Certain Covenants of WWAT. ---------------------------- 4.1 Right to Request Registration. Upon the written request of ----------------------------- Purchaser at any time the Company complies with the eligibility requirements of General Instruction I to Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form) to register the resale of the Company's Common Stock on a registration statement on such form under the Securities Act, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly file with the SEC, cause to be declared effective and maintain the effectiveness of, a registration statement on such form providing for the resale on a continuous basis, pursuant to Rule 415, by Purchaser of such number of Shares and Warrant Shares requested by Purchaser to be registered thereby. Such registration shall be on terms customarily agreed to for such registration rights, and at the request of either party the parties hereto shall enter into a more detailed agreement setting forth the registration rights of Purchaser hereunder. 4.2 Registration and Listing. -------------------------- (a) In the event the Company determines, in its sole discretion, to register a public offering of its securities under the Securities Act, or in the alternative, grants registration and related rights to another shareholder without registering a public offering, the Company shall provide the Purchaser registration and related rights with respect to the Shares and the Warrant Shares which shall include reasonable and customary indemnification, filing delay agreements, agreement not to sell, underwriting and the like, on terms as favorable to the Purchaser as are granted to any current or future stockholder of the Company and in connection therewith the Purchaser and the Company shall agree to such other registration rights as are reasonable and customary, including indemnification, filing delay provisions, agreement not to sell, underwriting arrangements and the like. The rights of the Purchaser under this Section 4.2(a) shall inure to the benefit of the transferee in the case of a transfer to an affiliate or to a transferee of Shares and/or Warrants representing at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the Common Stock (including Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants) purchased hereunder. The registration obligations of the Company shall terminate five (5) years after the date hereof. (b) If any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable hereunder (the "Registrable Shares") require registration with or approval of ------------------- any governmental authority under any federal or state or other applicable law before such Common Stock may be issued or delivered, WWAT will in good faith and as expeditiously as possible endeavor to cause such Common Stock to be duly registered or approved, as the case may be, unless such registration or approval is required solely because of a breach of a Purchaser's representation contained in Article 3. So long as the Common Stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, NASDAQ or listed on any national securities exchange, WWAT will, if permitted by the rules of such system or exchange, quote or list and keep quoted or listed on such system or exchange all Common Stock issued or issuable hereunder. 4.3 REPORTS UNDER SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934. --------------------------------------------- With a view to making available to the holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit a holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3, the Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to: (a) make and keep public information available, as required by Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act; (b) file with the Securities and Exchange Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"); and ------------ (c) furnish to any holder, so long as the holder owns any Registrable Shares, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any holder of any rule or regulation of the Commission which permits the selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to such form. The rights of the Purchaser under this Section 4.3 shall inure to the benefit of the transferee in the case of a transfer to an affiliate or to a transferee of Shares and/or Warrants representing at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the Common Stock (including Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants) purchased hereunder. The obligations of the Company under this Section 4.3 shall terminate five (5) years after the date hereof. 4.4 RESERVATION OF SHARES. Subject to Section 1(d) of the --------------------- Warrant, the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issue or delivery upon exercise of the Warrants, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall then be issuable or deliverable upon the exercise of all Warrants. Such shares of Common Stock shall, when issued or delivered in accordance with the terms of the Warrants, be duly and validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable. 5. Indemnification. --------------- 5.1 Indemnification by WWAT. In addition to all other sums due -------------------------- hereunder or provided for in this Agreement, WWAT agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and its respective "Affiliates" (as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act) and their respective officers, directors, agents, representatives, employees, subsidiaries, partners and controlling persons (each, an "indemnified party") ----------------- from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses (including reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) or other liabilities ("Liabilities") resulting from any breach of any covenant, ----------- agreement, representation or warranty of WWAT in this Agreement; provided, however, that WWAT shall not be liable under this Section 5.1: (a) for any amount paid in settlement of claims without