Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

     On November 14, 1997, Spyglass, Inc. (the "Registrant") acquired (the
"Acquisition") all of the issued capital stock of AllPen Software, a California
corporation ("AllPen"), by means of a merger of Spyglass Acquisition Corp., a
California corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant (the
"Transitory Subsidiary"), with and into AllPen.  The Acquisition took place
pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 14, 1997 (the
"Merger Agreement"), among the Registrant, the Transitory Subsidiary and
AllPen.  Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the stockholders of AllPen
received an aggregate of 639,246 shares of the Registrant's Common Stock, $.01
par value per share, in exchange for their AllPen common stock.  Also pursuant
to the Merger Agreement, AllPen optionholders received options for shares of
the Registrant's Common Stock in exchange for their outstanding options for
common stock of AllPen. The consideration for the common stock and options of
AllPen was determined by arm's length negotiation between the parties as to the
fair market value of AllPen as a going concern.  Under the terms of the Merger
Agreement, 10% of the shares of the Registrant's Common Stock issuable to the
stockholders of AllPen in exchange for their AllPen common stock were deposited
in escrow to secure certain indemnification obligations of the AllPen
stockholders.  AllPen is located in Los Gatos, California, and is in the
business of systems integration and software development focused on Internet
technology for non-PC devices.

     This Agreement is entered into as of November 14, 1997 among Spyglass,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Buyer"), Spyglass Acquisition Corp., a
California corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Buyer (the
"Transitory Subsidiary"), and Allpen Software, a California corporation (the

the Buyer in exchange for their common stock of the Company.

     The Parties intend that the merger contemplated by this Agreement shall be
treated as a tax free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

     Now, therefore, in consideration of the representations, warranties and
covenants herein contained, the Parties agree as follows.

(with such merger referred to herein as the "Merger") at the Effective Time (as
defined below).  From and after the Effective Time, the separate corporate
existence of the Transitory Subsidiary shall cease and the Company shall
continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the "Surviving
Corporation").  The "Effective Time" shall be the time at which the Company and
the Transitory Subsidiary file the Merger Agreement in the form attached hereto
as Exhibit A, together with the required officers' certificates of the
Transitory Subsidiary and the Company (collectively, the "Merger Filings"), in
accordance with Sections 1101, 1102 and 1103 of the California Corporations
Code, with the Secretary of State of the State of California.

     1.2 The Closing.  The closing of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement (the "Closing") shall take place on the date of this Agreement or
such later date as may be mutually agreeable to the Parties (the "Closing
Date").

     1.3 Actions at the Closing.  At the Closing:

     (a) the Company shall deliver to the Buyer copies of (i) all of the
waivers, permits, consents, approvals, authorizations, registrations, filings
and notices referred to in the last sentence of Section 2.4 and (ii) the
consent of each holder of an Option in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B;

     (b) the Company shall deliver to the Buyer an Investment Representation 
Letter in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C executed by each of the 
stockholders of record of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time 
(the "Company Stockholders"), other than holders of Dissenting Shares (as 
defined in Section 1.9);

     (c) the Buyer and each of Ivan W. Yurtin and Wayne B. Yurtin shall execute

     1.5 Conversion of Shares.

     (a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action
on the part of any Party or the holder of any of the following securities:

         (i) Each Company Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Time (excluding Dissenting Shares (as defined in Section 1.9) and any
Company Shares held in the Company's treasury) shall be converted into and
represent the right to receive (subject to the provisions of Section 1.7) such
number of shares of common stock of the Buyer, $.01 par value per share ("Buyer
Common Stock"), as is equal to the Conversion Ratio.  The "Conversion Ratio"
shall be the result obtained by dividing (1) 1,000,000 by (2) the sum of (x)
the number of outstanding Company Shares immediately prior to the Effective
Time and (y) the number of Company Shares issuable upon exercise of all Options
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

         (ii) Each Company Share held in the Company's treasury immediately 
prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and retired without payment of 
any consideration therefor.

