NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company, the Placement Agents and each of the Buyers hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1.         Definitions.  As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

(e)     “Registrable Securities” means (i) the Conversion Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred, (ii) the Warrant Shares issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, (iii) any shares of capital stock issued or issuable with respect to the Conversion Shares, the Series B Preferred, the Warrant Shares or the Warrants as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, exchange or similar event or otherwise, or as required pursuant to the Certificate Amendment, without regard to any limitations on conversions of the Series B Preferred or the exercise of the Warrants, (iv) any shares of capital stock of any entity issued in respect of the capital stock referenced in the immediately preceding clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) as a result of a merger, consolidation, sale of assets, sale or exchange of capital stock or other similar transaction provided, that shares of Common Stock that are Registrable Securities shall cease to be Registrable Securities upon (i) any sale pursuant to a Registration Statement or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or (ii) any sale or transfer to any person or entity which by virtue of Section 9 of this Agreement, is not entitled to the rights provided by this Agreement.

(f)     “Registration Statement” means a registration statement or registration statements of the Company filed under the Securities Act and covering all of the Registrable Securities.

(g)    Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

SECTION 2.         Registration.

(a)     Mandatory Registration.  The Company shall use its best efforts to prepare and, as soon as practicable but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the Closing Date (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) (the “Filing Deadline”), file with the Commission

2

a Registration Statement on Form S-3 covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities.  In the event that Form S-3 is unavailable for such a registration, the Company shall use such other form as is available for such a registration, subject to the provisions of Section 2(d) of this Agreement.  The Registration Statement prepared pursuant hereto shall register for resale at least 6,057,277 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred and exercise of the Warrants by the Investors from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by such Investors. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable, but not later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date (the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, however, that if the Commission reviews the Registration Statement and requires the Company to make modifications thereto, then the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date.  In the event that, after the Closing Date and before the Registration Statement is declared effective, the offices of the Commission are closed due to acts of God, war or terror, the Effectiveness Deadline will be extended by a number of days equal to the days of any such closure.

(b)    Allocation of Registrable Securities. The initial number of Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement and each increase in the number of Registrable Securities included therein shall be allocated pro rata among the Investors based on the number of Registrable Securities held by each Investor at the time the Registration Statement covering such initial number of Registrable Securities or increase thereof is declared effective by the Commission.  In the event that an Investor sells or otherwise transfers any of such Investor’s Registrable Securities, each transferee shall be allocated the portion of the then remaining number of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement allocable to the transferor.  In no event shall the Company include any securities other than Registrable Securities on any Registration Statement without the prior written consent of the Investors holding at least a majority of the Registrable Securities.

(c)     Legal Counsel.  Subject to Section 5 of this Agreement, the Investors holding at least a majority of the Registrable Securities shall have the right to select one legal counsel to review and comment upon any registration pursuant to this Agreement (the “Legal Counsel”), which the Investors agree shall be Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP or such other counsel as thereafter designated in writing by the holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities.  The Investors hereby waive any conflict of interest or potential conflict of interest that may arise as a result of the representation of such Investors by Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP in connection with the subject matter of this Agreement.  The provision will not prohibit any other counsel to an Investor from reviewing and commenting on any registration filed pursuant to this Agreement at no cost to the Company.

(d)    Ineligibility for Form S-3.  If Form S-3 is not available for the registration of the resale of Registrable Securities hereunder or the Company is not permitted by the Securities Act or the Commission to use Form S-3, then the Company shall (i) register the resale of the Registrable Securities on another appropriate form reasonably acceptable to the holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities and (ii) undertake to register the Registrable Securities on Form S-3 as soon as such form is available; provided, however, that the Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement then in effect until such time as a

3

Registration Statement on Form S-3 covering all of the Registrable Securities has been declared effective by the Commission.

