thereto, (ii) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted

the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), (iii)
------------
fairly present the consolidated financial condition, results of operations and
cash flows of the Company as of the respective dates thereof and for the periods

otherwise) other than liabilities and obligations that, individually and in the
aggregate, are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the
Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole or adversely affect the Company's
ability to perform its obligations hereunder, or any other instrument or
document contemplated hereby. The Company is eligible to use Form S-3 to effect
the registration under the Securities Act (as defined below) of outstanding
shares of its Common Stock for resale.
3.6 Governmental Consents. No consent, approval, order or
---------------------
authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, declaration or
filing with, any governmental authority is required on the part of the Company
in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the offer,
issuance, sale and delivery of the Shares as contemplated by this Agreement,
except such filings as shall have been made prior to and shall be effective on
and as of the Closing. Based on the representations made by the Purchasers in
Section 4 of this Agreement, the offer and sale of the Shares to the Purchasers
will be in compliance with applicable Federal and state securities laws.

-------------------------------------
Memorandum, there has not been, occurred or arisen any change in, or any event
(including any damage, destruction or loss whether or not covered by insurance),

connection with the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries as presently
conducted (including in connection with services provided by the Company and its
Subsidiaries to third parties). To the Company's knowledge, there is no
proceeding challenging the validity of any of the foregoing rights that,
individually or in the aggregate, is reasonably likely to have a material
adverse effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. To the
best of the Company's knowledge, there are no infringements of any proprietary
or intellectual property rights owned by or licensed by or to the Company or any

