including, without limitation, as a result of the Company's issuance of the
Securities and the Investors' ownership of the Securities.

          (r) Disclosure. The Company confirms that neither it nor any officers,
directors or Affiliates, has provided any of the Investors (other than Excluded
Investors) or their agents or counsel with any information that constitutes or
might constitute material, nonpublic information (other than the existence and

business and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Schedules to
this Agreement, furnished by or on the behalf of the Company are true and
correct in all material respects and do not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the

made, not misleading. To the Company's knowledge, except for the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, no event or circumstance has occurred or
information exists with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or its
or their business, properties, operations or financial conditions, which, under
applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or announcement
by the Company but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed. The

makes or has made any representations or warranties with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby other than those set forth in the Transaction

than Excluded Investors) is acting solely in the capacity of an arm's length
purchaser with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby. The Company further acknowledges that no
Investor (other than Excluded Investors) is acting as a financial advisor or
fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect to this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and any advice given by any
Investor (other than Excluded Investors) or any of their respective
representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is merely incidental to the
Investors' purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to each
Investor that the Company's decision to enter into this Agreement has been based
solely on the independent evaluation of the transactions contemplated hereby by
the Company and its representatives.

          (t) Patents and Trademarks. The Company and its Subsidiaries own, or
possess adequate rights or licenses to use, all trademarks, trade names, service
marks, service mark registrations, service names, patents, patent rights,
copyrights, inventions, licenses, approvals, governmental authorizations, trade
secrets and other intellectual property rights ("INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS")
that are of such nature and significance to the business that the failure to own
or have the right to use would have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company does
not have any


                                      -10-



knowledge of any infringement by the Company or its Subsidiaries of Intellectual
Property Rights of others.

          (u) Insurance. The Company and the Subsidiaries are insured by
insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks
and in such amounts as the Company believes are prudent and customary in the

certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal,
state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their
respective businesses as described in the SEC Reports ("MATERIAL PERMITS"),
except where the failure to possess such permits does not, individually or in
the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect, and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any written
notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any Material
Permit.

          (w) Transactions With Affiliates and Employees. Except as set forth or
incorporated by reference in the Company's SEC Reports and to the knowledge of
the Company, none of the officers, directors or employees of the Company is
presently a party to any transaction that would be required to be reported on
Form 10-K with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than for ordinary
course services as employees, officers or directors), including any contract,
agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or
by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise
requiring payments to or from any such officer, director or employee or, to the
Company's knowledge, any corporation, partnership, trust or other entity in

an officer, director, trustee or partner.

          (x) Internal Accounting Controls; Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
The Company and the Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting
controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are
executed in accordance with management's general or specific authorizations,
(ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and to
maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in
accordance with management's general or specific authorization, and (iv) the

reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any
differences. The Company has established and maintains disclosure controls and
procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the
Exchange Act), which are designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the
Exchange Act is made known to the Company's principal executive officer and its
principal financial officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure. The Company's certifying officers have evaluated the
effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end
of the period covered by the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 (the
"Evaluation Date"). The Company presented in its Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2005 the conclusions of the certifying officers about the
effectiveness of such disclosure controls and procedures based on their
evaluation as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there has been
no significant change in the Company's internal control over


                                      -11-



financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13(a)-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f)
under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

          (y) Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Company is in compliance in all material
respects with applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and
applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC thereunder, except where

Adverse Effect.

Subsidiaries nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any director, officer, agent,
employee or other Person acting on behalf of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries has, in the course of its actions for, or on behalf of, the Company
(i) used any corporate funds for any unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment
or other unlawful expenses relating to political activity; (ii) made any direct

Company nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) has any outstanding Indebtedness (as

instrument relating to any Indebtedness, the performance of which, in the
judgment of the Company's officers, has or is expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Schedule 3.1(aa) provides a detailed description of the material

all Environmental Laws (as hereinafter defined), (ii) have received all permits,

indefinitely, and is able to bear such risk and is able to afford a complete
loss of such investment.

          (e) Access to Information. Such Investor acknowledges that it has
reviewed the Disclosure Materials and has been afforded: (i) the opportunity to
ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from,
representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the

acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which
such Investor is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule,
regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities

such Investor to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

          (h) Illegal Transactions. No Investor, directly or indirectly, and no
Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with any Investor,
has engaged in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including,
without limitation, any Short Sales involving any of the Company's securities)
since the time that such Investor was first contacted by the Company, the


                                      -15-



Agent or any other Person regarding an investment in the Company. Such Investor
covenants that neither it nor any Person acting on its behalf or pursuant to any

or foreign regulated brokers.

