WHEREAS, the Holder has purchased a 17% Secured Convertible Debenture in the aggregate principal amount of $4,000,000.00 (the "Debenture") pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, and Holder has the right to cause the Debenture to be converted into shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value (the "Common Stock"), of the Company, pursuant to the conversion formula set forth in the Debenture; WHEREAS, the Debenture bears interest, and at the option of the Company, subject to certain conditions, one-half of such interest may be paid by issuing additional Debentures; WHEREAS, at the option of the Company, subject to certain conditions, the Company may pre-pay/redeem some of the principal of the Debentures; WHEREAS, Holder has acquired Warrants (the "Warrants") from the Company, pursuant to which the Holder has the right to purchase in the aggregate up to One Million (1,000,000) shares of the Common Stock through the exercise of the Warrants; WHEREAS, the Company desires to grant to the Holder the registration rights set forth herein with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Debenture and the exercise of the Warrants. NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto mutually agree as follows: 1. Registrable Securities. As used herein the terms "Registrable Security" means each of the shares of Common Stock (i) issued upon the conversion of the Debenture (the "Conversion Shares") or (ii) upon exercise of the Warrant (the "Warrant Shares"), provided, however, that with respect to any particular Registrable Security, such security shall cease to be a Registrable Security when, as of the date of determination that (a) it has been effectively registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and disposed of pursuant thereto, or (b) registration under the Securities Act is no longer required for the immediate public distribution of such security. The term "Registrable Securities" means any and/or all of the securities falling within the foregoing definition of a "Registrable Security." In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization or other change in corporate structure affecting the Common Stock, such adjustment shall be made in the definition of "Registrable Security" as is appropriate in order to prevent any dilution or enlargement of the rights granted pursuant to this Section 1. 1 2. Registration. (a) The Company shall file a registration statement (the "Registration Statement") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") within sixty (60) days after the date of this Agreement in order to register the resale of the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act. Once effective, the Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement until the earlier of (i) the date that all of the Registrable Securities have been sold, or (ii) the date that the Company receives an opinion of counsel to the Company that all of the Registrable Securities may be freely traded without registration under the Securities Act, under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or otherwise. (b) The Company will initially include in the Registration Statement as Registrable Securities Three Million Six Hundred Sixty Seven Thousand (3,667,000) shares of Common Stock registered for the benefit of Holder, Two Million Five Hundred Thousand (2,500,000) shares of Common Stock registered for the benefit of M.A.G. Capital, LLC and its affiliates and One Million Five Hundred Thousand Five Hundred Thirty Three (1,500,533) shares of Common Stock registered for the benefit of certain third parties. 3. Covenants of the Company with Respect to Registration. The Company covenants and agrees as follows: (a) The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective with the SEC as promptly as possible and in no event more than 90 days after initial filing of the Registration Statement with the SEC (or within 120 days after such filing date if the SEC provides comments on the Registration Statement). Upon effectiveness and in no event more than 90 days after the initial filing of the Registration Statement with the SEC (or 120 days if the Registration Statement is subjected to a review by the SEC), the Company shall file the final prospectus with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) and provide copies to Holder. If any stop order shall be issued by the SEC in connection therewith, the Company shall use best efforts to obtain promptly the removal of such order. Following the effective date of the Registration Statement, the Company shall, upon the request of Holder, forthwith supply such reasonable number of copies of the Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus and prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act, and any other documents necessary or incidental to the public offering of the Registrable Securities, as shall be reasonably requested by the Holder to permit the Holder to make a public distribution of the Holder's Registrable Securities. The obligations of the Company hereunder with respect to the Holder's Registrable Securities are subject to the Holder's furnishing to the Company such appropriate information concerning the Holder, the Holder's Registrable Securities and the terms of the Holder's offering of such Registrable Securities as the Company may reasonably request in writing. (a) The Company shall pay all costs, fees and expenses in connection with the Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 hereof including, without limitation, the Company's legal and accounting fees, printing expenses, and blue sky fees and expenses; provided, however, that each Holder shall be solely responsible for the fees of any counsel retained by the Holder in connection with such registration and any transfer taxes or underwriting discounts, commissions or fees applicable to the Registrable Securities sold by the Holder pursuant thereto. 2 (b) The Company will take all actions which may be required to qualify or register the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement for the offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such states as are reasonably requested by each Holder of such securities, provided that the Company shall not be obligated to execute or file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation to do business under the laws of any such jurisdiction. 4. Additional Terms. (a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Holder and each underwriter, within the meaning of the Securities Act, who may purchase from or sell for any Holder, any Registrable Securities, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any other registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act with respect to the registration of the Registrable Securities, any post-effective amendment to such registration statements, or any prospectus included therein or caused by any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished or required to be furnished in writing to the Company by the Holder or underwriter expressly for use therein, which indemnification shall include each person, if any, who controls any Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act and each officer, director, employee and agent of each Holder and underwriter; provided, however, that the indemnification in this Section 4(a) with respect to any prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of Holder or underwriter (or to the benefit of any person controlling any Holder or underwriter) on account of any such loss, claim, damage or liability arising from the sale of Registrable Securities by the Holder or underwriter, if a copy of a subsequent prospectus correcting the untrue statement or omission in such earlier prospectus was provided to such Holder or underwriter by the Company prior to the subject sale and the subsequent prospectus was not delivered or sent by the Holder or underwriter to the purchaser prior to such sale and provided further, that the Company shall not be obligated to so indemnify any Holder or any such underwriter or other person referred to above unless the Holder or underwriter or other person, as the case may be, shall at the same time indemnify the Company, its directors, each officer signing the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any registration statement or any prospectus required to be filed or furnished by reason of this Agreement or caused by any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished in writing to the Company by the Holder or underwriter expressly for use therein. (b) If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding section is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, claim, damage, liability or 3 expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. (c) Neither the filing of a Registration Statement by the Company pursuant to this Agreement nor the making of any request for prospectuses by the Holder shall impose upon any Holder any obligation to sell the Holder's Registrable Securities. (d) Holder, upon receipt of notice from the Company that an event has occurred which requires a Post-Effective Amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the prospectus included therein, shall promptly discontinue the sale of Registrable Securities until the Holder receives a copy of a supplemented or amended prospectus from the Company, which the Company shall provide as soon as practicable after such notice. (e) If the Company fails to keep the Registration Statement referred to above continuously effective during the requisite period, then the Company shall, promptly upon the request of Holder, use best efforts to update the Registration Statement or file a new registration statement covering the Registrable Securities remaining unsold, subject to the terms and provisions hereof. (f) Holder agrees to provide the Company with any information or undertakings reasonably requested by the Company in order for the Company to include any appropriate information concerning the Holder in the Registration Statement or in order to promote compliance by the Company or the Holder with the Securities Act. (g) The Company agrees that it shall cause each of its directors, officers and shareholders owning ten percent (10%) or more of the Company's outstanding Common Stock to refrain from selling any shares of the Company's Common Stock until the Registration Statement has been declared effective.

(i) Other than the Registrable Securities and an additional 4,000,533 shares, registered for the benefit of M.A.G.