7.1 Registration Rights. The Company shall utilize reasonable
-------------------
efforts to cause, within forty five (45) days following the Closing Date, a
registration statement on Form S-3 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities
---------- ----------
Act") or an existing registration statement on Form S-3 (the "Registration
--- ------------
Statement") to be amended for the purpose of registering the Shares, any shares
---------
of Common Stock ("Warrant Shares") issued upon exercise of the Common Stock
--------------
Purchase Warrant (the "Warrant") to be distributed to X. Xxxxxxxxxx & Co.,
-------
Incorporated ("Flomenhaft") upon the Closing and the shares of Common Stock, if
----------
any, issued pursuant to the last two sentences of this Section 7.1 (the
"Additional Shares"). Flomenhaft shall be a direct and intended beneficiary of
------------------
the covenants and provisions of this Article 7 with respect to the Warrant
Shares, for resale on a continuous basis from time to time by a Holder thereof.
For purposes of this Article 7, a person is deemed to be a "Holder" of Shares or
Warrant
-7-
Shares whenever such person or entity is the record owner of Shares or Warrant
Shares and the term "Shares" shall include any Additional Shares. Thereafter,
the Company will use commercially reasonable best efforts to have the
Registration Statement become effective and cause the Shares and Warrant Shares
to be registered under the Securities Act, and registered, qualified or exempted
under the state securities laws of such jurisdictions as any Holder reasonably
requests, as soon as is reasonably practicable. If the Company fails to file
such Registration Statement within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date,
subject to compliance by the Company with any applicable stockholder approval
requirements imposed by law or any securities exchange or listing organization
then the Company shall issue and deliver (i) to each of the Purchasers a number
of shares of Common Stock equal to ten percent (10%) of the number of Shares
originally issued to such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) to
Flomenhaft a number of warrants equal to ten percent (10%) of the number of
warrants originally issued to Flomenhaft pursuant to this Agreement and the
Placement Agent Agreement (the "Placement Agent Agreement"), dated as of April
-------------------------
21, 1998, by and between the Company and Flomenhaft. If the Company fails to
file the Registration Statement within 120 days of the Closing Date, and within
each subsequent sixty (60) day period thereafter, subject to compliance by the
Company with any applicable stockholder approval requirements imposed by law or
any securities exchange or listing organization then the Company shall issue and
deliver upon the expiration of each such period (y) to each of the Purchasers a
number of shares of Common Stock equal to ten percent (10%) of the number of
Shares originally purchased by such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and (z)
to Flomenhaft a number of warrants equal to ten percent (10%) of the number of
warrants originally issued to Flomenhaft pursuant to this Agreement and the
Placement Agent Agreement.
7.2 Expenses of Registration. All expenses incident to the Company's
------------------------
performance of or compliance with this Section 7, including, without limitation,
all registration and filing fees (including all expenses incident to filing with
Nasdaq or any other exchange), fees and expenses of complying with securities
and blue sky laws, printing and copying expenses, fees and expenses of the
Company's counsel and accountants, and the fees and disbursements of all
independent public accountants, and the fees and disbursements of all
independent public accountants (including the expenses of any audit and/or "cold
comfort" letter) shall be paid by the Company.
7.3 Furnishing of Documents. The Company shall furnish to the
-----------------------
Holders such reasonable number of copies of the Registration Statement, such
prospectuses as are contained in the Registration Statement and such other
documents as the Holders may reasonable request in order to facilitate the
offering of the Shares.
7.4 Amendments and Supplements. The Company shall prepare and
--------------------------
promptly file with the Commission, and promptly notify the Holders of the filing
of
-8-
such amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or prospectuses
contained therein, as may be necessary to correct any statements or omissions
if, at the time when a prospectus relating to the Shares or Warrants are
required to be delivered under the Securities Act, any event shall have occurred
as a result of which any such prospectus or any other prospectus as then in
effect would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Company shall
also advise the Holders promptly after it shall receive notice of the issuance
of any stop order by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for
that purpose and promptly use its reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of
any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if such stop order should be issued.
If, after a Registration Statement becomes effective, the Holders desire that
the Registration Statement be amended or the Company advises the Holders that
the Company considers it appropriate that the Registration Statement (and all
other registration statements of the Company then effective and outstanding) be
amended, the Holders shall suspend any further sales of the Shares until the
Company advises the Holders that the Registration Statement has been amended.
7.5 Duration. The Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the
--------
Registration Statement until such time as the Company reasonably determines that
the Holders will be eligible to sell all of the Shares then owned by the Holders
without the need for continued registration of the shares, in three month
periods immediately preceding the termination of the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement. The Company's obligations contained in Sections 7.2,
7.3 and 7.4 shall terminate on the second anniversary of the Closing Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the Company may delay filing a Registration
Statement, and may withhold efforts to cause the Registration Statement to
become effective, if the Board of Directors of the Company in its good faith
judgment, determines that any registration of Shares should not be made or
continued because it would materially interfere with any material financing,
acquisition, corporate reorganization or merger or other material transaction or
activity involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries (a "Valid Business
--------------
Reason"), (b) the Company may postpone filing a Registration Statement until
------
such Valid Business Reason no longer exists, but in no event for more than sixty
(60) days and (c) in case a Registration Statement has been filed, the Company
may cause such Registration Statement to be withdrawn and its effectiveness
terminated or may postpone amending or supplementing such Registration Statement
until such Valid Business Reason no longer exists, but in no event for more than
sixty (60) days (such period of postponement or withdrawal under sub clause (b)
or (c) above, the "Postponement Period"); and the Company shall give written
-------------------
notice of its determination to postpone or withdraw a Registration Statement and
of the fact that the Valid Business Reason for such postponement or withdrawal
no longer exists, in each case promptly after the
-9-
occurrence thereof; provided, however, the Company shall not be permitted to
postpone or withdraw a Registration Statement within seventy five (75) days
after the expiration of any Postponement Period. The Holder agree that, upon
receipt of any notice from the Company that the Company has determined to
postpone or withdraw any Registration Statement, the Holder will discontinue any
disposition of Shares pursuant to such Registration Statement and, if so
directed by the Company, will deliver to the Company (at the Company's expense)
all copies, other than permanent file copies, then in such Holder's possession
of the prospectus covering such Shares that was in effect at the time of receipt
of such notice. If the Company shall give any notice of withdrawal or
postponement of a registration statement, the Company shall, at such time as the
Valid Business Reason that caused such withdrawal or postponement no longer
exists (but in no event later than three months after the date of the
postponement or withdrawal), use its reasonable efforts to effect the
registration under the Securities Act of Shares covered by the withdrawn or
postponed registration statement in accordance with Section 7.1.
7.6 Further Information. If the Shares owned by a Holder are
-------------------
included in any registration, such Holder shall furnish the Company such
information regarding itself as the Company may reasonably request and as shall
be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance
referred to in this Agreement.
7.7 Indemnification.
---------------
(i) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the
Holders and each person, if any, who controls a Holder within the meaning of the
Securities Act, from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, costs
and expenses to which the Holders or any such controlling person may become
subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities, costs or expenses are caused by any untrue statement of
any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any prospectus
contained therein or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or
based upon the omission to state therein 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; provided, however,
that, the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any
such loss, claim, damage, liability, cost or expense arises out of or is based
upon an untrue statement or omission so made in conformity with information
furnished by or on behalf of any Holder or such controlling person in writing
specifically for use in the preparation thereof.
(ii) Each of the Holders will indemnify and hold harmless
the Company and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning
of the Securities Act, from and against any and all losses, damages,
liabilities, costs and
-10-
expenses to which the Buyer or any such controlling person may become subject
under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, damages,
liabilities, costs or expenses are caused by any untrue statement of any
material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any prospectus contained
therein or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based
upon the omission to state therein 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, to the extent and only to the extent that
such untrue statement or omission was so made in reliance upon and in strict
conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of such Holder
specifically for use in the preparation thereof.

been furnished with an opinion of legal counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, to the effect that such sale or transfer is exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act.

counsel shall be required for (i) a transfer by a Purchaser which is a
partnership to a partner of such partnership or a retired partner of such
partnership who retires after the date hereof, or to the estate of any such
partner or retired partner, if the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to
the terms of this Section 8 to the same extent as if he were an original
Purchaser hereunder, or (ii) a transfer made in accordance with Rule 144 under
the Securities Act.