          (i) Restricted Securities. The Investors understand that the
Securities are characterized as "restricted securities" under the U.S. federal
securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a
transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and
applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under
the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances.

          (j) Legends. It is understood that, except as provided in Section
4.1(b) of this Agreement, certificates evidencing such Securities may bear the

          (k) No Legal, Tax or Investment Advice. Such Investor understands that
nothing in this Agreement or any other materials presented by or on behalf of
the Company to the Investor in connection with the purchase of the Securities
constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. Such Investor has consulted such
legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed
necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of the Securities. Such
Investor understands that the Agent has acted solely as the agent of the Company
in this placement of the Securities, and that the Agent makes no representation
or warranty with regard to the merits of this transaction or as to the accuracy
of any information such Investor may have received in connection therewith. Such
Investor acknowledges that he has not relied on any information or advice
furnished by or on behalf of the Agent.

          (l) Suspension of Prospectus. The Investors acknowledge that there may
occasionally be times when the Company, based on the advice of its counsel,
determines that, subject to the limitations and conditions of Section 6.1(d), it
must suspend the use of the prospectus forming a part of the Registration
Statement until such time as an amendment to the Registration Statement has been
filed by the Company and declared effective by the SEC or until the Company has
amended or supplemented such prospectus.

          (m) Investor Certificate. The information contained in the Investor
Certificate in the form of Exhibit B-3/B-4 attached hereto delivered by the
Investor in connection with this Agreement is complete and accurate in all
respects as of the date of this Agreement and will be correct as of the
effective date of the Registration Statement; provided that the Investor shall
be entitled to update such information by providing written notice thereof to
the Company, and the Investor is an "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501
of Regulation D under the Securities Act on the basis indicated therein. The
Investor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Agent and each
officer, director or control person thereof, who is or may be a party or is or

action, suit or proceeding,


                                      -16-



whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of or
arising from any actual or alleged misrepresentation or misstatement of facts or
omission to represent or state facts made or alleged to have been made by the
Investor to the Company or omitted or alleged to have been omitted by the
Investor, concerning the Investor or the Investor's authority to invest or
financial position in connection with the offering, including, without
limitation, any such misrepresentation, misstatement or omission contained in
the Agreement or any other document submitted by the Investor, against losses,
liabilities and expenses for which the Company or any officer, director or
control person has not otherwise been reimbursed (including attorney's fees,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably
incurred by the Company or such officer, director or control person in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding. For the avoidance of doubt,
such indemnification shall be the several, and not joint, obligation of each
Investor with respect to its own action or inaction as provided above.

the registration statement questionnaire in the form of Exhibit B-2 attached
hereto delivered by the Investor in connection with this Agreement is complete

have the authority to issue shares of Common Stock, in excess of those being
issued in connection with this offering, and that the Company may issue
additional shares of Common Stock from time to time. The issuance of additional
shares of Common Stock may cause dilution of the existing shares of Common Stock
and a decrease in the market price of such existing shares.

          (p) Agent. The Investor acknowledges that the Company has engaged the
Agent in connection with this offering and, as consideration for its services,
has agreed to pay the Agent a cash commission equal to six and one-half (6-1/2%)

the offering is confidential and non-public and agrees that all information
about the offering shall be kept in confidence by the Investor until the public
announcement of the offering by the Company. The Investor acknowledges that the
foregoing restrictions on the Investor's use and disclosure of any such
confidential, non-public information restricts the Investor from trading in the
Company's securities to the extent such trading is on the basis of material,
non-public information of which the Investor is aware.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                         OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

     4.1 Transfer Restrictions.

          (a) The Investors covenant that the Securities will only be disposed
of pursuant to an effective registration statement under, and in compliance with
the requirements of, the Securities


                                      -17-



Act or pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of
the Securities Act, and in compliance with any applicable state securities laws.
In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an
effective registration statement or to the Company, or pursuant to Rule 144(k),
the Company may require the transferor to provide to the Company an opinion of
counsel selected by the transferor, the form and substance of which opinion
shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such
transfer does not require registration under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company hereby consents to and agrees to register on the
books of the Company and with its transfer agent, without any such legal
opinion, except to the extent that the transfer agent requests such legal
opinion, any transfer of Securities by an Investor to an Affiliate of such
Investor, provided that the transferee certifies to the Company that it is an
"accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and
provided that such Affiliate does not request any removal of any existing
legends on any certificate evidencing the Securities.

          (b) The Investors agree to the imprinting, so long as is required by
this Section 4.1(b), of the following legend on any certificate evidencing any
of the Securities:

     THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
     COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN
     EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED
     (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND,
     ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE
     REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE
     EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION
     REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE
     SECURITIES LAWS OR BLUE SKY LAWS.

