from World Wireless Communications, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the

certain assets of the Borrower pursuant to a Pledge/Security Agreement of

the Pledge Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth
herein.
2. APPOINTMENT. Sterling Technology Partners, LLC, is hereby
appointed as the Noteholders' "Pledgee Representative," as defined and

to the Notes and/or the Pledge Agreement. This appointment is coupled with
an interest and is irrevocable.
3. AUTHORITY. The Pledgee Representative shall have the following
powers and authority:
a. all rights, powers and authority as expressly set forth in the
Pledge Agreement;

determine;

relating to the Note and/or the Pledge Agreement, and the enforcement

Pledge Agreement, including reasonably attorney fees, which reimbursements
may be offset against amounts distributable to the Noteholders. Each
Noteholder, severally but not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
the Pledgee Representative from any and all actions taken under this
Agreement, provided that the Pledgee Representative is not acting
intentionally, fraudulently or with gross negligence. Any indemnification

the Offering, the Noteholders will collectively own warrants to purchase up
to 4,750,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par value per share, of the
Corporation (shares of such common stock, together with share of

to as the "Shares" and collectively as the "Stock") at an exercise price of
$0.25 per share exercisable during a period of five years from the date of
the Effective Date (the "Warrants");
-1-
WHEREAS, upon the Effective Date, the Corporation and the Noteholders
desire to provide for certain registration rights for the Stock of the
Corporation or any interest therein now or hereafter owned by the
Noteholders;
NOW, THEREFORE, effective upon the Effective Date, in consideration
of the mutual covenants and conditions herein contained, each of the
parties hereby agrees as follows:
1. Piggyback and Demand Registration Rights.
1.1 (a) If the Corporation shall propose to file a registration
statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), at any time during the 24-month period after the Effective Date,
either on its own behalf or that of any of its shareholders for an offering
of shares of the capital stock of the Corporation (including shares to be
issued pursuant to the exercise of any warrants, including the Warrants)
for cash or securities, the Corporation shall give written notice
as promptly as possible of such proposed registration to each Noteholder
and shall use reasonable efforts to include such number or amount of shares
of the Stock owned by such Noteholders (including shares to be issued
pursuant to the exercise of any warrants, including the Warrants) (each a
"Seller" or "Registering Noteholder" and collectively, the "Sellers" or
"Registering Noteholders") in such registration statement as such Seller or
Sellers shall request within 10 days after receipt of such notice from the
Corporation, provided, that (A) each Seller furnishes the Company with a
written notice of its irrevocable exercise of the Warrants in whole or in
part within 10 days after the receipt of such notice from the Corporation,
(B) if shares of the Stock are being offered by the Corporation in an
underwritten offering, any shares of the Stock proposed to be included in
the registration statement on behalf of such Seller(s) shall be included in
the underwriting offering on the same terms and conditions as the Stock
being offered by the Corporation, and (C) each Seller shall be entitled to
include such number of shares of the Stock owned by such Seller in such
registration statement, one time only during the applicable period set
forth herein, so that the proportion of shares of the Stock of each Seller
to be included in such registration statement to the total number of shares
of the Stock owned by him is equal to the proportion that the number of
shares of the Stock of all Sellers to be included in such registration
statement bears to the total number of shares of the Stock owned by all
Sellers (except that each Seller shall have the right not to exercise such
piggyback registration right set forth herein once, in which case such
Seller shall have the right set forth in this Section 1.1 with respect to
the next succeeding registration statement described in this Section 1.1
proposed to be filed by the Corporation during such 24-month period); and
provided further, that (i) the Corporation shall not be required to include
such number or amount of shares owned by such Seller(s) in any such
registration statement if it relates solely to securities of the
Corporation to be issued pursuant to a stock option or other employee
benefit plan, (ii) the Corporation may, as to an offering of securities of
the Corporation by the Corporation, withdraw such registration statement at