         (iii) Each share of common stock of the Transitory Subsidiary issued 
and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into
and thereafter evidence one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

     (b) The Company Stockholders shall be entitled to receive upon surrender
of their certificate(s) that represented Company Shares converted into Merger
Shares pursuant to Section 1.5(a) ("Certificates") 90% of the shares of Buyer
Common Stock into which their Company Shares were converted pursuant to Section
1.5(a) (the "Initial Shares"); and the remaining 10% of the shares of Buyer
Common Stock into which the Company Shares were converted pursuant to Section 
1.5(a) (the "Escrow Shares") shall be deposited in escrow pursuant to Section 
1.7 and shall be held and disposed of in accordance with the terms of the 
Escrow Agreement.  The Initial Shares and the Escrow Shares shall together be 
referred to herein as the "Merger Shares."

     1.6 Fractional Shares.  No certificates or script representing fractional
Initial Shares shall be issued to the Company Stockholders upon the surrender
for exchange of Certificates and no Company Stockholder shall be entitled to
any voting rights, rights to receive any dividends or distributions or other
rights as a stockholder of the Buyer with respect to any fractional Initial
Shares that would otherwise be issued to such Company Stockholder.  In lieu of
any fractional Initial Shares that would otherwise be issued, each Company
Stockholder shall, upon proper surrender of his or her Certificates, receive
such whole number of Initial Shares as is equal to the precise number of
Initial Shares to which it would be entitled, rounded up or down to the nearest
whole number.

     1.7 Escrow.  On the Closing Date, the Buyer shall deliver to the Escrow
Agent a certificate (issued in the name of the Escrow Agent or its nominee)
representing the Escrow Shares, for the purpose of securing the indemnification
obligations of the Company Stockholders set forth in this Agreement.  The
Escrow Shares shall be held by the Escrow Agent under the Escrow Agreement
pursuant to the terms thereof.  The Escrow Shares shall be held as a trust fund
and shall not be subject to any lien, attachment, trustee process or any other
judicial process of any creditor of any party, and shall be held and disbursed
solely for the purposes and in accordance with the terms of the Escrow
Agreement.

     1.8 Options.

     (a) As of the Effective Time, all outstanding options to purchase Company
Shares ("Options"), whether vested or unvested, shall be assumed by the Buyer,
and shall be deemed to constitute an option to acquire, on the same terms and
conditions as were applicable under such Option at the Effective Time, such
number of shares of Buyer Common Stock as is equal to the number of Company
Shares subject to the unexercised portion of such Option multiplied by the
Conversion Ratio (with any fraction resulting from such multiplication to be
rounded up to the nearest whole number).  The exercise price per share of each
such assumed Option shall be equal to the exercise price of such Option
immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by the Conversion Ratio
(rounded down to the nearest cent).  The term, exercisability, vesting schedule
and all of the other terms of the Options shall otherwise remain unchanged.
Any such adjustments for Options which were incentive stock options under
Section 422 of the Code shall be made in accordance with the rules of Section
424(a) of the Code.

     (b) Within two business days after the Effective Time, the Buyer or the
Surviving Corporation shall deliver to the holders of Options appropriate
notices setting forth such holders' rights pursuant to such Options, as amended
by this Section 1.8, and the agreements evidencing such Options shall continue
in effect on the same terms and conditions (subject to the amendments provided
for in this Section 1.8).

     (c) The Buyer shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for
issuance a sufficient number of shares of Buyer Common Stock for delivery upon 
exercise of the Options assumed in accordance with this Section 1.8.  Within 
two business days after the Effective Time, the Buyer shall file a Registration
Statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form) under the Securities Act of 1933 
(as amended, the "Securities Act") with respect to all shares of Buyer Common 
Stock subject to such Options that may be registered on a Form S-8, and 
shall use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such Registration 
Statement for so long as such Options remain outstanding.

