shares of Registrable Stock, at any time more than six (6) months after the
effective date of the Company's Initial Public Offering, a written request that
the Company effect a Registration covering the Registrable Stock, the Company
shall as soon as practicable effect Registration of the Registrable Stock

---------------------------------
to Holders a certificate signed by the President or Chief Executive Officer of
the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors
of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company for any
Registration to be effected as requested under Section 2.1, the Company shall
have the right, exercisable one time only, to defer the filing of a Registration
Statement with respect to such offering for a period of not more than one
hundred twenty (120) days from delivery of the request of Holders; provided,
--------
however, that the two-year period referred to in Section 2.1(i) above shall be
extended by the period of time for which the filing of a Registration Statement
is deferred pursuant to this Section 2.2.
2.3 Registration of Other Securities in Demand Registration. Any
-------------------------------------------------------
Registration Statement filed pursuant to the request of Holders under this
Section 2 may, subject to the provisions of Section 2.4, include securities of
the Company other than Registrable Stock, such determination to be made in the
sole discretion of the Company.
2.4 Underwriting in Demand Registration.
-----------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------
Company, officers or directors of the Company holding Common Stock other than
Registrable Stock or holders of securities with registration rights other than
Registrable Stock (collectively, the "SECONDARY HOLDERS"), request inclusion in
such Registration, Holders shall offer to any or all of the Secondary Holders
that such securities other than Registrable Stock be included in the
underwriting, and may condition such offer on the acceptance by such Secondary
Holders of the terms of this Section 2.
2.4.3 Selection of Underwriter in Demand Registration. If
-----------------------------------------------
Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Stock by means of an underwriting,
the Company shall (together with Holders and all Secondary 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 of national reputation selected for such
underwriting by the Company, subject to reasonable approval by the Holders.
2.4.4 Marketing Limitation in Demand Registration. In the event
-------------------------------------------
the Underwriter's Representative advises Holders in writing that market factors
(including, without limitation, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock
requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market, and the status
of the persons proposing to sell securities pursuant to the Registration)
require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then (i) first
the securities held by Secondary Holders other than the Company, (ii) second the
securities requested to be registered by the Company, and (iii) third the
Registrable Stock, shall be excluded from such Registration to the extent
required by such limitation. No Registrable Stock or other securities excluded
from the underwriting by reason of this Section 2.4.4 shall be included in such
Registration Statement.
-3-
2.4.5 Right of Withdrawal in Demand Registration. If Holders or
------------------------------------------
any Secondary Holder requesting inclusion 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 and Holders delivered at least
seven (7) days prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement. The
securities so withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from the Registration Statement.
If Holders elect to withdraw from a Registration initiated upon a request under
Section 2.1, such attempted Registration shall satisfy the Company's
registration obligations as provided in Section 2.1, unless (a) Holders'
withdrawal is based upon material adverse information concerning the Company of
which the Holders were not aware at the time the Holders requested a
registration pursuant to this Section 2, or (b) the Company otherwise consents
to such withdrawal.
2.5 Blue Sky in Demand Registration. In the event of any Registration
-------------------------------
pursuant to Section 2, the Company will Register and qualify the securities
covered by the Registration Statement under such other securities or Blue Sky
laws of such jurisdictions 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 shareholders, at the election of the Holders, either the
Company shall withdraw qualification of the securities in such jurisdiction or
such expenses shall be payable pro rata by selling shareholders.
3. Piggyback Registration.
----------------------
3.1 Notice of Piggyback Registration and Inclusion of Registrable
-------------------------------------------------------------
Securities. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, in the event the Company
----------
decides to Register any of its Common Stock (either for its own account or the
account of a security holder or holders exercising their respective demand
registration rights) after the Company's Initial Public Offering on a form that
would be suitable for a registration involving Registrable Stock, the Company
will: (i) give Holders written notice thereof at least twenty (20) days prior to
the filing of a Registration Statement (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 Stock
as specified in a written request delivered to the Company by Holders within
fifteen (15) days after delivery of such written notice from the Company. If the
Holders decide not to include all of their Registrable Stock in any Registration
Statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless
continue to have the right to include any Registrable Stock in any subsequent
such Registration Statement or Registration Statements as may be filed by the
Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and
conditions set forth herein.
