REGISTRATION RIGHTS
Section II.01.Demand Registration.
(a)Demand by a Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor.  At any time following the Effectiveness Date if there is no currently effective Shelf Registration Statement on file with the SEC, any Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor (such Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor, a “Demand Party”) may, subject to Section 2.11, make a written request (a “Demand Notice”) to the Company for Registration of all or part of the Registrable Securities held by such Demand Party (i) on Form S-1 (a “Long-Form Registration”) or (ii) on Form S-3 (a “Short-Form Registration”) if the Company qualifies to use such short form (any such requested Long-Form Registration or Short-Form Registration, a “Demand Registration”).  Each Demand Notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities of the Demand Party to be registered and the intended methods of disposition thereof.  Subject to Section 2.11, after delivery of such Demand Notice, the Company (A) shall file promptly (and, in any event, within (I) ninety (90) days in the case of a request for a Long-Form Registration or (II) thirty (30) days in the case of a request for a Short-Form Registration, in each case, following delivery of such Demand Notice) with the SEC a Registration Statement relating to such Demand Registration (a “Demand Registration Statement”), and (B) shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Demand Registration Statement to promptly be declared effective under (I) the Securities Act and (II) the “Blue Sky” laws of such jurisdictions as any Participating Holder or any underwriter, if any, reasonably requests.
(b)Demand Withdrawal.  A Demand Party may withdraw its Registrable Securities from a Demand Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of the applicable Demand Registration Statement.  Upon delivery of a notice by the Demand Party to such effect, the Company shall cease all efforts to secure effectiveness of the applicable Demand Registration Statement, and such Registration shall not be deemed to be a Demand Registration with respect to such Demand Party for purposes of Section 2.11.
(c)Effective Registration.  The Company shall be deemed to have effected a Demand Registration with respect to the applicable Demand Party for purposes of Section 2.11 if the Demand Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC and remains effective for 
8






not less than two hundred seventy (270) days (or such shorter period as shall terminate when all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold or withdrawn), or if such Registration Statement relates to an Underwritten Offering, such longer period as, in the opinion of counsel for the underwriter or underwriters, a Prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales of Registrable Securities by an underwriter or dealer (the applicable period, the “Demand Period”).  No Demand Registration shall be deemed to have been effected for purposes of Section 2.11 if (i) during the Demand Period such Registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other governmental agency or court, (ii) the conditions to closing specified in the underwriting agreement, if any, entered into in connection with such Registration are not satisfied other than by reason of a wrongful act, misrepresentation or breach of such applicable underwriting agreement by a Demand Party or (iii) there is a Demand Suspension (as defined below) or a demand withdrawal pursuant to Section 2.01(b).
(d)Demand Company Notice.  Subject to Section 2.11, promptly upon delivery of any Demand Notice (but in no event more than three (3) Business Days thereafter), the Company shall deliver a written notice (a “Demand Company Notice”) of any such Registration request to all Holders (other than the Demand Party), and the Company shall include in such Demand Registration all such Registrable Securities of such Holders which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within five (5) Business Days after the date that such Demand Company Notice has been delivered.  All requests made pursuant to this Section 2.01(e) shall specify the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities of such Holder to be registered.
(e)Delay in Filing; Suspension of Registration.  If the Company shall furnish to the Participating Holders a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer or equivalent senior executive officer of the Company stating that the filing, effectiveness or continued use of a Demand Registration Statement would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure, then the Company may delay the filing (but not the preparation of) or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, the Demand Registration Statement (a “Demand Suspension”); provided, however, that the Company, unless otherwise approved in writing by the Tiptree Investors and Warburg Investors, shall not be permitted to exercise aggregate Demand Suspensions and Shelf Suspensions more than once for more than an aggregate of thirty (30) days during any six (6) month period; provided, further, that in the event of a Demand Suspension, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any Demand Registration Statement to be filed, declared effective and/or made available for continued use as soon as possible.  Each Participating Holder shall keep confidential the fact that a Demand Suspension is in effect, the certificate referred to above and its contents (provided that in no event shall the Company include any material non-public information in such communications) unless and until otherwise notified by the Company, except (i) for disclosure to such Participating Holder’s Affiliates and its and their respective employees, agents and professional advisers who reasonably need to know such information for purposes of assisting the Participating Holder with respect to its investment in the Company Shares and agree to keep it confidential, (ii) if and to the extent such matters are publicly disclosed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Person that, to the actual knowledge of such Participating Holder, was not subject to an obligation or duty of 
9