Certificates evidencing Securities shall not be required to contain such legend
or any other legend (i) after the Securities have been sold pursuant to a
Registration Statement that is effective under the Securities Act covering the
resale of such Securities, (ii) following any sale of such Securities pursuant
to Rule 144 if the holder provides the Company with a legal opinion (and the
documents upon which the legal opinion is based) reasonable acceptance to the
Company to the effect that the Securities can be sold under Rule 144, (iii) if
the holder provides the Company with a legal opinion (and the documents upon
which the legal opinion is based) reasonably acceptable to the Company to the
effect that the Securities are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k), or (iv) if
the holder provides the Company with a legal opinion (and the documents upon
which the legal opinion is based) reasonably acceptable to the Company to the
effect that the legend is not required under applicable requirements of the
Securities Act (including controlling judicial interpretations and
pronouncements issued by the Staff of the SEC). The Company shall cause its
counsel to issue the legal opinion included in the Transfer Agent Instructions
to the Transfer Agent on the Effective Date. Following the Effective Date or at
such earlier time as a legend is no longer required for certain Securities, the
Company will no later than three Trading Days following the delivery by an
Investor to the Company or the Transfer Agent of (i) a legended certificate
representing such Securities, (ii) an opinion of counsel to the extent required
by Section 4.1(a) and (iii) reasonable written assurances to the effect that any
of the Shares or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, sold or to be sold by such
Investor have been,


                                      -18-



or will be, sold in accordance with the plan of distribution set forth in the
Prospectus and in compliance with the prospectus delivery requirements under the
Securities Act, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Investor a certificate
representing such Securities that is free from all restrictive and other
legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give
instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set
forth in this Section. Notwithstanding any other provisions contained in this
Agreement, the Company shall as soon as practicable (but not later than five
Business Days after the Registration Statement has been declared effective by
the SEC ) remove the restrictive legends from the Common Shares. The Company
shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Company's transfer agent
promptly after the Effective Date if required by the Company's transfer agent to
effect the removal of the legend hereunder. The Company shall issue a blanket
letter of instruction to its transfer agent placing a "stop transfer" order on
the Common Shares, which stop transfer order may be lifted upon receipt by the
transfer agent of written certification that the Common Shares are being sold
pursuant to an effective registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
such legend removal provisions shall not apply to any Investor who is not a
"qualified institutional buyer" (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities
Act ) at such time as the legend is required to be removed. In the event the
Investor is holding Common Shares without a legend pursuant to this provision,
the Investor hereby agrees to immediately halt any sales of such Common Shares
if the Company delivers written notification to such Investor that sales
pursuant to the Registration Statement have been suspended and the Registration
Statement is no longer valid for such purpose.

     4.2 Furnishing of Information. Until the date that any Investor owning
Shares or Warrant Shares may sell all of them under Rule 144(k) of the
Securities Act (or any successor provision), the Company covenants to use its
commercially reasonable efforts 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 the Exchange Act. The
Company further covenants that it will take such further action as any holder of
Securities may reasonably request to satisfy the provisions of this Section 4.2.

     4.3 Integration. The Company shall not, and shall use its commercially
reasonably efforts to ensure that no Affiliate thereof shall, sell, offer for
sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security
(as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with
the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the
registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities to the
Investors or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities
for purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market.

     4.4 Reservation of Securities. The Company shall maintain a reserve from
its duly authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the
Transaction Documents in such amount as may be required to fulfill its
obligations to issue such Shares under the Transaction Documents. In the event
that at any time the then authorized shares of Common Stock are insufficient for
the Company to satisfy its obligations to issue such Shares under the
Transaction Documents, the Company shall promptly take such actions as may be
required to increase the number of authorized shares.


                                      -19-



     4.5 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall, on or before
9:30 a.m., New York time, on the first Trading Day following execution of this
Agreement, issue a press release disclosing all material terms of the
transactions contemplated hereby. On the Closing Date, the Company shall file a
Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC (the "8-K FILING") describing the terms
of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and including as
exhibits to such Current Report on Form 8-K this Agreement (including the
schedules and the names, and addresses of the Investors and the amount(s) of
Securities respectively purchased) and the form of Warrants, in the form
required by the Exchange Act. Thereafter, the Company shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to timely file any filings and notices required by the SEC or
applicable law with respect to the transactions. Except as herein provided, the
Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Investor, or include the
name of any Investor in any press release without the prior written consent of
such Investor, unless otherwise required by law. The Company shall not, and
shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and its and each of their respective
officers, directors, employees and agents not to, provide any Investor with any
material nonpublic information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
from and after the issuance of the above referenced press release without the
express written consent of such Investor.

