------------
the Company.

------------
or any similar Federal statute, and the rules and regulations of the Commission

-------- -------
that shares of Common Stock which are Registrable Shares shall cease to be
Registrable Shares (i) upon any sale pursuant to a Registration Statement or

2. Required Registrations.
----------------------
(a) At any time after April 11, 1996, a Stockholder or Stockholders
holding in the aggregate at least 20% of the Registrable Shares may request, in
writing, that the Company effect the registration on Form S-1 or Form S-2 (or
any successor form) of Registrable Shares owned by such Stockholder or
Stockholders that either (i) constitute at least 20% of the Registrable Shares
or (ii) have an aggregate offering price of at least $2,000,000 (based on the
then current market price or fair value). If the holders initiating the
registration intend to distribute the Registrable Shares by means of an
underwriting, they shall so advise the Company in their request. In the event
such registration is underwritten, the right of other Stockholders to
participate shall be conditioned on such Stockholders' participation in such
underwriting. Upon receipt of any such request, the Company shall promptly give
written notice of such proposed registration to all Stockholders. Such
Stockholders shall have the right, by giving written notice to the Company
within 30 days after the Company provides its notice, to elect to have included
in such registration such of their Registrable Shares as such Stockholders may
request in such notice of election; provided that if the underwriter (if any)
managing the
-2-
offering determines that, because of marketing factors, all of the Registrable
Shares requested to be registered by all Stockholders may not be included in the
offering, then all Stockholders who have requested registration shall
participate in the registration pro rata based upon the number of Registrable
Shares which they have requested to be so registered. Thereupon, the Company
shall, as expeditiously as possible, use its best efforts to effect the
registration on Form S-1 or Form S-2 (or any successor form) of all Registrable
Shares which the Company has been requested to so register (provided, that the
Company may in its discretion delay the filing of any registration statement for
a period of up to 90 days from the date of the giving of written notice of such
delay).
(b) At any time that the Company is eligible to file a Registration
Statement on Form S-3 with respect to offerings by its stockholders (or any
successor form relating to secondary offerings), a Stockholder or Stockholders
holding in the aggregate at least 25% of the Registrable Shares may request the
Company, in writing, to effect the registration on Form S-3 (or such successor
form), of Registrable Shares owned by such Stockholder or Stockholders. Upon
receipt of any such request, the Company shall promptly give written notice of
such proposed registration to all Stockholders. Such Stockholders shall have the
right, by giving written notice to the Company within 30 days after the Company
provides its notice, to elect to have included in such registration such of
their Registrable Shares as such Stockholders may request in such notice of
election; provided that if the underwriter (if any) managing the offering
determines that, because of marketing factors, all of the Registrable Shares
requested to be registered by all Stockholders may not be included in the
offering, then all Stockholders who have requested registration shall
participate in the registration pro rata based upon the number of Registrable
Shares which they have requested to be so registered. Thereupon, the Company
shall, as expeditiously as possible, use its best efforts to effect the
registration on Form S-3 (or such successor form) of all Registrable Shares
which the Company has been requested to so register.
(c) The Company shall not be required to effect more than one
registration pursuant to paragraph (a) above, except that it shall be required
to effect up to two additional registrations pursuant to paragraph (a) above
during any twelve-month period if, at the time of such registration, the Company
is not eligible to use Form S-3. In addition, the Company shall not be required
to effect any registration (other than on Form S-3 or any successor form
relating to secondary offerings) within six months after the effective date of
any other Registration Statement of the Company.
(d) If at the time of any request to register Registrable Shares
pursuant to this Section 2, the Company is engaged or has fixed plans to engage
within 30 days of the time of the request in a registered public offering as to
which the
-3-
Stockholders may include Registrable Shares pursuant to Section 3 or is engaged
in any other activity which, in the good faith determination of the Company's
Board of Directors, would be adversely affected by the requested registration to
the material detriment of the Company, then the Company may at its option direct
that such request be delayed for a period not in excess of six months from the
effective date of such offering or the date of commencement of such other
material activity, as the case may be, such right to delay a request to be
exercised by the Company not more than once in any two-year period.
