     On Offering Registration Statement or (ii) September 30, 1999, the Company

     Securities (such registration statement and any successor or substitute
     registration statement being referred to in this Section 1.2 as the
     "Registration Statement").

     2.   Except as provided herein, the terms of the Agreement remain in full
force and effect.