confidentiality to the Company and its Subsidiaries and (iii) if such Participating Holder is advised by counsel that disclosure is required by law, rule or regulation.  In the case of a Demand Suspension, the Participating Holders agree to suspend use of the applicable Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in connection with any sale or purchase of, or offer to sell or purchase, Registrable Securities, upon delivery of the notice referred to above.  The Company shall immediately notify the Participating Holders upon the termination of any Demand Suspension, amend or supplement the Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, if necessary, so it does not contain any untrue statement or omission and furnish to the Participating Holders such numbers of copies of the Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus as so amended or supplemented as the Participating Holders may reasonably request.  The Company agrees to supplement or make amendments to the Demand Registration Statement if required by the registration form used by the Company for the applicable Registration or by the instructions applicable to such registration form or by the Securities Act or the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, or as may reasonably be requested by any Demand Party.
(f)Underwritten Offering.  If a Demand Party so requests, an offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration shall be in the form of an Underwritten Offering, and such Demand Party shall have the right to select the managing underwriter or underwriters to administer the offering; provided that such underwriter or underwriters shall be a nationally recognized investment bank reasonably acceptable to the Company.  If the Demand Party intends to sell the Registrable Securities covered by its demand by means of an Underwritten Offering, such Demand Party shall so advise the Company as part of its Demand Notice, and the Company shall include such information in the Demand Company Notice.
(g)Priority of Securities Registered Pursuant to Demand Registrations.  The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the managing underwriter or underwriters of an Underwritten Offering of the Registrable Securities to permit Investors that have requested a Demand Registration to include in such Demand Registration all Registerable Securities so requested by such Demand Party.  If the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering of the Registrable Securities included in a Demand Registration advise the Board of Directors in writing that, in its or their opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a significant adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the market for the securities offered, the securities to be included in such Demand Registration (i) first, shall be allocated pro rata among the Investors that have requested to participate in such Demand Registration based on the number of Registrable Securities then held by each such Investor relative to the number of Registrable Securities then held by all Investors (provided that any securities thereby allocated to an Investor that exceed such Investor’s request shall be reallocated among the remaining requesting Investors in like manner), (ii) second, and only if all the securities referred to in clause (i) have been included in such Registration, shall be allocated pro rata among the Holders (excluding the Investors, as applicable) that have requested to participate in such Demand Registration based on the relative number of Registrable Securities then held by each such Holder (provided that any securities thereby allocated to a Holder that exceed such Holder’s request shall be reallocated among the remaining requesting Holders in like manner), (iii) third, and only if all the securities 
10






referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) have been included in such Registration, the number of securities that the Company proposes to include in such Registration that, in the opinion of the managing underwriter or underwriters, can be sold without having such adverse effect and (iv) fourth, and only if all of the securities referred to in clause (iii) have been included in such Registration, any other securities eligible for inclusion in such Registration that, in the opinion of the managing underwriter or underwriters, can be sold without having such adverse effect.  
Section II.02.Shelf Registration.
(a)Filing.
(i)At any time following the Effectiveness Date, subject to Section 2.11, the Tiptree Investors and the Warburg Investors shall each have the right to deliver a written notice to the Company, which notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities held by such Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor to be covered by a Shelf Registration Statement and the intended methods of distribution thereof (the “S-3 Shelf Notice” and such Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor, the “Initial S-3 Holders”).  Following delivery of the S-3 Shelf Notices, the Company (x) shall file promptly (and, in any event, within thirty (30) days of receipt of the S-3 Shelf Notices with the SEC) such Shelf Registration Statement (which shall be an automatic Shelf Registration Statement if the Company qualifies at such time to file such a Shelf Registration Statement) relating to the offer and sale of all Registrable Securities requested for inclusion therein by the Initial S-3 Holders and, to the extent requested under (c), the other Holders from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by such Holders (to the extent permitted in this Section 2.02) and set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and (y) shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be promptly declared effective under the Securities Act (including upon the filing thereof if the Company qualifies to file an automatic Shelf Registration Statement); provided, however, that if the Tiptree Investors or Warburg Investors reasonably believe that the Company will become S-3 eligible and the Tiptree Investors or Warburg Investors, as applicable, delivers a S-3 Shelf Notice following the IPO but prior to the S-3 Eligibility Date, the Company shall not be obligated to file (but shall be obligated to prepare) such Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 until the later of (i) the S-3 Eligibility Date and (ii) thirty (30) days of receipt of the S-3 Shelf Notice.
(ii)Subject to the right to deliver a Shelf Notice in the manner contemplated by the first proviso below, at any time following Effective Date, to the extent that the Company is not eligible to file or maintain a Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 as contemplated by (i), any Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor (such Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor, the “Initiating Holder”) may, subject to Section 2.11, make a written request to the Company to file a Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-1 (a “Shelf Notice”), which Shelf Notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities of the Initiating Holder to be registered therein and the intended methods of distribution thereof.  Following the delivery of a Shelf Notice, the Company (x) shall file promptly (and, in any event, within sixty (60) days following delivery of such Shelf Notice) with 
11






