dated as of December __, 1999 by and among the Company, Xxxxx X. Xxxxx and
certain other parties.
"Registration Expenses" shall mean the expenses so described in
Section 5.
2
"Registerable Stock" shall mean those shares of Common Stock
which are not held in the Escrow Fund, but only so long as such shares
continue to be Restricted Stock.
"Restricted Stock" shall mean any Registerable Stock until such
time as such Registerable Stock (i) has been effectively registered under
the Securities Act or (ii) has been publicly sold pursuant to Rule 144 (or
any similar provision then in force) under the Securities Act.

definition, in the Merger Agreement.
2. Restrictive Legend. Each certificate representing Common Stock
shall, except as otherwise provided in this Section 2, be stamped or otherwise
imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form:
"THIS SECURITY IS SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS
REGARDING THE SALE THEREOF UNDER AN AGREEMENT
AND PLAN OF MERGER DATED DECEMBER __, 1999
BETWEEN THE HOLDER THEREOF AND PARENT
CORPORATION, HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND MAY NOT BE
TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS IT
HAS BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THAT ACT OR AN
EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE."
A certificate shall not bear such legend if in the opinion of counsel
satisfactory to the Company the securities being sold thereby may be publicly
sold without registration under the Securities Act.
3. Incidental Registration.
(a) Beginning on the Closing and until the one year anniversary of the
Closing, if the Company proposes to register any of its securities under
the Securities Act for sale to the public, whether for its own account or
for the account of other security holders or both (except with respect to
registration statements on Forms X-0, X-0 or
2
3
another form not available for registering the Registerable Stock for sale
to the public), each such time it will give written notice of its intention
to do so to all holders of outstanding Registerable Stock who are party to
this Agreement. Upon the written request of any such holder, received by
the Company within 30 days after the giving of any such notice by the
Company, to register any of its Registerable Stock (which request shall
state the intended method of disposition thereof), the Company shall,
subject to the following sentence, cause the Registerable Stock as to which
registration shall have been so requested to be included in the securities
to be covered by the registration statement proposed to be filed by the
Company, all to the extent requisite to permit the sale or other
disposition by the holder (in accordance with its written request) of such
Registerable Stock so registered. In the event that any registration
pursuant to this Section 3 shall be, in whole or in part, an underwritten
public offering of Common Stock, the number of shares of Registerable Stock
to be included in such an underwriting may be reduced (pro rata among the
requesting holders based upon the number of shares of Registerable Stock
owned by such holders) if and to the extent that the managing underwriter
shall be of the opinion that such inclusion would adversely affect the
marketing of the securities to be sold by the Company therein; provided,
however, that such number of shares of Registerable Stock shall not be
reduced if any shares are to be included in such underwriting for the
account of any person other than the Company or requesting holders of
Registerable Stock.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, the Company may withdraw
any registration statement referred to in this Section 3 without thereby
incurring any liability to the holders of Registerable Stock except for the
Company's obligation to pay any registration expenses incurred in relation
to such a withdrawn registration.
4. Required Registration.
(a) At any time during the period beginning 150 days following the
Closing and ending 365 days following the Closing, Stockholders who are
holders of a majority of the Registerable Stock may deliver a written
request (a "Required Registration Notice") to the Company demanding
registration under the Securities Act of up to 50% of the shares of
Registerable Stock delivered by the Company as Merger Consideration under
the Merger Agreement and held by such requesting holder or holders for sale
in the manner specified in such notice, such registration to take effect no
earlier than 180 days following the Closing and no later than 365 days
following the Closing and to remain in effect until the later of 365 days
following the Closing or 90 days following its effectiveness.
(b) Following receipt of any notice under this Section 4, the Company
shall immediately give written notice of the request for registration to
all Stockholders who hold Registerable Stock and who were not included in
the Required Registration Notice. The Company shall then use its best
efforts to include in a registration statement under the Securities Act for
public sale in accordance with the method of disposition specified in the
Required Registration Notice, the number of shares of Registerable Stock
specified in such notice from each such requesting Stockholder and in all
responses from other Stockholders which are received within 30 days of the
Company's notifying such
3
4
Stockholders of the Required Registration Notice; provided, that the
maximum number of shares of Registerable Stock of any Stockholder which the
Company shall be required to register hereunder (the "Registration
Maximum") shall be 50% of the shares of Common Stock that were delivered to
such Stockholder as Merger Consideration in connection with the closing of
the Merger Agreement; provided, further that the Registration Maximum shall
be reduced on a one-for-one basis in respect of any shares of Common Stock
sold by such Stockholder pursuant to Section 3 hereof. Upon its receipt of
a Required Registration Notice, the Company shall take all reasonable
efforts to ensure that a registration statement relating to such notice is
filed with the Commission by the later to occur of (i) 30 days following
the Company's receipt of such notice or (ii) May 1, 2000. The Company shall
be obligated to register Registerable Stock pursuant to this Section 4 on
one occasion only.
(c) Prior to the effective date of any registration made by the
Company under this Section 4, any such registration will be withdrawn if
the Company receives a written notice to that effect, signed by all holders
of Registerable Stock who made a request for registration under paragraphs
(a) and (b) of this Section 4. If such a notice is delivered, the withdrawn
registration will not qualify as the occasion where the Company is
obligated to make a registration under paragraph (b) of this Section 4.
(d) The Company shall be entitled to include in any registration
statement referred to in this Section 4, for sale in accordance with the
method of disposition specified in the Required Registration Notice, shares
of Common Stock to be sold by the Company for its own account or for sale
by others, except as and to the extent that, in the opinion of the managing
underwriter (if such method of disposition shall be an underwritten public
offering), such inclusion would adversely affect the marketing of the
