 2. Registration. 
  
 a. Mandatory Registration. The Company shall prepare, and, as soon as practicable but in no event later than 45 days after the Closing Date (as
defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) (the “Filing Deadline”), file with the SEC a Registration Statement on Form S-3 covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities. In the event that Form S-3 is unavailable for
such a registration, the Company shall use such other form as is available for such a registration, subject to the provisions of Section 2(d). The Registration Statement prepared pursuant hereto shall register for resale at least that number of
shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Registrable Securities as of the trading day immediately preceding the date the Registration Statement is initially filed with the SEC, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2(e), and shall
contain the “Selling Securityholders” section and “Plan of Distribution” attached hereto as Annex I. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC as
soon as practicable, but in no event later than the date which is (i) in the event that the Registration Statement is not subject to a review by the SEC, 90 days after the Closing Date, or (ii) in the event that the Registration Statement is subject
to a review by the SEC, 150 days after the Closing Date (the “Effectiveness Deadline”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any day on which 
  

 -2 








 a Force Majeur (as defined) has occurred or is continuing shall not count toward the calculation of 90 or 150 days, as
applicable; for purposes hereof, “Force Majeur” shall mean events beyond the control of any party hereto, including but not limited to acts of God, acts or regulations of any governmental entity, war, terrorism, riots, insurrection
or other hostilities, accident, fire, or flood. 
  
 b.
Allocation of Registrable Securities. The initial number of Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement and each increase in the number of Registrable Securities included therein pursuant to Section 2(e) shall be allocated
pro rata among the Investors based on the number of Registrable Securities held by each Investor at the time the Registration Statement covering such initial number of Registrable Securities or increase thereof is declared effective by the SEC. In
the event that an Investor sells or otherwise transfers any of such Investor’s Registrable Securities, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the then remaining number of Registrable Securities included in such Registration
Statement for such transferor. Any shares of Common Stock included in a Registration Statement and which remain allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement shall be allocated to the
remaining Investors, pro rata based on the number of Registrable Securities then held by such Investors which are covered by such Registration Statement. In no event shall the Company include any securities other than Registrable Securities on any
Registration Statement without the prior written consent of Investors holding at least a majority of the Registrable Securities. 
  
 c. Legal Counsel. Subject to Section 5 hereof, the Buyers holding at least a majority of the Registrable Securities shall have the right to select
one legal counsel to review and oversee any registration pursuant to this Section 2 (“Legal Counsel”), which shall be Schulte Roth & Zabel LLP or such other counsel as thereafter designated by the holders of at least a majority
of the Registrable Securities. The Company and Legal Counsel shall reasonably cooperate with each other in performing the Company’s obligations under this Agreement. 
  
 d. Ineligibility for Form S-3. In the event that Form S-3 is not available for the registration of the resale of
Registrable Securities hereunder, the Company shall (i) register the resale of the Registrable Securities on another appropriate form reasonably acceptable to the holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities and (ii) undertake to
register the Registrable Securities on Form S-3 as soon as such form is available, provided that the Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement then in effect until such time as a Registration Statement on Form S-3
covering the Registrable Securities has been declared effective by the SEC. 
  
 e. Sufficient Number of Shares Registered. In the event the number of shares available under a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(a) is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities
required to be covered by such Registration Statement or an Investor’s allocated portion of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2(b), the Company shall amend the applicable Registration Statement, or file a new Registration Statement
(on the short form available therefor, if applicable), or both, so as to cover at least 100% of the number of such Registrable Securities as of the trading day immediately preceding the date of the filing of such amendment or new Registration
Statement, in each case, as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than fifteen (15) days after the Company becomes aware of 
  

 -3 








 the necessity therefor. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration
Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof. For purposes of the foregoing provision, the number of shares available under a Registration Statement shall be deemed “insufficient to cover all of the
Registrable Securities” if at any time the number of shares of Common Stock available for resale under such Registration Statement is less than the number of Registrable Securities. The calculation set forth in the foregoing sentence shall be
made without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Additional Investment Rights (other than the expiration thereof) and such calculation shall assume that the Additional Investment Rights are then exercisable into shares of Common Stock.

