"This Note and the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion hereof have not been registered or
qualified for sale under the Securities Act of 1933,

registered or qualified for sale under the

and may not be offered for sale, sold or otherwise
transferred unless such offer, sale or transfer is
registered or qualified pursuant to or is exempt
from the registration requirements of such Act or
any such State securities laws. This Warrant and the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise hereof
are transferable only upon the conditions specified
in the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of

the institutions named therein."
Each certificate for shares of Common Stock initially issued upon the

certificate shall, unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of this SS.2.1,
bear on the face thereof a legend reading substantially as follows:
"The shares of Common Stock represented by this
certificate have not been registered or qualified
for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or any State securities laws and may not be
offered for sale, sold or otherwise transferred
unless such offer, sale or transfer is registered or
qualified pursuant to or is exempt from the

State securities laws. The shares of Common Stock
represented by this certificate are transferable
only upon the conditions specified in the
Registration Rights Agreement dated as of November
10, 2000 among Vision Twenty-One, Inc. and the
institutions named therein."
In the event that a registration statement covering any Registrable
Shares shall become effective under the Securities Act and under any applicable
state securities laws or in the event that the Company shall receive an opinion
of its counsel that, in the opinion of such counsel, such legend is not, or is
no longer, necessary or required with respect to such shares (including, without
limitation, because of the availability of the exemption afforded by Rule 144 of
the General Rules and Regulations of the Commission), the Company shall, or
shall instruct its transfer agents and registrars to, remove such legend from
the certificates evidencing such Registrable Shares or issue new certificates
without such legend in lieu thereof. Upon the written request of any Holder, the
Company covenants and agrees forthwith to request its counsel to render an
opinion with respect to the matters covered by this paragraph and to bear all
expenses in connection with such opinion of its counsel.
Section 2.2. Notice of Proposed Transfer; Registration Not Required.
The Holder of each Convertible Note, Warrant or any Registrable Shares,
by acceptance thereof, agrees to give prior written notice to the Company of
such Holder's intention to transfer such Convertible Note, Warrant or the
Registrable Shares relating thereto (or any portion thereof), describing briefly
the manner and circumstances of the proposed transfer. Unless the Company shall
have received an opinion from counsel to the Company (which opinion shall be
obtained by the Company not more than 3 business days after notice of a proposed
transfer) that
-3-
6
the proposed transfer may not be effected without registration or qualification
under Federal or state law, such Holder shall be entitled to transfer such
Convertible Note, Warrant, or Registrable Shares, all in accordance with the
terms of the notice delivered by such Holder to the Company. All fees and
expenses of counsel for the Company in connection with the rendition of the
opinion provided for in SS.2.1 or this SS.2.2 shall be paid by the Company.
Section 2.3. Required Registration and Notice; Transfer of
Convertible Notes; Warrants.
(a) If in the opinion of counsel referred to in SS.2.2 a proposed
transfer of the Registrable Shares requested by the Holder thereof may not be
effected without registration or qualification under applicable Federal or state
law, the Company shall promptly give written notice to all Holders of a proposed
registration or qualification, and shall, subject to the conditions of SS.2.4,
as expeditiously as possible, endeavor, in good faith, to effect any such
registration or qualification of
(i) such Registrable Shares, and
(ii) all Registrable Shares of all Holders which shall
have advised the Company in writing within 30 days after the giving of
such written notice by the Company of their desire to have their
Registrable Shares registered or qualified or exempted,
with, or notification to or approval of, any governmental authority under any
Federal or state law, or listing with any securities exchange, which may be
required reasonably to permit the sale or other disposition of any such
Registrable Shares which the Holders thereof propose to make, and the Company
will keep effective such registration, qualification, exemption, notification or
approval for such period as may be necessary to effect such sales or
dispositions, provided the Company shall not be required to maintain the
effectiveness of any registration statement filed in connection with any such
registration or to amend the registration statement or to supplement the
prospectus after the expiration of six months from the effective date of such
registration statement. It is understood that no Convertible Note or Warrant for
which a transfer has been proposed pursuant to SS.2.3 may be transferred in the
manner proposed if no exemption from registration thereof under the Securities
Act is available in the opinion of counsel mentioned above.
(b) The Company may delay the filing of, or delay the
effectiveness or suspend, a registration statement relating to a Registration
required under this SS.2.3 if the Board of Directors of the Company determines
in good faith, by resolution, that the filing of a registration statement, if
not so deferred, would adversely affect a then-proposed or pending Company
financing, acquisition, merger, consolidation, divestiture or other significant
corporate transaction; provided, however, that such delay may not exceed 45 days
and such right may not be exercised by the Company more than once in any
12-month period, and, provided, further, that any such delay will result in an
extension of the required effective period under SS.2.3(A) hereof of one daY for
each day of delay pursuant to this SS.2.3(B).
-4-
7
Section 2.4. Conditions to Required Registration.
The Company shall not be required to register Registrable Shares under
the Securities Act pursuant to SS.2.3:
(a) on more than five occasions;
(b) within 90 days after the effective date of a
registration referred to in SS.2.5 pursuant to which the Holder or
Holders of the Registrable Shares concerned were afforded the
opportunity to register such shares under the Securities Act but
declined so to do; or
(c) unless a request therefor is made to the Company by a
Holder or Holders of Registrable Shares to be issued upon completion of
such registration which constitute more than 50% of the Registrable
Shares which have not been previously registered or sold pursuant to an
exemption from registration under the Securities Act.
Section 2.5. Incidental Registration.
The Company agrees that at any time it proposes to register any of its
Common Stock for a public offering thereof under the Securities Act (otherwise
than pursuant to SS.2.3 hereof) on Form S-1 or any other form of registration
statement (other than Form S-4 or Form S-8) then available for the registration
under the Securities Act of Securities of the Company, it will give written
notice to all Holders of its intention so to do and upon the written request of
any Holder, given within 20 days after receipt of any such notice from the
Company, the Company will in each instance use its best efforts to cause the
offer and sale of all Registrable Shares held by any such requesting Holder to
be registered under the Securities Act and registered or qualified under any
state securities law, all to the extent necessary to permit the sale or other
disposition thereof in the manner stated in such request by the prospective
seller of the Securities so registered. Any Holder requesting registration of
its Registrable Shares shall in its request describe briefly the manner of any
proposed transfer of its Registrable Shares. Nothing in this SS.2.5 shall be
deemed to require the Company to proceed with any registration of its securities
after giving the notice herein provided.
If the investment banker engaged by the Company in connection with a
public offering of such securities proposed for registration under the
Securities Act determines in good faith and for valid business reasons that
registration of such Registrable Shares would interfere with or be detrimental
to such offering, including the timely consummation thereof, such investment
banker shall give prompt written notice of such determination to such requesting
Holder or Holders, setting forth in reasonable detail the reasons for such
determination. In such event the Company, upon written notice to the Holders of
such Registrable Shares, shall have the right to limit such Registrable Shares
to be registered, if any, to the largest number which would not result in such
interference or detriment (such limitation being applied to each such requesting
