Subject to certain conditions and pursuant to Section 1.3 of the Registration Rights Agreement, QIP, Quantum Partners and Duquesne Fund have been granted certain "piggy-back" registration rights. If the Issuer proposes to register any of its stock or other securities it shall give each Holder (as defined therein, including each of QIP, Quantum Partners and Duquesne Fund) notice of such registration. Thereafter, and upon the written request of each Holder, given within twenty (20) days, the Issuer shall cause to be registered, subject to certain cut-back provisions, all of the Registrable Securities (as defined therein) that each Holder has requested to be registered. In connection with the transaction pursuant to which Shares were issued pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, SFM LLC has agreed that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, neither it nor its affiliates or controlling persons will acquire or offer to acquire any voting securities, or rights to acquire voting securities, of the Issuer for a period of six months from June 4, 1997, subject to the shortening of such period in certain circumstances. From time to time each of the Reporting Persons, Quantum Partners, Quasar Partners, other SFM Clients, Duquesne Fund and/or other Duquesne LLC Clients may lend portfolio securities to brokers, banks or other financial institutions. These loans typically obligate the borrower to return the securities, or an equal amount of securities of the same class, to the lender and typically provide that the borrower is entitled to exercise voting rights and to retain dividends during the term of the loan. From time to time to the extent permitted by applicable law, each of such persons or entities may borrow the Shares for the purpose of effecting, and may effect, short sale transactions, and may purchase securities for the purpose of closing out short positions in such securities. Except as set forth above and as described in Items 3 hereto, which is incorporated in this Item 6 by reference, the Reporting Persons, Quantum Partners, Quasar Partners and Duquesne Fund do not have any contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships with respect to any securities of the Issuer.

All Purchasers shall deliver to the Company an executed copy of the Registration Statement Questionnaire in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C as a condition precedent to the Company's obligation to file the Registration Statement with the SEC and in any event within ten (10) days of the Company's request therefor.

"Selling Expenses" shall mean all selling commissions, underwriting discounts and stock transfer taxes applicable to the Shares and all fees and disbursements of counsel for any Purchaser. (c) In the case of the registration effected by the Company pursuant to these registration provisions, the Company will use its best efforts to: (i) keep such registration effective until the earliest of (A) nineteen (19) months after the initial effective date of the Registration Statement, which date shall be extended by the period (not to exceed five (5) months) equal to the period, if any, that the Purchasers are unable to sell any Shares as a result of any withdrawal of the Registration Statement by the Company pursuant to Section 7.2(f) below (other than a withdrawal in response to any Notice of Sale (as defined in Section 7.2(f) below) that indicates any Purchaser desires to sell no more than 50,000 Shares)(the "Effective Period"), and (B) such date as all of the Shares have been resold in transactions in which the Purchasers have not assigned their benefits and obligations under Section 7 in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.5 below; (ii) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by the Registration Statement; (iii) furnish such number of prospectuses and other documents incident thereto, including any amendment of or supplement to the prospectus, as a Purchaser from time to time may reasonably request; (iv) cause all Shares registered as described herein to be listed on each securities exchange and quoted on each quotation service on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or quoted; (v) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Shares registered pursuant to the Registration Statement and a CUSIP number for all such Shares; and (vi) file the documents required of the Company and otherwise use its best efforts to maintain requisite blue sky clearance in (A) all jurisdictions in which any of the Shares are originally sold and (B) all other states specified in writing by a Purchaser, provided as to clause (B), however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any state in which it is not now so qualified or has not so consented. (d) The Company shall furnish to each Purchaser upon request a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of all or any of the Shares held by the Purchaser. 10 Page 39 of 50 Pages (e) With a view to making available to the Purchasers the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act ("Rule 144") and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Purchaser to sell Shares to the public without registration or pursuant to the Registration Statement, the Company covenants and agrees to: (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, until the earlier of (A) the end of the Effective Period or (B) such date as all of the Shares have been resold in transactions in which the Purchasers have not assigned their benefits and obligations under Section 7 in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.5 below; (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and Exchange Act; and (iii) furnish to any Purchaser upon request, as long as the Purchaser owns any Shares, (A) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (B) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and (C) such other information as may be reasonably requested in order to avail any Purchaser of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such Shares without registration or pursuant to the Registration Statement.

