6. Registration Rights.
(a) Registration on Form SB-2.
(i) Within sixty (60) days from the date of the Closing, the Company shall use its best efforts to ensure that a registration statement on Form SB-2 (the “Form SB-2”) is filed with the SEC and that Subscriber’s Shares are included in such Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance, pursuant to this paragraph 6(a): (A) if the Form SB-2 is not available for such offering by the Subscribers; or (B) if the Company shall furnish to Subscriber a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such registration under Form SB-2 to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form SB-2 or proportionally reduce the number of Shares included in such filing.
(ii) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall use its best efforts to ensure that a registration statement covering the Shares is filed as soon as practicable after receipt of the request or requests of the Subscriber. If the Form SB-2 is not available for such offering by Subscriber, the Company shall use its best efforts to ensure that a registration statement on Form S-1 or other available form of registration statement is filed within one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of the Closing.

(b) “Piggy Back” Registration. If at any time prior to the filing of the Form SB-2 the Company shall determine to register under the Securities Act the offer and sale of any of its Shares (other than a registration relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a Company employee benefits plan, a registration on any form which does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Shares or a registration in which the offer and sale of the only Common Stock being registered is Common Stock issuable upon conversion of debt securities which are also being registered), it shall send to each Subscriber written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice, such Subscriber shall so request in writing, the Company shall use its best efforts to ensure that such registration statement includes all or any part of the Shares that such Subscriber requests to be registered. If the total amount of shares requested by Subscriber to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities that the managing underwriter determines in its sole discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including the Shares, which the managing underwriter determines in its sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the securities so included to be (A) first, to the Company, and (B) among Subscribers of the Shares requesting to sell the Shares and to other Subscribers of Common Stock holding registration rights, pro rata among the selling shareholders according to the total amount of securities owned by each such shareholder); all of the Company’s selling shareholders, including Subscriber(s), shall not be reduced below 20% of the total number of securities to be provided in the registration. For purposes of the preceding parenthetical concerning apportionment, for any selling Subscriber which is a Subscriber of registrable Shares and which is a partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners and shareholders of such holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons shall be deemed to be a single “selling shareholder”, and any pro rata reduction with respect to such “selling shareholder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “selling shareholder,” as defined in this sentence. If any Subscriber disapproves of the terms of such underwriting, he may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter.
(c) Expenses. In the case of a registration under this Section 6, the Company shall bear all reasonable costs and expenses of such registration, including, but not limited to, SEC filing fees, “blue sky” fees and expenses, and all OTC Bulletin Board, stock exchange listing and qualification fees; provided, however, that the Company shall nave no obligation to pay or otherwise bear (i) any portion of the underwriter’s commissions or discounts attributable to the Shares being offered and sold by the Subscribers of the Shares, (ii) any stock transfer taxes, (iii) any fees of counsel for the selling Subscribers, or (iv) any of such expenses if the payment of such expenses by the Company is prohibited by the laws of a state in which such offering is qualified and only to the extent so prohibited; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Subscribers initiating such registration (in which case, all Subscribers initiating such registration shall bear such expenses pro rata based upon the total number of Shares requested to be included therein by each such Subscriber.
(d) Transfer of Registration Rights. The registration rights of a Subscriber of Shares under this Section 6 may be transferred to any transferee provided that the transferor shall provide the Company with prompt written notice of such transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the registration rights of a Subscriber under this Subscription Agreement may not be transferred to an entity, or a person controlled by, under common control with or controlling such entity, which is a direct competitor of the Company without the written consent of the Company.
(e) Termination of Registration Rights. The obligations of the Company to register any Subscriber’s registrable Shares pursuant to this Section 6 shall terminate at such time as all Shares held by and issuable to such Subscriber (and its affiliates, partners, former partners, members and former members) may be sold pursuant to Rule 144, or pursuant to Regulation S, during any ninety (90) day period.
