LNB BANCORP, INC.

Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement

Granted Under 2006 Stock Incentive Plan

     1. Grant of Option.

     This agreement evidences the grant by LNB Bancorp, Inc., an Ohio corporation, on                      ,
20___ (the “Grant Date”) to                     , an [employee] of the Company (the “Participant”), of an
option to purchase, in whole or in part, on the terms provided herein and in the Company’s 2006
Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), a total of                      Shares at $                      per Share.
Unless earlier terminated, this option shall expire at 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on                      (the
“Final Exercise Date”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meanings ascribed to them in the Plan.

     It is intended that the option evidenced by this agreement shall be a Non-Qualified Stock
Option. Except as otherwise indicated by the context, the term “Participant,” as used in this
option, shall be deemed to include any person who acquires the right to exercise this option
validly under its terms.

     2. Vesting Schedule.

     This option will become exercisable (“vest”) as to [one-third] of the original number of
Shares on the first anniversary of the Grant Date and as to an additional [one-third] of the
original number of Shares on each successive anniversary following the first anniversary of the
Grant Date until the [third] anniversary of the Grant Date.

     The right of exercise shall be cumulative so that to the extent the option is not exercised in
any period to the maximum extent permissible it shall continue to be exercisable, in whole or in
part, with respect to all Shares for which it is vested until the earlier of the Final Exercise
Date or the termination of this option under Section 3 hereof or the Plan.

     3. Exercise of Option.

     (a) Form of Exercise. Each election to exercise this option shall be in
writing, signed by the Participant, and received by the Company at its principal office,
accompanied by this agreement, and payment in full in the manner provided in the Plan. The
Participant may purchase less than the number of Shares covered hereby, provided that no
partial exercise of this option may be for any fractional Share.

     (b) Continuous Relationship with the Company Required. Except as otherwise
provided in this Section 3, this option may not be exercised unless the Participant, at the
time he or she exercises this option, is, and has been at all times since the Grant Date, an
[employee] of the Company or any other entity the employees, officers, directors,
consultants, or advisors of which are eligible to receive option grants under the Plan (an
“Eligible Participant”).

 

 

     (c) Termination of Relationship with the Company. If the Participant ceases to
be an Eligible Participant for any reason, then, except as provided in paragraphs (d) and
(e) below, the right to exercise this option shall terminate 60 days after such cessation
(but in no event after the Final Exercise Date), provided that this option
shall be exercisable only to the extent that the Participant was entitled to exercise this
option on the date of such cessation.

     (d) Exercise Period Upon Death or Disability. If the Participant dies or
becomes disabled (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code) prior to the Final
Exercise Date while he or she is an Eligible Participant and the Company has not terminated
such relationship for Cause (as defined in paragraph (e) below), this option shall be
exercisable, within the period of one year following the date of death or disability of the
Participant, by the Participant (or in the case of death by an authorized transferee),
provided that this option shall be exercisable only to the extent that this
option was exercisable by the Participant on the date of his or her death or disability, and
further provided that this option shall not be exercisable after the Final Exercise Date.

     (e) Discharge for Cause. If the Participant, prior to the Final Exercise Date,
is discharged by the Company for Cause (as defined below), the right to exercise this option
shall terminate immediately upon the effective date of such discharge. “Cause” shall mean
(i) the Participant’s commission of any act constituting a felony or a crime involving moral
turpitude; (ii) breach by the Participant of any non-competition, non-solicitation or
confidentiality obligation to the Company; (iii) any act of the Participant involving
embezzlement or fraud against the Company or any Affiliate; or (iv) any act of the
Participant involving operational wrongdoing relating to the Company or any Affiliate.
Whether “Cause” exists shall be determined by the Committee in its sole and exclusive
discretion. The Participant shall be considered to have been discharged for “Cause” if the
Company determines, within 30 days after the Participant’s resignation, that discharge for
Cause was warranted.

     4. Withholding.

     No Shares will be issued pursuant to the exercise of this option unless and until the
Participant pays to the Company, or makes provision satisfactory to the Company for payment of, any
federal, state or local withholding taxes required by law to be withheld in respect of this option.

     5. Nontransferability of Option.

     This option may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered by the
Participant, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except in accordance with the terms of the
Plan. During the lifetime of the Participant, this option shall be exercisable only by the
Participant.

