REGISTRATION RIGHTS

2.1   Registration Statement.

2.1.1  Company to File Registration Statement.

 

2

(a)   As soon as practicable following, and in no event later than 30 days after, the expiration of the Lock-Up Period (as defined in the Subscription Agreement), the Company shall file a registration statement under Rule 415 of the Securities Act (or a successor rule) (a “Shelf Registration Statement”) for a public offering of all (but not less than all) of the Registrable Shares.  If, at any time that there are outstanding Registrable Shares, any Shelf Registration Statement covering such Registrable Shares should cease to be effective for any reason, then, subject to Section 2.1.1(b), the Company shall file another Shelf Registration Statement for a public offering of all (but not less than all) of the Registrable Shares. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause each Shelf Registration Statement referred to in this Section 2.1.1(a) to be declared effective by the SEC as promptly as practicable after such filing and to maintain the effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement.

(b)   If the Company is unable to file, cause to be effective or maintain the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement as required under Section 2.1.1(a), each Holder shall have the right by delivering a written notice to the Company (a “Demand Notice”) to require the Company to register under the Securities Act the number of Registrable Shares held by such Holder and requested by such Demand Notice to be so registered (a “Demand Registration”).  A Demand Notice shall also specify the expected method or methods of disposition of the applicable Registrable Shares.  Following receipt of a Demand Notice, the Company shall file, as promptly as reasonably practicable, but not later than 60 days after receipt by the Company of such Demand Notice, a registration statement relating to the offer and sale of the Registrable Shares requested to be included therein by the Holders in accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in such Demand Notice and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof.

(c)   No Holder may participate in any registration statement pursuant to Section 2.1.1(a) or (b) unless such Holder completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents and delivers all legal opinions reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements; provided, however, that no such Holder shall be required to make any representations or warranties in connection with any such registration other than representations and warranties as to (i) such Holder’s ownership of his or its Registrable Shares to be transferred free and clear of all liens, claims, and encumbrances, (ii) such Holder’s power and authority to effect such transfer, and (iii) such matters pertaining to compliance with securities laws as may be reasonably requested; provided, further, however, that the obligation of such Holder to indemnify pursuant to any such underwriting arrangements shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders selling Registrable Shares, and the liability of each such Holder will be in proportion thereto, and provided, further, that such liability will be limited to the net amount received by such Holder from the sale of his or its Registrable Shares pursuant to such registration (after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions).

2.1.2  Deferral of Filing.  The Company may defer the filing (but not the preparation) of a registration statement required by this Section 2.1 until a date not later than sixty (60) days after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period if at the time of the expiration of the Lock-Up Period and for two weeks thereafter, the Company is engaged in confidential negotiations or other confidential business activities, disclosure of which would be required in such registration statement (but would not be required if such registration statement were not filed), and the Board of Directors of the Company or a committee of the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith that such disclosure would be materially detrimental to the Company and its shareholders.  A deferral of the filing of a registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.1.2 shall be lifted, and the registration statement shall be filed forthwith, if the negotiations or other activities are disclosed or terminated.  In order to defer the filing of a registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.1.2, the Company shall promptly (but in any event within ten (10) days), upon determining to seek such deferral, deliver to the Investor a certificate signed by an executive officer of the Company stating that the Company is deferring such filing pursuant to this Section 2.1.2 and a general statement of the reason for such deferral and an approximation of the anticipated delay (subject to the execution of a confidentiality agreement if required by law or contract).