the SEC such Shelf Registration Statement relating to the offer and sale of all Registrable Securities requested for inclusion therein by the Initiating Holder and, to the extent requested under Section 2.02(c), the other Holders from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by such Holders (to the extent permitted in this Section 2.02) and set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and (y) shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be promptly declared effective under the Securities Act; provided, however, that any such Shelf Registration Statement request shall be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 2.11, a Demand Registration effected by the Initiating Holder and subject to the limitations set forth therein.  If, on the date of any such request the Company does not qualify to file a Shelf Registration Statement under the Securities Act, the provisions of this Section 2.02 shall not apply, and the provisions of Section 2.01 shall apply instead.
(b)Continued Effectiveness.  The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep any Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2.02(a) continuously effective under the Securities Act in order to permit the Prospectus forming a part thereof to be usable by Shelf Holders until the earliest of (i) the date as of which all Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement or another Registration Statement filed under the Securities Act (but in no event prior to the applicable period referred to in Section 4(a)(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder), and (ii)  such shorter period as the Initiating Investor or Initial S-3 Holder, as applicable, with respect to such Shelf Registration shall agree in writing (such period of effectiveness, the “Shelf Period”).  Subject to Section 2.02(d), the Company shall not be deemed to have used its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the Shelf Period if the Company voluntarily takes any action or omits to take any action that would result in Shelf Holders not being able to offer and sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement during the Shelf Period, unless such action or omission is (x) a Shelf Suspension permitted pursuant to Section 2.02(d) or (y) required by applicable law, rule or regulation.
(c)Company Notices.  Promptly upon delivery of any Shelf Notice pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(a)(ii) (but in no event more than five (5) Business Days thereafter), the Company shall deliver a written notice of such Shelf Notice to the Investors (other than the Initiating Holder) and the Company shall include in such Shelf Registration all such Registrable Securities of such other Investors which the Company has received a written request for inclusion therein within three (3) Business Days after such written notice is delivered to such other Investors.  Promptly after (i) delivery of any such written request by the other Investors or (ii) after delivery of the S-3 Shelf Notices pursuant to Section 2.02(a) (but in no event more than five (5) Business Days after delivery of the S-3 Shelf Notices or the Shelf Notice, as applicable), the Company shall deliver a written notice of the S-3 Shelf Notices or the Shelf Notice, as applicable, to all Holders other than the Investors (which notice shall specify the Pro Rata Investor Shelf Percentage applicable to such Shelf Registration) and the Company shall include in such Shelf Registration all such Registrable Securities of such Holders which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within ten (10) Business Days after such written notice is delivered to such Holders (each such Holder delivering such a request and the other Investors if Participating Investors, together with the Initiating Holder or Initial S-3 Holder, 
12






if applicable, a “Shelf Holder”); provided, that, the Company shall not include in such Shelf Registration Registrable Securities of any Holder (other than an Investor) in an amount in excess of such Holder’s Pro Rata Shelf Percentage.  If the Company is permitted by applicable law, rule or regulation to add selling stockholders to a Shelf Registration Statement without filing a post-effective amendment, a Holder may request the inclusion of an amount of such Holder’s Registrable Securities not to exceed, in the case of a Holder that is not an Investor, such Holder’s Pro Rata Shelf Percentage in such Shelf Registration Statement at any time or from time to time after the filing of a Shelf Registration Statement, and the Company shall add such Registrable Securities to the Shelf Registration Statement as promptly as reasonably practicable, and such Holder shall be deemed a Shelf Holder.
(d)Suspension of Registration.  If the Company shall furnish to the Shelf Holders a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer or equivalent senior executive officer of the Company stating that the continued use of a Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2.02(a) would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure, then the Company may suspend use of the Shelf Registration Statement (a “Shelf Suspension”); provided, however, that the Company, unless otherwise approved in writing by the Tiptree Investors and the Warburg Investors, shall not be permitted to exercise aggregate Demand Suspensions and Shelf Suspensions more than once for more than an aggregate of thirty (30) days during any six (6)-month period; provided further that in the event of a Shelf Suspension, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any Shelf Registration Statement to be made available for continued use as soon as possible.  Each Shelf Holder shall keep confidential the fact that a Shelf Suspension is in effect, the certificate referred to above and its contents (provided that in no event shall the Company include any material non-public information in such communications)  unless and until otherwise notified by the Company, except (i) for disclosure to such Shelf Holder’s Affiliates and its and their respective employees, agents and professional advisers who reasonably need to know such information for purposes of assisting the Holder with respect to its investment in the Company Shares and agree to keep it confidential, (ii) if and to the extent such matters are publicly disclosed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Person that, to the actual knowledge of such Shelf Holder, was not subject to an obligation or duty of confidentiality to the Company and its Subsidiaries and (iii) if such Shelf Holder is advised by counsel that disclosure is required by law, rule or regulation.  In the case of a Shelf Suspension, the Holders agree to suspend use of the applicable Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in connection with any sale or purchase of, or offer to sell or purchase, Registrable Securities, upon delivery of the notice referred to above.  The Company shall immediately notify the Shelf Holders upon the termination of any Shelf Suspension, amend or supplement the Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, if necessary, so it does not contain any untrue statement or omission and furnish to the Shelf Holders such numbers of copies of the Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus as so amended or supplemented as the Shelf Holders may reasonably request.  The Company agrees to supplement or make amendments to the Shelf Registration Statement if required by the registration form used by the Company for the applicable Registration or by the instructions applicable to such registration form or by the Securities Act or the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, or as may reasonably be requested by any Initial S-3 Holder or Initiating Holder.