-4-
3.2 Underwriting in Piggyback Registration.
--------------------------------------
3.2.1 Notice of Underwriting in Piggyback Registration. If the
------------------------------------------------
Registration of which the Company gives notice is for a Registered public
offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise Holders as a
part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 3.1. In such event the
right of Holders to Registration shall be conditioned upon such underwriting and
the inclusion of Holder's Registrable Stock in such underwriting to the extent
provided in this Section 3. Holders, if proposing to distribute Registrable
Stock through such underwriting, shall (together with the Company and any other
security holders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter
into an underwriting agreement with the Underwriter's Representative for such
offering. Holders shall have no right to participate in the selection of the
underwriters for an offering pursuant to this Section 3.
3.2.2 Marketing Limitation in Piggyback Registration. In the
----------------------------------------------
event the Underwriter's Representative advises Holders in writing that market
factors (including, without limi tation, the aggregate number of shares of
Common Stock requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market,
and the status of the persons proposing to sell securities pursuant to the Regis
tration) require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the
Underwriter's Representative (subject to the allocation priority set forth in
Section 3.2.3) may exclude some or all Registrable Stock from such registration
and underwriting.
3.2.3 Allocation of Shares in Piggyback Registration. In the
----------------------------------------------
event that the Underwriter's Representative limits the number of shares to be
included in a Registration pursuant to Section 3.2.2, the holders of securities
with registration rights who have requested Registration, including Holders
shall participate in such Registration pro rata based upon such holder's total
ownership of shares of Common Stock (giving effect to the conversion into Common
Stock of all securities convertible there into). No Registrable Stock excluded
from the underwriting by reason of this Section 3.2.3 shall be included in the
Registration Statement.
3.2.4 Withdrawal in Piggyback Registration. If Holder
------------------------------------
disapprove of the terms of any such underwriting, Holders may elect to withdraw
therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter delivered at
least seven (7) days prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement.
Any Registrable Stock excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be
withdrawn from such Registration.
3.3 Blue Sky in Piggyback Registration. In the event of any
----------------------------------
Registration of Registrable Stock pursuant to Section 3, the Company will
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 shareholders, such expenses shall be payable pro rata by
selling shareholders.
-5-
4. Form S-3 Registration. In case the Company shall receive from Holders
---------------------
of more than a majority of the shares of Registrable Stock a written request
that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3 or any similar short-form
registration statement and any related qualification or compliance with respect
to all or a part of the Registrable Stock owned by Holders, the Company will:
4.1 promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and
any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders of Registrable
Stock; and
4.2 as soon as practicable, effect such registration and all such
qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or
facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of Holders'
Registrable Stock as are specified in such request, together with all or such
portion of the Registrable Stock of any other Holder or Holders joining in such
request as are specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days
after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however, that
the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration,
qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 4:
(i) if Form S-3 (or any successor or similar form) is not
available for such offering by the Holders, or
(ii) if the Holders, together with the holders of any other
securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to
sell Registrable Stock and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price
to the public of less than $500,000, or
(iii) if the Company has already effected two (2)
registrations on Form S-3 for the Holders pursuant to this Section 4, or
(iv) subject to the provisions of Section 9 hereof, at any
time after the five year period following the effective date of the Company's
Initial Public Offering, or
(v) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company
would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to
service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance.
4.3 Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a Form S-3
registration statement covering the Registrable Stock and other securities so
requested to be registered as soon as practicable after receipt of the request
or requests of the Holders.
5. Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in
------------------------
connection with the one Registration pursuant to Section 2 and any Registrations
pursuant to Sections 3 and 4, shall be borne by the Company. All Registration
Expenses incurred in connection with any other registration, qualification or
compliance shall be apportioned among Holders and other holders of the
securities so registered on the basis of the number of shares so registered.