     4.6 Use of Proceeds. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the
sale of the Securities for working capital and general corporate purposes. The
Company also may use a portion of the net proceeds, currently intended for
general corporate purposes, to acquire or invest in technologies, products or
services that complement its business, although the Company has no present plans
or commitments and is not currently engaged in any material negotiations with
respect to these types of transactions. Pending these uses, the Company intends
to invest the net proceeds from this offering in short-term, interest-bearing,
investment-grade securities, or as otherwise pursuant to the Company's customary
investment policies.

                                   ARTICLE VI
                               REGISTRATION RIGHTS

     6.1 Registration Statement.

          (a) As promptly as possible, and in any event on or prior to the
Filing Date, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a Registration
Statement covering the resale of all Registrable Securities for an offering to
be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415. The Registration Statement
shall be on Form S-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for
resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, in which case such registration
shall be on another appropriate form in accordance with the Securities Act and
the Exchange Act) and shall contain (except if otherwise directed by the
Investors or requested by the SEC) the "Plan of Distribution" in substantially
the form attached hereto as Exhibit D.

          (b) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause
the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as promptly as
possible after the filing thereof, but in any event prior to the Required
Effectiveness Date, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep
the Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until
the earlier of (i) the second anniversary of the Closing or (ii) the date that
all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold
or can be sold publicly under Rule 144(k) (the "EFFECTIVENESS PERIOD"). The
Company shall notify the promptly (and in any event within two Trading Days)
after receiving notification from the SEC that the Registration Statement has
been declared effective.


                                      -21-



          (c) Should an Event (as defined below) occur, then upon the occurrence
of such Event, and on every monthly anniversary thereof until the applicable
Event is cured, as partial relief for the damages suffered therefrom by the
Investors (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available
under this Agreement, at law or in equity), the Company shall pay to each
Investor an amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to
1.0% of (i) the number of Securities held by such Investor as of the date of
such Event, multiplied by (ii) the Purchase Price paid by such Investor for such
Securities then held; provided, however, that the total amount of payments
pursuant to this Section 6.1(c) shall not exceed, when aggregated with all such
payments paid to all Investors ten percent (10%) of the aggregate Purchase
Price. The payments to which an Investor shall be entitled pursuant to this
Section 6.1(c) are referred to herein as "EVENT PAYMENTS." Any Event Payments
payable pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a pro rated basis for any
portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event. In the event the Company fails
to make Event Payments in a timely manner, such Event Payments shall bear
interest at the rate of 1.0% per month (pro rated for partial months) until paid
in full. All pro rated calculations made pursuant to this paragraph shall be
based upon the actual number of days in such pro rated month.

For such purposes, each of the following shall constitute an "EVENT":

               (i) the Registration Statement is (A) not filed on or prior to
the Filing Date or (B) not declared effective on or prior to the Required
Effectiveness Date;

               (ii) the days in which sales are suspended during the
Effectiveness Period either by the SEC or by written notice from the Company to
the Investors, pursuant to Section 6.1(d) below; or

               (iii) the days in which the Common Stock is not listed or quoted,
or is suspended from trading, on an Eligible Market for a period of three
Trading Days (which need not be consecutive Trading Days) during the
Effectiveness Period.

          (d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, after
30 consecutive Trading Days of continuous effectiveness of the initial
Registration Statement filed and declared effective pursuant to this Agreement,
the Company may, by written notice to the Investors, suspend sales under a
Registration Statement after the Effective Date thereof and/or require that the
Investors immediately cease the sale of shares of Common Stock pursuant thereto
and/or defer the filing of any subsequent Registration Statement if the Company
is engaged in a material merger, acquisition or sale and the Board of Directors
determines in good faith, by appropriate resolutions, that, as a result of such
activity, (i) it would be materially detrimental to the Company (other than as
relating solely to the price of the Common Stock) to maintain a Registration
Statement at such time or (ii) it is in the best interests of the Company to
suspend sales under such registration at such time. Upon receipt of such notice,
each Investor shall immediately discontinue any sales of Registrable Securities
pursuant to such registration until such Investor has received copies of a
supplemented or amended Prospectus or until such Investor is advised in writing
by the Company that the then-current Prospectus may be used and has received
copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed
incorporated by reference in such Prospectus. In no event, however, shall this
right be exercised to suspend sales beyond the period during which (in the good
faith determination of the Company's Board of Directors) the failure to require
such suspension would be materially detrimental to the Company. The Company's
rights under this Section 6(d) may be


                                      -22-



exercised for a period of no more than 20 Trading Days at a time and not more
than three times in any twelve-month period, without such suspension being
considered as part of an Event Payment determination. Immediately after the end
of any suspension period under this Section 6(d), the Company shall take all
necessary actions (including filing any required supplemental prospectus) to
restore the effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement and the
ability of the Investors to publicly resell their Registrable Securities
pursuant to such effective Registration Statement.