  
 f. Effect of Failure to File and Obtain and Maintain
Effectiveness of Registration Statement. If (i) a Registration Statement covering all the Registrable Securities required to be covered thereby and required to be filed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement is (A) not filed with the SEC on
or before the Filing Deadline (a “Filing Failure”) or (B) not declared effective by the SEC on or before the Effectiveness Deadline (an “Effectiveness Failure”) or (ii) on any day after the Effective Date sales of
all the Registrable Securities required to be included on such Registration Statement cannot be made (other than during an Allowable Grace Period (as defined in Section 3(r) below) or as a result of the circumstances described in Section 3(m) below)
pursuant to such Registration Statement (including, without limitation, because of a failure: (A) to keep such Registration Statement effective, (B) to disclose such information as is necessary for sales to be made pursuant to such Registration
Statement, or (C) to register sufficient shares of Common Stock or to have the Common Stock listed or quoted, or not suspended, on the Principal Market or an Alternative Market (as each such term is defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement)) (a
“Maintenance Failure”), or (iii) the exercise rights of the holders pursuant to the Additional Investment Rights are suspended or not honored for any reason (the foregoing, an “AIR Exercisability Failure”), then, as
partial relief for the damages to any Investor by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the underlying shares of Common Stock (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available at law or in equity), the
Company shall pay to each holder of Registrable Securities relating to such Registration Statement: (1) on each of the day of a Filing Failure, an Effectiveness Failure, a Maintenance Failure or an AIR Exercisability Failure, as the case may be, an
amount in cash equal to the product of: (i) the aggregate Purchase Price (as such term is defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) of such Investor’s Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement multiplied by (ii) 0.015,
and (2) on the earlier of the last day of each 30 day period after a Filing Failure, an Effectiveness Failure, a Maintenance Failure or a AIR Exercisability Failure, as the case may be, or on the third Business Day after any such Filing Failure,
Effectiveness Failure, Maintenance Failure or AIR Exercisability Failure is cured, an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the aggregate Purchase Price of such Investor’s Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement
multiplied by (ii) 0.015 (prorated for partial months); provided however, that the payments, described in clause (1) above shall not accrue or be payable with respect to an Effectiveness Failure that arises from a written determination
by the SEC that one or more of the Buyers are acting as underwriters and the Company’s ineligibility to use a Form S-3 Registration Statement for the re-sale of the Registrable Securities. If the Company fails to make any payments pursuant to
this Section 2(f) in a timely manner, such payments shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full.

 3. Related Obligations. 
  
 At such time as the Company is obligated to file a Registration Statement with the SEC pursuant to Section 2(a), 2(d) or
2(e), the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and, pursuant thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:

  
 a. The Company shall submit to the SEC, within two (2)
Business Days after the Company learns that no review of a particular Registration Statement will be made by the staff of the SEC or that the staff of the SEC has no further comments on a particular Registration Statement, as the case may be, a
request for acceleration of effectiveness of such Registration Statement to a time and date not later than 48 hours after the submission of such request; provided, that in any case above in which a reference is made to the second Business Day
following the date on which the Company is notified by the SEC that any Registration Statement will not be reviewed or is no longer subject to further comments, the Company shall be deemed to not be in violation of this Section 3(a) so long as the
Company reasonably determines, after consultation with legal counsel, that a pre-effective amendment to the Registration Statement would be necessary or desirable to reflect additional or supplemental financial or other information that was not
reflected in the Registration Statement as filed (including, without limitation, any information included in a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or other periodic or current report filed with the SEC subsequent to the original filing of the Registration
Statement), so long as such amendment is filed, and the Registration Statement declared effective, as promptly as practicable and in any event not later than the period required in Section 2(a) hereof. The Company shall keep each Registration
Statement effective pursuant to Rule 415 at all times until the earlier of (i) the date as of which the Investors may sell all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement without restriction pursuant to Rule 144(k) (or
successor thereto) promulgated under the 1933 Act or (ii) the date on which the Investors shall have sold all the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement (the “Registration Period”). The Company shall ensure
that each Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any 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 (in the case of prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading. 
  
