     2. Registration.

          (a) On or prior to the Filing Deadline, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission
a “Shelf” Registration Statement covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities not
already covered by an existing and effective Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a
continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 or, if Rule 415 is not available for offers and sales of the
Registrable Securities, by such other means of distribution of Registrable Securities as the
Holders may reasonably specify (the “Initial Registration Statement”). The Initial Registration
Statement shall be on Form S-3 (except if the Company is then ineligible to register for resale the
Registrable Securities on Form S-3, in which case such registration shall be on Form S-1) subject
to the provisions of Section 2(f) and shall contain (except if otherwise required pursuant to
written comments received from the Commission upon a review of such Registration Statement) the
“Plan of Distribution” section attached hereto as Annex A. Notwithstanding the
registration obligations set forth in this subsection (a) and subsections (b) and (c) of this
Section 2, in the event the Commission informs the Company that all of the Registrable Securities
cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary
offering on a single registration statement, the Company agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the
holders thereof and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Initial
Registration Statement as required by the Commission and/or (ii) withdraw the Initial Registration
Statement and file a new registration statement (a “New Registration Statement”), in either case
covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the Commission,
on Form S-3 or such other form available to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a
secondary offering; provided, however, that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration
Statement, the Company shall be obligated to use its commercially reasonable efforts to advocate
with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with
the SEC Guidance, including without limitation, the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone
Interpretations D.29. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement and subject to the
payment of liquidated damages in Section 2(c), if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation of the
number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement
as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Company used diligent efforts to advocate
with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities),
unless otherwise directed in writing by a Holder as to its Registrable Securities, the number of
Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will first be reduced by
Registrable Securities not acquired pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (whether pursuant to
registration rights or otherwise), second by Registrable Securities represented by holders of
Warrant Shares (applied, in the case that some Warrant Shares may be registered, to the Holders on
a pro rata basis based on the total number of unregistered Warrant Shares held by such Holders) and
third by Registrable Securities represented by Shares (applied, in the case that some Shares may be
registered, to the Holders on a pro rata basis based on the total number of unregistered Shares
held by such Holders, subject to a determination by the Commission that certain Holders must be
reduced first based on the number of

4

 

Shares held by such Holders). In the event the Company amends
the Initial Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under
clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with
the Commission, as promptly as allowed by
Commission or staff guidance provided to the Company or to registrants of securities in
general, one or more registration statements on Form S-3 or such other form available to register
for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the Initial
Registration Statement, as amended, or the New Registration Statement (the “Remainder Registration
Statements”).

          (b) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Registration
Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable and, with respect to
the Initial Registration Statement or the New Registration Statement, as applicable, no later than
the Effectiveness Deadline (including filing with the Commission a request for acceleration of
effectiveness in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated under the Securities Act within five (5)
Business Days after the date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is
earlier) by the Commission that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed,” or not be
subject to further review and the effectiveness of such Registration Statement may be accelerated)
and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep each Registration Statement continuously
effective under the Securities Act until the earlier of (i) such time as all of the Registrable
Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been publicly sold by the Holders or (ii)
the date that all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement may be sold by
non-affiliates without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k) as determined by counsel to the
Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and reasonably acceptable to
the Company’s transfer agent (the “Effectiveness Period”). The Company shall ensure that each
Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained
therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of
prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading. Each
Registration Statement shall also cover, to the extent allowable under the Securities Act and the
rules promulgated thereunder (including Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional shares
of common stock resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions with respect
to the Registrable Securities. The Company shall telephonically request effectiveness of a
Registration Statement as of 5:00 pm Eastern Time on the Effective Date. The Company shall
promptly notify the Holders via facsimile or e-mail of the effectiveness of a Registration
Statement within one (1) Business Day of the date on which the Company telephonically confirms
effectiveness with the Commission, which confirmation shall initially be the date requested for
effectiveness of a Registration Statement. The Company shall, by 9:30 am Eastern Time on the first
Trading Day after the Effective Date, file a Rule 424(b) prospectus with the Commission. Failure
to so notify the Holders on or before the second Trading Day after such notification or
effectiveness or failure to file a final Prospectus as aforesaid shall be deemed an Event under
Section 2(c).

