CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC., 

            388 Greenwich Street, 

            New York, NY 10013 

Dear Sirs: 

Freescale Semiconductor, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), proposes to issue and sell to
the initial purchasers named in Schedule A hereto (the “Initial Purchasers”), upon the terms set forth in a purchase agreement, dated September 22, 2010 (the “Purchase Agreement”), $750,000,000 principal amount
of its 10 3/4% Senior Notes due 2020 (the
“Initial Securities”) to be unconditionally guaranteed (the “Guaranties”) by (u) Freescale Semiconductor Holdings I, Ltd. (“Holdings I”), (v) Freescale Semiconductor Holdings II, Ltd.
(“Holdings II”), (w) Freescale Semiconductor Holdings III, Ltd. (“Holdings III”), (x) Freescale Semiconductor Holdings IV, Ltd. (“Holdings IV”), (y) Freescale Semiconductor Holdings
V, Inc (“Holdings V”) and (z) SigmaTel, LLC (“SigmaTel”) (collectively the “Guarantors” and, together with the Issuer, the “Company”). The Initial Securities will be issued
pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of September 30, 2010 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”). To the
extent there are no additional Initial Purchasers listed on Schedule A other than you, the term Initial Purchasers shall mean either the singular or plural as the context requires. As an inducement to the Initial Purchasers, the Company agrees with
the Initial Purchasers, for the benefit of the holders of the Initial Securities (including, without limitation, the Initial Purchasers), the Exchange Securities (as defined below) and the Private Exchange Securities (as defined below) (collectively
the “Holders”), as follows: 
 1. Registered Exchange Offer. To the extent permitted by
applicable law or interpretations of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), the Company shall, at its own cost, use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the Commission one or
more registration statements 
  

 1 

 
(collectively, the “Exchange Offer Registration Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with
respect to a proposed offer (the “Registered Exchange Offer”) to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 6 hereof), who are not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating
in the Registered Exchange Offer, to issue and deliver to such Holders, in exchange for the Initial Securities, a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities (the “Exchange Securities”) of the Issuer issued under the
Indenture and identical in all material respects to the Initial Securities surrendered by such Holder (except for the transfer restrictions relating to the Initial Securities and the provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6
hereof) that would be registered under the Securities Act. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act and shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to keep the Registered Exchange Offer open for not less than 20 business days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the Holders (such period being
called the “Exchange Offer Registration Period”). 
 If the Company effects the Registered Exchange Offer, the
Company will be entitled to close the Registered Exchange Offer 21 days after the commencement thereof provided that the Company has accepted all the Initial Securities theretofore validly tendered and not withdrawn in accordance with the terms
of the Registered Exchange Offer. 
 Following the declaration of the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement, the Company shall as promptly as practicable commence the Registered Exchange Offer for the Initial Securities, it being the objective of such Registered Exchange Offer to enable each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities electing to
exchange the Initial Securities for Exchange Securities (assuming that such Holder is not an affiliate of the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, acquires the Exchange Securities in the ordinary course of such Holder’s business
and has no arrangements or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the Exchange Securities and is not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer) to trade such
Exchange Securities from and after their receipt without any limitations or restrictions under the Securities Act and without material restrictions under the securities laws of the several states of the United States. 

The Company acknowledges that, pursuant to current interpretations by the Commission’s staff of Section 5 of the Securities
Act, in the absence of an applicable exemption therefrom, (i) each Holder which is a broker or dealer registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (a “broker-dealer”)
electing to exchange Securities, acquired for its own account as a result of market making 
  

 2 

 
activities or other trading activities, for Exchange Securities (an “Exchanging Dealer”), is required to deliver a prospectus containing information substantially similar to that
set forth in (a) Annex A hereto on the cover, (b) Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange Offer” section, and (c) Annex C hereto in the “Plan
of Distribution” section of such prospectus in connection with a sale of any such Exchange Securities received by such Exchanging Dealer pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and (ii) an Initial Purchaser that elects to sell Exchange
Securities acquired in exchange for Securities constituting any portion of an unsold allotment is required to deliver a prospectus containing the information required by Items 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as
applicable, in connection with such sale. 
 The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement effective, subject to Sections 3(b) and 3(j) hereof, and to amend and supplement the prospectus contained therein, in order to permit such prospectus to be lawfully delivered by all persons subject to the prospectus
delivery requirements of the Securities Act for such period of time as such persons must comply with such requirements in order to resell the Exchange Securities; provided, however, that (i) in the case where such prospectus and
any amendment or supplement thereto must be delivered by an Exchanging Dealer or an Initial Purchaser, such period shall be the lesser of 90 days and the date on which all Exchanging Dealers and the Initial Purchasers have sold all Exchange
Securities held by them (unless such period is extended pursuant to Section 3(j) below) and (ii) the Company shall make such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto available to any broker-dealer, as reasonably requested by such
broker-dealer in writing for use in connection with any resale of any Exchange Securities for a period of not less than 90 days after the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer. 

If, upon consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, any Initial Purchaser holds Initial Securities acquired by it as part of its
initial distribution, the Issuer, simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange Securities pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, shall issue and deliver to such Initial Purchaser upon the written request of such Initial Purchaser, in
exchange (the “Private Exchange”) for the Initial Securities held by such Initial Purchaser, a like principal amount of debt securities of the Issuer issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects (including the
existence of restrictions on transfer under the Securities Act and the securities laws of the several states of the United States, but excluding provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6 hereof) to the Initial Securities (the
“Private Exchange Securities”). The Initial Securities, the Exchange Securities and the Private Exchange Securities are herein collectively called the “Securities”. 

 

 3 

 In connection with the Registered Exchange Offer, the Issuer shall: 

(a) mail to each Holder a copy of the prospectus forming part of the applicable Exchange Offer Registration
Statement, together with related documents, as appropriate; 
 (b) utilize the services of a depositary for
the Registered Exchange Offer, which may be the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee; 
 (c) permit
Holders to withdraw tendered Securities at any time prior to the close of business, New York time, on the last business day on which the Registered Exchange Offer shall remain open; and 

(d) otherwise comply in all material respects with all applicable laws. 

As soon as practicable after the close of the Registered Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange, the Issuer shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to: 
 (x) accept for exchange all the Initial Securities validly tendered and not
withdrawn pursuant to such Registered Exchange Offer and such Private Exchange; 
 (y) deliver to the
Trustee for cancellation all the Initial Securities so accepted for exchange; and 
 (z) cause the Trustee
to authenticate and deliver promptly to each Holder of the Initial Securities, Exchange Securities or Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, equal in principal amount to the Initial Securities of such Holder so accepted for exchange.