(e)     Sufficient Number of Shares Registered.  In the event the number of shares registered under a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(a) of this Agreement is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities or all of an Investor’s allocated portion of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2(b) of this Agreement, the Company shall amend the Registration Statement, or file a new Registration Statement (on the short form available therefor, if applicable), or both, so as to cover at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the number of such Registrable Securities other than shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and one hundred percent (100%) of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants as of the trading day immediately preceding the date of the filing of such amendment and/or new Registration Statement, in each case, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than fifteen (15) days after the necessity therefor arises.  The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof.  The calculation of the number of shares sufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities shall be made without regard to any limitations on the conversion of the Series B Preferred or the exercise of the Warrants, and such calculation shall assume that all of the Series B Preferred are then convertible into, and all of the Warrants are then exercisable for, shares of Common Stock at the then prevailing Conversion Rate (as defined in the Series B Preferred) or Warrant Exercise Price (as defined in the Warrants), as applicable.

(f)     Effect of Failure to File and Obtain and Maintain Effectiveness of Registration Statement.  If (i) a Registration Statement covering all the Registrable Securities is not filed with the Commission on or before the Filing Deadline or is not declared effective by the Commission on or before the Effectiveness Deadline, (ii) a Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities required to be covered thereby, as described in Section 2(e) of this Agreement, is not filed with the Commission on or before the deadline described in Section 2(e) of this Agreement or is not declared effective by the Commission on or before the deadline described in Section 2(e) of this Agreement, (iii) on any day after such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission, sales of all of the Registrable Securities required to be included on such Registration Statement cannot be made (other than during an Allowable Grace Period (as defined in Section 3(n) of this Agreement)) pursuant to such Registration Statement (including, without limitation, because of a failure to keep such Registration Statement effective, to disclose such information as is necessary for sales to be made pursuant to such Registration Statement or to register a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock), or (iv) a Grace Period exceeds the length of an Allowable Grace Period (each of the items described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above shall be referred to as a “Registration Delay”), then, as partial relief for the damages to the Investors by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Registrable Securities (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available at law or in equity), the Company shall pay (1) to each holder of the Series B Preferred or Conversion Shares an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the initial amount paid for such Series B Preferred or the related Conversion Shares multiplied by (ii) the product of (I) the percentage determined by dividing (A) the Applicable Percentage (as defined below) by (B) 30, multiplied by (II) the sum of (x) the number of days (including any partial days) after the Filing Deadline or the deadline described in Section 2(e) of this Agreement, as applicable, that the Registration Statement is not filed with the Commission, plus (y) the number of days (including

4

any partial days) after the Effectiveness Deadline or the deadline described in Section 2(e) of this Agreement that the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission, plus (z) after the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission, the number of days (including any partial days) that such Registration Statement is not available (other than during an Allowable Grace Period) for the sale of all the Registrable Securities and (2) to each holder of the Warrants or Warrant Shares an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the aggregate Exercise Price for such Warrant or any related Warrant Shares, multiplied by (ii) the product of (I) the percentage determined by dividing (A) the Applicable Percentage by (B) 30, multiplied by (II) the sum of (x) the number of days (including any partial days) after the Filing Deadline or the deadline described in Section 2(e) of this Agreement, as applicable, that the Registration Statement is not filed with the Commission, plus (y) the number of days (including any partial days) after the Effectiveness Deadline or the deadline described in Section 2(e) of this Agreement, as applicable, that the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission, plus (z) after the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission, the number of days (including any partial days) that such Registration Statement is not available (other than during an Allowable Grace Period) for the sale of all Registrable Securities.  The “Applicable Percentage” shall mean (A) for periods that only include days on or before the date that is 60 days after the commencement of a Registration Delay, eight-tenths percent (0.8%), (B) for periods that only include days after date that is 60 days after the commencement of a Registration Delay, one and two-tenths percent (1.2%) and (C) for periods that include days both before and after the date that is that is 60 days after the commencement of a Registration Delay, a percentage equal to a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of (i) the number of days in such period that are on or before the date that is 60 days after the commencement of such Registration Delay multiplied by eight-tenths percent (0.8%) and (ii) the number of days in such period that are after the date that is 60 days after the commencement of such Registration Delay multiplied by one and two-tenths percent (1.2%) and the denominator of which shall be the total number of days comprising such period.  The payments to which a holder shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 2(f) are referred to herein as “Registration Delay Payments.”  The Registration Delay Payments shall be paid in cash on the earlier of (A) the last day of the calendar month during which such Registration Delay Payments are incurred and (B) the third Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Registration Delay Payments is cured.  In the event the Company fails to make Registration Delay Payments in a timely manner, such Registration Delay Payments shall bear interest at the rate of one and six-tenths percent (1.6%) per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full.