(e)Shelf Take-Downs.
(i)An offering or sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement (each, a “Shelf Take-Down”) may be initiated only by a Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor (an “Initiating Shelf Take-Down Holder”).
(ii)Subject to Section 2.11, if the Initiating Shelf Take-Down Holder elects by written request to the Company, a Shelf Take-Down shall be in the form of an Underwritten Offering (an “Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice”) and the Company shall amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement for such purpose as soon as practicable.  Such Initiating Shelf Take-Down Holder shall have the right to select the managing underwriter or underwriters to administer such offering; provided, that such managing underwriter or underwriters are nationally recognized investment bank(s) reasonably acceptable to the Company.  The provisions of Section 2.01(g) shall apply to any Underwritten Offering pursuant to this Section 2.02(e). 
(iii)If the plan of distribution set forth in any Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice includes a customary “road show” (including an “electronic road show”) or other substantial marketing effort by the Company and the underwriters over a period expected to exceed forty-eight (48) hours (a “Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down”), promptly upon delivery of such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice (but in no event more than three (3) Business Days thereafter), the Company shall deliver a written notice (a “Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice”) of such Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down to all Shelf Holders (other than the Initiating Shelf Take-Down Holder), and the Company shall include in such Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down all such Registrable Securities of such Shelf Holders that are Registered on such Shelf Registration Statement for which the Company has received written requests, which requests must specify the aggregate amount of such Registrable Securities of such Holder to be offered and sold pursuant to such Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down, for inclusion therein within five (5) Business Days after the date that such Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice has been delivered. If the plan of distribution set forth in any Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice includes a customary “road show” (including an “electronic road show”) by the Company and the underwriters over a period expected to be less than forty-eight (48) hours (a “Non-Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down” and, together with a Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down, “Underwritten Shelf Take-Downs”), concurrently with the delivery of such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice, the Initiating Shelf Take-Down Holder shall deliver a written notice (a “Non-Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice”) of such Non-Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down to the Investors (other than the Initiating Shelf Take-Down Holder), and the Company shall include in such Non-Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down all such Registrable Securities of such Investors that are Registered on such Shelf Registration Statement for which the Company has received written requests, which requests must specify the aggregate amount of such Registrable Securities of such Investor to be offered and sold pursuant to such Non-Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down, for inclusion therein within twenty-four (24) hours after such Non-Marketed 
14






Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice has been delivered; provided, that any Investor’s participation in such Non-Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down is conditioned on such Investor reasonably cooperating with the Initiating Shelf Take-Down Holder with respect thereto and taking any and all actions as may be reasonably necessary so that the Investor may participate in the Non-Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down on the timeline set-forth in the Non-Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice or otherwise proposed by the Initiating Shelf Take-Down Holder.  In the event that an Investor’s participation in a Non-Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down would materially and adversely impact or delay (it being agreed that time is of the essence with respect thereto) the Non-Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down, the Initiating Shelf Take-Down Holder shall have the right, in its reasonable discretion, to reject any written request received by the Company from an Investor to be included in a Non-Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down and the Company shall remove the Registrable Securities of such Investor to be offered and sold pursuant to such Non-Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down.
Section II.03.Piggyback Registration.
(a)Participation.  If the Company at any time proposes to file a Registration Statement with respect to any offering of its equity securities for its own account or for the account of any other Persons (other than  a Registration under Section 2.01 or Section 2.02, it being understood that this clause (i) does not limit the rights of Holders to make written requests pursuant to Section 2.01 or Section 2.02 or otherwise limit the applicability thereof,  a Registration Statement on Form S-4 or S-8 (or such other similar successor forms then in effect under the Securities Act),  a registration of securities solely relating to an offering and sale to employees, directors or consultants of the Company or its Subsidiaries pursuant to any employee stock plan or other employee benefit plan arrangement,  a registration not otherwise covered by clause (ii) above pursuant to which the Company is offering to exchange its own securities for other securities,   a Registration Statement relating solely to dividend reinvestment or similar plans or   a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to which only the initial purchasers and subsequent transferees of debt securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that are convertible or exchangeable for Company Shares and that are initially issued pursuant to Rule 144A and/or Regulation S (or any successor provisions) of the Securities Act may resell such notes and sell the Company Shares into which such notes may be converted or exchanged), then, (A) as soon as practicable (but in no event less than thirty (30) days prior to the proposed date of filing of such Registration Statement), the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to the Investors, and such notice shall offer each Investor the opportunity to Register under such Registration Statement such number of Registrable Securities as such Investor may request in writing delivered to the Company within ten (10) days of delivery of such written notice by the Company, and (B) subject to Section 2.03(c), as soon as practicable after the expiration of such ten (10)-day period (but in no event less than fifteen (15) days prior to the proposed date of filing of such Registration Statement), the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to the Holders (other than the Investors), and such notice shall offer each such Holder the opportunity to Register under such Registration Statement such number of Registrable Securities as such Holder may request in writing within ten (10) days of 
15

