"REGISTRABLE SECURITIES" means the Shares; provided, however,
notwithstanding the foregoing, Registrable Securities shall not include any
securities sold to the public either pursuant to a registration statement or
Rule 144 or sold in a private transaction, or securities eligible for resale
pursuant to Rule 144(k).
1.
"REGISTRATION EXPENSES" shall mean all expenses incurred by the
Company in complying with Sections 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 hereof, including, without
limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Company, reasonable fees and disbursements not
to exceed Twenty-five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) of a single special counsel for

SECTION 2. REGISTRATION
2.1 PIGGYBACK REGISTRATIONS. The Company shall notify the Holder of
Registrable Securities in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the filing
of any registration statement under the Securities Act for purposes of a public
offering of securities of the Company (including, but not limited to,
registration statements relating to secondary offerings of securities of the
Company, but excluding registration statements relating to employee benefit
plans or with respect to corporate reorganizations or other transactions under
Rule 145 of the Securities Act) and will afford the Holder an opportunity to
include in such registration statement all of such Registrable Securities held
by the Holder. The Holder desiring to include in any such registration
statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities held by it shall, within
fifteen (15) days after the above-described notice from the Company, so notify
the Company in writing. Such notice shall state the intended method of
disposition of the Registrable Securities by the Holder. If the Holder decides
not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement
thereafter filed by the Company, the Holder shall nevertheless continue to have
the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent 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.
(A) UNDERWRITING. If the registration statement under which the
Company gives notice under this Section 2.1 is for an underwritten offering, the
Company shall so advise the Holder of Registrable Securities. In such event,
the right of the Holder to be included in a registration pursuant to this
Section 2.1 shall be conditioned upon the Holder's participation in such
underwriting and the inclusion of the Holder's Registrable Securities in the
underwriting to
2.
the extent provided herein. The Holder shall enter into an underwriting
agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for
such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of the
Agreement, if the underwriter determines in good faith that marketing factors
require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the number of
shares that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated, first, to
the Company; second, to any shareholder of the Company (other than the Holder)
possessing rights entitling such shareholder to have its shares of Common Stock
registered on a pro rata basis; and third, to the Holder. No such reduction
shall reduce the securities being offered by the Company for its own account to
be included in the registration and underwriting.
(B) RIGHT TO TERMINATE REGISTRATION. The Company shall have the
right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this
Section 2.1 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not the
Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. The Registration
Expenses of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in
accordance with Section 2.3 hereof.
2.2 FORM S-3 REGISTRATION. In case the Company shall receive from the
Holder a written request or requests that the Company effect a registration on
Form S-3 (or any successor to 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 Securities owned by the Holder, the Company will:
(A) 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 the Holder's
Registrable Securities as are specified in such request; provided, however, that
the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration,
qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 2.2:
(I) if Form S-3 (or any successor or similar form) is not
available for such offering by the Holder, or
(II) if the Holder, together with the holders of any other
securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to
sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate
price to the public of less than $1,000,000, or
(III) if the Company shall furnish to the Holder a certificate
signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors 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 and its shareholder for such Form S-3
registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have
the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration statement for a
period of not more than one hundred eighty (180) days after receipt of the
request of the Holder under this Section 2.2: provided, that such right to delay
a request shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve
(12) month period, or
3.
(IV) if the Company has, within the twelve (12) month period
preceding the date of such request, already effected one (1) registration on
Form S-3 for the Holder pursuant to this Section 2.2, 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.
(B) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a Form S-3
registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities
so requested to be registered as soon as practicable after receipt of the
request by the Holder. All such Registration Expenses incurred in connection
with registrations requested pursuant to this Section 2.2 after the first
registration shall be paid by the Holder.
2.3 EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. Except as specifically provided herein, all
Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the registration,
qualification or compliance pursuant to any registration under Section 2.1 or
the first registration under Section 2.2 herein shall be borne by the Company.
All Selling Expenses incurred in connection with any registrations hereunder,
shall be borne by the Holder. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay
for expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.2, the
request of which has been subsequently withdrawn by the Holder unless the
withdrawal is based upon material adverse information concerning the Company of
which the Holder was not aware at the time of such request.
2.4 OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. Whenever required to effect the
registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously
as reasonably possible:
(A) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with
respect to such Registrable Securities and use all commercially reasonable
efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective.
(B) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to
such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such
registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the
Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such
registration statement and deliver a copy of such amendments and supplements to
Holder as may be reasonably requested.
(C) Furnish to the Holder such number of copies of a prospectus,
including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order
to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities.
(D) Use all commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify
the securities covered by such registration statement under such other
securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably
requested by the Holder, provided that the Company
4.
shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to
qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any
such states or jurisdictions.
(E) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and
perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary
form, with the managing underwriter(s) of such offering. The Holder
participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its
obligations under such an agreement.
(F) Notify the Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement at any time when a prospectus (including any information
incorporated therein by reference pursuant to Form S-3) 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.
(G) Furnish, at the request of the Holder participating in the
registration, on the date that such Registrable Securities are 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 the Holder requesting registration, addressed to the
underwriters, if any, and to the Holder requesting registration of Registrable
Securities 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 the Holder
requesting registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and if permitted
by applicable accounting standards, to the Holder requesting registration of
