Underwritten Offering Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.1.4 and Section 2.4 hereof, if a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders so advise the Company as part of their Demand Registration that the offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an Underwritten Offering, then the right of such Demanding Holder or Requesting Holder (if any) to include its Registrable Securities in such Registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such Underwritten Offering and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Offering to the extent provided herein. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.1.3 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating the Demand Registration.
Reduction of Underwritten Offering If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration, in good faith, advises the Company, the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell and the Common Stock, if any, as to which a Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by any other stockholders who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then the Company shall include in such Underwritten Offering, as follows: (i) first, the Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Demanding Holder and Requesting Holder (if any) has requested be included in such Underwritten Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders and Requesting Holders have requested be included in such Underwritten Registration (such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Registrable Securities of Holders (Pro Rata, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has so requested) exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.2.1 hereof, without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iv) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the Common Stock or other equity securities of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register in a Registration pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.
Piggyback Registration Subject to Section 4.8, if at any time the Registrant determines that it shall file a registration statement under the Securities Act (other than a registration statement on a Form S-4 or S-8 or filed in connection with an exchange offer or an offering of securities solely to the Registrant’s existing stockholders) on any form that would also permit the registration of the Registrable Securities and such filing is to be on its behalf and/or on behalf of selling holders of its securities for the general registration of its Common Stock to be sold for cash, the Registrant shall each such time promptly give each Holder written notice of such determination setting forth the date on which the Registrant proposes to file such registration statement, which date shall be no earlier than thirty (30) days from the date of such notice, and advising each Holder of its right to have Registrable Shares included in such registration. Upon the written request of any Holder received by the Registrant no later than ten (10) days after the date of the Registrant’s notice, the Registrant shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be registered under the Securities Act all of the Registrable Shares that each such Holder has so requested to be registered (a “Piggyback Registration”); provided, that if at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any equity securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such Piggyback Registration, the Registrant shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay registration of the equity securities covered by such Piggyback Registration, the Registrant shall give written notice of such determination to each Holder that had requested to register its Registrable Shares in such registration statement and thereupon, (x) in the case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Shares in connection with such registration and (y) in the case of a determination to delay registration, in the absence of a request by the Holders to request that such registration be effected as a demand registration under Sections 4.1 or 4.2, shall be permitted to delay registering any Registrable Shares, for the same period as the delay in registering the other equity securities covered by such Piggyback Registration. If, in the written opinion of the managing underwriter (or, in the case of a non-underwritten offering, in the written opinion of the Registrant), the total amount of such securities to be so registered, including such Registrable Shares, will exceed the maximum amount of the Registrant’s securities which can be marketed (a) at a price reasonably related to the then current market value of such securities, or (b) without otherwise materially and adversely affecting the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the market for the securities offered, then the Registrant shall be entitled to reduce the number of Registrable Shares that each such Holder has so requested to be registered to that number which in the written opinion of the managing underwriter would permit all such Registrant securities to be so marketed. Such reduction shall be allocated among all such Holders in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the amount of Registrable Shares owned by each Holder at the time of filing the registration statement.