 The Indenture will provide that the Exchange Securities will not be subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in the
Indenture and that all the Securities issued pursuant to the Indenture will vote and consent together on all matters as one class and that none of such Securities will have the right to vote or consent as a class separate from one another on any
matter. 
 Interest on each Exchange Security and Private Exchange Security issued pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and
in each Private Exchange will accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Initial Securities surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid on the Initial Securities, from the date of original
issue of the Initial Securities. 
  

 4 

 Each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent to
the Company that at the time of the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer (i) any Exchange Securities received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of business, (ii) such Holder will have no arrangements or
understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the Securities within the meaning of the Securities Act, (iii) such Holder is not an “affiliate,” as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act, of the Company,
(iv) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer, that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the Exchange Securities and (v) if such Holder is a broker-dealer, that it will receive Exchange Securities for
its own account in exchange for Initial Securities that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and that it will be required to acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of
such Exchange Securities. 
 Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts
to ensure that (i) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto complies, at the time of filing, in all material respects with the Securities Act and the
rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) any prospectus forming part of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and any supplement to such prospectus, as of their respective dates, does not include
an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 

2. Shelf Registration. If, (i) because of any change in law or in applicable interpretations thereof by the staff of the
Commission, the Company is not permitted to effect a Registered Exchange Offer, as contemplated by Section 1 hereof, (ii) the Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated within 360 days of the date of original issue of the Initial
Securities (the “Issue Date”), (iii) any Initial Purchaser so requests with respect to the Initial Securities (or the Private Exchange Securities) not eligible to be exchanged for Exchange Securities in such Registered Exchange
Offer and held by it following consummation of the such Registered Exchange Offer or (iv) any Holder (other than an Exchanging Dealer) is not eligible to participate in the Registered Exchange Offer or, in the case of any Holder (other than an
Exchanging Dealer) that participates in such Registered Exchange Offer, such Holder does not receive freely tradeable Exchange Securities on the date of the exchange (other than due solely to the status of such Holder as an affiliate of ours within
the meaning of the Securities Act), and such Holder so requests the Company in writing on or prior to 20 business days following the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take the following actions:

  

 5 

 (a) The Company shall, at its cost, as promptly as practicable (but in
no event more than 90 days after so required or requested pursuant to this Section 2) file with the Commission and thereafter shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be declared effective (unless it becomes effective
automatically upon filing) one or more registration statements (collectively, the “Shelf Registration Statement” and, together with the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, a “Registration Statement”) on an
appropriate form under the Securities Act relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities by the Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and
Rule 415 under the Securities Act (hereinafter, the “Shelf Registration”); provided, however, that no Holder (other than an Initial Purchaser) shall be entitled to have the Securities held by it covered by such Shelf
Registration Statement unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder. 

(b) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously
effective, subject to Sections 3(b) and 3(j) hereof, in order to permit the prospectus included therein to be lawfully delivered by the Holders of the relevant Securities, for a period of two years (or for such longer period if extended
pursuant to Section 3(j) below) (or one year if such Shelf Registration Statement is filed at the request of a Holder or Holders) from the Issue Date or such shorter period that will terminate when all the Securities covered by the Shelf
Registration Statement (i) have been sold pursuant thereto or cease to be outstanding, (ii) are no longer restricted securities (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or any successor rule thereof) or cease to be Transfer
Restricted Securities. The Company shall be deemed not to have used its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the requisite period if it voluntarily takes any action that would result in Holders of
Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell such Securities during that period, unless (i) such action is required by applicable law or (ii) such action is taken by the Company in good faith and for valid business reasons
(not including avoidance of the Company’s obligations hereunder), including, but not limited to, the acquisition or divestiture of assets, so long as the Company promptly thereafter complies with the requirements of Section 3(j) hereof, if
applicable. 
  

 6 

 (c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the
contrary, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement, amendment
or supplement, (i) to comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission and (ii) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (other than with respect to information included therein in reliance upon or
in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Holder specifically for use therein). 

3. Registration Procedures. In connection with any Shelf Registration contemplated by Section 2 hereof and, to the
extent applicable, any Registered Exchange Offer contemplated by Section 1 hereof, the following provisions shall apply: 

(a) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) furnish to each Initial Purchaser, prior to
the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the applicable Registration Statement and each amendment thereof and each supplement, if any, to the prospectus included therein and, in the event that an Initial Purchaser (with respect to any
portion of an unsold allotment from the original offering) is participating in such Registered Exchange Offer or such Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to reflect in each such document, when so
filed with the Commission, such comments as such Initial Purchaser reasonably may propose; provided, however, that the Company need not furnish (A) any amendment or supplement to any Registration Statement that solely names a
Holder as a selling securityholder therein or (B) the first filing of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement; (ii) include information substantially similar to that set forth in Annex A hereto on the cover, in Annex B hereto in the
“Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange Offer” section and in Annex C hereto in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement; (iii) if requested by an Initial Purchaser, include the information required by Items 507 (only in connection with a Shelf Registration) or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in the prospectus
forming a part of the applicable Exchange Offer Registration Statement; (iv) include within the prospectus contained in the applicable Exchange Offer Registration Statement a section entitled “Plan of Distribution,” which shall
contain a summary statement of the positions taken or policies made by the staff of the Commission with respect to the potential “underwriter” status of any broker-dealer that is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under
the Exchange Act ) of Exchange Securities received by such broker-dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”), 

 

 7 

 
whether such positions or policies have been publicly disseminated by the staff of the Commission or such positions or policies, in the reasonable judgment of the Initial Purchasers based upon
advice of counsel (which may be in-house counsel), represent the prevailing views of the staff of the Commission; and (v) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, include in the prospectus included in the Shelf Registration Statement (or,
if permitted by Commission Rule 430B(b), in a prospectus supplement that becomes a part thereof pursuant to Commission Rule 430B(f)) that is delivered to any Holder pursuant to Section 3(d) and (f), the names of the Holders, who
propose to sell Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement, as selling securityholders. 

(b) The Company shall give written notice to the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Transfer Restricted
Securities (only in the case of a Shelf Registration) and any Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the Company has received prior written notice that it will be a Participating Broker-Dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer (which notice pursuant
to clauses (ii)-(v) hereof shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes have been made): 

(i) in the case of a Shelf Registration, when the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with
the Commission and when applicable Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; 

(ii) of any request by the Commission for post-effective amendments or supplements to the applicable Registration
Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; 
 (iii) of the issuance by the
Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, of the issuance by the Commission of a notification of objection to the use of the form on
which the applicable Registration Statement has been filed, and of the happening of any event that causes the Company to become an “ineligible issuer,” as defined in Commission Rule 405; 

(iv) of the receipt by the Company or its legal counsel of any notification with respect to the suspension of the
qualification of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and 
  

 8 

 (v) of the happening of any event that requires the Company to make
changes in the applicable Registration Statement or the prospectus in order that the applicable Registration Statement or the prospectus do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact nor omit to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. 