Subject to Section 2.03(b) and (c), the Company shall include in such Registration Statement all such Registrable Securities that are requested by Holders to be included therein in compliance with the immediately foregoing sentence (a “Piggyback Registration”); provided that if at any time after giving written notice of its intention to Register any equity securities and prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement filed in connection with such Piggyback Registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to Register or to delay Registration of the equity securities covered by such Piggyback Registration, the Company shall give written notice of such determination to each Holder that had requested to Register its, his or her Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement and, thereupon, (1) in the case of a determination not to Register, shall be relieved of its obligation to Register any Registrable Securities in connection with such Registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses in connection therewith), without prejudice, however, to the rights of the Tiptree Investors or the Warburg Investors to request that such Registration be effected as a Demand Registration under Section 2.01, and (2) in the case of a determination to delay Registering, in the absence of a request by the Tiptree Investors or the Warburg Investors to request that such Registration be effected as a Demand Registration under Section 2.01, shall be permitted to delay Registering any Registrable Securities, for the same period as the delay in Registering the other equity securities covered by such Piggyback Registration.  If the offering pursuant to such Registration Statement is to be underwritten the Company shall have the right to select the managing underwriter or underwriters to administer such offering; provided, that such underwriter is reasonably acceptable to Holders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities participating in such Underwritten Offering, the Company shall so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant this (a), and each Holder making a request for a Piggyback Registration pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) must, and the Company shall make such arrangements with the managing underwriter or underwriters so that each such Holder may, participate in such Underwritten Offering, subject to the conditions of Section 2.03(b) and (c).  If the offering pursuant to such Registration Statement is to be on any other basis, the Company shall so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to this Section 2.03(a), and each Holder making a request for a Piggyback Registration pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) must, and the Company shall make such arrangements so that each such Holder may, participate in such offering on such basis, subject to the conditions of Section 2.03(b) and (c).  Each Holder shall be permitted to withdraw all or part of its Registrable Securities from a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to execution of the underwriting agreement in connection with such Piggyback Registration.
(b)Priority of Piggyback Registration.  The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the managing underwriter or underwriters of a Underwritten Offering of the Registrable Securities included in a Piggyback Registration to permit Holders that have requested to be included in such Piggyback Registration to include in such Piggyback Registration all Registerable Securities so requested by such Holder.  If the managing underwriter or underwriters of any proposed Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities included in a Piggyback Registration informs the Company and the Holders that have requested to participate in such Piggyback Registration in writing that, in its or their opinion, the number of securities which such Holders and any other Persons intend to include in such offering exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a significant adverse 
16






effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the market for the securities offered, then the securities to be included in such Registration shall be (i) first, 100% of the securities that the Company or (subject to Section 2.07) any Person (other than a Holder) exercising a contractual right to demand Registration, as the case may be, proposes to sell, (ii) second, and only if all the securities referred to in clause (i) have been included, the number of Registrable Securities that, in the opinion of such managing underwriter or underwriters, can be sold without having such adverse effect in such Registration, which such number shall be allocated pro rata among the Investors that have requested to participate in such Registration based on the relative number of Registrable Securities then held by each such Investor (provided that any securities thereby allocated to an Investor that exceed such Investor’s request shall be reallocated among the remaining requesting Investors in like manner), (iii) third, and only if all the securities referred to in clause (ii) have been included, the number of Registrable Securities that, in the opinion of such managing underwriter or underwriters, can be sold without having such adverse effect in such Registration, which such number shall be allocated pro rata among the Holders (excluding the Investors) that have requested to participate in such Registration based on the relative number of Registrable Securities then held by each such Holder (provided that any securities thereby allocated to a Holder that exceed such Holder’s request shall be reallocated among the remaining requesting Holders in like manner) and (iv) fourth, and only if all of the Registrable Securities referred to in clause (iii) have been included in such Registration, any other securities eligible for inclusion in such Registration that, in the opinion of the managing underwriter or underwriters, can be sold without having such adverse effect in such Registration.
(c)No Effect on Demand Registrations.  No Registration of Registrable Securities effected pursuant to a request under this Section 2.03 shall be deemed to have been effected pursuant to Section 2.01 or Section 2.02 or shall relieve the Company of its obligations under Section 2.01 or Section 2.02.
Section II.04.Black-out Periods.
(a)Black-out Periods for Holders.  In the event of an IPO, each of the Holders (including, without limitation, the Tiptree Investors and the Warburg Investors) agrees, if requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters in such Underwritten Offering, not to (1) offer for sale, sell, pledge, or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could be expected to, result in the disposition by any Person at any time in the future of) any Company Shares (including Company Shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and Company Shares that may be issued upon exercise of any options or warrants) or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Company Shares, (2) enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of Company Shares, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Company Shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise, but excluding, in the case of (1) and (2), any pledge, encumbrance or similar transaction of any Company Shares in connection with a bona fide financing transaction and any exercise of remedies by the lender in such transaction or a subsequent transaction (including any

