2.    Registration Rights.


2.1       Initial Registration. As promptly as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than the date that is one year following the closing of the Transactions, the Issuer shall prepare and file with the SEC a Shelf Registration Statement (on Form S-3 if then eligible) to 
			
	2









permit the public resale of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  The  Issuer  shall  use  its  commercially reasonable  efforts  to  cause  such  Shelf
			
	3










Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable after the initial filing of the Shelf Registration Statement, but in no event more than two (2) Business Days after the date that is thirty (30) days following the filing thereof (or ninety (90) days following the filing thereof if the SEC notifies the Issuer that it will “Review” the Shelf Registration Statement). The Shelf Registration Statement shall provide for the resale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by the Holder. To the extent the initial Shelf Registration Statement is not made on Form S-3, the Issuer shall, upon becoming eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3, prepare and file a new Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 to replace the initial Shelf Registration Statement and use its best efforts to cause such subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. The SEC shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause any Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.1 to be continuously effective, supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that it is available for the resale of all Registrable Securities by the Holder until all Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement have ceased to be Registrable Securities (the “Effectiveness Period”). Such Shelf Registration Statement when effective (and all documents incorporated therein by reference) shall comply in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and shall not 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 not misleading (or, in the case of any prospectus contained in such Registration Statement, shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading).


2.2       Additional Demand Registration. Subject to the provisions hereof, if at any time the Issuer ceases to be eligible under applicable law to register resales of Registrable Securities on a Shelf Registration Statement, the Holder shall have the right to require the Issuer to file a Registration Statement registering for sale all or part of the Registrable Securities of the Holder under the Securities Act (an “Additional Demand Registration”) by delivering a written request therefor to the Issuer (i) specifying the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and (ii) containing all information about the Holder required to be included in such Registration Statement in accordance with applicable law. As soon as practicable after the receipt of such demand, the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such registration  (including  appropriate  qualification  under  applicable  blue  sky  or  other  state securities  laws  and  appropriate  compliance  with  applicable  regulations  issued  under  the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) of the Registrable Securities that the Issuer has been so requested to register. The Issuer shall not be obligated to effect more than one Additional Demand Registration pursuant to this Agreement.


2.4       Issuer  Undertakings.    With  respect  to  any  registration statement  filed pursuant to Sections 2.1 or 2.2 of this Agreement to register the resale of Registrable Securities (each, a “Registration Statement”), the Issuer shall (a) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective as soon as reasonably practicable after such filing; (b) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to remain effective at all times thereafter until the date when all of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder have been disposed of by the Holder; and (c) use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement (including documents filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of
			
	4









1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and incorporated by
			
	5










reference into such Registration Statement) and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective for the period specified in this sentence above; provided that, before filing such Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Issuer will furnish to the Holder copies of all such documents proposed to be filed reasonably in advance of such filing, which documents will be subject to review of the Holder.


2.5       Registration Procedures. With respect to the registration of the resale of Registrable Securities under a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2, the Issuer shall:


(a)       furnish  to  the  Holder  such  number  of  copies  of  such  Registration Statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included therein (including any preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as the Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities;


(b)      use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable securities laws in the U.S. and to register or qualify all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Holder reasonably requests and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the Holder to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities to be sold by the Holder; provided that the Issuer will not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subparagraph, (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (iii) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction);


(c)       notify the Holder, at any time when a prospectus relating to the resale of the Registrable Securities is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, upon discovery that, or upon the discovery of the happening of any event as a result of which, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement is not compliant with applicable securities laws or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, and the Issuer will promptly prepare and file with the SEC, and furnish to the Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus will be compliant with applicable securities laws or will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, as applicable;


(d)       use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering to be listed on each Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed;


(e)      otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC; and


(f)        in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related 
			
	6









prospectus or suspending the qualification of any securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of such order.
			
	7










2.6       Information Supplied. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Issuer to take any action to register the resale of the Registrable Securities that the Holder shall furnish the Issuer with such information regarding the Holder that is pertinent to the disclosure requirements relating to the registration and the distribution of the Registrable Securities as the Issuer may from time to time reasonably request. The Holder agrees to promptly furnish to the Issuer all information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Issuer by the Holder not misleading.


2.7    Expenses.


(a)       Except as expressly provided in this Section 2.7, the Issuer shall pay all reasonable   Registration   Expenses   relating   to   any   Registration   Statement.   “Registration Expenses” shall mean any and all fees and expenses incident to the Issuer’s performance of or compliance with this Section 2, including (i) SEC, Trading Market or Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. registration and filing fees and all related listing fees, (ii) fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws and in connection with the preparation of a “blue sky” survey, including reasonable fees and expenses of blue sky counsel, (iii) printing expenses, (iv) messenger and delivery expenses, (v) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Issuer, and (vi) fees and disbursements of all independent public accountants and fees and expenses of other Persons, including special experts, retained by the Issuer.  The Holder shall pay all Selling Expenses in connection with any sale of its Registrable Securities hereunder.


