pursuant to Rule 415. The Registration Statement shall be on Form SB-2 (except
if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable
Securities on Form SB-2, in which case such registration shall be on another
appropriate form in accordance herewith and the Securities Act and the rules
promulgated thereunder). Such Registration Statement shall cover to the extent
allowable under the Securities Act and the rules promulgated thereunder
(including Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common
Stock resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions with
respect to the Registrable Securities. The Company shall (i) not permit any
securities other than the Registrable Securities and the securities to be listed
on Schedule II hereto to be included in the Registration Statement and (ii) use
its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective
under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, but
in any event prior to the Effectiveness Date, and to keep such Registration
Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until such date as is
the earlier of (x) the date when all Registrable Securities covered by such
Registration Statement have been sold or (y) the date on which the Registrable
Securities may be sold without any restriction pursuant to Rule 144(k) as
determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter,
addressed to the Company's transfer agent to such effect (the "Effectiveness
Period"). The Company shall request that the effective time of the Registration
Statement is 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the effective date. If at any time and
for any reason, an additional Registration Statement is required to be filed
because at such time the actual number of shares of Common Stock into which the
Notes are convertible and the Warrants are exercisable exceeds the number of
shares of Registrable Securities remaining under the Registration Statement, the
Company shall have twenty (20) days to file such additional Registration
Statement, and the Company shall use its best efforts to cause such additional
Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as
possible, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after filing.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2, in the
event the Commission does not permit the Company to register all of the
Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement, the Company shall register
in the Registration Statement such number of Registrable Securities as is
permitted by the Commission, provided, however, that the number of Registrable
Securities to be included in such Registration Statement or any subsequent
registration statement shall be determined in the following order: (i) first,
the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes shall be
registered on a pro rata basis among the holders of the Notes, and (ii) second,
the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be
registered on a pro rata basis among the holders of the Warrants. In the event
the Commission does not permit the Company to register all of the Registrable
Securities in the Registration Statement, the Company shall use its best efforts
to register the Registrable Securities, subject to the foregoing sentence, that
were not registered in the Registration Statement as promptly as possible and in
a manner permitted by the Commission, whether by filing a subsequent
registration statement, providing demand registration rights, or otherwise.

3. Registration Procedures.
In connection with the Company's registration obligations hereunder,
the Company shall:
(a) Prepare and file with the Commission on or prior to the Filing
Date, a Registration Statement on Form SB-2 (or if the Company is not then
eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form SB-2 such
registration shall be on another appropriate form in accordance herewith and the
Securities Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in accordance with the plan
of distribution as set forth on Exhibit A hereto and in accordance with
applicable law, and cause the Registration Statement to become effective and
remain effective as provided herein; provided, however, that not less than five
(5) Business Days prior to the filing of the Registration Statement or any
related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto (including any
document that would be incorporated therein by reference), the Company shall (i)
furnish to the Holders and the Special Counsel, copies of all such documents
proposed to be filed, which documents (other than those incorporated by
reference) will be subject to the review of such Holders and such Special
Counsel, and (ii) cause its officers and directors, counsel and independent
certified public accountants to respond to such inquiries as shall be necessary,
in the reasonable opinion of Special Counsel, to conduct a reasonable review of
the documents. The Company shall not file the Registration Statement or any such
Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto to which the Holders of a
majority of the Registrable Securities or the Special Counsel shall reasonably
object in writing within three (3) Business Days of their receipt thereof.
(b) (i) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments,
including post-effective amendments, to the Registration Statement as may be
necessary to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective as to the
applicable Registrable Securities for the Effectiveness Period and prepare and
file with the Commission such additional Registration Statements as necessary in
order to register for resale under the Securities Act all of the Registrable
Securities; (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by
any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented or amended to be
filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force) promulgated
under the Securities Act; (iii) respond as promptly as possible, but in no event
later than ten (10) Business Days, to any comments received from the Commission
with respect to the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto and to
provide the Holders, within such ten (10) Business Day period, true and complete
copies of all correspondence from and to the Commission relating to the
Registration Statement; (iv) file the final prospectus pursuant to Rule 424 of
the Securities Act no later than 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the Business Day
following the date the Registration Statement is declared effective by the
Commission; and (v) comply in all material respects with the provisions of the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all
Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement during the
Effectiveness Period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by
the Holders thereof set forth in the Registration Statement as so amended or in
such Prospectus as so supplemented.
