WHEREAS, the Company wishes to sell to the Pequot Entities and the
Pequot Entities wish to purchase from the Company (i) shares of Series D
Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Series D Preferred
Stock"), convertible into shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $.01
per share (the "Series D Preferred Stock") convertible into shares of the
Company's Common Stock, par value $.01 (the "Common Stock") and (ii) warrants,

Warrants set forth opposite such entity's name on Exhibit B- I (the "Initial
Purchase") and Exhibit B-2 (the "Subsequent Purchase"), respectively

entity's name on each exhibit. The aggregate purchase price to be paid by the

hereunder is set forth on Exhibit B-1 and B-2, as the case may be, as "Total
Purchase Price" (collectively, the "Purchase Price").
1.2. The Closings. (a) (i) The closing of the Initial Purchase (the
"Initial Closing") shall take place at the offices of Fried, Frank, Harris,
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, the parties

purchase price therefor, which shall be paid by wire transfer to an account
designated at least one business day prior to each of the Closings by the
Company. The Purchasers shall notify the Company as to the names and amounts to
be included on the certificates to be issued two business days prior to each of

Price paid by the Pequot Entities for the Series D Preferred Stock and Warrants,
an additional amount of Series D Preferred Stock such that, if such issuance of

conversion price in effect at the time the last shares of Series D Preferred
Stock were converted into shares of Common Stock) of the amount of Series D
Preferred Stock which would have been issued with respect to such Purchase Price
adjustment
-4-
pursuant to Section 1.4(a) if such Purchase Price adjustment had been made
immediately prior to the time the last shares of Series D Preferred Stock were

any dividends or other distributions which would have accrued or have been
payable with respect to, and the application of any antidilution, ratable
treatment or similar provisions (as set forth in the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation, applicable law or otherwise) which would have been applicable to,
such shares of Series D Preferred Stock and Common Stock had they been issued on
the date hereof or on the date of the Subsequent Closing, as the case may be.
(d) In connection with (i) any issuance of Series D Preferred
Stock pursuant to Section 1.4(a) (with respect to any such issuance, the amount
of Series D Preferred Stock so issued referred to as the "Additional Preferred
Stock Amount"), the Company shall promptly issue to the Pequot Entities (on a
pro rata basis based on the number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock
purchased hereunder by each entity), at no cost to the Pequot Entities and as an
adjustment to the Purchase Price paid by the Pequot Entities for the Series D
Preferred Stock and the Warrants, an additional number of Warrants having the

any issuance of Common Stock pursuant to Section 1.4(b), the Company shall
promptly issue to the Pequot Entities (on a pro rata basis based on the number
of shares of Series D Preferred Stock purchased hereunder by each entity), at no
cost to the Pequot Entities and as an adjustment to the Purchase Price paid by
the Pequot Entities for the Series D Preferred Stock and the Warrants, an
additional number of Warrants having the right to purchase an amount of Common
Stock equal to one-third of the Additional Common Stock Amount in respect of
such issuance.
(e) In connection with any issuance of Series D Preferred
Stock and/or Warrants pursuant to this Section 1.4, the Company shall reserve a
sufficient number of shares of (i) Common Stock for issuance to the Pequot
Entities upon exercise of the Warrants so issued and (ii) Common Stock for

SECTION 2. Representations and Warranties of the Company.
The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Purchasers as follows:
2.1. Organization and Good Standing; Power and Authority;
Qualifications. Each of the Company and its subsidiary, Encotone, Inc. (the
"Subsidiary") (i) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and (ii) has all requisite power
and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its
business as presently conducted and as proposed to be conducted. The Company has
all requisite power and authority to enter into and carry out the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents to which it is a
party. Each of the Company and the Subsidiary is qualified to transact business
as a foreign corporation in, and is in good standing under the laws of, those
jurisdictions listed on Schedule 2.1 under its name, which jurisdictions
constitute all of the jurisdictions wherein the character of the property owned
or leased or the nature of the activities conducted by it makes such
qualification necessary and where failure to so qualify would individually or in
the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the properties, business,
prospects, operations, earnings, assets, liabilities or the condition (financial
or otherwise) of the Company and its Subsidiary taken as a whole (a "Material
Adverse Effect").
2.2. Authorization of the Documents. The execution, delivery and
performance by the Company of this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Documents
to which it is a party has been duly authorized by all requisite corporate
action on the part of the Company (and do not or will not require the approval
or consent of the stockholders of the Company), and each of this Agreement and
the Ancillary Documents constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms except to
the extent that enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other
similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally.
2.3. Capitalization. The authorized capitalization of the Company
immediately following the Initial Purchase will consist of (a) 5,000,000 shares
of Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share, of which (i) 5,000,000 shares have
been designated Series D Preferred Stock and (ii) 1,666,667 shares of Series D
Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding and all such outstanding shares are
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free and clear of all
Encumbrances, other than Encumbrances, if any, arising as a result of actions
taken by the Purchasers; and (b) 25,000,000 shares of Common Stock of which
9,204,946 shares are issued and outstanding and all such outstanding shares are
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free and clear of all
Encumbrances. No class of capital stock of the Company is entitled to preemptive
rights. Except as listed on Schedule 2.3 hereto, there are no outstanding
options,
-7-
warrants, subscription rights, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever
relating to, or securities or rights convertible into, shares of any class of
capital stock of the Company, or Contracts, by which the Company or the
Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional shares of its capital
stock or options, warrants or other rights to purchase or acquire any shares of
its capital stock. Except as set forth in Schedule 2.3 hereto, since December
31, 1996, the Company has not declared or paid any dividend or made any other
distribution of cash, stock or other property to its stockholders. Except as
contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents or except for the
right to vote its shares of Common Stock for the election of directors, no
person has the right to nominate or elect one or more directors of the Company.
The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series D Preferred
Stock and exercise of the Warrants issued to Pequot Entities on the dates of the
Initial Closing and the Subsequent Closing under this Agreement represent, in
the aggregate, 20.79% and 34.43% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company
on the date of the Initial Closing and the Subsequent Closing, respectively, and
the voting power of such issued shares represent, in the aggregate, 20.79% and
34.43% of the total number of votes able to be cast on any matter by all voting
securities of the Company (other than any matter to be voted on by the holders
of shares of Series D Preferred Stock as a separate class) on the date of the
Initial Closing and the Subsequent Closing, respectively (treating for purposes
of these calculations (i) all outstanding warrants, options, agreements,
securities (including notes and debt securities) or other commitments
convertible, exercisable or exchangeable into shares of capital stock or other
equity securities of the Company or pursuant to which the equity securities of
the Company ("Common Stock Equivalents") outstanding on the date hereof
(including the Warrants) as having been converted, exchanged or exercised, (ii)
any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents issuable pursuant to any
Contract entered into by the Company on or prior to the date hereof, or any
preemptive right granted by the Company on or prior to the date hereof, in each
case, as having been issued on the date hereof and (iii) all shares of Common
Stock issuable under the Company's management option pool as having been issued
on the date hereof).

shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder.
In order to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, Holder shall
deliver to the Company at its principal office at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇ (i) a written notice of Holder's election to exercise this Warrant, which
notice shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased, (ii)
payment of the Warrant Price and (iii) this Warrant. Such notice shall be
substantially in the form appearing at the end of this Warrant as Exhibit A,
duly executed by Holder. Upon receipt of the items specified in the second
preceding sentence, the Company shall execute or cause to be executed and
deliver or cause to be delivered to Holder a certificate or certificates
representing the aggregate number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon
such exercise, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, as
hereinafter provided. The stock certificate or certificates so delivered shall
be in such denomination or denominations as Holder shall request in the notice
and shall be registered in the name of Holder or, subject to Section 9, such
other name as shall be designated in the notice. This Warrant shall be deemed to
have been exercised and such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have
been issued, and Holder or any other Person so designated shall be deemed to
have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date
the notice, together with the Warrant Price and this Warrant, are received by
the Company as described above. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in
part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or
certificates representing Warrant Stock, deliver to Holder a new Warrant
evidencing the right of Holder to purchase the unpurchased shares of Common
Stock called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects
be identical with this Warrant, or, at the request of Holder, appropriate
notation may be made on this Warrant and the same returned to Holder.
Payment of the Warrant Price shall be made at the option of Holder (i)
by certified or official bank check or (ii) by the surrender of this Warrant to
the Company, with a duly executed exercise notice marked to reflect "Net Issue
Exercise," and, in either case, specifying the number of shares of Common Stock
to be purchased, during normal business hours on any Business Day. Upon a Net
Issue Exercise, Holder shall be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock equal
to the value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being exercised by Net
Issue Exercise) by surrender of this Warrant to the Company together with notice
of such election, in which event the Company shall issue to Holder a number of
shares of the Company's Common Stock computed as of the date of surrender of
this Warrant to the Company using the following formula:
X = Y (A-B)

Y = the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise purchasable
under this Warrant (at the date of such calculation);
A = the Current Market Price of one share of the Company's
Common Stock (at the date of such calculation);
B = the Current Warrant Price (as adjusted to the date
of such calculation).
2.2. Payment of Taxes.2.2.Payment of Taxes All shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be validly issued, fully paid
and nonassessable and without any preemptive rights. The Company shall pay all
expenses in connection with, and all taxes and other governmental charges that
may be imposed with respect to, the issue or delivery thereof.
2.3. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue a
fractional share of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant. As to any
fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon
such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such
fraction in an amount equal to the same fraction of the Current Market Price per
share of Common Stock on the date of exercise.
2.4. Mandatory Exercise at the Company's Option. In the event that the
closing bid price for the Common Stock on the NASDAQ (or any exchange on which
the Common Stock is being traded) exceeds $6.00 (as adjusted for any stock
dividends, stock splits, subdivisions, reclassifications or combinations
occurring after the Initial Closing Date) for ten Trading Days in a period of 25
consecutive Trading Days at any time during the second quarter ending June 30,
1999, the Company may, by written notice to the Holders, require the Holders to
exercise the Warrants in whole (but not in part).

Warrant and all rights hereunder, in whole or in part, shall be registered on
the books of the Company to be maintained for such purpose, upon surrender of
this Warrant at the principal office of the Company referred to in Section 2.1,
together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form of
Exhibit B hereto duly executed by Holder and funds sufficient to pay any
transfer taxes payable upon the making of such Transfer. Upon such surrender
and, if required, such payment, the Company shall, subject to Section 9, execute
and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees
and in the denomination specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall
issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not
so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be canceled. A Warrant, if properly
assigned in compliance with Section 9, may be exercised by a new Holder for the
purchase of shares of Common Stock without having a new Warrant issued.