          (e) The Company shall not, from the date hereof until the Effective
Date of the Registration Statement, prepare and file with the SEC 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 any
registration statement or post-effective amendment to a registration statement
(or supplement thereto) relating to the Company's employee benefit plans
registered on Form S-8.

     6.2 Registration Procedures. In connection with the Company's registration
obligations hereunder, the Company shall:

          (a) (i) Subject to Section 6.1(d), prepare and file with the SEC such
amendments, including post-effective amendments, to each Registration Statement
and the Prospectus used in connection therewith 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 SEC such
additional Registration Statements 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; (iii)
respond as promptly as reasonably possible, and in any event within 12 Trading
Days (except to the extent that the Company reasonably requires additional time
to respond to accounting comments), to any comments received from the SEC with
respect to the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto; and (iv) 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 applicable period in accordance
with the intended methods of disposition by the Investors thereof set forth in
the Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so
supplemented.

          (b) Notify the Agent as promptly as reasonably possible, and (if
requested by the Agent confirm such notice in writing no later than two Trading
Days thereafter, of any of the following events: (i) the SEC notifies the
Company whether there will be a "review" of any Registration Statement; (ii) the
SEC comments in writing on any Registration Statement; (iii) any Registration
Statement or any post-effective amendment is declared effective; (iv) the SEC or
any other Federal or state governmental authority requests any amendment or
supplement to any Registration Statement or Prospectus or requests additional
information related thereto; (v) the SEC issues any stop order suspending the
effectiveness of any Registration Statement or initiates any Proceedings for
that purpose; (vi) the Company receives notice of any suspension of the
qualification or exemption from qualification of any Registrable Securities for
sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threat of any Proceeding for such
purpose; or (vii) the financial statements included in any Registration
Statement become ineligible for inclusion therein or any Registration Statement
or Prospectus or other document contains any untrue statement of a material fact
or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the


                                      -23-



statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not
include any material non-public information in any notice provided under this
Section.

          (c) Use its reasonable Best Efforts to avoid the issuance of or, if
issued, obtain the withdrawal of (i) any order suspending the effectiveness of
any Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or
exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in
any jurisdiction, as soon as possible.

          (d) Promptly deliver to each Investor, without charge, a reasonable
number of copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of
prospectus) and each amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons may
reasonably request. The Company hereby consents to the use of such Prospectus
and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Investors in
connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by
such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto to the extent permitted
by federal and state securities laws and regulations.

          (e) (i) In the time and manner required by each Trading Market,
prepare and file with such Trading Market an additional shares listing
application covering all of the Registrable Securities; (ii) take all steps
necessary to cause such Registrable Securities to be approved for listing on
each Trading Market as soon as possible thereafter; and (iii) except as a result
of the Excluded Events, during the Effectiveness Period, maintain the listing of
such Registrable Securities on each such Trading Market or another Eligible
Market.

          (f) Prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its
reasonable Best Efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling
Investors 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 Investor requests in writing, to keep each such
registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective for so long as
required, but not to exceed the duration of the Effectiveness Period, and to do
any and all other acts or things reasonably 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
obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a
foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it
is not so qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing
business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so subject.

          (g) Cooperate with the Investors to facilitate the timely preparation
and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be delivered
to a transferee pursuant to a Registration Statement, which certificates shall
be free, to the extent permitted by this Agreement and under law, of all
restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable Securities to be in such
denominations and registered in such names as any such Investors may reasonably
request.

          (h) Upon the occurrence of any event described in Section 6.2(b)(vii),
as promptly as reasonably 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


                                      -24-



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.

          (i) Cooperate with any reasonable due diligence investigation
undertaken by the Investors in connection with the sale of Registrable
Securities, including, without limitation, by making available documents and
information; provided that the Company will not deliver or make available to any
Investor material, nonpublic information unless such Investor requests in
advance in writing to receive material, nonpublic information and agrees to keep
such information confidential.

          (j) Comply in all material respects with all rules and regulations of
the SEC applicable to the registration of the Securities.

          (k) 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 any particular Investor or to make any Event
Payments set forth in Section 6.1(c) to such Investor that such Investor furnish
to the Company the information specified in Exhibits B-1, B-2 and B-3 hereto and
such other information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities and other
shares of Common Stock held by it and the intended method of disposition of the
Registrable Securities held by it (if different from the Plan of Distribution
set forth on Exhibit D hereto) as shall be reasonably required to effect the
registration of such Registrable Securities and shall complete and execute such
documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably
request.