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 Holders, unless
(a) Holders agree to forfeit their right to demand registration pursuant to
Section 2, or (b) the withdrawal is based upon material adverse information
concerning the Company of which Holders were not aware at the time of
-6-
such request. All Selling Expenses shall be borne by the holders of the
securities registered pro rata on the basis of the number of shares registered.
6. Registration Procedures. The Company will keep Holders advised as to
-----------------------
the initiation and completion of any registration pursuant to this Agreement in
which any Registrable Stock is included. At its expense the Company will: (a)
use its best efforts to keep such Registration effective for a period of one
hundred twenty (120) days or until Holders have completed the distribution
described in the Registration Statement relating thereto, whichever first
occurs; (b) furnish such number of prospectuses (including preliminary
prospectuses) and other documents as Holders from time to time may reasonably
request , (c) notify the Holders of Registrable Stock covered by such
Registration Statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Securities 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; and (d) furnish, at the request of Holders, on the date that such
Registrable Stock is delivered to the underwriters for sale, 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 as of such date, of
the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in
form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten
public offering and reasonably satisfactory to Holder, addressed to the
underwriters, if any, and to Holders and (ii) a letter dated as of such date,
from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and
substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to
underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to
Holder, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and if permitted by applicable
accounting standards, to Holder.
7. Information Furnished by Holders. It shall be a condition precedent
--------------------------------
of the Company's obligations under this Agreement that if Registrable Stock is
included in any Registration, Holders shall furnish to the Company such
information regarding Holders and the distribution proposed by Holders as the
Company may reasonably request.
8. Indemnification.
---------------
8.1 Company's Indemnification of Holders. To the extent permitted by
------------------------------------
law, the Company will indemnify Holders, each of their officers, directors and
constituent partners, legal counsel for Holders, and each person controlling
Holders, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls any
underwriter against all claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) to the extent such claims, losses, damages or liabilities arise
out of or are based upon any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a
material fact contained in any prospectus or other document (including any
related Registration Statement) incident to any Registration, qualification or
compliance of Registrable Stock effected pursuant to this Agreement, 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; and the Company will reimburse
Holders, each such underwriter and each person who controls Holders or
underwriter, for any legal and
-7-
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 8.1 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); provided, further, that the Company will not be
--------
liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage,
liability or expense arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or
omission which occurs in reliance upon and in strict conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by Holders, underwriter, or controlling
person under an instrument duly executed by such person and stated to be
specifically for use in connection with the offering of securities of the
Company.
8.2 Holder's Indemnification of Company. To the extent permitted by
-----------------------------------
law, Holders will, if shares of Registrable Stock 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 security holder whose securities
are included in the securities as to which such Registration, qualification or
compliance is being effected pursuant to this Agreement, each of its officers,
directors and constituent partners and each person controlling such other
security holder, against all claims, 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, 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
Holders of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act
applicable to Holders and relating to action or inaction required of Holders in
connection with any such Registration, qualification or compliance; and will
reimburse the Company, such other security holders, such directors, officers,
partners, persons, law and accounting firms, underwriters or 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 statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such
Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in
reliance upon and in strict conformity with written information furnished to the
Company by Holders under an instrument duly executed by such person and stated
to be specifically for use in connection with the offering of securities of the
Company; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this
Section 8.2 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 further, that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 8.2
exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.
8.3 Indemnification Procedure. Promptly after receipt by an
-------------------------
indemnified party under this Section 8 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 8, 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; provided, however, that the indemnifying party
--------
shall be entitled to select counsel for the defense of such claim with the
approval of any parties entitled to indemnification, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld;
-8-
provided further, however, that if either party reasonably determines that there
--------
may be a conflict between the position of the Company and Holders in conducting
the defense of such action, suit or proceeding by reason of recognized claims
for indemnity under this Section 8, then counsel for such party shall be
entitled to conduct the defense to the extent reasonably determined by such
counsel to be necessary to protect the interest of such party. 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, to the extent so prejudiced, of any
liability to the indemnified party under this Section 8, 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 otherwise other than under this
Section 8.
8.4 If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is held by
a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with
respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, the
indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder,
shall to the extent permitted by applicable law contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or
liability 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 opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission;
provided, that in no event shall any contribution by a Holder hereunder exceed
the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.