be divided into multiple Warrants or combined with other Warrants upon
presentation hereof at the aforesaid office or agency of the Company, together
with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new
Warrants are to be issued, signed by Holder. Subject to compliance with Section
3.1 and with Section 9, as to any Transfer which may be involved in such
division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or
Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in
accordance with such notice.
3.3. Expenses. The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at
its own expense (other than transfer taxes) the new Warrant or Warrants under
this Section 3.
3.4. Maintenance of Books. The Company agrees to maintain, at its
aforesaid office, books for the registration and the registration of Transfer
of the Warrants.
4. ADJUSTMENTS
The number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable and/or the price at which such shares may be purchased upon exercise
of this Warrant, shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth
in this Section 4. The Company shall give each Holder notice of any event
described below which requires an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4 at the
time of such event.
4.1. Stock Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations. In case the
Company shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof (A) take a
record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to
receive a dividend, or any distribution, on the outstanding shares of Common
Stock in Additional Shares of Common Stock, (B) subdivide the outstanding shares
of Common Stock, (C) combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares or (D) issue by reclassification of the shares of
Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then (i) the number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after
the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted to equal the number of shares
of Common Stock which a record holder of the same number of shares of Common
Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the occurrence
of such event would own or be entitled to receive after the happening of such
event, and (ii) the Current Warrant Price per share shall be adjusted to equal
(A) the Current Warrant Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock
for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment
divided by (B) the number of shares for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately after such adjustment. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section
4.1 shall become effective (x) in the case of any such dividend or distribution,
immediately after the close of business on the record date for the determination
of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or
distribution, or (y) in the case of such subdivision, reclassification or
combination, at the close of business on the day upon which such corporate
action becomes effective.
-7-
4.2. Certain Other Distributions. If the Company shall at any
time or from time to time after the date hereof declare, order, pay or make
a dividend or other distribution of:
(a) cash,
(b) any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of its stock
or any other securities or property of any nature whatsoever by way of
dividend (other than cash, Convertible Securities or Additional Shares
of Common Stock), or
(c) any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase
any evidences of its indebtedness, any shares of its stock or any other
securities or property of any nature whatsoever (other than cash,
Convertible Securities or Additional Shares of Common Stock),
then (i) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable shall be adjusted to equal the product of the number of shares of
Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such
adjustment by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the Current Market
Price per share of Common Stock for the period of 20 Trading Days preceding such
adjustment and (B) the denominator of which shall be such Current Market Price
per share of Common Stock less the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock
of any such dividend or distribution and (ii) the Current Warrant Price shall be
adjusted to equal (A) the Current Warrant Price multiplied by the number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior
to the adjustment divided by (B) the number of shares for which this Warrant is
exercisable immediately after such adjustment. A reclassification of the Common
Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value or
from no par value to par value) into shares of Common Stock and shares of any
other class of stock shall be deemed a distribution by the Company to the
holders of its Common Stock of such shares of such other class of stock within
the meaning of this Section 4.2 and, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock
shall be changed into a larger or smaller number of shares of Common Stock as a
part of such reclassification, such change shall be deemed a subdivision or
combination, as the case may be, of the outstanding shares of Common Stock
within the meaning of Section 4.1.
4.3. Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock. If at any time the
Company shall (except as hereinafter provided) issue or sell any Additional
Shares of Common Stock, other than Permitted Issuances, in exchange for
consideration in an amount per Additional Share of Common Stock less than the
Current Warrant Price at the time the Additional Shares of Common Stock are
issued, then (i) the Current Warrant Price as to the number of shares for which
this Warrant is exercisable prior to such adjustment shall be reduced to a price
determined by dividing (A) an amount equal to the sum of (x) the number of
shares of Common Stock Outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale
multiplied by the then existing Current Warrant Price, plus (y) the
consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such issue or sale, by (B)
the total number of shares of Common Stock Outstanding
-8-
immediately after such issue or sale; and (ii) the number of shares of Common
Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted to equal the
product obtained by multiplying the Current Warrant Price in effect immediately
prior to such issue or sale by the number of shares of Common Stock for which
this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such issue or sale and dividing
the product thereof by the Current Warrant Price resulting from the adjustment
made pursuant to clause (i) above.
4.4. Issuance of Warrants or Other Rights. If at any time the Company
shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any manner (whether
directly or by assumption in a merger in which the Company is the surviving
corporation) issue or sell, any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or
purchase any Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Convertible Securities,
whether or not the rights to exchange or convert thereunder are immediately
exercisable, and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the
exercise of such Warrants or other rights or upon conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities shall be less than the Current Warrant Price in effect
immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then the number of shares
for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Current Warrant Price shall be
adjusted as provided in Section 4.3 on the basis that the maximum number of
Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to all such warrants or
other rights or necessary to effect the conversion or exchange of all such
Convertible Securities shall be deemed to have been issued and outstanding and
the Company shall have received all of the consideration payable therefor, if
any, as of the date of the actual issuance of the number of shares for which
this Warrant is exercisable and such warrants or other rights. No further
adjustments of the Current Warrant Price shall be made upon the actual issue of
such Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon exercise of such
warrants or other rights or upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon such
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no adjustment shall be required under this Section 4.4 solely by
reason of the issuance of stock purchase rights under a stockholder rights plan
of the Company, provided that the adjustments required by this Section 4.4 shall
be made if any "flip-in" or "flip-over" event shall occur under such stockholder
rights plan.
4.5. Issuance of Convertible Securities. If at any time the Company
shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any manner (whether
directly or by assumption in a merger in which the Company is the surviving
corporation) issue or sell, any Convertible Securities, whether or not the
rights to exchange or convert thereunder are immediately exercisable, and the
price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or
exchange shall be less than the Current Warrant Price in effect immediately
prior to the time of such issue or sale, then the number of shares for which
this Warrant is exercisable and the Current Warrant Price shall be adjusted as
provided in Section 4.3 on the basis that the maximum number of Additional
Shares of Common Stock necessary to effect the conversion or exchange of all
such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to have been issued and outstanding
and the Company shall have received all of the consideration payable therefor,
if any, as of the date of
-9-
actual issuance of such Convertible Securities. No adjustment of the number of
shares for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Current Warrant Price shall
be made under this Section 4.5 upon the issuance of any Convertible Securities
which are issued pursuant to the exercise of any warrants or other subscription
or purchase rights therefor, if any such adjustment shall previously have been
made upon the issuance of such warrants or other rights pursuant to Section 4.4.
No further adjustments of the number of shares for which this Warrant is
exercisable and the Current Warrant Price shall be made upon the actual issue of
such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities
and, if any issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise
of any warrant or other right to subscribe for or to purchase any such
Convertible Securities for which adjustments of the number of shares for which
this Warrant is exercisable and the Current Warrant Price have been or are to be
made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 4, no further adjustments of
the number of shares for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Current
Warrant Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.
4.6. Superseding Adjustment. If, at any time after any adjustment
of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
and the Current Warrant Price shall have been made pursuant to Section 4.4 or
Section 4.5 as the result of any issuance of warrants, rights or Convertible
Securities,
(a) such warrants or rights, or the right of conversion or
exchange in such other Convertible Securities, shall expire, and all or
a portion of such warrants or rights, or the right of conversion or
exchange with respect to all or a portion of such other Convertible
Securities, as the case may be, shall not have been exercised, or
(b) the consideration per share for which shares of Common
Stock are issuable pursuant to such warrants or rights, or the terms of
such other Convertible Securities, shall be increased solely by virtue
of provisions therein contained for an automatic increase in such
consideration per share upon the occurrence of a specified date or
event, then for each outstanding Warrant such previous adjustment shall
be rescinded and annulled and the Additional Shares of Common Stock
which were deemed to have been issued by virtue of the computation made
in connection with the adjustment so rescinded and annulled shall no
longer be deemed to have been issued by virtue of such computation.
Thereupon, a recomputation shall be made of the effect of such rights
or options or other Convertible Securities on the basis of
(c) treating the number of Additional Shares of Common Stock
or other property, if any, theretofore actually issued or issuable
pursuant to the previous exercise of any such warrants or rights or any
such right of conversion or exchange, as having been issued on the date
or dates of any such exercise and for the consideration actually
received and receivable therefor, and
-10-
(d) treating any such warrants or rights or any such other
Convertible Securities which then remain outstanding as having been
granted or issued immediately after the time of such increase of the
consideration per share for which shares of Common Stock or other
property are issuable under such warrants or rights or other
Convertible Securities; whereupon a new adjustment of the number of
shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the
Current Warrant Price shall be made, which new adjustment shall
supersede the previous adjustment so rescinded and annulled.
4.7. Other Provisions Applicable to Adjustments under this Section. The
following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments of the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the
Current Warrant Price provided for in this Section 4:
(a) Computation of Consideration. To the extent that any
Additional Shares of Common Stock or any Convertible Securities or any
warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any Additional
Shares of Common Stock or any Convertible Securities shall be issued
for cash consideration, the consideration received by the Company
therefor shall be the amount of the cash received by the Company
therefor, or, if such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Convertible
Securities are offered by the Company for subscription, the
subscription price, or, if such Additional Shares of Common Stock or
Convertible Securities are sold to underwriters or dealers for public
offering without a subscription offering, the public offering price (in
any such case subtracting any amounts paid or receivable for accrued
interest or accrued dividends and without taking into account any
compensation, discounts or expenses paid or incurred by the Company for
and in the underwriting of, or otherwise in connection with, the
issuance thereof). To the extent that such issuance shall be for a
consideration other than cash, then, except as herein otherwise
expressly provided, the amount of such consideration shall be deemed to
be the Fair Market Value of such consideration at the time of such
issuance. In case any Additional Shares of Common Stock or any
Convertible Securities or any warrants or other rights to subscribe for
or purchase such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Convertible
Securities shall be issued in connection with any merger in which the
Company issues any securities, the amount of consideration therefor
shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Value of such portion of the
assets and business of the nonsurviving corporation as such Board in
good faith shall determine to be attributable to such Additional Shares
of Common Stock, Convertible Securities, warrants or other rights, as
the case may be. The consideration for any Additional Shares of Common
Stock issuable pursuant to any warrants or other rights to subscribe
for or purchase the same shall be the consideration received by the
Company for issuing such warrants or other rights plus the additional
consideration payable to the Company upon exercise of such warrants or
other rights. The consideration for any Additional Shares of Common
Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of any Convertible Securities
shall be the consideration received by the Company
-11-
for issuing warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase such
Convertible Securities, plus the consideration paid or payable to the
Company in respect of the subscription for or purchase of such
Convertible Securities, plus the additional consideration, if any,
payable to the Company upon the exercise of the right of conversion or
exchange in such Convertible Securities. In case of the issuance at any
time of any Additional Shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities
in payment or satisfaction of any dividends upon any class of stock
other than Common Stock, the Company shall be deemed to have received
for such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities a
consideration equal to the amount of such dividend so paid or
satisfied. If Additional Shares of Common Stock are sold as a unit with
other securities or rights of value, the aggregate consideration
received for such Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to
be net of the Fair Market Value of such other securities or rights of
value.
(b) When Adjustments to Be Made. The adjustments required by
this Section 4 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified
event requiring an adjustment shall occur, except that any adjustment
of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable that would otherwise be required may be postponed (except
in the case of a subdivision or combination of shares of the Common
Stock, as provided for in Section 4.1) up to, but not beyond the date
of exercise if such adjustment either by itself or with other
adjustments not previously made results in an increase or decrease of
less than 1% of the shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable immediately prior to the making of such adjustment;
provided, however, that such adjustment must result in an adjustment of
$.01 or more. Any adjustment representing a change of less than such
minimum amount (except as aforesaid) which is postponed shall be
carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together with
other adjustments required by this Section 4 and not previously made,
would result in a minimum adjustment or on the date of exercise. For
the purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to
have occurred at the close of business on the date of its occurrence.
(c) Fractional Interests. In computing adjustments under
this Section 4, fractional interests in Common Stock shall be
taken into account to the nearest 1/100th of a share.
(d) When Adjustment Not Required. If the Company shall take a
record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling
them to receive a dividend or distribution or subscription or purchase
rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to
stockholders thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such
dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then
thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of
such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof
shall be rescinded and annulled.
-12-
(e) Escrow of Warrant Stock. If, after any property becomes
distributable pursuant to this Section 4 by reason of the taking of any
record of the holders of Common Stock, but prior to the occurrence of
the event for which such record is taken, Holder exercises this
Warrant, any Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise
by reason of such adjustment shall be deemed the last shares of Common
Stock for which this Warrant is exercised (notwithstanding any other
provision to the contrary herein) and such shares or other property
shall be held in escrow for Holder by the Company to be issued to
Holder when and to the extent that the event actually takes place, upon
payment of the then Current Warrant Price. Notwithstanding any other
provision to the contrary herein, if the event for which such record
was taken fails to occur or is rescinded, then such escrowed shares
shall be canceled by the Company and escrowed property returned.
(f) Challenge to Good Faith Determination. Whenever the Board
of Directors shall be required to make a determination in good faith of
the fair value of any item under this Section 4, such determination may
be challenged in good faith by the Majority Holders, and, after 20
Business Days in which the parties hereto shall, in good faith, attempt
to resolve any dispute related hereto, then any dispute shall be
resolved by an investment banking firm of recognized national standing
selected by the Company and acceptable to the Majority Holders.
4.8. Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or
Disposition of Assets. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital,
reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another
corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there
is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company),
or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property,
assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of
assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any
cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever
(including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or
in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation ("Other
Property"), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock,
then Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this
Warrant and payment of the Warrant Price, the number of shares of common stock
of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the
surviving corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets
by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
exercisable immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor
or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the
due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and
condition of this Warrant to be performed and observed by the Company and all
the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may
be deemed appropriate (as determined by resolution of
-13-
the Board of Directors) in order to provide for adjustments of shares of the
Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly
equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4. For
purposes of this Section 4.8, "common stock of the successor or acquiring
corporation" shall include stock of such corporation of any class which is not
preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such
corporation and which is not subject to redemption and shall also include any
evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are
convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon
the arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event and any
warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The
foregoing provisions of this Section 4.8 shall similarly apply to successive
reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of
assets.
4.9. Other Action Affecting Common Stock. In case at any time or from
time to time the Company shall take any action in respect of its Common Stock,
other than any action described in this Section 4, then the number of shares of
Common Stock or other stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and/or the
purchase price thereof shall be adjusted in such manner as may be equitable in
the circumstances.
4.10. Certain Limitations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Company agrees not to enter into any transaction which, by reason
of any adjustmenthereunder, would cause the Current Warrant Price to be less
than the par value per share of Common Stock.
5. NOTICES TO WARRANT HOLDERS
5.1. Notice of Adjustments; Change in Warrant Status. Whenever the
number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable, or
whenever the price at which a share of such Common Stock may be purchased upon
exercise of the Warrants, shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section
4, the Company shall forthwith prepare a certificate to be executed by the chief
financial officer of the Company setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event
requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated
(including a description of the basis on which the Board of Directors determined
the Fair Market Value of any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock, other
securities or property or warrants or other subscription or purchase rights
referred to in Section 4.2 or 4.7(a)), specifying the number of shares of Common
Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and (if such adjustment was made
pursuant to Section 4.8 or 4.9) describing the number and kind of any other
shares of stock or Other Property for which this Warrant is exercisable, and any
change in the purchase price or prices thereof, after giving effect to such
adjustment or change. The Company shall promptly cause a signed copy of such
certificate to be delivered to each Holder in accordance with Section 12.2. The
Company shall keep at its principal office copies of all such certificates and
cause the same to be available for inspection at said office during normal
business hours by any Holder or any prospective purchaser of a Warrant
designated by a Holder thereof.
-14-
5.2. Notice of Corporate Action. If at any time
(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its
Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend
(other than a cash dividend payable out of earnings or earned surplus
legally available for the payment of dividends under the laws of the
jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company) or other distribution, or
any right to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its
indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other securities
or property, or to receive any other right, or
(b) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company,
any reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the
Company or any consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any
sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all the
property, assets or business of the Company to, another corporation, or
(c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in any one or more of
such cases, the Company shall give to Holder (i) at least 20 days'
prior written notice of the date on which a record date shall be
selected for such dividend, distribution or right or for determining
rights to vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification,
merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution,
liquidation or winding up, and (ii) in the case of any such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale,
transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least
20 days' prior written notice of the date when the same shall take
place. Such notice in accordance with the foregoing clause also shall
specify (i) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the
purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, the date on which the
holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to any such dividend,
distribution or right, and the amount and character thereof, and (ii)
the date on which any such reorganization, reclassification, merger,
consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or
winding up is to take place and the time, if any such time is to be
fixed, as of which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to
exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities or other property
deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, merger,
consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or
winding up. Each such written notice shall be sufficiently given if
addressed to Holder at the last address of Holder appearing on the
books of the Company and delivered in accordance with Section 12.2.
6. RIGHTS OF HOLDERS
6.1 No Impairment. The Company shall not by any action, including,
without limitation, amending its Certificate of Incorporation or comparable
governing instruments or through any reorganization, transfer of assets,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other
voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or
-15-
performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good
faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such
actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder
against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Company will (a) not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock
receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the amount payable therefor
upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (b) take all
such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may
validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock
upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (c) use its best efforts to obtain all
such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body
having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform
its obligations under this Warrant.
Upon the request of Holder, the Company will at any time during the
period this Warrant is outstanding acknowledge in writing, in form reasonably
satisfactory to Holder, the continuing validity of this Warrant and the
obligations of the Company hereunder.
7. RESERVATION AND AUTHORIZATION OF COMMON STOCK;
REGISTRATION WITH OR APPROVAL OF ANY GOVERNMENTAL
AUTHORITY
From and after the Initial Closing Date, the Company shall at all times
reserve and keep available for issue upon the exercise of Warrants such number
of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as will be sufficient to
permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants. All shares of Common
Stock which shall be so issuable, when issued upon exercise of any Warrant and
payment therefor in accordance with the terms of such Warrant, shall be duly and
validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, and not subject to preemptive
rights.
Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the
Current Warrant Price below the then par value, if any, of the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, the Company shall take any
corporate action which may be necessary in order that the Company may validly
and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of such Common Stock at
such adjusted Current Warrant Price.
8. TAKING OF RECORD; STOCK AND WARRANT TRANSFER BOOKS
In the case of all dividends or other distributions by the Company to
the holders of its Common Stock with respect to which any provision of Section 4
refers to the taking of a record of such holders, the Company will in each such
case take such a record and will take such record as of the close of business on
a Business Day. The Company will not at any time, except upon dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the Company, close its stock transfer books or
Warrant transfer books so as to result in preventing or delaying the exercise or
Transfer of any Warrant.
-16-
9. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY
The Warrants and the Warrant Stock shall not be transferred,
hypothecated or assigned before satisfaction of the conditions specified in this
Section 9, which conditions are intended to ensure compliance with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the Transfer of any Warrant or
any Warrant Stock. Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, agrees to be bound by
the provisions of this Section 9.
9.1. Restrictive Legend. Except as otherwise provided in this Section
9, each Warrant and each certificate for Warrant Stock initially issued upon the
exercise of a Warrant, and each certificate for Warrant Stock issued to any
subsequent transferee of any such certificate, shall be stamped or otherwise
imprinted with the following legend:
"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THE
SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE
SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE
WITH SUCH ACT."
9.2. Registration Rights. The holders of Warrants and Warrant
Stock shall have the registration rights set forth in the Registration Rights
Agreement.
10. LOSS OR MUTILATION
Upon receipt by the Company from any Holder of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and in
case of mutilation upon surrender and cancellation hereof, the Company will
execute and deliver in lieu hereof a new Warrant of like tenor to such Holder;
provided, in the case of mutilation, no indemnity shall be required if this
Warrant in identifiable form is surrendered to the Company for cancellation.
11. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
No provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by Holder to
purchase shares of Common Stock, and no enumeration herein of the rights or
privileges of Holder hereof, shall give rise to any liability of such Holder for
the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company,
whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the
Company.
12. MISCELLANEOUS
12.1. Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or
failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as
a waiver of such right or
-17-
otherwise prejudice Holder's rights, powers or remedies. If the Company fails to
make, when due, any payments provided for hereunder, or fails to comply with any
other provision of this Warrant, the Company shall pay to Holder such amounts as
shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited
to, reasonable attorneys' fees, including those of appellate proceedings,
incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise
enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
12.2. Notice Generally. Any notice, demand, request, consent, approval,
declaration, delivery or other communication hereunder to be made pursuant to
the provisions of this Warrant shall be sufficiently given or made if in writing

