Subject to the foregoing clauses (A) through (D), the Company shall file a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities so requested to be registered as soon as practicable, after receipt of the request or requests of the Initiating Holders. (b) In the event that a registration pursuant to Section 1.2 is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as part of the notice given pursuant to Section 1.2(a)(i). In such event, the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to Section 1.2 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in the underwriting arrangements required by this Section 1.2, and the inclusion of such Holder's Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent requested shall be limited to the extent provided herein. The Company shall (together with all Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders, but subject to the Company's reasonable approval. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1.2, if the managing underwriter advises the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be, underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all holders of Registrable Securities and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated among all Holders who have elected to participate in the registration (except those Holders who have indicated to the Company their decision not to distribute any of their Registrable Securities through such underwriting) in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities held by such Holders at the time of filing the registration statement. No Registrable Securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter's marketing limitation shall be included in such registration. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to any Holder to the nearest 100 shares. -5- If any Holder of Registrable Securities disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such person may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company, the managing underwriter and the Initiating Holders. In the event of any such withdrawal, the participating Holders may increase their participation pro rata up to the amount equal to the withdrawn securities. 1.3 Company Registration. (a) If at any time or from time to time the Company shall determine to register any of its securities, either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders, other than (i) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, or (ii) a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction, the Company will: (i) promptly give to each Holder written notice thereof; and (ii) include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests, made within twenty (20) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company, by any Holder. (b) If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 1.3(a)(i). In such event the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to Section 1.3 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1.3, if the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the managing underwriter may limit the Registrable Securities or other securities to be included in such registration, provided, however, that after the Company's initial firm commitment underwritten public offering (the "IPO") no such limitation shall reduce the percentage of Registrable Securities included in such registration below fifty percent (50%). In the Company's IPO, such limitation may reduce the percentage of Registrable Securities included in such registration to 0%. The Company shall so advise all Holders and other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting and the number of shares of Registrable Securities and other securities that may be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated among all Holders and such other holders in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities and other securities contractually entitled to registration in the offering held by such Holders and such other holders at the time of filing the registration statement. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company may round the number of shares allocated to any Holder or holder to the nearest 100 shares. If any Holder or holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, he may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter. In the event of any such withdrawal, the participating -6- Holders may increase their participation pro rata up to the amount equal to the withdrawn securities. (c) The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 1.3 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. 1.4 Registration on Form S-3. (a) If any Holder or Holders request that the Company file a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form to Form S-3) for a public offering of shares of the Registrable Securities the reasonably anticipated aggregate price to the public of which, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, would exceed $1,000,000, and the Company is a registrant entitled to use Form S-3 to register the Registrable Securities for such an offering, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to be registered for the offering on such form and to cause such Registrable Securities to be qualified in such jurisdictions as the Holder or Holders may reasonably request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to effect more than one registration pursuant to this Section 1.4 in any twelve (12) month period. In the event that a registration statement pursuant to this Section 1.4 is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the substantive provisions of Section 1.2(b) shall be applicable to such registration initiated under this Section 1.4. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to take any action pursuant to this Section 1.4: (i) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Act; (ii) if the Company, within ten (10) days of the receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders, gives notice of its bona fide intention to effect the filing of a registration statement with the Commission within forty-five (45) days of receipt of such request (other than with respect to a registration statement relating to a Rule 145 transaction, an offering solely to employees or any other registration which is not appropriate for the registration of Registrable Securities); provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective and the Registrable Securities which are the subject of the requested registration will be included in such Company initiated registration; or (iii) if the Company shall furnish to such Holder a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its shareholders for a registration statement to be filed at such time, then the Company's obligation to use its best efforts to file a registration statement shall be deferred for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days from the receipt of the request to file such registration by such Holder; provided, however, the Company may only defer one registration pursuant to this Section 1.4(b) in any twelve month period. 1.5 Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses, excluding underwriting discounts and commissions, incurred in connection with any registration effected pursuant to the terms of Section 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 hereof, shall be borne by the Company. -7- However, if any Holder elects to withdraw from an underwriting under Section 1.2 or 1.4, then that Holder shall be responsible for all of its Registration Expenses for that particular registration. All Selling Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of the Holders and all other registration expenses shall be borne by the Holders of such securities pro rata on the basis of the number of shares so registered. 1.6 Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration, qualification or compliance effected by the Company pursuant to this Section 1, the Company will keep each Holder advised in writing as to the initiation of each registration, qualification and compliance and as to the completion thereof. At its expense the Company will: (a) Prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective for at least one hundred twenty (120) days or until the distribution described in the Registration Statement has been completed; provided, however, in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 which are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, such one hundred twenty (120) day period shall be extended, if necessary, to keep the registration statement effective until all such Registrable Securities are sold, provided that Rule 415, or any successor rule under the Act, permits an offering on a continuous or delayed basis, and provided further that applicable rules under the Act governing the obligation to file a post-effective amendment permit, in lieu of filing a post-effective amendment that (A) includes any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Act or (B) reflects facts or events representing a material or fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement, the incorporation by reference of information required to be included in (A) and (B) above to be contained in periodic reports filed pursuant to section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (as defined below) in the registration statement. (b) As promptly as practicable, prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement. (c) Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them. (d) Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions. (e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement. -8- (f) Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing and as soon as practicable thereafter, prepare and furnish to each Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus shall not include 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 not misleading or incomplete in the light of the circumstances then existing. (g) Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed.

