(a) Within thirty (30) days following the date on which the closing price on the American Stock Exchange of the Company's Common Stock has been equal to or in excess of $12.50 for fifteen (15) consecutive days, the Purchaser may file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3 (or equivalent form) (the "REGISTRATION STATEMENT") with respect to the shares of Common Stock (the "WARRANT SHARES") issuable upon the exercise of the Spatial Warrant. If the Purchaser chooses to file the Registration Statement, Purchaser shall use reasonable commercial efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as promptly as possible and shall maintain the Registration Statement in effect until the termination of the Spatial Warrant or the resale of all of the underlying shares. The Purchaser shall keep the Participating Holders reasonably informed regarding such filing and confirm when such filing is effective and otherwise cooperate with the Participating Holders in customary ways so as to allow such Participating Holders to sell the Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement. (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Person to whom rights under the Warrant may be assigned, or who receives Warrant Shares, shall have any rights under this Section 6 unless such Person executes a written agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and content to the Purchaser confirming that such Person wishes to be allowed to sell Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement and agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 6. (A Person (which shall include Seller) who receives rights under the Warrant or Warrant Shares and who executes and delivers such an agreement is referred to in this Section 6 as a "PARTICIPATING HOLDER.") 6.2 EXPENSES. The Purchaser shall bear all fees and expenses incurred in connection with any registration under this Section 6, including without limitation all registration, qualification, filing, printers' and accounting fees, except that each Participating Holder shall bear its proportionate share of all amounts payable to underwriters for discounts and commissions. 6.3 INDEMNIFICATION. (a) The Purchaser agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Participating Holder, its respective directors and officers and each Person who controls such Participating Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all Damages suffered by such Person as a result of any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement or in the related prospectus or preliminary prospectus (or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto) or as a result of any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission results from or is contained in any information furnished in writing to the Purchaser by such Participating Holder for use therein or results from such Participating Holder's failure to deliver a copy of a Registration Statement or related prospectus (or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto) after the Purchaser has furnished such Participating Holder with a sufficient number of copies thereof. (b) In connection with each Registration Statement, each Participating Holder (i) shall 12. 13 furnish to the Purchaser in writing such information and affidavits as the Purchaser reasonably requests for use in connection with such Registration Statement or the related prospectus and (ii) to the extent permitted by law, will indemnify the Purchaser, its directors and officers and each Person who controls the Purchaser (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all Damages resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in such Registration Statement or in the related prospectus or preliminary prospectus (or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto) or from any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission results from or is contained in any information or affidavit furnished in writing by such Participating Holder. (c) Any Person entitled to indemnification under this Section 6 will (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) unless in the indemnified party's reasonable judgment a conflict of interest exists between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party with respect to such claim, permit the indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any consent to the entry of any judgment or any settlement made by the indemnified party without the indemnifying party's consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will pay the fees and expenses of only one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified party and any other indemnified party with respect to such claim (in which case the indemnifying party will pay the fees and expenses of additional counsel). 6.4 TRANSFERABILITY OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights of Participating Holders under this Section 6 shall be transferable in connection with: (a) the distribution of the assets of Seller to its shareholders, (b) a transfer by will or intestacy; and (c) estate planning transfers consisting of gifts to the spouse or issue of the transferor or to a charity qualified under Section 501(c)(3) of the Code.

No failure on the part of any Person to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of any Person in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or 14. 15 remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy. 7.10 AMENDMENTS.
