or not it shall
then be required to do so) timely file such information, documents and reports
as the Commission may require or prescribe under Section 13 or 15(d) (whichever
is applicable) of the Exchange Act. Immediately upon becoming subject to the
reporting requirements of either Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the
Company shall forthwith upon request furnish any Holder (i) a written statement
by the Company that it has complied with such reporting requirements, (ii) a
copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and (iii)
such other reports and documents filed by the Company with the Commission as
such Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of an exemption for the
sale of Registrable Stock without registration under the Securities Act. The
Company acknowledges and agrees that the purposes of the requirements contained
in this Section 8 are (a) to enable any such Holder to comply with the current
public information requirement contained in Paragraph (c) of Rule 144 under the
Securities Act should such Holder ever wish to dispose of any of the securities
of the Company acquired by it without registration under the Securities Act in
reliance upon Rule 144 (or any other similar or successor exemptive provision),
and (b) to qualify the Company for the use of Registration Statements on Form
S-3. In addition, the Company shall take such other measures and file such other
information, documents and reports, as shall hereafter be required by the
Commission as a condition to the availability of Rule 144 under the Securities
Act (or any similar or successor exemptive provision hereafter in effect) and
the use of Form S-3. The Company also covenants to use its best efforts, to the
extent that it is reasonably within its power to do so, to qualify for the use
of Form S-3. From and after the effective date of the first Registration
Statement filed by the Company, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to
facilitate and expedite transfers of Registrable Stock pursuant to Rule 144
under the Securities Act (or any similar or successor exemptive provision
hereafter in effect), which efforts shall include timely notice to its transfer
agent to expedite such transfers of Registrable Stock.
9. Stockholder Information. The Company may require each Holder of
Registrable Stock as to which any registration is to be effected pursuant to
this Agreement to furnish the Company in a timely manner such information with
respect to such Holder and the distribution
-11-
12
of such Registrable Stock as the Company may from time to time reasonably
request in writing and as shall be required by law or by the Commission in
connection therewith.
10. Lock-Up Agreements.
(a) Restrictions on Public Sale by the Company. The Company
agrees not to effect any public sale or other distribution of its
equity securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable
or exercisable for such equity securities, during the period, not to
exceed one hundred eighty (180) days (as requested by the managing
underwriter), following the effective date of the Initial Public
Offering, or ninety (90) days following the effective date of any other
underwritten public offering of securities of the Company, except in
connection with any such underwritten offering and except for equity
securities issued pursuant to employee stock option or employee stock
purchase plans or in conjunction with any merger or consolidation with,
or acquisition of the stock or assets of, any other entity.
(b) Restrictions on Public Sale by the Holders. Each Holder
agrees that it will not, to the extent requested by the Company and the
managing underwriter of such offering, sell or otherwise dispose of any
equity securities of the Company, including any sale pursuant to Rule
144, during a period specified by the Company and such underwriter (not
to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of the
Initial Public Offering or ninety (90) days after any other
underwritten offering), except in conjunction with such underwritten
offering; provided, that, each officer and director of the Company
shall enter into similar agreements.
11. Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder

(60%) percent of the shares of Registrable Stock, which approval may require
that such rights be granted only pursuant to an amendment or restatement of this
Agreement.
15. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
shall inure to the benefit of the respective legal representatives, successors
and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, that the registration
rights conferred herein shall only inure to the benefit of a transferee of
