ARTICLE 5
COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY AND DAVID MARGOLESE
5.1 Rule 144. The Company hereby covenants and agrees with the
Purchaser that it shall file all reports required to be filed by it under the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act and shall take such further action as the
Purchaser may reasonably request, all to the extent required to enable the
Purchaser to sell the Purchased Shares pursuant to and in accordance with Rule
144 adopted by the Commission under the Securities Act (as such rule may be
amended from time to time) ("Rule 144") or any similar rule or regulation
hereafter adopted by the Commission. Such action shall include, but not be
limited to, making available adequate current public information meeting the
requirements of paragraph (c) of Rule 144.
5.2 Tag-Along Rights.
(a) In the event any Significant Stockholder intends to
Transfer shares of Common Stock having a fair market value (together with all
shares of Common Stock Transferred by such Person in the preceding six months)
exceeding $100,000, such Significant Stockholder (the "Selling Stockholder")
shall notify the Purchaser, in writing, of such proposed Transfer and its terms
and conditions. Within ten (10) Business Days of the date of such notice, the
Purchaser shall irrevocably notify the Selling Stockholder if it elects to
participate in such Transfer (a "Participation Notice"). If the Purchaser shall
fail to notify the Selling Stockholder within such ten (10) Business Day period,
it shall be deemed to have waived its rights hereunder. If the Purchaser shall
have delivered a Participation Notice, it shall have the right to sell, at the
same price and on the same terms and conditions as the Selling Stockholder, an
amount of shares of Common Stock equal to the shares of Common Stock the third
party actually proposes to purchase multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock owned by the Purchaser and
the denominator of which shall be the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock
owned by the Selling Stockholder and the Purchaser. Nothing contained herein
shall obligate the Selling Stockholder to consummate the proposed Transfer or
limit the Selling Stockholder's right to amend or modify the terms of the
proposed Transfer in any respect; provided that the Purchaser is offered the
opportunity to participate in the proposed Transfer on such amended or modified
term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5.2 shall not apply to any
Transfer if at the date thereof Purchaser and its Subsidiaries collectively
shall beneficially own fewer than 190,500 shares of Common Stock.
(b) The Company shall not issue or sell any shares of Common
Stock, Convertible Preferred Stock or any other class of capital stock which is
convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock to any Person if such issuance
or sale would result in such Person becoming a Significant Stockholder unless
and until such Person shall have delivered to the Company and the Purchaser a
written
<PAGE>
12
agreement stating that such Person agrees to be bound by the provisions of
Section 5.2 of this Agreement.
5.3 Preemptive Right.
(i) If at any time after the date hereof and prior to the first
anniversary of the Operational Date, the Company proposes to issue Common Stock
of any kind (including any warrants, options or securities or units comprising
securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or rights to
acquire the same) of the Company, other than (i) pursuant to an underwritten
public offering, (ii) pursuant to an employee or non-management director stock
option plan, stock bonus plan, stock purchase plan or other management equity
program or plan or (iii) securities issuable upon exercise of previously issued
warrants, options or other rights to acquire Common Stock or upon conversion of
previously issued securities convertible into Common Stock, then the Company
shall:
(1) give written notice setting forth in reasonable detail (a) the
terms and provisions of the securities proposed to be issued (the "Proposed
Securities"); (b) the price and other terms of the proposed sale of such
securities; (c) the amount of such securities proposed to be issued; and (d)
such other information as the Purchaser may reasonably request in order to
evaluate the proposed issuance; and
(2) offer to issue to the Purchaser a portion of the Proposed
Securities equal to a percentage determined by dividing (x) the number of shares
of Common Stock held by the Purchaser, by (y) the total number of shares of
Common Stock then outstanding.
The Purchaser must exercise its purchase rights hereunder within ten (10)
Business Days after receipt of such notice from the Company.
(ii) Upon the expiration of the offering period described above, or
if the Purchaser shall default in paying for or purchasing the Proposed
Securities on the terms offered by the Company, the Company will be free to sell
such Proposed Securities that the Purchaser has not elected to purchaser during
the ninety (90) days following such expiration on terms and conditions no more
favorable to the purchasers thereof than those offered to the Purchaser. Any
Proposed Securities offered or sold by the Company after such 90 day period must
be reoffered to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 5.3.
(iii) The election by the Purchaser not to exercise its preemptive
rights under this Section 5.3 in any one instance shall not affect its right
(other than in respect of a reduction in its percentage holders) as to any
subsequent proposed issuance. Any sale of such securities by the Company without
first giving the Purchaser the rights described in this Section 5.3 shall be
void and of no force and effect.