5
(c) Notify the Holders of Registrable Securities and the Special
Counsel as promptly as possible (and, in the case of (i)(A) below, not less than
three (3) Business Days prior to such filing, and in the case of (iii) below, on
the same day of receipt by the Company of such notice from the Commission) and
(if requested by any such Person) confirm such notice in writing no later than
one (1) Business Day following the day (i)(A) when a Prospectus or any
Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement
is filed; (B) when the Commission notifies the Company whether there will be a
"review" of such Registration Statement and whenever the Commission comments in
writing on such Registration Statement and (C) with respect to the Registration
Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective;
(ii) of any request by the Commission or any other Federal or state governmental
authority for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or
Prospectus or for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the
Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or the initiation or
threatening of any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) if at any time any of the
representations and warranties of the Company contained in any agreement
contemplated hereby ceases to be true and correct in all material respects; (v)
of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension
of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable
Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any
Proceeding for such purpose; and (vi) of the occurrence of any event that makes
any statement made in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any
material respect or that requires any revisions to the Registration Statement,
Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement
or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
(d) Use its best efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued,
obtain the withdrawal of, as promptly as possible, (i) any order suspending the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement or (ii) any suspension of the
qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable
Securities for sale in any jurisdiction.
(e) If requested by the Holders of a majority in interest of the
Registrable Securities, (i) promptly incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or
post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement such information as the
Company reasonably agrees should be included therein and (ii) make all required
filings of such Prospectus supplement or such post-effective amendment as soon
as practicable after the Company has received notification of the matters to be
incorporated in such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment.
6
(f) Furnish to each Holder and the Special Counsel, without charge,
at least one conformed copy of each Registration Statement and each amendment
thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and all exhibits
to the extent requested by such Person (including those previously furnished or
incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such documents with the
Commission.
(g) Promptly deliver to each Holder and the Special Counsel, without
charge, as many copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of
prospectus) and each amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons may
reasonably request; and subject to the provisions of Sections 3(m) and 3(n), the
Company hereby consents to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or
supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders in connection with the
offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus and
any amendment or supplement thereto.
(h) Prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its
best efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders and
the Special Counsel in connection with the registration or qualification (or
exemption from such registration or qualification) of such Registrable
Securities for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such
jurisdictions within the United States as any Holder requests in writing, to
keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective
during the Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things
necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the
Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in
any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to take any action that
would subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it
is not then so subject or subject the Company to any material tax in any such
jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.
(i) Cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation
and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold
pursuant to a Registration Statement, which certificates, to the extent
permitted by the Purchase Agreement and applicable federal and state securities
laws, shall be free of all restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable
Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as any
Holder may request in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities.
(j) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section
3(c)(vi), as promptly as possible, prepare a supplement or amendment, including
a post-effective amendment, to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the
related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated
therein by reference, and file any other required document so that, as
thereafter delivered, neither the Registration Statement nor such Prospectus
will contain an 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 the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
(k) Use its best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities
relating to the Registration Statement to be listed or quoted on the OTC
Bulletin Board or any other securities exchange, quotation system or market, if
any, on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or traded
as and when required pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.
7
(l) Comply in all material respects with all applicable rules and
regulations of the Commission and make generally available to its security
holders all documents filed or required to be filed with the Commission,
including, but not limited, to, earning statements satisfying the provisions of
Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 not later than 45 days after
the end of any 12-month period (or 90 days after the end of any 12-month period
if such period is a fiscal year) commencing on the first day of the first fiscal
quarter of the Company after the effective date of the Registration Statement,
which statement shall conform to the requirements of Rule 158.
(m) The Company may require each selling Holder to furnish to the
Company information regarding such Holder and the distribution of such
Registrable Securities as is required by law to be disclosed in the Registration
Statement, Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and the Company
may exclude from such registration the Registrable Securities of any such Holder
who unreasonably fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time
after receiving such request.
If the Registration Statement refers to any Holder by name or
otherwise as the holder of any securities of the Company, then such Holder shall
have the right to require (if such reference to such Holder by name or otherwise
is not required by the Securities Act or any similar federal statute then in
force) the deletion of the reference to such Holder in any amendment or
supplement to the Registration Statement filed or prepared subsequent to the
time that such reference ceases to be required.
