W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the
Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 29, 1997, between the Initial
Investor and the Company (the "Securities Purchase Agreement"), the Company has
agreed to issue and sell to the Initial Investor one or more 7% Convertible

$750,000 (collectively, the "Debentures"), which Debentures will be convertible
into shares of the common stock, $.01 par value (the "Common Stock"), of the
Company (the "Conversion Shares") upon the terms and subject to the conditions
of such Debentures; and
WHEREAS, to induce the Initial Investor to execute and deliver the
Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to provide certain
registration rights under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules
and regulations thereunder, or any similar successor statute (collectively, the
"Securities Act"), with respect to the Conversion Shares;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the
Initial Investor hereby agree as follows:
1. Definitions.
(a) As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the
following meanings:
(i) "Investor" means the Initial Investor and any permitted
transferee or assignee who agrees to become bound by the provisions of this
Agreement in accordance with Section 9 hereof.
(ii) "Register," "Registered," and "Registration" refer to a
registration effected by preparing and filing a Registration Statement or
Statements in compliance with the Securities
Act and pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any successor rule
providing for offering securities on a continuous basis ("Rule 415"), and the
declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such Registration Statement by the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
(iii) "Registrable Securities" means the Conversion Shares.
(iv) "Registration Statement" means a registration statement of the
Company under the Securities Act.
(v) "Potential Material Event" means any of the following: (a) the
possession by the Company of material information not ripe for disclosure in a
Registration Statement, which shall be evidenced by determination in good faith
by the Board of Directors of the Company that disclosure of such information in
the Registration Statement would be detrimental to the business
and affairs of the Company; or (b) any material engagement or activity by the
Company which would, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors
of the Company, be adversely affected by disclosure in a Registration Statement
at such time, which determination shall be accompanied by a good faith
determination by the Board of Directors of the Company that the Registration
Statement would be materially misleading absent the inclusion of such
information.
(b) Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein
shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Securities Purchase
Agreement.
2. Registration.
(a) Mandatory Registration. The Company shall prepare and file with
the SEC, no later than thirty (30) days following the Closing Date under the
Securities Purchase Agreement, either a Registration Statement on Form S-3
registering for resale by the Investor a sufficient number of shares of Common
Stock for the Initial Investors (or such lesser number as may be required by the
SEC, but in no event less than the number of shares into which the Debentures
would be convertible) or an amendment to any pending Company Registration
Statement on Form S-3, and the Company shall use its best efforts to have the
Registration Statement declared effective no later than 90 days after the
Closing Date. If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock into which the
Debentures may be converted exceeds the aggregate number of shares of Common
Stock then registered, the Company shall, within fifteen (15) business days
after receipt of a written notice from any Investor, either (i) amend the
Registration Statement filed by the Company pursuant to the preceding sentence,
if such Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the SEC at
that time, to register all shares of Common Stock into which the Debentures may
be converted, or (ii) if such Registration Statement has been declared effective
by the SEC at that time, file with the SEC an additional Registration Statement
on Form S-3 to register the shares of Common Stock into which the Debentures may
be converted that exceed the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock already
registered.
(b) Payments by the Company if Filing Delayed. If the Registration
Statement covering the Registrable Securities required to be filed by the
Company pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof is not filed with the SEC within thirty
(30) days following the Closing Date (the "Required Filing Date"), then the
Company will make payments to the Initial Investor in such amounts and at such
times as shall be determined pursuant to this Section 2(b). The amount to be
paid by the Company to the Initial Investor shall be equal to one percent (1%)
of the purchase price paid by the Initial Investor for all Debentures then
purchased and outstanding pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement per
month from the Required Filing Date to the first Computation Date and each
Computation Date thereafter until the Registration Statement is filed with the
SEC (the "First Periodic Amount"). The full First Periodic Amount shall be paid
by the Company in immediately available funds within five (5) business days
after each Computation Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amounts payable
by the Company pursuant to this provision shall not be payable to the extent any
delay in the filing of the Registration Statement occurs because of an act of,
or a failure to act or to act timely by the Initial Investor or its counsel, or
in the event all of the Registrable Securities may be sold pursuant to an
exemption under the Securities Act. As used in this Section 2(b) "Computation
Date" means the date which is thirty (30) days after the Required Filing Date,
and, if the Registration Statement required to be filed by the Company pursuant
to Section 2(a) is not then filed, (30) days after the previous Computation Date
(pro rated for partial periods) until such Registration Statement is so filed.