Holder pro rata in respect of the number of shares subject to such request);
provided that if Securities of the Company held by any Person (other than the
Company) are to be included in such public offering, such reduction in the
number of Registrable Shares (treating all such shares as one class
-5-
8
of securities for this purpose) shall be not more than proportionate to the
reduction in the number of such other Securities which are to be included in
such registration.
Section 2.6. Expenses; Reliance.
The Company will pay all expenses (including, without limitation,
registration fees, qualification fees, legal expenses, including the reasonable
fees and expenses of one counsel to the Holders whose Registrable Shares are
being registered, accounting and printing expenses, the cost of special audits
or "cold comfort" letters, expenses of underwriters, excluding discounts and
commissions but including the reasonable fees and expenses of special experts)
in connection with each registration pursuant to SS.2.3 and each registration
pursuant to SS.2.5.
The Company shall furnish to each Holder of Registrable Shares which
are the subject of any registration pursuant to this Agreement, on the date that
the registration becomes effective, and redeliver in connection with the filing
of each post-effective amendment, (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the
independent counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such
registration, addressed to such Holder, stating that such registration has
become effective under the Securities Act and addressing such other customary
legal matters as reasonably requested by such Holder; and (ii) a letter dated
such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company,
addressed to such Holders stating that they are independent certified public
accountants within the meaning of the Securities Act, and that, in the opinion
of such accountants, the financial statements and other financial data of the
Company included in the registration or qualification or filing for exemption 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 letter from the independent certified public accountants shall
additionally cover such other financial matters (including information as to the
period ending not more than five 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 outstanding Registrable Shares being so
registered or any underwriter may reasonably request.
Section 2.7. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) In connection with any registration, qualification or
notification of securities under SS.2.3 or SS.2.5, the Company hereby
indemnifies each Holder and eAch underwriter thereof including each Person, if
any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of
the Securities Act, against all losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused
by any untrue, or alleged untrue, statement of a material fact contained in any
registration statement or prospectus or notification or offering circular (and
as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or
supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus or caused by any 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 or liabilities of such indemnified party are caused by any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information
furnished in writing to the Company by such indemnified party expressly for use
therein, and the Company and each officer, director and controlling Person of
the Company shall be indemnified by the Holder or by the underwriters for all
such losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue, or alleged
untrue, statement
-6-
9
or omission, or alleged omission, based upon information respectively furnished
in writing to the Company by the Holder or the underwriters, as the case may be,
expressly for any such use. The foregoing is subject to the condition that,
insofar as it relates to any untrue statement, alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission made in any preliminary prospectus but eliminated
or remedied in the final prospectus (or in any amendment or supplement thereto),
the indemnity of the Company shall not inure to the benefit of any underwriter
from whom the Person asserting any loss, claim or damage purchased the
Registrable Shares which were the subject thereof (or to the benefit of any
Person who controls such underwriter), if a copy of the final prospectus (or
such amendment or supplement thereto) was not sent or given to such Person at or
prior to the time such action is required by the Securities Act.
(b) Promptly upon receipt by a party indemnified under this
Section of notice of the commencement of any action against such indemnified
party in respect of which indemnity or reimbursement may be sought against any
indemnifying party under this Section, such indemnified party shall notify the
indemnifying party in writing of the commencement of such action, but the
failure so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it of any
liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this
Section. In case notice of commencement of any such action shall be given to the
indemnifying party as above provided, the indemnifying party shall be entitled
to participate in and, to the extent it may wish, jointly with any other
indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense of such action at
its own expense, with counsel chosen by it and satisfactory to such indemnified
party. The indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in
any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and
expenses of such counsel shall be paid by the indemnified party unless the
indemnifying party either agrees to pay the same or fails to assume the defense
of such action with counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party. No
indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement entered into without its
consent.
(c) If the indemnification provided for in this SS.2.7 from the
indemnifyinG party is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder in respect
of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which such
indemnified party would be otherwise entitled under SS.2.7(A), 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. In no event shall any Person be required to
contribute an amount greater than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by
such Person with respect to the sale of the Registrable Shares.
-7-
10
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this SS.2.7(C) 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. The contribution
provided for in this SS.2.7(C) shall survive, witH respect to a Holder of
Registrable Shares, the transfer of Registrable Shares by such Holder and with
respect to a Holder of Registrable Shares, shall remain in full force and effect
regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
(d) In connection with any registration pursuant to SS.2.3 or
SS.2.5, The Company and each holder of Convertible Notes or Registrable Shares
(other than a Lender) selling Registrable Shares shall enter into an agreement
containing the indemnification provisions of this SS.2.7.
Section 2.8. Miscellaneous.
(a) The Company shall comply with all reporting requirements set
forth or referred to in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and will
do all such other things as may be necessary to permit the expeditious sale at
any time of any Registrable Shares by the Holder thereof in accordance with and
to the extent permitted by said Rule 144 or any other similar Rule or Rules
promulgated by the Commission from time to time.
(b) The Company shall at its expense provide the Holders with any
information necessary in connection with the completion and filing of any
reports or forms required to be filed by them under the Securities Act or the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or any Rule promulgated by the Commission
thereunder.
SECTION 3. MISCELLANEOUS.
Section 3.1. Notices.
All communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and, if
to a Holder, delivered or mailed prepaid by registered or certified mail or
overnight air courier, or by facsimile communication, in each case addressed to
such Holder at its address appearing beneath its signature at the foot of the
Convertible Note Agreement or such other address as any Holder may designate to
the Company in writing, and if to the Company, delivered or mailed by registered
or certified mail or overnight courier, or by facsimile communication, to the
Company at the address beneath its signature at the foot of this Agreement or to
such other address as the Company may designate to the Holders in writing;
provided, however, that a notice to a Holder by overnight air courier shall only
be effective if delivered to such Holder at a street address designated for such
purpose in accordance with this Section, and a notice to such Holder by
facsimile communication shall only be effective if made by confirmed
transmission to such Holder at a telephone number designated for such purpose in
accordance with this Section and promptly followed by delivery of such notice by
registered or certified mail or overnight air courier, as set forth above.

