Related to Certificate of Entity Registration

• Company Registration If the Company proposes to register (including, for this purpose, a registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than the Holders) any of its securities under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than in an Excluded Registration), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder notice of such registration. Upon the request of each Holder given within twenty (20) days after such notice is given by the Company, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Subsection 2.3, cause to be registered all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be included in such registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Subsection 2.2 before the effective date of such registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. The expenses (other than Selling Expenses) of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Subsection 2.6.

• Maintaining a Registration Statement The Company shall maintain the effectiveness of any Registration Statement that has been declared effective at all times during the Commitment Period, provided, however, that if the Company has received notification pursuant to Section 2.04 that the Investor has completed resales pursuant to the Registration Statement for the full Commitment Amount, then the Company shall be under no further obligation to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall ensure that, when filed, each Registration Statement (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) and the prospectus (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) used in connection with such Registration Statement shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading. During the Commitment Period, the Company shall notify the Investor promptly if (i) the Registration Statement shall cease to be effective under the Securities Act, (ii) the Common Shares shall cease to be authorized for listing on the Principal Market, (iii) the Common Shares cease to be registered under Section 12(b) or Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act or (iv) the Company fails to file in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of it as a reporting company under the Exchange Act.

• Certificate Registration Except in the event the Exercise Price is paid by means of a Cashless Exercise, the certificate for the shares as to which the Option is exercised shall be registered in the name of the Optionee, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Optionee.

• Expenses of Company Registration The Company shall bear and pay all expenses incurred in connection with any registration, filing or qualification of Registrable Securities with respect to the registrations pursuant to Section 3 for each Holder, including without limitation all registration, filing and qualification fees, printers' and accounting fees relating or apportionable thereto and the fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holders (selected by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being registered), but excluding underwriting discounts and commissions relating to Registrable Securities.

• Securities Registration In the event the shares of ----------------------- Stock issuable upon exercise of this Option have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, at the time this Option is exercised, the Optionee shall, if so requested by the Company, concurrently with the exercise of this Option (either in whole or in part) and as a condition to the Company's obligation to issue and deliver a stock certificate for such shares, deliver to the Company a written statement to the effect that the Optionee is acquiring the Stock for his or her own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to resale or distribution thereof.

• SEC Registration The Parties mutually agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain effective registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the long-term incentive awards to the extent any such registration statement is required by applicable Law.

• New Registration Statement Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Section 2.1, in the event the Commission informs the Company that all of the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Company agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the holders thereof and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Shelf Registration as required by the Commission and/or (ii) withdraw the Shelf Registration and file a new registration statement (a “New Registration Statement”), on Form S-3, or if Form S-3 is not then available to the Company for such registration statement, on such other form available to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering; provided, however, that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with any publicly-available written or oral guidance, comments, requirements or requests of the Commission staff (the “SEC Guidance”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Company used commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing by a Holder as to its Registrable Securities to register a lesser amount of Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders. In the event the Company amends the Shelf Registration or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission or SEC Guidance provided to the Company or to registrants of securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form S-3 or such other form available to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the Shelf Registration, as amended, or the New Registration Statement.

• COOPERATION IN PREPARATION OF REGISTRATION STATEMENT The COMPANY and STOCKHOLDERS shall furnish or cause to be furnished to VPI and the Underwriters all of the information concerning the COMPANY and the STOCKHOLDERS required for inclusion in, and will cooperate with VPI and the Underwriters in the preparation of, the Registration Statement and the prospectus included therein (including audited and unaudited financial statements, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, in form suitable for inclusion in the Registration Statement). The COMPANY and the STOCKHOLDERS agree promptly to advise VPI if, at any time during the period in which a prospectus relating to the offering is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, any information contained in the prospectus concerning the COMPANY or the STOCKHOLDERS becomes incorrect or incomplete in any material respect, and to provide the information needed to correct such inaccuracy. VPI will give the COMPANY and the STOCKHOLDERS an opportunity and a reasonable amount of time to review and comment on a substantially final draft of the Registration Statement prior to filing, and with respect to all amendments thereto, VPI will give the COMPANY and STOCKHOLDERS an opportunity to review and comment on those portions of such amendments that relate to the COMPANY. Insofar as the information contained in the Registration Statement relates solely to the COMPANY or the STOCKHOLDERS, as of the effective date of the Registration Statement the COMPANY represents and warrants as to such information with respect to itself, and each STOCKHOLDER represents and warrants, as to such information with respect to the COMPANY and himself or herself, that the Registration Statement will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading and that the STOCKHOLDERS and the COMPANY have had the opportunity to review and approve such information. If, prior to the 25th day after the date of the final prospectus of VPI utilized in connection with the IPO, the COMPANY or the STOCKHOLDERS become aware of any fact or circumstance which would change (or, if after the Closing Date, would have changed) a representation or warranty of the COMPANY or the STOCKHOLDERS in this Agreement or would affect any document delivered pursuant hereto in any material respect, the COMPANY and the STOCKHOLDERS shall immediately give notice of such fact or circumstance to VPI. However, subject to the provisions of Section 7.8, such notification shall not relieve either the COMPANY or the STOCKHOLDERS of their respective obligations under this Agreement, and, subject to the provisions of Section 7.8, at the sole option of VPI, the truth and accuracy of any and all warranties and representations of the COMPANY, or on behalf of the COMPANY and of STOCKHOLDERS at the date of this Agreement and on the Pre-Closing Date and on the Closing Date, contained in this Agreement (including the Schedules and Annexes hereto) shall be a precondition to the consummation of this transaction.

• Preparation of Registration Statement The parties hereto shall jointly prepare as promptly as practicable a proxy statement to be mailed to the stockholders of Seller who are to vote upon this Agreement and the Parent Merger Documents in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and to be part of the Registration Statement to be filed by Acquiror with the Commission pursuant to the 1933 Act with respect to the shares to be issued in connection with the Mergers. When the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto shall become effective, and at all times subsequent to such effectiveness, up to and including the time of the last stockholder meeting with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, such Registration Statement and all amendments or supplements thereto, with respect to all information set forth therein furnished or to be furnished by Acquiror and Acquiror Sub relating to Acquiror and Acquiror Sub and by Seller and Seller Subsidiary relating to Seller and the Seller Subsidiary, (i) will comply in all material respects with the provisions of the 1933 Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder and (ii) will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading. Acquiror will advise Seller promptly after it receives notice thereof of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective or any supplement or amendment thereto has been filed, of the issuance of any stop order, of the suspension of the qualification of the Acquiror Common Stock issuable in connection with the Merger for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for any such purpose, or of any request by the Commission for the amendment or supplement of the Registration Statement or for additional information.

• Registration Statement Form Registrations under this Section 2.1 shall be on such appropriate registration form of the Commission as shall be reasonably selected by the Company.