ARTICLE 6
COVENANTS OF THE PURCHASER
The Company and its underwriters, by written notice from the Company
and its lead underwriter to the Purchaser (a "Lock-up Request"), given as
provided herein on or after the time of the initial filing with the Commission
of any registration statement (other than a registration statement relating to
an offering described in Section 7.1 with respect to any offering of Common
Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock (the "Offering"), may request
that the Purchaser agree not to offer, sell or transfer any of the Purchased
Shares, or engage in any hedging transactions with respect to the Purchased
Shares, during the 180-day period (the "Lock-up Period") beginning on a date
specified in the Lock-up Request, which date may be as early as five (5)
business days prior to the expected effective date (but no later than the
effective date) with respect to the registration statement for the Offering, and
the Purchaser agrees to consent to and be bound by the restrictions specified in
any such Lock-up Request; provided, however, that (a) such a lock-up agreement
with respect to any Offering shall not prevent Purchaser from selling Purchased
Shares which it is entitled to sell in such Offering pursuant to Section 7.2 if
it shall have made the request specified therein, (b) the Purchaser's Lock-Up
Period shall not be greater than the shortest similar period to which any
Comparable Stockholder is requested to agree by the lead underwriter of such
Offering, and (c) the Purchaser shall be obligated to consent to and be bound by
a total of by no more than two such lock-up agreements with respect to Offerings
actually declared effective by the Commission. The Company shall specify the
expected effective date of any Offering by notice to the Purchaser given not
later than two (2) Business Days prior to the beginning of the Lock-up Period.
The Purchaser shall cause each Person to whom it Transfers, in one or a series
of related transactions, 500,000 or more shares of Common Stock to execute and
deliver to the Company a letter agreement pursuant to which such transferee
agrees (and to cause each other Person to whom it Transfers any shares of Common
Stock if, after giving effect to such Transfer, such Person, together with its
Affiliates, would beneficially own 500,000 or more shares of Common Stock to
execute and deliver to the Company a similar letter agreement) to comply with
the requirements of this Article 6 (including this sentence) to the same extent
and subject to the same terms and conditions as the Purchaser.

ARTICLE 7
REGISTRATION RIGHTS
7.1 Requested Registration. If the Company shall receive from the
Purchaser, at any time following the Operational Date, a written request (which
shall specify whether the distribution will be made by means of an underwriting)
that the Company effect any registration with respect to all or a part of the
Purchased Shares that constitute Registrable Securities (a "Demand Notice"),
which Demand Notice shall request registration of not less than 500,000 shares
of Common Stock or all remaining shares of Common Stock then held by the
Purchaser, the Company will, as soon as practicable, use its diligent best
efforts to effect such registration as may be so requested and as would permit
or facilitate the sale and distribution of the Purchased Shares as are specified
in such request. After the Company has effected one (1) such registration
pursuant to this Section 7.1 and such registration has been declared effective
and the distribution contemplated thereunder completed, the Company shall have
no further obligation under this Section 7.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
the Company shall furnish to the Purchaser a certificate signed by the President
or the Chief Executive Officer 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 statement
to be filed and it is therefore desirable and in the best interests of the
Company to defer the filing of such registration statement, then the Company
shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than 90 days
after receipt of the request of the Purchaser; provided however, that the
Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve month period.
7.2 Company Registration. (a) If the Company shall determine to
register any of its equity securities for the account of a security holder or
holders, other than a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, or
a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction, or a
registration on any registration form which does not permit secondary sales or
does not include substan-tially the same information as would be required to be
included in a registration statement covering the sale of Purchased Shares, the
Company will promptly give to the Purchaser a written notice thereof and include
in such registration, and in any underwriting involved therein, all the
Purchased Shares that constitute Registrable Securities specified in a written
request made by the Purchaser within ten Business Days after receipt of the
written notice from the Company described above. The Purchaser shall be entitled
to have its shares included in an unlimited number of registrations pursuant to
Section 7.2.
(b) If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a
registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so
advise the Purchaser as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section
7.2(a). In such event, the right of the Purchaser to registration pursuant to
this Section 7.2(a) shall be conditioned upon the Purchaser's participation in
such underwriting and the inclusion
<PAGE>
15
of the Purchaser's shares of Common Stock in the underwriting to the extent
provided herein. If the Purchaser shall have elected to exercise its rights
under this Section 7.2(a), it shall enter into an underwriting agreement in
customary form with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters
selected for underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Section 7.2, if the representative determines and so advises the Company in
writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to
be underwritten, the Company shall so advise the Purchaser. In such an event,
the number of Purchased Shares that may be included in the registration and
underwriting by the Purchaser shall be reduced, on a pro rata basis (based on
the number of shares held by the Purchaser and each other Person (other than the
Company) registering shares under such registration), by such minimum number of
shares as is necessary to comply with such limitation. If the Purchaser
disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, it may elect to withdraw
therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter. Any Purchased
Shares excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such
registration.