(c) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal at the earliest possible time,
of any order suspending the effectiveness of each Registration Statement. 
 (d) The Company shall furnish
to each Holder of Securities included within the coverage of each Shelf Registration, without charge, at least one copy of the applicable Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment or supplement thereto, including financial
statements and schedules; provided, however, that the Company need not furnish any amendment or supplement to any Shelf Registration Statement that solely names a Holder as a selling securityholder therein. The Company shall not,
without the prior consent of the Initial Purchasers (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute a “free writing prospectus,” as defined in Commission
Rule 405. 
 (e) The Company shall deliver to each Exchanging Dealer and each Initial Purchaser,
without charge, at least one copy of the applicable Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules. 

(f) The Company shall, during each Shelf Registration Period, deliver to each Holder of Securities included within
the coverage of the applicable Shelf Registration, without charge, as many copies of the prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) included in the applicable Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such
person may reasonably request. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of the Securities in connection with the offering
and sale of the Securities covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in the applicable Shelf Registration Statement, in each case, solely to satisfy such selling Holders’ prospectus delivery requirements.

  

 9 

 (g) The Company shall deliver to any Initial Purchaser, if necessary,
any Exchanging Dealer, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such other persons required to deliver a prospectus following the Registered Exchange Offer, without charge, as many copies of the final prospectus included in the applicable Exchange Offer
Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such persons may reasonably request for a period not to exceed 90 days after the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of
this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by any Initial Purchaser, if necessary, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such other persons required to deliver a prospectus following the Registered Exchange
Offer in connection with the offering and sale of the Exchange Securities covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in such Exchange Offer Registration Statement, in each case, solely to satisfy such persons’
(including any Initial Purchaser’s or Participating Broker-Dealer’s) prospectus delivery requirements. 

(h) Prior to any public offering of the Securities, pursuant to any Registration Statement, the Company shall
register or qualify or cooperate with the Holders of the Securities included therein and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of the Securities for offer and sale under the securities or “blue sky”
laws of such states of the United States as any Holder of the Securities reasonably requests in writing and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such jurisdictions of the Securities covered by
such Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, (ii) take any action which would subject it
to general service of process or to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or (iii) qualify as a dealer or broker in securities in any jurisdiction. 

(i) Unless such securities may be delivered in the form of beneficial interests in a global note held through DTC,
the Company shall reasonably cooperate with the Holders of Securities named in a Shelf Registration Statement to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Securities to be sold pursuant to such Registration
Statement free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as such Holders may request a reasonable period of time prior to sales of the Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. 

(j) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above
during the period for which the Company is required to maintain an effective Registration Statement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as practicable prepare and file a post-effective amendment to each
Registration Statement or a supplement to the 
  

 10 

 
related prospectus and any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to Holders of the Securities or purchasers of Securities, the prospectus will not contain an 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. If the Company notifies the Initial
Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer in accordance with paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes to the
prospectus have been made, then the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any such Participating Broker-Dealers shall suspend use of such prospectus, and the period of effectiveness of the applicable Shelf Registration Statement
provided for in Section 2(b) above and the applicable Exchange Offer Registration Statement provided for in Section 1 above shall each be extended by the number of days from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and
including the date when the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer shall have received such amended or supplemented prospectus pursuant to this Section 3(j). To the extent that Rule 415(a)(5)
is applicable, during the period during which the Company is required to maintain an effective Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will, to the extent so required, prior to the three-year expiration of that Shelf
Registration Statement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to file, and to cause to be declared effective (unless it becomes effective automatically upon filing) within a period that avoids any interruption in the ability of Holders of
Securities covered by the expiring Shelf Registration Statement to make registered dispositions, a new registration statement relating to the Securities, which shall be deemed the “Shelf Registration Statement” for purposes of this
Agreement. 
 Each Holder receiving a notice pursuant Section 3(b) hereof hereby agrees that it will either
(i) destroy any prospectuses, other than permanent file copies, then in such Holder’s possession, which have been replaced by the Company with more recently dated prospectuses or (ii) deliver to the Company all copies, other than
permanent file copies, then in such Holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Securities that was current at the time of receipt of such notice. 

(k) Not later than the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, the Company will provide a CUSIP
number for the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, and provide the trustee with one or more global notes representing the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be registered
in the name of Cede & Co. 
  

 11 

 (l) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause
the Indenture to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”), in a timely manner and use its commercially reasonable efforts to amend or supplement the Indenture as shall be necessary
for such qualification. In the event that such qualification would require the appointment of a new trustee under an Indenture, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to appoint a new trustee thereunder pursuant to the applicable
provisions of the Indenture. 
 (m) The Company may require each Holder of Securities to be sold pursuant to
any Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Company such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of the Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably require for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, and
the Company may exclude from such registration the Securities of any Holder that fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request; no such Holder of Securities shall be entitled to Additional Interest pursuant
to Section 6 hereof unless and until such Holder shall have provided all such information. 
 (n) The
Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to enter into such customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other action, if any, as any Holder of the Securities shall
reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Securities in an underwritten offering pursuant to any Shelf Registration; provided, however, that such Holders shall only be entitled to one underwritten offering in the aggregate.

 (o) In the case of any Shelf Registration, the Company shall (i) make reasonably available for
inspection by the Holders of the Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to the applicable Shelf Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Holders of the Securities or any such
underwriter all relevant financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and (ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, accountants and
auditors to supply all relevant information reasonably requested by the Holders of the Securities or any such underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with the applicable Shelf Registration Statement, in each case, as shall be
reasonably necessary to enable such persons, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act; provided, however, that the foregoing inspection and information gathering shall be
coordinated on behalf of the Initial Purchasers by you and on behalf of the other parties, by one counsel designated by and on behalf of such 

 

 12 

 
other parties as described in Section 4 hereof; all such records, documents and properties which the Company determines, in good faith, to be confidential and any such records, documents and
properties which the Company notifies such Holders, underwriters or their respective agents are confidential shall not be disclosed by such Holders, underwriters or their respective agents unless (i) the disclosure of such records, documents or
properties is necessary to avoid or correct a material misstatement or omission in such Registration Statement, (ii) the release of such records, documents or properties is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent
jurisdiction or (iii) the information in such records, documents and properties has been generally available to the public. Each selling Holder of such Securities and each such underwriter will be required to agree that information obtained by
it as a result of such inspections shall be deemed confidential and shall not be used by it as the basis for any market transactions in securities of the Company unless and until such information is made generally available to the public. Each
selling Holder of such Securities and each such underwriter will be required to further agree that it will, upon learning that disclosure of such records, documents and properties is sought in a court of competent jurisdiction, give notice to the
Company and allow the Company at its expense to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of such records, documents and properties deemed confidential. 

