basis pursuant to Rule 415. The Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 (or
another appropriate form approved by the Holders of a majority of the

resale by the Holders in the manner or manners designated by them (including,

such Registration Statement have been sold or may be sold pursuant to Rule 144
without volume restrictions as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant
to a written opinion letter, addressed to the Holders, to such effect (the
"Effectiveness Period"); provided, however, that the Company shall not be deemed
to have used its best efforts to keep the Registration Statement effective
during the Effectiveness Period if it voluntarily takes any action that would

action is required under applicable law or the Company has filed a

not declared it effective.
2. If the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities
so elect, an offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration
Statement may be effected in the form of an Underwritten Offering. In such

Securities proposed to be sold in such Underwritten Offering exceeds the amount
of Registrable Securities which can be sold in such Underwritten Offering, there

Securities which in the opinion of such Managing Underwriters can be sold, and
such amount shall be allocated pro rata among the Holders proposing to sell
Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Offering.
3. If any of the Registrable Securities are to be sold in an
Underwritten Offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager
or managers that will administer the offering will be selected by the Holders of
a majority of the Registrable Securities included in such offering. No Holder
may participate in any Underwritten Offering hereunder unless such Person (i)
agrees to sell its Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any
underwriting agreements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve
such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required
under the terms of such arrangements.

any such Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto to which the
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities, their Special Counsel, or

requested by any such Person) confirm such notice in writing no later than 3
Business Days following the day (i)(A) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus
supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement is proposed
to be filed; (B) when the Commission notifies the Company whether there will be
a "review" of such Registration Statement and whenever the Commission comments
on such Registration Statement; and (C) with respect to the Registration
Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective;
(ii) of any request by the Commission or any other Federal or state governmental
authority for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or
Prospectus or for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the
Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration

Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that

documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus,
as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state any 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.
4. Use its best efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if

a majority of the Registrable Securities to be sold in connection with an
Underwritten Offering, (i) promptly incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or
post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement such information as such

therein and (ii) make all required filings of such Prospectus supplement or such
post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after the Company has received
notification of the matters to be incorporated in such Prospectus supplement or
post-effective amendment; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required to take any action pursuant to this Section 3(e) that would, in the
opinion of counsel for the Company, violate applicable law.

thereto by each of the selling Holders and any Underwriters in connection with
the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus
and any amendment or supplement thereto.
8. Prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use
its best efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders,
any Underwriters and their respective counsel in connection with the
registration or qualification (or exemption from such registration or
qualification) of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the
securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as
any Holder or Underwriter requests in writing, to keep each such registration or
qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period
and to do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the
disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by a
Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of
process in any jurisdiction.

facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing

Holders may request at least two Business Days prior to any sale of Registrable
Securities.

be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document so
that, as thereafter delivered, neither the Registration Statement nor such

facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities, and whether or not an
underwriting agreement is entered into, (i) make such representations and
warranties to such Holders and such Underwriters as are customarily made by
issuers to underwriters in underwritten public offerings, and confirm the same
if and when requested; (ii) obtain and deliver copies thereof to each Holder and

otherwise as the holder of any securities of the Company, then such Holder shall
have the right to require (i) the inclusion therein of language, in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to such Holder, to the effect that the

recommendation by such Holder of the investment quality of the Company's
securities covered thereby and that such ownership does not imply that such
Holder will assist in meeting any future financial requirements of the Company,
or (ii) if such reference to such Holder by name or otherwise is not required by

or Affiliates, if any, will comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of
the Securities Act as applicable to them in connection with sales of Registrable
Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.
Each Holder agrees by its acquisition of such Registrable
Securities that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of
any event of the kind described in Section 3(c)(ii), 3(c)(iii), 3(c)(iv),
3(c)(v) or 3(c)(vi), such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such
Registrable Securities until such Holder's receipt of the copies of the
supplemented Prospectus and/or amended Registration Statement contemplated by
Section 3(j),
-10-
11
or until it is advised in writing (the "Advice") by the Company that the use of
the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and, in either case, has received
copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed
to be incorporated by reference in such Prospectus or Registration Statement.
XVII Liquidated Damages. The Company acknowledges and agrees
that the Holders will suffer damages, and that it would not be feasible to
ascertain the extent of such damages with precision, if (a) a Registration
Statement shall not have been filed with the Commission on or prior to the
applicable Filing Date, or (b) the Company fails to file with the Commission a
request for acceleration in accordance with Rule 12d1-2 promulgated under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, within five (5) days of the date
that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the
Commission that an Underlying Securities Registration Statement will not be
"reviewed" or is not subject to further review or comment, or (c) a Registration
Statement is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the
applicable Effectiveness Date, or (d) a Registration Statement is filed with and
declared effective by the Commission but thereafter ceases to be effective at
any time prior to the expiration of the Effectiveness Period without being
succeeded within 10 Business Days by a subsequent Registration Statement filed
with and declared effective by the Commission, or (e) trading in the Common
Stock shall be suspended for any reason for more than three Trading Days (as
such term is defined under the Certificate of Vote of Directors Establishing A
Series Of A Class Of Stock filed with the State of Massachusetts in respect of
the Preferred Stock (the "Certificate of Vote")) or (f) if the conversion rights
of the holders of the Preferred Stock as set forth in the Certificate of Vote
are suspended for any reason (any such failure being referred to as an "Event,"
and for purposes of clauses (a), (c) and (f) the date on which such Event
occurs, or, for purposes of clause (b) the date on which such five (5) day
period is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (d) the date which such 10
Business Day-period is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (e) the date on which
such three Trading Day period is exceeded, being referred to as "Event Date"),
then the Company shall pay the Purchaser in cash, as liquidated damages and not
as a penalty, 1.5% of the Purchase Price per month, payment thereof due on the
day after such Event Date and thereafter on each monthly anniversary date of
such Event Date, until such time as a subsequent Registration Statement is
declared effective by the Commission, or until any Event contemplated by clause
(e) or (f), as the case may be, is cured.
The Company shall notify each Holder within five days of each
Event and Event Date. The Company shall pay the liquidated damages due with
respect to the Registrable Securities to each Holder of record as at the Event
Date on a monthly basis, beginning with the date upon which such liquidated
damages first accrue.