          (c) If: (i) the Initial Registration Statement is not filed with the Commission on or prior to
the Filing Deadline, (ii) the Initial Registration Statement or the New Registration Statement, as
applicable, is not declared effective by the Commission (or otherwise does not become effective)
for any reason on or prior to the Effectiveness Deadline or (iii) after its Effective Date, (A)
such Registration Statement ceases for any reason (including without limitation by reason of a stop
order, or the Company’s failure to update the Registration Statement), but excluding the inability
of any Holder to sell the Registrable Securities covered thereby due to market conditions, to
remain continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities for which it is required to be
effective or (B) the Holders are not permitted to utilize the Prospectus therein to resell such
Registrable Securities, in the case of (A) and (B), for an aggregate of more than 20 consecutive
Trading Days or for more than an aggregate of 40 Trading Days in any 12-month period (which need
not be consecutive), other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement by a Holder or a Holder’s
failure to return a Selling Stockholder Questionnaire within the time period provided

5

 

by Section 2(e) hereof (any such failure or breach in clauses (i) through (iii) above being referred to as an
“Event,” and, for purposes of clauses (i) or (ii), the date on which such Event occurs, or for
purposes of clause (iii), the date on which such 20 consecutive or 40 Trading Day period (as
applicable) is exceeded,
being referred to as “Event Date”), then in lieu of any other rights available to the Holders
hereunder or under applicable law: (x) within five (5) Business Days after each such Event Date,
the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty,
equal to 1.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement for any Registrable Securities held by such Holder on the Event Date (which remedy shall
be exclusive of any other remedies available under this Agreement or under applicable law); and (y)
on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been
cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay to each Holder an
amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1.0% of the aggregate purchase
price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for any Registrable Securities then
held by such Holder (which remedy shall be exclusive of any other remedies available under this
Agreement or under applicable law). The parties agree that the Company will not be liable for
liquidated damages under this Section 2(c) with respect to any Warrants or Warrant Shares. If the
Company fails to pay any liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full within five (5)
Business Days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 1.5% per
month (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Holder,
accruing daily from the date such liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such
interest thereon, are paid in full. The liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall
apply on a daily pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event, except in
the case of the first Event Date. In the event that the Company registers some but not all of the
Registrable Securities, the 1.0% of liquidated damages referred to above for any monthly period
shall be reduced to equal the percentage determined by multiplying 1.0% by a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the number of Registrable Securities for which there is not an
effective Registration Statement at such time and the denominator of which shall be the number of
Registrable Securities at such time. The Effectiveness Deadline for a Registration Statement shall
be extended without default or liquidated damages hereunder in the event that the Company’s failure
to obtain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement on a timely basis results from (i) the
failure of a Purchaser to timely provide the Company with information requested by the Company and
necessary to complete the Registration Statement in accordance with the requirements of the
Securities Act (in which the Effectiveness Deadline would be extended with respect to Registrable
Securities held by such Purchaser) or (ii) events or circumstances that are not in any way
attributable to the Company.

          (d) The Company shall not, from the date hereof until the date that is 60 days after the
Effective Date of the Registration Statement, prepare and file with the Commission a registration
statement relating to an offering for its own account under the Securities Act of any of its equity
securities other than a registration statement on Form S-8 or, in connection with an acquisition,
on Form S-4 unless the Closing Bid Price for the Common Stock on the Trading Day prior to the date
of filing any registration statement was greater than the Purchase Price. For the avoidance of
doubt, the Company shall not be prohibited from preparing and filing with the Commission a
registration statement relating to an offering of Common Stock by existing stockholders of the
Company under the Securities Act pursuant to the terms of registration rights held by such
stockholders.

          (e) Each Holder agrees to furnish to the Company a completed Questionnaire in the form
attached to this Agreement as Annex B (a “Selling Stockholder Questionnaire”) not more than
ten (10) Trading Days following the date of this Agreement. Each Holder further agrees that it
shall not be entitled to be named as a selling securityholder in a Registration Statement or use
the Prospectus for offers and resales of Registrable Securities at any time, unless such Holder has
returned to the Company a completed and signed Questionnaire. If a Holder of Registrable Securities
returns a

6

 

Questionnaire after the deadline specified in the previous sentence, the Company shall
use its commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as are required to name such Holder as
a selling security holder in the Registration Statement or any pre-effective or post-effective
amendment thereto and
to include (to the extent not theretofore included) in the Registration Statement the Registrable
Securities identified in such late Questionnaire. Each Holder acknowledges and agrees that the
information in the Selling Stockholder Questionnaire will be used by the Company in the preparation
of the Registration Statement and hereby consents to the inclusion of such information in the
Registration Statement.

          (f) In the event that Form S-3 is not available for the registration of the resale of
Registrable Securities hereunder, the Company shall (i) register the resale of the Registrable
Securities on another appropriate form reasonably acceptable to the Holders and (ii) undertake to
register the Registrable Securities on Form S-3 as soon as such form is available, provided that
the Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement then in effect until
such time as a Registration Statement on Form S-3 covering the Registrable Securities has been
declared effective by the Commission.

