------------------
own account and not with a present view toward the public sale or distribution
thereof, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted from registration under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"); provided,
however, that by making the representation herein, the Investor does not agree
to hold any of the Shares for any minimum or other specific term and reserves
the right to dispose of the Shares at any time in accordance with or pursuant to
a registration statement or an exemption under the Securities Act; provided,
further that the Investor does agree to sell not more than 10,000 Shares during

specific purpose of acquiring the Shares.
2.3 Reliance on Exemptions. The Investor understands that the Shares
----------------------
are being offered and sold to it in reliance upon specific exemptions from the
registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and
that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Investor's
compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments
and understandings of the Investor set forth herein in order to determine the
availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Investor to acquire
the Shares.

-----------
relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company, and materials
relating to the offer and sale of the Shares, that have been requested by the

Shares involves a significant degree of risk.

investment therein.
2.6 Transfer or Resale. The Investor understands that:

(a) except as provided in Article V, the Shares have not been and
are not required to be registered under the Securities Act or any applicable
state securities laws and consequently, the Investor may have to bear the risk
of owning the Shares for an indefinite period of time because the Shares may not
be transferred unless: (i) the resale of the Shares is registered pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the Securities Act; (ii) the Investor has
delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel (in form, substance and scope
customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that

an exemption from registration under the Securities Act;
-2-
(b) any sale of the Shares made in reliance on Rule 144 may be made
only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and, if Rule 144 is not
applicable, any resale of the Shares under circumstances in which the seller (or
the person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as
that term is defined in the Securities Act) may require compliance with some
other exemption under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") thereunder; and
(c) except as set forth in Article V, neither the Company nor any
other person is under any obligation to register the Shares under the Securities
Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of
any exemption thereunder.

-------
Shares may be sold by the Investor under Rule 144(k) or (b) the resale of the
Shares has been registered under the Securities Act as contemplated by Article
V, the certificates representing the Shares shall bear a restrictive legend in
substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed
against transfer of the certificates for such Shares):
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY
STATE OF THE UNITED STATES. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR
ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE
SECURITIES UNDER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS, OR UNLESS OFFERED, SOLD OR

the SEC (i) such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement, (ii)
any prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement and (iii) any
documents required by the SEC, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, each as
may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement current and continuously
effective as a "shelf" registration statement for a period not exceeding the
earliest of (x) the date on which the Investor may sell all Shares then held by
the Investor, without registration or without regard to any volume limitations
by reason of Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act or (y) such time as all Shares
held by the Investor have been sold pursuant to a Registration Statement (the
"Registration Period").
(d) Furnish to the Investor whose Shares are included in a
Registration Statement, (i) promptly after each document is prepared and
publicly distributed, filed with the SEC or received by the Company, one copy of

relevant to the Investor contained in any item of correspondence from the SEC or
the staff of the SEC, in each case relating to such Registration Statement
(other than any portion of any item thereof which contains information for which
the Company has sought confidential treatment), and (ii) such number of copies
of the Registration Statement and prospectuses in conformity with the
requirements of the Securities Act and such other documents as the Investor may

obligation of the Company to deliver copies of prospectuses or preliminary
prospectuses to the Investor shall be subject to the receipt by the Company of
reasonable assurances from the Investor that the Investor shall comply with the
applicable provisions of the Securities Act and of such other securities or Blue
Sky laws as may be applicable in connection with any use of such prospectuses or
preliminary prospectuses. The Company shall immediately notify by facsimile the
Investor whose Shares are included in any Registration Statement of the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment.
(e) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register and
qualify the Shares covered by a Registration Statement under such other
securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Investor who holds (or
has the right to hold) Shares being offered reasonably requests, (ii) prepare
and file in those jurisdictions any amendments (including post-effective
amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be
necessary to maintain their effectiveness during the Registration Period, (iii)
take any other actions necessary to maintain such registrations and
qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv)
take any other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Shares
for sale in such jurisdictions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company is
not required, in connection with such obligations, to (A) qualify to do business
in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for
this Section 5.1, (B) subject itself to general taxation in any such
jurisdiction, (C) file a general consent to service of process in any such
jurisdiction, (D) provide any undertakings that cause material expense or burden

delivered under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, file all documents
required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15 of the
Exchange Act within the time periods required by the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations promulgated thereunder.