SECTION 3.         Related Obligations.  At such time as the Company is obligated to file a Registration Statement with the Commission pursuant to Sections 2(a), 2(d) or 2(e) of this Agreement, the Company will use reasonable efforts to effect the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and, pursuant thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:

(a)     The Company shall promptly prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to all of the Registrable Securities (but in no event later than the applicable Filing Deadline) and use its reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement relating to all of the Registrable Securities required to be covered thereby to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing (but in no event later than the applicable Effectiveness Deadline).  The Company shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, keep each

5

Registration Statement effective pursuant to Rule 415 at all times until the earlier of (i) the date as of which all of the Investors (other than any Investors who are “affiliates” of the Company as such term is used in Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act) may sell all of the Registrable Securities without restriction pursuant to Rule 144(k) (or the successor rule thereto) promulgated under the Securities Act (assuming a Cashless Exercise of any Warrants) or (ii) the date on which all of the Investors shall have sold all of the Registrable Securities (the “Registration Period”), which Registration Statement, as of its filing and effective dates and each day thereafter (including all amendments or supplements thereto, as of their respective filing and effective dates and each day thereafter), shall not contain any 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, and the prospectus contained in such Registration Statement, as of its filing date and each day thereafter (including all amendments and supplements thereto, as of their respective filing dates and each day thereafter), shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated thereon, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

(b)    Subject to Section 3(n) of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any successor rule thereto) promulgated under the Securities Act, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act.  In the case of amendments and supplements to a Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement which are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to this Section 3(b)) by reason of the Company filing a report on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q or Form 8-K or any analogous report under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, or any similar successor statute (the “Exchange Act”), the Company shall have incorporated such report by reference into such Registration Statement, if applicable, or shall file such amendments or supplements with the Commission on the same day on which the Exchange Act report is filed which created the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement such Registration Statement and prospectus.

(c)     The Company shall permit Legal Counsel to review and comment upon each Registration Statement, prospectus and all amendments and supplements thereto at least one (1) Business Day prior to their filing with the Commission.  The Company shall furnish to the Investors and Legal Counsel, without charge, (i) promptly after receipt of such correspondence, copies of all correspondence from the Commission or the staff of the Commission to the Company or its representatives relating to each Registration Statement, prospectus and all amendments and supplements thereto, (ii) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the Commission, one (1) copy of each Registration Statement, prospectus and all amendments and supplements thereto, including all exhibits and financial statements related thereto, and (iii) promptly upon the effectiveness of each Registration Statement and each amendment and supplement thereto, one (1) copy of the prospectus included in each such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto.  The Company agrees that it will, and it will cause its counsel to, consider in good faith any comments or objections from Legal Counsel as to the form or content of each Registration Statement, prospectus and all amendments or supplements

6

thereto or any request for acceleration of the effectiveness of each Registration Statement, prospectus and all amendments or supplements thereto.

(d)    The Company shall furnish to each Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in any Registration Statement, without charge to such Investor, (i) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the Commission, at least one copy of such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto, including all exhibits and financial statements and each preliminary prospectus, (ii) upon the effectiveness of each Registration Statement, such number of copies of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto as such Investor may reasonably request, and (iii) such other documents, including copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as such Investor may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities.