     3. Registration Procedures

          In connection with the Company’s registration obligations hereunder, the Company shall:

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

          (b) (i) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments (including post-effective
amendments) and supplements to each Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective as to the
applicable Registrable Securities for its Effectiveness Period and prepare and file with the
Commission such additional Registration Statements in order to register for resale under the
Securities Act all of the Registrable Securities; (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended
or supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement (subject to the terms of this Agreement),
and, as so supplemented or amended, to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; (iii) respond as promptly as
reasonably practicable to any comments received from the Commission with respect to each
Registration Statement or any amendment thereto and, as promptly as reasonably possible, provide
the Holders true and complete copies of all correspondence from and to the Commission relating to
such Registration Statement that pertains to the Holders as “Selling Stockholders” but not any
comments that would result in the disclosure to the Holders of material and non-public information
concerning the Company; and (iv) comply with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by a Registration
Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of
(subject to the terms of this Agreement) in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by
the Holders thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus
as so supplemented; provided, however, that each Purchaser shall be responsible for the

7

 

delivery of
the Prospectus to the Persons to whom such Purchaser sells any of the Shares or the Warrant Shares
(including in accordance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act), and each Purchaser agrees to
dispose of Registrable Securities in compliance with the plan of distribution described in the
Registration
Statement and otherwise in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. In
the case of amendments and supplements to a Registration Statement which are required to be filed
pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to this Section 3(b)) by reason of the Company
filing a report on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q or Form 8-K or any analogous report under the Exchange Act,
the Company shall have incorporated such report by reference into such Registration Statement, if
applicable, or shall file such amendments or supplements with the Commission on the same day on
which the Exchange Act report which created the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement
such Registration Statement was filed.

          (c) Notify the Holders (which notice shall, pursuant to clauses (iii) through (vi) hereof, be
accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite changes have
been made) as promptly as reasonably possible (and, in the case of (i)(A) below, not less than
three Trading Days prior to such filing, in the case of (iii) and (iv) below, not more than one
Trading Day after such issuance or receipt, in the case of (v) below, not less than one Trading Day
after a determination by the Company that the financial statements in any Registration Statement
have become ineligible for inclusion therein and, in the case of (vi) below, not more than one
Trading Day after the occurrence or existence of such development) and (if requested by any such
Person) confirm such notice in writing no later than one Trading Day following the day (i)(A) when
a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement
is proposed to be filed; (B) when the Commission notifies the Company whether there will be a
“review” of such Registration Statement and whenever the Commission comments in writing on any
Registration Statement (in which case the Company shall provide to each of the Holders true and
complete copies of all comments that pertain to the Holders as a “Selling Stockholder” or to the
“Plan of Distribution” and all written responses thereto, but not information that the Company
believes would constitute material and non-public information); and (C) with respect to each
Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (ii) of
any request by the Commission or any other Federal or state governmental authority for amendments
or supplements to a Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information that
pertains to the Holders as “Selling Stockholders” or the “Plan of Distribution”; (iii) of the
issuance by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order
suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement covering any or all of the Registrable
Securities or the initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the
Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from
qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation
or threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; (v) of the occurrence of any event or passage of
time that makes the financial statements included in a Registration Statement ineligible for
inclusion therein or any statement made in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any
document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material
respect or that requires any revisions to such Registration Statement, Prospectus or other
documents so that, in the case of such Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may
be, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any
Prospectus, form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which
they were made), not misleading; and (vi) the occurrence or existence of any pending development
with respect to the Company that the Company believes may be material and that, in the
determination of the Company, makes it not in the best interest of the Company to allow continued
availability of a Registration Statement or Prospectus, provided that any and all of such
information shall remain confidential to each Holder until such information otherwise becomes
public, unless disclosure by a Holder is required by law; provided, further, that notwithstanding
each Holder’s
 agreement to keep such information confidential, the Holders make no acknowledgement
that any such information is material, non-public information.

8

 

          (d) Use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued, obtain the
withdrawal of (i) any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or (ii) any
suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable
Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, as soon as practicable.

          (e) If requested by a Holder, furnish to such Holder, without charge, at least one conformed
copy of each Registration Statement and each amendment thereto and all exhibits to the extent
requested by such Person (including those previously furnished or incorporated by reference)
promptly after the filing of such documents with the Commission; provided, that the Company shall
have no obligation to provide any document pursuant to this clause that is available on the
Commission’s EDGAR system.

          (f) Prior to any resale of Registrable Securities by a Holder, use its commercially reasonable
efforts to register or qualify, unless an exemption from registration and qualification applies,
the Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such
jurisdictions within the United States as any Holder reasonably requests in writing, to keep each
such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness
Period and to do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary to enable the disposition in
such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statements; provided,
that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction
where it is not then so qualified or to take any action that would subject the Company to general
service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or subject the Company to
any material tax in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.

          (g) Prior to any resale of Registrable Securities by a Holder, use its commercially reasonable
efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders in connection with the
registration or qualification (or exemption from the registration or qualification) of such
Registrable Securities for the resale by the Holder under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such
jurisdictions within the United States as any Holder reasonably requests in writing, to keep each
registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period
and to do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary to enable the disposition in such
jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement;
provided, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any
jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, subject the Company to any material tax in any such
jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or file a general consent to service of process in any
such jurisdiction.