3. Incidental Registration.
-----------------------
(a) Whenever the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement
(other than pursuant to Section 2) at any time and from time to time, it will,
prior to such filing, give written notice to all Stockholders of its intention
to do so and, upon the written request of a Stockholder or Stockholders given
within 20 days after the Company provides such notice (which request shall state
the intended method of disposition of such Registrable Shares), the Company
shall use its best efforts to cause all Registrable Shares which the Company has
been requested by such Stockholder or Stockholders to register to be registered
under the Securities Act to the extent necessary to permit their sale or other
disposition in accordance with the intended methods of distribution specified in
the request of such Stockholder or Stockholders; provided that the Company shall
have the right to postpone or withdraw any registration effected pursuant to
this Section 3 without obligation to any Stockholder.
(b) In connection with any registration under this Section 3
involving an underwriting, the Company shall not be required to include any
Registrable Shares in such registration unless the holders thereof accept the
terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the
underwriters selected by it (provided that such terms must be consistent with
this Agreement). If in the opinion of the managing underwriter it is appropriate
because of marketing factors to limit the number of Registrable Shares to be
included in the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the
registration only that number of Registrable Shares, if any, which the managing
underwriter believes should be included therein; provided that (i) in no event
shall the number of Registrable Shares included in the offering be reduced below
10% of the total number of Registerable Shares of Common Stock requested to be
included in the offering, and (ii) no persons or entities other than the
Company, the Stockholders and persons or entities holding registration rights
granted in accordance with Section 10 hereof shall be permitted to include
securities in the offering. If the number of Registrable Shares to be included
in the offering in accordance with the foregoing is less than the total number
of shares which the holders of Registrable Shares have requested to
-4-
be included, then the holders of Registrable Shares who have requested
registration and other holders of securities entitled to include them in such
registration shall participate in the registration pro rata based upon their
total ownership of shares of Common Stock (giving effect to the conversion into
Common Stock of all securities convertible thereinto). If any holder would thus
be entitled to include more securities than such holder requested to be
registered, the excess shall be allocated among other requesting holders pro
rata in the manner described in the preceding sentence.
4. Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required by
-----------------------
the provisions of this Agreement to use its best efforts to effect the
registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act, the
Company shall:
(a) file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to
such Registrable Shares and use its best efforts to cause that Registration
Statement to become and remain effective;
(b) as expeditiously as possible prepare and file with the Commission
any amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus
included in the Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the
Registration Statement effective, in the case of a firm commitment underwritten
public offering, until each underwriter has completed the distribution of all
securities purchased by it and, in the case of any other offering, until the
earlier of the sale of all Registrable Shares covered thereby or 120 days after
the effective date thereof;
(c) as expeditiously as possible furnish to each selling Stockholder
such reasonable numbers of copies of the prospectus, including a preliminary
prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such
other documents as the selling Stockholder may reasonably request in order to
facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Shares owned
by the selling Stockholder; and
(d) as expeditiously as possible use its best efforts to register or
qualify the Registrable Shares covered by the Registration Statement under the
securities or Blue Sky laws of such states as the selling Stockholders shall
reasonably request, and do any and all other acts and things that may be
necessary or desirable to enable the selling Stockholders to consummate the
public sale or other disposition in such states of the Registrable Shares owned
by the selling Stockholder; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
-------- -------
required in connection with this paragraph (d) to qualify as a foreign
corporation or execute a general consent to service of process in any
jurisdiction.
-5-
If the Company has delivered preliminary or final prospectuses to the
selling Stockholders and after having done so the prospectus is amended to
comply with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Company shall promptly
notify the selling Stockholders and, if requested, the selling Stockholders
shall immediately cease making offers of Registrable Shares and return all
prospectuses to the Company. The Company shall promptly provide the selling
Stockholders with revised prospectuses and, following receipt of the revised
prospectuses, the selling Stockholders shall be free to resume making offers of
the Registrable Shares.