The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Company Shares (or other securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of the period referenced above.

In the case of an offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.01 or Section 2.02 that is a Marketed Underwritten Offering, the Company and each of the Holders (including, without limitation, the Tiptree Investors and the Warburg Investors) agree, if requested by a Participating Tiptree Investor, or Participating Warburg Investor or the managing underwriter or underwriters with respect to such Marketed Underwritten Offering, not to (1) offer for sale, sell, pledge, or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could be expected to, result in the disposition by any Person at any time in the future of) any Company Shares (including Company Shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and Company Shares that may be issued upon exercise of any options or warrants) or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Company Shares, (2) enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of Company Shares, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Company Shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise but excluding, in the case of (1) and (2), any pledge, encumbrance or similar transaction of any Company Shares in connection with a bona fide financing transaction and any exercise of remedies by the lender in such transaction or a subsequent transaction (including any transaction contemplated by clause (1) or (2)) following the time such lender (or any of its designees) takes possession of any Company Shares, (3) make any demand for or exercise any right or cause to be filed a Registration Statement, including any amendments thereto, with respect to the registration of any Company Shares or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Company Shares or any other securities of the Company (other than as permitted pursuant to  Section 2.01 or Section 2.02) or (4) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing prohibited actions (other than as permitted pursuant to Section 2.01 or Section 2.02), in each case, during the period beginning seven (7) days before, and ending ninety (90) days (or such lesser period as may be agreed by a Participating Tiptree Investor or Participating Warburg 
18






Investor and the managing underwriter or underwriters, each such period or the IPO Black-Out Period, a “Black-Out Period”)) after, the date of the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with such Marketed Underwritten Offering, to the extent timely notified in writing by a Participating Tiptree Investor or Participating Warburg Investor or the managing underwriter or underwriters, as the case may be; provided that, without limiting the right of an underwriter to release any investor from any such requirements of restrictions, no Holder shall be subject to any such Black-Out Period of longer duration than that applicable to any Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may effect a public sale or distribution of securities of the type described above and during the periods described above if such sale or distribution is made pursuant to Registrations on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor form to such Forms or as part of any Registration of securities for offering and sale to employees, directors or consultants of the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to any employee stock plan or other employee benefit plan arrangement.  The Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain from each of its directors and officers and each other holder of restricted securities of the Company which securities are the same as or similar to the Registrable Securities being Registered, or any restricted securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any of such securities, an agreement not to effect any public sale or distribution of such securities during any such period referred to in this paragraph, except as part of any such Registration, if permitted.  Without limiting the foregoing (but subject to Section 2.07), if after the date hereof the Company or any of its Subsidiaries grants any Person (other than a Holder) any rights to demand or participate in a Registration, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, provide that the agreement with respect thereto shall include such Person’s agreement to comply with any Black-Out Period required by this Section 2.04 as if it were a Holder hereunder.

19






commencement of the Black-Out Period (and, if not, then the provisions of Section 2.04(a) shall remain in place); and 
(ii)if, beginning at the commencement of the second (2nd) Trading Day after the date on which the last reported closing price of the Common Stock on the exchange on which the Common Stock is listed is at least thirty-three percent (33%) greater than the IPO price per share set forth on the cover page of the applicable Prospectus for any ten (10) Trading Days out of a fifteen (15)-consecutive full Trading Day period ending on or after the closing of the first full Trading Day immediately after the Company publicly announces its earnings results for the quarterly period during which the IPO occurred, in which case, to fifteen percent (15%) of the Company Shares beneficially owned by each Investor as of the date hereof, before giving effect to any sales of Common Stock by the Tiptree Investors or Warburg Investors to the underwriters, if any, pursuant to an underwriting agreement, shall be released from the IPO Black-Out Period.

The Company is not currently a party to, and shall not hereafter enter into without the prior written consent of the Tiptree Investors and the Warburg Investors, any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders by this Agreement, including allowing any other holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company (a) registration rights in the nature or substantially in the nature of those set forth in Section 2.01, Section 2.02 or Section 2.03 that would have priority over or pari passu with the Registrable Securities with respect to the inclusion of such securities in any Registration (except to the extent such registration rights are solely related to registrations of the type contemplated by Section 2.03(a)(ii) through (iv)) or Section 2.03(b) demand registration rights in the nature or substantially in the nature of those set forth in Section 2.01 or Section 2.02 that are exercisable at or prior to such time as the Investors can first exercise their rights under Section 2.01 or Section 2.02.