          (h) If requested by the Holders, cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely
preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be delivered to a
transferee pursuant to the Registration Statement, which certificates shall be free, to the extent
permitted by the Purchase Agreement and under law, of all restrictive legends, and to enable such
Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as any such Holders
may reasonably request. In connection therewith, if required by the Company’s transfer agent, the
Company shall promptly after the effectiveness of the Registration Statement cause an opinion of
counsel as to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement to be delivered to and maintained
with its transfer agent, together with any other authorizations, certificates and directions
required by the transfer agent, which authorize and direct the transfer agent to issue such
Registrable Securities without legend upon sale by the holder of such shares of Registrable
Securities under the Registration Statement.

          (i) Following the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 3(c)(iii) through (vi), as
promptly as reasonably practicable, prepare a supplement or amendment, including a post-effective
amendment, to the affected Registration Statements or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any
document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and file any

9

 

other required document so that, as thereafter delivered, no Registration Statement nor any Prospectus
will contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus, form of
prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made), not
misleading.

          (j) (i) In the time and manner required by the Principal Market, prepare and file with such
Trading Market an additional shares listing application covering all of the Registrable Securities,
(ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to take all steps necessary to cause such Registrable
Securities to be approved for listing on the Principal Market as soon as possible thereafter, (iii)
if requested by any Holder, provide such Holder evidence of such listing, and (iv) during the
Effectiveness Period, use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of such
Registrable Securities on the Principal Market.

          (k) In order to enable the Holders to sell Shares or Warrant Shares under Rule 144, for a
period of two years from the Closing, the Company covenants to use commercially reasonable efforts
to timely file (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 Section
13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. During such two year period, if the Company is not required to
file reports pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, it will prepare and furnish to
the Holders and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) promulgated under the
Securities Act annual and quarterly financial statements, together with a discussion and analysis
of such financial statements in form and substance substantially similar to those that would
otherwise be required to be included in reports required by Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act, as well as any other information required thereby, in the time period that such filings would
have been required to have been made under the Exchange Act. The Company further covenants that it
will use commercially reasonable efforts to take such further action as any Holder may reasonably
request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Person to sell Shares and
Warrant Shares without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the
exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, including compliance with the
provisions of the Purchase Agreement relating to the transfer of the Shares and Warrant Shares.

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

     4. Registration Expenses. All fees and expenses incident to the Company’s performance
of or compliance with its obligations under this Agreement (excluding any underwriting discounts
and selling commissions and all legal fees and expenses of legal counsel for any Holder) shall be
borne by the Company whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration
Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing sentence shall include, without
limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including, without limitation, fees and expenses
(A) with respect to filings required to be made with any Trading Market on which the common stock
is then listed for trading, (B) with respect to compliance with applicable state securities or Blue
Sky laws (including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company in
connection with Blue Sky qualifications or exemptions of

10

 

the Registrable Securities and
determination of the eligibility of the Registrable Securities for investment under the laws of
such jurisdictions as requested by the Holders) and (C) with respect to any filing that
may be required to be made by any broker through which a Holder intends to make sales of
Registrable Securities with NASD Regulation, Inc. pursuant to the NASD Rule 2710, so long as the
broker is receiving no more than a customary brokerage commission in connection with such sale,
(ii) printing expenses (including, without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for
Registrable Securities and of printing prospectuses if the printing of prospectuses is reasonably
requested by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration
Statement), (iii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (iv) fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company, (v) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Company so desires such
insurance, and (vi) fees and expenses of all other Persons retained by the Company in connection
with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, the Company
shall be responsible for all of its internal expenses incurred in connection with the consummation
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, all salaries and
expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any
annual audit and the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable
Securities on any securities exchange as required hereunder. In no event shall the Company be
responsible for any underwriting, broker or similar fees or commissions of any Holder or, except to
the extent provided for in the Transaction Documents, any legal fees or other costs of the Holders.

     5. Indemnification.

          (a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall, notwithstanding any
termination of this Agreement, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Holder, the officers,
directors, agents, partners, members, managers, stockholders, Affiliates and employees of each of
them, each Person who controls any such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, partners, members, managers,
stockholders, agents and employees of each such controlling Person, to the fullest extent permitted
by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs
(including, without limitation, reasonable costs of preparation and investigation and reasonable
attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, that arise out of or are based
upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration
Statement, any Prospectus or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto (it
being understood that the Holder has approved Annex A hereto for this purpose) or in any
preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the
case of any Prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made) not misleading, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that (A)
such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based solely
upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly
for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder or such Holder’s
proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and approved by such
Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement, such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus
or in any amendment or supplement thereto (it being understood that each Holder has approved
Annex A hereto for this purpose), (B) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type
specified in Section 3(c)(iii)-(vi), related to the use by a Holder of an outdated or defective
Prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing that the Prospectus is outdated or
defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder of the Advice contemplated and defined in Section
6(f) below, but only if and to the extent that following the receipt of the Advice the misstatement
or omission giving rise to such Loss would have been corrected or (C) any such Losses arise out of
the Purchaser’s (or any other indemnified Person’s) failure to send or give a copy of the
Prospectus or supplement (as then amended or supplemented) to the Persons asserting an untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission
at or