12

jurisdictions as the Managing Underwriters, if any, or Holders of a majority of
Registrable Securities may designate)), (ii) printing expenses (including,
without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities
and of printing prospectuses if the printing of prospectuses is requested by the
Managing Underwriters, if any, or by the holders of a majority of the
Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement), (iii) messenger,
telephone and delivery expenses, (iv) reasonable fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company and Special Counsel for the Holders, (v) fees and
disbursements of all independent certified public accountants referred to in
Section 3(l)(iii) (including, without limitation, the expenses of any special

(vi) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Company so desires such
insurance, and (vii) fees and expenses of all other Persons retained by the
Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by

internal expenses incurred in connection with the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, all
salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or
accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit, the fees and expenses
incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities on any
securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then
listed.
2. In connection with the Registration Statement, the Company
shall reimburse the Holders for the fees and disbursements of one firm of
attorneys chosen by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities.
XIX Indemnification
1. Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall,
notwithstanding termination of this Agreement and without limitation as to time,
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the officers, directors, agents
(including any Underwriters retained by such Holder in connection with the offer
and sale of Registrable Securities), brokers (including brokers who offer and
sell Registrable Securities as principal as a result of a pledge or any failure
to perform under a margin call of Common Stock), investment advisors and
employees of each of them, each Person who controls any such Holder (within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act)
and the officers, directors, agents and employees of each such controlling
Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any
and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without
limitation, costs of preparation and reasonable attorneys' fees) and expenses
(collectively, "Losses"), as incurred, arising out of or relating to any untrue
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration
Statement, any Prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or
supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or
relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any
Prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except to the extent,
but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions are based
solely upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the
Company by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use therein, which
information was reasonably relied on by the Company for use therein or to the
extent that such information relates to such Holder or such Holder's proposed
method of distribution of Registrable
-12-
13
Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Holder
expressly for use in the Registration Statement, such Prospectus or such form of
Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto. The Company shall notify
the Holders promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding
of which the Company is aware in connection with the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement.
2. Indemnification by Holders. In connection with the
Registration Statement, each Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such
information as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with the
Registration Statement or any Prospectus and agrees, severally and not jointly,
to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, their directors, officers, agents
and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the
directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling Persons, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses (as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment not subject
to appeal or review) arising solely out of or based solely upon any untrue
statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any
Prospectus, or any form of prospectus, or arising solely out of or based solely
upon any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading to the extent, but only to the
extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information
so furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company specifically for inclusion
in the Registration Statement or such Prospectus and that such information was
reasonably relied upon by the Company for use in the Registration Statement,
such Prospectus or such form of prospectus or to the extent that such
information relates to such Holder or such Holder's proposed method of
distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved
in writing by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement, such
Prospectus or such form of Prospectus. In no event shall the liability of any
selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net
proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities
giving rise to such indemnification obligation.
3. Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding
shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder
(an "Indemnified Party"), such Indemnified Party promptly shall notify the
Person from whom indemnity is sought (the "Indemnifying Party") in writing, and
the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the
employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the
payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof;
provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall
not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to
this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not
subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have proximately
and materially adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.
An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate
counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but
the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such
Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed to
pay such fees and expenses; or (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed
promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel
reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3)
the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties)
include both such
-13-
14
Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall
have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if
the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying
Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party
in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the
Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume
the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying
Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any
such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written
consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending
Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such
settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all
liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.
All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including
reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with
investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not
inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as
incurred, within 10 Business Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying
Party (regardless of whether it is ultimately determined that an Indemnified
Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder; provided, that the
Indemnifying Party may require such Indemnified Party to undertake to reimburse
all such fees and expenses to the extent it is finally judicially determined
that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder).
4. Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section
6(a) or 6(b) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold
such Indemnified Party harmless for any Losses in respect of which this Section
would apply by its terms (other than by reason of exceptions provided in this
Section), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified
Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party
as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection
with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well
as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such
Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a
material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by,
such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result
of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth
in Section 6(c), any attorneys' or other fees or expenses incurred by such party