Registerable Stock to be sold.
5. Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required by
the provisions of Sections 3 and 4 to use its best efforts to effect the
registration of any shares of Registerable Stock under the Securities Act, the
Company will, as expeditiously as possible:
(a) prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with
respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such
registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the
distribution contemplated thereby (determined as hereinafter provided);
(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in
connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration
statement effective for the period specified in paragraph (a) above and
comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the
disposition of all Registerable Stock covered by such registration
statement in accordance with the sellers' intended method of disposition
set forth in such registration statement for such period;
(c) furnish to each seller of Registerable Stock and to each
underwriter such number of copies of the registration statement and the
prospectus included therein
4
5
(including each preliminary prospectus) as such persons reasonably may
request in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the
Registerable Stock covered by such registration statement;
(d) use its best efforts to register or qualify the Registerable Stock
covered by such registration statement under the securities or "blue sky"
laws of such jurisdictions as the sellers of Registerable Stock or, in the
case of an underwritten public offering, the managing underwriter
reasonably shall request; provided, however, that the Company shall not for
any such purpose be required to qualify generally to transact business as a
foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to
consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;
(e) use its best efforts to list the Registerable Stock covered by
such registration statement with any securities exchange on which the
Common Stock of the Company is then listed;
(f) immediately notify each seller of Registerable Stock and each
underwriter under 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 of which the Company has
knowledge as a result of which the prospectus contained 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 light
of the circumstances then existing;
(g) if the offering is underwritten and at the request of any seller
of Registerable Stock, use its best efforts to furnish on the date that
Registerable Stock is delivered to the underwriters for sale pursuant to
such registration: (i) an opinion dated as of such date of counsel
representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, addressed
to the underwriters and to such seller, stating that such registration
statement has become effective under the Securities Act and that (A) to the
best knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness
thereof has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been
instituted or are pending or contemplated under the Securities Act, (B) the
registration statement, the related prospectus and each amendment or
supplement thereof comply as to form in all material respects with the
requirements of the Securities Act (except that such counsel need not
express any opinion as to financial statements or other financial data
contained therein) and (C) to such other effects as reasonably may be
requested by counsel for the underwriters or by such seller or its counsel
and (ii) a letter dated such date from the independent public accountants
retained by the Company, addressed to the underwriters and to such seller,
stating that they are independent public accountants within the meaning of
the Securities Act and that, in the opinion of such accountants, the
financial statements of the Company included in the registration statement
or the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereof, comply as to
form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements
of the Securities Act, and such letter shall additionally cover such other
financial matters (including information as to the period ending no more
than five business days prior to the date of such letter) with respect to
such registration as such underwriters reasonably may request;
5
6
(h) immediately after the Company determines that any of the matters
discussed in Section 5(g) are not true, provide the holders of Registerable
Stock with notice to that effect; and
(i) make available for inspection by each seller of Registerable
Stock, any underwriter participating in any distribution pursuant to such
registration statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent
retained by such seller or underwriter, all financial and other records,
pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the
Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all information
reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant
or agent in connection with such registration statement.
For purposes of Sections 4(c) and 5(a), the period of distribution of
Registerable Stock shall be deemed to extend until the earlier of the sale of
all Registerable Stock covered thereby and 120 days after the effective date
thereof.
In connection with each registration hereunder, the sellers of
Registerable Stock will furnish to the Company in writing such information with
respect to themselves and the proposed distribution by them as reasonably shall
be necessary in order to assure compliance with federal and applicable state
securities laws.
In connection with each registration pursuant to Sections 3 and 4
covering an underwritten public offering, the Company and each seller agree to
enter into a written agreement with the managing underwriter selected in the
manner herein provided in such form and containing such provisions as are
customary in the securities business for such an arrangement between such
underwriter and companies of the Company's size and investment stature.
6. Expenses. All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with
Sections 3 and 4, including, without limitation, all registration and filing
fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and independent
public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including counsel fees)
incurred, in respect of the Company's obligations under this Agreement or of the
rights under this Agreement of the Stockholders, in connection with complying
with state securities or "blue sky" laws, fees of the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc., transfer taxes, fees of transfer agents and
registrars, costs of insurance and reasonable fees and disbursements of one
counsel for the sellers of Registerable Stock, but excluding any Selling
Expenses, are called "Registration Expenses". All underwriting discounts and
selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registerable Stock are called
"Selling Expenses".
The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each
registration statement under Sections 3 and 4. All Selling Expenses in
connection with each registration statement under Sections 3 and 4 shall be
borne by the participating sellers in proportion to the number of shares sold by
each, or by such participating sellers other than the Company (except to the
extent the Company shall be a seller) as they may agree.

7. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) In the event of a registration of any of the Registerable Stock
under the Securities Act pursuant to Sections 3 and 4, the Company will
indemnify and hold harmless each seller of such Registerable Stock
thereunder, each underwriter of such Registerable Stock thereunder and each
other person, if any, who controls such seller or underwriter within the
meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, joint or several, to which such seller, underwriter or
controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any
registration statement under which such Registerable Stock was registered
under the Securities Act pursuant to Sections 3 and 4, any preliminary
prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or
supplement thereof, 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, and
will reimburse each such seller, each such underwriter and each such
controlling person for 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 Company will not
be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such loss, claim,
damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in
conformity with information furnished by any such seller, any such
underwriter or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use
in such registration statement or prospectus.
(b) In the event of a registration of any of the Registerable Stock
under the Securities Act pursuant to Sections 3 and 4, each seller of such
Registerable Stock thereunder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify
and hold harmless the Company, each person, if any, who controls the
Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, each officer of the
Company who signs the registration statement, each director of the Company,
each underwriter and each person who controls any underwriter within the
meaning of the Securities Act, against all losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such officer,
director, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the
Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact
contained in the registration statement under which such Registerable Stock
was registered under the Securities Act pursuant to Sections 3 and 4, any
preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any
amendment or supplement thereof, 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, and will reimburse the Company and each such officer, director,
underwriter and controlling person for 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
such seller will be liable hereunder in any such case if and only
to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of
or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission made in
7
8
reliance upon and in conformity with information pertaining to such seller,
as such, furnished in writing to the Company by such seller specifically
for use in such registration statement or prospectus; provided, further,
that the liability of each seller hereunder shall be limited to the
proportion of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense which is
equal to the proportion that the public offering price of the shares sold
by such seller under such registration statement bears to the total public
offering price of all securities sold thereunder, but not in any event to
exceed the net proceeds received by such seller from the sale of
Registerable Stock covered by such registration statement.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice
of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim
in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder,
notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission so to
notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which
it may have to such indemnified party other than under this Section 6 and
shall only relieve it from any liability which it may have to such
indemnified party under this Section 6 if and to the extent the
indemnifying party is prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action
shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the
indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party
shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to
assume and undertake 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
and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be
liable to such indemnified party under this Section 6 for any legal
expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with
the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of
liaison with counsel so selected; provided, however, that, if the
defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably
concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to it which are
different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party
or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to
conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, the indemnified
party shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such
legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action,
with the expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses
related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as
incurred. No indemnifying party, in defense of any such action, shall,
except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to the 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
action.
(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 of Registerable Stock exercising rights under this Agreement, or any
controlling person of any such holder, makes a claim for indemnification
pursuant to this Section 6 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 6 provides for indemnification in such case, or
(ii) contribution under the
8
9
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 6; then, each indemnifying party shall in lieu
of indemnifying such indemnified party contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or actions in such proportion as appropriate to
reflect the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the holders
of such Registerable Stock, as the case may be, on the other, in connection
with the statements and omissions which resulted in such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or actions as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations, including, without limitation, the failure to give any
notice under the third paragraph of this Section 6. The relative fault
shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue
and alleged untrue statement of a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or the sellers of such
Registerable Stock, as the case may be, on the other and to the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the sellers
of Registerable Stock agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contributions pursuant to this paragraph (d) of Section 6 were determined
by pro rata allocation (even if all of the sellers of such Registerable
Stock, as the case may be, were treated as one entity for such purpose) or
by any other method of allocation which did not take account of the
equitable considerations referred to above in this paragraph (d) of Section
6. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or action in respect thereof, referred
to above in this paragraph (d) of Section 6, shall be deemed to include any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim;
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 of
all such Registerable Stock offered by it pursuant to such registration
statement; and (B) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 12(f) of the Securities
Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
8. Changes in Common Stock. If, and as often as, there is any change
in the Common Stock by way of a stock split, stock dividend, combination or
reclassification, or through a merger, consolidation, reorganization or
recapitalization, or by any other means, appropriate adjustment shall be made in
the provisions hereof so that the rights and privileges granted hereby shall
continue with respect to the Common Stock as so changed.
9. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company
represents and warrants to you as follows:
(a) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the
Company have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action and
will not violate any provision of law, any order of any court or other

