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.
Underwritten Offerings In the event of an underwritten offering, the Company and each Holder will make such arrangements with the underwriters so that such Holder may participate in the offering on the same terms as the Company and any other party selling securities in such offering. The Company will not be required under this Section 2 to include any of a Holder’s Registrable Securities in such underwriting unless such Holder accepts the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriter or underwriters selected by it (or by other persons entitled to select the underwriter or underwriters) and enters into an underwriting agreement in customary form with an underwriter or underwriters selected by the Company, and then only in such quantity as the managing underwriters determine would not reasonably be expected to jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company (the “Maximum Offering Size”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this agreement, if the managing underwriter(s) determine(s) in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the managing underwriter(s) may exclude shares (including Registrable Securities) from the Registration and the underwriting, and the number of shares that may be included in such Registration and the underwriting will be allocated in the following priority up to the Maximum Offering Size, (i) first, to the Company for securities that the Company proposes to Register for its own account; (ii) second, to each Holder, and any other holders of Common Stock who executed a registration rights agreement on the date hereof (and any of their permitted transferees, as defined in such registration rights agreement), that requests inclusion of its Registrable Securities in such registration statement, pro rata based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holder, (iii) third, to any other holders of incidental or “piggyback” registration rights requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities in such registration statement, on a pari passu basis based upon the Registrable Securities held by such holders; and (iv) fourth, to other securities of the Company to be registered on behalf of any other holder with priorities among them as the Company shall determine. Any Registrable Securities excluded and withdrawn from such underwriting will be withdrawn from the Registration. For any Holder that is a partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners and shareholders of such Holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons will be deemed to be a single “Holder,” and any pro rata reduction with respect to such “Holder” will be based upon the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities owned by all Persons included in such “Holder,” as described in this sentence.
Piggyback Underwritten Offerings In the case of a registration pursuant to Section 2.2 which involves an underwritten offering, the Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement in connection therewith and all of the Participating Holders’ Registrable Securities to be included in such registration shall be subject to such underwriting agreement. Any Participating Holder may, at its option, require that any or all of the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of such underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of such Participating Holder and that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement be conditions precedent to the obligations of such Participating Holder; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to make any representations or warranties with respect to written information specifically provided by a Participating Holder for inclusion in the registration statement. Each such Participating Holder shall not be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Participating Holder, its ownership of and title to the Registrable Securities, any written information specifically provided by such Participating Holder for inclusion in the registration statement and its intended method of distribution; and any liability of such Participating Holder to any underwriter or other Person under such underwriting agreement shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Participating Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement and shall be limited to liability for written information specifically provided by such Participating Holder.
Requested Underwritten Offerings If the Initiating Holders request an underwritten offering pursuant to a registration under Section 2.1 (pursuant to a request for a registration statement to be filed in connection with a specific underwritten offering or a request for a shelf takedown in the form of an underwritten offering), the Company shall enter into a customary underwriting agreement with the underwriters. Such underwriting agreement shall (i) be satisfactory in form and substance to the Majority Participating Holders, (ii) contain terms not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement and (iii) contain such representations and warranties by, and such other agreements on the part of, the Company and such other terms as are generally prevailing in agreements of that type, including, without limitation, indemnities and contribution agreements on substantially the same terms as those contained herein (it being understood that an underwriting agreement in substantially the form of the underwriting agreement for the IPO shall be deemed to satisfy the foregoing requirements). Any Participating Holder shall be a party to such underwriting agreement and may, at its option, require that any or all of the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of such underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of such Participating Holder and that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement be conditions precedent to the obligations of such Participating Holder; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to make any representations or warranties with respect to written information specifically provided by a Participating Holder for inclusion in the registration statement. Each such Participating Holder shall not be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Participating Holder, its ownership of and title to the Registrable Securities, any written information specifically provided by such Participating Holder for inclusion in the registration statement and its intended method of distribution; and any liability of such Participating Holder to any underwriter or other Person under such underwriting agreement shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement and shall be limited to liability for written information specifically provided by such Participating Holder.
Incidental Underwritten Offerings If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act as contemplated by Article II of this Agreement and such securities are to be distributed by or through one or more underwriters, the Company will, if requested by any holder of Registrable Securities as provided in Article II of this Agreement, arrange for such underwriters to include all the Registrable Securities to be offered and sold by such holder, subject to the limitations set forth in Article II hereof, among the securities to be distributed by such underwriters. The holders of Registrable Securities to be distributed by such underwriters shall be parties to the underwriting agreement between the Company and such underwriters, and may, at their option, require that any or all of the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of such underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of such holders of Registrable Securities and that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement be conditions precedent to the obligations of such holders of Registrable Securities. The Company shall cooperate with any such holder of Registrable Securities in order to limit any representations or warranties to, or agreements with, the Company or the underwriters to be made by such holder only to those representations, warranties or agreements regarding such holder, such holder's Registrable Securities and such holder's intended method of distribution and any other representation required by law.