     6. Change in Control.

     In the event of a Change in Control, this option shall become immediately exercisable in full.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee retains and shall have the right in its sole

- 2 -

 

and exclusive discretion to take any or all other actions described in Section 11.2 of the
Plan with respect to this option in the event of a Change in Control.

     7. Code Section 409A; Tax Consequences.

     This option is intended to meet the requirements for exemption from Code Section 409A set
forth in Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(b)(5), and any other such applicable exemption, and shall be
construed and administered accordingly. If the Company reasonably determines that any compensation
or benefits payable under this option may be subject to taxation under Code Section 409A, the
Company, after consultation with the Participant, shall have the authority to adopt, prospectively
or retroactively, such amendments to this option or to take any other actions it determines
necessary or appropriate to: (i) exempt the compensation and benefits payable under this option
from Code Section 409A; (ii) comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A; or (iii) more
generally, avoid adverse taxation under Code Section 409A. In no event, however, shall this
section or any other provisions of the Plan or this option be construed to require the Company or
its Affiliates to provide any gross-up for the tax consequences of any provisions of, or payments
under, the Plan or this option and the Company and its Affiliates shall have no responsibility for
tax consequences to the Participant (or anyone claiming through the Participant) resulting from the
terms or operation of the Plan or this option.

     8. Provisions of the Plan.

     This option is subject to the provisions of the Plan, a copy of which is furnished to the
Participant with this option.

     9. Tax Reporting.

     The option is a nonqualified stock option subject to federal income tax treatment described in
Code Section 83. The Company and Participant shall report any transaction relating to the option
on federal income tax returns in a manner consistent with that status.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this option to be executed by its duly authorized
officer.

     (i) Request for Registration. If the Company shall receive from an Initiating
Holder, at any time, a written request that the Company effect any registration with respect
to all or a part of the Registrable Securities, the Company will:

     (1) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, qualification or
compliance to all other Holders; and

     (2) as soon as practicable, use its reasonable best efforts to effect such registration
(including, without limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective
amendments, appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities
laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act)
as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or
such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with
all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any Holder or Holders joining in such
request as are specified in a written request received by the Company within ten (10)
business days after written notice from the Company is given under Section 2(a)(i)(1) above;
provided, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect, or take any action to
effect, any such registration pursuant to this Section 2(a):

(A) In any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to
execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such
registration, qualification or compliance, unless the Company is already
subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the
Securities Act or applicable rules or regulations thereunder;

(B) After the Company has effected one (1) such registration pursuant to
this Section 2(a) and such registration has been declared or ordered
effective and the sales of such Registrable Securities shall have
closed; provided, however, that a registration shall not be
deemed to constitute a registration pursuant to this Section 2(a) in the
event that less than ninety percent (90%) of the Registrable Securities held
by Holders participating in the registration are permitted to participate in
such registration;

3

 

(C) If the Registrable Securities requested by all Holders to be registered
pursuant to such request do not have an anticipated aggregate public
offering price (before any underwriting discounts and commissions) of not
less than $25,000,000;

(D) During the period starting with the date thirty (30) days prior to the
Company’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on the
date three (3) months immediately following the effective date of, any
registration statement pertaining to securities of the Company (other than a
registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction under the Securities
Act, with respect to an employee benefit plan or with respect to the
Company’s first registered public offering of its stock); provided,
that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts
to cause such registration statement to become effective; provided,
however, that the Company may only delay an offering pursuant to
this Section 2(a)(i)(2)(D) for a period of not more than thirty (30) days,
if a filing of any other registration statement is not made within that
period and the Company may only exercise this right once in any twelve
(12)-month period; or

(E) If the Company shall furnish to the Initiating Holders a certificate
signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good faith
judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company it would be seriously
detrimental to the Company or its stockholders for a registration statement
to be filed in the near future, in which case the Company’s obligation to
use its best efforts to comply with this Section 2(a) shall be deferred for
a period not to exceed ninety (90) days from the date of receipt of written
request from the Initiating Holders; provided, however, that
the Company shall not exercise such right more than once in any twelve
(12)-month period.

