(b) Section 1.13 of the Agreement shall be amended to read as follows:

 

“1.13 Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 1 may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a transferee or assignee of such securities that (i) is a subsidiary, parent, partner, limited partner, retired partner, member or stockholder of a Holder, (ii) is a Holder’s family member or trust for the benefit of an individual Holder, (iii) is a transferee or assignee of that certain Warrant to Purchase

Common Stock issued to First National Bank on May 18, 2000 or (iv) after such assignment or transfer, holds at least ten percent (10%) of the shares of Registrable Securities initially purchased by such Holder pursuant to the Series B Agreement, provided: (a) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned, and (b) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation the provisions of Section 1.15 below.”

Except as amended and set forth above, the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

 

5. COUNTERPARTS.

 

This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each which will be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

 

6. SEVERABILITY.

 

If any provision of this Amendment is held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Amendment and the balance of this Amendment shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