5. Allocation of Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration
----------------------
Expenses of all registrations under this Agreement; provided, however, that if a
-------- -------
registration under Section 2 is withdrawn at the request of the Stockholders
requesting such registration (other than as a result of information concerning
the business or financial condition of the Company which is made known to the
Stockholders after the date on which such registration was requested) and if the
requesting Stockholders elect not to have such registration counted as a
registration requested under Section 2, the requesting Stockholders shall pay
the Registration Expenses of such registration pro rata in accordance with the
number of their Registrable Shares included in such registration. For purposes
of this Section 5, the term "Registration Expenses" shall mean all expenses
incurred by the Company in complying with this Agreement, including, without
limitation, all registration and filing fees, exchange listing fees, printing
expenses, fees and expenses of counsel for the Company and the fees and expenses
of one counsel selected by the selling Stockholders to represent the selling
Stockholders, state Blue Sky fees and expenses, and the expense of any special
audits incident to or required by any such registration, but excluding
underwriting discounts, selling commissions and the fees and expenses of selling
Stockholders' own counsel (other than the counsel selected to represent all
selling Stockholders).
6. Indemnification and Contribution.
--------------------------------
(a) In the event of any registration of any of the Registrable Shares
under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will indemnify
and hold harmless the seller of such Registrable Shares, each underwriter of
such Registrable Shares, and each other person, if any, who controls such seller
or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act
against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which
such seller, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act, state securities or Blue Sky laws or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in any
-6-
Registration Statement under which such Registrable Shares were registered under
the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained in
the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration
Statement, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading; and the Company will reimburse such seller,
underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or any other expenses
reasonably incurred by such seller, underwriter or controlling person in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in
-------- -------
any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability
arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or omission made in such
Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus or final prospectus, or any such
amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with information
furnished to the Company, in writing, by or on behalf of such seller,
underwriter or controlling person specifically for use in the preparation
thereof.
(b) In the event of any registration of any of the Registrable Shares
under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, each seller of Registrable
Shares, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company,
each of its directors and officers and each underwriter (if any) and each
person, if any, who controls the Company or any such underwriter within the
meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims,
damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company, such directors
and officers, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the
Securities Act, Exchange Act, state securities or Blue Sky laws or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which
such Registrable Shares were registered under the Securities Act, any
preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained in the Registration
Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or
arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, if the statement or omission was made in reliance upon
and in conformity with information relating to such seller furnished in writing
to the Company by or on behalf of such seller specifically for use in connection
with the preparation of such Registration Statement, prospectus, amendment or
supplement; provided, however, that the obligations of such Stockholders
-------- -------
hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the proceeds to each
Stockholder of Registrable Shares sold in connection with such registration.
-7-
(c) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 6 (the
"Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required to provide
indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such Indemnified Party
has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall
permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any
litigation resulting therefrom; provided, that counsel for the Indemnifying
--------
Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be
approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld); and, provided, further, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to
-------- -------
give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its
obligations under this Section 6. The Indemnified Party may participate in such
defense at such party's expense; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party
-------- -------
shall pay such expense if representation of such Indemnified Party by the
counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual
or potential differing interests between the Indemnified Party and any other
party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. No Indemnifying Party, in
the defense of any such claim or litigation shall, except with the consent of
each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any
settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by
the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all
liability in respect of such claim or litigation, and no Indemnified Party shall
consent to entry of any judgment or settle such claim or litigation without the
prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party.
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint
liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) any holder of
Registrable Shares exercising rights under this Agreement, or any controlling
person of any such holder, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this
Section 6 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or
decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal
or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be
enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 6 provides for
indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may
be required on the part of any such selling Stockholder or any such controlling
person in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section
6; then, in each such case, the Company and such Stockholder will contribute to
the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be
subject (after contribution from others) in such proportions so that such holder
is responsible for the portion represented by the percentage that the public
offering price of its Registrable Shares offered by the Registration Statement
bears to the public offering price of all securities offered by such
Registration Statement, and the Company is responsible for the remaining
portion; provided, however, that, in any such case,
-------- -------
-8-
(A) no such holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the
proceeds to it of all Registrable Shares sold by it pursuant to such
Registration Statement, and (B) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation, within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act,
shall be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who is not guilty of
such fraudulent misrepresentation.
