Registration Rights
2.1. Demand Registration. (a) At any time after the date
hereof, upon the written request, from time to time, of any Lender, the Company
will use its best efforts to effect expeditiously the registration under the
Securities Act of all Warrant Shares requested to be registered; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect more than one

(b) A request pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall state the
number of Warrant Shares requested to be registered and the intended method of

2.1 or, if the provisions of the preceding sentence shall be applicable to such
request, promptly upon receipt of notice that the requesting holder wishes to
maintain its request, the Company will send a notice to all other holders of
Warrants and Warrant Shares, together with a copy of the request and, if the
provisions of the preceding sentence shall be applicable to such request, notice
of such public offering. Such other holders may elect to participate in the
registration by notice to the Company given within 30 days following the date of
the Company's notice of request for registration.
(c) In addition, (i) if the Company has issued and sold to
the public, pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act,
any of its securities in an underwritten offering within ninety (90) days prior
to the date of its receipt of a request for registration pursuant to this
Section 2.1 and the Company's managing underwriter has advised the Company in
writing that the registration of Warrant Shares would materially adversely
affect the market for the Common Stock, or (ii) if the Company (A) is in
possession of material non-public information involving the Company in
connection with a material reorganization, merger, consolidation, acquisition of
securities or assets or disposition of securities or assets, (B) determines on
the advice of counsel that disclosure of such information would be required in a
registration statement, and (C) determines in good faith that disclosure of such
non-public information would have a material adverse effect on the Company and
its stockholders, the Company shall have the right, which may not be exercised
more than once in a twelve month period, to delay the requested registration of
Warrant Shares for, in the case of clause (i) above, up to ninety (90) days
after the effective date of the Company's earlier registration statement or such
shorter period as may be acceptable to the managing underwriter, or, in the case
of clause (ii) above, up to ninety (90) days after the date on which such
request was made.

2.2. Incidental Registration. If at any time after the date of
issue of the Warrants the Company proposes to register any securities under the
Securities Act for sale to the public, the Company shall, not less than 30 nor
more than 90 days prior to the proposed date of filing a registration statement
under the Securities Act, give written notice to all holders of Warrants and
Warrant Shares of its intention to do so. Upon the written request of any holder
of Warrants or Warrant Shares given within 30 days after transmittal by the
Company of such notice, the Company will use its best efforts to cause Warrant
Shares requested to be registered to be so registered under the Securities Act.
A request pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall state the number of Warrant Shares
requested to be registered and the intended method of disposition thereof. The
rights granted in this Section 2.2 shall apply in each case where the Company
proposes to register securities regardless of whether such rights may have been
exercised previously. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
Company will not be obligated or required to include any Warrant Shares in any
registration effected on Form S-4; on Form S-8 to implement an employee benefit
plan (including any option plan) or on any successor forms.
2.3. Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is
required by the provisions of this Article II to use its reasonable best efforts
to effect the registration of any securities under the Securities Act, the
Company will as expeditiously as possible:

remain effective for a period of time required for the disposition of
such securities by the holders thereof;

other disposition of all securities covered by such registration
statement whenever the seller or sellers of such securities shall
desire to sell or otherwise dispose of the same;
(c) furnish to each seller and to each duly authorized
underwriter of each seller such number of authorized copies of a

facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the securities owned
by such seller;
(d) use its best efforts to register or qualify the securities
covered by such registration statement under such securities or blue
sky laws of such jurisdictions as each seller shall request, and do any
and all other acts and things which may be necessary under such
securities or blue sky laws to enable such seller to consummate the
3
4
public sale or other disposition in such jurisdictions of the
securities to be sold by such seller, except that the Company shall not
for any such purpose be required to qualify to do business as a foreign
corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it is not qualified or to file
any general consent to service of process;
(e) before filing the registration statement or prospectus or
amendments or supplements thereto, furnish to counsel selected by the

respect to such securities becomes effective, (1) an opinion, dated
such date, of the independent counsel representing the Company for the
purposes of such registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any,
and if such securities are not being sold through underwriters, then to
the sellers, stating that such registration statement has become
effective under the Securities Act and that (i) to the best knowledge
of such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness thereof has
been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or
are pending or contemplated under the Securities Act, (ii) the
registration statement, the related prospectus, and each amendment or
supplement thereto comply as to form in all material respects with the
requirements of the Securities Act and the applicable rules and

any amendment or supplement thereto, of all legal matters and contacts
and other legal documents or instruments are accurate and fairly
present the information required to be shown, and such counsel does not
know of any legal or governmental proceedings, pending or contemplated,
required to be described in the registration statement or prospectus,
or any amendment or supplement thereto, which are not described as
required, nor of any contracts or documents or instruments of a
character required to be described in the registration statement or
prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or to be filed as
exhibits to the registration statement, which are not described and
filed or incorporated by reference as required; such counsel shall also

accountants, the financial statements and other financial data of the
Company included in the registration statement or the prospectus, or
any amendment or supplement thereto, comply as to form in all material
respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities
Act. Such opinion of counsel shall additionally cover such other legal
matters with respect to the registration in respect of which such
opinion is being given as sellers may reasonably request. Such letter
from the independent certified public accountants shall additionally
cover such other financial matters (including information as to the
period ending not more than 5 business days prior to the date of such
letter) with respect to the registration in respect of which such
letter is being given as the holders holding a majority of the Warrant
Shares being so registered may reasonably request;
(g) enter into customary agreements (including an underwriting
agreement in customary form) and take such other actions as are
reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition
of such securities; and
(h) otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all
applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available