12.3. Remedies. Each holder of Warrant and Warrant Stock, in addition
to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of
damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under of this

2. Registration Rights.
2.1. Demand Registrations.
(a) (i) Subject to Sections 2.1 (b) and 2.3 below, at any time
and from time to time, so long as any Holder holds Registrable Securities
constituting in excess of 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (assuming
for purposes of making this computation that any shares of Preferred Stock held
by such Holder have been converted into shares of Common Stock), each Holder
shall have the right to require the Company to file a registration statement
under the Securities Act covering all or any part of their respective
Registrable Securities, by delivering a written request therefor to the Company
specifying the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such
registration by such Holder(s) and the intended method of distribution thereof.
All such requests by any Holder pursuant to this Section 2.1 (a)(i) are referred
to herein as "Demand Registration Requests," and the registrations so requested
are referred to herein as "Demand Registrations" (with respect to any Demand
Registration, the Holder(s) making such demand for registration being referred
to as the "Initiating Holder"). As promptly as practicable, but no later than
ten days after receipt of a Demand Registration Request, the Company shall give
written notice (the "Demand Exercise
- 2 -
Notice") of such Demand Registration Request to all Holders of record of
Registrable Securities.
(ii) The Company, subject to Sections 2.3 and
2.6, shall include in such Demand Registration (x) the Registrable Securities
of the Initiating Holder and (y) the Registrable Securities of any other
Holder which shall have made a written request to the Company for inclusion in
such registration (which request shall specify the maximum number of
Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holder) within
15 days after the receipt of the Demand Exercise Notice.
(iii) The Company shall, as expeditiously as
possible, use its best efforts to (x) effect the registration under the
Securities Act (including, without limitation, by means of a shelf
registration pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act if so requested
and if the Company is then eligible to use such a registration) of the
Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register,
for distribution in accordance with such intended method of distribution and
(y) if requested by the Initiating Holder, obtain acceleration of the
effective date of the registration statement relating to such registration.
(b) The Demand Registration rights granted in Section 2.1 (a)
to the Holders are subject to the following limitations: (i) each registration
in respect of a Demand Registration Request shall be made on Form S-3 or any
equivalent form then in effect (or, if Form S-3 or any equivalent form is not
available, on a Form S-1 or S-2 as determined by the Company, if the use of such
forms is then available) and must include, in the aggregate (based on the Common
Stock included in such registration by all Holders), shares of Common Stock
representing, in the aggregate, 1.0% or more of the amount of shares of Common
Stock outstanding immediately prior to such registration; (ii) the Company shall
not be required to cause a registration pursuant to Section 2.1 (a)(i) to be
declared effective within a period of 180 days after the date any registration
statement of the Company declared effective pursuant to a Demand Registration
Request was filed; (iii) if the Board of Directors of the Company, in its good
faith judgment, determines that any registration of Registrable Securities
should not be made or continued because it would materially interfere with any
material financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or merger or other
transaction involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries (a "Valid Business
Reason"), (x) the Company may postpone filing a registration statement relating
to a Demand Registration Request until such Valid Business Reason no longer
exists, but in no event for more than 120 days, and (y) in case a registration
statement has been filed relating to a Demand Registration Request, if the Valid
Business Reason has not resulted from actions taken by the Company, the Company
may cause such registration statement to be withdrawn and its effectiveness
terminated or may postpone amending or supplementing such registration statement
until such Valid Business Reason no longer exists, but in no event for more than
four months (such period of postponement or withdrawal under subclause(s) (x) or
(y) of this clause (iii), the "Postponement Period"); and the Company shall give
written notice of its determination to postpone or withdraw a registration
statement and of the fact that the Valid Business Reason for such postponement
or
- 3 -
withdrawal no longer exists, in each case, promptly after the occurrence
thereof, provided, however, the Company shall not be permitted to postpone or
withdraw a registration statement after the expiration of any Postponement
Period until 9 months after the expiration of such Postponement Period; and (iv)
the Company shall not be required to effect an effective registration with
respect to more than two Demand Registration Requests pursuant to this
Agreement.
If the Company shall give any notice of postponement or withdrawal of
any registration statement, the Company shall not, during the period of
postponement or withdrawal, register any Common Stock, other than pursuant to a
registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8 (or an equivalent registration form
then in effect). Each Holder of Registrable Securities agrees that, upon receipt
of any notice from the Company that the Company has determined to withdraw any
registration statement pursuant to clause (iii) above, such Holder will
discontinue its disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to such
registration statement and, if so directed by the Company, will deliver to the
Company (at the Company's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies,
then in such Holder's possession of the prospectus covering such Registrable
Securities that was in effect at the time of receipt of such notice. If the
Company shall have withdrawn or prematurely terminated a registration statement
filed under Section 2.1 (a)(i) (whether pursuant to clause (iii) above or as a
result of any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or
any other governmental agency or court), the Company shall not be considered to
have effected an effective registration for the purposes of this Agreement until
the Company shall have filed a new registration statement covering the
Registrable Securities covered by the withdrawn registration statement and such
registration statement shall have been declared effective and shall not have
been withdrawn. If the Company shall give any notice of withdrawal or
postponement of a registration statement, the Company shall, at such time as the
Valid Business Reason that caused such withdrawal or postponement no longer
exists (but in no event later than four months after the date of the
postponement or withdrawal), use its best efforts to effect the registration
under the Securities Act of the Registrable Securities covered by the withdrawn
or postponed registration statement in accordance with this Section 2.1 (unless
the Initiating Holder shall have withdrawn such request, in which case the
Company shall not be considered to have effected an effective registration for
the purposes of this Agreement).
(c) The Company, subject to Sections 2.3 and 2.6, may elect to
include in any registration statement and offering made pursuant to Section 2.1
(a)(i), authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock or shares of Common Stock
held by the Company as treasury shares; provided, however, that such inclusion
shall be permitted only to the extent that it is pursuant to and subject to the
terms of the underwriting agreement or arrangements, if any, entered into by the
Initiating Holder.
(d) In connection with any Demand Registration, the
Initiating Holder participating in such registration shall have the right to
designate the lead managing
- 4 -
underwriter for such registration and each other managing underwriter for such
registration, provided that each such managing underwriter is reasonably
satisfactory to the Company.
2.2. Piggyback Registration.
(a) If, at any time, the Company proposes or is required to
register any of its equity securities (including pursuant to any registration
statement which generally registers equity and debt securities without
specifying the type of security or the amount) under the Securities Act (other
than pursuant to (i) registrations on such form or similar form(s) solely for
registration of securities in connection with an employee benefit plan or
dividend reinvestment plan or a merger or consolidation or (ii) a Demand
Registration under Section 2.1) on a registration statement on Form S-1, Form
S-2 or Form S-3 (or an equivalent general registration form then in effect),
whether or not for its own account, the Company shall give prompt written notice
of its intention to do so to each of the Holders of record of Registrable
Securities. Upon the written request of any Holder, made within 15 days
following the receipt of any such written notice (which request shall specify
the maximum number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such
Holder and the intended method of distribution thereof), the Company shall,
subject to Sections 2.2(b), 2.3 and 2.6 hereof, use its best efforts to cause
all such Registrable Securities, the Holders of which have so requested the
registration thereof, to be registered under the Securities Act (with the
securities which the Company at the time proposes to register) to permit the
sale or other disposition by the Holders (in accordance with the intended method
of distribution thereof) of the Registrable Securities to be so registered.
There is no limitation on the number of such piggyback registrations pursuant to
the preceding sentence which the Company is obligated to effect. No registration
effected under this Section 2.2(a) shall relieve the Company of its obligations
to effect Demand Registrations hereby.
(b) If, at any time after giving written notice of its
intention to register any equity securities and prior to the effective date of
the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the
Company shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay registration
of such equity securities, the Company may, at its election, give written notice
of such determination to all Holders of record of Registrable Securities who
have requested registration of the Registrable Securities pursuant to this
Section 2.2 and in the case of a determination not to register, shall be
relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection
with such abandoned registration, without prejudice, however, to the rights of
Holders under Section 2. 1.
(c) Any Holder shall have the right to withdraw its request
for inclusion of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement
pursuant to this Section 2.2 by giving written notice to the Company of its
request to withdraw; provided, however, that (i) such request must be made in
writing prior to the earlier of the execution of the underwriting agreement or
the execution of the custody agreement with respect to such registration and
(ii) such withdrawal shall be irrevocable and, after making such withdrawal, a
Holder shall no
- 5 -
longer have any right to include Registrable Securities in the registration as
to which such withdrawal was made.
2.3. Allocation of Securities Included in Registration Statement.
(a) If any requested registration pursuant to Section 2.1
involves an underwritten offering and the lead managing underwriter of such
offering (the "Manager") shall advise the Company that, in its view, the number
of securities requested to be included in such registration by the Holders or
any other Persons (including those shares of Common Stock requested by the
Company to be included in such registration) exceeds the largest number (the
"Section 2.1 Sale Number") that can be sold in an orderly manner in such
offering within a price range acceptable to the Initiating Holder, the Company
shall include in such registration:
(i) all Registrable Securities requested to be
included in such registration by Holders of Registrable Securities; provided,
however, that, if the number of such Registrable Securities exceeds the
Section 2.1 Sale Number, the number of such Registrable Securities (not to
exceed the Section 2.1 Sale Number) to be included in such registration shall
be allocated on a pro rata basis among all Holders requesting that
Registrable Securities be included in such registration, based on the number
of Registrable Securities then owned by each such Holder requesting
inclusion in relation to the number of Registrable Securities then owned by
all such Holders requesting inclusion; and
(ii) to the extent that the number of
Registrable Securities to be included by all Holders is less than the
Section 2.1 Sale Number, shares of Common Stock that the Company proposes to
register.
If, as a result of the proration provisions of this Section 2.3(a), any
Holder shall not be entitled to include all Registrable Securities in a
registration that such Holder has requested be included, such Holder may elect
to withdraw his request to include Registrable Securities in such registration
or may reduce the number requested to be included; provided, however, that (x)
such request must be made in writing prior to the earlier of the execution of
the underwriting agreement or the execution of the custody agreement with
respect to such registration and (y) such withdrawal shall be irrevocable and,
after making such withdrawal, a Holder shall no longer have any right to include
Registrable Securities in the registration as to which such withdrawal was made.
(b) If any registration pursuant to Section 2.2 involves an
underwritten offering and the Manager shall advise the Company that, in its
view, the number of securities requested to be included in such registration
exceeds the number (the "Section 2.2 Sale Number") that can be sold in an
orderly manner in such registration within a price range acceptable to the
Company, the Company shall include in such registration:
- 6 -
(i) all Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents that the Company proposes to register for its own account (the
"Company Securities"); and
(ii) to the extent that the number of Company
Securities is less than the Section 2.2 Sale Number, the remaining
shares to be included in such registration shall be allocated on a pro rata
basis among all Holders requesting that Registrable Securities be included
in such registration, based on the number of Registrable Securities owned by
each such Holder requesting inclusion in relation to the number of
Registrable Securities then owned by all such Holders requesting inclusion.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in all underwritten offerings subsequent
to the first underwritten offering made after the date hereof, no reduction
pursuant to this Section 2.3(b) shall reduce the amount of securities of the
Holders included in the registration below ten percent (10%) of the total amount
of securities included in such registration.
2.4. Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required
by the provisions of this Agreement to use its best efforts to effect or cause
the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act as
provided in this Agreement, the Company shall, as expeditiously as possible (but
in any event, within 120 days after a Demand Registration Request in the case of
Section 2.4(a)):
(a) prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on
an appropriate registration form of the SEC for the disposition of such
Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition
thereof, which form (i) shall be selected by the Company and (ii) shall, in the
case of a shelf registration, be available for the sale of the Registrable
Securities by the selling Holders thereof and such registration statement shall
comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the
applicable form and include all financial statements required by the SEC to be
filed therewith, and the Company shall use its best efforts to cause such
registration statement to become and remain effective (provided, however, that
before filing a registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or
supplements thereto, or comparable statements under securities or blue sky laws
of any jurisdiction, the Company will furnish to one counsel for the Holders
participating in the planned offering (selected by the Initiating Holder, in the
case of a registration pursuant to Section 2.1, and selected by the Holders of a
majority of the Registrable Securities included in such registration, in the
case of a registration pursuant to Section 2.2) and the underwriters, if any,
copies of all such documents proposed to be filed (including all exhibits
thereto), which documents will be subject to the reasonable review and
reasonable comment of such counsel, and the Company shall not file any
registration statement or amendment thereto or any prospectus or supplement
thereto to which the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities covered
by such registration statement or the underwriters, if any, shall reasonably
object in writing);
- 7 -
(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for
such period (which shall not be required to exceed 180 days in the case of a
registration pursuant to Section 2.1 or 120 days in the case of a registration
pursuant to Section 2.2, unless reasonably requested by any underwriter pursuant
to an underwritten offering) as any seller of Registrable Securities pursuant to
such registration statement shall request and to comply with the provisions of
the Securities Act with respect to the sale or other disposition of all
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement in accordance with
the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth
in such registration statement;
(c) furnish, without charge, to each seller of such
Registrable Securities and each underwriter, if any, of the securities covered
by such registration statement such number of copies of such registration
statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all
exhibits), and the prospectus included in such registration statement (including
each preliminary prospectus) in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act, and other documents, as such seller and underwriter may
reasonably request in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition
of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller (the Company hereby
consenting to the use in accordance with all applicable law of each such
registration statement (or amendment or posteffective amendment thereto) and
each such prospectus (or preliminary prospectus or supplement thereto) by each
such seller of Registrable Securities and the underwriters, if any, in
connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by
such registration statement or prospectus);
(d) use its best efforts to register or qualify the
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under such other
securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as any sellers of
Registrable Securities or any managing underwriter, if any, shall reasonably
request, and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably
necessary or advisable to enable such sellers or underwriter, if any, to
consummate the disposition of the Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions,
except that in no event shall the Company be required to qualify to do business
as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it would not, but for the
requirements of this paragraph (d), be required to be so qualified, to subject
itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or to consent to general service of
process in any such jurisdiction;
(e) promptly notify each Holder selling Registrable Securities
covered by such registration statement and each managing underwriter, if any:
(i) when the registration statement, any pre-effective amendment, the prospectus
or any prospectus supplement related thereto or post-effective amendment to the
registration statement has been filed and, with respect to the registration
statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective;
(ii) of any request by the SEC or state securities authority for amendments or
supplements to the registration statement or the prospectus related thereto or
for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order
suspending the effectiveness of
- 8 -
the registration statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that
purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to
the suspension of the qualification of any Registrable Securities for sale under
the securities or blue sky laws of any jurisdiction or the initiation of any
proceeding for such purpose; (v) of the existence of any fact of which the
Company becomes aware which results in the registration statement, the
prospectus related thereto or any document incorporated therein by reference
containing an untrue statement of a material fact or omitting to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make any statement
therein not misleading; and (vi) if at any time the representations and
warranties contemplated by any underwriting agreement, securities sale
agreement, or other similar agreement relating to the offering shall cease to be
true and correct in all material respects; and, if the notification relates to
an event described in clause (v), the Company shall promptly prepare and furnish
to each such seller and each underwriter, if any, a reasonable number of copies
of a prospectus supplemented or amended so that, as thereafter delivered to the
purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not include an
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein in the light of
the circumstances under which they were made not misleading;
(f) comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the
SEC, and make generally available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably
practicable after the effective date of the registration statement (and in any
event within 16 months thereafter), an earnings statement (which need not be
audited) covering the period of at least twelve consecutive months beginning
with the first day of the Company's first calendar quarter after the effective
date of the registration statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the
provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder;
(g) (i) cause all such Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement to be listed on the principal securities exchange on
which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed (if any), if the

all such Registrable Securities to be listed on a national securities exchange
or to secure designation of all such Registrable Securities as a National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD") Automated Quotation System
("NASDAQ") "national market system security" within the meaning of Rule 11Aa2-1
of the Exchange Act or, failing that, secure NASDAQ authorization for such
shares and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, take all actions
that may be required by the Company as the issuer of such Registrable Securities
in order to facilitate the managing underwriter's arranging for the registration
of at least two market makers as such with respect to such shares with the NASD;
(h) provide and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and
registrar for all such Registrable Securities covered by such registration
statement not later than the effective date of such registration statement;