WWAT's consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or (b) to the extent that it is finally judicially determined that such Liabilities resulted primarily from the willful misconduct or bad faith of such indemnified party; provided, further, that if and to the ----------------- extent that such indemnification is held, by final judicial determination to be unenforceable, in whole or in part, for any reason, WWAT shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such indemnified Liability. In connection with the obligation of WWAT to indemnify for expenses as set forth above, WWAT further agrees to reimburse each indemnified party for all such expenses (including reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) as they are incurred by such indemnified party; provided, however, that if an --------- ------- indemnified party is reimbursed hereunder for any expenses, such reimbursement of expenses shall be refunded to the extent it is finally judicially determined that the Liabilities in question resulted primarily from the willful misconduct or bad faith of such indemnified party. 5.2 Notification; Procedure. Each indemnified party under Section ----------------------- 5.1 will, promptly after the receipt of notice of the commencement of any action or other proceeding against such indemnified party in respect of which indemnity may be sought from WWAT under Section 5.1, notify WWAT in writing of the commencement thereof. The omission of any indemnified party so to notify WWAT of any such action shall not relieve WWAT from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party (i) other than pursuant to Section 5.1 or (ii) under Section 5.1 unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in WWAT's forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses. In case any such action or other proceeding shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify WWAT of the commencement thereof, WWAT shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that any ----------------- indemnified party may, at its own expense, retain separate counsel to participate in such defense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any action or proceeding in which both WWAT and an indemnified party is, or is reasonably likely to become, a party, such indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at WWAT's expense and to control its own defense of such action or proceeding if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to such indemnified party, (a) there are or may be legal defenses available to such indemnified party or to other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to WWAT or (b) any conflict or potential conflict exists between WWAT and such indemnified party that would make such separate representation advisable; provided, however, that in no event shall WWAT be required to pay -------- ------- fees and expenses under this sentence of Section 5.1 for more than one firm of attorneys in any jurisdiction in any one legal action or group of related legal actions. The Company agrees that WWAT will not, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding relating to the matters contemplated hereby (if any indemnified party is a party thereto or has been actually threatened to be made a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the Purchaser and each other indemnified party from all liability arising or that may arise out of such claim, action or proceeding. No such settlement shall impose any restriction on the future conduct of any indemnified party without such party's consent, which may be withheld in such party's discretion. The rights accorded to indemnified parties hereunder shall be in addition to any rights that any indemnified party may have at common law, by separate agreement or otherwise. 6. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations, ---------------------------------------------- warranties and agreements made by WWAT and Purchaser in this Agreement or in any certificate or other instrument delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the Closing and any investigation and discovery by WWAT or by Purchaser, as the case may be, made at any time with respect thereto; provided, however, that, other -------- ------- than with respect to Section 2.7 (for which there shall be no time limit), neither Purchaser nor WWAT shall have any liability to the other for any misrepresentation, inaccuracy or omission in any representation or warranty, or any breach of any representation or warranty, unless the party asserting a claim with respect to any thereof gives to the other written notice of such claim on or before the date which is two years following the Closing Date. 7. Miscellaneous. ------------- 7.1 Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire ----------------- agreement among the parties with respect to the sale and purchase contemplated hereby. 7.2 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and -------------- construed under the laws of the State of Delaware. 7.3 Counterparts.

The invalidity of any portion hereof shall not ------------ affect the validity, force, or effect of the remaining portions hereof. If it is ever held that any restriction hereunder is too broad to permit enforcement of such restriction to its fullest extent, the parties agree that a court of competent jurisdiction may enforce such restriction to the maximum extent permitted by law against those for whom it may be enforceable, and each party hereby consents and agrees that such scope may be judicially modified accordingly in any proceeding brought to enforce such restriction. 7.5 Further Assurances. The parties hereto shall, without ------------------- additional consideration, execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered such further instruments and shall take or cause to be taken such further actions as are necessary to carry out more effectively the intent and purpose of this Agreement. 7.6 Successors and Assigns.