Statement, an earnings statement covering the period of at least 12
months beginning with the first full month after the effective date of
such registration statement, which earnings statements shall satisfy
the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

incurred in effecting the registrations provided for in this Article II,
including without limitation all registration and filing fees (including all

audits incident to or required by any such registration and expenses of
complying with the securities or blue sky laws of any jurisdictions pursuant to
Subsection 2.3(d) hereof, shall be paid by the Company, and the Company shall
pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the holders of
Warrant Shares for performance of the normal and customary functions of counsel
for selling shareholders in each such registration.
2.5. Marketing Restrictions. (a) If (i) any holder of Warrants or
Warrant Shares wishes to register any Warrant Shares in a registration made
pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof, (ii) the offering proposed to be made by such
holder or holders is to be an underwritten public offering, (iii) the Company or
one or more holders of securities other than Warrants or Warrant Shares to whom
the Company has granted registration rights, wish to register securities in such
5
6
registration and (iv) the managing underwriters of such public offering furnish
a written opinion that the total amount of securities to be included in such
offering would exceed the maximum amount of securities (as specified in such
opinion) which can be marketed at a price reasonably related to the then current
market value of such securities and without materially and adversely affecting
such offering; then the rights of holders of Warrants and Warrant Shares, the
Company and the holders of other securities with registration rights to
participate in such offering shall be in the following order of priority:
First: The holders of Warrants and Warrant Shares requesting
registration of Warrant Shares shall be entitled to participate in
proportion to the number of Warrant Shares held by each such holder if,
pursuant to clause (iv) above, the total amount of securities to be
included in the offering will be less than the number of Warrant Shares
that all of such holders shall request be registered, but with further
pro rata allocations in the event any such holder has requested
registration of fewer Warrant Shares than such holder is entitled to
have registered; and then
Second: The Company and all holders of other securities having
the right to include such securities in such registration shall be
entitled to participate in accordance with the relative priorities, if
any, as shall exist among them and the Company;
and no securities (issued or unissued) other than those registered and included
in the underwritten offering shall be offered for sale or other disposition by
the Company or any other person (unless such person has already entered into a
registration rights agreement with the Company prior to the date hereof with
which this restriction would conflict) in a transaction which would require
registration under the Securities Act (including any additional offering which
is to be registered pursuant to Section 2.1) until the expiration of 90 days
after the effective date of the registration statement requested pursuant to
this Article II or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the holders of
Warrant Shares participating in such underwritten offering.
(b) If (i) any holder of Warrants or Warrant Shares requests
registration of Warrant Shares under Section 2.2, (ii) the offering proposed to
be made is to be an underwritten public offering and (iii) the managing
underwriters of such public offering furnish a written opinion that the total
amount of securities to be included in such offering would exceed the maximum
amount of securities (as specified in such opinion) which can be marketed at a
price reasonably related to the then current market value of such securities and
without materially and adversely affecting such offering; then the rights of the
Company and the holders of Warrants, Warrant Shares and other securities having
the right to include such securities in such registration to participate in such
offering shall be in the following order of priority:
6
7
First: If such registration shall have been proposed by the
Company, the Company shall be entitled to participate to the extent
requested by it; or if such registration shall have been requested by
the holders of other securities pursuant to a right granted by the
Company to request such registration, the Person or Persons requesting
such registration shall be entitled to participate in accordance with
the relative priorities, if any, as shall exist among them; or if such
registration shall have been requested by a Person or Persons other
than holders of other securities pursuant to a right to request such
registration, such Person or Persons shall be entitled to participate
pro rata among themselves in accordance with the number of securities
held by each such Person with further pro rata allocations to the
extent any such Person has requested registration of less securities
than such Person is entitled to have registered; and then
Second: The holders of Warrants and Warrant Shares, together
with the holders of Common Stock requesting registration thereof
pursuant to a right granted by the Company to request such
registration, shall be entitled to participate pro rata among
themselves in accordance with the number of Warrant Shares or shares of
Common Stock, as the case may be, held by each such holder with further
pro rata allocations to the extent any such holder has requested
registration of fewer Warrant Shares or shares of Common Stock, as the
case may be, then such holder is entitled to have registered; and then
Third: If such registration shall have been requested by a
Person or Persons other than the Company, the Company and the holders
of securities (other than Warrants and Warrant Shares) having the right
to include such securities in such registration shall be entitled to
include securities in such registration in accordance with the relative
priorities, if any, as shall exist among them; or if such registration
shall have been requested by the Company, the holders of securities
other than Warrants, Warrant Shares or securities having the right to
include such securities in such registration shall have the right to
participate in accordance with the relative priorities as shall exist
among them;
and no securities (issued or unissued) other than those registered and included
in the underwritten offering shall be offered for sale or other disposition in a
transaction which would require registration under the Securities Act (including
any additional offering which is to be registered pursuant to Section 2.1) until
the expiration of 90 days after the effective date of the registration statement
in which Warrant Shares were included pursuant to Section 2.2 or such shorter
period as may be acceptable to the holders of Warrant Shares who may be
participating in such offering.
2.6. Termination of Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Article II, the rights to registration shall terminate as to
any particular Warrant Shares when (a) such Warrant Shares shall have been
7
8
effectively registered under the Securities Act or Registration Laws and sold by
the holder thereof in accordance with such registration or (b) written opinions,
to the effect that such Warrant Shares may be sold without registration under
the Securities Act or applicable state law and without restriction as to the
volume and timing of such sales, shall have been received from counsel for both
the Company and the holders thereof.