 b. The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and
the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the 1933 Act, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective at all times during the
Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable
Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement. In the case of amendments and supplements to a Registration Statement which
are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to this Section 3(b)) by reason of the Company filing a report on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q or Form 8-K or any analogous report under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the “1934 Act”), the Company shall have 
  

 -5 








 incorporated such report by reference into such Registration Statement, if applicable, or shall file such amendments or
supplements with the SEC on the same day on which the 1934 Act report is filed which created the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement such Registration Statement. 
  
 c. The Company shall: (i) permit Legal Counsel to review and comment upon: (A) a Registration Statement at least five (5)
Business Days prior to its filing with the SEC, and (B) all amendments and supplements to all Registration Statements (except for Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K and any similar or
successor reports) within a reasonable number of days prior to their filing with the SEC, and (ii) not file any Registration Statement or amendment or supplement thereto in a form to which Legal Counsel reasonably objects. The Company shall not
submit a request for acceleration of the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto without the prior approval of Legal Counsel, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall furnish to
Legal Counsel, without charge: (1) copies of any correspondence from the SEC or the staff of the SEC to the Company or its representatives relating to any Registration Statement, (2) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC, one
copy of any Registration Statement and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference, if requested by an Investor and not otherwise available on the EDGAR system, and all
exhibits, and (3) upon the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, one copy of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto. The Company and Legal Counsel shall reasonably cooperate with each
other in performing the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Section 3. 
  
 d. The Company shall furnish to each Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in any Registration Statement, without charge: (i) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC, at least one copy
of such Registration Statement and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference, if requested by an Investor and not otherwise available on the EDGAR system, all exhibits and
each preliminary prospectus, (ii) upon the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, ten (10) copies of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other number of copies as such
Investor may reasonably request), and (iii) such other documents, including copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as such Investor may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities
owned by such Investor. 
  
 e. The Company shall use its
reasonable best efforts to: (i) register and qualify, unless an exemption from registration and qualification applies, the resale by Investors of the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement under such other securities or
“blue sky” laws of all applicable jurisdictions in the United States, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be
necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take
all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company 
  

 -6 








 shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to: (A) qualify to do business in any
jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(e), (B) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (C) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. The Company
shall promptly notify Legal Counsel and each Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for
sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. 
  
 f. The Company shall notify Legal Counsel and each Investor in writing of the
happening of any event, as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, as a result of which the prospectus included in a Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any material, nonpublic
information), and, subject to Section 3(r), promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver ten (10) copies of the prospectus contained in such supplement or
amendment to Legal Counsel and each Investor (or such other number of copies as Legal Counsel or such Investor may reasonably request). The Company shall also promptly notify Legal Counsel, and each Investor in writing: (i) when a prospectus or any
prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to Legal Counsel and each Investor, by
facsimile on the same day of such effectiveness and by overnight mail) (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, and (iii) of the Company’s reasonable
determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate. 
  
 g. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of a Registration
Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension as soon as reasonably practicable
and to notify Legal Counsel and each Investor who holds Registrable Securities being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

  
 h. If any Investor is required under applicable securities law
to be described in the Registration Statement as an underwriter, at the reasonable request of such Investor, the Company shall furnish to such Investor, on the date of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and thereafter from time to time
on such dates as an Investor may reasonably request (i) a letter, dated such date, from the Company’s independent certified public accountants in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to
underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the Investors, and (ii) an opinion, dated as of such date, of counsel representing the Company for purposes of such Registration Statement, in form, scope and substance as is customarily
given in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the Investors. 
  

 -7 








 i. Upon the written request of any Investor in connection with any Investor’s due diligence
requirements, if any, the Company shall make available for inspection by: (i) any Investor, (ii) Legal Counsel, and (iii) one firm of accountants or other agents retained by the Investors (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all
pertinent financial and other records, and pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the “Records”), as shall be reasonably deemed necessary by each Inspector, and cause the Company’s officers,
directors and employees to supply all information which any Inspector may reasonably request; provided, however, that each Inspector shall agree in writing to hold in strict confidence and shall not make any disclosure (except to an Investor) or use
(including, without limitation, trading in the Company’s Common Stock on the basis of such Records) of any Record or other information which the Company determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which determination the Inspectors are
so notified, unless: (A) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement or is otherwise required under the 1933 Act, (B) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a
final, non-appealable subpoena or order from a court or government body of competent jurisdiction, or (C) the information in such Records has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement or any
other agreement of which the Inspector has knowledge. Each Investor agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is required or is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means,
give prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the Records deemed confidential. Nothing herein (or in any other confidentiality
agreement between the Company and any Investor) shall be deemed to limit the Investors’ ability to sell Registrable Securities in a manner which is otherwise consistent with applicable laws and regulations. 
  