obtain knowledge of the issuance of any stop order by the SEC delaying or
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of the initiation
of any proceeding for that purpose; and it shall promptly use its

commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to
obtain its withdrawal at the earliest possible moment if such stop order should
be issued.
It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take
any action pursuant to this Section 5.1 that the Investor shall furnish to the
Company such information regarding itself, the Shares to be sold by the
Investor, and the intended method of disposition of such Shares as shall be
required to effect the registration of the Shares.

information set forth in the Registration Statement regarding the Investor or
its plan of distribution.
(a) Any Registration Statement (including any amendments or
supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) filed by the Company
covering the Shares shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were
made, not misleading. Except in the event that subsection (c) below applies, the
Company shall: (i) prepare and file from time to time with the SEC a
post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the
related prospectus or a supplement or amendment to any document incorporated
therein by reference or file any other required document so that such
Registration Statement shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, and so that, as thereafter delivered
to the Investor of the Shares being sold thereunder, such prospectus shall not
contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (ii)
provide the Investor copies of any documents filed pursuant to Section
5.3(b)(i); and (iii) inform the Investor that the Company has complied with its
obligations in Section 5.3(b)(i) (or that, if the Company has filed a
post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement which has not yet been
declared effective, the Company shall notify the Investor to that effect, shall
use its commercially reasonable efforts to secure the effectiveness of such
post-effective amendment as promptly as possible and shall promptly notify the
Investor pursuant to when the amendment has become effective).
(b) In the event: (i) of any request by the SEC or any other federal
or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of the
Registration Statement for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement
or a related prospectus or for additional information; (ii) of the issuance by
the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order
suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or the initiation of
any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) of the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption
from qualification of any of the Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the
initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; or (v) of any event or
circumstance which necessitates the making of any changes in the Registration
Statement or prospectus, or any document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated therein by reference, so that, in the case of the Registration
Statement, it shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any
omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the
prospectus, it shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any
omission to state a material fact required to be
-9-
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; then the Company shall
deliver a certificate in writing to the Investor (the "Suspension Notice") to
the effect of the foregoing and, upon receipt of such Suspension Notice, the
Investor shall refrain from selling any Shares pursuant to the Registration
Statement (a "Suspension") until the Investor's receipt of copies of a
supplemented or amended prospectus prepared and filed by the Company, or until
it is advised in writing by the Company that the current prospectus may be used,
and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are
incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in any such prospectus. In the
event of any Suspension, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to cause the use of the prospectus so suspended to be resumed as soon as
reasonably practicable after delivery of a Suspension Notice to the Investor,
shall prepare a supplement or amendment to the Registration Statement to correct
such untrue statement or omission, and shall deliver a number of copies of such
supplement or amendment to the Investor as the Investor may reasonably request.
In addition to and without limiting any other remedies (including, without
limitation, at law or at equity) available to the Investor, the Investor shall
be entitled to specific performance in the event that the Company fails to
comply with the provisions of this Section 5.3(b). Subject to the Company's
rights under this Section 5.3(b), the Company shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension
of effectiveness of the Registration Statement and, if such an order is issued,
shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of such
order at the earliest possible time and to notify the Investor that holds the
Shares being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof. If
the use of the Registration Statement is suspended by the Company, the Company
shall promptly give notice of the suspension to the Investor and shall promptly
notify the Investor as soon as the use of the Registration Statement may be
resumed.
(c) Provided that a Suspension is not then in effect, the Investor may
sell the Shares (subject to the 10,000 Shares per trading day limitation set
forth in Section 2.1 above), under the Registration Statement, provided that it
arranges for delivery of a current prospectus to the transferee of such Shares.
Upon receipt of a request therefore, the Company has agreed to provide an
adequate number of current prospectuses to the Investor and to supply copies to
any other parties requiring such prospectuses.
5.4 Listing. On or before the 20th business day following the date the
-------
Registration Statement is first declared effective by the SEC, the Company shall
use its commercially reasonable efforts to secure the listing of the Shares upon
each national securities exchange or automated quotation system, if any, upon
which shares of Common Stock are then listed (subject to official notice of
issuance) and, so long as any Investor owns any of the Shares, shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to maintain such listing of the Shares. The
Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and so long as
any Investor owns any of the Shares, maintain the listing and trading of its
Common Stock on Nasdaq, or the American Stock Exchange or the New York Stock
Exchange, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply in all
respects with the Company's reporting, filing and other obligations under the
bylaws or rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and such
exchanges, as applicable.
5.5 Review by the Investor. The Company shall permit the Investor to