The registration statement filed pursuant to the request of the Initiating Holders may, subject to
the provisions of Section 2(a)(ii) below, include other securities of the Company that are held by
Persons who, by virtue of agreements with the Company, are entitled to include their securities in
any such registration (“Other Stockholders”). In the event any Holder requests a
registration pursuant to this Section 2(a) in connection with a distribution of Registrable
Securities to its partners or members, the registration shall provide for the resale by such
partners or members, if requested by such Holder.

The registration rights set forth in this Section 2 may be assigned, in whole or in part, to any
transferee of Registrable Securities (who shall be bound by all obligations of this Agreement).

     (ii) Underwriting. If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the
Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so
advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to Section 2(a)(i).

4

 

If Other Stockholders request inclusion of their securities in the underwriting, the Holders shall
offer to include the securities of such Other Stockholders in the underwriting and may condition
such offer on their acceptance of the further applicable provisions of this Section 2. The Holders
whose shares are to be included in such registration and the Company shall (together with all Other
Stockholders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting) enter into an
underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters
selected for such underwriting by the Initiating Holders and reasonably acceptable to the Company.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2(a), if the representative advises the Holders
in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten,
the representative may limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the
registration and underwriting in accordance with Section 2(b)(ii); provided that such allocation
shall be made in the following manner: (i) first, Pro Rata (as defined below) to Registrable
Securities and securities entitled to registration under the Series B Registration Rights Agreement
(as defined below), regardless of the number of shares that can be sold without exceeding the
Maximum Number of Shares; (ii) second, to securities that the Company desires to sell, and (iii),
third, securities for the account of Other Stockholders that the Company is obligated to register
pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such persons that can be sold, Pro Rata, in the
case of (ii) and (iii) without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.. If any Holder or Other
Stockholder who has requested inclusion in such registration as provided herein disapproves of the
terms of the underwriting, such Person may elect to withdraw therefrom by providing written notice
to the Company, the underwriter and the Initiating Holders. The securities so withdrawn shall also
be withdrawn from registration.

     (b) Company Registration.

     (i) If the Company shall determine to register any of its equity securities either for
its own account or for the account of Other Stockholders, other than a registration relating
solely to employee benefit plans, or a registration relating solely to a Rule 145
transaction under the Securities Act, or a registration on any registration form which does
not permit secondary sales or does not include substantially the same information as would
be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of Registrable
Securities, the Company will:

     (1) promptly give to each of the Holders a written notice thereof (which shall include
a list of the jurisdictions in which the Company intends to attempt to qualify such
securities under the applicable blue sky or other state securities laws); and

     (2) include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or
other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities
specified in a written request or requests, made by the Holders within ten (10) days after
receipt of the written notice from the Company described in clause (1) above, except to the
extent limited as set forth in Section 2(b)(ii) below. Such written request may specify all
or a part of the Holders’ Registrable Securities. In the event any Holder requests
inclusion in a registration pursuant to this Section 2(b) in connection with a

5

 

distribution of Registrable Securities to its partners or members, the registration
shall provide for the resale by such partners or members, if requested by such Holder.

     (ii) Underwriting. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is
for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise each
of the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 2(b)(i)(1) above.
In such event, the right of each of the Holders to registration pursuant to this Section
2(b) shall be conditioned upon such Holders’ participation in such underwriting and the
inclusion of such Holders’ Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided
herein. The Holders whose shares are to be included in such registration shall (together
with the Company and the Other Stockholders distributing their securities through such
underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative
of the underwriter or underwriters selected for underwriting by the Company.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2(b), if the representative determines
that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the
representative may limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the
registration and underwriting in accordance with the allocation priority set forth below.
The Company shall promptly advise all holders of securities requesting registration of such
limitation, and the number of shares of securities that are entitled to be included in the
registration and underwriting (the “Maximum Number of Shares”) shall be allocated in
the following manner: (i) first, the securities that the Company desires to sell,
regardless of the number of shares that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of
Shares; (ii) second, both (A) the Registrable Securities held by the Holders and (B)
the securities held by holders of Series B Preferred Stock entitled to registration under
the Registration Rights Agreement, dated January 31, 2008, among the holders of Series B
Preferred Stock and the Company (the “Series B Registration Rights Agreement”), all
pro rata in accordance with the number of shares that each such Holder of
Registrable Securities or holder of securities entitled to registration under the Series B
Registration Rights Agreement, respectively, has requested be included in such registration
(such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”), to the extent that the
Maximum Number of Shares has not been exceeded; and (iii) third, to the extent that
the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses, the
securities for the account of Other Stockholders that the Company is obligated to register
pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such persons that can be sold, Pro Rata,
without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares (the foregoing allocation is referred to
herein as the “Allocation Priority”). If any of the Holders or any officer,
director or Other Stockholder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, he she or
it may elect to withdraw therefrom by providing written notice to the Company and the
underwriter. Any Registrable Securities or other securities excluded or withdrawn from such
underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration.