 j. The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of
information concerning an Investor provided to the Company unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a
misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other final, non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, or (iv) such
information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement or any other agreement. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning an Investor is
sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt written notice to such Investor and allow such Investor, at the Investor’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure
of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information. 
  
 k.
The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to secure the listing of all of the Registrable Securities upon each national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed (subject to
official notice of issuance) and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all Registrable Securities from time to time issuable under the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Company
shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section 3(k). 
  

 -8 








 l. The Company shall cooperate with the Investors who hold Registrable Securities being offered and, to
the extent applicable, facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legend) representing the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be
in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the Investors may reasonably request and registered in such names as the Investors may request. 
  
 m. If requested by an Investor, the Company shall: (i) as soon as practicable incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such
information as an Investor reasonably requests to be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being offered or
sold, the purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering, (ii) as soon as practicable make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment, and (iii) as soon as practicable, supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement if reasonably requested by an
Investor holding any Registrable Securities. 
  
 n. The Company
shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to consummate the disposition of
such Registrable Securities. 
  
 o. The Company shall make
generally available to its security holders as soon as practical, but not later than ninety (90) days after the close of the period covered thereby, an earnings statement (in form complying with, and in the manner provided by, the provisions of Rule
158 under the 1933 Act) covering a twelve-month period beginning not later than the first day of the Company’s fiscal quarter next following the effective date of a Registration Statement. 
  
 p. The Company shall otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with
all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC in connection with any registration hereunder. 
  
 q. Within two (2) Business Days after a Registration Statement which covers Registrable Securities is ordered effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver,
to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities (with copies to the Investors whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration Statement) confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit A. 
  
 r. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, at any time after the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC, the Company may delay the disclosure of material, non-public information concerning the Company the disclosure of which at the time
is not, in the good faith opinion of the board of directors of the Company and its counsel, in the best interest of the Company and, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, 
  

 -9 








 otherwise required (a “Grace Period”); provided, that the Company shall promptly (i) notify the
Investors in writing of the existence of a Grace Period in conformity with the provisions of this Section 3(r)(provided that in each notice the Company will not disclose the content of such material, non-public information to the Investors) and the
date on which the Grace Period will begin, and (ii) notify the Investors in writing of the date on which the Grace Period ends; and, provided further, that no Grace Period shall exceed twenty (20) consecutive days and during any three hundred sixty
five (365) day period such Grace Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of thirty (30) days and the first day of any Grace Period must be at least two (2) trading days after the last day of any prior Grace Period (each, an “Allowable Grace
Period”). For purposes of determining the length of a Grace Period above, the Grace Period shall begin on and include the date the Investors receive the notice referred to in subclause (i) and shall end on and include the later of: (A) the
date the Investors receive the notice referred to in subclause (ii), or (B) the date referred to in such notice. The provisions of Section 2(f) hereof shall not be applicable during the period of any Allowable Grace Period. Upon expiration of the
Grace Period, the Company shall again be bound by the first sentence of Section 3(f) with respect to the information giving rise thereto unless such material, non-public information is no longer applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary,
the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a transferee of an Investor in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with
respect to which an Investor has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part of the applicable Registration Statement, prior to the Investor’s receipt of the notice of a Grace Period and for which
the Investor has not yet settled. 
  
