meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter and any other Holder selling securities under such registration statement or any of such other Holder's partners, members, managers, directors, officers
or stockholders or any person who controls such Holder, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or any such person may become subject under the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the
extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder under an instrument duly executed by such Holder and
stated to be specifically for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will pay as incurred any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such person in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if it is judicially determined that there was such a Violation; provided,
however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.6(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action
if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided further, that in no event
shall any indemnity under this Section 2.6 exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.
- (c)
- Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 2.6 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a "Violation") by the Company: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law in connection with the offering covered by such registration statement.

6
- (d)
- If
the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.6 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable law contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on
the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the Violation(s) that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by
a Holder hereunder exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.
- (e)
- The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 2.6 shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement and the termination of this Agreement. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if materially prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 2.6, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 2.6.
- 2.7
- Assignment of Registration Rights. The right to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2 may be assigned by a Holder to a transferee or assignee of Registrable Securities (and any such assignee or transferee shall thereafter be deemed a Holder under this Agreement) which (a) is a subsidiary, parent, general partner, limited partner, retired partner, member, retired member or affiliate of a Holder, (b) is a Holder's immediate family member or trust for the benefit of an individual Holder or immediate family members, (c) acquires at least 50,000 shares of Registrable Securities (as adjusted for stock splits, combinations and similar events), or (d) acquires 50% or more the Registrable Securities purchased by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement; provided, however, (i) the transferor shall, within ten (10) days after such transfer, furnish to the Company written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned and (ii) such transferee shall agree to be subject to all restrictions set forth in this Agreement by executing a counterpart signature page hereto (which shall not be deemed to be an amendment hereto).
7
- 2.8
- Amendment of Registration Rights. Any provision of this Section 2 may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived
(either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), in accordance with Section 4.6 of this Agreement. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance herein
shall be binding upon each Holder and the Company. By acceptance of any benefits under this Section 2, Holders of Registrable Securities hereby agree to be bound by the provisions hereunder.

any Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company held by such Holder (other than those included in the registration) for a period specified by the representative of the underwriters of Common
Stock (or other securities) of the Company, if any, not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the

securities enter into similar agreements. Each Holder agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriter which are consistent with the
foregoing or which are necessary to give further effect thereto. The provisions of this Section 2.9 shall not apply to any registration statement related solely to securities offered under any
employee benefit plan, including any registration statement filed on Form S-8 and similar or successor forms, or any registration statement relating to a transaction subject to
Rule 145 under the Securities Act and filed on Form S-4 and similar or successor forms.