Section 3.2. Successors and Assigns.
This Agreement shall be binding upon the Company and its successors and
assigns and shall inure to the benefit of each Lender and its successors and
permitted assigns, including each successive Holder.
Section 3.3. Severability.
Should any part of this Agreement for any reason be declared invalid or
unenforceable, such decision will not affect the validity or unenforceability of
any remaining portion, which remaining portion will remain in force and effect
as if this Agreement had been executed with the invalid portion thereof
eliminated and it is hereby declared the intention of the parties hereto that
they would have executed the remaining portion of this Agreement without
including therein any such part or portion which may, for any reason, be
hereafter declared invalid or unenforceable.
Section 3.4. Governing Law.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
Illinois law.
Section 3.5. Submission to Jurisdiction.
The Company hereby submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the
United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois and of any
Illinois State court sitting in the City of Chicago for purposes of all legal
proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby. The Company irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying
of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that
any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient
forum. THE COMPANY AND EACH LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT
TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
Section 3.6. Captions.
The descriptive headings of the various Sections or parts of this
Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or
construction of any of the provisions hereof.
Section 3.7. Amendments.This Agreement may be amended only by an
instrument in writing executed by the Holders representing more than 66 2/3% of
the Registrable Shares then owned by all of the Holders, and the Company;
provided, however, that no amendment hereto providing one or more Holders with
priority over, or greater relative rights with respect to, other Holders in
registering Registrable Shares, or providing for the elimination of registration
rights as to any Holder, shall be made without the consent of all Holders
adversely affected.

the Company and the Lenders for the uses and purposes hereinabove set forth.