its sole discretion and without the consent of any Seller and abandon such
proposed offering and (iii) the Corporation shall not be required to
include such number of shares of the Stock owned by such Seller in such
registration statement if the Corporation is advised in writing by its
underwriter or investment banking firm that it reasonably believes that the
inclusion of such Seller's shares would have an adverse effect on the
offering, provided that if such limitation is imposed, the effects of such
limitation shall be allocated among the Sellers pro rata in proportion to
the number of shares of the Stock as to which such Sellers have requested
inclusion therein.
-2-
(b) A registration filed pursuant to this Section 1.1(a) shall not
be deemed to have been effected unless the registration statement related
thereto (i) has become effective under the Securities Act and (ii) has
remained effective for a period of at least nine months (or such shorter
period of time in which all of the Stock registered thereunder has actually
been sold thereunder); provided, however, that if, after any registration
statement filed pursuant to Section 1.1(a) becomes effective and prior to
the time the registration statement has been effective for a period of at
least nine months, such registration statement is interfered with by any
stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or
other governmental agency or court solely due to actions or omissions to
act of the Corporation, such registration statement shall not be considered
one of the registrations applicable pursuant to Section 1.1(a).
1.2 (a) (i) If the Corporation fails to prepare and file a
registration statement under Section 1.1 hereof within 24 months after the
Effective Date which has become effective under the Securities Act and has
remained effective for a period of at least six months (or such shorter
period of time in which shares registered thereunder have been sold
thereunder), then in the event that the Noteholders owning in the aggregate
at least $1,500,000 original principal amount of the Notes acting jointly
desire to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of at least 33% of their
Shares pursuant to an offering registered under the Securities Act, such
Noteholder or Noteholders shall have the right, once during such three-year
period commencing with the expiration of 24 months after the Effective Date and
continuing until the expiration of 60 months after the Effective
Date, to deliver a notice to the Corporation (the "Registration
Notice") on behalf of all of the Noteholders (A) specifying the
number of shares proposed to be sold or otherwise transferred by
all the Noteholders (collectively the "Registration Shares")
(which shall not be less than 1,082,250 Shares (the "Minimum
Number")), (B) describing the proposed manner of sale or other
transfer thereof and (C) requesting the registration of the
Registration Shares under the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") pursuant to
the Securities Act, provided that each Noteholder furnishes the
Corporation with a written notice of its irrevocable exercise of
the Warrants in at least the amount of the Minimum Number
simultaneously with its delivery of the demand registration notice
set forth herein. As promptly as practicable following its
receipt of a Registration Notice, the Corporation shall prepare
and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect
to the Registration Shares pursuant to the rules and regulations
of the Commission and use its reasonable best efforts to effect
the registration under the Securities Act of any Registration
Shares requested to be so registered by the Noteholder or
Noteholders to the extent required to permit the sale or other
transfer of the Registration Shares in the manner described in the
Registration Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing demand (but
subject to the penultimate sentence of Section 1.2 (b)), the Corporation
shall not be obligated to effect more than one registration pursuant to this
Section 1.2(a) using the then applicable registration forms of the
Commission, and the Noteholder or Noteholders shall not be
entitled to request registration of the Registration Shares more
than once under Section 1.2. A registration requested pursuant to
this Section 1.2(a) shall not be deemed to have been effected
unless the registration statement related thereto (i) has become
effective under the Securities Act and (ii) has remained effective
for a period of at least nine months (or such shorter period of
time in which all Registration Shares registered thereunder have
actually been sold thereunder); provided, however, that if, after
any registration statement requested pursuant to this Section
1.2(a) becomes effective and prior to the time the registration
statement has been effective for a period of at least nine months,
such registration statement is interfered with by any stop order,
injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or
other governmental agency or court solely due to actions or
omissions to act of the Corporation, such registration statement
shall not be considered one of the registrations which may be
requested pursuant to this Section 1.2(a).
-3-
(ii) Notwithstanding anything contained in this
Section 1.2 to the contrary, in the event that the Corporation
defaults in the payment of principal or interest on any Note at
the maturity date of any Note, then the Noteholders owning in the
aggregate at least $1,500,000 original principal amount of the
Notes shall have the right to exercise their demand registration
right set forth in Section 1.2(a)(i) hereof, at their option,
within 60 days after the occurrence of such default by delivering
to the Corporation the written notice described in Section
1.2(a)(i) hereof.
(b) Delay or Suspension of Registration. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Section 1.2 to the contrary, if the
Corporation shall furnish to the Noteholder or Noteholders:
(i) a certificate signed by the President of the
Corporation stating that, in the good faith judgment of a
majority of the members of the entire Board of Directors of
the Corporation, it would adversely and materially affect the
Corporation's ability to enter into an agreement with respect
to, or to consummate, a bona fide material transaction to
which it is or would be a party, or the Corporation has a
plan to register Stock to be sold for its own account within
a 90-day period after the receipt of the demand request under
Section 1.2(a), for the Corporation to use its reasonable
best efforts to effect the registration of the Registration
Shares (following a demand therefor by the Noteholder or
Noteholders pursuant to Section 1.2(a)); or
(ii) both (A) a certificate signed by the President of
the Corporation stating that, in the good faith judgment of a
majority of the members of the entire Board of Directors of
the Corporation, a material fact exists which the Corporation
has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as
confidential and (B) an opinion of counsel to the Corporation
to the effect that the registration by the Corporation
(following a demand for registration by the Noteholder or
Noteholders pursuant to Section 1.2(a)) or the offer or sale
by the Noteholder or Noteholders of the Registration Shares
pursuant to an effective registration statement would require
disclosure of the material fact which is referenced in the
President's certificate required under Section 1.2(b)(ii)(A)
and which, in such counsel's opinion, is not otherwise
required to be disclosed, then the Corporation's obligations pursuant
to Section 1.2(a) with respect to any such demand for registration shall
be deferred or offers and sales of Registration Shares by the Noteholder
or Noteholders shall be suspended, as the case may be, until the
earliest of: (1) the date on which, as applicable (a) the
Corporation's use of reasonable best efforts to effect the
registration of the Registration Shares would no longer have such
a material adverse effect or (b) the material fact is disclosed to
the public or ceases to be material; (2) 135 days from the date of
receipt by the Noteholder or Noteholders of the materials referred
to in Section 1.2(b) (i) and (ii) above; and (3) such time as the
Corporation notifies the Noteholder or Noteholders that it has
resumed use of its reasonable best efforts to effect registration
of the Registration Shares or that offers and sales of
Registration Shares pursuant to an effective registration
statement may be resumed, as the case may be. If the Noteholder
or Noteholders receives the materials referred to in Section
1.2(b)(ii) above while a registration statement for the offer and
sale of the Registration Shares is in effect, the Noteholder or
Noteholders agree to terminate immediately any offer or sale of
Registration Shares. If offers and sales of the Registration
Shares are suspended and resumed following the effectiveness of a
registration statement within the 135-day period set forth in
clause (2) of the second preceding sentence, the six-month period
set forth in Section 1.2(a) shall be extended for a number of days
equal to the number of days for which offers and sales of
Registration Shares were suspended. If offers and sales of the
Registration Shares are suspended but not resumed within the
135-day period, the Corporation shall, at the request of the
Noteholder or Noteholders, withdraw such registration and the
Noteholder or Noteholders shall be entitled to one additional
demand registration right under this Section 1.2(a). A particular
material transaction to which the Corporation is or would be a
party or a particular material fact shall not give rise to more
than one deferral or suspension notice by the Corporation pursuant
to the provisions of this Section 1.2(b).

