for Registration of all or part of their Registrable Securities, which written demand shall describe the amount and type of securities
to be included in such Registration and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof (such written demand a “Demand Registration”).
The Company shall, within ten (10) days of the Company’s receipt of the Demand Registration, notify, in writing, all other Holders
of Registrable Securities of such demand, and each Holder of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion

or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration, a “Requesting Holder”) shall
so notify the Company, in writing, within five (5) days after the receipt by the Holder of the notice from the Company. Upon receipt

with the Commission with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration has been declared effective by the Commission and
(ii) the Company has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, further,
that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, an offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration pursuant
to a Demand Registration is subsequently interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission, federal or state court or
any other governmental agency the Registration Statement with respect to such Registration shall be deemed not to have been declared

Securities in such Underwritten Offering to the extent provided herein. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities
through an Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.1.3 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with

shareholders who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten
Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success
of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of

the applicable Registration Statement to become effective; (B) the Holders have requested an Underwritten Registration and the Company
and the Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of underwriters to firmly underwrite the offer; or (C) in the good faith judgment
of the Board such Registration would be seriously detrimental to the Company and the Board concludes as a result that it is essential
to defer the filing of such Registration Statement at such time, then in each case the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate
signed by the Company’s Chairman of the Board (or President of the Company) stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board
it would be seriously detrimental to the Company for such Registration Statement to be filed in the near future and that it is therefore

a period of not more than thirty (30) days; provided, however, that the Company shall not defer its obligation in this
manner more than once in any 12-month period.

if such stop order should be issued;


 


3.1.8

3.1.10
permit a representative of the Holders (such representative to be selected by a majority of the participating Holders), the Underwriters,
if any, and any attorney or accountant retained by such Holders or Underwriter to participate, at each such person’s own expense,
in the preparation of the Registration Statement, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information
reasonably requested by any such representative, Underwriter, attorney or accountant in connection with the Registration; provided,
however, that such representatives or Underwriters enter into a confidentiality agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Company, prior to the release or disclosure of any such information; and provided further, the Company may not include
the name of any Holder or Underwriter or any information regarding any Holder or Underwriter in any Registration Statement or Prospectus,

Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any response to any comment letter, without the prior written consent of such Holder or Underwriter

obtain a “cold comfort” letter from the Company’s independent registered public accountants in the event of an Underwritten
Registration which the participating Holders may rely on, in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered

of the participating Holders;


 


3.1.12
on the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration, obtain an opinion, dated such date, of counsel

promulgated thereafter by the Commission);


 


3.1.15
if the Registration involves the Registration of Registrable Securities involving gross proceeds in excess of $50,000,000, use its reasonable
efforts to make available senior executives of the Company to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may
be reasonably requested by the Underwriter in any Underwritten Offering; and


 




    	9

otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Holders, in

3.2
Registration Expenses. The Registration Expenses of all Registrations shall be borne by the Company. It is acknowledged by the
Holders that the Holders shall bear all incremental selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities, such as Underwriters’
commissions and discounts, brokerage fees, Underwriter marketing costs and, other than as set forth in the definition of “Registration
Expenses,” all reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing the Holders.


 


3.3
Requirements for Participation in Underwritten Offerings. No Person may participate in any Underwritten Offering for equity securities
of the Company pursuant to a Registration initiated by the Company hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s
securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and (ii) completes and executes all customary
questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents as may be
reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.


 


3.4
Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or Prospectus
contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until he, she or it has
received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants
to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as practicable after the time of such notice), or until he, she or it is advised
in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration
Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion
in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control,
the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend
use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than thirty (30) days, determined in good faith
by the Company to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holders
agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to any Registration
in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities. The Company shall immediately notify the Holders of the expiration
of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 3.4.


 


3.5
Reporting Obligations. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall be a reporting
company under the Exchange Act, covenants to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace
period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Holders with true and complete copies of all such filings. The Company further covenants that
it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder
to sell Class A Shares held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided
by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), including providing
any legal opinions. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized
officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION


 


4.1
Indemnification.


 


4.1.1
The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors and
each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
expenses (including attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration
Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same
are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Company
shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of
the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.


 




    	10



     


    

 


4.1.2
In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish
to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration
Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each
person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses
(including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the
Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue
statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein;
provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable
Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds
received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities
shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the
Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company.


 


4.1.3
Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect
to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification
hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s
reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit
such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense
is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its
consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume
the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (plus local counsel) for all parties
indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict
of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying
party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot
be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such
settlement) or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified
party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.


 


4.1.4
The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or
on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer
of securities. The Company and each Holder of Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified
party for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s or such Holder’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.


 




    	11



     


    

 


4.1.5
If the indemnification provided under Section 4.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless
an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein (except as provided herein),
then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified
party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault
of the 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 to state a material fact, was made
by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified
party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided, however,
that the liability of any Holder under this subsection 4.1.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such
Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities
referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in subsections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3
above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 were determined
by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred
to in this subsection 4.1.5. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.

5.3

5.4
Governing Law; Venue. NOTWITHSTANDING THE PLACE WHERE THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE EXECUTED BY ANY OF THE PARTIES HERETO, THE PARTIES
EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AS APPLIED TO AGREEMENTS

the foregoing, any amendment hereto or waiver hereof that adversely affects one Holder, solely in his, her or its capacity as a holder
of the capital shares of the Company, in a manner that is materially different from the other Holders (in such capacity) shall require
the consent of the Holder so affected. No course of dealing between any Holder or the Company and any other party hereto or any failure
or delay on the part of a Holder or the Company in exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of
any rights or remedies of any Holder or the Company. No single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies under this Agreement by