     (d) The Company shall obtain, prior to the Closing, the consent from each
holder of an Option to the amendment of such Option in the form attached hereto
as Exhibit B.

     1.9 Dissenting Shares.

     (a) For purposes of this Agreement, "Dissenting Shares" means Company
Shares held as of the Effective Time by a Company Stockholder who has not voted
such Company Shares in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and the Merger
and with respect to which appraisal shall have been duly demanded and perfected
in accordance with Chapter 13 of the California Corporations Code and not
effectively withdrawn or forfeited prior to the Effective Time.  Dissenting
Shares shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive Buyer
Common Stock, unless such Company Stockholder's right to appraisal shall have
ceased in accordance with Section 1309 of the California Corporations Code.  If
such Company Stockholder's right to appraisal of Dissenting Shares shall have
ceased in accordance with Section 1309 of the California Corporations Code,
then, as of the occurrence of such event (i) such holder's Dissenting Shares
shall cease to be Dissenting Shares and shall be converted into and represent
the right to receive the Buyer Common Stock payable in respect of such Company
Shares pursuant to Section 1.5(a), (ii) the Buyer shall deliver to such holder,
upon surrender for exchange of his or her Certificate(s), a certificate
representing 90% of the Merger Shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant
to Section 1.5(a) (which Shares shall be considered Initial Shares for purposes
of this Agreement) and (iii) the Buyer shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a
certificate representing 

                                     -4-
<PAGE>   8



10% of the Merger Shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 
1.5(a) (which Shares shall be considered Escrow Shares for purposes of this 
Agreement).

     (b) The Company shall give the Buyer (i) prompt notice of any written
demands for appraisal of any Company Shares, withdrawals of such demands, and
any other instruments that relate to such demands received by the Company and
(ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to
demands for appraisal under the California Corporations Code.  The Company
shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Buyer, make any payment
with respect to any demands for appraisal of Company Shares or offer to settle
or settle any such demands.

     1.10 Articles of Incorporation.  The Articles of Incorporation of the
Surviving Corporation shall be the same as the Articles of Incorporation of the
Transitory Subsidiary immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that the
name of the corporation set forth therein shall be changed to the name of the
Company.

     1.11 No Further Rights.  From and after the Effective Time, no Company
Shares shall be deemed to be outstanding, and holders of stock certificates
evidencing Company Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease
to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger
Shares pursuant to Section 1.5.

not a party to any, nor has it received notice of any threatened litigation,
suit, action, investigation, proceeding or controversy before any court,
administrative agency or other governmental authority which has or may
reasonably be foreseen to have a Buyer Material Adverse Effect.

     3.9 Pooling of Interests.  To the knowledge of the Buyer, after

                                  ARTICLE IV
                                  COVENANTS

the Buyer shall be entitled to participate in the employee 


                                     -14-
<PAGE>   18


benefit plans and programs of the Buyer, to the extent his/her position, salary
and other qualifications makes him/her eligible to participate, and shall be
given service credit for the purposes of such plans and policies for the length
of time and position in which such employee was employed by the Company.  The 
Buyer agrees to review the salaries of such employees following the Closing and
make such increases as it deems appropriate to bring the salaries of such
employees in line with those of other comparable employees of the Buyer.  For
federal and state income tax reporting purposes, no part of the Merger Shares
will be allocated to the noncompetition agreements referred to in Section 5.1(h)
hereof, and the Buyer will not claim any deduction in respect thereof.