9. Termination of Registration Rights. The registration rights granted
----------------------------------
herein shall terminate at such time as all shares of Registrable Stock held by
Holders can be sold within a given three-month period without compliance with
the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Rule 144
promulgated thereunder, Holders (together with their affiliates, partners and
former partners) hold less than 1% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock
(treating all shares of Preferred Stock on an as converted basis) and the
Company has completed its Initial Public Offering and is subject to the
provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "EXCHANGE
ACT").
10. Transfer of Rights. The right to cause the Company to Register
------------------
securities granted by the Company to Holders under this Agreement may be
assigned by Holders to a transferee or assignee acquiring at least 250,000
shares of Holder's Registrable Stock (equitably adjusted for any stock splits,
subdivisions, stock dividends, changes, combinations or the like); provided,
--------
however, that (i) the Company must receive written notice prior to the time of
said transfer, stating the name and address of said transferee or assignee and
identifying the securities with respect to which such information and
Registration rights are being assigned, (ii) such transferee or assignee agrees
in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (iii)
the transferee or assignee of such rights must not be a person deemed by the
Board of Directors of the Company, in its reasonable judgment, to be a
competitor or prospective competitor of the Company. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Holders may freely transfer or assign the rights granted to Holders
under this Agreement to any affiliates or partners of Holders.
-9-
11. Market Stand-off. Holders hereby agree that, if so requested by the
----------------
Company and/or the Underwriter's Representative (if any), Holders shall not sell
or otherwise transfer any Registrable Stock or other securities of the Company
for a period specified by the Company or the Underwriter's Representative not to
exceed one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of a
Registration Statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act; provided
that (a) such agreement shall apply only to the Company's Initial Public
Offering, and (b) all officers and directors of the Company enter into similar
agreements. Holders hereby agree that in connection with such agreement, the
Company may issue stop transfer orders to the transfer agent for the Company
with respect to the shares of Registrable Stock held by Holders for such period.
The Company hereby agrees to use its best efforts to enter into similar lock-up
agreements with any holders of Common Stock not already bound by a lock-up
agreement with respect to their shares of Common Stock.
12. Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available to the Holders
------------------
the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the
sale of the Registrable Stock to the public without registration, the Company
agrees to use its best efforts to:
(a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood and defined in SEC Rule 144 or any similar or analogous rule
promulgated under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date of
the first registration filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to
the general public; and
(b) File with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act; and
(c) So long as a Holder owns any Registrable Stock, furnish to such
Holder forthwith upon written request: a written statement by the Company as to
its compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144 of the
Securities Act, and of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (at any
time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); a copy of the
most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company; and such other reports
and documents as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule
or regulation of the SEC allowing it to sell any such securities without
registration.
13. No-Action Letter or Opinion of Counsel in Lieu of Registration;
------------------------------------------------- -------------
Conversion of Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement,
-----------------------------
if the Company shall have obtained from the Commission a "no-action" letter in
which the Commission has indicated that it will take no action if, without
Registration under the Securities Act, Holders dispose of Registrable Stock
covered by any request for Registration made under this Section in the specific
manner in which Holders propose to dispose of the Registrable Stock included in
such request (such as, without limitation, inclusion of such Registrable Stock
in an underwriting initiated by either the Company or other security holders),
or if in the opinion of counsel for the Company concurred in by counsel for
Holders, which concurrence shall not be unreasonably withheld, no Registration
under the Securities Act is required in connection with such disposition, the
Registrable Stock included in such request shall not be eligible for
Registration under this Agreement; provided, however, that any Registrable Stock
--------
not so disposed of shall be eligible for Registration in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement with respect to other proposed dispositions to which
this Section 13 does not apply; provided further, that Registrable Stock may
-------- -------
only be excluded from Registration pursuant to this Section 13 if the "no-
action" letter or opinion of counsel for
-10-
the Company referred to above is delivered to the Holders requesting
Registration of their Registrable Stock within fifteen (15) days of such
request. The Registration rights of Holders set forth in this Agreement are