28






party to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any such Registration Statement or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such indemnified party expressly for use in the preparation thereof.  This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have.  Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Holder or any indemnified party or any of their respective Affiliates or representatives and regardless of any indemnity agreed to in the underwriting agreement that is less favorable to the Holders.  The Company shall also indemnify underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such Persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the indemnified parties.
(b)Indemnification by the Participating Holders.  Each Participating Holder agrees (severally and not jointly) to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors and officers and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act), and each other Holder, each of such other Holder’s respective direct or indirect partners, members or shareholders and each of such partner’s, member’s or shareholder’s partners, members or shareholders and, with respect to all of the foregoing Persons, each of their respective Affiliates, employees, directors, officers, trustees or agents and each Person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) such Persons and each of their respective Representatives from and against any Losses resulting from (i) any untrue statement of a material fact in any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Securities were Registered under the Securities Act (including any final, preliminary or summary Prospectus contained therein or any amendment or supplement thereto or any documents incorporated by reference therein) or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, or (ii) any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information furnished in writing by such Holder or its Affiliates or their respective representatives to the Company specifically for inclusion in such Registration Statement and has not been corrected in a subsequent writing prior to or concurrently with the sale of the Registrable Securities to the Person asserting the claim, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) was made in such Registration Statement, Prospectus, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or other document, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder or its Affiliates or their respective representatives expressly for use therein.  In no event shall the liability of such Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder under the sale of Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. 
29






(c)Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings.  Any Person entitled to indemnification under this Section 2.09 shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that, any delay or failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder only to the extent, if at all, that it is actually and materially prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure) and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that, any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to select and employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Person unless (A) the indemnifying party has agreed in writing to pay such fees or expenses, (B) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim within a reasonable time after delivery of notice of such claim from the Person entitled to indemnification hereunder and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Person, (C) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of its counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, or (D) in the reasonable judgment of any such Person (based upon advice of its counsel) a conflict of interest may exist between such Person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the Person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such Person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such Person).  If the indemnifying party assumes the defense, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to settle such action, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement, in each case without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, unless the entry of such judgment or settlement (i) includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party and its Affiliates and representatives of an unconditional release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation, (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such indemnified party, and (iii) does not provide for any relief other than monetary damages, and provided, that, any sums payable in connection with such settlement are paid in full by the indemnifying party.  If such defense is not assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its prior written consent, but such consent may not be unreasonably withheld.  It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, except as specifically set forth in this Section 2.09(c), in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements or other charges of more than one separate firm admitted to practice in such jurisdiction at any one time unless (x) the employment of more than one counsel has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party or parties, (y) an indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on the advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the other indemnified parties, or (z) a conflict or potential conflict exists or may exist (based upon advice of counsel to an indemnified party) between such indemnified party and the other indemnified parties, in each of which cases the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such additional counsel or counsels.
30






(d)Contribution.  If for any reason the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2.09(a) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any Losses referred to therein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other hand in connection with the acts, statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  In connection with any Registration Statement filed with the SEC by the Company, the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.  The parties hereto agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.09(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 2.09(d).  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 amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the Losses referred to in Section 2.09(a) and Section 2.09(b) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.09(d), in connection with any Registration Statement filed by the Company, a Participating Holder shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder under the sale of Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation less any amount paid by such Holders pursuant to Section 2.09(b).  If indemnification is available under this Section 2.09, the indemnifying parties shall indemnify each indemnified party to the full extent provided in Section 2.09(a) and Section 2.09(b) hereof without regard to the provisions of this Section 2.09(d).
(e)No Exclusivity.  The remedies provided for in this Section 2.09 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity or pursuant to any other agreement.
(f)Indemnification Priority. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that any of the Persons entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 2.09 (each, a “Company Indemnitee” and collectively, the “Company Indemnitees”) may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by other sources. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees (i) that it is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to a Company Indemnitee are primary and any obligation of such other sources to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by such Company Indemnitee are secondary) and (ii) that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by a Company Indemnitee and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally 
31






permitted and as required by the terms of this Agreement without regard to any rights a Company Indemnitee may have against such other sources. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by such other sources on behalf of a Company Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which such Company Indemnitee has sought indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance from the Company shall affect the foregoing, and that such other sources shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of such Company Indemnitee against the Company.
(g)Survival.  The indemnities provided in this Section 2.09 shall survive the transfer of any Registrable Securities by such Holder and the termination of this Agreement.
Section II.10.Rules 144 and 144A and Regulation S.  The Company covenants that it will file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder (or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the reasonable request of a Tiptree Investor or a Warburg Investor, promptly make publicly available such necessary information for so long as necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rules 144, 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act), and it will take such further action as any Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor may reasonably request, following the IPO, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Holders to sell Registrable Securities without Registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (i) Rules 144, 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act, as such Rules may be amended from time to time, or (ii) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC.  Upon the reasonable request of a Holder, the Company will promptly deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements and, if not, the specifics thereof.