(i) enter into such customary agreements (including, if
applicable, an underwriting agreement) and take such other actions as the
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities participating in such
offering shall reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the
disposition of such Registrable Securities. The Holders of the Registrable
Securities which are to be distributed by such underwriters shall be parties to
such underwriting agreement and may, at their option, require that the Company
make to and for the benefit of such Holders the representations, warranties and
covenants of the Company which are being made to and for the benefit of such
underwriters and which are of the type customarily provided to institutional
investors in secondary offerings;
(j) obtain an opinion from the Company's counsel and a "cold
comfort" letter from the Company's independent public accountants in customary
form and covering such matters as are customarily covered by such opinions and
"cold comfort" letters delivered to underwriters in underwritten public
offerings, which opinion and letter shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
underwriter, if any, and to the Holders of a majority of the Registrable
Securities participating in such offering, and furnish to each Holder
participating in the offering and to each underwriter, if any, a copy of such
opinion and letter addressed to such Holder or underwriter;
(k) deliver promptly to each Holder participating in the
offering and each underwriter, if any, copies of all correspondence between the
SEC and the Company, its counsel or auditors and all memoranda relating to
discussions with the SEC or its staff with respect to the registration
statement, other than those portions of any such memoranda which contain
information subject to attorney-client privilege with respect to the Company,
and, upon receipt of such confidentiality agreements as the Company may
reasonably request, make reasonably available for inspection by any seller of
such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, by any
underwriter, if any, participating in any disposition to be effected pursuant to
such registration statement and by any attorney, accountant or other agent
retained by any such seller or any such underwriter, all pertinent financial and
other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and
cause all of the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all
information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney,
accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement;
(l) use its best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of an
order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement;
(m) provide a CUSIP number for all Registrable
Securities, not later than the effective date of the registration statement;
(n) make reasonably available to its employees and
personnel and otherwise provide reasonable assistance to the underwriters
(taking into account the needs of the
- 10 -
Company's businesses and the requirements of the marketing process) in the
marketing of Registrable Securities in any underwritten offering;
(o) promptly prior to the filing of any document which is to
be incorporated by reference into the registration statement or the prospectus
(after the initial filing of such registration statement) provide copies of such
document to counsel for the selling holders of Registrable Securities and to
each managing underwriter, if any, and make the Company's representatives
reasonably available for discussion of such document and make such changes in
such document concerning the selling holders prior to the filing thereof as
counsel for such selling holders or underwriters may reasonably request;
(p) furnish to each Holder participating in the offering and
the managing underwriter, without charge, at least one signed copy of the
registration statement and any post-effective amendments thereto, including
financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by
reference and all exhibits (including those incorporated by reference);
(q) cooperate with the selling Holders of Registrable
Securities and the managing underwriter, if any, to facilitate the timely
preparation and delivery of certificates not bearing any restrictive legends
representing the Registrable Securities to be sold, and cause such Registrable
Securities to be issued in such denominations and registered in such names in
accordance with the underwriting agreement prior to any sale of Registrable
Securities to the underwriters or, if not an underwritten offering, in
accordance with the instructions of the selling Holders of Registrable
Securities at least three business days prior to any sale of Registrable
Securities and instruct any transfer agent and registrar of Registrable
Securities to release any stop transfer orders in respect thereto; and
(r) take all such other commercially reasonable actions as are
necessary or advisable in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of
such Registrable Securities.
The Company may require as a condition precedent to the Company's
obligations under this Section 2.4 that each seller of Registrable Securities as
to which any registration is being effected furnish the Company such information
regarding such seller and the distribution of such securities as the Company may
from time to time reasonably request provided that such information shall be
used only in connection with such registration.
Each Holder of Registrable Securities agrees that upon receipt of any
notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in
clause (v) of paragraph (e) of this Section 2.4, such Holder will discontinue
such Holder's disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration
statement covering such Registrable Securities until such Holder's receipt of
the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by paragraph
(e) of this Section 2.4 and, if so directed by the Company, will deliver to the
Company (at the Company's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies,
then in such Holder's possession of the prospectus covering such Registrable
Securities that was in effect at
- 11 -
the time of receipt of such notice. In the event the Company shall give any such
notice, the applicable period mentioned in paragraph (b) of this Section 2.4
shall be extended by the number of days during such period from and including
the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when each seller
of any Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement shall have
received the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by
paragraph (e) of this Section 2.4.
If any such registration statement or comparable statement under "blue
sky" laws refers to any Holder by name or otherwise as the Holder of any
securities of the Company, then such Holder shall have the right to require (i)
the insertion therein of language, in form and substance satisfactory to such
Holder and the Company, to the effect that the holding by such Holder of such
securities is not to be construed as a recommendation by such Holder of the
investment quality of the Company's securities covered thereby and that such
holding does not imply that such Holder will assist in meeting any future
financial requirements of the Company or (ii) in the event that such reference
to such Holder by name or otherwise is not in the judgment of the Company, as
advised by counsel, required by the Securities Act or any similar federal
statute or any state "blue sky" or securities law then in force, the deletion of
the reference to such Holder.
2.5. Registration Expenses.
(a) "Expenses" shall mean any and all fees and expenses
incident to the Company's performance of or compliance with this Article 2,
including, without limitation: (i) SEC, stock exchange or NASD registration and
filing fees and all listing fees and fees with respect to the inclusion of
securities in NASDAQ, (ii) fees and expenses of compliance with state securities
or "blue sky" laws and in connection with the preparation of a "blue sky"
survey, including without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of blue sky
counsel, (iii) printing and copying expenses, (iv) messenger and delivery
expenses, (v) expenses incurred in connection with any road show, (vi) fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Company, (vii) with respect to each
registration, the fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling
Holder(s) (selected by the Initiating Holder, in the case of a registration
pursuant to Section 2.1, and selected by the Holders of a majority of the
Registrable Securities included in such registration, in the case of a
registration pursuant to Section 2.2), (viii) fees and disbursements of all
independent public accountants (including the expenses of any audit and/or "cold
comfort" letter) and fees and expenses of other Persons, including special
experts, retained by the Company, (ix) fees and expenses payable to a Qualified
Independent Underwriter (as such term is defined in Conduct Rule 2720 of the
NASD's By-Laws) and (x) any other fees and disbursements of underwriters, if
any, customarily paid by issuers or sellers of securities.
(b) The Company shall pay all Expenses with respect to any
Demand Registration whether or not such Demand Registration becomes effective or
does not remain effective for the period contemplated by Section 2.4(b) and with
respect to any registration effected under Section 2.2.
- 12 -
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) the provisions of this
Section 2.5 shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to cause these
expense provisions to comply with "blue sky" laws of each state in which the
offering is made and (y) in connection with any registration hereunder, each
Holder of Registrable Securities being registered shall pay all underwriting
discounts and commissions and any transfer taxes, if any, attributable to the
sale of such Registrable Securities, pro rata with respect to payments of
discounts and commissions in accordance with the number of shares sold in the
offering by such Holder and (z) the Company shall, in the case of all
registrations under this Article 2, be responsible for all its internal expenses
(including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and
employees performing legal or accounting duties).
2.6. Certain Limitations on Registration Rights. In the case of any
registration under Section 2.1 pursuant to an underwritten offering, or in the
case of a registration under Section 2.2 if the Company has determined to enter
into an underwriting agreement in connection therewith, all securities to be
included in such registration shall be subject to an underwriting agreement and
no Person may participate in such registration unless such Person agrees to sell
such Person's securities on the basis provided therein and completes and
executes all reasonable questionnaires, and other documents (other than powers
of attorney) which must be executed in connection therewith, and provides such
other information to the Company or the underwriter as may be necessary to
register such Person's securities.
2.7 Limitations on Sale or Distribution of Other Securities.
(a) To the extent requested in writing by a managing
underwriter, if any, of any registration effected pursuant to Section 2.1, each
Holder of Registrable Securities agrees not to sell, transfer or otherwise
dispose of, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act,
any Common Stock, or any other equity security of the Company or any security
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security of the
Company (other than as part of such underwritten public offering) during the
time period (following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement)
reasonably requested by the managing underwriter, not to exceed 180 days (and
the Company hereby also so agrees (except that the Company may effect any sale
or distribution of any such securities pursuant to a registration on Form S-4
(if reasonably acceptable to such managing underwriter) or Form S- 8, or any
successor or similar form which is then in effect or upon the conversion,
exchange or exercise of any then outstanding Common Stock Equivalent) to use its
reasonable best efforts to cause each holder of any equity security or any
security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security
of the Company purchased from the Company at any time other than in a public
offering so to agree).
(b) The Company hereby agrees that, if it shall previously
have received a request for registration pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2, and if
such previous registration shall not have been withdrawn or abandoned, the
Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Holders of a
majority of the Registrable Shares, sell, transfer, or otherwise
- 13 -
dispose of, any Common Stock, or any other equity security of the Company or any
security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security
of the Company (other than as part of such underwritten public offering, a
registration on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any successor or similar form which is
then in effect or upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of any then
outstanding Common Stock Equivalent), until a period of 180 days shall have
elapsed from the effective date of such previous registration; and the Company
shall so provide in any registration rights agreements hereafter entered into
with respect to any of its securities.
2.8. No Required Sale. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed
to create an independent obligation on the part of any Holder to sell any
Registrable Securities pursuant to any effective registration statement.
2.9. Indemnification.
(a) In the event of any registration of any securities of the
Company under the Securities Act pursuant to this Article 2, the Company will,
and hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its directors, officers,
fiduciaries, employees and stockholders or general and limited partners (and the
directors, officers, employees and stockholders thereof), each other Person who
participates as an underwriter or a Qualified Independent Underwriter, if any,
in the offering or sale of such securities, each officer, director, employee,
stockholder or partner of such underwriter or Qualified Independent Underwriter,
and each other Person, if any, who controls such seller or any such underwriter
within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any and all losses, claims,
damages or liabilities, joint or several, actions or proceedings (whether
commenced or threatened) in respect thereof ("Claims") and expenses (including
reasonable fees of counsel and any amounts paid in any settlement effected with
the Company's consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed) to which each such indemnified party may become subject under the
Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claims or expenses arise out of or
are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in any registration statement under which such
securities were registered under the Securities Act or the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
preliminary, final or summary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto,
together with the documents incorporated by reference therein, or the omission
or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (iii) any
violation by the Company of any federal, state or common law rule or regulation
applicable to the Company and relating to action required of or inaction by the
Company in connection with any such registration, and the Company will reimburse
any such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such
Claim as such
- 14 -
expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable
to any such indemnified party in any such case to the extent such Claim or
expense arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact
made in such registration statement or amendment thereof or supplement thereto
or in any such prospectus or any preliminary, final or summary prospectus in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company by or on behalf of such indemnified party specifically for use therein.
Such indemnity and reimbursement of expenses shall remain in full force and
effect regardless of any investigation made by as on behalf of such indemnified
party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Holder.
(b) Each Holder of Registrable Securities that are included in
the securities as to which any registration under Section 2.1 or 2.2 is being
effected (and, if the Company requires as a condition to including any
Registrable Securities in any registration statement filed in accordance with
Section 2.1 or 2.2, any underwriter and Qualified Independent Underwriter, if
any) shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless (in the same
manner and to the same extent as set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.9)
to the fullest extent permitted by law the Company, its officers and directors,
each Person controlling the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act and
all other prospective sellers and their directors, officers, general and limited
partners and respective controlling Persons with respect to any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of any material fact in, or omission or alleged
omission of any material fact from, such registration statement, any
preliminary, final or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, if such statement or alleged statement or omission or
alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company or its representatives by or on behalf of
such Holder or underwriter or Qualified Independent Underwriter, if any,
specifically for use therein and reimburse such indemnified party for any legal
or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or
defending any such Claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that
the aggregate amount which any such Holder shall be required to pay pursuant to
this Section 2.9(b) and Sections 2.9(c) and (e) shall in no case be greater than
the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the
Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement giving rise to
such claim. Such indemnity and reimbursement of expenses shall remain in full
force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such
indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such
Holder.
(c) Indemnification similar to that specified in the preceding
paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2.9 (with appropriate modifications)
shall be given by the Company and each seller of Registrable Securities with
respect to any required registration or other qualification of securities under
any state securities and "blue sky" laws.
(d) Any Person entitled to indemnification under this
Agreement shall notify promptly the indemnifying party in writing of the
commencement of any action or proceeding
- 15 -
with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be made pursuant to this
Section 2.9, but the failure of any indemnified party to provide such notice
shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under the preceding
paragraphs of this Section 2.9, except to the extent the indemnifying party is
materially prejudiced thereby and shall not relieve the indemnifying party from
any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under
this Article 2. In case any action or proceeding is brought against an
indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and,
unless in the reasonable opinion of outside counsel to the indemnified party a
conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist
in respect of such claim, to assume the defense thereof jointly with any other
indemnifying party similarly notified, to the extent that it chooses, with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from
the indemnifying party to such indemnified party that it so chooses, the
indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal
or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection
with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided,
however, that (i) if the indemnifying party fails to take reasonable steps
necessary to defend diligently the action or proceeding within 20 days after
receiving notice from such indemnified party; or (ii) if such indemnified party
who is a defendant in any action or proceeding which is also brought against the
indemnifying party reasonably shall have concluded that there may be one or more
legal defenses available to such indemnified party which are not available to
the indemnifying party; or (iii) if representation of both parties by the same
counsel is otherwise inappropriate under applicable standards of professional
conduct, then, in any such case, the indemnified party shall have the right to
assume or continue its own defense as set forth above (but with no more than one
firm of counsel for all indemnified parties in each jurisdiction, except to the
extent any indemnified party or parties reasonably shall have concluded that
there may be legal defenses available to such party or parties which are not
available to the other indemnified parties or to the extent representation of
all indemnified parties by the same counsel is otherwise inappropriate under
applicable standards of professional conduct) and the indemnifying party shall
be liable for any expenses therefor. No indemnifying party shall, without the
written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise
of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or
threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution
may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or
potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or
judgment (A) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all
liability arising out of such action or claim and (B) does not include a
statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or
on behalf of any indemnified party.
(e) If for any reason the foregoing indemnity is unavailable
or is insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Sections 2.9(a),
(b) or (c), then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such indemnified party as a result of any Claim in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the
one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, with respect to such
- 16 -
offering of securities. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the indemnifying party or the indemnified party and the
parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. If, however, the
allocation provided in the second preceding sentence is not permitted by
applicable law, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid
or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect not only such relative faults but also the relative benefits of the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 2.9(e) were to be determined
by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take
account of the equitable considerations referred to in the preceding sentences
of this Section 2.9(e). The amount paid or payable in respect of any Claim shall
be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim.
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. Notwithstanding
anything in this Section 2.9(e) to the contrary, no indemnifying party (other
than the Company) shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.9(e) to
contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds received by such
indemnifying party from the sale of Registrable Securities in the offering to
which the Claims of the indemnified parties relate, less the amount of any
indemnification payment made by such indemnifying party pursuant to Sections
2.9(b) and (c).
(f) The indemnification and contribution agreements contained
herein shall be in addition to any other rights to indemnification or
contribution which any indemnified party may have pursuant to law or contract
and shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any
investigation made or omitted by or on behalf of any indemnified party and shall
survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by any such party.
(g) The indemnification and contribution required by this
Section 2.9 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the
course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or
expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred.
3. Underwritten Offerings.
3.1. Requested Underwritten Offerings. If requested by the
underwriters for any underwritten offering by the Holders pursuant to a Demand
Registration under Section 2.1, the Company shall enter into a customary
underwriting agreement with the underwriters. Such underwriting agreement
shall be satisfactory in form and substance to the Initiating Holder and
shall contain such representations and warranties by, and such other agreements
on the part of, the Company and such other terms as are generally prevailing
in agreements of that type, including, without limitation, indemnities and
contribution agreements. Any Holder
- 17 -
participating in the offering shall be a party to such underwriting agreement
and may, at its option, require that any or all of the representations and
warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for
the benefit of such underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of
such Holder and that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations
of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement be conditions precedent
to the obligations of such Holder; provided, however, that the Company shall not
be required to make any representations or warranties with respect to written
information specifically provided by a selling Holder for inclusion in the
registration statement. Such underwriting agreement shall also contain such
representations and warranties by the participating Holders as are customary in
agreements of that type.
3.2. Piggyback Underwritten Offerings. In the case of a registration
pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof, if the Company shall have determined to enter
into an underwriting agreement in connection therewith, all of the Holders'
Registrable Securities to be included in such registration shall be subject to
such underwriting agreement. Any Holder participating in such registration may,
at its option, require that any or all of the representations and warranties by,
and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of
such underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of such Holder and
that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such
underwriters under such underwriting agreement be conditions precedent to the
obligations of such Holder. Such underwriting agreement shall also contain such
representations and warranties by the participating Holders as are customary in
agreements of that type.
4. General.
4.1. Adjustments Affecting Registrable Securities. The Company agrees
that it shall not effect or permit to occur any combination or subdivision of
shares which would adversely affect the ability of the Holder of any Registrable
Securities to include such Registrable Securities in any registration
contemplated by this Agreement or the marketability of such Registrable
Securities in any such registration. The Company agrees that it will take all
reasonable steps necessary to effect a subdivision of shares if in the
reasonable judgment of (a) the Initiating Holder of a Demand Registration
Request or (b) the managing underwriter for the offering in respect of such
Demand Registration Request, such subdivision would enhance the marketability of
the Registrable Securities. Each Holder agrees to vote all of its shares of
capital stock in a manner, and to take all other actions necessary, to permit
the Company to carry out the intent of the preceding sentence including, without
limitation, voting in favor of an amendment to the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation in order to increase the number of authorized shares of capital
stock of the Company.
4.2. Rule 144. The Company covenants that (i) so long as it remains
subject to the reporting provisions of the Exchange Act, it will timely file the
reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act
(including, but not limited to, the reports under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the
Exchange Act referred to in subparagraph (c)(1) of Rule
- 18 -
144 under the Securities Act), and (ii) will take such further action as any
Holder of Registrable Securities 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 (A) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rule may
be amended from time to time, or (B) any similar rule or regulation hereafter
adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of any Holder of Registrable Securities,
the Company will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has
complied with such requirements.
4.3. Nominees for Beneficial Owners. If Registrable Securities are held
by a nominee for the beneficial owner thereof, the beneficial owner thereof may,
at its option, be treated as the Holder of such Registrable Securities for
purposes of any request or other action by any Holder or Holders of Registrable
Securities pursuant to this Agreement (or any determination of any number or
percentage of shares constituting Registrable Securities held by any Holder or
Holders of Registrable Securities contemplated by this Agreement), provided that
the Company shall have received assurances reasonably satisfactory to it of such
beneficial ownership.
4.4. Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may be amended,
modified, supplemented or waived only upon the written agreement of the party
against whom enforcement of such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver
is sought.
4.5. Notices. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all
notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder to any party
shall be deemed to be sufficient if contained in a written instrument delivered
in person or by telecopy, nationally recognized overnight courier or first class