 4. Obligations of the
Investors. 
  
 a. At least seven (7) Business Days prior to
the first anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Investor in writing of the information the Company requires from each such Investor if such Investor elects to have any of such Investor’s Registrable
Securities included in such Registration Statement. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of a particular Investor that
such Investor shall furnish 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 filing
and effectiveness of the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request. 
  
 b. Each Investor, by such Investor’s 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 any Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Investor has notified the Company in writing of such Investor’s election to exclude all of such
Investor’s Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement. 
  
 c. Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(g), Section 3(r) or the first sentence of 3(f), such Investor will immediately
discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement(s) covering such Registrable Securities until 
  

 -10 








 such Investor’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(g),
Section 3(r) or the first sentence of 3(f) or receipt of notice that no supplement or amendment is required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a
transferee of an Investor in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which an Investor has entered into a contract for sale prior to the Investor’s
receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(g), Section 3(r) or the first sentence of 3(f) and for which the Investor has not yet settled. 
  
 d. Each Investor covenants and agrees that it will comply with any applicable
prospectus delivery requirements of the 1933 Act as applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement. 
  
 e. Each Investor acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to the Registrable Securities, it and any Person acting on its
behalf are and will be aware of and shall comply with the SEC’s Telephone Interpretation A. 65 (July 1997) regarding short sales. 
  
 5. Expenses of Registration. 
  
 All reasonable expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant
to Sections 2 and 3, including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualifications fees, printers and accounting fees, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company shall be paid by the Company. The Company also shall reimburse
the Investors for fees and disbursements of Legal Counsel in connection with registration filing or qualification pursuant to Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement, provided that the Company shall only be required to reimburse the Investors for an
amount up to or equal to $10,000. 
  
 6. Indemnification.

  
 In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a
Registration Statement under this Agreement: 
  
 a. To the fullest
extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Investor, the directors, officers, partners, members, employees, agents, representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls any Investor
within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in
settlement or expenses, joint or several (collectively, “Claims”), incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any
court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any of them may
become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration

  

 -11 








 Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the
offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are offered, or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus if used prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement, or contained in the final
prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in the light
of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any
rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement or (iv) any material violation of this Agreement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) being,
collectively, “Violations”). Subject to Section 6(c), the Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Persons, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by
them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a) (i) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person
arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person for such Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation
of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(d), (ii) with respect to any preliminary prospectus, shall not inure to the benefit
of any such Person from whom the Person asserting any such Claim purchased the Registrable Securities that are the subject thereof (or to the benefit of any Person controlling such Person) if the untrue statement or omission of material fact
contained in the preliminary prospectus was corrected in the prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(d), and the Indemnified Person was promptly advised in
writing not to use the incorrect prospectus prior to the use giving rise to a violation and such Indemnified Person, notwithstanding such advice, used it or failed to deliver the correct prospectus as required by the 1933 Act and such correct
prospectus was timely made available pursuant to Section 3(d), (iii) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of the Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company, including
a corrected prospectus, if such prospectus or corrected prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(d), and (iv) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the
prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive
the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9. 
  
 b. In connection with any Registration Statement in which an Investor is participating, each such Investor agrees to severally and not jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same
manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 
  

 -12 








 Act (each, an “Indemnified Party”), against any Claim for Indemnified Damages to which any of them may
become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance upon
and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement; and, subject to Section 6(c), such Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall
not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of such Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, further, however, that an Investor shall
be liable under this Section 6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnity
shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(b) with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained
in the preliminary prospectus was corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus, as then amended or supplemented. 
  
 c. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding
(including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying
party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume
control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the
right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of not more than one counsel for such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified
Party, as the case may be, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or
Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. In the case of an Indemnified Person, legal counsel referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be selected by the Investors holding at least a
majority in interest of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement to which the Claim relates. The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or
defense of any such action or Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such action or Claim. The indemnifying
party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person fully apprized at all times as to the status of the 
  

 -13 








 defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of
any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written
consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such
Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such Claim or litigation. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or
Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement
of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

  
 d. The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be
made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred. 
  
 e. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the
Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law. 
  
 7. Contribution. 
  
 To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution
with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no Person involved in the sale of Registrable Securities which Person is guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) in connection with such sale shall be entitled to contribution from any Person involved in such sale of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.