7.3 Transferability. The registration rights granted pursuant to
this Article 7 shall be assignable, in whole or in part, to any transferee of
the Purchased Shares; provided, however, that the rights granted under Section
7.1 shall be assignable only to a Transferee who, after giving effect to such
Transfer, beneficially owns at least 500,000 shares of Common Stock.
7.4 Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in
connection with any registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this
Article 7 shall be borne by the Company, and all Selling Expenses shall be borne
by the Purchaser.
7.5 Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration
effected by the Company pursuant to Article 7, the Company will:
(a) furnish to the Purchaser prior to the filing of the requisite
Registration Statement copies of drafts of such Registration Statement as is
proposed to be filed, and thereafter such number of copies of such registration
statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all
exhibits thereto), the Prospectus included in such registration statement
(including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents in such
quantities as the Purchaser may reasonably request from time to time in order to
facilitate its distribution;
(b) notify the Purchaser promptly of any request by the Commission
for the amending or supplementing of such Registration Statement or Prospectus
or for additional information;
(c) advise the Purchaser promptly after the Company shall receive
notice or obtain knowledge of the issuance of any stop order by the Commission
<PAGE>
16
suspending the effectiveness of any such Registration Statement or amendment
thereto or of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose,
and promptly use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or
to obtain its withdrawal promptly if such stop order should be issued;
(d) use all reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Purchased
Shares under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the
Purchaser (or the managing underwriter, in the case of underwritten offerings)
reasonably requests; provided that the Company shall not be required to qualify
to do business or become subject to service of process or taxation in any
jurisdiction in which it is not already so qualified or subject;
(e) use all reasonable efforts to cause the Purchased Shares
included in the registration statement to be listed on a securities exchange or
authorized for quotation on a national quotation system on which any of the
Common Stock is then listed;
(f) notify the Purchaser, at any time when a prospectus relating to
the proposed sale is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the
happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such
registration statement or amendment contains an untrue statement of a material
fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading, and the Company will prepare a supplement or amendment to
such Prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the
Purchased Shares, such Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein
to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading; and
(g) enter into customary agreements (including without limitation,
an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions as are
reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the
Purchased Shares included in the registration statement.
7.6 Indemnification.
(a) The Company will indemnify the Purchaser, each of its officers
and directors, and each person controlling the Purchaser within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, with
respect to each registration which has been effected pursuant to this Article 7,
and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls any underwriter
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and the rules and
regulations thereunder, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or
alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Prospectus or
other document (including any related registration statement,
<PAGE>
17
notification or the like) incident to any such registration, qualification or
compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, or any violation by the Company of the Securities Act or
any rule or regulation thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to
action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such
registration, qualification or compliance, and will reimburse the Purchaser,
each of its officers and directors, and each person controlling the Purchaser,
each such underwriter and each person who controls any such underwriter, for any
legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
investigating and defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action,
provided that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that
any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on
any untrue statement or omission based upon written information furnished to the
Company by the Purchaser with respect to the Purchaser and stated to be
specifically for use therein.
(b) The Purchaser will, if Purchased Shares held by it are included
in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is
being effected, indemnify the Company, each of its directors and officers and
each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities covered by such a
registration statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and the rules and
regulations thereunder, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or
alleged untrue statement) of a material fact with respect to the Purchaser
contained in any such registration statement, prospectus or other document made
by the Purchaser, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a
material fact with respect to the Purchaser required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements by the Purchaser therein not misleading, and
will reimburse the Company and such other directors, officers, partners,
persons, underwriters or control persons for any legal or any other expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such
claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only
to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or
omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement,
prospectus or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by the Purchaser with respect to the
Purchaser and stated to be specifically for use therein; provided, however, that
the obligations of the Purchaser hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal
to the proceeds to the Purchaser of securities sold as contemplated herein.
(c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.6 is held
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party
with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to
herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified
party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the
<PAGE>
18
other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such
loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of
the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission.
(d) Unless Purchaser is at the time an Affiliate of the Company, the
Purchaser shall not be required, in connection with any underwriting
arrangements entered into in connection with any registration, to provide any
information, representations or warranties or covenants with respect to the
Company, its business or operations, and the Purchaser shall not be required to
provide any indemnification with respect to any registration statement except as
specifically provided in 7.6(b) hereof. Nothing in this Section 7.6(d) shall
create, or be deemed to create, any obligation on the part of Purchaser to
provide at any time any information, representations or warranties or covenants
with respect to the Company, its business or operations, or any indemnification
with respect to any registration statement other than as specifically provided
in Section 7.6(b).