Each Holder covenants and agrees that it will not sell any
Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement until the Company has
electronically filed the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented as
contemplated in Section 3(g) and notice from the Company that the Registration
Statement and any post-effective amendments thereto have become effective as
contemplated by Section 3(c).
Each Holder agrees by its acquisition of such Registrable Securities
that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event
of the kind described in Section 3(c)(ii), 3(c)(iii), 3(c)(iv), 3(c)(v),
3(c)(vi) or 3(n), such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such
Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement until such Holder's
receipt of the copies of the supplemented Prospectus and/or amended Registration
Statement contemplated by Section 3(j), or until it is advised in writing (the
"Advice") by the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus may be
resumed, and, in either case, has received copies of any additional or
supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by
reference in such Prospectus or Registration Statement.
(n) At any time following the date that the Registration Statement
is declared effective by the Commission, if (i) there is material non-public
information regarding the Company which the Company's Board of Directors (the
"Board") determines not to be in the Company's best interest to disclose and
which the Company is not otherwise required to disclose, (ii) there is a
significant business opportunity (including, but not limited to, the acquisition
or disposition of assets (other than in the ordinary course of business) or any
merger, consolidation, tender offer or other similar transaction) available to
the Company which the Board determines not to be in the Company's best interest
to disclose, or (iii) the Company is required to file a post-effective amendment
to the Registration Statement to incorporate the Company's quarterly and annual
reports and audited financial statements on Forms 10-QSB and 10-KSB, then the
Company may (x) postpone or suspend filing of a registration statement for a
period not to exceed thirty (30) consecutive days or (y) postpone or suspend
effectiveness of a registration statement for a period not to exceed twenty (20)
consecutive days; provided that the Company may not postpone or suspend
effectiveness of a registration statement under this Section 3(n) for more than
forty-five (45) days in the aggregate during any three hundred sixty (360) day
period; provided, however, that no such postponement or suspension shall be
permitted for consecutive twenty (20) day periods arising out of the same set of
facts, circumstances or transactions.

Securities are sold pursuant to the Registration Statement. The fees and

fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable
Securities on any securities exchange as required hereunder. For the avoidance
of doubt, all brokers and underwriters' fees and discounts relating to resale of

not the Company.
9
5. Indemnification.
(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall,
notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless
each Holder, the officers, directors, managers, partners, members, shareholders
agents, brokers (including brokers who offer and sell Registrable Securities as
principal as a result of a pledge or any failure to perform under a margin call
of Common Stock), investment advisors and employees of each of them, each Person
who controls any such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, agents and
employees of each such controlling Person, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, costs of preparation and
attorneys' fees) and expenses (collectively, "Losses"), as incurred, arising out
of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in the Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any form of
prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any statutory
preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged
omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus or form of prospectus or
supplement thereto, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made) not misleading, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that (i)
such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding
such Holder or such other Indemnified Party furnished in writing to the Company
by such Holder (or their counsel or Special Counsel) expressly for use therein
and (ii) that the foregoing indemnity agreement is subject to the condition
that, insofar as it relates to any untrue statement, allegedly untrue statement,
omission or alleged omission made in any preliminary prospectus but eliminated
or remedied in the final prospectus (filed pursuant to Rule 424 of the
Securities Act), such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any
Holder, underwriter, broker or other Person acting on behalf of holders of the
Registrable Securities, from whom the Person asserting any loss, claim, damage,
liability or expense purchased the Registrable Securities which are the subject
thereof, if a copy of such final prospectus had been made available to such
Person and such Holder, underwriter, broker or other Person acting on behalf of
holders of the Registrable Securities and such final prospectus was not
delivered to such Person with or prior to the written confirmation of the sale
of such Registrable Securities to such Person. The Company shall notify the
Holders promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding of
which the Company is aware in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement.
(b) Indemnification by Holders. Each Holder shall, severally and not
jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers,
agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning
of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the
directors, officers, agents and employees of such controlling Persons, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses (as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment not subject
to appeal or review), as incurred, arising solely out of or based solely upon
any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement,
any Prospectus, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement
thereto, or arising solely out of or based solely upon any omission of a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein (in the case of any Prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement
thereto, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not
misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or
omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by such Holder
or other Indemnifying Party to the Company specifically for inclusion in the
Registration Statement or such Prospectus. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, each Holder shall be liable under this Section 5(b)
for only that amount as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Holder as a
result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration
Statement.