4.6. Transfer or Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause
the Company to register securities granted to a Holder by the Company under this
Agreement may be transferred or assigned by a Holder only to a transferee or
assignee of not less than 50,000 shares of Registrable Securities (as presently
constituted and subject to subsequent adjustments for stock splits, stock
dividends, reverse stock splits and the like); provided, however, that, a Holder
may transfer such rights to affiliates or associates of such Holder without the
foregoing share restriction.
4.7. Miscellaneous.
(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and the respective
successors, personal representatives and assigns of the parties hereto, whether
so expressed or not. If any Person shall acquire Registrable Securities from any
Holder, in any manner, whether by operation of law or otherwise, such transferee
shall promptly notify the Company and such Registrable Securities acquired from
such Holder shall be held subject to all of the terms of this Agreement, and by
taking and holding such Registrable Securities such Person shall be entitled to
receive the benefits of and be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by
and to perform all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement. If the Company
shall so request, any such successor or assign shall agree in writing to acquire
and hold the Registrable Securities acquired from such Holder subject to all of
the terms hereof. If any Holder shall acquire
- 20 -
additional Registrable Securities, such Registrable Securities shall be subject
to all of the terms, and entitled to all the benefits, of this Agreement.
(b) This Agreement (with the documents referred to herein or
delivered pursuant hereto) embodies the entire agreement and understanding
between the parties hereto and supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.
(c) This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in
accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York without giving
effect to the conflicts of law principles thereof.
(d) The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof. All
section references are to this Agreement unless otherwise expressly provided.
(e) This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together
shall constitute one instrument.
(f) Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid
or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without
rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this
Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or
provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.
(g) The parties hereto acknowledge that there would be no
adequate remedy at law if any party fails to perform any of its obligations
hereunder, and accordingly agree that each party, in addition to any other
remedy to which it may be entitled at law or in equity, shall be entitled to
injunctive relief, including specific performance, to enforce such obligations
without the posting of any bond, and, if any action should be brought in equity
to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, none of the parties hereto
shall raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.
(h) Each party hereto shall do and perform or cause to be done
and performed all such further acts and things and shall execute and deliver all
such other agreements, certificates, instruments, and documents as any other
party hereto reasonably may request in order to carry out the intent and
accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby.
4.8. No Inconsistent Agreements. The rights granted to the holders of
Registrable Securities hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not
inconsistent with any other agreements to which the Company is a party or by
which it is bound. Without the prior written consent of PPE, the Company will
not, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with
respect to its securities which is inconsistent with the rights granted in
- 21 -
this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof, other than any
lock-up agreement with the underwriters in connection with any registered
offering effected hereunder, pursuant to which the Company shall agree not to
register for sale, and the Company shall agree not to sell or otherwise dispose
of, Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or
exchangeable for Common Stock, for a specified period following the registered
offering. The Company further agrees that if any other registration rights
agreement entered into after the date of this Agreement with respect to any of
its securities contains terms which are more favorable to, or less restrictive
on, the other party thereto than the terms and conditions in this Agreement are
(insofar as they are applicable) to the Purchasing Parties, then the terms and
conditions of this Agreement shall immediately be deemed to have been amended
without further action by the Company or any of the Holders of Registrable
Securities so that the Purchasing Parties shall be entitled to the benefit of
any such more favorable or less restrictive terms or conditions.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Agreement as of
the date set forth above.

