                           (i) Each time that the Company proposes for any
reason to register any of its Common Stock under the Securities Act in
connection with the proposed offer and sale of its Common Stock , either for its
own account or on behalf of any other security holder ("Proposed Registration"),
other than pursuant to a registration statement on Forms S-4, S-8 or any similar
forms, the Company shall promptly give written notice of such Proposed
Registration to

<PAGE>

                               ATTORNEYS.COM, INC.
                        FORM 10-QSB - SEPTEMBER 30, 2000

Shareholder, and shall offer to Shareholder the right to request inclusion of
his Common Stock issued pursuant to the terms of the Agreement in the Proposed
Registration.

                           (ii) The Shareholder shall have 30 days from the
receipt of such notice to deliver to the Company a written request specifying
the number of shares of Common Stock that Shareholder intends to sell in the
Proposed Registration, as well as information on Shareholder's intended method
of disposition.

                           (iii) If the Proposed Registration by the Company is,
in whole or in part, an underwritten public offering, the Company shall so
advise Shareholder and any request must specify that his Common Stock be
included in the underwriting on the same terms and conditions as the shares of
Common Stock otherwise being sold through underwriters under such registration.

                           (iv) Upon receipt of a written request the Company
shall promptly use its best efforts to cause all such shares of Common Stock
held by Shareholder to be registered under the Securities Act (and included in
any related qualifications or registration under blue sky laws) , to the extent
required to permit sale or disposition as set forth in the Proposed
Registration.

                           (v) If the offering is to be an underwritten
offering, and Shareholder proposes to distribute its shares of Common Stock
through such underwritten offering, Shareholder agrees to enter into an
underwriting agreement with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such
underwriting by the Company. The Shareholder may withdraw his Common Stock from
such offering at any time until the day prior to the effective date by written
notice to the Company and the managing underwriter.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if in its good faith judgment the managing
underwriter determines and advises the Company in writing that the inclusion of
the Common Stock issued to Shareholder pursuant to the Agreement in the
underwritten public offering, together with any Common Stock offered by the
Company, would interfere with the successful marketing of such securities, the
managing underwriter may exclude the Common Stock owned by the Shareholder from
the Proposed Registration as long as all shares of Common Stock owned by the
Company's officers, directors and 5% shareholders are excluded.

                  (b) Preparation and Filing. If and whenever the Company is
under an obligation pursuant to this Agreement to use its best efforts to effect
the registration of any shares of its Common Stock, the Company shall, as
expeditiously as practicable:

                           (i) prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") a registration statement for such securities, and
use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain
effective in accordance with Section 2(b) hereof;

                           (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such
amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus
used in connection therewith as

                        FORM 10-QSB - SEPTEMBER 30, 2000

may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective until the earlier
of (A) the sale of all Common Stock covered thereby or (B) three months after
the effective date of the registration statement, and to comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the sale or other disposition
of all Common Stock covered by such registration statement;

                           (iii) furnish to the Shareholder such number of
copies of any prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with
the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as such holder
may reasonably request, to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of
such shares of Common Stock issued to Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement;

                           (iv) use its best efforts to register or qualify the
Common Stock covered by such registration statement under the securities or blue
sky laws of New York and up to three other states that do not impose what is
commonly referred to as merit review (except to the extent provided in Section
2(a)(iv)) and do all other acts or things which may be necessary or advisable to
enable Shareholder to consummate the public sale or other disposition in such
jurisdictions of such Common Stock; provided, however, that the Company shall
not be required to consent to general service of process for all purposes in any
jurisdiction where it is not then subject to process, qualify to do business as
a foreign corporation where it would not be otherwise required to qualify or
submit to liability for state or local taxes where it is not liable for such
taxes;

                           (v) at any time when a prospectus required to be
delivered under the Securities Act, notify Shareholder of the happening of any
event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration, as then
in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing and, at the
request of such holder, as promptly as practicable prepare, file and furnish to
such holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of
such prospectus as may be necessary so that 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 not misleading in
light of the circumstances then existing;

                           (vi) if the Company has delivered preliminary or
final prospectuses to Shareholder and after having done so the prospectus is
amended to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Company shall
promptly notify Shareholder and Shareholder , if requested, shall immediately
cease making offers of his Common Stock and return all prospectuses to the
Company. The Company shall promptly provide Shareholder with revised
prospectuses and, following receipt of the revised prospectuses, Shareholder
shall be free to resume making offers of the Common Stock.

                  (c) Expenses. The Company shall pay all expenses incurred in
complying with this Section 2.2, including, without limitation, all registration
and filing fees (including all expenses incident to filing with the NASD

with securities and blue sky laws, printing expenses, and fees and disbursements
of the Company's counsel; provided, however, that all underwriting discounts and