 

3

2.1.3.  Shelf Takedowns.  In the event that the Company files a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.1.1 and such registration statement becomes effective, the Holders shall have the right at any time or from time to time to elect to sell all or a specified part of their Registrable Shares in any manner described under “Plan of Distribution” in such registration statement, including pursuant to an underwritten offering of Registrable Shares available for sale pursuant to such registration statement (“Shelf Registrable Shares”).  A Holder shall make such election with respect to an underwritten offering by delivering to the Company a written request (a “Shelf Underwriting Request”) for such underwritten offering to the Company specifying the number of Shelf Registrable Shares that the Holder(s) desire(s) to sell pursuant to such underwritten offering (the “Shelf Underwriting”); provided that the Shelf Underwriting Request shall provide for the sale of no less than $10 million of Registrable Shares.  As promptly as practicable, but no later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of a Shelf Underwriting Request, the Company shall give written notice (the “Shelf Underwriting Notice”) of such Shelf Underwriting Request to all other Holders.  The Company shall include in such Shelf Underwriting (x) the Registrable Shares of the Holder(s) making such Shelf Underwriting Request and (y) the Shelf Registrable Shares of any other Holder of Shelf Registrable Shares which shall have made a written request to the Company for inclusion in such Shelf Underwriting (which request shall specify the maximum number of Shelf Registrable Shares intended to be disposed of by such Holder) within five (5) days after the receipt of the Shelf Underwriting Notice.  The Company shall as expeditiously as possible (and in any event within 20 days after the receipt of a Shelf Underwriting Request) facilitate such Shelf Underwriting.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Holder wishes to engage in an underwritten block trade off of a Shelf Registration Statement, then notwithstanding the foregoing time periods, the Holder only needs to notify the Company of the block trade Shelf Underwriting on the day such offering is to commence and the Company shall notify other Holders on the same day and other Holders must elect whether or not to participate on the day such offering is to commence, and the Company shall as expeditiously as possible facilitate such Shelf Underwriting, provided that the Holder requesting such underwritten block trade shall use reasonable best efforts to work with the Company and the underwriters prior to making such request in order to facilitate preparation of the registration statement, prospectus supplement and other offering documentation related to the underwritten block trade.  The Company shall, at the request of any Holder of Registrable Shares registered on such Shelf Registration Statement, file any prospectus supplement, any post-effective amendments and otherwise take any action necessary to include therein all disclosure and language deemed necessary or advisable by any Holder of Registrable Shares registered on such Shelf Registration Statement to effect such Shelf Underwriting.  Once a Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective, the Holders of Registrable Shares may request, and the Company shall facilitate, an unlimited number of Shelf Underwritings with respect to such Shelf Registration Statement.  In connection with any Shelf Underwriting, the Company shall follow the applicable procedures set forth in Section 2.3.

2.1.4  Cutbacks.  No securities to be sold for the account of the Company, or any other Person that is not a Holder, shall be included in a Shelf Underwriting or Demand Registration, as applicable, unless the managing underwriter or underwriters shall advise the Holders in writing that the inclusion of such securities will not adversely affect the price, timing or distribution of the offering or otherwise adversely affect its success (an “Adverse Effect”).  Furthermore, if the managing underwriter or underwriters shall advise the Holders that, even after exclusion of all securities of other Persons pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the amount of Registrable Shares requested  to be included in such Shelf Underwriting or Demand Registration, as applicable, by Holders is sufficiently large to cause an Adverse Effect, the Registrable Shares to be offered by such requesting Holders in the Shelf Underwriting or Demand Registration, as the case may be, shall be reduced pro rata such that each such Holder shall be permitted to include a number of Registrable Shares in the offering equal to (x) the maximum number of Registrable Shares that may be offered in such offering without causing an Adverse Effect multiplied by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Registrable Shares proposed by such Holder to be included in the offering and the denominator of which is the total number of Registrable Shares proposed by all Holders to be included in such offering.

2.1.5  Selection of Underwriters.  The Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares being offered in connection with a Shelf Underwriting or Demand Registration, as applicable, shall select the underwriters for the offering.