(e)     Subject to Section 3(n) of this Agreement, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to (i) promptly register and qualify, unless an exemption from registration and qualification applies, the resale of the Registrable Securities under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of all applicable jurisdictions in the United States as any holder of Registrable Shares reasonably requests in writing, (ii) promptly prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) promptly take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) promptly take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction, except in such jurisdictions where the Company is subject to service of process.  The Company shall promptly notify each Investor who holds Registrable Securities and Legal Counsel of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.

(f)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Company shall notify each Investor and Legal Counsel in writing of the happening of any event as a result of which (i) the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (ii) the prospectus related to such Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and, subject to Section 3(n) of this Agreement, promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement and prospectus to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver such number of copies of such supplement or amendment to each Investor and Legal Counsel as such Investor or Legal Counsel may reasonably request.  The Company shall also promptly notify each Investor and Legal Counsel in writing (i) when a prospectus and

7

each prospectus supplement or amendment thereto has been filed, and when a Registration Statement and each amendment (including post-effective amendments) and supplement thereto has been declared effective by the Commission (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to each Investor and Legal Counsel by facsimile on the same day of such effectiveness and by overnight mail), (ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, and (iii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that an amendment (including any post-effective amendment) or supplement to a Registration Statement or prospectus would be appropriate (subject to Section 3(n) hereof).

(g)    Subject to Section 3(n) of this Agreement, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to (i) prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, (ii) if such an order or suspension is issued, obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest practicable moment and notify each holder of Registrable Securities and Legal Counsel of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

(h)    The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning an Investor provided to the Company unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with United States federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other final, non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, or (iv) such information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement or any other agreement.  The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning an Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, unless ordered or requested by the Commission or other governmental authority not to do so, give prompt written notice to such Investor and allow such Investor, at the Investor’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information.

(i)      The Company shall use its best efforts to (i) cause all the Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange, or (ii) secure designation and quotation of all the Registrable Securities on The Nasdaq National Market, or (iii) if the Company is unsuccessful in satisfying the preceding clause (i) or (ii), to secure the inclusion for quotation on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market for such Registrable Securities and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to arrange for at least two market makers to register with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (“NASD”) as such with respect to such Registrable Securities.  The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section 3(i).

(j)      In connection with any sale or transfer of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement, the Company shall cooperate with the Investors who hold Registrable

8

Securities being offered and, to the extent applicable, facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legend) representing the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the Investors may reasonably request and, registered in such names as the Investors may request.

(k)     If requested by an Investor, the Company shall (i) as soon as practicable, incorporate in each prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement such information as an Investor reasonably requests to be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, (ii) as soon as practicable, make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment, and (iii) as soon as practicable, supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement and prospectus if reasonably requested by an Investor holding any Registrable Securities.

(l)      The Company shall comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission in connection with any registration hereunder.

(m)    Within two (2) Business Days after a Registration Statement is ordered effective by the Commission, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for the Registrable Securities (with copies to the Investors whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration Statement) confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.

(n)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time after a Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission, the Company may delay the disclosure of material non-public information concerning the Company if the disclosure of such information at the time is not, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, in the best interests of the Company (a “Grace Period”); provided, however, that the Company shall promptly (i) notify the Investors in writing of the existence of material non-public information giving rise to a Grace Period (provided that the Company shall not disclose the content of such material non-public information to the Investors) and the date on which the Grace Period will begin, and (ii) notify the Investors in writing of the date on which the Grace Period ends; provided further, that no single Grace Period shall exceed thirty (30) consecutive days, during any three hundred sixty-five (365) day period, the aggregate of all of the Grace Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of sixty (60) days and the first day of any Grace Period must be at least two (2) trading days after the last day of any prior Grace Period (an “Allowable Grace Period”).  For purposes of determining the length of a Grace Period, the Grace Period shall be deemed to begin on and include the date the Investors receive the notice referred to in clause (i) and shall end on and include the later of the date the Investors receive the notice referred to in clause (ii) and the date referred to in such notice; provided, however, that no Grace Period shall be longer than an Allowable Grace Period.  The provisions of Section 3(g) of this Agreement shall not be applicable during the period of any Allowable Grace Period.  Upon expiration of the Grace Period, the Company shall again be bound by the first sentence of Section 3(f) of this Agreement.

