Any withholding taxes demand for a Demand Registration shall specify the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be registered. Subject to the conditions of this definition, the Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file such Registration Statement under the Securities Act within 90 days after the date any such request is received by the Buyer, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective and maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement from the date of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement until the earlier of (A) 12 months after the date such Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC, or (B) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement have been sold; provided, however, that, if at any time or from time to time after the date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the Buyer notifies the Members in writing of the existence of a Disadvantageous Condition (as defined below), no Member shall offer or sell any of the Registrable Securities, or engage in any other transaction involving or relating to the Registrable Securities, from the time of the giving of notice with respect to a Disadvantageous Condition until the Buyer notifies the Members that such Disadvantageous Condition either has been disclosed to the public or no longer constitutes a Disadvantageous Condition. The Buyer shall notify the Members promptly when any such Registration Statement has been declared effective. Buyer shall not be obligated to effect more than one (1) Demand Registration in respect of the Registrable Securities, unless the Members requesting such registration are unable to register all of the Registrable Securities identified in the demand to be included in such registration by reason of the Buyer’s compliance with the SEC Restrictions set forth in Section 1.1(d)(iv) or otherwise. Buyer shall not be obligated to file a Registration Statement relating to a Demand Registration request pursuant to this section at any time the Buyer’s Board of Directors determines, in its good faith judgment, that Buyer (A) should not file any Registration statement otherwise required to be withheld from payments made filed pursuant to this section or (B) should withdraw any such previously filed Registration Statement, in either case solely because the Board of Directors determines, after consultation with legal counsel, that the Buyer is in the possession of material nonpublic information required to be disclosed in such Registration Statement or an amendment or supplement thereto, the disclosure of which in such Registration Statement would be materially disadvantageous to the Buyer (a “Disadvantageous Condition”). In such case the Buyer shall be entitled to postpone for a reasonable period of time the filing of such Registration Statement (but in no event more than 90 days) or, if such Registration Statement has already been filed, may suspend or withdraw such Registration Statement and shall promptly give the Members written notice of such determination and an approximation of the anticipated delay. Upon the receipt of any such notice, such Members shall forthwith discontinue use of the prospectus contained in such Registration Statement and, if so directed by the Buyer, shall deliver to the Buyer all copies of the prospectus then covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice (or, if no Registration Statement has yet been filed, all drafts of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities). If any Disadvantageous Condition shall cease to exist, the Buyer shall promptly notify the Members to such effect. If any Registration Statement shall have been withdrawn, the Buyer shall, at such time as it is possible file a new Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities that were covered by such withdrawn Registration Statement.
(ii) The Buyer shall notify the Members at any time when a prospectus relating to the Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, upon discovery that, or upon the happening of any event as a result of which, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing. At the request of any Member, the Buyer shall also prepare, file and furnish to the Members a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus shall 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 not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing. Each Member agrees not to offer or sell any Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement after receipt of such notification until the receipt of such supplement or amendment.

The Company may postpone or withdraw the filing or the effectiveness of a Piggyback Registration at any time in its sole discretion. A Piggyback Registration shall not be considered a Demand Registration.
(iv) Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this section, if at any time the SEC takes the position that the offering of some or all of the Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement is not eligible to be made on a delayed or continuous basis under the provisions of Rule 415 under the Securities Act, the Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the SEC that the offering contemplated by the Registration Statement is a valid secondary offering and not an offering “by or on behalf of the issuer” as defined in Rule 415. In the event that, despite the Buyer’s commercially reasonable efforts and compliance with the terms of this section, the SEC refuses to alter its position, the Buyer shall (A) remove from the Registration Statement such portion of the Registrable Securities and other securities (“Other Registrable Securities”) that were included in the initial Registration Statement filing (“Cut-back Shares”) and/or (B) agree to such restrictions and limitations on the registration and resale of the Registrable Securities as the SEC may require to assure the Buyer’s compliance with the requirements of Rule 415 (collectively, the “SEC Restrictions”). Any cut-back imposed on the Members pursuant to this section shall be retained allocated among the Members and the holders of Other Registrable Securities on a ratable basis in proportion to the number of Registrable Securities and Other Registrable Securities held by such Members and holders. From and after the date on which the Buyer is able to effectuate registration of such Cut-back Shares in accordance with any SEC Restriction, all of the provisions of this section shall again be applicable to such Cut-back Shares.

(vi) All fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this section by the Buyer shall be borne by the Buyer whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to the Registration Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing sentence shall include, without limitation, (A) all registration and filing fees (including, without limitation, fees and expenses (1) with respect to filings required to be made with the trading market on which the Buyer Common Stock is then listed for trading, and (2) in compliance with applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws, (B) printing expenses, (C) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, and (D) fees and disbursements of counsel and independent registered public accountants for the Buyer.
(vii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, as to the Registrable Securities, such securities shall cease to be Registrable Securities and the provisions of this section shall terminate when: (A) a Registration Statement and/or a Piggyback Registration Statement with respect to the sale of such securities shall have become effective under the Securities Act and such securities shall have been sold, transferred, disposed of or exchanged in accordance with such Registration Statement and/or Piggyback Registration Statement; (B) such securities shall have been otherwise transferred, new certificates for them not bearing a legend restricting further transfer shall have been delivered by the Buyer and subsequent public distribution of them shall not require registration under the Securities Act; or (C) such securities shall have ceased to be outstanding.