2.2   Registration Procedures.  The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration and the sale of Registrable Shares in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof as promptly as is practicable, and pursuant thereto the Company will as promptly as practicable:

(i)         prepare and file with the SEC, pursuant to Section 2.1.1(a) or (b), as applicable, a registration statement on any appropriate form under the Securities Act with respect to such Registrable Shares (provided that a registration pursuant to Section 2.1.1(a) shall be effected pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement), provided that as far in advance as practicable before filing such registration statement or any amendment thereto, the Company will furnish to the Investor copies of reasonably complete drafts of all such documents prepared to be filed (including exhibits), and the Investor shall have the opportunity to object to any information contained therein and the Company will make corrections reasonably requested by the Investor with respect to such information prior to filing any such registration statement or amendment;

 

4

(ii)        prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Shares subject thereto;

(iii)       furnish to each seller of Registrable Shares and the underwriters of the securities being registered such number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus), any documents incorporated by reference therein and such other documents as such seller or underwriters may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Shares owned by such seller or the sale of such securities by such underwriters (it being understood that, subject to Section 2.4 and the requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, the Company consents to the use of the prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto by each seller and the underwriters in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Shares covered by the registration statement of which such prospectus, amendment or supplement is a part);

(iv)      use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Shares under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions as the managing underwriter reasonably requests (or, in the event the registration statement does not relate to an underwritten offering, as the holders of a majority of such Registrable Shares may reasonably request); and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable each seller to consummate the disposition of the Registrable Shares owned by such seller in such jurisdictions (provided, however, that the Company will not be required to (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subparagraph or (B) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction);

(v)       promptly notify the Investor and confirm such notice in writing (A) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed and, with respect to a registration statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective, (B) of the issuance by any state securities or other regulatory authority of any order suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Shares under state securities or “blue sky” laws or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, and (C) of the happening of any event which makes any statement made in a registration statement or related prospectus untrue or which requires the making of any changes in such registration statement, prospectus or documents so that they 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and, as promptly as practicable thereafter, prepare and file with the SEC and furnish a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter deliverable to the purchasers of such Registrable Shares, such prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(vi)      make reasonably available members of management of the Company, as selected by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares included in such registration, for assistance in the selling effort relating to the Registrable Shares covered by such registration, including, but not limited to, the participation of such members of the Company’s management in road show presentations;

(vii)     otherwise comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, including the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and make generally available to the Company’s security holders an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act no later than thirty (30) days after the end of the twelve (12) month period beginning with the first day of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of a registration statement, which earnings statement shall cover said twelve (12) month period;

 

5

(viii)    if requested by the managing underwriter or any seller, promptly incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the managing underwriter or any seller reasonably requests to be included therein, including, without limitation, with respect to the Registrable Shares being sold by such seller, the purchase price being paid therefor by the underwriters and with respect to any other terms of the underwritten offering of the Registrable Shares to be sold in such offering, and promptly make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment;

(ix)       cooperate with the sellers and the managing underwriter to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (which shall not bear any restrictive legends unless required under applicable law) representing securities sold under any registration statement, and enable such securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the managing underwriter or such sellers may request and keep available and make available to the Company’s transfer agent prior to the effectiveness of such registration statement a supply of such certificates;

(x)        promptly make available for inspection by any seller, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to any registration statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent or representative retained by any such seller or underwriter (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the “Records”), as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information requested by any such Inspector in connection with such registration statement; provided, however, that, unless the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in the registration statement or the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction, the Company shall not be required to provide any information under this subparagraph (x) if (A) the Company believes, after consultation with counsel for the Company, that to do so would cause the Company to forfeit an attorney-client privilege that was applicable to such information or (B) if either (1) the Company has requested and been granted from the SEC confidential treatment of such information contained in any filing with the SEC or documents provided supplementally or otherwise or (2) the Company reasonably determines in good faith that such Records are confidential and so notifies the Inspectors in writing, unless prior to furnishing any such information with respect to this clause (B) such Holder of Registrable Shares requesting such information agrees to enter into a confidentiality agreement in customary form and subject to customary exceptions; and provided, further, that each Holder of Registrable Shares agrees that it will, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in a court of competent jurisdiction, give notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action and to seek to prevent disclosure of the Records deemed confidential;

(xi)       furnish to each seller and underwriter (on the date such securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale pursuant to such registration or, if such securities are not being sold through underwriters, on the date the registration statement with respect to such securities becomes effective), a signed counterpart of (A) an opinion or opinions of counsel to the Company, and (B) a comfort letter or comfort letters from the Company’s independent public accountants, each in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by opinions or comfort letters, as the case may be, as the sellers or managing underwriter reasonably requests;

(xii)      use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registrable Shares included in any registration statement to be listed on each securities exchange, if any, on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed;

6

(xix)     advise each seller of such Registrable Shares, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance of any stop order by the SEC suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and promptly use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal at the earliest possible moment if such stop order should be issued; and

(xx)      take all other steps that are reasonably necessary or advisable to effect the registration of the Registrable Shares contemplated.