SECTION 4.         Obligations Of The Investors.

(a)     At least seven (7) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Investor in writing of the information the Company requires from each such Investor if such Investor elects to have any of such Investor’s Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement.  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 a particular Investor that such Investor shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it as shall be reasonably required to effect the effectiveness of the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request.  Each Investor shall promptly notify the Company of any material change with respect to such information previously provided to the Company by such Investor.

(b)    Each Investor agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of any Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Investor has notified the Company in writing of such Investor’s election to exclude all of such Investor’s Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement, in which case, such Investor does not need to cooperate with the Company until it notifies the Company of its desire to include one or more share of the Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement.

(c)     Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Sections 3(g) or 3(n) of this Agreement or the first sentence of Section 3(f) of this Agreement, such Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statements covering such Registrable Securities until such Investor’s receipt of the copies of the amended or supplemented prospectus contemplated by Section 3(g) of this Agreement or the first sentence of Section 3(f) of this Agreement or receipt of notice that no amendment or supplement is required and, if so directed by the Company, such Investor shall deliver to the Company (at the expense of the Company) or destroy (and deliver to the Company a certificate of destruction) all copies of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice (other than a single file copy, which such Investor may keep) in such Investor’s possession.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a transferee of an Investor in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Series B Preferred, and/or the Warrants, as applicable, in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which an Investor has entered into a contract for sale prior to the Investor’s receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(g) of this Agreement or the first sentence of Section 3(f) of this Agreement and for which the Investor has not yet settled.

counsel for the Company shall be paid by the Company.  The Company shall also reimburse the Investors for the fees and disbursements of Legal Counsel in connection with registration, filing or qualification pursuant to Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement which amount shall be limited to Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) for each Registration Statement.  In addition, the Company shall pay all of the Investors’ reasonable costs (including fees and disbursements of Legal Counsel) incurred in connection with the successful enforcement of the Investors rights under this Agreement.

SECTION 6.         Indemnification.  In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:

(a)     To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Investor, the directors, officers, members, partners, employees, agents, representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls any Investor within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several, (collectively, “Claims”) incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the Commission, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration Statement or any amendment (including post-effective amendments) or supplement thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are offered (“Blue Sky Filing”), or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus if used prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement, or contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if any) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation caused by the Company, or its directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives acting on its behalf, of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (ii) being, collectively, “Violations”).  Subject to Section 6(c) of this Agreement, the Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Persons, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a):  (i) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person for such Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto;

11

(ii) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of the Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company, including a corrected prospectus, if such prospectus or corrected prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(d) of this Agreement; and (iii) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement.

(b)    In connection with any Registration Statement in which an Investor is participating, each such Investor agrees to severally and not jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a) of this Agreement, the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, an “Indemnified Party”), against any Claims or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claims or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement and, subject to Section 6(c) of this Agreement, such Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 of this Agreement shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of such Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, further, that the Investor shall be liable under this Section 6(b) for only that amount of the Claims and Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Investors as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnification agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(b) shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the preliminary prospectus was corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus, as then amended or supplemented.

(c)     Promptly after an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 has knowledge of any Claim as to which such Indemnified Person reasonably believes indemnity may be sought or promptly after such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party receives notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of such Claim, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof

12

with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding; provided, further, that the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for the reasonable fees and expense of more than one (1) separate legal counsel for such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party.  In the case of an Indemnified Person, the legal counsel referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be selected by the Investors holding at least a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement to which the Claim relates.  The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such action or Claim.  The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto.  No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent.  No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a full release from all liability in respect to such Claim and action and proceeding.  After indemnification as provided for under this Agreement, the rights of the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made.  The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party as provided in this Agreement shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

(d)    The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.