11

 

prior to the written confirmation of the sale of Registrable Securities to such Person if
such statement or omission was corrected in such Prospectus or supplement. The Company shall
notify the Holders
promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding arising from or in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement of which the Company is aware.
Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on
behalf of an Indemnified Party (as defined in Section 5(c)) and shall survive the transfer of the
Registrable Securities by the Holders.

          (b) Indemnification by Holders. Each Holder shall, notwithstanding any termination of
this Agreement, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors,
officers, agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section
15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents
or employees of such controlling Persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from
and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or any form
of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or
arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus, or any
form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made)
not misleading (i) to the extent, but only to the extent that, such untrue statements or omissions
are based solely upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such
Holder expressly for use therein, (ii) to the extent that such information relates to such Holder
or such Holder’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and
approved by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement (it being understood that
the Holder has approved Annex A hereto for this purpose), such Prospectus or such form of
Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (iii) in the case of an occurrence of an
event of the type specified in Section 3(c)(iii)-(vi), to the extent related to the use by such
Holder of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing
that the Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder of the Advice
contemplated in Section 6(f). In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder hereunder be
greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale
of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

          (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding shall be brought or
asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”), such
Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying
Party”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense thereof,
including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the
payment of all reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided,
that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying
Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent
that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is
not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have proximately and materially
adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

          An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding
and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at
the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in
writing to pay such fees and expenses; (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to
assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any such Proceeding
(including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party,
and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest exists if
the same counsel were to represent such

12

 

Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which
case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ
separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying
Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such
counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party); provided, that the Indemnifying Party
shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any
time for all Indemnified Parties. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of
any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, delayed or conditioned. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent
of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any
Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such
Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.

          Subject to the terms of this Agreement, all fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party
(including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or
preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid
to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within twenty Trading Days of written notice thereof to the
Indemnifying Party; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying
Party for that portion of such fees and expenses applicable to such actions for which such
Indemnified Party is finally judicially determined to not be entitled to indemnification
hereunder). The failure to deliver written notice to the Indemnifying Party within a reasonable
time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party of any
liability to the Indemnified Party under this Section 5, except to the extent that the Indemnifying
Party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action..

          (d) Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section 5(a) or 5(b) is
unavailable to an Indemnified Party (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each
Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount
paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in
connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and
Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in
question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or
alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied
by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission.
The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject
to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, any reasonable attorneys’ or other reasonable fees
or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would
have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section
was available to such party in accordance with its terms.

          The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to
this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that
does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(d), (A) no Holder shall be required to
contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds actually
received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding
exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of
such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission and (B) no contribution
will be made under circumstances where the maker of such contribution would not have been required
to indemnify the Indemnified Party under the fault standards set forth in this Section 5. No
person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation

13

 

(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.

          The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any
liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties and are not in
diminution or limitation of the indemnification provisions under the Purchase Agreement.

     6. Miscellaneous.

          (a) Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder of any of their
obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the Company, as the case may be, in addition to
being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including recovery
of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The
Company and each Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation for any
losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby
further agrees that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach,
it shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

          (b) No Piggyback on Registrations. Except and to the extent specified in Schedule
3.1(y) to the Purchase Agreement, neither the Company nor any of its security holders (other than
the Holders in such capacity pursuant hereto) may include securities of the Company in a
Registration Statement other than the Registrable Securities, and the Company shall not prior to
the Effective Date enter into any agreement providing any such right to any of its security
holders.

          (c) Entire Agreement. This Agreement is intended by the parties as a final expression
of their agreement and intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and
understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein. This
Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to
such subject matter, except for, and as provided in the Transaction Documents.

          (d) Compliance. Each Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the
prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it (unless an exemption
therefrom is available) in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the
Registration Statement and shall sell the Registrable Securities only in accordance with a method
of distribution described in the Registration Statement.

          (e) Suspension of Trading. At any time after the Registrable Securities are covered by
an effective Registration Statement, the Company may deliver to the Holders of such Registrable
Securities a certificate (the “Suspension Certificate”) approved by the Chief Executive Officer or
Chief Financial Officer of the Company and signed by an officer of the Company stating that the
effectiveness of and sales of Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement would:

               (i) materially interfere with any transaction that would require the Company to prepare
financial statements under the Securities Act that the Company would otherwise not be required to
prepare in order to comply with its obligations under the Exchange Act, or

               (ii) require public disclosure of a material transaction or event prior to the time such
disclosure might otherwise be required.