in a breach of or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a

behalf of any of the parties hereto shall bind and inure to the benefit of
the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto (including,
without limitation, transferees of any Registerable Stock), whether so
expressed or not; provided, however, that registration rights conferred
herein on the holders of Registerable Stock shall only inure to the benefit
of a transferee of Registerable Stock if (i) there is transferred to such

originally issued pursuant to the Merger Agreement applicable to such
holder, to the direct or indirect transferor of such transferee and (ii)
such transferee shall execute an agreement in favor of the Company to the
effect that such transferee agrees to be bound by, and to comply with, the
Lock-up under the Merger Agreement.
(b) All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder

return receipt requested, postage pre-paid, or telexed, in the case of
non-U.S. residents, addressed as follows:

such party set forth in the Merger Agreement applicable to such party;
if to any subsequent holder of Registerable Shares, to it at such
address as may have been furnished to the Company in writing by such
holder;
or, in any case, at such other address or addresses as shall have
been furnished in writing to the Company (in the case of a holder of
Registerable Stock) or to the holders of Registerable Stock (in the case of
the Company) in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph.
(c) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York.
(d) This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each
of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall
constitute one and the same instrument.
10
11
(e) The obligations of the Company to register shares of Registerable
Stock under Sections 3 and 4 shall terminate one year after the Closing,
unless such obligations terminate earlier in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement.
(f) If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be illegal,
invalid or unenforceable, such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability
shall attach only to such provision and shall not in any manner affect or
render illegal, invalid or unenforceable any other provision of this
Agreement, and this Agreement shall be carried out as if any such illegal,
invalid or unenforceable provision were not contained herein.
(g) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof can be modified,
changed, discharged or terminated except upon the agreement of all parties
hereto.