in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been
indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in
this Section was available to such party.
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6(d) were determined by pro
rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into
account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6(d), the Purchaser
shall not be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of
the amount by which the proceeds actually received by the Purchaser from the
sale of the
-14-
15
Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any
damages that the Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person
guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of
the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was
not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this
Section are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have
to the Indemnified Parties.
XX Rule 144
The Company shall file the reports required to be filed by it
under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any
time the Company is not required to file such reports, they will, upon the
request of any Holder, make publicly available other information so long as
necessary to permit sales of its securities pursuant to Rule 144. The Company
further covenants that it will take such further action as any Holder may
reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such
Holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities
Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144. Upon the
request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written
certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with
such requirements.
XXI Miscellaneous
1. Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company or by a
Holder, of any of their obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the
Company, as the case may be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all
rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including recovery of damages,
will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The
Company and each Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate
compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the
provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any
action for specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the
defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
2. No Inconsistent Agreements. Except as set forth in Schedule
8 hereto, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has, as of the date
hereof, nor shall the Company or any of its subsidiaries, on or after the date
of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities that
is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or
otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. Neither the Company nor any of
its subsidiaries has previously entered into any agreement granting any
registration rights with respect to any of its securities to any Person. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, without the written consent of the
Holders of a majority of the then outstanding Registrable Securities, the
Company shall not grant to any Person the right to request the Company to
register any securities of the Company under the Securities Act unless the
rights so granted are subject in all respects to the prior rights in full of the
Holders set forth herein, and are not otherwise in conflict or inconsistent with
the provisions of this Agreement.
3. No Piggyback on Registrations. Except as set forth in
Schedule 8 hereto, neither of the Company nor any of its security holders (other
than the Holders in such
-15-
16
capacity pursuant hereto) may include securities of the Company in the
Registration Statement other than the Common Stock to be issued under the
Purchase Agreement, and the Company shall not enter into any agreement providing
any such right to any of its securityholders.
4. Piggy-Back Registrations. If at any time the Company shall
determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement
relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the
Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form
S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents
relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any
acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in
connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, the Company shall
send to each holder of Registrable Securities written notice of such
determination and, if within twenty (20) days after receipt of such notice, any
such holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such
registration statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities such holder
requests to be registered, except that if, in connection with any Underwritten
Offering for the account of the Company the managing underwriter(s) thereof
shall impose a limitation on the number of shares of Common Stock which may be
included in the registration statement because, in such underwriter(s)'
judgment, such limitation is necessary to effect an orderly public distribution
of securities covered thereby, then the Company shall be obligated to include in
such registration statement only such limited portion of the Registrable
Securities for to which such holder has requested inclusion hereunder. Any
exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata among the holders
seeking to include Registrable Securities, in proportion to the number of
Registrable Securities sought to be included by such holders; provided, however,
that the Company shall not exclude any Registrable Securities unless the Company
has first excluded all outstanding securities the holders of which are not
entitled by right to inclusion of securities in such registration statement; and
provided, further, however, that, after giving effect to the immediately
preceding proviso, any exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro
rata with holders of other securities having the right to include such
securities in such registration statement. No right to registration of
Registrable Securities under this Section shall be construed to limit any
registration otherwise required hereunder. This Section 8(d) shall apply only at
such times when all of the Registrable Securities issued and outstanding cannot
be sold pursuant to an effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 and for a
period not to exceed two years after the date of this Agreement.
5. Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement,
including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or
supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof
may not be given, unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Company
and the Holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding Registrable
Securities; provided, however, that, for the purposes of this sentence,
Registrable Securities that are owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company,
or an Affiliate of the Company are not deemed outstanding. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect
to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders and that does not
directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders may be given by
Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities to which such
waiver or consent relates; provided, however, that the provisions of this
sentence may not be amended, modified, or supplemented except in accordance with
the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence.

Securities if: (i) the Purchaser agrees in writing with the transferee or
assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the

have been made in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Purchase
Agreement. The rights to assignment shall apply to the Purchaser's (and to
subsequent) successors and assigns.
9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original and, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same
Agreement. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile

party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with
the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature were the original
thereof.
10. Governing Law; Arbitration;. (A) This Agreement shall be
governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of

restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions,
covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and
effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties
hereto shall use their reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative
means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated
by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and
declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the

of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

Securities is required hereunder, Registrable Securities held by the Company or
its Affiliates (other than the Purchaser or transferees or successors or assigns
thereof if such Persons are deemed to be Affiliates solely by reason of their
holdings of such Registrable Securities) shall not be counted in determining
whether such consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required