Underwritten Registration or Underwritten Offering A registration in which securities of the Company are sold to an underwriter for reoffering to the public.
Participation in Underwritten Offerings No Person may participate in any underwritten offerings hereunder unless such Person (a) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements and these registration rights provided for in this Article II.
Piggyback Registration Rights To the extent the Company does not maintain an effective registration statement for the Warrant Shares and in the further event that the Company files a registration statement with the Commission covering the sale of its shares of Common Stock (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8, or on another form, or in another context, in which such “piggyback” registration would be inappropriate), then, for a period commencing on the Initial Exercise Date and terminating on the second (2nd) anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date, the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to the holders of Warrant Shares as soon as practicable but in no event less than ten (10) business days before the anticipated filing date, which notice shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, of the offering, and offer to the holders of Warrant Shares in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of shares of Warrant Shares as such holders may request in writing within five (5) business days after receipt of such notice (a “Piggyback Registration”). The Company shall cause such Warrant Shares to be included in such registration and shall use its best efforts to cause the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the Warrant Shares requested to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Warrant Shares in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All holders of Warrant Shares proposing to distribute their securities through a Piggyback Registration that involves an underwriter or underwriters shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such Piggyback Registration.
Restrictions on Public Sale by Holders of Registrable Securities Each Holder of Registrable Securities agrees, if requested by the underwriters of an Underwritten Offering, to enter into a customary letter agreement with such underwriters providing such Holder will not effect any public sale or distribution of Registrable Securities during the 60 calendar day period beginning on the date of a prospectus or prospectus supplement filed with the Commission with respect to the pricing of any Underwritten Offering, provided that (i) the duration of the foregoing restrictions shall be no longer than the duration of the shortest restriction generally imposed by the underwriters on the Partnership or the officers, directors or any other Affiliate of the Partnership on whom a restriction is imposed and (ii) the restrictions set forth in this Section 2.07 shall not apply to any Registrable Securities that are included in such Underwritten Offering by such Holder. In addition, this Section 2.07 shall not apply to any Holder that is not entitled to participate in such Underwritten Offering, whether because such Holder delivered an Opt-Out Notice prior to receiving notice of the Underwritten Offering or because such Holder holds less than $15 million of the then-outstanding Registrable Securities.
Piggyback Registration If the Company at any time within two (2) years after complete exercise of this Warrant, but no more than seven (7) years from the date of this Warrant, proposes to register under the 1933 Act (except by a Form S-4 or Form S-8 Registration Statement or any successor forms thereto) or qualify for a public distribution under Section 3(b) of the 1933 Act, any of its securities, it will give written notice to all Holders of this Warrant, any Warrants issued pursuant to Section 2 and/or Section 3(a) hereof, and any Warrant Shares of its intention to do so and, on the written request of any such Holder given within twenty (20) days after receipt of any such notice (which request shall specify the Warrant Shares intended to be sold or disposed of by such Holder and describe the nature of any proposed sale or other disposition thereof), the Company will use its best efforts to cause all such Warrant Shares, the Holders of which shall have requested the registration or qualification thereof, to be included in such registration statement proposed to be filed by the Company; provided, however, that if a greater number of Warrant Shares is offered for participation in the proposed offering than in the reasonable opinion of the managing underwriter of the proposed offering (which opinion shall be in writing and delivered to the Holders) can be accommodated without adversely affecting the proposed offering, then the amount of Warrant Shares proposed to be offered by such Holders for registration, as well as the number of securities of any other selling shareholders participating in the registration, shall not be included or shall be proportionately reduced to a number deemed satisfactory by the managing underwriter. With respect to each inclusion of securities in a registration statement pursuant to this Section 9(a), the selling Holders shall pay the fees and disbursements of special counsel and accountants for the selling Holders, and underwriting discounts or commissions and transfer taxes applicable to the selling Holders’ shares, and the Company shall pay all other costs and expenses of the registration, including but not limited to all registration, filing and NASD fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and accountants for the Company, all internal expenses, and legal fees and disbursements and other expenses of complying with state securities laws of any jurisdictions in which the securities to be offered are to be registered or qualified. The Company need not maintain the effectiveness of any such registration, qualification, notification or approval, whether or not at the request of the Holders, more than six (6) months following the effective date thereof.