     4.2 Sale of Merger Shares Under Rule 144.  From and after the Closing
Date, at the request of any holder of Merger Shares (or other Registrable
Securities (as defined in Section 6.1)) who proposes to sell the same in
compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, the Buyer shall (a) promptly
furnish to such holder a written statement as to its compliance with the filing
requirements of the SEC as set forth in Rule 144, as the same may be amended
from time to time, and (b) make such additional filings of reports with the SEC
as will enable the holders of Registrable Securities to make sales thereof
pursuant to such Rule.  The Buyer shall provide its transfer agent with
appropriate instructions and/or opinions of counsel in order for any
restrictive legend contained on the certificates for the Merger Shares (or
other Registrable Securities) to be removed when appropriate and for such
holders to sell, transfer and/or dispose of the Registrable Securities in

Accounting Series Release No. 130, as amended, of the SEC) financial results
covering at least 30 days of combined operations of the Buyer and the Company

financial results are published shall be referred to herein as the "Pooling
Date"), and in any event (assuming the Closing occurs on or before December 1,
1997) no later than February 14, 1998.

     4.4 Indemnification.  The Buyer agrees and acknowledges that, following
the Effective Time, the officers and directors of the Company immediately prior
to the Effective Time shall be entitled to be indemnified by the Surviving
Corporation in their capacities as officers and directors of the Company prior
to the Effective Time to the extent provided by the Bylaws and Articles of
Incorporation of the Company in effect as of the date of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Company Stockholder shall be entitled to
indemnification pursuant to such Articles or Bylaws as to any claim by the
Buyer or any "third party claim" to which the Buyer is otherwise entitled to
indemnification pursuant to Article V of this Agreement.

     4.5 Tax Reporting.  The Parties intend that the Merger will be treated as
a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code for federal and
state income tax purposes.  The Parties agree that they will report the Merger
as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code.


                                  ARTICLE V
                               INDEMNIFICATION

     5.1 Indemnification.  The Company Stockholders shall indemnify the Buyer
and the Surviving Corporation (the "Indemnified Parties") in respect of, and
hold each Indemnified Party harmless against, any and all debts, obligations
and other liabilities, monetary damages, fines, fees, penalties, interest
obligations, deficiencies, losses and expenses (including without limitation
amounts paid in settlement, interest, court costs, costs of 



                                     -15-
<PAGE>   19



investigators, reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants, financial
advisors and other experts, and other expenses of litigation) incurred or
suffered by an Indemnified Party ("Damages"), resulting from, relating to or
constituting any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or failure to perform any
covenant or agreement of the Company contained in this Agreement.

     5.2 Method of Asserting Claims.

     (a) All claims for indemnification by the Indemnified Parties pursuant to
this Article V shall be made in accordance with the provisions of this Section
5.2 and the Escrow Agreement.  All claims for indemnification by Indemnified
Parties other than the Buyer shall be made by and through the Buyer.

     (b) If a third party asserts that an Indemnified Party is liable to such
third party for a monetary or other obligation which may constitute or result
in Damages for which such Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification
pursuant to this Article V, and the Buyer reasonably determines that it has a
valid business reason to fulfill such obligation, then (i) the Buyer shall be
entitled to satisfy such obligation, without prior notice to or consent from
the Indemnification Representatives, (ii) the Buyer may make a claim for
indemnification pursuant to this Article V, and (iii) such Indemnified Party
shall be reimbursed for any such Damages for which it is entitled to
indemnification pursuant to this Article V (subject to the right of the
Indemnification Representatives to dispute such entitlement to indemnification
pursuant to this Article V and/or the Escrow Agreement).

     (c) The Buyer shall give prompt written notification to the
Indemnification Representatives of the commencement of any action, suit or
proceeding relating to a third party claim for which indemnification pursuant
to this Article V may be sought.  Within 30 days after delivery of such
notification, the Indemnification Representatives may, upon written notice
thereof to the Buyer, assume control of the defense of such action, suit or
proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer, provided the
Indemnification Representatives acknowledge in writing to the Buyer that any
damages, fines, costs or other liabilities that may be assessed against the
Indemnified Party in connection with such action, suit or proceeding constitute
Damages for which the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification
pursuant to this Article V.  If the Indemnification Representatives do not so
assume control of such defense, the Buyer shall control such defense.  The
party not controlling such defense may participate therein at its own expense;
provided that if the Indemnification Representatives assume control of such
defense and the Buyer reasonably concludes that the Company Stockholders and
the Buyer have conflicting interests with respect to such action, suit or
proceeding, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Buyer insofar as
they relate to such conflict shall be considered "Damages" for purposes of this
Agreement.  The party controlling such defense shall keep the other party
advised of the status of such action, suit or proceeding and the defense
thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the other
party with respect thereto.  Neither the Buyer nor any other Indemnified Party
shall agree to any settlement of such action, suit or proceeding without the
prior written consent of the Indemnification Representatives, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld.  The Indemnification Representatives shall not agree
to any settlement of such action, suit or proceeding without the prior written
consent of the Buyer, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