10
(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding shall
be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an
"Indemnified Party"), such Indemnified Party promptly shall notify the Person
from whom indemnity is sought (the "Indemnifying Party) in writing, and the
Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, including
the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and
the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense
thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice
shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities
pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be
finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is
not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have
proximately and materially adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.
An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel
in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees
and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party
or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such
fees and expenses; or (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to
assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named
parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both
such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such parties shall have
been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the
same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party
(in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in
writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the
Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume
the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying
Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any
such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior
written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending
or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party
and indemnity has been sought hereunder, unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims
that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.
All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable
fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or
preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this
Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten (10)
Business Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party (regardless of
whether it is ultimately determined that an Indemnified Party is not entitled to
indemnification hereunder; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall reimburse
all such fees and expenses to the extent it is finally judicially determined
that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder).
11
(d) Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section 5(a)
or 5(b) is due but unavailable to an Indemnified Party because of a failure or
refusal of a governmental authority to enforce such indemnification in
accordance with its terms (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each
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, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
benefits received by the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified
Party on the other from the offering of the Notes and Warrants. If, but only if,
the allocation provided by the foregoing sentence is not permitted by applicable
law, the allocation of contribution shall be made in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the
foregoing sentence but also the relative fault, as applicable, of the
Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions,
statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party
and Indemnified Party 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 of a material fact, has been
taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party
or Indemnified Party, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or
omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall
be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5(c), any
reasonable attorneys' or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such
party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been
indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in
this Section was available to such party in accordance with its terms. In no
event shall any selling Holder be required to contribute an amount under this
Section 5(d) in excess of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon sale of
such Holder's Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement
giving rise to such contribution obligation.
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account
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 indemnity and
contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any
liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Holders shall be
liable under this Section 5(d) for only that amount as does not exceed the net
proceeds to such Holder as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities
pursuant to such Registration Statement.
6. Rule 144.
As long as any Holder owns any Notes, Warrants or Registrable
Securities, the Company covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions in
respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports
required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Section
13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Holders with true
and complete copies of all such filings. As long as any Holder owns any Notes,
Warrants or Registrable Securities, if the Company is not required to file
reports pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, it will prepare
and furnish to the Holders and make publicly available in accordance with Rule
144(c) promulgated under the Securities Act annual and quarterly financial
statements, together with a discussion and analysis of such financial statements
in form and substance substantially similar to those that would otherwise be
required to be included in reports required by Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act, as well as any other information required thereby, in the time
period that such filings would have been required to have been made under the
Exchange Act. The Company further covenants that it will take such further
action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from
time to time to enable such Person to sell the Conversion Shares and the Warrant
Shares without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of
the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act,
including providing any legal opinions relating to such sale pursuant to Rule
144. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a
written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied
with such requirements.
12
7. Miscellaneous.
(a) Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company or by a
Holder, of any of their obligations under this Agreement, such Holder or the
Company, as the case may be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all
rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including recovery of damages,
will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The
Company and each Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate
compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the
provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any
action for specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the
defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
(b) No Inconsistent Agreements. Neither the Company nor any of its
subsidiaries has, as of the date hereof entered into and currently in effect,
nor shall the Company or any of its subsidiaries, on or after the date of this
Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities that is
inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or
otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. Except as disclosed in Schedule
2.1(c) of the Purchase Agreement or Schedule II hereto, neither the Company nor
any of its subsidiaries has previously entered into any agreement currently in
effect granting any registration rights with respect to any of its securities to
any Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, without the
written consent of the Holders of a majority of the then outstanding Registrable
Securities, the Company shall not grant to any Person the right to request the
Company to register any securities of the Company, under the Securities Act
unless the rights so granted are subject in all respects to the prior rights in
full of the Holders set forth herein, and are not otherwise in conflict with the
provisions of this Agreement.
(c) No Piggyback on Registrations. Neither the Company nor any of
its security holders (other than the Holders in such capacity pursuant hereto or
as disclosed on Schedule 2.1(c) of the Purchase Agreement or Schedule II hereto)
may include securities of the Company in the Registration Statement, and the
Company shall not after the date hereof enter into any agreement providing such
right to any of its securityholders, unless the right so granted is subject in
all respects to the prior rights in full of the Holders set forth herein, and is
not otherwise in conflict with the provisions of this Agreement.