(p) If a Registered Exchange Offer or a Private Exchange is to be consummated, upon delivery of the Initial
Securities by Holders to the Company (or to such other Person as directed by the Company) in exchange for the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to
cause the Trustee to mark, or caused to be marked, on the Initial Securities so exchanged that such Initial Securities are being canceled in exchange for the Exchange Securities or the Private Exchange Securities, as the case may be; in no event
shall the Initial Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied. 
 (q) In the event that any
broker-dealer registered under the Exchange Act shall underwrite any Securities or participate as a member of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or “assist in the distribution” (within the meaning of the Conduct Rules (the
“Rules”) of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) thereof, whether as a Holder of such Securities or as an underwriter, a placement or sales agent or a broker or dealer in respect thereof, or
otherwise, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist such broker-dealer in complying with the requirements of such Rules, including, without limitation, by (i) if such Rules, including Rule 2720, shall so require,
engaging a “qualified independent underwriter” (as defined in Rule 2720) to participate in the preparation of the Registration Statement relating to such Securities, to exercise

  

 13 

 
usual standards of due diligence in respect thereto and, if any portion of the offering contemplated by such Registration Statement is an underwritten offering or is made through a placement or
sales agent, to recommend the yield of such Securities, (ii) indemnifying any such qualified independent underwriter to the extent of the indemnification of underwriters provided in Section 5 hereof and (iii) providing such
information to such broker-dealer as may be required in order for such broker-dealer to comply with the requirements of the Rules. 

(r) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the
registration of the Securities covered by a Registration Statement contemplated hereby. 
 4. Registration Expenses.
The Company shall bear all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations under Sections 1 through 3 hereof, whether or not the Registered Exchange Offer or a Shelf Registration is filed or becomes effective,
and, in the event of a Shelf Registration, shall bear or reimburse the Holders of the Securities covered thereby for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm of counsel designated by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Initial Securities covered thereby to act as counsel for the Holders of the Initial Securities in connection therewith, in each case excluding underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes or fees of Counsel to any underwriters.

 5. Indemnification. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of the Securities, any
Participating Broker-Dealer and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or such Participating Broker-Dealer within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each Holder, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such controlling persons
are referred to collectively as the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Securities in connection with a Registration Statement) to which each Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or related prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in
any preliminary prospectus or “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Commission Rule 433 (“Issuer FWP”), relating to a Shelf Registration, or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission or alleged omission
to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and shall reimburse, as incurred, the Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof; provided, however, that (i) the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such

  

 14 

 
loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in a Registration Statement or prospectus or
in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or Issuer FWP relating to a Shelf Registration in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer and furnished
to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer specifically for inclusion therein and (ii) with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus
relating to a Shelf Registration Statement, the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection (a) shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities purchased the Securities concerned, to the extent that a prospectus relating to such Securities was required to be delivered (including through satisfaction of the conditions of Commission Rule 172) by such Holder or Participating
Broker-Dealer under the Securities Act in connection with such purchase and any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer results from the fact that there was not conveyed to such person, at or prior to the
time of the sale of such Securities to such person, an amended or supplemented prospectus or, if permitted by Section 3(d), an Issuer FWP correcting such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission if the Company had
previously furnished copies thereof to such Holder or Participating Broker-Dealer; provided further, however, that this indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to such Indemnified
Party. The Company shall also indemnify underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act to the same extent as provided above with respect to the
indemnification of the Holders of the Securities if requested by such Holders. 
 (b) Each Holder of the Securities,
severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities or any
actions in respect thereof, to which the Company or any such controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based
upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or Issuer FWP relating to a Shelf Registration,
or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue
statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for

  

 15 

 
inclusion therein; and, subject to the limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, shall reimburse, as incurred, the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the
Company or any such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Holder may otherwise have
to the Company or any of its controlling persons. 
 (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 5 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including a governmental investigation), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 5,
notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have under subsection (a) or (b) above except to the extent
that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have
to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be
entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except
with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof the indemnifying party will not be liable to
such indemnified party under this Section 5 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof. No indemnifying party shall,
without the prior written consent of the indemnified party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party
and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action, and
(ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. No indemnified party will, without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party, effect any
settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity may be sought hereunder; provided, however, that an indemnified party may enter into a settlement of any
proceeding or action without consent of the indemnifying party and the indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after
receipt by the indemnifying party of a request to pay or reimburse fees and expenses related to any 
  

 16 

 
proceeding contemplated by this Section 5, (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such
settlement and (iii) such indemnified party shall have given the indemnifying party at least 45 days’ prior notice of its intention to settle. 

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party
under subsections (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to
in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other from the exchange of the
Securities, pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages
or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or such Holder or such other indemnified party, as the case may be, on the other, and the parties’
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence
of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d).
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5(d), the Holders of the Securities shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holders from the sale of the Securities
pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds the amount of damages which such Holders have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 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. For purposes of this paragraph (d), each person, if
any, who controls such indemnified party within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such indemnified party and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the
Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. 
  

 17 

 (e) The agreements contained in this Section 5 shall survive the sale of the
Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 

6. Additional Interest Under Certain Circumstances. (a) Additional interest (the “Additional Interest”)
with respect to the Initial Securities shall be assessed as follows if any of the following events occur (each such event in clauses (i) through (ii) below a “Registration Default”): 

(i) If on or prior to the 360th day after the Issue Date, the Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated or

 (ii) If after the Shelf Registration Statement is declared (or becomes automatically) effective such
Registration Statement thereafter ceases to be effective during a period during which it is required to be. 
 Additional Interest shall accrue
on the principal amount of the Initial Securities, at a rate of 0.25% per annum for the first 90-day period, and such rate will increase by an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day period that such Additional
Interest continues to accrue (provided, that the rate at which such Additional Interest accrues may in no event exceed 1.0% per annum) commencing on the 361st day after the Issue Date, in the case of (i) above, or the day such
Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be effective during a period during which it is required to be, in the case of (ii) above; provided, that upon the exchange of Exchange Securities for all Securities tendered (in the case of
clause (i) above), or upon the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement that had ceased to remain effective (in the case of clause (ii) above), Additional Interest on such Initial Securities as a result of such clause shall cease to
accrue. 
 The Company shall in no event be required to pay Additional Interest for more than one Registration Default at any
given time. 
 (b) A Registration Default referred to in Section 6(a)(iii)(B) hereof shall be deemed not to have
occurred and be continuing in relation to a Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus if (i) such Registration Default has occurred solely as a result of (w) the filing of a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration
Statement to incorporate annual audited financial information with respect to the Company where such post-effective amendment is not yet effective and needs to be declared effective to permit Holders to use the related prospectus, (x) other
material events, with respect to the Company that would need to be described in such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus, (y) the suspension of the effectiveness 

 

 18 

 
of such Registration Statement because of the existence of material events or developments with respect to the Company or any of its affiliates, the disclosure of which the Company determines in
good faith would have a material adverse effect on its business, operations or prospects, or (z) the suspension of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement because the Company does not wish to disclose publicly a pending material
business transaction that has not yet been publicly disclosed, and (ii) in the case of clause (x), the Company is proceeding promptly and in good faith to amend or supplement such Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus to
describe such events; provided, however, that in any case if (A) in the case of a Registration Default described in clause (i)(w), such Registration Default occurs for a continuous period in excess of 30 days and (B) in
the case of a Registration Default described in (i)(x), (i)(y) or (i)(z), such Registration Default occurs for a period of more than 45 days in any three-month period or more than an aggregate of 90 days in any twelve-month period, then Additional
Interest shall be payable in accordance with the above paragraph from the day such Registration Default occurs until such Registration Default is cured. 