     5.3 Survival.  The representations and warranties of the Company and the
Buyer in this Agreement shall survive the Closing and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby and continue until the date one year after the
Closing Date and shall not be affected by any examination made for 

                                     -16-
<PAGE>   20



or on behalf of the other Party or the knowledge of any of such other Party's
officers, directors, stockholders, employees or agents.  If a notice of a claim
for Damages incurred or suffered, or a notice for Damages that are reasonably   
expected to be incurred or suffered on account of a legal proceeding instituted
by or a written claim made by a third party, is properly given before the
expiration of such period, then (notwithstanding the expiration of such period)
the representation or warranty applicable to such claim shall survive until, but
only for the purposes of, the resolution of such claim.

     5.4 Limitations.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (a)
the aggregate liability of the Company Stockholders for Damages under this
Article V shall not exceed the value of the Escrow Shares, as determined in
accordance with the Escrow Agreement, and the Indemnified Parties' recourse for
claims under this Article V shall be only to the Escrow Shares and (b) the
Company Stockholders shall be liable under this Article V for only that portion
of the aggregate Damages not paid directly by the Company Stockholders which
exceeds $200,000 (provided that the limitation in this clause (b) shall not
apply to a claim made for expenses in excess of those set forth in Section
2.26).  Except with respect to claims based on fraud, the rights of the
Indemnified Parties under this Article V shall be the exclusive remedy of the
Indemnified Parties with respect to claims resulting from or relating to any
misrepresentation, breach of warranty or failure to perform any covenant or
agreement of the Company contained in this Agreement.  No Company Stockholder
shall have any right of contribution against the Company with respect to any
breach by the Company of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or
agreements.

                                  ARTICLE VI
                             REGISTRATION RIGHTS

     6.1 Registration of Shares.  The Buyer shall, promptly after the Closing,
file with the SEC, and use its best efforts to have declared effective no later
than the Pooling Date, a registration statement on Form S-3 covering the resale
to the public by the Company Stockholders of 50% of the Merger Shares, together
with any shares of Buyer Common Stock issued as a dividend or distribution or
issuable upon the conversion of exercise of any option, warrant, right or other
security which is issued as a dividend or other distribution with respect to,
or in exchange for or in replacement of, such Merger Shares (collectively, with
such Merger Shares, the "Registrable Shares").  The Buyer shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to remain eligible for the use of a
registration statement on Form S-3, but shall instead register 50% of the
Registrable Shares on a registration statement on Form S-1 if it is ineligible
for the use of a registration statement on Form S-3.  The registration
statement filed by the Buyer under this Section 6.1 shall be referred to herein
as the "Stockholder Registration Statement"; and the stockholders holding such
Registrable Shares shall be referred to as the "Rightsholders."  The Buyer
shall cause the Stockholder Registration Statement to remain effective (and the
prospectus therein updated as necessary) until one year after the Stockholder
Registration Statement is declared effective or such earlier time as all of the
Registrable Shares covered by the Stockholder Registration Statement have been
sold pursuant thereto.  At all times until all of the Merger Shares and other
Registrable Shares have been sold by the holders thereof, the Buyer shall file
with the SEC and, if applicable, Nasdaq, in a timely manner, all reports and
other documents required to be filed by the Buyer (1) with the SEC pursuant to
the Exchange Act, and (2) with Nasdaq pursuant to its rules and regulations.


