Shareholders, participation in such underwriting. Upon receipt of any such
request, the Company shall promptly give written notice of such proposed
registration to all Shareholders. Such Shareholders shall have the right, by
giving written notice to the Company within 30 days after the Company provides
its notice, to elect to have included in such registration such of their
Registrable Shares as such Shareholders may request in such notice of election;
provided that if the underwriter (if any) managing the offering determines that,
because of marketing factors, all of the Registrable Shares requested to be
registered by all Shareholders may not be included in the offering, then all
Shareholders who have requested registration shall participate in the
registration pro rata based upon the number of Registrable Shares which they
have requested to be so registered Thereupon, the Company shall, as
expeditiously as possible, use its best efforts to effect the registration on
Form S- I or Form S-2 (or any successor form) of all Registrable Shares
which the Company has been requested to so register.
(b) At any time after the Company becomes eligible to file a
Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form relating to secondary
offerings), a Shareholder or Shareholders holding in the aggregate at least
200,000 of the Registrable Shares may request the Company, in writing, to effect
the registration on Form S-3 (or such successor form), of Registrable Shares.
Such Shareholders shall have the right, by giving written notice to the Company
within 30 days after the Company provides its notice, to elect to have included
in such registration such of their Registrable Shares as such Shareholders may
request in such notice of election, provided that if the underwriter (if any)
managing the offering determines that, because of marketing factors, all of the
Registrable Shares requested to be registered by all Shareholders may not be
included in the offering, then all Shareholders who have requested registration
shall participate in the registration pro rata based upon the number of
Registrable Shares which they have requested to be so registered. Thereupon, the
Company shall, as expeditiously as possible, use it's best efforts to effect the
registration on Form S-3 (or such successor form) of all Registrable Shares
which the Company has been requested to so register.

registrations pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) above. In addition, the Company

is engaged in any other activity which, in the good faith
determination of the Company's Board of Directors, would be adversely
affected by the requested registration to the material detriment of the
Company, then the Company may at its option direct that such request be
delayed for a period not in excess of six months from the effective date of
such offering or the date of commencement of such other material activity, as
the case may be, such right to delay a request to be exercised by the Company
not more than once in any two-year period.
3. Incidental Registration.
(a) Whenever the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement
(other than pursuant to Section 2) at any time and from time to time, it
will, prior to such filing, give written notice to all Shareholders of its
intention to do so and, upon the written request of a Shareholder or
Shareholders given within 15 days after the Company provides such notice
(which request shall state the intended method of disposition of such
Registrable Shares), the Company shall use its best efforts to cause all
Registrable Shares which the Company has been requested by such Shareholder
or Shareholders to register to be registered under the Securities Act to the
extent necessary to permit their sale or other disposition in accordance with
the intended methods of distribution specified in the request of such
Shareholder or Shareholders; provided that the Company shall have the right
to postpone or withdraw any registration effected pursuant to this Section 3
without obligation to any Shareholder.
(b) In connection with any registration under this Section 3
involving an underwriting, the Company shall not be required to include any
Registrable Shares in such registration unless the holders thereof accept the
terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the
underwriters selected by it (provided that such terms must be consistent with
this Agreement). If in the opinion of the managing underwriter it is
appropriate because of marketing factors to limit the number of Registrable
Shares to be included in the offering, then the Company shall be required to
include in the registration only that number of Registrable Shares, if any,
which the managing underwriter believes should be included therein; provided
that (i) in no event shall the number of Registrable Shares included in any
registration other than the Company's initial Registration Statement be
reduced below 30% of the total number of shares of Common Stock (giving
effect to the conversion into Common Stock of all securities convertible
thereinto) included in the offering, and (ii) no persons or entities other
than the Company, the Shareholders and persons or entities holding
registration rights granted in accordance with Section 10 hereof shall be
permitted to include securities in the offering. If the number of Registrable
Shares to be included in the offering in accordance with the foregoing is
less than the total number of shares which the holders of Registrable Shares
have requested to be included. then the holders of Registrable Shares who
have requested registration and other holders of securities entitled to
include them in such registration shall participate in the registration pro
rata based upon their total ownership of shares of Common Stock (giving
effect to the conversion into Common Stock of all securities convertible
thereinto). If any holder would thus be entitled to include more securities
than such holder requested to be registered, the excess shall be allocated
among other requesting holders pro rata in the manner described in the
preceding sentence.
4. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. If and whenever the Company is
required by the provisions of this Agreement to use its best efforts to effect
the registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act, the
Company shall:
(a) file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect
to such Registrable Shares and use its best efforts to cause that
Registration Statement to become and remain effective;
(b) as expeditiously as possible prepare and file with the
Commission any amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and
the prospectus included in the Registration Statement as may be necessary to

distribution of all securities purchased by it and, in the case of any other
offering, until the earlier of the sale of all Registrable Shares covered

Shareholders with revised prospectuses and, following receipt of the revised
prospectuses, the selling Shareholders shall be free to resume making offers of