NETEGRITY, INC.
We, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇'▇▇▇▇▇▇, Jr., the President and
Assistant Secretary of NeTegrity, Inc., a corporation organized and existing
under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "Corporation"), do hereby certify
that, pursuant to the authority confirmed upon the Board of Directors by the
Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended and restated, the
Board of Directors on December 23, 1997, adopted the following resolution
creating a series of 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock designated as Series D
Convertible Preferred Stock:
RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority vested in the Board of
Directors of the Corporation in accordance with the provisions of the
Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended and restated, a series of
Preferred Stock of the Corporation be and it hereby is created, and that the
designation and amount thereof and the voting powers, preferences and relative,
participating, optional and other special rights of the shares of such series,
and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof are as follows:
1. Designation and Number. (a) There is hereby designated a series of
Preferred Stock to be known as "Series D Preferred Stock." The number of shares
constituting the Series D Preferred Stock shall be 5,000,000, which number may
not be increased without a vote of the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock.
(b) The Series D Preferred Stock shall, except as provided in
Section 9 hereof, with respect to dividend rights and rights on liquidation,
dissolution or winding up, (i) rank senior to the Common Stock, par value $.01
per share, of the Corporation (the "Common Stock") and (ii) rank senior to other
series of convertible preferred stock of the Corporation designated by the Board
of Directors of the Corporation prior to, on or after the date hereof.
2. Dividends. (a) The holders of the shares of Series D
Preferred Stock, in preference to the holders of Common Stock and of any shares
of other capital stock of the Corporation ranking junior to the Series D
Preferred Stock as to payment of dividends, shall be entitled to receive, when,
as and if declared by the Board of Directors, cumulative
- 1 -
dividends ("Stock Dividends") in the form of Common Stock ("Dividend Shares") at
an annual rate 7.5% from and after the Issue Date (as defined in Section
6(c)(ii)) as long as the shares of Series D Preferred Stock remain outstanding.
Dividends shall be computed on the basis of the Preferred Amount Per Share (as
defined in Section 11), and shall accrue quarterly, on March 31, June 30,
September 30 and December 31 in each year or, if not a Business Day (as defined
in Section 11), on the next Business Day (each such date being referred to
herein as a "Quarterly Dividend Accrual Date"), commencing on the first
Quarterly Dividend Accrual Date following the Issue Date.
(b) The Corporation shall deliver to each holder its
cumulative Stock Dividends immediately before the date of a Liquidation or
immediately before the Redemption. No fractional Dividend Shares shall be
issued; the Corporation shall, in lieu thereof, either issue a number of
Dividend Shares which reflects a rounding up to the next whole number of shares
or pay such amount in cash. Dividend Shares shall be fully paid and
nonassessable, free and clear of all Encumbrances (as defined in Section 11)
imposed by or through the Corporation.
(c) No dividend or distribution in cash, shares of stock or
other property on the capital stock of the Corporation (other than the Dividend
Shares) shall be declared or paid or set apart for payment.
3. Voting Rights. (a) In addition to any voting rights provided by law
and the special voting rights provided in Section 3(c) and Section 9 below, the
holder of each share of Series D Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote upon
all matters upon which holders of the Common Stock have the right to vote, and
the shares of Series D Preferred Stock held by each such holder shall be
entitled to the number of votes equal to the largest number of full shares of
Common Stock into which such shares of Series D Preferred Stock could be
converted pursuant to the provisions of Section 6 of this Certificate of
Designation at the record date for the determination of the shareholders
entitled to vote on such matters or, if no such record date is established, at
the date such vote is taken or any written consent of shareholders is solicited.
Except as required by law or as otherwise set forth in this Certificate of
Designation, the holders of shares of Series D Preferred Stock and Common Stock
shall vote together as a single class and not as separate classes.
(b) The Board of Directors of the Corporation shall consist of
a maximum of 13 members. Except with respect to the special voting rights set
forth in clause (c) below, the number of directors at any such time constituting
the Board of Directors may not exceed the number which is 7 less than the
maximum number of directors specified in the previous sentence.
(c) So long as any shares of Series D Preferred Stock remain
outstanding, the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock shall have, in addition
to the other voting rights set forth herein, the exclusive right, voting
separately as a single class, (i) prior to the occurrence
- 2 -
of either an Event of Default or a Performance Default (each as defined in
Section 11), to elect one director of the Corporation, with the remaining
directors to be elected by the other classes of stock entitled to vote therefore
at each meeting of shareholders held for the purpose of electing directors (the
"Series D Preferred Director") and, (ii) after an occurrence of either an Event
of Default (as defined in Article 11) or Performance Default (as defined in
Article 11), to elect the smallest number of directors (which number shall
include the Series D Preferred Director) that shall constitute a majority of the
maximum number of directors of the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the
"Default Series D Preferred Directors"), with the remaining directors to be
elected by the other classes of stock entitled to vote therefore at each meeting
of shareholders held for the purpose of electing directors. The right of the
holders of Series D Preferred Stock to vote for the election of directors may be
exercised at any annual meeting or at any special meeting called for such
purpose or at any adjournment thereof, or by the written consent, delivered to
the Secretary of the Corporation, of the holders of a majority of all shares of
Series D Preferred Stock outstanding as of the record date of such written
consent.
(d) (i) With respect to the Series D Preferred Director,
immediately after the date of the Issue Date, and (ii) with respect to the
Default Series D Preferred Directors, immediately after such Event of Default or
Performance Default has occurred, the Board of Directors of the Corporation
shall call for a special meeting or written consent of the holders of shares of
Series D Preferred Stock to elect the Series D Preferred Director or Default
Series D Preferred Directors, as the case may be. Each director, and any
subsequent director elected pursuant to this paragraph, shall serve as a
director until his successor is elected and qualified. In the event of a vacancy
in respect of any directorship elected by the holders of shares of Series D
Preferred Stock pursuant to this clause (d), the Corporation agrees to call a
special meeting of the holders of shares of Series D Preferred Stock at the
request of the majority of the holders of outstanding Series D Preferred Stock,
in order that the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock may elect a successor
director, and at which meeting the holders of Series D Preferred Stock shall be
entitled to the same voting rights as provided in the first sentence of the
prior paragraph.
(e) The voting rights with respect to the Default Series D
Preferred Directors will terminate when the Event of Default is cured, provided
that an Event of Default triggered the election of the Default Series D
Preferred Directors. The holders of the Series D Preferred Stock will continue
to be entitled to vote for the Series D Preferred Director after an Event of
Default has been cured.
4. No Reissuance of Shares. Shares of Series D Preferred Stock
converted, purchased, or otherwise acquired by the Corporation in any manner
whatsoever shall be retired and canceled promptly after the conversion, purchase
or acquisition thereof. None of such shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall be
reissued by the Corporation.
5. Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up. (a) In the event of
any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, distribution of assets (other than
the payment of dividends),
- 3 -
dissolution or winding up of the Corporation (each, a "Liquidation"), the
holders of the shares of the Series D Preferred Stock shall be entitled to
receive and to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for
distribution to its stockholders, before any payment or distribution shall be
made on any Junior Stock (as defined in Section 11), the Preferred Amount Per
Share, plus all cumulative and unpaid Stock Dividends, with respect to each
outstanding share of Series D Preferred Stock. If, upon any such Liquidation,
whether voluntary or involuntary, the assets to be distributed to the holders of
the Series D Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit payment of the full
amount of the Preferred Amount Per Share with respect to each share of Series D
Preferred Stock, then the entire assets of the Corporation to be distributed
among the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock shall be distributed ratably
among such holders.
(b) Upon the completion of the distribution required by
Section 5(a), the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution
to shareholders shall be distributed among the holders of the Series D Preferred
Stock and the Common Stock pro rata based on the number of shares of Common
Stock held by each (assuming conversion of all such Series D Preferred Stock at
the then effective Conversion Price (as defined in Section 11)); provided,
however, that the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock shall not receive (i)
an amount greater than 150% multiplied by the Preferred Amount Per Share
(including amounts paid pursuant to Section 2(a)) where such Liquidation occurs
on or before six months after the Issue Date, (ii) an amount greater then 200%
multiplied by the Preferred Amount Per Share (including amounts paid pursuant to
Section 2(a)) where such Liquidation occurs on or before twelve months after,
but more than six months after, the Issue Date, (iii) an amount greater than
250% multiplied by the Preferred Amount Per Share (including amounts paid
pursuant to Section 2(a)) where such Liquidation occurs on or before 18 months
after, but more than twelve months after, the Issue Date, and (iv) an amount
greater than 300% multiplied by the Preferred Amount Per Share (including
amounts paid pursuant to Section 2(a)) where such Liquidation occurs after 18
months after the Issue Date; thereafter, if assets remain in this Corporation,
the holders of the Common Stock shall receive all of the remaining assets of
this Corporation pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by
each.
(c) After the payment to the holders of shares of the Series D
Preferred Stock of the full amount of any liquidating distribution to which they
are entitled under this Section 5, the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock
as such shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the
Corporation.
(d) At the option of the holders of a majority of the Shares
of Series D Preferred Stock, the consolidation, merger or other business
combination of the Corporation with or into any other Person (as defined in
Section 11) or Persons or the sale of all or substantially all the assets of the
Corporation shall be deemed to be a Liquidation for purposes of this Certificate
of Designation and shareholders of the Corporation will be entitled to receive
in cash and securities the amount they would have upon liquidation.
- 4 -
(e) In any of such events, if the consideration received by
this Corporation is other than cash, its value will be deemed its fair market
value. Any securities shall be valued as follows:
(i) Securities not subject to investment letter
or other similar restrictions on free marketability:
(A) If traded on a securities exchange
or through NASDAQ, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the
closing prices of the securities on such exchange or market over the 30-day
period ending three (3) days prior to the closing;
(B) If actively traded over-the-counter,
the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid or sale
prices (whichever is applicable) over the 30-day period ending three (3)
days prior to the closing;
and
(C) If there is no active public market,
the value shall be the fair market value thereof, as determined by the Board of
Directors in good faith.
(ii) The method of valuation of securities
subject to investment letter or other restrictions on free marketability
(other than restrictions arising solely by virtue of a shareholder's status
as an affiliate or former affiliate) shall be to make an appropriate discount
from the market value determined as above in subsection 5(e)(i)(A), (B) or
(C) to reflect the approximate fair market value thereof, as determined by
the Board of Directors in good faith.
6. Conversion. (a) Each share of Series D Preferred Stock shall
automatically be converted into a number of shares of Common Stock, equal to the
quotient of the Preferred Amount Per Share divided by the Conversion Price (such
quotient being referred to herein as the "Conversion Ratio"), (i) on the date of
and upon the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant
to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act (as defined in
Section 11) covering the offering and sale of the Corporation's Common Stock for
the account of the Corporation in which the aggregate gross proceeds received by
the Corporation equal or exceed $15,000,000 and the price per share of which
exceeds $3.00 per share (as adjusted for any stock dividends, stock splits,
subdivisions, reclassifications or combinations occurring after the Issue Date),
(ii) at the close of business on the Trading Day which is the tenth Trading Day
in a period of 25 consecutive Trading Days at any time during the second quarter
ending June 30, 1999, in which the closing bid price for the Common Stock on
NASDAQ (or any exchange on which the Common Stock is then being traded) shall
have exceeded $4.50 per share (as adjusted for any stock dividends, stock
splits, subdivisions, reclassifications or combinations occurring after the
Issue Date) or (iii) on the date on which two-thirds (2/3) of the shares of
Series D Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately following the
Initial Closing (or if there shall occur a Subsequent Closing, the Subsequent
Closing), shall no longer be issued and outstanding, whether converted at the
option of the holder thereof, redeemed pursuant hereto or otherwise (each of the