(c) Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of Section 6(a) above will be payable in
cash on the regular interest payment dates with respect to the Initial Securities. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the applicable Additional Interest rate by the principal amount of the Initial Securities,
multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest rate was applicable during such period (determined on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months), and the denominator of which is
360. 
 (d) “Transfer Restricted Securities” means each Security until (i) the date on which such
Transfer Restricted Security has been exchanged by a person other than a broker-dealer for a freely transferable Exchange Security in the Registered Exchange Offer, (ii) following the exchange by a broker-dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer
of an Initial Security for an Exchange Note, the date on which such Exchange Note is sold to a purchaser who receives from such broker-dealer on or prior to the date of such sale a copy of the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement, (iii) the date on which such Initial Security has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement or (iv) the date on which such Initial Security is
distributed to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or is saleable by a person that is not an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) of the Company pursuant to Rule 144. 

7. Rules 144 and 144A. As long as any Transfer Restricted Securities remain outstanding and the Company is subject to
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner. The Company covenants that it
will take such further action as any Holder of Initial Securities 
  

 19 

 
may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Initial Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the
exemptions provided by Rules 144 and 144A (including the requirements of Rule 144A(d)(4)). The Company will provide a copy of this Agreement to prospective purchasers of Initial Securities identified to the Company by the Initial
Purchasers upon reasonable request. Upon the reasonable request of any Holder of Initial Securities, as long as any Transfer Restricted Securities remain outstanding and the Company is subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the
Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities
pursuant to the Exchange Act or voluntarily file reports thereunder. 
 8. Underwritten Registrations. If any
of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering (“Managing
Underwriters”) will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer Restricted Securities to be included in such offering; provided, however, that such Managing Underwriter shall be
reasonably acceptable to the Company; provided, further, that the Holders shall not be entitled to more than one underwritten offering in the aggregate. 

No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s
Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney,
indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 

9. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers
or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, except by the Company and the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities affected by such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or
consents. 
  

 20 

 (b) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted

approval of Holders of a specified percentage of principal amount of Securities is required hereunder, Securities held by the Company or its affiliates (other than subsequent Holders of Securities if such subsequent Holders are deemed to be
affiliates solely by reason of their holdings of such Securities) shall not be counted in determining whether such consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required percentage.

 Schedule A 

Citigroup Global Markets Inc. 

 ANNEX A 

Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will
deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. By so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the
Securities Act. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for Initial Securities where such Initial Securities were
acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 90 days after the Expiration Date (as defined herein), it will make this Prospectus available to
any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. See “Plan of Distribution.” 

 ANNEX B 

Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Securities, where such Initial Securities were
acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. See “Plan of Distribution.”

 ANNEX C 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION 

Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must
acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange
Securities received in exchange for Initial Securities where such Initial Securities were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 90 days after the Expiration
Date, it will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until
                , 201  , all dealers effecting transactions in the Exchange Securities may be required to deliver a
prospectus.(
1)
 
 The Company will not receive any proceeds from any sale of
Exchange Securities by broker-dealers. Exchange Securities received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated
transactions, through the writing of options on the Exchange Securities or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such
resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such Exchange Securities. Any broker-dealer
that resells Exchange Securities that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such Exchange Securities may be deemed to be an “underwriter”
within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit on any such resale of Exchange Securities and any commission or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. By acknowledging
that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. 

For a period of 90 days after the Expiration Date the Company will promptly send additional copies of this Prospectus and any
amendment or supplement to this Prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents. The Company has agreed to pay all expenses incident to the Exchange Offer (including the expenses of one counsel for the Holders of the Securities) other
than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and will indemnify the Holders of the Securities (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. 

 
  

	(1)
	 In addition, the legend required by Item 502(e) of Regulation S-K will appear on the back cover page of the Exchange Offer prospectus.

 If the undersigned is not a broker-dealer, the undersigned
represents that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, a distribution of Exchange Securities. If the undersigned is a broker-dealer that will receive Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Initial Securities that
were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, it acknowledges that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities; however, by so acknowledging and by delivering a
prospectus, the undersigned will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act.

SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT

This SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is dated as of September 30, 2010 by and among Timberjack Sporting Supplies, Inc., a Nevada corporation, (the “Company” or “TBJK”) and each of the Purchasers whose names are set forth on Exhibit A hereto (individually, a “Purchaser” and collectively, the “Purchasers”).

The parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

Purchase and Sale of Preferred Stock and Warrants

Section 1.1                      Purchase and Sale of Stock. Upon the following terms and conditions, the Company shall issue and sell to the Purchasers and each of the Purchasers shall purchase from the Company, Units (the “Units”), each consisting of one share of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Shares”), convertible into one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and a Warrant (as defined below) to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Preferred Shares purchased by each Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, as set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on Exhibit A hereto, as applicable. The designation, rights, preferences and other terms and provisions of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are set forth in the Series A Certificate of Designation of the Relative Rights and Preferences of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock attached hereto as Exhibit F (the “Series A Certificate of Designation”).  The Company and the Purchasers are executing and delivering this Agreement in accordance with and in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Rule 506 of Regulation D (“Regulation D”) as promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

Section 1.2                      Warrants. Upon the following terms and conditions and for no additional consideration, each of the Purchasers shall be issued Series A Warrants, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Warrants”), to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock equal to fifty percent (50%) of the number of Preferred Shares purchased by each Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, as set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on Exhibit A hereto. The Warrants shall expire five (5) years following the Closing Date, and have an initial exercise price of $4.80, which is 120% of the Purchase Price.

Section 1.3                      Conversion and Warrant Shares. Upon the effectiveness of the Reverse Split (as defined in Section 3.30 below), the Company shall authorize and reserve and covenants to continue to reserve, free of preemptive rights and other similar contractual rights of stockholders, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect conversion of all of the Preferred Shares and exercise of the Warrants then outstanding. Any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares and exercise of the Warrants (and such shares when issued) are herein referred to as the “Conversion Shares” and the “Warrant Shares”, respectively. The Preferred Shares, the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares are sometimes collectively referred to as the “Shares”.