     6.3 Registration Expenses. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses
incident to the performance of or compliance with Article VI of this Agreement
by the Company, including without limitation (a) all registration and filing
fees and expenses, including without limitation those related to filings with
the SEC, any Trading Market and in connection with applicable state securities
or Blue Sky laws, (b) printing expenses (including without limitation expenses
of printing certificates for Registrable Securities), (c) messenger, telephone
and delivery expenses, (d) fees and expenses of all other Persons retained by
the Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, and (e) all listing fees to be paid by the Company to the
Trading Market.

     6.4 Indemnification.

          (a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall, notwithstanding
any termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless each Investor,
the officers, directors, partners, members, agents and employees of each of
them, each Person who controls any such Investor (within the meaning of Section
15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers,
directors, partners, members, agents and employees of each such controlling
Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any
and all Losses, as incurred, arising out of or relating to (i) any
misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the
Company in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or
document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any breach of any covenant,
agreement or obligation


                                      -25-



of the Company contained in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate,
instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (iii) any cause of
action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnified Party (as defined
in Section 6.4(c) below) by a third party (including for these purposes a
derivative action brought on behalf of the Company), arising out of or resulting
from (x) execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Transaction
Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby
or thereby, (y) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part,
directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, or
(z) the status of Indemnified Party as holder of the Securities or (iv) any
untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any form of Company prospectus or in
any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Company 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 (A) such untrue statements,
alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based solely upon
information regarding such Investor furnished in writing to the Company by such
Investor for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such
Investor or such Investor's proposed method of distribution of Registrable
Securities, or (B) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type
specified in Section 6.2(b)(v)-(vii), the use by such Investor of an outdated or
defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such Investor in writing
that the Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such
Investor of the Advice contemplated in Section 6.5 or (C) with respect to any
prospectus, if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in
such prospectus was corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus, as then
amended or supplemented, if such corrected prospectus was timely made available
by the Company to the Holder, and the Holder seeking indemnity hereunder was
advised in writing not to use the incorrect prospectus prior to the use giving
rise to Losses.

          (b) Indemnification by Investors. Each Investor 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 or 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) arising solely out of 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 out of or
relating to 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, but only to the extent that such untrue
statement or omission is contained in any information so furnished by such
Investor in writing to the Company specifically for inclusion in such
Registration Statement or such Prospectus or to the extent that (i) such untrue
statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding such
Investor furnished to the Company by such Investor in writing expressly for use
therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Investor or such
Investor's proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was
reviewed and expressly approved by such Investor expressly for use in the
Registration Statement (it being understood that the information provided by the
Investor to the Company in Exhibits B-1, B-2 and B-3 and the Plan of
Distribution


                                      -26-



set forth on Exhibit D, as the same may be modified by such Investor and other
information provided by the Investor to the Company in or pursuant to the
Transaction Documents constitutes information reviewed and expressly approved by
such Investor in writing expressly for use in the Registration Statement), such
Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto
or (ii) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in
Section 6.2(b)(v)-(vii), the use by such Investor of an outdated or defective
Prospectus after the Company has notified such Investor in writing that the
Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Investor of
the Advice contemplated in Section 6.5. In no event shall the liability of any
selling Investor hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the
net proceeds received by such Investor upon the sale of the Registrable
Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

          (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 shall promptly notify the Person
from whom indemnity is sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") in writing, and the
Indemnifying Party shall 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: (i) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and
expenses; or (ii) 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 (iii) the named parties to any
such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified
Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party 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 the reasonable fees and expenses of separate counsel shall be at the
expense of the Indemnifying Party). It being understood, however, that the
Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one such Proceeding
(including separate Proceedings that have been or will be consolidated before a
single judge) be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm
of attorneys at any time for all Indemnified Parties, which firm shall be
appointed by a majority of the Indemnified Parties. 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. No
Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified
Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any
Indemnified Party is a party, 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 reasonable 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


                                      -27-



manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified
Party, as incurred, within 20 Trading 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 Indemnifying Party may require such Indemnified Party to undertake to
reimburse all such fees and expenses to the extent it is finally judicially
determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification
hereunder).

          (d) Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section 6.4(a)
or (b) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party (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 fault 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 6.4(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.

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 6.4(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.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.4(d), no Investor shall be
required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by
which the net proceeds actually received by such Investor from the sale of the
Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any
damages that such Investor has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 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.