events described in (i), (ii)
- 5 -
and (iii) are referred to herein as an "Automatic Conversion Event"). In
addition, at the option of the holder of any shares of Series D Preferred Stock,
such holder shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, by written
notice to the Corporation, to convert any share of Series D Preferred Stock
owned by such holder into a number of shares of Common Stock, at the then
effective Conversion Ratio.
(b) The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep
available for issuance upon the conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock and
payment of Stock Dividends on Series D Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 3(b),
free from any preemptive rights, such number of its authorized but unissued
shares of Common Stock as will from time to time be necessary to permit the
conversion of all outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock into shares of
Common Stock and the payment of Stock Dividends on Series D Preferred Stock, and
shall take all action required to increase the authorized number of shares of
Common Stock if necessary to permit the conversion of all outstanding shares of
Series D Preferred Stock and the payment of Stock Dividends.
(c) The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment
from time to time as follows:
(i) In case the Corporation shall at any time or
from time to time after the date hereof (A) pay any dividend, or make any
distribution, on the outstanding shares of Common Stock in shares of Common
Stock, (B) subdivide the outstanding shares of Common Stock, (C) combine the
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (D)
issue by reclassification of the shares of Common Stock any shares of capital
stock of the Corporation, then, and in each such case, the Conversion Price
in effect on the record date therefor, if applicable, or the effective date'
thereof, whichever is earlier, shall be adjusted so that the holder of any
shares of Series D Preferred Stock thereafter convertible into Common Stock
pursuant to this Certificate of Designation shall be entitled to receive
the number and type of shares of Common Stock or other
securities of the Corporation which such holder would have owned or have been
entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above,
had such shares of Series D Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock
immediately prior to the happening of such event or the record date therefor, as
applicable. An adjustment made pursuant to this clause (i) shall become
effective (x) in the case of any such dividend or distribution, immediately
after the close of business on the record date for the determination of holders
of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, or
(y) in the case of such subdivision, reclassification or combination, at the
close of business on the day upon which such corporate action becomes effective.
(ii) Except with respect to Excluded Securities
(as defined below), in case the Corporation shall issue or sell any shares
of Common Stock (or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in Section 11) after
the date hereof (the "Issue Date") at a price per share (or having a conversion
or exercise price per share) less than the Conversion Price then in effect,
in each such case, the Conversion Price shall be appropriately reduced to a
price
- 6 -
(calculated to the nearest cent) determined by multiplying the Conversion Price
then in effect by a fraction (x) the numerator of which is the sum of (A) the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (calculated as set forth in Section
6(c)(iii) hereof) immediately prior to such issuance or sale plus (B) the number
of shares of Common Stock Equivalents which the aggregate consideration received
in respect of such issuance or sale would purchase at such Conversion Price and
(y) the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding (calculated as set forth in Section 6(c)(iii) hereof) after giving
effect to such issuance or sale; provided, however that such fraction will in no
event be greater than 1. An adjustment made pursuant to this clause (ii) shall
be made on the next Business Day following the date on which any such issuance
is made and shall be effective retroactively to the close of business on the
date of such issuance. For purposes of this clause (ii), the consideration
receivable by the Corporation in connection with the issuance of additional
shares of Common Stock or of Common Stock Equivalents since the Issue Date shall
be deemed to be equal to the sum of the aggregate offering price (before
deduction of underwriting discounts or commissions and expenses payable to third
parties, if any) of all such Common Stock and/or Common Stock Equivalents plus
the minimum aggregate amount, if any, payable upon conversion, exchange or
exercise of any such Common Stock Equivalents. The issuance or reissuance of any
shares of Common Stock (whether treasury shares or newly issued shares) pursuant
to a dividend or distribution on, or subdivision, combination or
reclassification of, the outstanding shares of Common Stock requiring an
adjustment in the Conversion Price pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph (c)
of this Section 6 of this Certificate of Designation, shall not be deemed to
constitute an issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents by the
Corporation to which this clause (ii) applies. "Excluded Securities" shall mean
(i) shares of Common Stock and/or Common Stock Equivalents issuable or issued to
employees, outside directors or consultants of the Corporation directly or
pursuant to the Corporation's existing stock option plan, stock incentive plan
or any future stock option plan approved by the Board of Directors of the
Corporation and (h) shares of Common Stock and/or Common Stock Equivalents
issued or issuable as direct consideration for the acquisition by the
Corporation of capital stock or assets of another business entity or in
connection with a merger or consolidation to the extent such issuances are
approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the
Corporation that are not employees ("Outside Directors").
(iii) For purposes of this paragraph (c) of this
Section 6 of this Certificate of Designation, the number of shares of Common
Stock at any time outstanding shall mean the aggregate of all shares of
Common Stock then outstanding (other than any shares of Common Stock then
owned or held by or for the account of the Corporation) treating for purposes
of this calculation all Common Stock Equivalents then outstanding as having
been converted, exchanged or exercised.
(iv) If the Corporation shall take a record of
the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive
a dividend or other distribution and shall thereafter, and before such
dividend or distribution is paid or delivered to stockholders entitled thereto,
legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution, then
- 7 -
no adjustment in the Conversion Price then in effect shall be made by reason of
the taking of such record, and any such adjustment previously made as a result
of the taking of such record shall be reversed.
(d) The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock
upon conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to
the holders thereof for any issuance tax in respect thereof, provided that the
Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect
of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a
name other than that of the holder of the Series D Preferred Stock which is
being converted.
(e) The Corporation will at no time close its transfer books
against the transfer of any Series D Preferred Stock, or of any shares of Common
Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of any shares of Series D Preferred
Stock in any manner which interferes with the timely conversion of such Series D
Preferred Stock, except as may otherwise be required to comply with applicable
securities laws.
(f) As used in this paragraph 6, the term "Common Stock" shall
mean and include the Corporation's authorized Common Stock, as constituted on
the date of filing of this Certificate of Designation, and shall also include
any capital stock of any class of the Corporation thereafter authorized which
shall neither be limited to a fixed sum or percentage in respect of the rights
of the holders thereof to participate in dividends nor be entitled to a
preference in the distribution of assets upon the voluntary or involuntary
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, provided that the
shares of Common Stock receivable upon conversion of shares of Series D
Preferred Stock shall include only shares designated as Common Stock of the
Corporation on the date of filing of this instrument, or in case of any
reorganization or reclassification of the outstanding shares thereof, the stock,
securities or assets to be issued in exchange for such Common Stock pursuant
thereto.
(g) In the case of a Sale of the Corporation (as defined in
Section 11) or a proposed reorganization of the Corporation or a proposed
reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Corporation
(except a transaction for which provision for adjustment is otherwise made in
this Section 6), each share of Series D Preferred Stock shall thereafter be
convertible into the number of shares of stock or other securities or property
to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation
deliverable upon conversion of such Series D Preferred Stock would have been
entitled upon such Sale of the Corporation, reorganization, reclassification or
recapitalization; and, in any such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined
by the Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions
herein set forth with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the
holders of the Series D Preferred Stock. The Corporation shall not effect any
such Sale of the Corporation unless prior to or simultaneously with the
consummation thereof the successor corporation or purchaser, as the case may be,
shall assume by written instrument the obligation to deliver to the holders of
the Series D Preferred Stock such shares of stock,
- 8 -
securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, each such
holder is entitled to receive.
(h) The Corporation will not, by amendment of its Certificate
of Incorporation or through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of
assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any
other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of
any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Corporation, but
will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions
of this Section 6 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the holders of the
Series D Preferred Stock against impairment.
(i) Upon the occurrence of an Automatic Conversion Event, the
outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall be converted automatically
without any further action by the holders of such shares and whether or not the
certificates representing such shares are surrendered to the Corporation or its
transfer agent; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be obligated
to issue to any such holder certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon such conversion unless certificates evidencing such shares of
Series D Preferred Stock are either delivered to the Corporation or any transfer
agent of the Corporation. The holder of any shares of Series D Preferred Stock
may exercise the optional conversion right specified in paragraph 6(a) as to any
part thereof by surrendering to the Corporation or any transfer agent of the
Corporation the certificate or certificates for the shares to be converted,
accompanied by written notice stating that the holder elects to convert all or a
specified portion of the shares represented thereby. Conversion shall be deemed
to have been effected (i) in the case of an Automatic Conversion Event, on the
date of the occurrence of such event or (ii) in any other case, on the date when
delivery of notice of an election to convert and certificates for shares is
made, and any such date is referred to herein as the "Conversion Date." As
promptly as practicable thereafter (and after surrender of the certificate or
certificates representing shares of Series D Preferred Stock to the
Corporation), the Corporation shall issue and deliver to or upon the written
order of such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares
of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled and a check or cash with
respect to any fractional interest in a share of Common Stock. The Person in
whose name the certificate or certificates for Common Stock are to be issued
shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Common Stock on the
applicable Conversion Date. Subject to the provisions of Section 6(a), upon
conversion of only a portion of the number of shares covered by a certificate
representing shares of Series D Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion, the
Corporation shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder
of the certificate so surrendered for conversion, at the expense of the
Corporation, a new certificate covering the number of shares of Series D
Preferred Stock representing the unconverted portion of the certificate so
surrendered.
(j) No fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip shall
be issued upon conversion of shares of Series D Preferred Stock. If more than
one share of Series D
- 9 -
Preferred Stock shall be surrendered for conversion at any one time by the same
holder, the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of
Series D Preferred Stock so surrendered. Instead of any fractional shares of
Common Stock which would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of any shares of
Series D Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall pay a cash adjustment in respect
of such fractional interest in an amount equal to that fractional interest of
the then Current Market Price (as defined in Section 11).
7. Reports as to Adjustment. Upon any adjustment of the Conversion
Price pursuant to the provisions of Section 6 of this Certificate of
Designation, then, and in each such case, the Corporation shall promptly deliver
to the Transfer Agent of the Series D Preferred Stock and the Common Stock and
to each of the holders of the Series D Preferred Stock and the Common Stock, a
certificate signed by the President or a Vice President and by the Treasurer or
an Assistant Treasurer or the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the
Corporation setting forth in reasonable detail the event requiring the
adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated and the
Conversion Price in effect following such adjustment. Where appropriate, such
notice to holders of the Series D Preferred Stock may be given in advance.
8. Certain Covenants. Any registered holder of Series D
Preferred Stock may proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of
any other holders of Series D Preferred Stock with any and all remedies
available at law or in equity.
9. Protective Provisions. So long as shares of Series D Preferred Stock
are outstanding, the Corporation shall not without first obtaining the approval