(b)       Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 2.7 shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to cause these expense provisions to comply with “blue sky” laws of each state in which the offering is made.


2.8    Restrictions on Registration and Disposition.


(a)       Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Issuer shall not be required to file a registration statement (or any amendment thereto) or effect any offering for so long as, (i) any event of the kind described in Section 2.5(c) or (ii) a Suspension Event, is occurring.  The Issuer shall not be entitled to exercise its right of suspension or postponement, as the case may be, pursuant to this Section 7.8(a) for more than an aggregate of 180 days in any
12-month period.


(b)       The Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Issuer of the happening of (i) any event of the kind described in Section 2.5(c) or (ii) a Suspension Event, the Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement until the Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemental or amended prospectus  contemplated  by  Section  2.5(c)  or  written  notice  from  the  Issuer  that  such Registration Statement is effective again and no amendment or supplement is needed.


(c)       The Holder shall not, during the period ending one year after the Effective Date, (i) offer, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock (including without limitation, Common Stock or such  other  securities  which  may  be  deemed  to  be  beneficially  owned  by  the  Holder  in 
			
	8









accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and securities which may be issued upon exercise of a stock option or warrant), or publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale
			
	9










or disposition, (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock or such other securities, whether any such transaction described in clauses (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, in each case other than (A) in  connection  with  participation  in  any  underwritten  offering  of  Common  Stock  effected pursuant to this Agreement, (B) in connection with the filing of any Registration Statement effected pursuant to this Agreement, and (C) distributions of shares of Common Stock to members, partners or stockholders of the Holder; provided, that in the case of any distribution pursuant to clause (C), each distribution shall be made in compliance with Section 3.7 hereof and each distributee shall agree in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms set forth in this Section 2.8(c) as if such distributee was a Holder.


2.9    Indemnification.


(a)       To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Issuer will indemnify and hold harmless the Holder participating, its directors and officers, and each other Person who controls or is controlled by the Holder and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, members, managers and  general  and  limited partners  (collectively, the  “Holder  Indemnified Parties”) against any losses, claims, damages and liabilities, joint or several, to which any Holder Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses,  claims,  damages  or  liabilities,  joint  or  several,  actions  or  proceedings  (whether commenced or threatened in writing in respect thereof) (“Claims”) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, or any prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto (including all documents incorporated by reference therein) or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to made the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made; or (ii) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any free writing prospectus prepared by the Issuer or authorized by it in writing for use by the Holder or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto (including all documents incorporated by reference therein) or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to made the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made; provided, that the Issuer shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Claim or expense arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission  or  alleged  omission  made  in  conformity  with  written  information  prepared  and furnished to the Issuer by the Holder expressly for use therein or by the Holder’s failure to deliver a copy of the prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto; and provided, further, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.9(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Claim if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Issuer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and provided, further, that the Issuer will not be liable to any Holder Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 2.9 to the extent that any Claim for which such Holder Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification relates to a sale of Registrable Securities in violation of Section 2.8.


			
	10









(b)       To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer and its directors and officers and each other Person who controls or is controlled by the Issuer and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, members,
			
	11










managers and general and limited partners against all Claims and expenses arising out of or based upon: (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto (including all documents incorporated by reference therein) or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made; or (ii) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any free writing prospectus prepared by the Issuer or authorized by it in writing for use by the Holder or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto (including all documents incorporated by reference therein) or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to made the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made; provided, that the Holder shall only be liable in any such case only to the extent that any such Claim or expense arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission is made in conformity with written information prepared and furnished to the Issuer by the Holder or the Holder’s agent expressly for use therein or by the Holder’s failure to deliver a copy of the prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto; provided, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.9(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Claim if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and provided, further, that the liability of the Holder hereunder will be limited to the amount of net proceeds received by the Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.


(c)       Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (i) give prompt written notice to the Issuer of any Claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment, based upon advice of counsel, a conflict of interest between such indemnified party and the indemnifying party may exist with respect to such Claim, permit the indemnifying party to assume the defense and settlement of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided, however, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder unless the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial to an  indemnifying  party's  ability  to  defend  such  action.  If  such  defense  is  assumed,  the indemnified  party  will  not  be  subject  to  any  liability  for  any  settlement  made  by  the indemnifying party without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld). Anything to the contrary appearing in this Agreement notwithstanding, the indemnifying party will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified hereunder 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.  If the indemnifying party assumes the defense, the indemnified party may engage its own counsel at its own sole cost and expense.  All fees and expenses of counsel to any indemnified party required to be paid by the indemnifying party shall be paid as incurred.


(d)       The indemnification provided for under this Agreement will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party and will survive the transfer of Registrable Securities by the Holder.  If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable
			
	12










by such indemnified party as a result of such Claims 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 statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by the Holder exceed the amount of the net proceeds received by the Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.


3.    Miscellaneous.