1.3 In connection with any registration or qualification
pursuant to the provisions of this Article I, all Sellers, and the
Corporation shall, except as prohibited under the blue sky or
securities laws of any jurisdiction under which a registration or
qualification is being effected, pay (pro rata based on the
relative number of shares included in such registration) all of
the fees and expenses, which shall not include fees and expenses
of legal counsel for any Seller and any underwriting or selling
discounts, fees, commissions or similar charges with respect to
the shares of Stock as to which registration is requested;
provided, however, that in the event the Corporation shall have
incurred out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the preparation
of any registration statement which shall be withdrawn prior to
its effective date at the request of a Seller, such Seller shall
promptly reimburse the Corporation for all out-of-pocket expenses
including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses,
accounting costs and all fees and expenses relating to blue sky
filings incurred by the Corporation in connection with such
preparation (including any filing thereof); and provided further,
however, that the Corporation shall not be required in the case of
any registration hereunder to make blue sky filings in more than
10 states.
1.4 (a) In each case of registration of shares of Stock
under the Securities Act pursuant to these registration
provisions, the Corporation shall unconditionally indemnify and
hold harmless each of the Sellers, each underwriter (as defined in
the Securities Act), and each person who controls any such
underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act
or Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
Sellers and each such underwriter, and each such person who
controls any such underwriter being referred to for purposes of
this Section 1.4, as an "Indemnified Person") from and against any
and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses arising
out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any registration
statement under which such shares of the Stock were registered
under the Securities Act, any prospectus or preliminary prospectus
contained therein or any amendment or supplement thereto
(including, in each case, any documents incorporated by reference
therein), or arising out of any omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses
arise out of any such untrue statement or omission or alleged
untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to
any of the Sellers or any underwriter and furnished to the
Corporation or the Registering Noteholder, as the case may be, in
writing by any of the Sellers or such underwriter expressly for
use therein; provided that the foregoing indemnification with
respect to a preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit
of any underwriter (or to the benefit of any person controlling
such underwriter) from whom the person asserting any such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses purchased shares of the
Stock to the extent such losses, claims, damages or liabilities
result from the fact that a copy of the final prospectus had not
been sent or given to such person at or prior to written
confirmation of the sale of such shares to such person.
-5-
(b) In each case of a registration of shares of the Stock
under the Securities Act pursuant to these registration
provisions, each of the Sellers participating in the registration,
severally and not jointly, shall unconditionally indemnify and
hold harmless the Corporation (and its directors and officers)
each underwriter and each person, if any, who controls the
Corporation or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15
of the Securities Act of Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from
the Corporation to the Sellers but only with reference to
information relating to such Seller and furnished to the
Corporation by such Seller for use in the registration statement,
any prospectus or preliminary prospectus contained therein or any
amendment or supplement thereto. Each Seller will use all
reasonable efforts to cause any underwriters of shares of Stock to
be sold by any of the Sellers to indemnify the Corporation on the
same terms as the Sellers agree to indemnify the Corporation or
the Registering Noteholder, as the case may be, but only with
reference to information furnished in writing by such underwriter
for use in the registration statement.
(c) In case any action or proceeding shall be brought
against or instituted which involves any Indemnified Person, such
Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the person against whom
such indemnity may be sought (the "Indemnifying Person") in
writing and the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the
Indemnified Person and any others the Indemnifying Person may
designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and
disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any
such action or proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the
right to obtain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such
counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless
(i) the Indemnifying Person has agreed to the retention of such
counsel at its expense or (ii) the named parties to any such
action or proceeding include both the Indemnifying Person and the
Indemnified Person, and the Indemnified Person has been advised by
counsel that there may be one or more defenses available to such
Indemnified Person which are different from or additional to those
available to the Indemnifying Person (in which case, if the
Indemnified Person notifies the Indemnifying Person that it wishes
to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying
Person, the Indemnifying Person shall not have the right to assume
the defense of such action or proceeding on behalf of such
Indemnified Person). It is understood that the Indemnifying Person
shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one
separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such similarly
situated Indemnified Persons. The Indemnifying Person shall not be
liable for any settlement of any action or proceeding effected
without its written consent.
-6-
(d) In the event the indemnifications provided for in this
Article V are unavailable or insufficient, then the Sellers shall
each contribute to the amount paid or payable as a result of such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities, actions and expenses in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect (A) the relative benefits
received by each Seller and (B) the relative fault of each Seller.
(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Article V to the
contrary, the Corporation shall not be liable to any Seller for
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising out of or
caused by (A) any reasonable delay (1) in filing or processing any
registration statement or any preliminary or final prospectus,
amendment or supplement thereto after the inclusion of such
Seller's Stock in such registration statement, or (2) in
requesting such registration statement be declared effective by
the Commission and (B) the failure of the Commission for any
reason to declare effective any registration statement.
