3.4.5           Such Levy Party’s principal residence or place of business is located at the address indicated adjacent to such Levy Party’s signature on the signature page attached hereto; and


 


3.4.6           Such Levy Party realizes that the acquisition of the Shares will be a highly speculative investment and involves a high degree of risk, and such Levy Party is able, without impairing such Levy Party’s financial condition, to hold the Shares for an indefinite period of time and suffer a complete loss on such Levy Party’s investment.

Since the filing of each of the SEC Documents, no event has occurred that would require an amendment or supplement to any such SEC Document that has not been made.

The Common Stock to be included in such underwritten offering shall include the number of Registrable Securities that such underwriter advises the Company in writing can be sold without having such material adverse effect, with. such number to be allocated (i) first, to the Company, (ii) second, pro rata among the Investors (as such term is defined pursuant to the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of March 17, 2010, by and among the Company and certain buyers thereto (the “March 2010 RRA”)) that have requested participation in such underwritten offering, (ii) third, pro rata among the Holders that have requested participation in such underwritten offering and (iv) fourth, pro rata among any other holders of Common Stock that have requested participation in such underwritten offering. The pro rata allocations for each Holder that has requested participation in such underwritten offering shall be the product of (A) the aggregate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by all Holders in such underwritten offering multiplied by (B) the fraction derived by dividing (x) the number of Registrable Securities owned on the closing date by such Holder by (y) the aggregate number of Registrable Securities owned on the closing date by all Holders participating in such underwritten offering.  If the Holders disapprove of the terms of any such Underwritten Offering, then the Holders may elect to withdraw therefrom by giving written notice to the Company and the underwriter.  Any securities so excluded or withdrawn from such Underwritten Offering shall be withdrawn from such registration.


 


(c)           Expenses of Piggyback Registrations.  In the case of any registration effected pursuant to this Section 3, all Registration Expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be borne by the Company, except that underwriting discounts and commissions relating to the sale or disposition of Registrable Securities by the Holders and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale or disposition of Registrable Securities by the Holders, shall be borne by the Holders.  The cost of preparing all documents incorporated by reference or otherwise required to be prepared in the ordinary course of the Company’s business shall be borne by the Company.  Expenses to be borne by the Holders shall be allocated to each Holder in the same proportion which the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder which are included in the registration bears to the Registrable Securities owned by all Holders which are included in the registration.

(d)           Effectiveness of this Section 3.  The Company’s obligations under this Section 3 shall commence only upon the expiration of the Lock-Up Period.  No registration pursuant to this Section 3 shall relieve the Company of its obligations to register Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof, unless all Registrable Securities have been registered and the related Registration Statement has not been withdrawn and remains effective until the end of the Registration Period (as defined herein).  The rights of the Holders pursuant to this Section 3 are subject to the priority rights of the Buyers under the March 2010 RRA.


 


4.             Registration Procedures.  If and whenever the Company shall be required to use its reasonable best efforts to effect or cause the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Act as provided in this Agreement, the Company shall as expeditiously as reasonably possible:


 


(a)           prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities on any form for which the Company then qualifies or that counsel for the Company and counsel for the underwriter shall deem appropriate, and which form shall be available for the sale of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the methods of distribution thereof intended by the Holders participating in such registration, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become and remain effective at all times until the earlier of (i) the date on which all of the Holders may sell all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement pursuant to the volume limitations of Rule 144(e) whether or not Rule 144(e) shall apply to the Holders, or (ii) the date on which the Holders shall have sold all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement (the “Registration Period”);


 


(b)           prepare and file with the Commission amendments and post-effective amendments to such Registration Statement and such amendments and supplements to the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness of such registration or as may be required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form utilized by the Company or by the Act for a Shelf Registration (if available) if requested by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be included in such registration, or otherwise necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective to permit the methods of distribution intended by the Holders participating in such registration and cause the Prospectus as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424, and to otherwise comply with the provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement in the manner reasonably requested by the Holders to be included in such registration until the completion of the Registration Period; provided, however, that a reasonable time before filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto (other than reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act), the Company shall furnish to the Holders, the managing underwriter, if any, and their respective counsel for review and comment, copies of all documents proposed to be filed;

(c)           furnish to the Participating Holders and to any underwriter in connection with an Underwritten Offering such number of conformed copies of such Registration Statement and of each amendment and post-effective amendment thereto (in each case including all exhibits) and such number of copies of any preliminary Prospectus, Prospectus or Prospectus supplement and such other documents as the Participating Holders or underwriter may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities by the Participating Holders or underwriters (the Company hereby consenting to the use (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4(h) hereof) of the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in connection with such disposition);