          (c) Form S-3. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to qualify for
registration on Form S-3 for secondary sales. After the Company has qualified for the use of Form
S-3, the Holders shall have the right to request up to four (4) registrations on Form S-3 (such
requests shall be in writing and shall state the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be
disposed of and the intended method of disposition of shares by such holders), provided,
that

6

 

the Company shall not be obligated to effect, or take any action to effect, any such
registration pursuant to this Section 2(c):

     (i) Unless the Holder or Holders requesting registration propose to dispose of shares
of Registrable Securities having an aggregate price to the public (before deduction of
Selling Expenses) of more than $12,500,000;

     (ii) Within one hundred eighty (180) days of the effective date of the most recent
registration pursuant to this Section 2(c) in which securities held by the requesting Holder
could have been included for sale or distribution;

     (iii) In any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute
a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or
compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except
as may be required by the Securities Act or applicable rules or regulations thereunder;

     (iv) During the period starting with the date thirty (30) days prior to the Company’s
good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on the date three (3) months
immediately following the effective date of, any registration statement pertaining to
securities of the Company (other than a registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction
under the Securities Act or with respect to an employee benefit plan); provided,
that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such
registration statement to become effective; provided, however, that the
Company may only delay an offering pursuant to this Section 2(c)(iv) for a period of not
more than thirty (30) days, if a filing of any other registration statement is not made
within that period and the Company may only exercise this right once in any twelve
(12)-month period; or

     (v) If the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the President
of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the
Company it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its stockholders for a
registration statement to be filed in the near future, in which case the Company’s
obligation to use its best efforts to comply with this Section 2(c) shall be deferred for a
period not to exceed ninety (90) days from the date of receipt of written request from the
Holders; provided, however, that the Company shall not exercise such right
more than once in any twelve (12)-month period.

The Company shall give written notice to all Holders of the receipt of a request for registration
pursuant to this Section 2(c)and shall provide a reasonable opportunity for other Holders to
participate in the registration; provided, that if the registration is for an underwritten
offering, the terms of Section 2(a)(ii) above shall apply to all participants in such offering.
Subject to the foregoing, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to effect promptly the
registration of all shares of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 to the extent requested by the
Holder or Holders thereof for purposes of disposition. In the event any Holder requests a
registration pursuant to this Section 2(c) in connection with a distribution of Registrable
Securities to its partners or

7

 

members, the registration shall provide for the resale by such partners or members, if requested by
such Holder.

          (d) Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with
any registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 2 shall be borne by the
Company, and all Selling Expenses shall be borne by the Holders of the securities so registered pro
rata on the basis of the number of their shares so registered.

          (e) Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration effected by the Company
pursuant to this Section 2, the Company will keep the Holders, as applicable, advised in writing as
to the initiation of each registration and as to the completion thereof. At its reasonable
expense, the Company will:

          (i) keep such registration effective for a period of ninety (90) days;

     (ii) furnish such number of prospectuses and other documents incident thereto as each
of the Holders, as applicable, from time to time may reasonably request;

     (iii) notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration at any
time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act
of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such
registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact
or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to
make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading; and

     (iv) furnish, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the
underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters or, if such
securities are not being sold through underwriters, on the date that the registration
statement with respect to such securities becomes effective, (1) an opinion, dated as of
such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in
form and substance as is reasonably and customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten
public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders participating in
such registration and (2) a letter, dated as of such date, from the independent certified
public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is reasonably and customarily
given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public
offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and if permitted by applicable accounting
standards, to the Holders participating in such registration.