The closing of the purchase and sale of the Units to be acquired by the Purchasers from the Company under this Agreement shall take place at the offices of Anslow & Jaclin, LLP, 195 Route 9 South, Suite 204, Manalapan, NJ 07726 (the “Closing”). Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the date and time of the Closing shall be the Closing Date (or such later date as is mutually agreed to by the Company and Newbridge Securities Corporation (the “Placement Agent”)), provided, that all of the conditions set forth in Article IV hereof and applicable to the Closing shall have been fulfilled or waived in accordance herewith (the “Closing Date”). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to each Purchaser (x) a certificate for the number of Preferred Shares set forth opposite the name of such Purchaser on Exhibit A hereto, (y) its Warrants to purchase such number of shares of Common Stock as is set forth opposite the name of such Purchaser on Exhibit A attached hereto and (z) any other documents required to be delivered pursuant to Article IV hereof. At the Closing, each Purchaser shall deliver its Purchase Price by wire transfer to the escrow account pursuant to the Escrow General Agreement (as hereafter defined).

Section 1.5                      Share Exchange Transactions. The parties acknowledge that immediately prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Company will issue shares of its Series M preferred stock (the “Series M Preferred Stock”) to Chine Victory Profit Limited, incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (“Chine Victory”), pursuant to that certain Share Exchange Agreement dated as of September 29, 2010 by and among the Company and the controlling stockholders of the Company, Chine Victory and shareholders of Chine Victory (the “Share Exchange Agreement”). Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement, Chine Victory, together with its subsidiaries, will become the wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company (the “Share Exchange Transaction”).  The Series M Preferred Stock shall convert into 8,639,651 shares of Common Stock of the Company automatically upon the effectiveness of the Reverse Split.

ARTICLE II

Representations and Warranties

Section 2.1                      Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Purchasers and the Placement Agent on behalf of itself and its subsidiaries, as of the date hereof and the Closing Date (except as set forth on the Schedule of Exceptions attached hereto with each numbered Schedule corresponding to the section number herein), as follows:

(a) Organization, Good Standing and Power. The Company and each of its subsidiaries is a corporation or other entity duly incorporated or otherwise organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization (as applicable) and has the requisite corporate power to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to conduct its business as it is now being conducted.  Except as disclosed on Schedule 2.1(g), prior to the Share Exchange Transaction, the Company does not have any subsidiaries. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(g), the Company and each such subsidiary is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary except for any jurisdiction(s) (alone or in the aggregate) in which the failure to be so qualified will not have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in Section 2.1(c) hereof) on the Company’s financial condition.

(b) Authorization; Enforcement. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), the Lock-Up Agreement (as defined in Section 3.18 hereof) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D, the Escrow Agreement by and among the Company, the Purchasers and the escrow agent named therein, dated as of the date hereof, substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 attached hereto (the “Escrow General Agreement”), the Securities Escrow Agreement by and among the Company, the Purchasers, the Principal Stockholder (as hereinafter defined) and the escrow agent named therein, dated as of the date hereof, substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 attached hereto (the “Securities Escrow Agreement”), the Investor and Public Relations Escrow Agreement by and among the Company, the Purchasers and the escrow agent named therein, dated as of the date hereof, substantially in the form of Exhibit E-3 attached hereto (the “Investor and Public Relations Escrow Agreement”) and the Dividend Escrow Agreement by and among the Company, the Purchasers and the escrow agent named therein, dated as of the date hereof, substantially in the form of Exhibit E-4 attached hereto (the “Dividend Escrow Agreement”, together with the Escrow General Agreement, the Securities Escrow Agreement and the Investor and Public Relations Escrow Agreement, the “Escrow Agreements”), the Series A Certificate of Designation, and the Warrants (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”) and to issue and sell the Units, the Shares and the Warrants in accordance with the terms hereof. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and no further consent or authorization of the Company or its Board of Directors or stockholders is required. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company. The other Transaction Documents will have been duly executed and delivered by the Company at the Closing. Each of the Transaction Documents constitutes, or shall constitute when executed and delivered, a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship, receivership or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditor’s rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application.

(c) Capitalization. The authorized capital stock of the Company and the shares thereof currently issued and outstanding as of the date hereof and as contemplated by the Transaction Documents both at the time of Closing and after the Reverse Split is effective are set forth on Schedule 2.1(c) hereto.

Except as contemplated by the Transaction Documents or as set forth on Schedule 2.1(c) hereto, no shares of Common Stock are entitled to preemptive rights or registration rights and there are no outstanding options, warrants, scrip, rights to subscribe to, call or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities or rights convertible into, any shares of capital stock of the Company.

Except as contemplated by the Transaction Documents or as set forth on Schedule 2.1(c) hereto, the Company is not a party to any agreement granting registration or anti-dilution rights to any person with respect to any of its equity or debt securities.  Except as contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company is not a party to, and it has no knowledge of, any agreement restricting the voting or transfer of any shares of the capital stock of the Company. The offer and sale of all capital stock, convertible securities, rights, warrants, or options of the Company issued prior to the Closing complied with all applicable Federal and state securities laws, and no stockholder has a right of rescission or claim for damages with respect thereto which would have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined below).

(e) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated herein and therein do not and will not (i) violate any provision of the Company’s Certificate or Bylaws, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement, instrument or obligation to which the Company is a party or by which it or its properties or assets are bound, (iii) create or impose a lien, mortgage, security interest, pledge, charge or encumbrance (collectively, “Lien”) of any nature on any property of the Company under any agreement or any commitment to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or by which any of its respective properties or assets are bound, or (iv) result in a violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including Federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its subsidiaries are bound or affected, provided, however, that, excluded from the foregoing in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above are such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, accelerations, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

The Company has delivered or made available to each of the Purchasers true and complete copies of the Commission Documents, at the request of any such Purchaser. Except for the disclosure to be included in the Form 8-K (as defined below), the Company has not provided to the Purchasers any material non-public information or other information which, according to applicable law, rule or regulation, was required to have been disclosed publicly by the Company but which has not been so disclosed, other than with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may not include footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements), and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments). The Chine Victory Financial Statements (as defined in Section 4.2(u) hereof) comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing. The Chine Victory Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved and fairly present in all material respects, the financial conditions and results of Chine Victory and its subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended.