(a) The Company will indemnify each Holder, each of its officers and directors and partners, and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of section 15 of the Act, with respect to which registration, qualification or compliance has been effected pursuant to this Section 1, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of section 15 of the Act, against all expenses, claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based on any untrue -9- statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or any violation by the Company of any federal, state or common law rule or regulation applicable to the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance, and the Company will reimburse each such Holder, each of its officers and directors, and each person controlling such Holder, each such underwriter and each person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, provided that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission, made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by an instrument duly executed by such Holder, controlling person or underwriter and stated to be specifically for use therein. (b) Each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify the Company, each of its directors and officers, each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities covered by such a registration statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of section 15 of the Act, and each other such Holder, each of its officers and directors and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of section 15 of the Act, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company, such Holders, such directors, officers, persons, underwriters or control persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by an instrument duly executed by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of each Holder under this subsection (b) shall be limited in an amount equal to the public offering price of the shares sold by such Holder. A Holder will not be required to enter into any agreement or undertaking in connection with any registration under this Section 1.7 providing for any indemnification or contribution on the part of such Holder greater than the Holder's obligations under this Section 1.7(b). (c) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 1.7 (the "Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved -10- by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party's expense, provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall bear the expense of independent counsel for the Indemnified Party if the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interest, and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 1.7 unless the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial to an Indemnifying Party's ability to defend such action and provided further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not assume the defense for matters as to which there is a conflict of interest or separate and different defenses. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. 1.8 Information by Holder. The Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder or Holders, the Registrable Securities held by them and the distribution proposed by such Holder or Holders as the Company may request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Section 1. 1.9 Rule 144 Reporting.

The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted Investor under Sections 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 may be assigned to a transferee or assignee in connection with any transfer or assignment of Registrable Securities by an Investor provided that: (a) such transfer may otherwise be effected in accordance with applicable securities laws, and (b) such assignee or transferee acquires at least 50,000 shares of Registrable Securities (as presently constituted and subject to subsequent adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits', and the like and aggregating all shares of Registrable Securities held by entities affiliated with an Investor, including but not limited to trusts for the benefit of an Investor or Investor's immediate family members and any partners of an Investor) or the securities into which they are convertible.

(iii) As soon as practicable after each meeting of the Company's Board of Directors, and in any event within thirty (30) days thereafter, a complete and accurate copy of the minutes of such meeting as recorded by the Secretary of the Company.