(e)     The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

SECTION 7.         Contribution.  To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 of this Agreement to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that:  (i) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not have been

13

liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement, (ii) no Person involved in the sale of Registrable Securities which Person is guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) in connection with such sale shall be entitled to contribution from any Person involved in such sale of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation, and (iii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.  The provisions of this Section 7 shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of the investigation made by or on behalf of the beneficiaries of this Section 7 and shall survive the transfer of Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.         Reporting.

(a)     Reports Under The Exchange Act.  With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit the Investors to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration (“Rule 144”), the Company shall use its best efforts to:

(1)           make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

(2)           file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and

(3)           furnish to each Investor, so long as such Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (A) a written statement by the Company, if true, that it has complied with the applicable reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (B) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and copies of such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (C) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

(b)    Rule 144A Information. The Company shall, upon request of any Investor, make available to such Investor the information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) (or any successor rule) under the Securities Act.

SECTION 9.         Assignment of Registration Rights.  The rights under this Agreement shall be automatically assignable by the Investors to any transferee of at least $250,000 of Registrable Securities if:  (i) the Investor agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within a reasonable time after such assignment; (ii) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of (a) the name and address of such transferee or assignee, and (b) the securities with respect to which such rights are being transferred or assigned; (iii) immediately following such transfer or assignment, the further

14

disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws; (iv) at or before the time the Company receives the written notice contemplated by clause (ii) of this sentence, the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the obligations of an Investor under this Agreement; (v) such transfer shall have been made in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Series B Preferred and the Warrants; and (vi) such transfer shall have been conducted in accordance with all applicable federal and state securities laws.

SECTION 10.       Amendment of Registration Rights.  Any provision of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any provision of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and Investors who then hold at least a majority of the Registrable Securities.  Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 10 shall be binding upon each Investor and the Company.  No such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less than all of the holders of the Registrable Securities.  No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of this Agreement unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this Agreement.

SECTION 11.       Miscellaneous.

(a)     A Person is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns or is deemed to own of record such Registrable Securities.  If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two or more Persons with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from such record owner of such Registrable Securities.

(b)    Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered:  (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile; or (iii) one (1) Business Day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same.  The addresses and facsimile numbers for such communications shall be:

If to a Buyer, to its address and facsimile number set forth on the Schedule of Buyers attached hereto as Exhibit A, with copies to such Buyer’s representatives as set forth on the Schedule of Buyers, or to such other address and/or facsimile number and/or to the attention of such other Person as the recipient party has specified by written notice given to each other party five (5) days prior to the effectiveness of such change.  Written confirmation of receipt (A) given by the recipient of such notice, consent, waiver or other communication, (B) mechanically or electronically generated by the sender’s facsimile machine containing the time, date, recipient facsimile number and an image of the first page of such transmission, or (C) provided by a courier or overnight courier service shall be rebuttable evidence of personal service, receipt by facsimile or receipt from a nationally recognized overnight delivery service in accordance with clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above, respectively.

16

(c)     Failure of any party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement or otherwise, or delay by a party in exercising such right or remedy, shall not operate as a waiver thereof.

(d)    All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York.  Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting the City of New York, borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper.  Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such 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.  If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.  EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

(e)     This Agreement, the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Warrants and the documents referenced herein and therein constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.  There are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein and therein.  This Agreement, the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Warrants and the documents referenced herein and therein supersede all prior agreements and understandings among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

(i)      Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as the other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(j)      All consents and other determinations required to be made by the Investors pursuant to this Agreement shall be made, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, by Investors holding at least a majority of the Registrable Securities, determined as if all of the Series B Preferred held by Investors then outstanding have been converted into Registrable Securities and all Warrants then outstanding have been exercised for Registrable Securities without regard to any limitations on conversion of the Series B Preferred or on exercise of the Warrants.
