Obligations of Company Whenever the Company is required by the provisions of this Agreement to use commercially efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall: (i) prepare and, as soon as possible, file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to the Registrable Securities, and use commercially efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective and to remain effective until the earlier of the sale of the Registrable Securities so registered or 180 days subsequent to the effective date of such registration; (ii) furnish to counsel for the Holders prior to filing copies of all registration statements proposed to be filed pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement; (iii) notify Holders of the effectiveness of any registration statement required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement; (iv) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to make and to keep such registration statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the sale or other disposition of all securities proposed to be registered in such registration statement until the earlier of the sale of the Registrable Securities so registered or 180 days subsequent to the effective date of such registration statement; (v) furnish to any Holder such number of copies of any prospectus (including any preliminary prospectus and any amended or supplemented prospectus), in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, as such Holder may reasonably request in order to effect the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities to be offered and sold, but only while the Company shall be required under the provisions hereof to cause the registration statement to remain current; (vi) use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under the securities or blue sky laws of such states as Holder shall reasonably request, maintain any such registration or qualification current until the earlier of the sale of the Registrable Securities so registered or 180 days subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement, and take any and all other actions either necessary or reasonably advisable to enable Holders to consummate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities in jurisdictions where such Holders desire to effect such sales or other disposition; (vii) take all such other actions either necessary or reasonably desirable to permit the Registrable Securities held by a Holder to be registered and disposed of in accordance with the method of disposition described herein; (viii) notify each seller of Registrable Securities, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, subject to Sections 3.1 and 4.2 above, at the request of any such seller, the Company shall prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ix) cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed; (x) enter into such customary agreements (including underwriting agreements in customary form) and take all such other actions as the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold or the underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities; (xi) make available for inspection by any seller of Registrable Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company's officers, directors, employees and independent accountant to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement; and, (xii) in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a registration statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any common stock included in such registration statement for sale in any jurisdiction, the Company shall use its best efforts promptly to obtain the withdrawal of such order. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to register or to qualify an offering of the Registrable Securities under the laws of a state if as a condition to so doing the Company is required to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such state or jurisdiction, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction.