(b) The provisions of Section 2.1 and this Section 2.2 shall not be in limitation of any rights which any Holder or Significant Holder may have with respect to the books and records of the Company and its subsidiaries, or to inspect their properties or discuss their affairs, finances and accounts, under the laws of the jurisdictions in which they are incorporated. (c) Anything in Section 2 to the contrary notwithstanding, no Holder or Significant Holder by reason of this Agreement shall have access to any trade secrets or classified information of the Company. Each Significant Holder hereby agrees to hold in confidence and trust and not to misuse or disclose any confidential information provided pursuant to this Section 2. The Company shall not be required to comply with this Section 2.2 in respect of any Holder whom the Company reasonably determines to be a competitor or an officer, employee, director or greater than ten percent (10%) shareholder of a competitor. (d) Each Holder who represents to the Company that it is a "venture capital operating company" for purposes of Department of Labor Regulation Section 2510.3-101 shall in addition have the right to consult with and advise the officers of the Company as to the management of the Company. 2.3 Right of Participation. (a) The Company hereby grants to each Investor holding at least 400 shares (as presently constituted and subject to subsequent adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits, and the like and aggregating all shares of Registrable Securities held by entities affiliated with an Investor, including but not limited to family members of an Investor, trusts for the benefit of an Investor or Investor's immediate family members and any partner of an Investor) of the Company's Registrable Securities the right of participation to purchase up to its Pro Rata Share, as defined below, of New Securities (as defined in Section 2.3(b)) which the Company may, from time to time, propose to sell and issue. An Investor's Pro Rata Share, for purposes of this right of participation, is the ratio that the number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Registrable Securities held by such Investor bears to the sum of the total shares of issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company, including shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of outstanding capital stock or other convertible securities other than options or warrants. (b) Except as set forth below, "New Securities" shall mean any shares of capital stock of the Company including Common Stock and Preferred Stock, whether now -14- authorized or not, and rights, options or warrants to purchase said shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, and securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may become, convertible into said shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, "New Securities" shall not include (a) securities issued pursuant to the acquisition of another corporation by the Company by merger, purchase of substantially all of the assets or other reorganization whereby the Company or its shareholders own not less than fifty-one percent (51 %) of the voting power of the surviving or successor corporation, (b) shares of the Company's Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock or related options or warrants exercisable for or convertible into such Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock issued to employees, officers and directors of, and consultants pursuant to a plan approved by the Board of Directors of the Company up to an aggregate of 2,100,000 shares (as presently constituted and subject to subsequent adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits, and the like), (c) up to five percent (5%) of outstanding capital stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis issued to customers, vendors, licensees, licensors, and equipment lessors of the Company, pursuant to any arrangement approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, (d) shares issued upon conversion of shares of Series A, Series B, Series C-D, Series E or Series F Preferred Stock, (e) shares issued in connection with any stock split or recapitalization by the Company, (f) shares issued as a dividend or distribution on Series A, Series B, Series C-D, Series E or Series F Preferred Stock or (g) shares of Series C-D Preferred Stock issued in connection with the reclassification of the Series C-1, Series C-2 and Series D Preferred Stock. (c) In the event the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities, it shall give each Investor written notice of its intention, describing the type of New Securities, and the price and terms upon which the Company proposes to issue the same. Each Investor shall have fifteen (15) days from the date of receipt of any such notice to agree to purchase up to its respective Pro Rata Share of such New Securities for the price and upon the terms specified in the notice by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the maximum quantity of New Securities it will agree to purchase. (d) In the event an Investor fails to exercise the right of participation to purchase its Pro Rata Share of such New Securities within said fifteen (15) day period, the Company shall offer such shares to the other Investors who have elected to exercise their rights to purchase New Securities. Each such participating Investor shall be entitled to purchase that number of shares of new securities not being purchased by the non-participating Investor as determined by multiplying such non-purchased New Securities by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of New Securities being purchased by the participating Investor and the denominator of which is the number of shares of New Securities being purchased by all Investors electing to purchase a portion of the New Securities which would have been sold to the non-participating Investor. Each Investor electing to purchase such non-participating Investor's New Securities shall have five (5) days from the date of receipt of any notice from the Company with respect thereto to agree to purchase its respective share of such non-participating Investor's New Securities. Thereafter, the Company shall have ninety (90) days thereafter to sell or enter into an agreement (pursuant to which the sale of New Securities covered thereby shall be closed, if at all, within sixty (60) days from the date of said agreement) to sell the New Securities not elected to be purchased by Investors at the price and upon the terms no more favorable to the purchasers of such securities then specified in the Company's notice. In the event the