The Company may refuse to permit a Purchaser to resell any Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement; provided, however, that in order to exercise this right, the Company must deliver a certificate in writing to the Purchaser within three (3) business days following the Company's receipt of the Notice of Sale to the effect that withdrawal of such Registration Statement is necessary because a sale pursuant to the Registration Statement in its then-current form could constitute a violation of the federal securities laws. In such an event, the Company shall use its best efforts to amend the Registration Statement if necessary as soon as practicable and in any event within sixty (60) days after the Company's receipt of the Notice of Sale, and shall notify the Purchasers promptly after it has determined that such sale has become permissible under the federal securities laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not under any circumstances be entitled to exercise its right to refuse to permit the resale of any Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement more than two (2) times in any twelve (12) month period, except that the Company's exercise of its right to refuse to permit the resale of any Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement in response to any Notice of Sale that indicates the Purchaser desires to sell no more than 50,000 Shares shall not count toward its limit of two (2) refusals in any twelve (12) month period. The period during which such Registration Statement may be withdrawn shall not exceed sixty (60) days. Each Purchaser hereby covenants and agrees that it will not sell any Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement during the periods the Registration Statement is withdrawn as set forth in this Section 7.2(f). 11 Page 40 of 50 Pages 7.3 Indemnification and Contribution. -------------------------------- (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser and its affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) to which they may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon, (x) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, on the effective date thereof, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (y) 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, or (z) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or arise out of any failure by the Company to fulfill any undertaking included in the Registration Statement, and the Company will, as incurred, reimburse such Purchaser for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such loss, claim, damage or liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof); provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) arises out of, or is based upon (i) an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Purchaser specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the failure of such Purchaser to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Section 7.3 hereof, or (iii) any untrue statement in any Prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent Prospectus that was delivered to the Purchaser prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Purchaser. (b) Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) to which the Company may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon (i) an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Purchaser specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, provided, however, that no Purchaser shall be liable in any such case for any untrue statement included in any Prospectus which statement has been corrected, in writing, by such Purchaser and delivered to the Company before the sale from which such loss occurred, (ii) the failure of such Purchaser to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Section 7.3 hereof, or (iii) any untrue statement in any Prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent Prospectus that was delivered to the Purchaser prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Purchaser, and each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, 12 Page 41 of 50 Pages will, as incurred, reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such loss, claim, damage or liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof); provided, however, that no Purchaser shall be liable for any amount in excess of the amount by which the net amount received by the Purchaser from the sale of the Shares to which such loss relates exceeds the amount of any damages which such Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. (c) Promptly after receipt by any indemnified person of a notice of a claim or the beginning of any action in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying person pursuant to this Section 7.3, such indemnified person shall notify the indemnifying person in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such action, and, subject to the provisions hereinafter stated, in case any such action shall be brought against an indemnified person and the indemnifying person shall have been notified thereof, the indemnifying person shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified person. After notice from the indemnifying person to such indemnified person of the indemnifying person's election to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying person shall not be liable to such indemnified person for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified person in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if there exists or shall exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified person for the same counsel to represent both the indemnified person and such indemnifying person or any affiliate or associate thereof, the indemnified person shall be entitled to retain its own counsel at the expense of such indemnifying person. (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.3 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Purchasers on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. 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 Company on the one hand or a Purchaser on the other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating 13 Page 42 of 50 Pages or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net amount received by the Purchaser from the sale of the Shares to which such loss relates exceeds the amount of any damages which such Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Purchasers' obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective sales of Shares to which such loss relates and not joint. (e) The obligations of the Company and the Purchasers under this Section 7.3 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company and the respective Purchasers may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls the Company or any Purchaser within the meaning of the Act. 7.4 Nomination for Election to Company Board of Directors. Upon ------------------------------------------------------ the request of the record holders of more than fifty percent (50%) of the Shares then outstanding and held by Purchasers (the "Majority Holders"), the Company shall use its best efforts to cause its Board of Directors to nominate and elect or have elected after June 24, 1997, an individual designated in writing by the Majority Holders, which individual must also be acceptable to the Chairman of the Company's Board of Directors, to serve on the Company's Board of Directors; provided, however, that the Company's obligation pursuant to this Section 7.4 shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the second anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) the date when the aggregate number of shares of the Company's Common Stock held by the Purchasers is less than ten percent (10%) of the total number of outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock. 7.5 Public Statements. Neither the Company nor the Purchasers ------------------ shall use the name of the other in any press release or filing with the SEC (excluding Schedule 13Ds and Forms 3, 4 and 5) without the prior approval of the other party, which approval may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that to the extent such prior approval is impracticable, the - -------- ------- party issuing the press release or making the filing with the SEC shall provide a copy of such press release or SEC filing to the other party as promptly as practicable thereafter; and provided, further, that if the other party does not -------- ------- approve such press release or SEC filing, the party issuing the press release or making the filing with the SEC may still use the name of the other party in any press release or SEC filing without the prior written approval of the other party, if the party issuing the press release or making the filing with the SEC is advised by counsel that such disclosure is required to comply with applicable law. 14 Page 43 of 50 Pages Section 8 Miscellaneous ------------- 8.1 Waivers and Amendments. With the exception of Section 7 ------------------------ hereof, the terms of this Agreement may be waived or amended with the written consent of the Company and each Purchaser. With respect to Section 7 hereof, with the written consent of the Company and the record holders of more than fifty percent (50%) of the Shares then outstanding and held by Purchasers, the terms of Section 7 of this Agreement may be waived or amended and any such amendment or waiver shall be binding upon the Company and all holders of Shares. 8.2 Placement Agent's Fee. Each Purchaser acknowledges that the ---------------------- Company intends to pay to George McFadden or an entity designated by him a fee of $500,000 in respect of the sale of the Shares.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Purchaser shall assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent may be withheld by the Company in its sole discretion for any or no reason; provided, that the benefits and obligations of any Purchaser under Section 7 may be transferred by a Purchaser without the prior written consent of the Company to any person that acquires at least 51% of the Shares acquired by such Purchaser at the Closing, so long as the transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the provisions of Section 7 to the same extent as the Purchaser from whom it acquired the Shares. 8.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the full and ----------------- entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof. 8.7 Notices, etc. All notices and other communications required ------------- or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and may be delivered in person, by facsimile, overnight delivery service or registered or certified United States mail, addressed to the Company or the Purchasers, as the case may be, at their respective addresses set forth at the beginning of this Agreement or on Exhibit A, and in the case of all notices and other communications to the --------- Purchasers, a copy will be delivered to Soros Fund Management LLC, 888 Seventh 15 Page 44 of 50 Pages Avenue, Suite 3300, New York, New York 10106, Attn: Sean Warren, (212) 541-7751 (fax), or at such other address as the Company or the Purchasers shall have furnished to the other party in writing.