13
(d) Piggy-Back Registrations. If at any time when there is not an
effective Registration Statement covering (i) Conversion Shares or (ii) Warrant
Shares, the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a
registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the
account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities,
other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities
Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely
in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity
securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit
plans, the Company shall send to each holder of Registrable Securities written
notice of such determination and, if within thirty (30) days after receipt of
such notice, or within such shorter period of time as may be specified by the
Company in such written notice as may be necessary for the Company to comply
with its obligations with respect to the timing of the filing of such
registration statement, any such holder shall so request in writing (which
request shall specify the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by
the Purchasers), the Company will cause the registration under the Securities
Act of all Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to
register by the holder, to the extent requisite to permit the disposition of the
Registrable Securities so to be registered, provided that if at any time after
giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to
the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such
registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register or to
delay registration of such securities, the Company may, at its election, give
written notice of such determination to such holder and, thereupon, (i) in the
case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to
register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but
not from its obligation to pay expenses in accordance with Section 4 hereof),
and (ii) in the case of a determination to delay registering, shall be permitted
to delay registering any Registrable Securities being registered pursuant to
this Section 7(d) for the same period as the delay in registering such other
securities. The Company shall include in such registration statement all or any
part of such Registrable Securities such holder requests to be registered;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to register any
Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 7(d) that are eligible for sale
pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act. In the case of an underwritten
public offering, if the managing underwriter(s) or underwriter(s) should
reasonably object to the inclusion of the Registrable Securities in such
registration statement, then if the Company after consultation with the managing
underwriter should reasonably determine that the inclusion of such Registrable
Securities would materially adversely affect the offering contemplated in such
registration statement, and based on such determination recommends inclusion in
such registration statement of fewer or none of the Registrable Securities of
the Holders, then (x) the number of Registrable Securities of the Holders
included in such registration statement shall be reduced pro-rata among such
Holders (based upon the number of Registrable Securities requested to be
included in the registration), if the Company after consultation with the
underwriter(s) recommends the inclusion of fewer Registrable Securities, or (y)
none of the Registrable Securities of the Holders shall be included in such
registration statement, if the Company after consultation with the
underwriter(s) recommends the inclusion of none of such Registrable Securities;
provided, however, that if securities are being offered for the account of other
persons or entities as well as the Company, such reduction shall not represent a
greater fraction of the number of Registrable securities intended to be offered
by the Holders than the fraction of similar reductions imposed on such other
persons or entities (other than the Company).
14
(e) Failure to File Registration Statement and Other Events. The
Company and the Purchasers agree that the Holders will suffer damages if the
Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to the Filing Date and not
declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the Effectiveness Date and
maintained in the manner contemplated herein during the Effectiveness Period or
if certain other events occur. The Company and the Holders further agree that it
would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision.
Accordingly, if (A) a Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to the
Filing Date, or (B) a Registration Statement is not declared effective by the
Commission on or prior to the Effectiveness Date (or in the event an additional
Registration Statement is filed because the actual number of shares of Common
Stock into which the Notes are convertible and the Warrants are exercisable
exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock initially registered is not filed
and declared effective with the time periods set forth in Section 2), or (C) the
Company fails to file with the Commission a request for acceleration in
accordance with Rule 461 promulgated under the Securities Act within three (3)
Business Days of the date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing,
whichever is earlier) by the Commission that a Registration Statement will not
be "reviewed," or not subject to further review, or (D) a Registration Statement
is filed with and declared effective by the Commission but thereafter ceases to
be effective as to all Registrable Securities at any time prior to the
expiration of the Effectiveness Period, without being succeeded promptly by a
subsequent Registration Statement filed with and declared effective by the
Commission in accordance with Section 2 hereof, or (E) the Company has breached
Section 3(n), or (F) trading in the Common Stock shall be suspended or if the
Common Stock is delisted from or no longer quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board (or
other principal exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or traded) for any
reason for more than three (3) Business Days in the aggregate (any such failure
or breach being referred to as an "Event," and for purposes of clauses (A) and
(B) the date on which such Event occurs, or for purposes of clause (C) the date
on which such three (3) Business Day period is exceeded, or for purposes of
clause (D) after more than fifteen (15) Business Days, or for purposes of clause
(F) the date on which such three (3) Business Day period is exceeded, being
referred to as "Event Date"), the Company shall pay, at the option of the
Holder, an amount in cash or shares of Common Stock, as liquidated damages to
each Holder equal to one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the Holder's initial
investment in the Notes for each calendar month or portion thereof thereafter
from the Event Date until the applicable Event is cured; provided, however, that
in no event shall the amount of liquidated damages payable at any time and from
time to time to any Holder pursuant to this Section 7(e) exceed an aggregate of
nine percent (9%) of the amount of the Holder's initial investment in the Notes.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (e), if (i) any of
the Events described in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) or (F) shall have occurred,
(II) on or prior to the applicable Event Date, the Company shall have exercised
its rights under Section 3(n) hereof and (III) the postponement or suspension
permitted pursuant to such Section 3(n) shall remain effective as of such
applicable Event Date, then the applicable Event Date shall be deemed instead to
occur on the second Business Day following the termination of such postponement
or suspension. Liquidated damages payable by the Company pursuant to this
Section 7(e) shall be payable on the first (1st) Business Day of each thirty
(30) day period following the Event Date. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, in no event shall any liquidated damages be payable
with respect to the Warrants or the Warrant Shares.