Company has not sold the New Securities or entered into an agreement to sell the New Securities within -15- said ninety (90) day period (or sold and issued New Securities in accordance with the foregoing within sixty (60) days from the date of said agreement), the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities, without first offering such securities in the manner provided above. (e) The right of participation granted under this Agreement shall expire (a) upon the closing of and does not apply to shares issued in connection with a Qualified IPO and (b) as to each Investor if such Investor (along with affiliated entities of such Investor) no longer holds 400 shares of Registrable Securities (as presently constituted and subject to subsequent adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits, and the like). (f) The right of participation hereunder may be assigned to a transferee or assignee in connection with any transfer or assignment of Registrable Securities by an Investor provided that: (a) such transfer may otherwise be effected in accordance with applicable securities laws, and (b) such assignee or transferee acquires at least 50,000 shares of Registrable Securities (as presently constituted and subject to subsequent adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits', and the like and aggregating all shares of Registrable Securities held by entities affiliated with an Investor, including but not limited to trusts for the benefit of an Investor or Investor's immediate family members and any partners of an Investor) or the securities into which they are convertible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rights to cause the Company to register securities may be assigned, in connection with a distribution by such Investor, to any partner, former partner, affiliate or the estate of any such partner without compliance with item (b) above, provided written notice thereof is promptly given to the Company. 2.4 Treatment of Investors. (a) No Investor will be offered (either directly or indirectly) any consideration or other rights in connection with any amendment, waiver or consent of or under the Company's articles of incorporation which is not offered to all Investors similarly situated. (b) No Investor will be offered (either directly or indirectly) any consideration or other rights, except as currently provided under the Ancillary Agreements (as defined in the Series F Agreement), in connection with any amendment or waiver of this Agreement which is not offered to all Investors similarly situated. SECTION 3 MISCELLANEOUS 3.1 Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and assigns of the parties. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations, or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. 3.2 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of California as applied to agreements among California residents entered into and to be performed entirely within California. -16- 3.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 3.4 Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement. 3.5 Notices. Unless otherwise provided, any notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon personal delivery to the party to be notified by hand or professional courier service, by facsimile upon receipt of confirmation of delivery or five (5) days after deposit with the United States Post Office, by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid and addressed to the party to be notified at the Company's addressed in the case of the Company, or for the Investors, at the address indicated on Exhibit A, or at such other address as such party may designate by ten (10) days' advance written notice to the other parties. 3.6 Amendment and Waivers. Except as may be otherwise provided in Section 3.7, any provision of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), with the written consent of the Company, the Investors holding a majority of the shares held by all Investors, and the Investors holding a majority of the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of Series C-D, Series E and Series F Preferred Stock; provided, however, that any waiver or amendment that adversely affects an Investor in a manner that is materially different than the other Investors (other than differences resulting solely from ownership of a different amount of shares) shall require the written consent of such Investor in order to be binding on such Investor; and, provided further, that the Company may amend Exhibit A to this Agreement at any time and from time to time without the consent of any Investor solely to (i) add CHANNEL and any Rights Investor (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), in each case provided that CHANNEL and such Rights Investor executes a Counterpart to this Agreement in the form of Exhibit B hereto as a party to this Agreement, or (ii) reflect the conversion to Common Stock of the Preferred Stock of any Investor whose Preferred Stock is so converted (voluntarily or automatically) pursuant to the conversion provisions of such Preferred Stock, or to reflect any adjustment to the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock due to a stock split, stock dividend or recapitalization. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section shall be binding upon all present and future Investors. 3.7 Additional Registration Rights. The Company will not grant any registration rights not set forth herein without the prior approval of the Holders of more than fifty percent (50%) of the then outstanding Registrable Securities and the Investors holding a majority of the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of Series C-D, Series E and Series F Preferred Stock; provided, however, in the event the Shareholders of the Company have legally and validly approved the sale of securities and the granting of registration rights to the holders thereof, such securities may be added to the definition of Registrable Securities hereunder and such holders shall constitute Holders hereunder to the extent they agree in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions hereof. -17- 3.8 Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement and the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. 3.9 Effect of Amendment or Waiver. Each Holder acknowledges that by the operation of Section 3.6 hereof less than all of the Holders (or transferees of Registrable Securities) may effect an amendment or waiver of provisions of this Agreement and may therefore diminish or eliminate all rights of such Holder under this Agreement even though such Holder has not consented to the amendment or waiver.