  
 8. Reports Under the 1934 Act. 
  
 With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144
promulgated under the 1933 Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investors to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration (“Rule 144”), the Company agrees to:

  
 a. make and keep public information available, as those terms
are understood and defined in Rule 144; 
  

 -14 








 b. file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the
1933 Act and the 1934 Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and 
  
 c. furnish to each Investor so long as such Investor owns Registrable
Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company, if true, that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the
Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration. 
  
 9. Assignment of Registration Rights. 
  
 The rights under this Agreement shall be automatically assignable by the
Investors to any transferee of all or any portion of such Investor’s Registrable Securities if: (i) the Investor agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company
within a reasonable time after such assignment, (ii) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of: (A) the name and address of such transferee or assignee, and (B) the securities with
respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned, (iii) immediately following such transfer or assignment the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the 1933 Act and
applicable state securities laws, (iv) at or before the time the Company receives the written notice contemplated by subclause (ii) of this sentence the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions
contained in this Agreement, and (v) such transfer shall have been made in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Securities Purchase Agreement. 
  
 10. Amendment of Registration Rights. 
  
 Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either
retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and Investors who then hold at least a majority of the Registrable Securities. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 10 shall be binding upon
each Investor and the Company. No such amendment shall be effective unless it applies to all of the holders of the Registrable Securities. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any
provision of any of this Agreement unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this Agreement. 
  
 11. Miscellaneous. 
  
 a. A Person is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns or is deemed to own of record such Registrable Securities. If the
Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two or more Persons with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from the record owner of such
Registrable Securities. 
  

 -15

terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally, (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically
generated and kept on file by the sending party), or (iii) one Business Day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same. The addresses and facsimile numbers

 d. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or

jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE

hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. There are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein and therein. This Agreement, the Securities Purchase Agreement and the
instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all prior agreements and understandings among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

successors and assigns of each of the parties hereto. 
  
 g. The
headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof. 
  
 h. This Agreement may be executed in identical counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which shall constitute one and the same
agreement. This Agreement, once executed by a party, may be delivered to the other party hereto by facsimile transmission of a copy of this Agreement bearing the signature of the party so delivering this Agreement. 
  

 -17 








 i. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things,
and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the

 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
  
 We are counsel to eDiets.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and have represented the Company in connection with that
certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 12, 2004 (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), entered into by and among the Company, the selling shareholder named therein, and the buyers named therein (collectively, the
“Holders”) pursuant to which the Company and such shareholder issued to the Holders shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and the Company issued to the Holders
additional investment rights exercisable for shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Investment Rights”). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company also has entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the
Holders (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to register the resale of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), including the shares of
Common Stock sold to the Holders and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Additional Investment Rights under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”). In connection with the Company’s
obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, on                          , 2004, the Company filed a
Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-                    ) (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) relating to the Registrable Securities which names each of the Holders as a selling stockholder thereunder. 
  
 In connection with the foregoing, we advise you that a member of the SEC’s staff has advised us by telephone that the SEC has entered an order
declaring the Registration Statement effective under the 1933 Act at [ENTER TIME OF EFFECTIVENESS] on [ENTER DATE OF EFFECTIVENESS] and we have no knowledge, after telephonic inquiry of a member of the SEC’s staff, that any stop order
suspending its effectiveness has been issued or that any proceedings for that purpose are pending before, or threatened by, the SEC and the Registrable Securities are available for resale under the 1933 Act pursuant to the Registration Statement.

  
 This letter shall serve as our standing notice to you that the
Common Stock are, as of this date, freely transferable by the Holders pursuant to the Registration Statement. Unless you receive separate notice or instructions from us following the date hereof and preceding a request by a Holder for a legend-free
certificate or reissue thereof, you need not require further letters from us to effect any future legend-free issuance or reissuance of shares of Common Stock to the Holders as contemplated by the Company’s Irrevocable Transfer Agent
Instructions dated March     , 2004. This letter shall serve as our standing opinion with regard to this matter. 
  

