Registration, etc Each Pledgor agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, if for any reason the Collateral Agent desires to sell any of the Pledged Securities of the Borrower at a public sale, it will, at any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Collateral Agent, use its best efforts to take or to cause the issuer of such Pledged Securities to take such action and prepare, distribute and/or file such documents, as are required or advisable in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Collateral Agent to permit the public sale of such Pledged Securities. Each Pledgor further agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Collateral Agent, each other Secured Party, any underwriter and their respective officers, directors, affiliates and controlling persons from and against all loss, liability, expenses, costs of counsel (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses to the Collateral Agent of legal counsel), and claims (including the costs of investigation) that they may incur insofar as such loss, liability, expense or claim arises out of or is based upon any alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or in any notification or offering circular, or arises out of or is based upon any alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements in any thereof not misleading, except insofar as the same may have been caused by any untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished in writing to such Pledgor or the issuer of such Pledged Securities by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party expressly for use therein. Each Pledgor further agrees, upon such written request referred to above, to use its best efforts to qualify, file or register, or cause the issuer of such Pledged Securities to qualify, file or register, any of the Pledged Securities under the Blue Sky or other securities laws of such states as may be requested by the Collateral Agent and keep effective, or cause to be kept effective, all such qualifications, filings or registrations. Each Pledgor will bear all costs and expenses of carrying out its obligations under this Section 12. Each Pledgor acknowledges that there is no adequate remedy at law for failure by it to comply with the provisions of this Section 12 and that such failure would not be adequately compensable in damages, and therefore agrees that its agreements contained in this Section 12 may be specifically enforced.

Registration of the Shares (i) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prepare and file with the SEC, by August 31, 2011, a Registration Statement under the Securities Act to permit the public sale of the Restricted Stock and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. The Selling Stockholders shall furnish such information as may be reasonably requested by the Company in order to include such Restricted Stock in such Registration Statement. If the Selling Stockholders decide not to include all or any portion of their Restricted Stock in such Registration Statement, then the Company shall have no further obligation to include such Restricted Stock in any subsequent Registration Statement or Registration Statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities.

If the managing underwriter thereof advises the Company in writing that in its opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Company, the Company shall include in such registration: (A) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell, and (B) second, the Restricted Stock and any other registrable securities eligible and requested to be included in such registration to the extent that the number of shares to be registered under this clause (B) will not, in the opinion of the managing underwriter, adversely affect the offering of the securities pursuant to clause (A). In such a case, shares shall be registered pro rata among the holders of such Restricted Stock and registrable securities on the basis of the number of shares eligible for registration that are owned by all such holders and requested to be included in such registration.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company's obligation in Sections 7(b)(i) and (ii) above shall extend only to the inclusion of the Restricted Stock in a Registration Statement. The Company shall have no obligation to assure the terms and conditions of distribution, to obtain a commitment from an underwriter relative to the sale of the Restricted Stock, or to otherwise assume any responsibility for the manner, price or terms of the distribution of the Restricted Stock.
(iv) The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 7(b) prior to the effectiveness of such registration without thereby incurring liability to the holders of the Restricted Stock, regardless of whether any holder has elected to include securities in such registration. The Registration Expenses (as defined in Section 7(e)) of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 7(d) hereof.
Segregation and Registration Except as otherwise provided herein, and except for securities to be delivered to any subcustodian appointed pursuant to Sections 14.2 or 14.3 hereof, the Bank as custodian will receive and hold pursuant to the provisions hereof, in a separate account or accounts and physically segregated at all times from those of other persons, any and all Portfolio Securities which may now or hereafter be delivered to it by or for the account of the Fund.
