Related to Registration Rights With Respect to the Warrants and the Warrant Shares

• Rights, Options and Warrants If the Company distributes, to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, rights, options or warrants (other than rights issued or otherwise distributed pursuant to a stockholder rights plan, as to which Sections 5.05(A)(iii)(1) and 5.05(F) will apply) entitling such holders, for a period of not more than sixty (60) calendar days after the record date of such distribution, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date such distribution is announced, then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula: where: CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; CR1 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; OS = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; X = the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and Y = a number of shares of Common Stock obtained by dividing (x) the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants by (y) the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date such distribution is announced. To the extent such rights, options or warrants are not so distributed, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase to the Conversion Rate for such distribution been made on the basis of only the rights, options or warrants, if any, actually distributed. In addition, to the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants (including as a result of such rights, options or warrants not being exercised), the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase to the Conversion Rate for such distribution been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered upon exercise of such rights, option or warrants. For purposes of this Section 5.05(A)(ii) and Section 5.01(C)(i)(3)(a)(I), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle holders of Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date the distribution of such rights, options or warrants is announced, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there will be taken into account any consideration the Company receives for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, with the value of such consideration, if not cash, to be determined by the Company in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner.

• No Preemptive Rights, Registration Rights or Options Except as described in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there are no (i) preemptive rights or other rights to subscribe for or to purchase, nor any restriction upon the voting or transfer of, any equity interests in the Partnership Entities or (ii) outstanding options or warrants to purchase any securities of the Partnership Entities.

• Registration of Warrant Shares (a) If (but without any obligation to do so) the Company proposes to register (including for this purpose a registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than the Holders) any of its stock or other securities under the Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than a registration statement relating either to the sale of securities to employees of the Company pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or similar plan or a SEC Rule 145 transaction), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder written notice of such proposed registration. Upon the written request of each Holder given within twenty (20) days after mailing of such notice by the Company in accordance with Section 18(d) hereof, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 8(c), endeavor to cause to be registered under the Act all of the Warrant Shares that each such Holder has requested to be registered. (b) Whenever required under this Section 8(a) to effect the registration of any Warrant Shares, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible use reasonable efforts to (i) file a registration statement (the "Registration Statement"), registering for resale the Warrant Shares and (ii) cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable. The Company promptly shall provide each Holder with such copies of the final prospectus contained in the Registration Statement after it becomes effective as they shall reasonably request. In addition, the Company shall (a) use reasonable efforts to keep the Registration Statement effective for a period ending on the earlier of (x) 120 days from its effective date or (y) when all such Warrant Shares can be sold without limitation or delay under Rule 144 and (b) file all reports and forms required to be filed by it under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Reports") on a timely basis so long as each Holder owns any Warrant Shares and shall provide each Holder copies thereof when filed. (c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to postpone the filing of the Registration Statement otherwise required to be prepared and filed by it in accordance with subparagraph (b) or, in the event the Registration Statement has been declared effective, without suspending such effectiveness, instruct the Holder promptly in writing (or any subsequent holders thereof) not to sell or distribute any Warrant Shares (a "Delay") as long as the reason for non-disclosure continues, if the Company would be required to disclose in the Registration Statement the existence of any fact relating to a material business situation, transaction or negotiation, or would be required to disclose information that the Company has not otherwise made public, in each case, that the Company reasonably determines is in the best interests of the Company not to disclose at such time, and unless and until each Holder furnishes to the Company in writing information that may be required to prepare the disclosure required by Items 507 and 508 of Regulation S-B promulgated under the Act, with respect to such Holder's Warrant Shares being sold under the Registration Statement provided that, with respect to Delays because of information related to the Company (rather than disclosure required to be provided by the holders), the Company shall only be entitled to a maximum of three (3) Delays, each Delay not to exceed a period of thirty (30) days; and further provided, that no period of Delay shall commence within 60 days of a previous Delay. (d) Each Holder shall (i) reasonably cooperate with the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement and execute and deliver any agreements or instruments reasonably requested by the Company or its counsel in connection therewith and (ii) upon discovery that, or upon the happening of any event as a result of which, the Registration Statement (or any prospectus included therein), 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 the light of the circumstances under which they were made (as determined by the Company or its counsel in its sole discretion), forthwith discontinue its disposition of Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement, until such time as such Holder (or any holders) have received a supplemented or amended prospectus from the Company relating thereto. The Company agrees to use its best efforts to prepare any necessary amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable after the same becomes necessary and to provide to each Holder quantities of such amendments or supplements reasonably sufficient for the distribution thereof. (e) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Holder and its respective officers, directors, employees, members, agents, affiliates and control persons (each of the foregoing, a "Holder Indemnitee") who is or may be a party or is or may be threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative by reason of or arising from any actual or alleged misrepresentation or misstatement of facts or omission to represent or state any fact or omission to state a fact necessary to make the facts stated under the circumstances not materially misleading, in the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto or to the prospectus incorporated therein from and against any claim, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including attorney's fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) ("Loss") actually and reasonably incurred by any such Holder Indemnitee in connection with such claim, action, suit or proceeding or the defense thereof, except to the extent such Loss is the direct result of a misstatement or omission for which such Holder Indemnitee is liable to the Company under Section 9(i); provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 8(e) with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder Indemnitee on account of any such Loss arising from the sale of the Warrant Shares by such Holder Indemnitee to any person if a copy of the definitive prospectus shall not have been delivered or sent to such person within the time required by the Act and the regulations thereunder, and an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission of a material fact contained in such preliminary prospectus was corrected in the definitive prospectus. (f) In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company shall not be required under Section 8(a) to include any of the Holders’ Warrant Shares in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then only in such quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If the total amount of securities, including Warrant Shares, requested by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by the Company that the underwriters determine in their sole discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Warrant Shares, which the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the securities so included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling stockholders according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each selling stockholder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by such selling stockholders).

In the event that any Target Options and Target Warrants are exercised by the holder thereof prior to or simultaneous with the Closing, all shares of Target Common Stock issued upon exercise thereof shall be converted into Parent Shares in accordance with Section 1.2(a)(iii) of the Merger Agreement. (b) At and after the Effective Time: (i) each Target Option and Target Warrant then outstanding shall entitle the holder thereof to acquire the number (rounded down to the nearest whole number) of shares of Parent Common Stock determined by multiplying (x) the number of shares of Target Common Stock subject to such Target Option or Target Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (y) the Exchange Ratio; and (ii) the exercise price per share of Parent Common Stock subject to any Target Option or Target Warrant at and after the Effective Time shall be an amount (rounded down to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) equal to (x) the exercise price per share of Target Common Stock subject to such Target Option or Target Warrant prior to the Effective Time, divided by (y) the Exchange Ratio. (c) Other than as provided in subsections (a) and (b) above, as of and after the Effective Time, each Target Option and Target Warrant then outstanding shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time (including, but not limited to, the acceleration of exercisability or conversion, as applicable, as of the date of approval of the Merger by the shareholders of the Company), but giving effect to the Merger (it being understood that any performance criteria to which such Target Option, and or Target Warrant remains subject may be equitably adjusted by Parent to reflect the consummation of the Merger).