2.3   Suspension of Dispositions.  Each Holder agrees by acquisition of any Registrable Shares that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 2.2(v)(C) such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Shares until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus, or until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings which are incorporated by reference in the prospectus, and, if so directed by the Company, such Holder will deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Shares current at the time of receipt of such notice.  The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts and take such actions as are reasonably necessary to render the Advice as promptly as practicable.

2.4   Registration Expenses.  All fees and expenses incident to any registration statement including, without limitation, the Company’s performance of or compliance with this Article 2, all registration and filing fees, all fees and expenses associated with filings required to be made with FINRA, as may be required by the rules and regulations of FINRA, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or “blue sky” laws (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with “blue sky” qualifications of the Registrable Shares), rating agency fees, printing expenses (including expenses of printing certificates for the Registrable Shares in a form eligible for deposit with the Depository Trust Company and of printing prospectuses if the printing of prospectuses is requested by a Holder of Registrable Shares), messenger and delivery expenses, the fees and expenses incurred in connection with any listing or quotation of the Registrable Shares, fees and expenses of counsel for the Company and its independent certified public accountants (including the expenses of any special audit or “cold comfort” letters required by or incident to such performance), the fees and expenses of any special experts retained by the Company in connection with such registration, the fees and expenses of other persons retained by the Company and the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel for all the Holders in such registration as a group (selected by Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares included in such registration), will be borne by the Company (unless paid by a security holder that is not a Holder for whose account the registration is being effected) whether or not any registration statement becomes effective; provided, however, that any underwriting discounts, commissions, or fees attributable to the sale of the Registrable Shares will be borne by the Holders pro rata on the basis of the number of shares so registered and the fees and expenses of any counsel (except as provided for under this Section 2.4), accountants, or other persons retained or employed by any Holder will be borne by such Holder; provided, further that the Company shall not be required to pay the fees and expenses of counsel to the Holders in connection with more than two (2) offerings of Registrable Shares.

2.5   Indemnification.

 

7

2.5.1  The Company agrees to indemnify and reimburse, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each seller of Registrable Shares, and each of its employees, advisors, agents, representatives, partners, officers, and directors and each Person who controls such seller (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and any agent or investment advisor thereof (collectively, the “Seller Affiliates”) (A) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses, joint or several (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements except as limited by Section 2.5.3) based upon, arising out of, related to or resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, issuer free writing prospectus (as such term is defined in Rule 433 of the Securities Act), notification or offering circular or any other such disclosure document (including reports and other documents filed under the Exchange Act and any document incorporated by reference therein) or other document or report, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (B) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage, and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation or investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon, arising out of, related to or resulting from any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission, and (C) against any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) as may be reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing, or defending against any litigation, or investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon, arising out of, related to or resulting from any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission, or such violation of the Securities Act or Exchange Act, to the extent that any such expense or cost is not paid under subparagraph (A) or (B) above; except insofar as any such statements are made in reliance upon and in strict conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such seller or any Seller Affiliate for use therein or arise from such seller’s or any Seller Affiliate’s failure to deliver a copy of the registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto after the Company has furnished such seller or Seller Affiliate with a sufficient number of copies of the same.  The reimbursements required by this Section 2.5.1 will be made by periodic payments during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expenses incurred.

