The foregoing provisions shall not apply to any holder of Registrable Securities if such holder is prevented by applicable statute or regulation from entering into any such agreement; provided, however, that any such holder shall undertake, in its request to participate in any such underwritten offering, not to effect any public sale or distribution of Registrable Securities (except as part of such underwritten registration) during such period unless it has provided 45 days prior written notice of such sale or distribution to the managing underwriter or underwriter.