(c) Payments by the Company if Effectiveness Delayed. If the
Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities required to be filed
by the Company pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof is not effective by ninety (90)
days following the Closing Date (the "Required
2
Effective Date") (except as provided by the last sentence of Section 2(a)), then
the Company will make payments to the Initial Investor in such amounts and at
such times as shall be determined pursuant to this Section 2(c). The amount to
be paid by the Company to the Initial Investor shall be equal to one half of one
percent of the purchase price paid by the Initial Investor for all Debentures
then purchased and outstanding pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement per
week from the Required Effective Date to the first Computation Date and each
Computation Date thereafter until the Registration Statement is declared
effective by the SEC (the "Periodic Amount"). The full Periodic Amount shall be
paid by the Company in immediately available funds within five (5) business days
after each Computation Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amounts payable
by the Company pursuant to this provision shall not be payable to the extent any
delay in the effectiveness of the Registration Statement occurs because of an
act of, or a failure to act or to act timely by the Initial Investor or its
counsel, or in the event all of the Registrable Securities may be sold pursuant
to Rule 144 or another available exemption under the Securities Act. As used in
this Section 2(c) "Computation Date" means the date which is thirty (30) days
after the Required Effective Date (except as provided by the last sentence of
section 2(a)), and, if the Registration Statement required to be filed by the
Company pursuant to Section 2(a) is not then effective, (30) days after the
previous Computation Date (pro rated for partial periods) until such
Registration Statement is so declared effective.
(d) Redemption. In accordance with the terms of the Debentures, if
the Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities required to be
filed by the Company pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof is not effective within one
hundred eighty (180) days of the Closing Date (the "Final Registration Date")
(except as provided by the last sentence of Section 2(a)), in addition to paying
the amount payable under Section 2(c) hereof, the Company shall redeem the
Debentures for the Redemption Amount (as defined) on the Final Registration
Date. For purposes of this Section 2(d) , "Redemption Amount" means the amount
equal to the gross proceeds which the Investor would have realized had all of
the Investor's Debentures (and accrued but unpaid interest thereon, if any) been
converted on the Final Registration Date and all of the shares of Common Stock
into which such Debentures were converted were sold on the Final Registration
Date at the Market Price (as defined in the Debenture) on such date.
3. Obligations of the Company. In connection with the registration
of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall do each of the following:
(a) Prepare promptly, and file with the SEC by thirty (30) days after
the Closing Date, a Registration Statement with respect to not less than the
number of Registrable Securities provided in Section 2(a), above, and thereafter
use its reasonable best efforts to cause each Registration Statement relating to
Registrable Securities to become effective within ninety (90) days of the
Closing Date, and keep the Registration Statement effective at all times until
the earliest (the "Registration Period") of (i) the date that is two years after
the Closing Date (ii) the date when the Investors may sell all Registrable
Securities under Rule 144 or (iii) the date the Investors no longer own any of
the Registrable Securities, which Registration Statement (including any
amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in
light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading;
(b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including
post-effective amendments) and supplements to the Registration Statement and the
prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be
necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective at all times during the
Registration Period, and, during the Registration Period, comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all
Registrable Securities of the
3
Company covered by the Registration Statement until such time as all of such
Registrable Securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended
methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in the
Registration Statement;
(c) The Company shall permit a single firm of counsel designated by
the Initial Investors and reasonably satisfactory to the Company to review the
Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto at a
reasonable period of time prior to their filing with the SEC, and not file any
document in a form to which such counsel reasonably objects in written notice to
the Company given within three (3) business days of such counsel's receipt of
the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto;
(d) Furnish to each Investor whose Registrable Securities are
included in the Registration Statement and its legal counsel identified to the
Company, (i) promptly after the same is prepared and publicly distributed, filed
with the SEC, or received by the Company, one (1) copy of the Registration
Statement, each preliminary prospectus and prospectus, and each amendment or
supplement thereto, and (ii) such number of copies of a prospectus, and all
amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents, as such Investor
may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable
Securities owned by such Investor;
(e) As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event,
notify each Investor of the happening of any event of which the Company has
knowledge, as a result of which the prospectus included in the 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 statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading, and use its best efforts promptly to prepare a supplement
or amendment to the Registration Statement or other appropriate filing with the
SEC to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver a number of copies
of such supplement or amendment to each Investor as such Investor may reasonably
request;
(f) As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event,
notify each Investor who holds Registrable Securities being sold (or, in the
event of an underwritten offering, the managing underwriters) of the issuance by
the SEC of a notice of effectiveness or any stop order or other suspension of
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement at the earliest possible time;
(g) Use its reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities
to be listed for trading on the American Stock Exchange (or on any other
national securities exchange on which the Company's Common Stock is then
listed).