15
(f) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement,
including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or
supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof
may not be given, unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Company
and the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities outstanding.
(g) Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or
deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing
and shall be deemed given and effective on the earlier of (i) the date of
transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the
facsimile telephone number specified for notice prior to 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on a Business Day, (ii) the Business Day after the date of
transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the
facsimile telephone number specified for notice later than 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on any date and earlier than 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on such
date, (iii) the Business Day following the date of mailing, if sent by overnight
delivery by nationally recognized overnight courier service or (iv) actual
receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. The addresses
for such communications shall be with respect to each Holder at its address set
forth under its name on Schedule I attached hereto with copies to its legal

(h) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns
and shall inure to the benefit of each Holder and its successors and assigns.
The Company may not assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations
hereunder without the prior written consent of each Holder. Each Purchaser may
assign its rights hereunder in the manner and to the Persons as permitted under
the Purchase Agreement.
16
(i) Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights of each Holder
hereunder, including the right to have the Company register for resale
Registrable Securities in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, shall be
automatically assignable by each Holder to any Person of all or a portion of the
Notes or Registrable Securities if: (i) the Holder 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, (ii)
the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment,
furnished with written notice of (a) the name and address of such transferee or
assignee, and (b) the securities with respect to which such registration rights
are being transferred or assigned, (iii) following such transfer or assignment
the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignees is
restricted under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, (iv)
at or before the time the Company receives the written notice contemplated by
clause (ii) of this Section, the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with
the Company to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement, and (v) such
transfer shall have been made in accordance with the applicable requirements of
the Purchase Agreement. In addition, each Holder shall have the right to assign
its rights hereunder to any other Person with the prior written consent of the
Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The rights to
assignment shall apply to the Holders (and to subsequent) successors and
assigns.
(j) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original
and, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement and
shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and
delivered to the other parties hereto, it being understood that all parties need
not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by
facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid binding obligation
of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same
with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature were the original
thereof.
(k) Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York,
without giving effect to any of the conflicts of law principles which would
result in the application of the substantive law of another jurisdiction. This
Agreement shall not be interpreted or construed with any presumption against the
party causing this Agreement to be drafted. The Company and the Holders agree
that venue for any dispute arising under this Agreement will lie exclusively in
the state or federal courts located in New York County, New York, and the
parties irrevocably waive any right to raise forum non conveniens or any other
argument that New York is not the proper venue. The Company and the Holders
irrevocably consent to personal jurisdiction in the state and federal courts of
the state of New York. The Company and the Holders consent to process being
served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such
party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees
that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and
notice thereof. Nothing in this Section 7(k) shall affect or limit any right to
serve process in any other manner permitted by law. The Company and the Holders
hereby agree that the prevailing party in any suit, action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement, shall be
entitled to reimbursement for reasonable legal fees from the non-prevailing
party. The parties hereby waive all rights to a trial by jury.
17
(l) Cumulative Remedies. The remedies provided herein are cumulative
and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.
(m) Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of
this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable in any
respect, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set
forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be
affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their
reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same
or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision,
covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the
intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be
hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.