Upon receipt of a Suspension Certificate by Holders of Registrable Securities, such Holders of
Registrable Securities shall refrain from selling or otherwise transferring or disposing of any
Registrable

14

 

Securities then held by such Holders for a specified period of time (a “Suspension
Period”) that is customary under the circumstances (not to exceed twenty (20) days).
Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Company shall be permitted to cause Holders of
Registrable Securities to so refrain from
selling or otherwise transferring or disposing of any Registrable Securities on only two (2)
occasions during each twelve (12) consecutive month period that the Registration Statement remains
effective with no less than twenty (20) calendar days in between Suspension Periods. The Company
may impose stop transfer instructions to enforce any required agreement of the Holders under this
Section 6(e).

          (f) Discontinued Disposition. Each Holder further agrees by its acquisition of such
Registrable Securities that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of any
event of the kind described in Section 3(c)(iii)-(vi), such Holder will forthwith discontinue
disposition of such Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement until it is advised in
writing (the “Advice”) by the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus (as it may have
been supplemented or amended) may be resumed. The Company may provide appropriate stop orders to
enforce the provisions of this paragraph. The Company agrees and acknowledges that any periods
during which the Holder is required to discontinue the disposition of the Registrable Securities
hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of Section 2(c) as qualified by Section 3(a).

          (g) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the
provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified, supplemented or waived unless the same
shall be in writing and signed by the Company and Holders holding a majority of the then
outstanding Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart
from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of
Holders and that does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders may be given by
Holders of all of the Registrable Securities to which such waiver or consent relates; provided,
however, that the provisions of this sentence may not be amended, modified or supplemented except
in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence.

          (h) Term. The registration rights provided to the Holders of Registrable Securities
hereunder, and the Company’s obligation to keep the Registration Statements effective, shall
terminate at such time as there are no Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Section 2(c), Section 4, Section 5, Section 6(i), Section 6(l), Section 6(m), Section 6(n), Section
6(o), Section 6(p) and Section 6(q) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

          (i) Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or
permitted to be provided hereunder shall be delivered as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

          (j) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties and shall inure to the
benefit of each Holder. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon
any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns any rights,
remedies, obligations, or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly
provided in this Agreement. The Company may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder without
the prior written consent of all the Holders of the then outstanding Registrable Securities (other
than by merger or consolidation or to an entity which acquires the Company including by way of
acquiring all or substantially all of the Company’s assets). The rights of the Holders hereunder,
including the right to have the Company register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement,
may be assigned by each Holder to transferees or assignees of all or any portion of the Registrable
Securities, but only if (i) the Holder agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign
such rights and related obligations under this Agreement, and for the transferee or assignee to
assume such obligations, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within a
reasonable time after such assignment, (ii) the Company is, within a reasonable time

15

 

after such
transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or
assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or
assigned, (iii) at or before the time the Company received the written notice contemplated by
clause (ii) of this sentence, the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by
all of the provisions contained herein and (iv) the transferee is an “accredited investor,” as that
term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D.

          (k) Execution and Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and, all of which
taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement and shall become effective when
counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood
that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered
by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall
create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is
executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature were the original
thereof.

          (l) Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement
and interpretation of this Agreement shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the
Purchase Agreement.

          (m) Cumulative Remedies. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not
exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

          (n) Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the
remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in
full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties
hereto shall use their reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the
same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or
restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they
would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including
any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

          (o) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only
and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

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

16

 

Company acknowledges that each of the Purchasers has been provided with the same
Registration Rights Agreement for the purpose of closing a transaction with multiple Purchasers and
not because it was required or requested to do so by any Purchaser.

          (q) Currency. Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts referred to in this
Agreement are in United States Dollars. All amounts owing under this Agreement are in United
States Dollars. All amounts denominated in other currencies shall be converted in the United
States Dollar equivalent amount in accordance with the applicable exchange rate in effect on the
date of calculation.

          (r) Further Assurances. The parties shall execute and deliver all such further
instruments and documents and take all such other actions as may reasonably be required to carry
out the transactions contemplated hereby and to evidence the fulfillment of the agreements herein
contained.

Annex A

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

     We are registering the shares of common stock issued to the selling stockholders and issuable
upon exercise of the warrants issued to the selling stockholders to permit the resale of these
shares of common stock by the holders of the shares of common stock and warrants from time to time
after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the
selling stockholders of the shares of common stock. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to
our obligation to register the shares of common stock.