7. Indemnification with Respect to Underwritten Offering. In the event
-----------------------------------------------------
that Registrable Shares are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement in an
underwritten offering pursuant to Section 2, the Company agrees to enter into an
underwriting agreement containing customary representations and warranties with
respect to the business and operations of an issuer of the securities being
registered and customary covenants and agreements to be performed by such
issuer, including without limitation customary provisions with respect to
indemnification by the Company of the underwriters of such offering.
8. Information by Holder. Each Stockholder including Registrable Shares
---------------------
in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such
Stockholder and the distribution proposed by such Stockholder as the Company may
reasonably request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any
registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement.
9. "Stand-Off" Agreement. Each Stockholder, if requested by the Company
---------------------
and the managing underwriter of an offering by the Company of Common Stock or
other securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration Statement, shall
agree not to sell publicly or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Registrable
Shares or other securities of the Company held by such Stockholder for a
specified period of time (not to exceed 90 days) following the effective date of
such Registration Statement.
10. Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. The Company shall not,
---------------------------------------------
without the prior written consent of Stockholders holding at least a majority of
the Registrable Shares, enter into any agreement (other than this Agreement)
with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company which
would allow such holder or prospective holder (a) to include securities of the
Company in any Registration Statement, unless under the terms of such agreement,
such holder or prospective holder may include such securities in any such
registration only on terms substantially similar to the terms on which holders
of Registrable Shares may include shares in such registration, or (b) except in
the case of Bruncor Inc. as the holder of warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of
Common Stock and certain lenders to the Company as holders of warrants to
purchase a total of 449,439 shares of Common Stock to make a demand registration
which could
-9-
result in such registration statement being declared effective prior to December
31, 2004.
11. Rule 144 Requirements. After the earliest of (i) the closing of the
---------------------
sale of securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration Statement, (ii) the
registration by the Company of a class of securities under Section 12 of the
Exchange Act, or (iii) the issuance by the Company of an offering circular
pursuant to Regulation A under the Securities Act, the Company agrees to:
(a) comply with the requirements of Rule 144(c) under the Securities
Act with respect to current public information about the Company;
(b) use its best efforts to 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 (at any time after it has become subject to
such reporting requirements); and
(c) furnish to any holder of Registrable Shares upon request (i) a
written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the requirements of
said Rule 144(c), and the reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting
requirements), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the
Company, and (iii) such other reports and documents of the Company as such
holder may reasonably request to avail itself of any similar rule or regulation
of the Commission allowing it to sell any such securities without registration.
12. Mergers, Etc. The Company shall not, directly or indirectly, enter
------------
into any merger, consolidation or reorganization in which the Company shall not
be the surviving corporation unless the proposed surviving corporation shall,
prior to such merger, consolidation or reorganization, agree in writing to
assume the obligations of the Company under this Agreement, and for that purpose
references hereunder to "Registrable Shares" shall be deemed to be references to
the securities which the Stockholders would be entitled to receive in exchange
for Registrable Shares under any such merger, consolidation or reorganization;
provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 12 shall not apply in the
- -------- -------
event of any merger, consolidation or reorganization in which the Company is not
the surviving corporation if all Stockholders are entitled to receive in
exchange for their Registrable Shares consideration consisting solely of (i)
cash, (ii) securities of the acquiring corporation which may be immediately sold
to the public without registration under the Securities Act, or (iii) securities
of the acquiring corporation which the acquiring corporation has agreed to
register within 90 days of completion of the transaction for resale to the
public pursuant to the Securities Act.
-10-
13. Termination. All of the Company's obligations to register Registrable
-----------
Shares under this Agreement shall terminate on the tenth anniversary of this
Agreement.
14. Transfers of Rights. This Agreement, and the rights and obligations
-------------------
of each Purchaser hereunder, may be assigned by such Purchaser to any person or
entity to which Shares are transferred by such Purchaser, and such a permitted

Company.