(n) Headings. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not
constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect
any of the provisions hereof.
(o) Shares Held by the Company and its Affiliates. Whenever the
consent or approval of Holders of a specified percentage of Registrable
Securities is required hereunder, Registrable Securities held by the Company or
its Affiliates (other than any Holder or transferees or successors or assigns
thereof if such Holder is deemed to be an Affiliate solely by reason of its
holdings of such Registrable Securities) shall not be counted in determining
whether such consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required
percentage.
(p) Independent Nature of Purchasers. The Company acknowledges that
the obligations of each Purchaser under the Transaction Documents are several
and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser
shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any
other Purchaser under the Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges that
the decision of each Purchaser to purchase Securities pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other Purchaser
and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to
the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of
operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or of
its Subsidiaries which may have made or given by any other Purchaser or by any
agent or employee of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser or any of its agents
or employees shall have any liability to any Purchaser (or any other person)
relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or
opinions. The Company acknowledges that nothing contained herein, or in any
Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or
thereto (including, but not limited to, the (i) inclusion of a Purchaser in the
Registration Statement and (ii) review by, and consent to, such Registration
Statement by a Purchaser) shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a
partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or
create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as
a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges that each Purchaser shall be
entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without
limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other
Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to
be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company
acknowledges that for reasons of administrative convenience only, the
Transaction Documents have been prepared by counsel for the placement agent and
such counsel does not represent the Purchasers and the Purchasers have retained
their own individual counsel with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby. The Company acknowledges that it has elected to provide all Purchasers
with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company
and not because it was required or requested to do so by the Purchasers. The
Company acknowledges that such procedure with respect to the Transaction
Documents in no way creates a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way
acting in concert or as a group with respect to the Transaction Documents or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

Exhibit A
Plan of Distribution
The selling security holders and any of their pledgees, donees, assignees
and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their
shares of common stock being offered under this prospectus on any stock
exchange, market or trading facility on which shares of our common stock are
traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated
prices. The selling security holders may use any one or more of the following
methods when disposing of shares:
o ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the
broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
o block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the
shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block
as principal to facilitate the transaction;
o purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resales by the
broker-dealer for its account;
o an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the
applicable exchange;
o privately negotiated transactions;
o to cover short sales made after the date that the registration
statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective
by the Commission;
o broker-dealers may agree with the selling security holders to sell a
specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
o a combination of any of these methods of sale; and
o any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
The shares may also be sold under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended ("Securities Act"), if available, rather than under this
prospectus. The selling security holders have the sole and absolute discretion
not to accept any purchase offer or make any sale of shares if they deem the
purchase price to be unsatisfactory at any particular time.
The selling security holders may pledge their shares to their brokers
under the margin provisions of customer agreements. If a selling security holder
defaults on a margin loan, the broker may, from time to time, offer and sell the
pledged shares.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling security holders may arrange for
other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive
commissions or discounts from the selling security holders (or, if any
broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in
amounts to be negotiated, which commissions as to a particular broker or dealer
may be in excess of customary commissions to the extent permitted by applicable
law.
22
If sales of shares offered under this prospectus are made to
broker-dealers as principals, we would be required to file a post-effective
amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. In
the post-effective amendment, we would be required to disclose the names of any
participating broker-dealers and the compensation arrangements relating to such
sales.
The selling security holders and any broker-dealers or agents that are
involved in selling the shares offered under this prospectus may be deemed to be
"underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with these
sales. Commissions received by these broker-dealers or agents and any profit on
the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting
commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Any broker-dealers or agents
that are deemed to be underwriters may not sell shares offered under this
prospectus unless and until we set forth the names of the underwriters and the
material details of their underwriting arrangements in a supplement to this
prospectus or, if required, in a replacement prospectus included in a
post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus
is a part.
The selling security holders and any other persons participating in the
sale or distribution of the shares offered under this prospectus will be subject
to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations
under that act, including Regulation M. These provisions may restrict activities
of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by, the
selling security holders or any other person. Furthermore, under Regulation M,
persons engaged in a distribution of securities are prohibited from
simultaneously engaging in market making and other activities with respect to
those securities for a specified period of time prior to the commencement of
such distributions, subject to specified exceptions or exemptions. All of these
limitations may affect the marketability of the shares.