----------------------
review the Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (as
well as all requests for acceleration or effectiveness thereof) for two business
days prior to their filing with the SEC, and shall not file any document in a
form to which the Investor reasonably objects, unless otherwise required by law
in the opinion of the Company's counsel. The sections of any such Registration
Statement, including information with respect to the Investor, the Investor's
beneficial ownership of the Shares or the Investor's intended method of
disposition of the Shares, must conform to the information provided to the
Company by the Investor.
5.6 Expenses. Subject to the limitations contained herein, the Company
--------
shall pay the following expenses incident to the registration of the Shares
under this Article V: (a) registration, filing
-10-
and NASD fees, all fees and expenses of complying with state securities or Blue
Sky laws, (b) the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and of its
independent public accountants, including the expenses of any "cold comfort"
letters required by or incident to such performance and compliance, and (c)
premiums and other costs of policies of insurance purchased by the Company at
its option against liabilities arising out of the public offering of such
Shares.
5.7 Indemnification.
---------------
(a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Investor against
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, to which such Investor 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 an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in the Registration Statement, or the Prospectus, in the form first
filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations, or
filed as part of the Registration Statement at the time of effectiveness if no
Rule 424(b) filing is required (the "Prospectus"), or any amendment or
supplement thereto or any amendment 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, and
will reimburse the Investor for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
by the Investor in connection with investigating or defending any such action or
claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall
not be liable in any such case 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 the Registration
Statement or any such amendment in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by the Investor expressly for use therein.
(b) The Investor will indemnify and hold harmless the Company against
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company 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 an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or any amendment
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, 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 made in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or
any such amendment in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished to the Company by the Investor expressly for use therein; and will
reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the
Company in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim
as such expenses are incurred.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection
(a) or (b) above 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 under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in
writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the
indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to
any indemnified party otherwise than under such subsection. 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 therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly
with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense
thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not,
except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying
party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party
of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall
not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal
expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently
incurred by such indemnified
-11-
party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of
investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the
indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the
entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim
in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder
(whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such
action or claim), unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an
unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of
such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission
of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified
party.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.7 is
unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under
subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), referred to therein, then each
indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof), in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Investor on
the other from the offering of the Shares. If, however, the allocation provided
by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if
the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under subsection (c)
above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or
payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the
Company on the one hand and the Investor on the other in connection with the
statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The respective relative benefits received by the
Company on the one hand and the Investor on the other shall be deemed to be in
the same proportion as the amount of the Fee divided by the proceeds received by
the Investor from the sale of the Shares bears to the proceeds received by the
Investor from the sale of the Shares less the Fee divided by the proceeds
received from the amount of Shares sold. The relative fault shall be determined
by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or
the Investor on the other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
The Company and the Investor agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contributions pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of
the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection. The amount
paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), referred to above in
this subsection (d) 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. 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.
(e) The obligations of the Company under this Section 5.7 shall be in
addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend,
upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls the
Investor within the meaning of the Securities Act; and the obligations of the
Investor under this Section 5.7 shall be in addition to any liability which the
Investor may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and
conditions, to each officer and director of the Company and to each person, if