Registrable Securities.
2.5 TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. All registration rights granted
under this Section 2 shall terminate and be of no further force and effect five
(5) years after the date hereof.
2.6 DELAY OF REGISTRATION; FURNISHING INFORMATION.
(A) The Holder shall not have any right to obtain or seek an
injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result
of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or
implementation of this Section 2.
(B) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the
Company to take any action pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2 that the Holder
furnish to the Company such information regarding himself, the Registrable
Securities held by him and the intended method of disposition of such securities
as shall be required to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities.
5.
(C) The Company shall have no obligation with respect to any
registration requested pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 if, due to the
operation of subsection 2.6(b), the number of shares or the anticipated
aggregate offering price of the Registrable Securities to be included in the
registration does not equal or exceed the number of shares or the anticipated
aggregate offering price required to originally trigger the Company's obligation
to initiate such registration as specified in Section 2.2.
2.7 INDEMNIFICATION. In the event any Registrable Securities are
included in a registration statement under Sections 2.1 or 2.2:
(A) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and
hold harmless the Holder and legal counsel of the Holder, any underwriter (as
defined in the Securities Act) for the Holder and each person, if any, who
controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or
the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or
several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange
Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a
"Violation") by the Company: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including
any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any
amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged
violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state
securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act,
the Exchange Act or any state securities law in connection with the offering
covered by such registration statement; and the Company will reimburse the
Holder, underwriter or 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
indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.7(a) 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 Company, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the Company be liable in any such case
for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it
arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection
with such registration by such Holder, underwriter or controlling person of the
Holder.
(B) To the extent permitted by law, the Holder will, if Registrable
Securities held by the Holder are included in the securities as to which such
registration qualifications or compliance is being effected, indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, each of its directors, its officers, and legal counsel and
each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the
Securities Act, and any underwriter, against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (joint or several) to which the Company or any such director,
officer, controlling person, or underwriter may become subject under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out
of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the
6.
extent) that the Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished by the Holder under an instrument duly executed by
the Holder and stated to be specifically for use in connection with such
registration; and the Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer, controlling
person, or underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such
loss, claim, damage, liability or action if it is judicially determined that
there was such a Violation; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement
contained in this Section 2.7(b) 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 2.7 exceed the proceeds from the offering received by the
Holder.
(C) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section
2.7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental
action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be
made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.7, deliver to the
indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the
indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent
the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall
have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid
by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the
counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual
or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other
party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver
written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the
commencement of any such action, if materially prejudicial to its ability to
defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to
the indemnified party under this Section 2.7, but the omission so to deliver
written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability
that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 2.7.
(D) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.7 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 the
Holder hereunder exceed the proceeds from the offering received by the Holder.
7.
(E) The obligations of the Company and the Holder under this Section
2.7 shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a
registration statement and the termination of this agreement. No Indemnifying
Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the
consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter
into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the
giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from
all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
2.8 "MARKET STAND-OFF" AGREEMENT. If requested by the Company as the
representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the
Company, the Holder shall not sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any
Shares of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company held by the Holder
(other than those included in the registration) for a period specified by the
representative of the underwriters 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 all officers and directors of the
Company shall enter into similar agreements.
The obligations described in this Section 2.8 shall not apply to a
registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8
or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future, or a registration
relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction on Form S-4 or similar
forms that may be promulgated in the future. The Company may impose stop-
transfer instructions with respect to the shares of Common Stock (or other
securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of said one
hundred eighty (180) day period.
2.9 AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. Any provision of this Section 2 may
be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a
particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the
written consent of the Company and the Holder of the Registrable Securities. Any
amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 2.9 shall be
binding upon the Holder and the Company. By acceptance of any benefits under
this Section 2, Holder of Registrable Securities hereby agree to be bound by the
provisions hereunder.
2.10 RULE 144 REPORTING. With a view to making available to the Holder the
benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale
of the Registrable Securities 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;
(B) File with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act;
(C) So long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to
such Holder forthwith upon request: a written statement by the Company as to
its compliance with
8.
the reporting requirements of said Rule 144 of the Securities Act, and of the
Exchange Act (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 the Holder may reasonably
request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing it to
sell any such securities without registration.

exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to the Holder, upon any breach,

such breach, default or noncompliance, or any acquiescence therein, or of any
similar breach, default or noncompliance thereafter occurring. It is further
agreed that any waiver, permit, consent, or approval of any kind or character on
the Holder's part of any breach, default or noncompliance under the Agreement or