 


(d)          use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the sale of such Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as the Participating Holders shall reasonably request, except that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to (i) qualify generally to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where, but for the requirements of this Section 4(d), it would not be obligated to be so qualified, (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (iii) to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;


 


(e)           enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form;


 


(f)           cause the Company’s counsel and independent accountants to deliver to the underwriters opinions and comfort letters in customary form as required by any underwriting agreement entered into by the Holders and the Company;


 


(g)           in the case of an underwritten offering,  participate in “road shows” and similar presentations as reasonably requested by the underwriters;


 


(h)          notify the Participating Holders, at any time when a Prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act within the appropriate period mentioned in Section 4(a) hereof, of the Company’s becoming aware that the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, 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 any Participating Holder, prepare and furnish to such Participating Holder a reasonable number of copies of an amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or related Prospectus as may be necessary 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 not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing;


 


(i)           notify the Participating Holders as soon as reasonably possible:


 


(A)           when the Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and, with respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective;


 




  





- 7 -











  






 


(B)           of any request by the Commission or any state securities authority for additional information with respect to the Registration Statement;


 


(C)           of any request by the Commission or any state securities authority for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus;


 


(D)           of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any order preventing the use of a related Prospectus, or the initiation (or any overt threats) of any proceedings for such purposes; and


 


(E)           of the receipt by the Company of any written notification of the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation (or overt threats) of any proceeding for that purpose.


 


(j)            use its reasonable best efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed or quoted on a national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the class of Registrable Securities being registered is then listed or quoted, if such Registrable Securities are not already so listed or quoted;


 


(k)           in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related Prospectus or suspending the qualification of any Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement for sale in any jurisdiction, use reasonable best reasonable efforts promptly to obtain its withdrawal.


 


5.             Obligations of Holders.


 


(a)           Each Holder shall furnish in writing to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it, as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration (including registration under applicable “blue sky” laws) of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may be reasonably required to effect such registration.  At least seven (7) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of any Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Holder of the information the Company requires from such Holder if such Holder elects to have any of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement.  Each Holder shall provide such information to the Company at least two (2) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement if such Holder elects to have any of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement.  If a Holder fails to fulfill its obligations under the preceding sentence, the Company shall not be required to include the Registrable Securities of a Holder in a Registration Statement.


 




  





- 8 -











  






 


(b)           Each Holder, by its acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of a Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Holder has notified the Company in writing of its election to exclude all of its Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.


 


(c)           Each Holder shall, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 4(h) or 4(i)(C)-4(i)(E) hereof, forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Prospectus or Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until otherwise notified by the Company or until the Holders shall have received copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 4(h) or 4(i)(C)-4(i)(E) hereof, and, if reasonably so directed by the Company, the Holders shall deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in the Holders’ possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.  Each Holder acknowledges and agrees that it will comply with any prospectus delivery requirements of the Act as applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable Securities.


 


6.            Lock-Up Period Agreement.  In consideration for the Company agreeing to its obligations under this Agreement, the Holders agree not to (a) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the Registrable Securities, or (b) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Registrable Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (a) or (b) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, in each such case prior to December 31, 2013 (the “Lock-Up Period”); provided that nothing contained herein shall prohibit any Holder of Registrable Securities from transferring any Common Stock to a trust established for estate planning purposes, so long as the trust executes a similar undertaking; and provided further that, the Lock-Up Period shall terminate immediately in the event that shares of the Company with an aggregate purchase price of more than five million dollars ($5,000,000) are sold by the selling stockholders (or their successors in interest) listed in the Existing Shelf Registration Statement in the public market; provided, further, that transfers among a selling stockholder and one or more of its Affiliates and/or private transfers and sales shall not be included in determining such aggregate purchase price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the terms of this Section 6 may not be amended or modified, directly or indirectly, without the express written consent of each Holder of Registrable Securities detrimentally affected by such amendment or modification and any such amendment or modification made without such Holder’s consent shall not be applicable to that Holder.

7.             Rule 144 Reporting.  With a view toward making available to the Holders the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission that may permit the sale of the Common Stock to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to:


 


(a)           make and keep current public information available, within the meaning of Rule 144 or any similar or analogous rule promulgated under the Act until the earlier of: (A) six months after such date as all of the Registrable Securities may be resold without the volume limitation of Rule 144(e), whether or not Rule 144(e) shall apply to the Holders, or (B) such date as all of the Registrable Securities shall have been resold;


 


(b)           file with the Commission, in a timely manner, all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Act and the Exchange Act; and


 


(c)           so long as any party hereto owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to such party forthwith upon request, a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Act and the Exchange Act; a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company; and such other reports and documents as such party may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing it to sell any such securities without registration.