     6.5 Dispositions. Each Investor agrees that it will comply with the
Securities Act as applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable
Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement and shall sell its Registrable
Securities in accordance with the Plan of Distribution set forth in the
Prospectus. Each Investor further agrees that, upon receipt of a notice from the
Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Sections
6.2(b)(v), (vi) or (vii), such Investor will discontinue disposition of such
Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement until such Investor is
advised in writing (the "ADVICE") by the Company that the use of the applicable
Prospectus may be resumed. The Company may provide appropriate stop orders to
enforce the provisions of this paragraph.


                                      -28-



     6.6 No Piggyback on Registrations. Neither the Company nor any of its
security holders (other than the Investors in such capacity pursuant hereto) may
include securities of the Company in the Registration Statement other than the
Registrable Securities.

     6.7 Piggy-Back Registrations. If at any time during the Effectiveness
Period, other than any suspension period referred to in Section 6.1(d), there is
not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable
Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the SEC 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, then the Company shall send to each Investor not then eligible to sell
all of their Registrable Securities under Rule 144 in a three-month period,
written notice of such determination and if, within ten days after receipt of
such notice, any such Investor shall so request in writing, the Company shall
include in such registration statement all or any part of such Registrable
Securities such Investor requests to be registered. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that, in connection with any underwritten public
offering, the managing underwriter(s) thereof shall impose a limitation on the
number of shares of Common Stock which may be included in the Registration
Statement because, in such underwriter(s)' judgment, marketing or other factors
dictate such limitation is necessary to facilitate public distribution, then the
Company shall be obligated to include in such Registration Statement only such
limited portion of the Registrable Securities with respect to which such
Investor has requested inclusion hereunder as the underwriter shall permit;
provided, however, that (i) the Company shall not exclude any Registrable
Securities unless the Company has first excluded all outstanding securities, the
holders of which are not contractually entitled to inclusion of such securities
in such Registration Statement or are not contractually entitled to pro rata
inclusion with the Registrable Securities and (ii) after giving effect to the
immediately preceding proviso, any such exclusion of Registrable Securities
shall be made pro rata among the Investors seeking to include Registrable
Securities and the holders of other securities having the contractual right to
inclusion of their securities in such Registration Statement by reason of demand
registration rights, in proportion to the number of Registrable Securities or
other securities, as applicable, sought to be included by each such Investor or
other holder. If an offering in connection with which an Investor is entitled to
registration under this Section 6.7 is an underwritten offering, then each
Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration
Statement shall, unless otherwise agreed by the Company, offer and sell such
Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering using the same underwriter or
underwriters and, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, on the same terms
and conditions as other shares of Common Stock included in such underwritten
offering and shall enter into an underwriting agreement in a form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the underwriter or underwriters. Upon
the effectiveness of the registration statement for which piggy-back
registration has been provided in this Section 6.7, any Event Payments
(including interest thereon) payable to an Investor whose Securities are
included in such registration statement shall cease to accrue under Section
6.1(c) hereof.


                                      -29-



                                  ARTICLE VII
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

     7.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by the Company or any
Investor, by written notice to the other parties, if the Closing has not been
consummated by the third Business Day following the date of this Agreement;
provided that no such termination will affect the right of any party to sue for
any breach by the other party (or parties).

     7.2 Fees and Expenses. Except as expressly set forth in the Transaction
Documents to the contrary, each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its
advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and all other expenses
incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement. The Company shall pay all Transfer
Agent fees, stamp taxes and other taxes and duties levied in connection with the
sale and issuance of their applicable Securities.

     7.3 Entire Agreement. The Transaction Documents, together with the Exhibits
and Schedules thereto, contain the entire understanding of the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, which the parties
acknowledge have been merged into such documents, exhibits and schedules. At or
after the Closing, and without further consideration, the Company will execute
and deliver to the Investors such further documents as may be reasonably
requested in order to give practical effect to the intention of the parties
under the Transaction Documents.

     7.4 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 earliest of (a) the date of transmission, if
such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile or email at the
facsimile number or email address specified in this Section prior to 6:30 p.m.
(New York City time) on a Trading Day, (b) the next Trading Day after the date
of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile or
email at the facsimile number or email address specified in this Section on a
day that is not a Trading Day or later than 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on
any Trading Day, (c) the Trading Day following the date of deposit with a
nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (d) upon actual receipt by
the party to whom such notice is required to be given. The addresses, facsimile
numbers and email addresses for such notices and communications are those set
forth on the signature pages hereof, or such other address or facsimile number
as may be designated in writing hereafter, in the same manner, by any such
Person.

     7.5 Amendments; Waivers. No provision of this Agreement may be waived or
amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by
the Company and each of the Investors or, in the case of a waiver, by the party
against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver of any default
with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall
be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent
default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor
shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in
any manner impair the exercise of any such right. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a
matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Investors under Article VI may
be


                                      -30-



given by Investors holding at least a majority of the Registrable Securities to
which such waiver or consent relates.

     7.6 Construction. 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. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed
to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no
rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

     7.7 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The
Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of the Investors. Any Investor may assign its
rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom such Investor assigns or
transfers any Securities, provided (i) such transferor agrees in writing with
the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement
is furnished to the Company after such assignment, (ii) the Company is furnished
with written notice of (x) the name and address of such transferee or assignee
and (y) the Registrable 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
assignee is restricted under the Securities Act and applicable state securities
laws, (iv) such transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to the
transferred Securities, by the provisions hereof that apply to the "Investors"
and (v) such transfer shall have been made in accordance with the applicable
requirements of this Agreement and with all laws applicable thereto.

     7.8 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted
assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced
by, any other Person, except that each Indemnified Party is an intended third
party beneficiary of Section 6.4 and (in each case) may enforce the provisions
of such Sections directly against the parties with obligations thereunder.

     7.9 Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. THE CORPORATE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF DELAWARE SHALL GOVERN ALL ISSUES CONCERNING THE RELATIVE RIGHTS OF THE
COMPANY AND ITS STOCKHOLDERS. ALL QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE CONSTRUCTION,
VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY
AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE COMPANY
AND INVESTORS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE
STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS SITTING IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK, BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN
FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE BROUGHT BY THE COMPANY OR ANY INVESTOR
HEREUNDER, IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR WITH ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR
DISCUSSED HEREIN (INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO THE ENFORCEMENT OF ANY OF THE
TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS), AND HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, AND AGREE NOT TO ASSERT IN
ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY THE COMPANY OR ANY INVESTOR, ANY CLAIM
THAT IT IS NOT PERSONALLY SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY SUCH COURT, OR THAT
SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING IS IMPROPER. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF PROCESS AND CONSENTS TO


                                      -31-



PROCESS BEING SERVED IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY MAILING A COPY
THEREOF VIA REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL OR OVERNIGHT DELIVERY (WITH EVIDENCE OF
DELIVERY) 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 CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL BE DEEMED
TO LIMIT IN ANY WAY ANY RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.
THE COMPANY AND INVESTORS HEREBY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY.

     7.10 Survival. The representations and warranties, agreements and covenants
contained herein shall survive the Closing.

     7.11 Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts,
all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement
and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and
delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not
sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by
facsimile transmission or email attachment, such signature shall create a valid
and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature
is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or
email-attached signature page were an original thereof.

     7.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid
or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the
remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid
and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so
agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement.

     7.13 Replacement of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing
any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue
or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation
thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or
instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of such loss, theft or destruction and the execution by the holder
thereof of a customary lost certificate affidavit of that fact and an agreement
to indemnify and hold harmless the Company for any losses in connection
therewith. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument under such
circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs associated with
the issuance of such replacement Securities.

     7.14 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights
provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the
Investors and the Company will be entitled to seek specific performance under
the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be
adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of
obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in
any action for specific performance of any such obligation (other than in
connection with any action for temporary restraining order) the defense that a
remedy at law would be adequate. Nothing herein shall limit the Investor's right
to pursue actual damages for the failure of the Company and its transfer agent
to deliver certificates representing any Common Shares and Warrant Shares as
required pursuant to this Agreement and the Warrant.


                                      -32-



     7.15 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or
payments to any Investor hereunder or any Investor enforces or exercises its
rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of
such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged
by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company
by a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law (including, without
limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable
cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or
part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued
in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such
enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

     7.16 Adjustments in Share Numbers and Prices. In the event of any stock
split, subdivision, dividend or distribution payable in shares of Common Stock
(or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof
to receive directly or indirectly shares of Common Stock), combination or other
similar recapitalization or event occurring after the date hereof and prior to
the Closing, each reference in any Transaction Document to a number of shares or
a price per share shall be amended to appropriately account for such event.

     7.17 Independent Nature of Investors' Obligations and Rights. The
obligations of each Investor under any Transaction Document are several and not
joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be
responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other
Investor under any Transaction Document. The decision of each Investor to
purchase Securities pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Investor
independently of any other Investor 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 which may have been made or given by any
other Investor or by any agent or employee of any other Investor, and no
Investor or any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any other
Investor (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information,
materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained herein or in any
Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto,
shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a
joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the
Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such
obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Document. Each
Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such
Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no other
Investor will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring
its investment hereunder. Each Investor 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 Investor to be joined as an additional party in
any proceeding for such purpose.