     The selling stockholders may sell all or a portion of the shares of common stock beneficially
owned by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or through one or more underwriters,
broker-dealers or agents. If the shares of common stock are sold through underwriters or
broker-dealers, the selling stockholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or
commissions or agent’s commissions. The shares of common stock may be sold on any national
securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the
time of sale, in the over-the-counter market or in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges
or systems or in the over-the-counter market and in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at
prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale,
or at negotiated prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or
block transactions. The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when
selling shares:

	•	 	ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

	•	 	block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion
of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

	•	 	purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

	•	 	an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

	•	 	privately negotiated transactions;

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

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

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

	•	 	a combination of any such methods of sale; and

	•	 	any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

     The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market
transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as permitted by that rule, or
Section 4(1) under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus, provided
that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of those provisions.

 

 

     Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to
participate in sales. If the selling stockholders effect such transactions by selling shares of
common stock to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters,
broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or
commissions from the selling stockholders or commissions from purchasers of the shares of common
stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal. Such commissions will
be in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the
case of an agency transaction will not be in excess of a customary brokerage commission in
compliance with NASD Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in
compliance with NASD IM-2440.

     In connection with sales of the shares of common stock or otherwise, the selling stockholders
may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may
in turn engage in short sales of the shares of common stock in the course of hedging in positions
they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of common stock short and if such short
sale shall take place after the date that this Registration Statement is declared effective by the
Commission, the selling stockholders may deliver shares of common stock covered by this prospectus
to close out short positions and to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales.
The selling stockholders may also loan or pledge shares of common stock to broker-dealers that in
turn may sell such shares, to the extent permitted by applicable law. The selling stockholders may
also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or
the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer
or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such
broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as
supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the selling
stockholders have been advised that they may not use shares registered on this registration
statement to cover short sales of our common stock made prior to the date the registration
statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, has been declared effective by the SEC.

     The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some
or all of the warrants or shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the
performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the
shares of common stock from time to time pursuant to this prospectus or any amendment to this
prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, amending, if necessary, the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee,
transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The
selling stockholders also may transfer and donate the shares of common stock in other circumstances
in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling
beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

     The selling stockholders and any broker-dealer or agents participating in the distribution of
the shares of common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11)
of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions paid, or any
discounts or concessions allowed to, any such broker-dealer or agent and any profit on the resale
of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the
Securities Act. Selling Stockholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of
the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act
and may be subject to certain statutory liabilities of, including but not limited to, Sections 11,
12 and 17 of the Securities Act and Rule 10b-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, or the Exchange Act.

     Each selling stockholder has informed the Company that it is not a registered broker-dealer
and does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any
person to distribute the common stock. Upon the Company being notified in writing by a selling
stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale
of common stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary
distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if
required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act,

 

 

disclosing (i) the name of each such selling stockholder and of the participating
broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such the shares of
common stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such
broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any
investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus,
and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive
fees, commissions and markups, which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).

     Under the securities laws of some states, the shares of common stock may be sold in such
states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the
shares of common stock may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for
sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied
with.

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

     Each selling stockholder and any other person participating in such distribution will be
subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules
and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which
may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of common stock by the selling
stockholder and any other participating person. Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any
person engaged in the distribution of the shares of common stock to engage in market-making
activities with respect to the shares of common stock. All of the foregoing may affect the
marketability of the shares of common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in
market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock.

     We will pay all expenses of the registration of the shares of common stock pursuant to the
registration rights agreement, including, without limitation, Securities and Exchange Commission
filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws; provided, however,
that each selling stockholder will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any,
and any legal expenses incurred by it. We will indemnify the selling stockholders against certain
liabilities, including some liabilities under the Securities Act, in accordance with a registration
rights agreement, or the selling stockholders will be entitled to contribution. We may be
indemnified by the selling stockholders against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act, that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the selling
stockholders specifically for use in this prospectus, in accordance with the related registration
rights agreements, or we may be entitled to contribution.

supplements thereto filed with the Commission pursuant to the Securities Act.

The undersigned hereby acknowledges and is advised of the following Interpretation A.65 of the
July 1997 SEC Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations regarding short selling:

“An Issuer filed a Form S-3 registration statement for a secondary offering of common stock
which is not yet effective. One of the selling stockholders wanted to do a short sale of common
stock “against the box” and cover the short sale with registered shares after the effective date.
The issuer was advised that the short sale could not be made before the registration statement
become effective, because
the shares underlying the short sale are deemed to be sold at the time such sale is made.
There would, therefore, be a violation of Section 5 if the shares were effectively sold prior to
the effective date.”

By returning this Questionnaire, the undersigned will be deemed to be aware of the foregoing
interpretation.

I confirm that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the foregoing statements (including without
limitation the answers to this Questionnaire) are correct.

 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the undersigned, by authority duly given, has caused this Questionnaire to be
executed and delivered either in person or by its duly authorized agent.