 


8.            Transfer of Registration Rights.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Holders and their respective permitted successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by any Holder (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the Company, provided, however, that any Holder may transfer or assign, in whole or from time to time in part, to one or more persons, which shall be an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D, as amended under the 1933 Act, and which shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, an executed counterpart of which shall be furnished to the Company, its rights hereunder in connection with the transfer of all Registrable Securities by such Holder to such person, provided that such Holder complies with all laws applicable thereto and provides written notice of assignment to the Company promptly after such assignment is effected.  This Agreement may not be assigned by the Company (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the Holders of a majority of Registrable Securities, provided, however, that the Company may assign its rights and delegate its duties hereunder to any surviving or successor corporation in connection with a merger or consolidation of the Company with another corporation, or a sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another corporation, without the prior written consent of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities, after notice duly given by the Company to each Holder.


 


9.             General Indemnification.


 


(a)           In connection with any registration or qualification of the Registrable Securities under this Agreement, (i) the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the Holders, including but not limited to each Person, if any, who controls a Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act, against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including but not limited to reasonable expenses incurred in investigating, preparing and defending against any claim) to which a Holder or such controlling person may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law, or otherwise, insofar as the same arise out of or are based upon or are caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or Free Writing Prospectus furnished pursuant to this Agreement or insofar as the same arise out of or are based upon or are caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are ultimately determined to have arisen out of or were based upon or were caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission based upon written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Holder or any such control person for inclusion in any Registration Statement, Prospectus (and any amendments or supplements thereto) or Free Writing Prospectus, and (ii) each Holder, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify the Company, its affiliates, any person who signed any Registration Statement, and their respective officers, directors and control persons against all such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including but not limited to reasonable expenses incurred in investigating, preparing and defending against any claim), to which such Person may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law, or otherwise, insofar as the same are ultimately determined to have arisen out of or were based upon or were caused by any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or any such omission or alleged omission based upon written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder or any such control person for the inclusion in any Registration Statement, Prospectus (and any amendments or supplements thereto) or Free Writing Prospectus.

(b)           Notice of, and Procedures for, Collecting Indemnification.  Promptly upon receipt by a party indemnified under this Agreement of notice of the commencement of any action against such indemnified party in respect of which indemnity or reimbursement may be sought against any indemnifying party under this Agreement, such indemnified party shall notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement of such action, but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it of any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under this Agreement unless such failure shall materially and adversely affect the defense of such action.  In case notice of commencement of any such action shall be given to the indemnifying party as above provided, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense of such action at its own expense, with counsel chosen by it and reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party.  The indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel (other than reasonable expenses incurred in investigating, preparing and defending against any claim) shall be paid by the indemnified party unless (a) the indemnifying party agrees to pay the same, (b) the indemnifying party fails to assume the defense of such action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party (in which case the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party), or (c) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) have been advised by their counsel that representation of such indemnified party and the indemnifying party by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct (in which case the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party).  In the event that either of the circumstances described in clauses (b) and (c) of the sentence immediately preceding shall occur, the indemnified party shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of any such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other reasonable expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred.  No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement entered into without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(c)           Contribution.  To provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Act in any case in which either (i) any party otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9 (a) or (b) hereof but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case, notwithstanding the fact that this Section 9 (a) or (b) hereof  provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Act may be required on the part of any party hereto for which indemnification is provided under this Section 9 (a) or (b) hereof,  then, and in each such case, such parties will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of each of indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the statements, omissions, or other actions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability, or expense, as well as to reflect any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact, or the omission or alleged omission of a material fact, relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, however, that, in any such case, (x) no Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Holder pursuant to such registration statement, and (y) no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) will be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation; and provided further that in no event shall a Holder’s liability pursuant to this Section 9( c), when combined with the amounts paid or payable by such Holder pursuant to Section 9(b), exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder (net of any selling expenses and other damages paid by such Holder in connection with such registration), except in the case of willful misconduct or fraud by such Holder.


 


10.           Notices.  All notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (a) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified in this Section prior to 6:30 p.m. (New York Time) on a Business Day, (b) the next Business Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number or via e-mail at the e-mail address specified in this Section on a day that is not a Business Day or later than 6:30 p.m. on any Business Day, (c) the Business Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (d) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given.  The addresses and facsimile numbers for such notices and communications shall be as follows:
