	2.	Registration. 

 (a) On or prior to the Filing Deadline, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities for an offering to be made
on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 or, if Rule 415 is not available for offers and sales of the Registrable Securities, by such other means of distribution of Registrable Securities as the Holders may reasonably specify (the “Initial
Registration Statement”). The Initial Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 (except if the Company is then ineligible to register for resale of the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, in which case such registration shall be on such
other form available to register for resale of the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering) subject to the provisions of Section 2(e) and shall contain (except if otherwise required pursuant to written comments received from the
Commission upon a review of such Registration Statement) the “Plan of Distribution” section attached hereto as Annex A. Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Section 2, in the event the Commission
informs the Company that all of the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Company agrees to promptly (i) inform each
of the holders thereof and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Initial Registration Statement as required by the Commission and/or (ii) withdraw the Initial Registration Statement and file a new registration
statement (a “New Registration Statement”), in either case covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the Commission, on Form S-3 or such other form available to register for resale the
Registrable Securities as a secondary offering; provided, however, that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, the Company shall be obligated to use its commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission
for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the SEC Guidance. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement and subject to the payment of liquidated damages in Section 2(c), if any SEC Guidance sets
forth a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Company used diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission for the
registration of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing by a Holder as to its Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will
first be reduced by Registrable Securities not acquired pursuant to the Restructuring Agreement (whether pursuant to registration rights or otherwise) and second by Registrable Securities and Other Registrable Securities on a pro rata
basis based on the sum of the Conversion Shares, the Conversion Shares (as defined in the Series A Registration Rights Agreement) and the number of shares of Registrable Common Stock held by such Holders, subject to any written determination by the
Commission that certain Holders must be reduced first. In the event the Company amends the Initial Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company will use its
commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission or SEC Guidance provided to the Company or to registrants of 

  
 4 








 
securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form S-3 or such other form available to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the
Initial Registration Statement, as amended, or the New Registration Statement (the “Remainder Registration Statements”). 
 (b) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable and, with respect to the Initial
Registration Statement or the New Registration Statement, as applicable, no later than the Effectiveness Deadline (including filing with the Commission a request for acceleration of effectiveness in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated under the
Securities Act within five (5) Business Days after the date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed,” or not be subject to
further review and the effectiveness of such Registration Statement may be accelerated). The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep each Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earlier
of (i) such time as all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been publicly sold by the Holders or (ii) the date that all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement may be sold without
restriction by the Holders under Rule 144 as determined by counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and reasonably acceptable to the Company’s transfer agent (the “Effectiveness
Period”). The Company shall request effectiveness of a Registration Statement as of 5:00 p.m. New York City time on a Trading Day. The Company shall promptly notify the Holders via facsimile or electronic mail of a “.pdf” format
data file of the effectiveness of a Registration Statement within one (1) business day of the Effective Date. The Company shall, by 9:30 a.m. New York City Time on the first Trading Day after the Effective Date, file a final Prospectus with the
Commission, as and if required by Rule 424(b). Failure to so notify the Holders on or before the second Business Day after such notification or effectiveness or failure to file a final Prospectus as aforesaid shall be deemed an Event under
Section 2(c). 
 (c) If: (i) the Initial Registration Statement is not filed with the Commission on or
prior to the Filing Deadline, (ii) the Initial Registration Statement or the New Registration Statement, as applicable, is not declared effective by the Commission (or otherwise does not become effective) for any reason on or prior to the
Effectiveness Deadline or (iii) after its Effective Date, (A) such Registration Statement ceases for any reason (including without limitation by reason of a stop order, or the Company’s failure to update the Registration Statement),
to remain continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities for which it is required to be effective or (B) the Holders are not permitted to utilize the Prospectus therein to resell such Registrable Securities, in the case of (A) and
(B), for more than an aggregate of 30 Trading Days (which need not be consecutive) (other than during an Allowable Grace Period (as defined in Section 2(e) of this Agreement)), (iv) a Grace Period (as defined in Section 2(e) of this
Agreement) exceeds the length of an Allowable Grace Period (any such failure or breach in clauses (i) through (iv) above being referred to as an “Event,” and, for purposes of clauses (i) or (ii), the date on which
such Event occurs, or for purposes of clause (iii), the date on which such 30 Trading Day period is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (iv) the date on which such Allowable Grace Period is exceeded, being referred to as an “Event
Date”), then in addition to any other rights the Holders may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Company shall pay to each Holder, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty (“Liquidated Damages”), an amount
in respect of such Holder’s Notes equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of such Notes for the first 30 days from and including such Event Date until the applicable Event is cured (which rate will be increased by an additional
0.25% per annum for each subsequent 30-day period that such Liquidated Damages continue to accrue; provided, that the rate at which such Liquidated Damages accrue may in no event exceed 2.00% per annum). The parties agree that
notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Restructuring Agreement, no Liquidated Damages shall be payable for any period after the expiration of the Effectiveness Period. All Liquidated Damages shall be paid on the same date that
interest is payable on the Notes and in the same form that PIK Interest is paid. The Liquidated Damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event. The right to receive
the Liquidated Damages under this Section 2(c) shall be the Holder’s exclusive remedy for any failure by the Company to comply with the provisions of this Section 2(c). 

  
 5 








 (d) The Company acknowledges that it has received from each Holder a
completed Selling Securityholder Questionnaire in the form of Annex B hereto on or prior to the date of the execution of this Agreement containing the information required by the Company to file the Initial Registration Statement and to name
each Holder as a selling securityholder therein. Except with respect to the filing of the Initial Registration Statement, at least ten (10) Trading Days prior to the anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement under this Agreement, the
Company will notify each Holder of any information relating to such Holder other than the information previously provided in the Selling Securityholder Questionnaire, if any, required to be included in such Registration Statement which information
shall be delivered to the Company promptly upon request and, in any event, within five (5) Trading Days prior to the applicable anticipated filing date. Each Holder acknowledges and agrees that the information in the Selling Securityholder
Questionnaire or request for further information as described in this Section 2(d) will be used by the Company in the preparation of the Registration Statement and hereby consents to the inclusion of such information in the Registration
Statement. 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time after the Registration Statement
has been declared effective by the Commission, the Company may delay the disclosure of material non-public information concerning the Company if the disclosure of such information at the time is not, in the good faith judgment of the Company, in the
best interests of the Company (a “Grace Period”); provided, however, the Company shall promptly (i) notify the Holders in writing of the existence of material non-public information giving rise to a Grace Period
(provided that the Company shall not disclose the content of such material non-public information to the Holders) or the need to file a post-effective amendment, as applicable, and the date on which such Grace Period will begin, and (ii) notify
the Holders in writing of the date on which the Grace Period ends; provided, further, that no single Grace Period shall exceed thirty (30) consecutive days, and during any three hundred sixty-five (365) day period, the aggregate of
all Grace Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of sixty (60) days (each Grace Period complying with this provision being an “Allowable Grace Period”). For purposes of determining the length of a Grace Period, the Grace Period
shall be deemed to begin on and include the date the Holders receive the notice referred to in clause (i) above and shall end on and include the later of the date the Holders receive the notice referred to in clause (ii) above and the date
referred to in such notice; provided, however, that no Grace Period shall be longer than an Allowable Grace Period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall cause the transfer agent with respect to the shares of Common
Stock or the registrar under the Indenture with respect to the Notes, to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock or Notes, as the case may be, to a transferee of a Holder in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which
a Holder has entered into a contract for sale prior to the Holder’s receipt of the notice of a Grace Period and for which the Holder has not yet settled. 
 (f) 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 and (ii) undertake to register the Registrable Securities on Form S-3 promptly after 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 Commission. 

 

	3.	Registration Procedures. 

 In connection with the Company’s registration obligations hereunder, the Company shall: 
 (a) Not less than five (5) Trading Days prior to the filing of a Registration Statement (other than the Initial Registration Statement) and not less than one (1) Trading Day prior to the filing
of any related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto (except for Annual Reports on Form 10-K, and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K and any similar or successor reports), the Company shall, furnish to the
Holder copies of such Registration Statement, Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, as proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review of such Holder (it being acknowledged and agreed that if a Holder does not object to
or comment on the aforementioned documents within such five (5) Trading Day or one (1) Trading Day period, as the case may be, then the Holder shall be deemed to have consented to and approved the use of such documents). The Company shall
not file any Registration Statement or amendment or supplement thereto in a form to which a Holder reasonably objects in good faith, provided that, the Company is notified of such objection in writing within the five (5) Trading Day or one
(1) Trading Day period described above, as applicable. 

  
 6 








 (b) (i) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments (including
post-effective amendments) and supplements, to each Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective as to the applicable Registrable Securities for
its Effectiveness Period (except during an Allowable Grace Period); (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement (subject to the terms of this Agreement), and, as so supplemented or
amended, to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (except during an Allowable Grace Period); (iii) respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any comments received from the Commission with respect to each Registration Statement or any amendment
thereto and, as promptly as reasonably possible, provide the Holders true and complete copies of all correspondence from and to the Commission relating to such Registration Statement that pertains to the Holders as “Selling
Securityholders” but not any comments that would result in the disclosure to the Holders of material and non-public information concerning the Company; and (iv) comply with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act with
respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of (subject to the terms of this Agreement) in accordance with the intended
methods of disposition by the Holders thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so supplemented; provided, however, that each Holder shall be responsible for the delivery of the Prospectus to
the Persons to whom such Holder sells any of the Registrable Securities (including in accordance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act), and each Holder agrees to dispose of Registrable Securities in compliance with the plan of distribution
described in the Registration Statement and otherwise in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. 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 Exchange Act, the Company shall have incorporated such report by reference into such
Registration Statement, if applicable, or shall file such amendments or supplements with the Commission on the same day on which the Exchange Act report which created the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement such Registration Statement
was filed. 
 (c) Notify the Holders (which notice shall, pursuant to clauses (iii) through (v) hereof,
be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite changes have been made) as promptly as reasonably practicable (and not less than two (2) Trading Days after the event described in such notice) and (if
requested by any such Person) confirm such notice in writing no later than two (2) Trading Days following the day (i)(A) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement is proposed to be
filed; (B) when the Commission notifies the Company whether there will be a “review” of such Registration Statement and whenever the Commission comments in writing on any Registration Statement (in which case the Company shall provide
to each of the Holders true and complete copies of all comments that pertain to the Holders as a “Selling Securityholder” or to the “Plan of Distribution” and all written responses thereto, but not information that the Company
believes would constitute material and non-public information); and (C) with respect to each Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (ii) of any request by the Commission or any other
Federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information, in each case, that pertains to the Holders as “Selling Securityholders” or the “Plan of
Distribution”; (iii) of the issuance by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or the
initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any
jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; and (v) of the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes the financial statements included in a Registration Statement ineligible for inclusion
therein or any statement made in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to such Registration Statement,
Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of such Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will 

  
 7 








 
not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus,
form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made), not misleading. 
 (d) Use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued, obtain the withdrawal of (i) any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or (ii) any
suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, as soon as practicable. 
 (e) If requested by a Holder, furnish to such Holder, without charge, at least one conformed copy of each Registration Statement and each amendment thereto and all exhibits to the extent requested by such
Person (including those previously furnished or incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such documents with the Commission; provided, that the Company shall have no obligation to provide any document pursuant to this clause
that is available on the Commission’s EDGAR system. 
 (f) Prior to any resale of Registrable Securities by
a Holder, use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from the registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities
for the resale by the Holder under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any Holder reasonably requests in writing, to keep each registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the
Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement; provided, that the Company shall not be
required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, subject the Company to any material tax in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or file a general consent to service of process in
any such jurisdiction. 
 (g) Unless any Registrable Securities shall be in book-entry only form, if requested by
the Holders, cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Registrable Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to the Registration Statement, which certificates shall be
free of all restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as any such Holders may reasonably request. 

(h) Following the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 3(c)(iii)-(v), as promptly as reasonably
practicable (taking into account the Company’s good faith assessment of any adverse consequences to the Company and its stockholders of the premature disclosure of such event), prepare a supplement or amendment, including a post-effective
amendment, to the affected Registration Statements or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered, no
Registration Statement nor any Prospectus will contain 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 (in the case of any Prospectus, form of
prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made), not misleading. 

(i) The Company may require each selling Holder to furnish to the Company a certified statement as to (i) the number
of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and any Affiliate thereof, (ii) any Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) affiliations, (iii) any natural persons who have the power to vote or
dispose of the Common Stock and (iv) any other information as may be requested by the Commission, FINRA or any state securities commission. During any periods that the Company is unable to meet its obligations hereunder with respect to the
registration of Registrable Securities because any Holder fails to furnish such information within three (3) Trading Days of the Company’s request, any Liquidated Damages that are accruing at such time shall be tolled and any Event that
may otherwise occur solely because of such delay shall be suspended until such information is delivered to the Company. 

  
 8 








 (j) The Company shall cooperate with the any registered broker dealer that
is required to make a filing with FINRA pursuant to NASD Rule 2710 in connection with the resale of any Registrable Securities by any Holder and pay the filing fee required for the first such filing.

under this Agreement (excluding any underwriting discounts and selling commissions) shall be borne by the Company whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the
foregoing sentence shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including, without limitation, fees and expenses (A) with respect to filings required to be made with any Trading Market on which the Common Stock

connection with an Issuer Filing, with respect to any filing that may be required to be made by any broker through which a Holder intends to make sales of Registrable Securities with FINRA pursuant to the FINRA Rule 2710, so long as the broker is
receiving no more than a customary brokerage commission in connection with such sale, (ii) printing expenses (including, without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities, if applicable, and of printing of a
reasonable number of prospectuses if the printing of prospectuses is requested by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement), (iii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (iv) fees
and disbursements of counsel for the Company, (v) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Company so desires such insurance, (vi) fees and expenses of all other Persons retained by the Company in connection with the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (vii) legal fees and expenses of one law firm retained by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in the Registration Statement, together with any separate
local counsel reasonably retained by such law firm. In addition, the Company shall be responsible for all of its internal expenses incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without
limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit and the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities on any
securities exchange as required hereunder. In no event shall the Company be responsible for any underwriting, broker or similar fees or commissions of any Holder or, except to the extent provided for in a written agreement between the Holders and
the Company, any legal fees or other costs of the Holders. 
 5. Indemnification. 

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement,
indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Holder, the officers, directors, agents, partners, members, managers, stockholders, Affiliates and employees of each of them, each Person who controls any such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of
the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, partners, members, managers, stockholders, agents and employees of each such controlling Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable costs of preparation and investigation and reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses (or actions in respect thereof) (collectively,
“Losses”), as incurred, that arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or
supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus
or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or
any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that (A) such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged
omissions are based solely upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein, (B) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 3(c)(iii)-(v),
related to the use by a Holder of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing that the Prospectus 

  
 9 








 
is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder of the Advice contemplated and defined in Section 7(d) below, but only if and to the extent that following the receipt of the
Advice the misstatement or omission giving rise to such Loss would have been corrected or (C) any such Losses arise out of the Holder’s (or any other indemnified Person’s) failure to send or give a copy of the Prospectus or supplement
(as then amended or supplemented), if required, to the Persons asserting an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of Registrable
Securities to such Person if such statement or omission was corrected in such Prospectus or supplement. The Company shall notify the Holders promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding arising from or in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement of which the Company is aware. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an Indemnified Party (as defined in Section 5(c)) and shall
survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Holders. 
 (b) Indemnification by Holders. Each
Holder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of
the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling Persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or
alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus, or any form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made)
not misleading (i) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein or
(ii) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 3(c)(iii)-(v), to the extent, but only to the extent, related to the use by such Holder of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has notified
such Holder in writing that the Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder of the Advice contemplated in Section 7(d). In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than
the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. 
 (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”), such
Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense thereof, including the employment of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not
relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or
further review) that such failure shall have materially and adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party. An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the
fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any action include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and the
Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other Indemnified Parties which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; (2) the Indemnifying Party
has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (3) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding;
or (4) the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest exists
if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying
Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party); 

  
 10 









 
provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all Indemnified Parties. The Indemnifying
Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the
Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the
subject matter of such Proceeding. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, all fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such
Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within twenty Trading Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall
promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for that portion of such fees and expenses applicable to such actions for which such Indemnified Party is finally judicially determined to not be entitled to indemnification hereunder). 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 Party under this Section 5, except to the extent that
the Indemnifying Party is materially and adversely prejudiced in its ability to defend such action. 
 (d)
Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section 5(a) or 5(b) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless for any Losses, then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying
such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in
connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying
Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be
deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, any reasonable attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been
indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in accordance with its terms. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 5(d), no Holder shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding
exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. For the purposes of this Section 5, each Person who controls any Holder
of Registrable Securities shall have the same rights to contribution as such Holder. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person
who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties and are not in diminution
or limitation of the indemnification provisions under the Restructuring Agreement. 
 6. Covenants. 

[RESERVED]. 
 7. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) Remedies. In the event of a
breach by the Company or by a Holder of any of their obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the Company, as the case may be, in addition to being 

  
 11 









 
entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company
and each Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any action for
specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. 
 (b) No Piggyback on Registrations. During the Effectiveness Period, neither the Company nor any of its security holders (other than the Holders in such capacity pursuant hereto) may include
securities of the Company in a Registration Statement other than the Registrable Securities and the Other Registrable Securities, and the Company shall not during the Effectiveness Period enter into any agreement providing any such right to any of
its security holders. The Company shall not, from the date hereof until the date that is 10 days after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement, prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its
own account under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities other than a registration statement on Form S-8 or, in connection with an acquisition, on Form S-4. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not be prohibited from
(A) preparing and filing with the Commission a registration statement contemplated by the Restructuring Agreement or (B) filing amendments to registration statements filed prior to the date of this Agreement. 

(c) Facilitation of Sales Pursuant to Rule 144 and Rule 144A. The Company covenants to the Holders of Registrable
Securities that to the extent it shall be required to do so under the Exchange Act, it shall timely file the reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act (including the reports under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the
Exchange Act referred to in subparagraph (c)(1) of Rule 144), and if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it shall upon the request of any Holder of Registrable Securities, make available such information specified by Rule
144A(d)(1) under the Securities Act. The Company further covenants to take such further action as any Holder of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable
Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitations of the exemption provided by Rule 144 and Rule 144A. Upon the request of any Holder of Registrable Securities in connection with that Holder’s sale pursuant to Rule
144 and Rule 144A, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. 
 (d) No Required Sale. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create an independent obligation on the part of any Holder to sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to any effective
Registration Statement. 
 (e) Compliance. Each Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the
prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it (unless an exemption therefrom is available) in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement and shall sell the Registrable
Securities only in accordance with a method of distribution described in the Registration Statement 
 (f)
Discontinued Disposition. By its acquisition of Registrable Securities, each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 3(c)(iii)-(v), such Holder will
forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities under a Registration Statement until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus (as it may have been supplemented
or amended) may be resumed. The Company may provide appropriate stop orders to enforce the provisions of this paragraph. 
 (g) No Inconsistent Agreements. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has entered, as of the date hereof, nor shall the Company or any of its subsidiaries, on or after the date hereof,
enter into any agreement with respect to its securities, that would have the effect of impairing the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. 

  
 12 









 (h) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement,
including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, or waived unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Company and Holders holding a majority of the then outstanding principal amount of the Notes,
provided that any party may give a waiver as to itself. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders and that does not directly or
indirectly affect the rights of other Holders may be given by Holders of all of the Registrable Securities to which such waiver or consent relates; provided, however, that the provisions of this sentence may not be amended, modified,
or supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence. 
 (i)
Notices. Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the 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 an overnight
courier service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same. The addresses and facsimile numbers for such communications shall be:

 13 









 (j) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit
of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties and shall inure to the benefit of each Holder. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or
their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations, or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. The Company may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder without
the prior written consent of the Holders holding a majority of the then outstanding principal amount of the Notes. Each Holder may assign its respective rights hereunder to any other Person so long as such other Person executes a Joinder to this
Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex C. 
 (k) Execution and Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement and shall become effective when counterparts
have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a
“.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature
were the original thereof. 
 (l) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 
 (m) Cumulative Remedies. The remedies provided
herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law. 
 (n) Severability. If any
term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain
in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their good faith reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as
that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including
any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable. 
 (o) Headings. The
headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof. 

(p) Independent Nature of Holders’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Holder under this Agreement
are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Holder hereunder, and no Holder shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Holder hereunder. The decision of each Holder to purchase or acquire the
Notes and the Conversion Shares pursuant to the Restructuring Agreement and related transaction documents has been made independently of any other Holder. Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at any closing, and
no action taken by any Holder pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holders are in any way acting in
concert with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Holder acknowledges that no other Holder has acted as agent for such Holder in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Holder will
be acting as agent of such Holder in connection with monitoring its investment in the Notes and the Conversion Shares or enforcing its rights under the Restructuring Agreement and related transaction documents. Each Holder shall be entitled to
protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this 

  
 14 









 
Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Holder to be joined as an additional party in any Proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that each of the Holders has been
provided with the same Registration Rights Agreement for the purpose of closing a transaction with multiple Holders and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Holder.

 Annex A 
 PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION 
 We are registering the 10% Series B Convertible
Senior Secured Notes due 2015 (including guarantees attached thereto), which we refer to herein as the “Notes”, issued to the selling securityholders, shares of Common Stock issuable to the selling securityholders upon conversion of the
Notes or otherwise issued or issuable to the selling securityholders pursuant to the terms of the Indenture to permit the resale of the Notes and such shares of Common Stock by the holders of the shares of Common Stock and the Notes from time to
time after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the selling securityholders of the Notes or the shares of Common Stock. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the
Notes and the shares of Common Stock. 
 The selling securityholders may sell all or a portion of the Notes and/or the shares of
Common Stock beneficially owned by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the Notes or the shares of Common Stock are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the
selling securityholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions. The shares of Common Stock may be sold on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed
or quoted at the time of sale, in the over-the-counter market or in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market and in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time
of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or block transactions. 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; 


  

	 	•	 	 settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;



  

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



  

	 	•	 	 through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise;



  

	 	•	 	 a combination of any such methods of sale; and 


  

	 	•	 	 any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. 


 The selling securityholders also may resell all or a portion of the Notes and/or the shares of Common Stock in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act or 1933, as
amended, which we refer to herein as the Securities Act, as permitted by that rule, or Section 4(1) under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements
of those provisions. 
 Broker-dealers engaged by the selling securityholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to
participate in sales. If the selling securityholders effect such transactions by selling Notes or shares of Common Stock to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the
form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling securityholders or commissions from purchasers of the Notes and/or the shares of Common Stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal. Such commissions will
be in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction will not be in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a
principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440. 

  
 A-1









 In connection with sales of the Notes and/or the shares of Common Stock or otherwise, the
selling securityholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of Common Stock in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The selling
securityholders may also sell shares of Common Stock short and if such short sale shall take place after the date that the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part is declared effective by the Commission, the selling
securityholders may deliver shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus to close out short positions and to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales. The selling securityholders may also loan or pledge shares of Common Stock
to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such shares, to the extent permitted by applicable law. The selling securityholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one
or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus
(as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the selling securityholders have been advised that they may not use shares registered on the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part to
cover short sales of our common stock made prior to the date such registration statement has been declared effective by the SEC. 
 The selling securityholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Notes or 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 Notes and/or the shares of Common Stock from time to time pursuant to this prospectus or any amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable
provision of the Securities Act, amending, if necessary, 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 and donate the Notes and/or the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus. 

The selling securityholders and any broker-dealer or agents participating in the distribution of the shares of Common Stock may be deemed
to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions paid, or any discounts or concessions allowed to, any such broker-dealer or agent and any
profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Selling securityholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the
Securities Act will be subject to the applicable prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act and may be subject to certain statutory liabilities of, including but not limited to, Sections 11, 12 and 17 of the Securities Act and
Rule 10b-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which we refer to herein as the Exchange Act. 
 Each
selling securityholder has informed the Company that it is not a registered broker-dealer and does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Notes or the Common Stock. Upon the
Company being notified in writing by a selling securityholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of Notes and/or Common Stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or
secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such selling securityholder and of the
participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such the shares of Common Stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where
applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In no event shall any
broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups, which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%). 
 Under the
securities laws of some states, the Notes and/or the shares of Common Stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the Notes and/or the shares of Common Stock may not be sold
unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with. 

  
 A-2









 There can be no assurance that any selling securityholder will sell any or all of the Notes
or the shares of Common Stock registered pursuant to the shelf registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part. 

Each selling securityholder and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, to the extent applicable, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of Common Stock by the selling
securityholder and any other participating person. To the extent applicable, Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the Notes and/or the shares of Common Stock to engage in market-making activities
with respect to the Notes and/or the shares of Common Stock. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the Notes and the shares of Common Stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to
the Notes or the shares of Common Stock. 
 We will pay all expenses of the registration of the Notes and the shares of Common
Stock pursuant to the registration rights agreement, including, without limitation, Securities and Exchange Commission filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws; provided, however, that
each selling securityholder will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any. We will indemnify the selling securityholders against certain liabilities, including some liabilities under the Securities Act, in accordance with the
registration rights agreement, or the selling securityholders will be entitled to contribution. We may be indemnified by the selling securityholders against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act that may arise from any
written information furnished to us by the selling securityholders specifically for use in this prospectus, in accordance with the related registration rights agreements, or we may be entitled to contribution.

*********** 
 The undersigned
agrees to promptly notify the Company of any inaccuracies or changes in the information provided herein that may occur subsequent to the date hereof and prior to the effective date of any applicable Resale Registration Statement. All notices
hereunder and pursuant to the Agreement shall be made in writing, by hand delivery, confirmed or facsimile transmission, first-class mail or air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery at the address set forth below. In the absence of any such
notification, the Company shall be entitled to continue to rely on the accuracy of the information in this Notice and Questionnaire. 
 The
undersigned hereby acknowledges its obligations under the Agreement to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and certain other persons as set forth in the Agreement. 
 By signing below, the undersigned consents to the disclosure of the information contained herein in its answers to Items (1) through (6) above and the inclusion of such information in the Resale
Registration Statement and the Prospectus. The undersigned understands that such information will be relied upon by the Company in connection with the preparation or amendment of any such Registration Statement and the Prospectus. 

By signing below, the undersigned acknowledges that it understands its obligation to comply, and agrees that it will comply, with the provisions of the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, particularly Regulation M in connection with any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Resale Registration Statement. The undersigned also acknowledges that it understands that the
answers to this Questionnaire are furnished for use in connection with Registration Statements filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement and any amendments or supplements thereto filed with the Commission pursuant to the Securities Act.

 The undersigned hereby acknowledges and is advised of the following Interpretation A.65 of the July 1997 SEC Manual of Publicly Available
Telephone Interpretations regarding short selling: 
 “An Issuer filed a Form S-3 registration statement for a secondary offering of
common stock which is not yet effective. One of the selling securityholders wanted to do a short sale of common stock “against the box” and cover the short sale with registered shares after the effective date. The issuer was advised that
the short sale could not be made before the registration statement become effective, because the shares underlying the short sale are deemed to be sold at the time such sale is made. There would, therefore, be a violation of Section 5 if the
shares were effectively sold prior to the effective date.” 
 By returning this Questionnaire, the undersigned will be deemed to be
aware of the foregoing interpretation. 
 I confirm that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the foregoing statements (including without
limitation the answers to this Questionnaire) are correct. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF the undersigned, by authority duly given, has caused this
Questionnaire to be executed and delivered either in person or by its duly authorized agent.