Schedule 2.1(g) hereto sets forth each subsidiary of the Company, showing the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization and showing the percentage of ownership of each subsidiary. For the purposes of this Agreement, “subsidiary” shall mean any corporation or other entity of which at least a majority of the securities or other ownership interests having ordinary voting power (absolutely or contingently) for the election of directors or other persons performing similar functions are at the time owned directly or indirectly by the Company and/or any of its other subsidiaries. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock of each subsidiary have been duly authorized and validly issued, and are fully paid and nonassessable. Other than as contemplated by the Transaction Documents, there are no outstanding preemptive, conversion or other rights, options, warrants or agreements granted or issued by or binding upon any subsidiary for the purchase or acquisition of any shares of capital stock of any subsidiary or any other securities convertible into, exchangeable for or evidencing the rights to subscribe for any shares of such capital stock. Other than as contemplated by the Transaction Documents, neither the Company nor any subsidiary is subject to any obligation (contingent or otherwise) to repurchase or otherwise acquire or retire any shares of the capital stock of any subsidiary or any convertible securities, rights, warrants or options of the type described in the preceding sentence. Neither the Company nor any subsidiary is a party to, nor has any knowledge of, any agreement restricting the voting or transfer of any shares of the capital stock of any subsidiary.  The Company and its subsidiaries, as applicable, each have the unrestricted right to vote, and (subject to limitations or restrictions imposed by applicable law) to receive dividends and distributions on, all capital securities of its subsidiaries as owned by the Company or any such subsidiary, as the case may be.

Other than as disclosed on Schedule 2.1(i) and in the Form 8-K, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has any liabilities, obligations, claims or losses (whether liquidated or unliquidated, secured or unsecured, absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise) other than those incurred in the ordinary course of the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ respective businesses since June 30, 2010 and which, individually or in the aggregate, do not or would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or its subsidiaries.

(j) No Undisclosed Events or Circumstances. To the Company’s knowledge, no event or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or its subsidiaries or their respective businesses, properties, operations or financial condition, which, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or announcement by the Company but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed.

(k) Indebtedness. Other than as disclosed on Schedule 2.1(k), the Chine Victory Financial Statements set forth all outstanding secured and unsecured Indebtedness of the subsidiaries of the Company on a consolidated basis, or for which the subsidiaries of the Company have commitments as of the date of such Chine Victory Financial Statements or any subsequent period that would require disclosure. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Indebtedness” shall mean (a) any liabilities for borrowed money or amounts owed in excess of $100,000 (other than trade accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business), (b) all guaranties, endorsements and other contingent obligations in respect of Indebtedness of others, whether or not the same should be reflected in the Company’s balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course of business; and (c) the present value of any lease payments in excess of $100,000 due under leases required to be capitalized in accordance with GAAP. Except as set forth in Schedule 2.1(k), neither the Company nor any subsidiary is in default with respect to any Indebtedness.

All leases of the Company and each of its subsidiaries are valid and subsisting and in full force and effect.

(m) Actions Pending. There is no action, suit, claim, investigation, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution proceeding or any other proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company or any subsidiary which questions the validity of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or to be taken pursuant hereto or thereto. There is no action, suit, claim, investigation, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution proceeding or any other proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened, against or involving the Company, any subsidiary or any of their respective properties or assets. There are no outstanding orders, judgments, injunctions, awards or decrees of any court, arbitrator or governmental or regulatory body against the Company or any subsidiary or any executive officers or directors of the Company or subsidiary in their capacities as such.

The Company and each of its subsidiaries have all franchises, permits, licenses, consents and other governmental or regulatory authorizations and approvals necessary for the conduct of its business in all material respects as now being conducted by it unless the failure to possess such franchises, permits, licenses, consents and other governmental or regulatory authorizations and approvals, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

ARTICLE V

Stock Certificate Legend

Section 5.1                      Legend. Each certificate representing the Preferred Shares, the Warrants and Warrant Shares and if appropriate, securities issued upon conversion or exercise thereof, shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form (in addition to any legend required by applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws):

 

  

37

  

 

THESE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE (THE “SECURITIES”) HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE COMPANY SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED.

The Company agrees to reissue certificates representing any of the Conversion Shares or the Warrant Shares, without the legend set forth above if at such time, prior to making any transfer of any such securities, such holder thereof shall give written notice to the Company describing the manner and terms of such transfer and removal as the Company may reasonably request. Such proposed transfer and removal will not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that the registration of the Conversion Shares or the Warrant Shares under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Company with the Commission and has become effective under the Securities Act, (iii) the Company has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state securities laws are not required, or (iv) the holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; and (b) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that registration or qualification under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state is not required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii) compliance with applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws has been effected or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto. The Company will respond to any such notice from a holder within five (5) business days. In the case of any proposed transfer under this Section 5.1, the Company will use reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is not then qualified, (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it is not then subject, or (z) to comply with state securities or “blue sky” laws of any state for which registration by coordination is unavailable to the Company. The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 5.1 shall be in addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other section of this Agreement. Whenever a certificate representing the Conversion Shares or the Warrant Shares is required to be issued to a Purchaser without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Conversion Shares or the Warrant Shares (provided that a registration statement under the Securities Act providing for the resale of the Warrant Shares and Conversion Shares is then in effect), the Company may cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares to a Purchaser by crediting the account of such Purchaser or such Purchaser’s prime broker with the DTC through its DWAC system (to the extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this Agreement).

ARTICLE VI

Indemnification

Section 6.1                      General Indemnity. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchasers (and their respective directors, officers, managers, partners, members, shareholders, affiliates, agents, successors, assigns) and the Placement Agent from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Purchasers as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by the Company herein. Further, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchasers (and their respective directors, officers, managers, partners, members, shareholders, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Purchasers as a result of the failure of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to pay contributions for all employees or any other liability that arises from the failure to comply with any PRC rule or regulation. Each Purchaser severally but not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors, officers, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Company as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by such Purchaser herein. The maximum aggregate liability of each Purchaser pursuant to its indemnification obligations under this Article VI shall not exceed the portion of the Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser hereunder. In no event shall any “Indemnified Party” (as defined below) be entitled to recover consequential or punitive damages resulting from a breach or violation of this Agreement.

Section 6.2                      Indemnification Procedure. Any party entitled to indemnification under this Article VI (an “Indemnified Party”) will give written notice to the indemnifying party of any matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided, that the failure of any party entitled to indemnification hereunder to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Article VI except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any action, proceeding or claim is brought against an Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnification is sought hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, unless in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party a conflict of interest between it and the indemnifying party may exist with respect of such action, proceeding or claim, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. In the event that the indemnifying party advises an Indemnified Party that it will contest such a claim for indemnification hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30) days of receipt of any indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such person of its election to defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any action, proceeding or claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after it commences such defense), then the Indemnified Party may, at its option, defend, settle or otherwise compromise or pay such 

 

  

39

  

 

action or claim. In any event, unless and until the indemnifying party elects in writing to assume and does so assume the defense of any such claim, proceeding or action, the Indemnified Party’s costs and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding shall be losses subject to indemnification hereunder. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. If the indemnifying party elects to defend any such action or claim, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in such defense with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement if the indemnifying party is advised of the settlement but fails to respond to the settlement within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notification. Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI to the contrary, the indemnifying party shall not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof which imposes any future obligation on the Indemnified Party or which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim. The indemnification required by this Article VI shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred, so long as the Indemnified Party irrevocably agrees to refund such moneys if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such party was not entitled to indemnification. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or similar rights of the Indemnified Party against the indemnifying party or others, and (b) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

ARTICLE VII

Miscellaneous

Section 7.1                      Fees and Expenses.