(h) Provide a transfer agent and registrar, which may be a single
entity, for the Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of the
Registration Statement;
(i) Cooperate with the Investors who hold Registrable Securities
being offered to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates
for the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to the Registration
Statement and enable such certificates for the Registrable Securities to be in
such denominations or amounts as the case may be, as the Investors may
reasonably request, and, within three (3) business days after a Registration
Statement which includes Registrable Securities is ordered effective by the SEC,
the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company
to deliver, to the transfer agent for the Registrable Securities (with copies to
the Investors whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration
Statement) an appropriate instruction and opinion of such counsel; and
4
(j) Take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and
facilitate disposition by the Investor of the Registrable Securities pursuant to
the Registration Statement.
4. Obligations of the Investors. In connection with the
registration of the Registrable Securities, the Investors shall have the
following obligations:
(a) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the
Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to
the Registrable Securities of a particular Investor that such Investor shall
furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable
Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable
Securities held by it, as shall be reasonably required to effect the
registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in
connection with such registration as the Company may from time to time
reasonably request. At least five (5) days prior to the first anticipated
filing date of the Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each
Investor of the information the Company requires from each such Investor (the
"Requested Information") if such Investor elects to have any of such Investor's
Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement. If at least two
(2) business days prior to the filing date the Company has not received the
Requested Information from an Investor (a "Non-Responsive Investor"), then the
Company may file the Registration Statement without including Registrable
Securities of such Non-Responsive Investor;
(b) Each Investor by such Investor's acceptance of the Registrable
Securities agrees to cooperate with the Company and to take such actions and
execute such documents as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with
the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement hereunder, unless such
Investor has notified the Company in writing of such Investor's election to
exclude all of such Investor's Registrable Securities from the Registration
Statement; and
(c) Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the
Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(e) or
3(f), above, such Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of
Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such
Registrable Securities until such Investor's receipt of the copies of the
supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(e) or 3(f) or until
it is advised in writing by the Company (which notice the Company shall give as
promptly as possible), that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, and, if so
directed by the Company, such Investor shall deliver to the Company or destroy
(and deliver to the Company a certificate of destruction) all copies in such
Investor's possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities
current at the time of receipt of such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
at any time or from time to time after the date of effectiveness of the
Registration Statement, the Company notifies the Investors in writing of the
existence of a Potential Material Event, the Investors shall not offer or sell
any Registrable Securities, or engage in any transaction involving or relating
to the Registrable Securities, from the time of the giving notice with respect
to a Potential Material Event until such Investor received written notice from
the Company that such Potential Material Event either has been disclosed to the
public or no longer constitutes a Potential Material Event; provided, however,
that the Company may not so suspend the right to such holders of Registrable
Securities for more than two twenty (20) day periods in the aggregate during any
12-month period ("Suspension Period") with at least a ten (10) business day
interval between such periods, during the periods the Registration Statement is
required to be in effect.
5. Expenses of Registration. All reasonable expenses, other than
underwriting discounts and commissions incurred in connection with
registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Section 3, but including,
without limitation, all registration, listing, and
5
qualifications fees, printers and accounting fees, and the fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Company, shall be borne by the Company;
provided, however, that the fees and disbursements of the Investors' counsel
referred to in Section 3(c) hereof shall be borne by the Investors.
6. Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are
included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:
(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and
hold harmless each Investor who holds such Registrable Securities, the
directors, if any, of such Investor, the officers, if any, of such Investor,
each person, if any, who controls any Investor within the meaning of Section 15
of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, an "Indemnified
Person" or "Indemnified Party"), against any losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses (joint or several) incurred (collectively, "Claims") to
which any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act
or otherwise, insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether
commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
of the following statements, omissions or violations in the Registration
Statement, or any post-effective amendment thereof, or any prospectus included
therein: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereof
or 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,
(ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company
files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission
or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the
statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the
statements therein were made, 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 under the Securities Act, the Exchange
Act or any state securities law (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i)
through (iii) being, collectively, "Violations"). Subject to clause (b) of this
Section 6, the Company shall reimburse the Investors, promptly as such expenses
are incurred and are due and payable, for any legal fees or other reasonable
expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such
Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a) shall not (I) apply to
a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon
and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on
behalf of any Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the
preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or
supplement thereto, (II) be available to the extent such Claim is based on a
failure of the Investor to deliver or cause to be delivered the prospectus made
available by the Company; (III) apply to a Claim arising out of or based upon an
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission in
the prospectus, if such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, omission
or alleged omission was corrected in an amendment or supplement to the
prospectus and if, having previously been furnished with copies of the
prospectus as so amended or supplemented, such Investor thereafter failed to
deliver such prospectus as so amended or supplemented, prior to or concurrently
with the sale of the Registrable Security to the person asserting such Claim and
(IV) apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is
effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld. Each Investor shall indemnify and hold harmless
the Company and its officers, directors and agents and any person who controls
the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20
of the Exchange Act against any claims arising out of or based upon a Violation
which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in
writing to the Company, by or on behalf of such Investor, expressly for use in
connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement, subject to such
limitations and conditions as are applicable to the Indemnification provided by
the Company to this Section 6.
6
Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive
the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section
9.
(b) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified
Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action
(including any governmental action), such Indemnified Person or Indemnified
Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any
indemnifying party under this Section 6, 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
control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the
indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the
case may be. In case any such action is brought against any Indemnified Person
or Indemnified Party, and it notifies the 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, assume the defense thereof, subject to the provisions herein stated
and after notice from the indemnifying party to such Indemnified Person or
Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the
indemnifying party will not be liable to such Indemnified Person or Indemnified
Party under this Section 6 for any legal or other reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party
in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of
investigation, unless the indemnifying party shall not pursue the action of its
final conclusion. The Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the
right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the
defense thereof, but the fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of such
counsel shall not be at the expense of the indemnifying party if the
indemnifying party has assumed the defense of the action with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party. The failure to
deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the
commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any
liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6,
except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such failure
in its ability to defend such action. The indemnification required by this
Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the
course of the investigation or defense, as such expense, loss, damage or
liability is incurred and is due and payable.
7. Contribution. To the extent any indemnification by an
indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party
agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it
would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by
law; provided, however, that (a) no contribution shall be made under
circumstances where the maker would not have been liable for indemnification
under the fault standards set forth in Section 6; (b) no seller of Registrable
Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller
of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation; and (c) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities
shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller
from the sale of such Registrable Securities.
8. Reports under Exchange Act. With a view to making available to
the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or
any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the
Investors to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration
("Rule 144"), the Company agrees to use its best efforts to:
(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood
7
and defined in Rule 144;
(b) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act;
and
(c) furnish to each Investor so long as such Investor owns
Registrable Securities which continue to be "restricted securities" within the
meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, promptly upon request, (i) a
written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting
requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy
of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other
reports and documents so filed with the SEC by the Company and (iii) such other
information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell such
securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.
9. Assignment of the Registration Rights. The rights to have the
Company register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be
automatically assigned by the Investors to any transferee of the Registrable
Securities (or all or any portion of any Debenture of the Company which is
convertible into such securities) only if: (a) the Investor agrees in writing
with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such
agreement is furnished to the Company within a reasonable time after such
assignment, (b) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or
assignment, furnished with written notice of (i) the name and address of such
transferee or assignee and (ii) the securities with respect to which such
registration rights are being transferred or assigned, (c) immediately following
such transfer or assignment the further disposition of such securities by the
transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act and applicable
state securities laws, and (d) at or before the time the Company received the
written notice contemplated by clause (b) of this sentence the transferee or
assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions
contained herein. In the event of any delay in filing or effectiveness of the
Registration Statement as a result of such assignment, the Company shall not be
liable for any damages arising from such delay, or the payments set forth in
Section 2(c) hereof.
10. Amendment of Registration Rights. Any provision of this
Agreement 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 Investors who
hold a majority interest of the Registrable Securities. Any amendment or waiver
effected in accordance with this Section 10 shall be binding upon each Investor
and the Company.
11. Miscellaneous.
(a) Persons deemed to be Holders of Registrable Securities. A person
or entity is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such
person or entity owns of record such Registrable Securities. If the Company

registered owner of such Registrable Securities.