(f) enter into any transaction with any director or Affiliate
(as defined below) of the Corporation unless the terms of such transaction are
at least as favorable to the Corporation than those which might be obtained at
the time from persons who are not Affiliates and, in the case of a single
transaction or series of transactions involving more than $50,000, has been
approved by a written resolution duly adopted prior to such transaction by a
majority of the Outside Directors. For purposes hereof, an "Affiliate" shall
mean a holder of more than five percent of the existing Common Stock of the
Corporation (on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the conversion of
exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents) or a member of the Board of Directors
of the Corporation;
(g) incur indebtedness for borrowed money in excess of $50,000

10. Redemption. (a) At the individual option of each holder of shares
of Series D Preferred, the Corporation shall redeem, on the fifth anniversary of
the Issue Date (the "Redemption Date"), the number of shares of Series D
Preferred held by such holder that is specified in a request for redemption
delivered to the Corporation by the holder on or prior to 30 days immediately
preceding the Redemption Date, by paying in cash therefor the Issue Price per
share of Series D Preferred (as adjusted for any stock dividends, stock splits,
subdivisions, reclassifications or combinations with respect to such shares)
plus all cumulative (whether declared or not) but unpaid Stock Dividends on such
shares (the "Redemption Price").
(b) At least fifteen (15) but no more than thirty (30) days
prior to the Redemption Date, written notice (the "Redemption Notice") shall be
mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each holder of record (at the close of
business on the business day next preceding the day on which notice is given) of
the Series D Preferred to be redeemed, at the address last shown on the records
of the Corporation for such holder, notifying such holder of the redemption to
be effected, specifying the number of shares to be redeemed from such holder,
the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price, the place at which payment may be
obtained and calling upon such holder to surrender to the Corporation, in the
manner and at the place designated, his, her or its certificate or certificates
representing the shares to be redeemed.
- 11 -
Except as provided in subsection (6)(c) on or after the Redemption Date, each
holder of Series D Preferred to be redeemed shall surrender to the Corporation
the certificate or certificates representing such shares, in the manner and at
the place designated in the Redemption Notice, and thereupon the Redemption
Price of such shares shall be payable to the order of the person whose name

issued representing the unredeemed shares.

have been a default in payment of the Redemption Price, all rights of the
holders of shares of Series D Preferred designated for redemption in the
Redemption Notice as holders of Series D Preferred (except the right to receive
the Redemption Price without interest upon surrender of their certificate or
certificates) shall cease with respect to such shares, and such shares shall not
thereafter be transferred on the books of the Corporation or be deemed to be
outstanding for any purpose whatsoever. If the funds of the Corporation legally
available for redemption of shares of Series D Preferred on the Redemption Date
are insufficient to redeem the total number of shares of Series D Preferred to
be redeemed on such date, those funds which are legally available will be used
to redeem the maximum possible number of such shares ratably among the holders
of such shares to be redeemed based upon their holdings of Series D Preferred.
The shares of Series D Preferred not redeemed shall remain outstanding and
entitled to all the rights and preferences provided herein. At any time
thereafter when additional funds of the Corporation are legally available for
the redemption of shares of Series D Preferred Stock, such funds will
immediately be used to redeem the balance of the shares which the Corporation
has become obliged to redeem on the Redemption Date but which it has not
redeemed.

▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ obligations pursuant to Section 6 hereof shall continue for one
year after the Effective Date notwithstanding that the Company is not required
to make any payments hereunder.
(b) Reimbursement of Expenses. The Company shall reimburse ▇▇.
▇▇▇▇▇▇ for reasonable business expenses incurred in the performance of ▇▇.
▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ duties hereunder, including, but not limited to reasonable and

grant ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ a warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company's common
stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Warrant"), substantially in the form of

the amount of federal, state or local income taxes paid by ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, the
Company will reimburse ▇▇.
▇▇▇▇▇▇ for any such increase in income taxes paid.
6. Non-Competition. (a) Subject to Section 2 hereof, for a period of
one (1) year after the Effective Date, ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall not, directly or
indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company, own, manage,
operate, join, control, be employed by or participate in the ownership,
management, operation or control of, or be connected with (as a stockholder,
partner, or otherwise), any business, individual, partner, firm, corporation, or
other entity that is in the business (i) of the kind conducted by the Company
(or any affiliate of the Company) on the Effective Date (which business shall be
defined as providing software to commercial and governmental organizations for
primarily single sign-on and fine-grain access control capabilities), and (ii)
in the states where the Company (or any affiliate of the Company) operates its
business on the Effective Date; provided, however, that the "beneficial
ownership" by ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, either individually or as a member of a "group," as
such terms are used in Rule 13d of the General Rules and Regulations under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), of not more
than five percent (5%) of the voting stock of any publicly held corporation
shall not be a violation of this Agreement. It is further expressly agreed that
the Company and its affiliates would suffer irreparable injury if ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇
were to compete with the Company or any affiliate of the Company in violation of
this Agreement and that the Company and its affiliates would by reason of such
competition be entitled to injunctive relief in a court of appropriate
jurisdiction, and ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ further consents and stipulates to the entry of
such injunctive relief in such a court prohibiting ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ from competing
with the Company or any affiliate of the Company in violation of this Agreement.
(b) If it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
in any state that the non-competition covenant in this Section 6 is excessive in
duration or scope or is unreasonable or unenforceable under the laws of that
state, it is the intention of the parties that such restriction may be modified
or amended by the court to render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted
by the law of that state.
7. Successors; Binding Agreement. (a) The Company shall require any
successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or
otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the
Company and each entity that, directly or indirectly, becomes a parent
corporation of the Company, by agreement in form and substance satisfactory to
▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same
manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it
if no such succession had taken place. As used in this Agreement, "Company"
shall mean the
- 3 -
Company as herein before defined and any successor to its business and/or assets
and each entity that, directly or indirectly, becomes a parent corporation of
the Company.

shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ personal or
legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs,
distributees, devisees and legatees. If ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ should die while any amounts
would still be payable or benefits would still be provided to him and/or his
family hereunder if he had continued to live, all such amounts and benefits,
unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid or provided in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement to ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ devisees, legatees, or other
designees or, if there be no such designee, to ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ estate.

Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification
or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and such officer
of the Company as may be specifically designated by the Board. No waiver by
either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or
compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by
such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or
conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. No agreements or