(c)For purposes of this Agreement “ Permitted Registration Demands” means three (3); provided, however, that with respect to Registrations pursuant to Section 2.02(a), if the Company is eligible to file a Short-Form Registration, such Short Form Registrations (and any 
32






Shelf Take-Downs, including any Underwritten Shelf Take-Downs) shall not be limited or count as one (1) of the three (3) Permitted  Registration Demands for purposes of Section 2.11(a); provided, further, that a Demand Registration shall not count as one (1) of the three (3) Permitted Registration Demands unless the applicable Demand Party is able to Register and sell at least ninety percent (90%) of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration as so included.   
Section II.12.Clear Market.  With respect to any Underwritten Offerings of Registrable Securities, the Company agrees not to effect (other than pursuant to the Registration applicable to such Underwritten Offering or pursuant to a Special Registration or pursuant to the exercise by a Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor of any of its rights under Section 2.01 or Section 2.02) any public sale or distribution, or to file any Registration Statement (other than pursuant to the Registration applicable to such Underwritten Offering or pursuant to a Special Registration or pursuant to the exercise by a Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor of any of its rights under Section 2.01 or Section 2.02) covering any of its equity securities or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the period not to exceed ten (10) days prior and sixty (60) days following the effective date of such offering or such longer period up to ninety (90) days as may be requested by the managing underwriter for such Underwritten Offering.  “Special Registration” means the registration of (A) equity securities and/or options or other rights in respect thereof solely registered on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (or successor form) or (B) shares of equity securities and/or options or other rights in respect thereof to be offered to directors, employees, consultants, customers, lenders or vendors of the Company or its Subsidiaries or in connection with dividend reinvestment plans.
Section II.13.In-Kind Distributions.  If any Holder seeks to effectuate an in-kind distribution of all or part of its Company Shares to its direct or indirect equityholders, the Company will reasonably cooperate with and assist such Holder, such equityholders and the Company’s transfer agent to facilitate such in-kind distribution in the manner reasonably requested by such Holder (including the delivery of instruction letters by the Company or its counsel to the Company’s transfer agent, the delivery of customary legal opinions by counsel to the Company and the delivery of Company Shares without restrictive legends, to the extent no longer applicable).
Section II.14.Reasonable Assistance.  If requested by any Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor in connection with any transaction involving any Registrable Securities (including any sale or other transfer of such securities without registration under the Securities Act, any margin loan with respect to such securities and any pledge of such securities), the Company agrees to provide Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor, as applicable, with customary and reasonable assistance to facilitate such transaction, including, without limitation, (i) such action as Tiptree Investor or Warburg Investor, as applicable, may reasonably request from time to time to enable such Investor to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act and (ii) entering into an “issuer’s agreement” in connection with any margin loan with respect to such securities in customary form.

This Agreement shall terminate with respect to any Holder (a) for those Holders that beneficially own less than five percent (5%) of the Company’s outstanding Company Shares, if all of the Registrable Securities then owned by such Holder could be sold in any ninety (90)-day period pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming for this purpose that such Holder is an Affiliate of the Company) or (b) if such Holder no longer holds any Registrable Securities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Section 2.09, Section 2.10 and Section 2.13 and all of this Article III shall survive any such termination.  Upon the written request of the Company, each Holder agrees to promptly deliver a certificate to the Company setting forth the number of Registrable Securities then beneficially owned by such Holder.
Section III.02.Injunctive Relief.  It is hereby agreed and acknowledged that it will be impossible to measure in money the damage that would be suffered if the parties fail to comply with any of the obligations herein imposed on them and that in the event of any such failure, an aggrieved Person will be irreparably damaged and will not have an adequate remedy at law.  Any such Person shall, therefore, be entitled (in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled in law or in equity) to injunctive relief, including specific performance, to enforce such obligations, and if any action should be brought in equity to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, none of the parties hereto shall raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.

Any amendment, termination, or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 3.04 shall be binding on all parties hereto, regardless of whether any such party has consented thereto.
Section III.05.Successors, Assigns and Transferees.

35






have the same rights, benefits and obligations with respect to such transferred Registrable Securities as were applicable to Registrable Securities held by such transferee prior to such transfer).  Nothing herein shall operate to permit a transfer of Registrable Securities otherwise restricted by the Stockholders Agreement or any other agreement to which any Holder may be a party.

Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner so that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
Section III.11.Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (including by facsimile), each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall be considered one and the same agreement.
Section III.12.Headings.  The headings of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part thereof.