Section 7.2                      Specific Enforcement, Consent to Jurisdiction.

 

  

40

  

 

(a) The Company and the Purchasers acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof or thereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which any of them may be entitled by law or equity.

(b)           Each of the Company and the Purchasers (i) hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court sitting in the Southern District of New York and the courts of the State of New York located in New York county for the purposes of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby and (ii) hereby waives, and agrees not to assert in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such court, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each of the Company and the Purchasers consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing in this Section 7.2 shall affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.  Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.  The Company hereby appoints Anslow & Jaclin, LLP, with its office at 195 Route 9 South, Suite 204, Manalapan, New Jersey 07726, as its agent for service of process in New York.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.

Section 7.3                      Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents contains the entire understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to the matters covered hereby and, except as specifically set forth herein or in the Transaction Documents, neither the Company nor any of the Purchasers makes any representations, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters and they supersede all prior understandings and agreements with respect to said subject matter, all of which are merged herein. No provision of this Agreement nor any of the Transaction Documents may be waived or amended other than by a written instrument signed by the Company and the Placement Agent, and no provision hereof may be waived other than by a written instrument signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less than all of the holders of the Preferred Shares then outstanding. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents or holders of Preferred Shares, as the case may be.

Section 7.5                      Waivers. No waiver by any party of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any other provisions, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right accruing to it thereafter.

Section 7.6                      Headings. The article, section and subsection headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

Section 7.7                      Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement may not be assigned by a party hereto without the prior written consent of the Company or the Placement Agent, as applicable, provided, however, that, subject to federal and state securities laws and as otherwise provided in the Transaction Documents, a Purchaser may assign its rights and delegate its duties hereunder in whole or in part to an affiliate or to a third party acquiring all or substantially all of its Shares or Warrants in a private transaction without the prior written consent of the Company or the other Purchasers, provided, that no such assignment or obligation shall affect the obligations of such Purchaser hereunder and that such assignee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred securities, by the provisions hereof that apply to the Purchasers.  The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective permitted successors and assigns of the parties.  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. If any Purchaser transfers Preferred Shares purchased hereunder, any such penalty shares or liquidated damages, as the case may be, pursuant to this Agreement shall similarly transfer to such transferee with no further action required by the purchaser or the Company.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, only those Purchasers who own shares of Preferred Shares or Conversion Shares of the Company shall be entitled to receive any rights and benefits of this Agreement based on their ownership interest at the time when such rights or benefits accrue. If any Purchaser transfers Preferred Shares purchased hereunder, any and all rights and benefits pursuant to this Agreement shall similarly transfer to such transferee with no further action required by the Purchaser, the transferee or the Company.  In the event that any Purchaser (or permitted assign) no longer holds shares of Series A Preferred or Conversion Shares such Purchaser will similarly not be entitled to any of the rights or benefits conferred upon such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 7.8                      No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person.

 

  

43

  

 

Section 7.9                      Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any of the conflicts of law principles which would result in the application of the substantive law of another jurisdiction. This Agreement shall not be interpreted or construed with any presumption against the party causing this Agreement to be drafted.

Section 7.10                      Survival. The representations and warranties of the Company and the Purchasers shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the Closing hereunder for a period of one (1) year following the Closing Date.

Section 7.11                      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 parties hereto, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature were the original thereof.

Section 7.12                      Publicity. The Company agrees that it will not disclose, and will not include in any public announcement, except as provided in the Transaction Documents, the name of the Purchasers without the consent of the Purchasers unless and until such disclosure is required by law or applicable regulation, and then only to the extent of such requirement.

Section 7.13                      Severability. The provisions of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents are severable and, in the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any one or more of the provisions or part of the provisions contained in this Agreement or the Transaction Documents shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or part of a provision of this Agreement or the Transaction Documents and such provision shall be reformed and construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision, or part of such provision, had never been contained herein, so that such provisions would be valid, legal and enforceable to the maximum extent possible.

Section 7.14                      Further Assurances. From and after the date of this Agreement, upon the request of any Purchaser or the Company, each of the Company and the Purchasers shall execute and deliver such instrument, documents and other writings as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to confirm and carry out and to effectuate fully the intent and purposes of this Agreement, the Preferred Shares, the Conversion Shares, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares, the Series A Certificate of Designation, the Registration Rights Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Section 7.15                      Currency.  Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts referred to in this Agreement are in United States Dollars.  All amounts owing under this Agreement or any Transaction Document shall be paid in US dollars.  All amounts denominated in other currencies shall be converted in the US dollar equivalent amount in accordance with the Exchange Rate on the date of calculation.  “Exchange Rate” means, in relation to any amount of currency to be converted into US dollars pursuant to this Agreement, the US dollar exchange rate as published in The Wall Street Journal on the relevant date of calculation.

 

  

44

  

 

Section 7.16                      Judgment Currency.

(a)           If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the Company in any court in any jurisdiction it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this Section 7.17 referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in US Dollars under this Agreement, the conversion shall be made at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the business day immediately preceding:

(i)           the date of actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of New York or in the courts of any other jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date: or

(ii)           the date on which the foreign court determines, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

(b)           If in the case of any proceeding, there is a change in the Exchange Rate prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the applicable party shall pay such adjusted amount as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of US Dollars which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date.

(c)           Any amount due from the Company under this provision shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of this Agreement.

Section 7.17                      Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated prior to Closing:

(b)           by the Company or a Purchaser (as to itself but no other Purchaser) upon written notice to the other, with a copy to the Escrow Agent, if the Closing shall not have taken place by 6:30 p.m. Eastern time on August 31, 2010; provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 7.17(b) shall not be available to any Person whose failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement has been the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such time.

 

  

45

  

 

(c)           In the event of a termination pursuant to Section 7.17(c) or 7.17(b), each Purchaser shall have the right to a return of up to its entire Purchase Price deposited with the Escrow Agent pursuant to this Agreement, without interest or deduction.  The Company covenants and agrees to cooperate with such Purchaser in obtaining the return of its Purchase Price, and shall not communicate any instructions to the contrary to the Escrow Agent.

(d)           In the event of a termination pursuant to this Section, the Company shall promptly notify all non-terminating Purchasers. Upon a termination in accordance with this Section 7.17, the Company and the terminating Purchaser(s) shall not have any further obligation or liability (including as arising from such termination) to the other and no Purchaser will have any liability to any other Purchaser under the Transaction Documents as a result therefrom.