                                     -17-
<PAGE>   21


     6.2 Limitations on Registration Rights.

     (a) The Buyer may, by written notice to the Rightsholders, delay the
filing or effectiveness of, or suspend, for a period no longer than 60 days,
the Stockholder Registration Statement, and require that the Rightsholders
immediately cease sales of shares pursuant to the Stockholder Registration
Statement, in any period during which the Buyer is engaged in any activity or
transaction or preparations or negotiations for any activity or transaction
("Buyer Activity") that the Buyer desires to keep confidential for business
reasons, if the Buyer determines in good faith (and so certifies to the
Rightsholders) that the public disclosure requirements imposed on the Buyer
under the Securities Act in connection with the Stockholder Registration
Statement would require disclosure of the Buyer Activity; provided, however,
that (i) the Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the
length of any such period of delay or suspension, (ii) any such delay or
suspension shall be applied in the same manner to any other registration
statement or proposed offering of the Buyer's securities proposed or then in
effect and (iii) the Buyer shall not be permitted to so delay or suspend the
Stockholder Registration Statement for an aggregate of more than 60 days in any
12-month period.

     (b) If the Buyer delays or suspends the Stockholder Registration Statement
or requires the Rightsholders to cease sales of shares pursuant to paragraph
(a) above, the Buyer shall, as promptly as practicable following the
termination of the circumstance which entitled the Buyer to do so, take such
actions as may be necessary to file or reinstate the effectiveness of the
Stockholder Registration Statement and/or give written notice to all
Rightsholders authorizing them to resume sales pursuant to the Stockholder
Registration Statement.  If as a result thereof the prospectus included in the
Stockholder Registration Statement has been amended to comply with the
requirements of the Securities Act, the Buyer shall enclose such revised
prospectus with the notice to Rightsholders given pursuant to this paragraph
(b), and the Rightsholders shall make no offers or sales of shares pursuant to
the Stockholder Registration Statement other than by means of such revised
prospectus.

     6.3 Registration Procedures.

     (a) In connection with the filing by the Buyer of the Stockholder
Registration Statement, the Buyer shall furnish to each Rightsholder such
number of copies of the prospectus, including each preliminary prospectus, and
any amendments thereto, any documents incorporated by reference therein and
such other documents as such Rightsholder may reasonably request in order to
facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Shares, all in conformity with
the requirements of the Securities Act.

     (b) The Buyer shall use its best efforts to register or qualify the
Registrable Shares covered by the Stockholder Registration Statement under the
securities laws of such states as the Rightsholders shall reasonably request;
provided, however, that the Buyer shall not be required in connection with this
paragraph (b) to qualify as a foreign corporation or execute a general consent
to service of process in any jurisdiction.

     (c) Subject to the provisions of Section 6.2, upon the happening of any
event which makes any statement made in the Stockholder Registration Statement
untrue or which requires the making of any changes therein so that it will not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact required to be stated therein, the Buyer shall promptly notify the
Rightsholders of such occurrence and shall prepare and file with the SEC, as
promptly as practicable thereafter, a supplement or amendment to the
Stockholder Registration Statement so that it will not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to 

                                     -18-
<PAGE>   22


make the statements therein not misleading.  If the Buyer has delivered
preliminary or final prospectuses to the Rightsholders and after having done so
the prospectus is amended to comply with the requirements of the Securities 
Act, the Buyer shall promptly notify the Rightsholders and, if requested by the
Buyer, the Rightsholders shall immediately cease making offers or sales of
shares under the Stockholder Registration Statement and return all prospectuses
to the Buyer.  The Buyer shall promptly provide the Rightsholders with revised
prospectuses and, following receipt of the revised prospectuses, the
Rightsholders shall be free to resume making offers and sales under the
Stockholder Registration Statement. 