2.5.2  In connection with any registration statement in which a seller of Registrable Shares is participating, each such seller will furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such registration statement or prospectus and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each such seller will indemnify the Company and each of its employees, advisors, agents, representatives, partners, officers and directors and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and any agent or investment advisor thereof against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements except as limited by Section 2.5.3) resulting from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus, or any preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such seller or any of its Seller Affiliates specifically for inclusion in the registration statement; provided that the obligation to indemnify will be several, not joint and several, among such sellers of Registrable Shares, and the liability of each such seller of Registrable Shares will be in proportion to, and will be limited to, the net amount received by such seller from the sale of Registrable Shares pursuant to such registration statement (after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions); provided, however, that such seller of Registrable Shares shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that prior to the filing of any such registration statement or prospectus or amendment thereof or supplement thereto, such seller has furnished in writing to the Company information expressly for use in such registration statement or prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto which corrected or made not misleading information previously furnished to the Company.

 

8

2.5.3  Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (A) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give such notice shall not limit the rights of such Person) and (B) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided, however, that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such person unless (X) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses, or (Y) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person.  If such defense is not assumed by the indemnifying party as permitted hereunder, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).  If such defense is assumed by the indemnifying party pursuant to the provisions hereof, such indemnifying party shall not settle or otherwise compromise the applicable claim unless (1) such settlement or compromise contains a full and unconditional release of the indemnified party or (2) the indemnified party otherwise consents in writing.  An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one outside counsel (and any applicable local counsel) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party, a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such additional counsel or counsels.

2.5.4  Each party hereto agrees that, if for any reason the indemnification provisions contemplated by Section 2.5.1 or Section 2.5.2 are unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, liabilities, or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the actions which resulted in the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses 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 the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact 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 statement or omission.  The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.5.4 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders or any underwriters or all of them were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 2.5.4.  The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or, except as provided in Section 2.5.3, defending any such action or claim.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.5.4, no Holder shall be required to contribute an amount greater than the dollar amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holder with respect to the sale of any Registrable Shares (after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions) exceeds the amount of damages which such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any and all untrue or alleged untrue statements of material fact or omissions or alleged omissions of material fact made in any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto related to such sale of Registrable Shares.  No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.  The Holders’ obligations in this Section 2.5.4 to contribute shall be several in proportion to the amount of Registrable Shares registered by them and not joint.

If indemnification is available under this Section 2.5, the indemnifying parties shall indemnify each indemnified party to the full extent provided in Section 2.5.1 and Section 2.5.2 without regard to the relative fault of said indemnifying party or indemnified party or any other equitable consideration provided for in this Section 2.5.4 subject, in the case of the Holders, to the limited dollar amounts set forth in Section 2.5.2.

2.5.5  The indemnification and contribution provided for under this Agreement will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director, or controlling Person of such indemnified party and will survive the transfer of securities or any termination of this Agreement.

2.7   Rule 144.  The Company will file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder (or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, will, upon the request of the Holders, make publicly available other information) and will take such further action as the Holders may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Holders to sell Registrable Shares without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (i) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time or (ii) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC.  Upon the reasonable request of any Holder, the Company will deliver to such parties a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements and will, at its expense, forthwith upon the request of any such Holder, deliver to such Holder a certificate, signed by the Company’s principal financial officer, stating (a) the Company’s name, address and telephone number (including area code), (b) the Company’s Internal Revenue Service identification number, (c) the Company’s SEC file number, (d) the number of shares of each class of capital stock outstanding as shown by the most recent report or statement published by the Company, and (e) whether the Company has filed the reports required to be filed under the Exchange Act for a period of at least ninety (90) days prior to the date of such certificate and in addition has filed the most recent annual report required to be filed thereunder.

2.8   Preservation of Rights.  The Company hereby represents and warrants to each Holder that, as of the date hereof, the Company has not (i) granted any registration rights to third parties which are inconsistent with the rights granted hereunder or (ii) entered into any agreement, take any action, or permit any change to occur, with respect to its securities that violates or subordinates the rights expressly granted to the Holders in this Agreement.The Company will not (iii) grant any registration rights to third parties which are inconsistent with the rights granted hereunder or (iv) enter into any agreement, take any action, or permit any change to occur, with respect to its securities that violates or subordinates the rights expressly granted to the Holders in this Agreement.