any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act.
(f) The respective indemnities, agreements, representations,
warranties and other statements of the Company and the Investor, as set forth in
this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this
Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any
-12-
investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof), made by or on behalf
of the Investor or any controlling person of the Investor, or the Company, or
any officer or director or controlling person of the Company, and shall survive
delivery of and payment for the Shares.
5.8 Information Available. So long as the Registration Statement is
---------------------
effective covering the resale of the Shares owned by the Investor, the Company
shall furnish to the Investor, upon the reasonable request of the Investor, an
adequate number of copies of the Prospectuses to supply to any other party
requiring such Prospectuses; and the Company, upon the reasonable request of the
Investor, shall meet with the Investor or a representative thereof at the
company's headquarters to discuss all information relevant for disclosure in the
Registration Statement covering the Shares and shall otherwise cooperate with
any Investor conducting an investigation for the purpose of reducing or
eliminating the Investor's exposure to liability under the Securities Act,
including the reasonable production of information at the Company's
headquarters; provided, that the Company shall not be required to disclose any
confidential information to or meet at its headquarters with any Investor until
and unless the Investor shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement with
the Company in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company with
respect thereto.
5.9 Rule 144 Information. In order to make available to the Investor the
--------------------
benefits of Rule 144 or any similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at
any time permit the Investor to sell the Shares to the public without
registration, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to:
(a) file with the SEC in a timely manner, and make and keep available,
all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act
and the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements
(it being understood that nothing herein limits the Company's obligations under
Section 5.5 of this Agreement) and the filing and availability of such reports
and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and
(b) furnish to the Investor, so long as the Investor holds the Shares,
promptly upon the Investor's request, (i) a written statement by the Company
that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities
Act and the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly
report of the Company and such other reports and documents filed by the Company
with the SEC and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to
permit the Investor to sell such Shares pursuant to Rule 144 without
registration.
5.10 Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights of the Investor
---------------------------------
hereunder, including the right to have the Company register the Shares pursuant
to this Agreement, shall be automatically assigned by the Investor to
transferees or assignees of all or any portion of such Shares, but only if (a)
the Investor agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such
rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within a
reasonable time after such assignment, (b) the Company is, within a reasonable
time after such transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of the
name and address of such transferee or assignee and the Shares with respect to
which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned, (c) after such
transfer or assignment, the further disposition of such Shares by the transferee
or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act and applicable state
securities laws, (d) at or before the time the Company received the written
notice contemplated by clause (b) of this sentence, the transferee or assignee
agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions
contained herein (including the 10,000 Shares per trading day limitation set
forth in Section 2.1 above and the items set forth in Section 4.7 above and
Section 7.4 below), and (e) the transferee is an "accredited investor" as that
term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D.
-13-
ARTICLE VI.
TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS; REMOVAL OF LEGENDS
6.1 Issuance of Shares. The Company shall instruct its transfer agent to
------------------
issue certificates, registered in the name of the Investor or its nominee, for
the Shares. The Company shall not give to its transfer agent any instruction
other than as described in this Article V and stop-transfer instructions to give
effect to Section 2.7 hereof (prior to registration of the Shares under the
Securities Act). Nothing in this Section shall affect in any way the Investor's
obligations and agreement set forth in Sections 2.6 and 2.7 hereof to resell the
Shares pursuant to an effective registration statement or in compliance with an
exemption from the registration requirement of applicable securities laws.
6.2 Unrestricted Shares. If, unless otherwise required by applicable state
-------------------
securities laws, (a) Shares represented by a certificate have been registered
under an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act, (b) a
holder of the Shares provides the Company and the Transfer Agent with an opinion
of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in
comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such
Shares may be made without registration under the Securities Act and such sale
either has occurred or may occur without restriction on the manner of such sale
or transfer, (c) such holder provides the Company and the Transfer Agent with
reasonable assurances that such Shares can be sold under Rule 144, or (d) such
Shares can be sold without restriction as to the number of the Shares sold under
Rule 144(k), the Company shall permit the transfer of such Shares, and the
Transfer Agent shall issue one or more certificates, free from any restrictive
legend, in such name and in such denominations as specified by such holder. In
the event that the restrictive legend is removed from any of the certificates
for such Shares and thereafter the effectiveness of a registration statement
covering such Shares is suspended or terminated or the Company determines that a
supplement or amendment thereto is required by applicable securities laws, then
upon a reasonable advance notice to the Investor the Company may require that
the restrictive legend be placed on any certificates for such Shares that cannot
be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or under Rule 144, and
the Investor shall cooperate in the replacement of such legend. Such legend
shall thereafter be removed when such Shares may again be sold pursuant to an
effective registration statement or Rule 144.
ARTICLE VII.