     (d) The Buyer shall pay the expenses incurred by it in complying with its 
obligations under this Article VI, including without limitation all 
registration and filing fees, printing costs and the fees and expenses of the 
Buyer's counsel and accountants, but excluding any brokerage fees or 
underwriting or selling commissions incurred by the Right sholders in 
connection with sales under the Stockholder Registration Statement and 
excluding the fees and expenses of any counsel retained by the Rightsholders.

     (e) The Stockholder Registration Statement, the prospectus contained
therein, all amendments to the foregoing (other than reports filed by the Buyer
pursuant to the Exchange Act which are incorporated into the Stockholder
Registration Statement and such prospectus) shall be subject to the prior
reasonable approval of the Rightsholders and their counsel.

     (f) The Buyer shall provide and cause to be maintained a transfer agent
and registrar for all Registrable Shares covered by the Stockholder
Registration Statement from and after a date not later than the effective date
of such Stockholder Registration Statement.

     (g) The Buyer shall use its best efforts to comply with all applicable
rules and regulations of the SEC relating to the Stockholder Registration
Statement, and make available to its securityholders, as soon as reasonably
practicable but no later than 18 months after the effective date of the
Stockholder Registration Statement, an earnings statement covering the period
of at least 12 months beginning with the first full calendar month after the
effective date of the Stockholder Registration Statement, which earnings
statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

     6.4 Requirements of Rightsholders.  Each Rightsholder executing this
Agreement hereby agrees, and each other Rightsholder shall as a condition to
the inclusion of his or her Registrable Shares in the Stockholder Registration
Statement provide to the Buyer a written instrument agreeing, as follows:

     (a) to furnish to the Buyer in writing such information regarding such
Rightsholder, the contemplated distribution of the Registrable Shares by such
Rightsholder (which may be by whatever lawful method or methods, whether to an
underwriter or through brokers or otherwise, as the Rightsholders may choose)
and such other information as the Buyer may reasonably request in connection
with the Stockholder Registration Statement or as shall be required in
connection therewith by the SEC or any state securities law authorities;

     (b) to indemnify the Buyer and each of its directors and officers against,
and hold the Buyer and each of its directors and officers harmless from, any
losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (including reasonable
attorneys fees) to which the Buyer or such directors and officers may become
subject by reason of any statement or omission in the Stockholder Registration
Statement made in reliance upon, or in conformity with, written information
furnished by such Rightsholder pursuant to this Section 6.4;

                                     -19-
<PAGE>   23

     (c) to report to the Buyer sales made pursuant to the Stockholder
Registration Statement; and

     (d) to comply with the provisions of this Article VI.

     6.5 Indemnification.  The Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
each Rightsholder whose Registrable Shares are included in the Stockholder
Registration Statement against any losses, claims, damages, expenses or
liabilities to which such Rightsholder may become subject by reason of any
untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Stockholder Registration
Statement or any omission to state therein a fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as
such losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities arise out of or are based
upon statements or omissions made in reliance upon, or in conformity with,
written information furnished to the Buyer by or on behalf of a Rightsholder
for use in the Stockholder Registration Statement.  The Buyer shall have the
right to assume the defense and settlement of any claim or suit for which the
Buyer may be responsible for indemnification under this Section 6.5; provided
that the Buyer shall not settle any claim or suit in respect of a Rightsholder
without the written consent of such Rightsholder unless such settlement
includes an unconditional release of such Rightsholder from all liability in
respect of such claim or suit.

     6.6 Assignment of Rights.  A Rightsholder may not assign any of its
rights under this Article VI except in connection with the transfer of some or
all of his or her Registrable Shares to a child or spouse, or trust for their
benefit, to the person to whom such Registrable Shares are transferred by the
laws of descent and distribution or to a person to whom at least one-half of
all the Registrable Shares held by such Rightsholder are transferred, provided
each such transferee agrees in a written instrument delivered to the Buyer to
be bound by the provisions of this Article VI.

unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making the determination of
invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope,
duration, or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or
phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a