     (f) Indemnification.

     (i) The Company will indemnify each Holder, each of its officers, directors and
partners and members, and each Person controlling each Holder, with respect to each
registration which has been effected pursuant to this Section 2, and each underwriter, if
any, and each person who controls any underwriter, against all claims, losses, damages

8

 

and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue
statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such
registration statement, prospectus, issuer free-writing prospectus, offering circular or
other document, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, and will reimburse each such Holder, each of its officers, directors and
partners and members, and each Person controlling each such Holder, each such underwriter
and each Person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with investigating and defending any such claim, loss,
damage, liability or action; provided, that the Company will not be liable in any
such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out
of or is based on any untrue statement or omission based upon written information furnished
to the Company by such Holder or underwriter and stated to be specifically for use therein;
provided, however, that the obligations of the Company to each Holder
hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds to such Holder of
securities sold in such registration as contemplated herein.

     (ii) Each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by it are included in the
securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected,
severally and not jointly, indemnify the Company, each of its directors and officers and
each underwriter, if any, of the Company’s securities covered by such a registration
statement, each Person who controls the Company or such underwriter, each Other Stockholder
and each of their respective officers, directors, partners and members, and each Person
controlling such Other Stockholder against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged
untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement,
prospectus, issuer free-writing prospectus, offering circular or other document made by such
Holder in writing, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements by such
Holder therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company, the underwriters, and such
Other Stockholders, and their respective directors, officers, partners, members, Persons or
control persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case
to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue
statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement,
prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished to the Company by such Holder and stated to be specifically
for use therein; provided, however, that the obligations of each Holder
hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds to such Holder of
securities sold in such registration as contemplated herein.

     (iii) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 2(f) (the
“Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide
indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has
actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the
Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting
therefrom;

9

 

provided, that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the
defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the
Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld) and the Indemnified
Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense (unless the Indemnified Party
shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the
Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in such action, in which case the fees and
expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party), and provided
further, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein
shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 2(f) unless
the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. No Indemnifying Party, in the
defense of any such claim or litigation shall, except with the prior written consent of each
Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which 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.
Each Indemnified Party shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in
question as an Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be
reasonably required in connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting
therefrom.

     (iv) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2(f) is held by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with respect to any loss,
liability, claim, damage or expense referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu
of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or
expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
Indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other in connection
with the statements or omissions (or alleged statements or omissions) which resulted in such
loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party
shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the 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.

     (v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification
and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with any
underwritten public offering contemplated by this Agreement are in conflict with the
foregoing provisions, the provisions in such underwriting agreement shall be controlling.

     (g) Information by the Holders.

     (i) Each Holder including securities in any registration pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder and the
distribution proposed by such Holder as the Company may reasonably request in

10

 

writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with any registration,
qualification or compliance referred to in this Section 2.

     (ii) In the event that, either immediately prior to or subsequent to the effectiveness
of any registration statement, any Holder shall distribute Registrable Securities to its
partners or members, such Holder shall so advise the Company and provide such information as
shall be necessary to permit an amendment to such registration statement to provide
information with respect to such partners or members, as selling security holders. Promptly
following receipt of such information, the Company shall file an appropriate amendment to
such registration statement reflecting the information so provided. Any incremental expense
to the Company resulting from such amendment shall be borne by such Holder.

     (h) Rule 144 Reporting.

          With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the
Commission which may permit the sale of restricted securities to the public without registration,
the Company agrees to:

     (i) at all times make and keep public information available as those terms are
understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”);

     (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all
reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements; and

     (iii) so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to such Holder, upon
request, a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting
requirements of Rule 144, and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, a copy of the most
recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so
filed as such Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of
the Commission allowing the Holder to sell any such securities without registration.

          (i) Termination. The registration rights set forth in this Section 2 shall not be
available to any Holder if, (i) in the written opinion of counsel to the Company, all of the
Registrable Securities then owned by such Holder could be sold in any ninety (90)-day period
pursuant to Rule 144(k) or are otherwise freely saleable or (ii) all of the Registrable Securities
held by such Holder have been sold in a registration pursuant to the Securities Act or pursuant to
Rule 144.
