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.
