12.                   Piggyback Registration Rights

12.1                 If the Company determines to proceed with the preparation and filing with the SEC of a registration statement (the "Registration Statement") relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its common shares, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the 1933 Act) or its then equivalents relating to equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, the Company shall send to the Subscriber written notice of such determination and, if within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, the Subscriber shall so request in writing, the Company will cause the registration under the 1933 Act of the Shares and the Warrant Shares and (the "Registrable Securities"), provided that if at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any of its common shares and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay registration of such common shares, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to the Subscriber and, thereupon, (i) in the case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to register the Registrable Securities in connection with such registration, and (ii) in the case of a determination to delay registering, shall be permitted to delay registering the Registrable Securities for the same period as the delay in registering such other common shares.

The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing sentence shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including, without limitation, fees and expenses (A) with respect to filings required to be made with the OTC Bulletin Board or other exchange or quotation service on which the


- 11 -

common stock of the Company is then listed for trading, and (B) in compliance with applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws), (ii) printing expenses (including, without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities and of printing prospectuses if the printing of prospectuses is reasonably requested by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement), (iii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (iv) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, (v) 1933 Act liability insurance, if the Company so desires such insurance, and (vi) fees and expenses of all other persons retained by the Company in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement.

12.5                 The Subscriber shall 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 1933 Act and Section 20 of the 1934 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 incurred, to the extent arising out of or based solely upon: (x) the Subscriber's failure to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the 1933 Act or (y) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any 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 not misleading (i) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by the Subscriber to the Company specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or (ii) to the extent that such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding the Subscriber furnished in writing to the Company by the Subscriber expressly for use therein, or (iii) to the extent that such information relates to the Subscriber or the Subscriber's proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by the Subscriber expressly for use in the Registration Statement or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (z) the use by the Subscriber of an outdated or defective Registration Statement after the Company has notified the Subscriber in writing that the Registration Statement is outdated or defective. In no event shall the liability of the Subscriber hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the Subscriber upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

12.6                 If a claim for indemnification hereunder is unavailable to either the Company or the Subscriber (in each case, an "Indemnified Party or Indemnified Parties", as applicable) (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


- 12 -

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 this Subscription, 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 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, no Subscriber shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the proceeds actually received by the Subscriber from the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that the Subscriber has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, except in the case of fraud by the Subscriber.