			
	 Very truly yours,

 Annex I 
  
 SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS 
  
 The shares of common stock being offered by the selling securityholders were issued pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of April
    , 2004, and are issuable upon exercise of additional investment rights, which were also issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. For additional information regarding the issuance of these shares of common
stock and the additional investment rights, see “Private Placement of Common Shares and Additional Investment Rights” above. We are registering the shares of common stock in order to permit the selling securityholders to offer the shares
for resale from time to time. Except for the ownership of these shares of common stock and the additional investment rights, the selling securityholders have not had any material relationship with us within the past three years. 
  
 The table below lists the selling securityholders and other information
regarding the beneficial ownership of the common stock by each of the selling securityholders. The second column lists the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each selling securityholder, based on its ownership of the shares of
common stock and the additional investment rights issued pursuant to the April 2004 private placement, as of                  [    ], 2004,
assuming exercise of all of the additional investment rights held by the selling securityholders on that date, without regard to any limitations on exercise. 
  
 The third column lists the shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus by the selling securityholders. 
  
 The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the shares of Common Stock
offered by the selling securityholders pursuant to this prospectus. 
  
 Under the terms of the additional investment rights, a selling securityholder may not exercise the additional investment rights, to the extent such exercise would cause such selling securityholder, together with its affiliates, to
beneficially own a number of shares of common stock which would exceed 4.99% of our then outstanding common stock following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the additional
investment rights that have not been exercised. The number of shares in the second column does not reflect this limitation. The selling securityholders may sell all, some or none of their shares in this offering. See “Plan of
Distribution.”

	(1)	Ramius Capital Group, LLC (“Ramius Capital”) is the investment adviser of Portside Growth & Opportunity Fund (“Portside”) and consequently has voting control
and investment discretion over securities held by Portside. Ramius Capital disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares held by Portside. Peter A. Cohen, Morgan B. Stark, Thomas W. Strauss and Jeffrey M. Solomon are the sole managing members of
C4S& Co., LLC, the sole managing member of Ramius Capital. As a result, Messrs. Cohen, Stark, Strauss and Solomon may be considered beneficial owners of any shares deemed to be beneficially owned by Ramius Capital. Messrs. Cohen, Stark, Strauss
and Solomon disclaim beneficial ownership of these shares. 








 PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION 
  
 The selling securityholders may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock issued pursuant to the
April 2004 private placement or upon exercise of the additional investment rights on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The
selling securityholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares: 
  

	 	•	ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; 

  

	 	•	block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;


  

	 	•	purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; 

  

	 	•	an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; 

  

	 	•	privately negotiated transactions; 

  

	 	•	short sales; 

  

	 	•	broker-dealers may agree with the selling securityholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; 

  

	 	•	a combination of any such methods of sale; and 

  

	 	•	any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. 

  
 The selling securityholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus. 
  
 The selling securityholders may also engage in short sales against the box,
puts and calls and other transactions in our securities or derivatives of our securities and may sell or deliver shares in connection with these trades. 
  
 Broker-dealers engaged by the selling securityholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive
commissions or discounts from the selling securityholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling securityholders do not expect these commissions and discounts
to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved. Any profits on the resale of shares of common stock by a broker-dealer acting as principal might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act.
Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of shares will be borne by a selling securityholder. The selling securityholders may agree to indemnify any agent, dealer or broker-dealer that
participates in transactions involving sales of the shares if liabilities are imposed on that person under the Securities Act. 







 The selling securityholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of
the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus after we have filed
an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling securityholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling
securityholders under this prospectus. 
  
 The selling
securityholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus and may sell the
shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus after we have filed an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling securityholders to
include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling securityholders under this prospectus. 
  
 The selling securityholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares of common stock may be deemed to be
“underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares of common stock purchased by them
may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The selling securityholders have advised us that they have acquired their securities in the ordinary course of business and they have not entered into any
agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriters or broker-dealers regarding the sale of their shares of common stock, nor is there an underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with a proposed sale of shares of common
stock by any selling securityholder. If we are notified by any selling securityholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of shares of common stock, if required, we will file a supplement to this
prospectus. If the selling securityholders use this prospectus for any sale of the shares of common stock, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. 
  
 We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of
the shares of common stock. We have agreed to indemnify the selling securityholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. 
  
 The anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 may apply to sales of our common stock and activities of the selling securityholders.
