the terms of this Agreement, (B) such Holder shall have notified the Company
of the proposed disposition and (C) if reasonably requested by the Company,
such Holder shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel,
reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not
require registration of such shares under the Securities Act. It is agreed
that the Company will not require opinions of counsel for transactions made
pursuant to Rule 144.
(iii) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (i) and
(ii) above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be
necessary for a transfer by a Holder which is (A) a partnership to its
partners or former partners in accordance with partnership interests, (B) a
corporation to its shareholders in accordance with their interest in the
corporation, (C) a limited liability company to its members or former members
in accordance with their interest in the limited liability company or (D) to
a Holder's family member or trust for the benefit of an individual Holder;
provided that in each case the transferee will be subject to the terms of
this Agreement to the same extent as if he were an original Holder hereunder,
or (E) an affiliate of a Holder.

securities laws or as provided elsewhere in this Agreement):

AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED,
ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND UNTIL
REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT OR UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED
AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS
COUNSEL THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.
(c) The Company shall be obligated to reissue promptly unlegended
certificates at the request of any Holder thereof if the Holder shall have
obtained an opinion of counsel (which counsel may be counsel to the Company
or in-house counsel of a Holder) reasonably acceptable to the Company to the
effect that the securities proposed to be disposed of may lawfully be so
disposed of without registration, qualification or legend.
(d) Any legend endorsed on an instrument pursuant to applicable
state securities laws and the stop-transfer instructions with respect to such
securities shall be removed upon receipt by the Company of an order of the
appropriate blue sky authority authorizing such removal.
3.2 DEMAND REGISTRATION.
(a) Subject to the conditions of this Section 3.2, if the Company
shall receive a written request from the Holders of more than a majority of
the Registrable Securities then outstanding (the "INITIATING HOLDERS") that
the Company file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering
the registration of Registrable Securities having a net aggregate offering
price to the public in excess of twenty million dollars ($20,000,000), then
the Company shall, within thirty (30) days of the receipt thereof, give
written notice of such request to all Holders, and subject to the limitations
of this Section 3.2, use its best efforts to effect, as soon as practicable,
the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities that
the Holders request to be registered.
(b) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable
Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall
so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this
Section 3.2 or any request pursuant to Section 3.4 and the Company shall
include such information in the written notice referred to in Section 3.2(a)
or Section 3.4(a), as applicable. In such event, the right of any Holder to
include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned
upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of
such Holder's Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise
mutually agreed by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders and such
Holder) to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute
their securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting
agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for
such underwriting by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders (which
underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company).
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.2 or Section 3.4, if
the underwriter advises the Company that marketing factors require a
limitation of the number of securities to be underwritten
4.
(including Registrable Securities) then the Company shall so advise all
Holders of Registrable Securities which would otherwise be underwritten
pursuant hereto, and the number of shares that may be included in the
underwriting shall be allocated to the Holders of such Registrable Securities
on a pro rata basis based on the number of Registrable Securities held by all
such Holders (including the Initiating Holders). Any Registrable Securities
excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from the
registration.
(c) The Company shall not be required to effect a registration
pursuant to this Section 3.2:
(i) prior to the earlier of (i) March 17, 2001 or (ii) six
months after the closing of the Initial Offering; or
(ii) after the Company has effected three (3) registrations
pursuant to this Section 3.2, and such registrations have been declared or
ordered effective; or
(iii) during the period starting with the date of filing of,
and ending on the date one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective
date of the registration statement pertaining to the Initial Offering;
provided that the Company makes reasonable good faith efforts to cause such
registration statement to become effective;
(iv) if within thirty (30) days of receipt of a written
request from Initiating Holders pursuant to Section 3.2(a), the Company gives
notice to the Holders of the Company's intention to file a registration
statement with the SEC in connection with its Initial Offering within ninety
(90) days and the Company shall make reasonable good faith efforts to cause
such registration statement to become effective within ninety (90) days of
such filing with the SEC; 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
(v) if the Company shall furnish to Holders requesting a
registration statement pursuant to this Section 3.2, a certificate signed by
the Chairman of the Board 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 stockholders for such registration statement to be effected
at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer such
filing for a period of not more than sixty (60) days after receipt of the
request of the Initiating Holders; provided that such right to delay a
request shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve
(12) month period.
3.3 PIGGYBACK REGISTRATIONS. The Company shall notify all Holders 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 each such
Holder an opportunity to include in such registration statement all or part
of such Registrable Securities held by such Holder. Each Holder desiring to
include in any such registration statement all or any part of the Registrable
Securities held by it shall, within twenty (20) 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 such Holder. If a Holder decides not to include all of its
Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the
Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include
any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration statement or
5.
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 3.3 is for an underwritten offering,
the Company shall so advise the Holders of Registrable Securities. In such
event, the right of any such Holder to be included in a registration pursuant
to this Section 3.3 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in
such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's Registrable Securities
in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to
distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting 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 the
Holders on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable
Securities held by the Holders; and third, to any stockholder of the Company
(other than a Holder) on a pro rata basis. No such reduction shall (i)
reduce the securities being offered by the Company for its own account to be
included in the registration and underwriting, or (ii) reduce the amount of
securities of the selling Holders included in the registration below
thirty-three percent (33%) of the total amount of securities included in such
registration, unless such offering is the Initial Offering and such
registration does not include shares of any other selling stockholders, in
which event any or all of the Registrable Securities of the Holders may be
excluded in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. In no event
will shares of any other selling stockholder be included in any such
registration which would reduce the number of shares which may be included by
Holders without the written consent of holders of not less than a majority of
the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the offering. For purposes
of pro rata apportionment pursuant to this Section 3.3, for any Holder that
is a partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners and
shareholders of such Holder, or the estates and family members of any such
partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the
foregoing persons shall be deemed to be a single "selling Holder," and any
pro rata reduction with respect to such "selling Holder" shall be based upon
the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities owned by all such related
entities and individuals.
(b) RIGHT TO TERMINATE REGISTRATION. The Company shall have the
right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this
Section 3.3 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not
any 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 3.5 hereof.
3.4 FORM S-3 REGISTRATION. In case the Company shall receive from any
Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities a written request or requests
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 Securities owned by such Holder
or Holders, the Company will:
(a) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and
any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders of Registrable
Securities; and
(b) 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 such Holder's
or Holders' Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together
with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder or
Holders joining in such
6.
request as are specified in a written request given within twenty (20) 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 3.4:
(i) if Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the
Holders;
(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 Securities and such other securities (if any) at an
aggregate price to the public of less than five hundred thousand dollars
($500,000);
(iii) if the Company shall furnish to the Holders 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
stockholders 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 sixty (60) days
after receipt of the request of the Holder or Holders under this Section 3.4;
provided, that such right to delay a request shall be exercised by the
Company not more than once in any twelve (12) month period;
(iv) if the Company has within the twelve (12) month period
preceding the date of such request, already effected one (1) such
registration on Form S-3 for the Holders pursuant to this Section 3.4; 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.
(c) 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 or requests of the Holders. All such Registration Expenses
incurred in connection with registrations requested pursuant to this Section
3.4 after the first three (3) registrations shall be paid by the selling
Holders pro rata in proportion to the number of shares sold by each.
3.5 EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. Except as specifically provided herein,
all Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration,
qualification or compliance pursuant to Section 3.2 or the first three
registrations under each of Section 3.3 and Section 3.4 herein shall be borne
by the Company. All Selling Expenses incurred in connection with any
registrations hereunder, shall be borne by the holders of the securities so
registered pro rata on the basis of the number of shares so registered. The
Company shall not, however, be required to pay for expenses of any
registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 3.2 or 3.4, the request of
which has been subsequently withdrawn by the Holders unless (a) the
withdrawal is based upon material adverse information concerning the Company
of which the Initiating Holders or Holders, as applicable, were not aware at
the time of such request or (b) the Holders of a majority of Registrable
Securities agree to forfeit their right to one requested registration
pursuant to Section 3.2 or Section 3.4, as applicable, in which event such
right shall be forfeited by all Holders. If the Holders are required to pay
the Registration Expenses, such expenses shall be borne by the holders of
securities (including Registrable Securities) requesting such registration in
proportion to the number of shares for which registration was requested. If
the Company is required to pay the Registration Expenses of a withdrawn
offering pursuant to clause (a) above, then the Holders shall not
7.
forfeit their rights pursuant to Section 3.2 or Section 3.4 to a demand
registration pursuant to the limitations of Section 3.2 and Section 3.4,
respectively.
3.6 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

thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for up to one hundred
twenty (120) days or, if earlier, until the Holder or Holders have completed
the distribution related thereto.
(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

securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities
or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by
the Holders, provided that the Company 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. Each
Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform
its obligations under such an agreement.
(f) Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities 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.
(g) Furnish, at the request of a majority of the Holders
participating in the registration, on the date that such Registrable
Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are

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 a majority
in interest of the Holders requesting registration, addressed to the
underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of
Registrable Securities and (ii) a letter dated as of such date, from the
independent certified public accountants of the Company,
8.
in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public
accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably
satisfactory to a majority in interest of the Holders requesting
registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and if permitted by
applicable accounting standards, to the Holders requesting registration of
Registrable Securities.
3.7 TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. A Holder's registration rights
shall expire if (a) the Company has completed its Initial Offering and is
subject to the provisions of the Exchange Act, (b) such Holder (together
with its affiliates, partners and former partners) holds less than 1% of the
Company's outstanding Common Stock (treating all shares of convertible
Preferred Stock on an as converted basis) and (c) all Registrable Securities
held by and issuable to such Holder (and its affiliates, partners and former
partners) may be sold under Rule 144 during any ninety (90) day period.
3.8 DELAY OF REGISTRATION; FURNISHING INFORMATION.
(a) No Holder shall 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 3.
(b) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the
Company to take any action pursuant to Section 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 that the
selling Holders shall furnish to the Company such information regarding
themselves, the Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method
of disposition of such securities as shall reasonably be required to effect
the registration of their Registrable Securities.
(c) The Company shall have no obligation with respect to any
registration requested pursuant to Section 3.2 or Section 3.4 if, due to the
operation of subsection 3.2(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 3.2 or
Section 3.4, whichever is applicable.
3.9 INDEMNIFICATION. In the event any Registrable Securities are
included in a registration statement under Sections 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4:
(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and
hold harmless each Holder, the partners, officers, affiliates, shareholders
and directors of each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities
Act) for such 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 each such Holder, partner,
9.
affiliate, shareholder, officer, director, 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 3.9(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, partner, officer, director, legal counsel,
underwriter or controlling person of such Holder.
(b) To the extent permitted by law, each Holder will severally,
but not jointly, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included
in the securities as to which such registration, qualification 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, any
underwriter and any other Holder selling securities under such registration
statement or any of such other Holder's partners, directors or officers or
any person who controls such Holder, against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (joint or several) to which the Company or any such director,
officer, controlling person, underwriter or other such Holder, or partner,
director, officer or controlling person of such other Holder 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 extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder
under an instrument duly executed by such Holder and stated to be
specifically for use in connection with such registration; and each such
Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the
Company or any such director, officer, controlling person, underwriter or
other Holder, or partner, officer, director or controlling person of such
other Holder 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 3.9(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 3.9(b) exceed the net proceeds from the offering
received by such Holder.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 3.9 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 3.9,
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 3.9, 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 3.9.
10.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 3.9 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 net
proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.
(e) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section
3.9 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.
3.10 ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights to cause the Company
to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 3 may be assigned
by a Holder to a transferee or assignee of Registrable Securities which (a)
is a subsidiary, parent, affiliate, general partner, limited partner or
retired partner of a Holder, (b) is a Holder's family member or trust for the
benefit of an individual Holder, or (c) acquires at least twenty-five
thousand (25,000) shares of Registrable Securities (as adjusted for stock
splits and combinations); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, (A) the transferor shall, within
ten (10) days after such transfer, furnish to the Company written notice of
the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with
respect to which such registration rights are being assigned and (B) such
transferee shall agree to be subject to all restrictions set forth in this
Agreement.
3.11 AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. Any provision of this Section 3
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 Holders of at least a
majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any amendment adversely affecting the rights or privileges of a
particular series of preferred stock will require the consent of a majority
in interest of the holders of such series so affected. Any amendment or
waiver effected in accordance with this Section 3.11 shall be binding upon
each Holder and the Company. By acceptance of any benefits under this
Section 3, Holders of Registrable Securities hereby agree to be bound by the
provisions hereunder.
3.12 LIMITATION ON SUBSEQUENT REGISTRATION RIGHTS. After the date of
this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of
the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding,
enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any
securities of the Company that would grant such holder registration rights
senior to or pari passu or otherwise conflict with those granted to the
Holders hereunder.
11.
3.13 "MARKET STAND-OFF" AGREEMENT. Each Holder hereby agrees that such
Holder shall not sell or otherwise transfer, dispose of, make any short sale
of, grant any option for the purpose of, or enter into any hedging or similar
transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, any common stock (or
other securities) of the Company held by such Holder (other than those
included in the registration) for a period specified by the representative of
the underwriters of common stock (or other securities) of the Company 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:
(i) such agreement shall apply only to the Company's Initial
Offering; and
(ii) all officers and directors of the Company and holders of
at least one percent (1%) of the Company's voting securities enter into
similar agreements.
Each Holder agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may
be reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriter which are
consistent with the foregoing or which are necessary to give further effect
thereto. The obligations described in this Section 3.13 shall not apply to a
registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on 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.
3.14 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 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; and
(c) So long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish
to such Holder forthwith upon 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 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 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.