Exhibit 10.1

SECOND AMENDMENT TO

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     This Second Amendment to Employment Agreement (“Second Amendment”) is entered into as of June
8, 2007 (the “Effective Date”) as a Second Amendment to the Employment Agreement entered into by
and between Tesoro Corporation (the “Company”) and Gregory A. Wright (the “Executive”) as of August
3, 2004 (the “Employment Agreement”), as amended by that certain First Amendment to Employment
Agreement dated as of February 2, 2006 (the “First Amendment”) by and between the Company and the
Executive.

W I T N E S S E T H:

     WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive have previously entered into the Employment Agreement
and the First Amendment;

     WHEREAS, effective as of June 8, 2007, the Executive received a promotion from Executive Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer to Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer;
and

     WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive wish to further amend the Employment Agreement by
entering into this Second Amendment so as to (i) reflect the Executive’s promotion from Executive
Vice President and Chief Financial Officer to Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative
Officer and change (ii) the amount of certain fee reimbursements to the Executive;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, covenants and conditions set
forth herein including, but not limited to, the Executive’s employment and the payments and
benefits described herein, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company and the
Executive hereby agree as follows:

     1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Second Amendment
shall have the meaning set forth in the Employment Agreement.

     2. Amendments.

     (a) All references in the Employment Agreement to “Chief Financial Officer” are hereby amended
to read “Chief Administrative Officer”. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Employment Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

(i) The first recital set forth in the Employment Agreement under
“WITNESSETH” is hereby amended to read, in its entirety, as follows:

“WHEREAS, the Company wishes to employ the Executive as its
Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer and the
Executive wishes to continue such employment; and”

1

 

(ii) Section 3(a) of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended to read, in
its entirety, as follows:

(a) Executive shall serve as Executive Vice President and Chief
Administrative Officer of the Company. In such capacities,
Executive shall perform such duties and have the power, authority
and functions commensurate with such positions in similarly sized
public companies and such other authority and functions consistent
with such positions as may be assigned to Executive from time to
time by the Chief Executive Officer.

     (b) Section 4(a) of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended to read, in its entirety, as
follows:

     (a) ANNUAL BASE SALARY. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall
receive an annual base salary (the “Annual Base Salary”) at an annual rate of
$608,000 less applicable taxes, or such higher rate as may be determined from time
to time by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board). The annual Base
Salary shall be paid at such intervals as the Company pays executive salaries
generally. During the Employment Period, the Annual Base Salary shall be reviewed
at least annually, beginning no more than 12 months after the last salary increase
awarded to the Executive prior to the Effective Date. Any increase in the Annual
Base Salary shall not serve to limit or reduce any other obligation to the Executive
under this Agreement. The Annual Base Salary shall not be reduced after any such
increase and the term “Annual Base Salary” shall refer to the Annual Base Salary as
so increased.

     (c) Section 4(e) of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended to read, in its entirety, as
follows:

     (e) FEE REIMBURSEMENTS.

     The Company will reimburse the Executive as provided in the Company’s policies
and procedures for an initiation fee or fees and dues for a country, luncheon or
social club or clubs. In addition, the Company will reimburse the Executive for
additional initiation fees to the extent the Board of Directors or a duly authorized
committee thereof determines such fees are reasonable and in the best interest of
the Company.

     3. Acknowledgement and Waiver. The Company and the Executive acknowledge and agree
that the promotion of the Executive from Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer to
Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer and the related change in his positions,
duties and responsibilities shall not be deemed to constitute (i) a material diminution of
Executive’s positions, duties or responsibilities under the Employment Agreement or the assignment
to the Executive of duties or responsibilities that are inconsistent with the Executive’s position,
(ii) the removal of the Executive from officer positions with the Company specified in the
Employment Agreement, or (iii) a material breach by the Company of any

2

 

provision of the Employment Agreement, for purposes of the definition of “Good Reason” set
forth in the Employment Agreement. The Executive hereby irrevocably waives any claim that the
promotion from Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer to Executive Vice President and
Chief Administrative Officer constitutes Good Reason under the terms of the Employment Agreement.

     4. Employment Agreement Remains in Full Force and Effect. Except as expressly amended
by this Second Amendment, the Employment Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, shall remain
in full force and effect and all of the terms of the Employment Agreement, as amended by the First
Amendment, are hereby incorporated into this Second Amendment.

     5. Governing Law. This Second Amendment shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Texas applicable to agreements made and to be performed in
that State, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions.

     6. Miscellaneous.

     (a) Waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Second
Amendment on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver thereof or deprive that party of the
right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Second
Amendment.

     (b) Separability. If any term or provision of this Second Amendment is declared illegal or
unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, and cannot be modified to be enforceable,
such term or provision shall immediately become null and void, leaving the remainder of this Second