2.7. Compliance with Rule 144. At the request of any holder of
Warrants or Warrant Shares who proposes to sell Warrant Shares in compliance
with Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or any similar Rule,
assuming that at such time the provisions of such Rule are applicable to such
holder and, in the event such holder is or could be deemed to be an "affiliate"
of the Company, the Company is then required to file reports under Section 13 or
15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall (a) forthwith furnish to such
holder a written statement as to its compliance with the filing requirements of
the Securities and Exchange Commission as set forth in such Rule as such Rule
may be amended from time to time and (b) make such additional filings of reports
with the Securities and Exchange Commission as will enable the holders to make
sales of Warrant Shares pursuant to such Rule.
2.8. Company's Indemnification. In the event of any
registration under the Securities Act of any Warrant Shares pursuant to this
Article II, the Company hereby agrees to execute an agreement with any
underwriter participating in the offering thereof containing such underwriter's
standard form representations and indemnification provisions and to indemnify
and hold harmless each holder disposing of Warrant Shares, each Person, if any,
who controls such holder within the meaning of the Securities Act and each other
Person (including each underwriter) who participates in the offering of Warrant
Shares, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to
which such holder, controlling person or participating person may become subject
under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages
or liabilities (or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based
upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact
contained in any registration statement under which the Warrant Shares are
registered under the Securities Act, in any preliminary prospectus or final
prospectus contained therein, or in any amendment or supplement 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 each such holder,
controlling person and participating person for any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such loss,
claim, damage, liability or proceeding; provided, however, that the Company will
not be liable in any case to any such holder, controlling person or
participating person to the extent that any loss, claim, damage or liability
arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission made in a registration statement, preliminary or
final prospectus or amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity
8
9
with written information furnished to the Company by an instrument duly executed
by such holder or controlling or participating person, as the case may be,
specifically for use in the preparation thereof.
2.9. Indemnification by Holder. As a condition of the
Company's obligation under this Article II to effect any registration under the
Securities Act, there shall be delivered to the Company an agreement or
agreements duly executed by each holder for whom Warrant Shares are to be so
registered, whereby such holder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, each person referred to in clause (1), (2) or (3) of Section 11(a) of
the Securities Act in respect of the registration statement and each other
person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities
Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to
which the Company, such person or such other controlling person may become
subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, but only to the extent that the
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or proceedings in respect thereof) arise
out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any
material fact contained in the registration statement under which the Warrant
Shares are to be registered under the Securities Act, in any preliminary
prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or in any amendment or
supplement 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, which, in each case, is
made in or omitted from the registration statement, preliminary or final
prospectus or amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished to the Company by an instrument duly executed by
such holder specifically for use in the preparation thereof; provided, however,
that the indemnification obligations of each such holder shall be limited to the
total consideration received by such holder from the sale of Warrant Shares
pursuant to such registration.
2.10. If the indemnification provided for in Section 2.8 or
2.9 from the indemnifying party is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder
in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to
therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified
party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party
as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying
party and indemnified parties in connection with the actions which resulted in
such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party
and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has
been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or
indemnified parties, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid
or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities
and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other
fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any
investigation or proceeding.
9
10
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.10 were determined by pro
rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account
of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph. 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.
2.11. Notification of and Participation in Actions. Promptly
after receipt by an indemnified party under this Article II of notice of
commencement of any action, the indemnified party will, if a claim in respect
thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Article II,
notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, but the omission so
to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability unless
the indemnifying party can demonstrate that it has actually been prejudiced
thereby and will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any
indemnified party otherwise than under this Article II. In case any such action
is brought against the holder of any Warrant Shares and it notifies an
indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be
entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any
other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with
counsel satisfactory to said holder of Warrant Shares. In case any such action
is brought against the Company and it notifies an indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in
and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to
the Company, and, after notice from the indemnifying party to the Company of its
election to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be
liable to the Company under this Article II for any legal or other expenses
subsequently incurred by the Company, in connection with the defense thereof
other than reasonable costs of investigation. 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. The reimbursement required by this
Section 2.11 shall be made by periodic payments during the course of the
investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expenses incurred.

4.4. Waivers; Amendments. No failure or delay of any holder of
Warrants or Warrant Shares in exercising any power or right hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce
such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of such holder are