that such Investor may disclose such proprietary or confidential information
(a) to any partner, subsidiary, parent, affiliate, attorney, accountant or
other professional advisor of such Investor for the purpose of evaluating its
investment in the Company as long as such partner, subsidiary or parent is
advised of the confidentiality provisions of this Section 4.4, (b) in any
statement or testimony pursuant to a subpoena or order by any court,
governmental body or other agency asserting jurisdiction over any Investor or
upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority having
jurisdiction over any Investor or as may otherwise be required by law
(provided that such Investor shall give the Company prior notice of the

subpoena, order or law), and (c) as may be required, to any rating agency
that rates the financial condition or claims paying ability of Allstate

outstanding and subject to the approval of the Board of Directors, the
Company will use its best efforts to obtain and maintain in full force and
effect term life insurance in an amount to be determined by the Board of

Company reserves the right not to provide information and to exclude such

4.17 BOARD AND OBSERVER COMPENSATION. The Company shall reimburse the
reasonable travel and out-of-pocket expenses of each Board member and

first offer to purchase its pro rata share of all Equity Securities, as
defined below, that the Company may, from time to time, propose to sell and
issue after the date of this Agreement, other than the Equity Securities
excluded by Section 5.6 hereof. Each Investor's pro rata share is equal to
the ratio of (a) the number of shares of the Company's common stock
(including all shares of common stock issued or issuable upon conversion of
16.
the Shares) which such Investor is deemed to hold immediately prior to the
issuance of such Equity Securities to (b) the total number of shares of the
Company's outstanding common stock (including all shares of common stock
issued or issuable upon conversion of the Shares or upon the exercise of any
outstanding warrants or options) immediately prior to the issuance of the
Equity Securities. The term "EQUITY SECURITIES" shall mean (i) any common
stock, preferred stock or other security of the Company, (ii) any security
convertible, with or without consideration, into any common stock, preferred
stock or other security (including any option to purchase such a convertible
security), (iii) any security carrying any warrant or right to subscribe to
or purchase any common stock, preferred stock or other security or (iv) any
such warrant or right.
5.2 EXERCISE OF RIGHTS. If the Company proposes to issue any Equity
Securities, it shall give each Major Investor written notice of its
intention, describing the Equity Securities, the price and the terms and
conditions upon which the Company proposes to issue the same. Each Major
Investor shall have twenty (20) days from the giving of such notice to agree
to purchase its pro rata share of the Equity Securities for the cash
equivalent price and upon the terms and conditions specified in the notice by
giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity of
Equity Securities to be purchased. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
shall not be required to offer or sell such Equity Securities to any Investor
who would cause the Company to be in violation of applicable federal or state
securities laws by virtue of such offer or sale through no fault of the
Company.
5.3 ISSUANCE OF EQUITY SECURITIES TO OTHER PERSONS. If not all of the
Major Investors elect to purchase their pro rata share of the Equity
Securities, then the Company shall promptly notify in writing the Major
Investors who do so elect and shall offer such Major Investors the right to

grant by the Company of such rights or agreements;
(c) any Equity Securities issued for consideration other than cash
pursuant to a merger, consolidation, acquisition or similar business
combination unanimously approved by the Board of Directors;
