(i) all information reasonably requested by the Company that is required to be or is customarily disclosed for directors, candidates for directors and their respective Affiliates and Representatives in a proxy statement or other filings in accordance with applicable Law, any stock exchange rules or listing standards or the Company Charter Documents or corporate governance guidelines;

(ii) all information reasonably requested by the Company in connection with assessing eligibility, independence and other criteria applicable to directors or satisfying compliance and legal or regulatory obligations;

(iii) an undertaking in writing by the Purchaser Designee:

a. to be subject to, bound by and duly comply with a standard confidentiality agreement in a form acceptable to the Company, the code of conduct and other policies of the Company, in each case, solely to the extent applicable to all other non-executive directors of the Company; and

b. at the request of the Board to recuse himself or herself from any deliberations or discussion of the Board or any committee thereof to the extent regarding the Company’s relationship with the Purchaser Parties or any of their Affiliates, or matters arising under the Transaction Documents or the Transactions.

(f) If a special or other ad-hoc committee of the Board is formed after the Closing Date to evaluate any transaction with an Affiliate of the Company (for these purposes, including Xxxxx Xxxxxx) (other than (i) any matter contemplated under the New Governance Agreement, (ii) any compensation matters approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board, or (iii) any matters (including any resolution (by settlement or otherwise)) relating to or arising out of certain stockholder litigation currently pending in the Delaware Court of Chancery (which are subject to the oversight of the Special Litigation Committee of the Board formed on December 3, 2019)), the Purchaser Director shall have the right to be appointed (unless waived by the Purchaser or the Purchaser Director) to such committee; provided, that such Purchaser Director is in office at such time and is disinterested and independent with respect to the matter under consideration, without prejudice to the provisions of sub-clause (iii)(b) of Section 5.09(e).

(g) Neither any Purchaser Director who is an employee of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates nor the Purchaser Board Observer shall be entitled to any compensation from the Company for his or her position on the Board (other than reimbursement of expenses pursuant to the Company’s reimbursement policies for non-executive directors). The Company shall indemnify the Purchaser Director and provide the Purchaser Director with director and officer insurance to the same extent as it indemnifies and provides such insurance to other non-executive members of the Board, pursuant to the Company Charter Documents, the DGCL or otherwise. The Company hereby acknowledges that the Purchaser Director may have rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by the Purchaser or its Affiliates (directly or through insurance obtained by any such entity) (collectively, the “Director Indemnitors”). The Company hereby agrees and acknowledges that (i) it is the indemnitor of first resort with respect to the Purchaser Director, (ii) it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by the Purchaser Director, as required by law, the terms of the Company Charter Documents, an agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, without regard to any rights the Purchaser Director may have against the Director Indemnitors and (iii) to the extent permitted by law, it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Director Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Director Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Director Indemnitors on behalf of the Company with respect to any claim for which the Purchaser Director have sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the Director Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Purchaser Director against the Company. These rights shall be a contract right.

(h) Each of the Purchaser Director and the Purchaser Board Observer shall be permitted to share information received in his or her capacity as such with the Purchaser Parties so long as such Purchaser Parties remain subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement, as provided in Section 5.04; provided, that so long as the Purchaser Director or the Purchaser Board Observer receive information in his or her capacity as such, any such confidentiality provisions shall (notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Confidentiality Agreement) remain in effect. Neither the Purchaser Director nor the Purchaser Board Observer shall participate in, and each of them shall, at the request of the Board, recuse himself or herself from, and the Purchaser shall cause each of them not to participate in, and to recuse himself or herself from, any Board deliberations and actions relating to the Company’s relationship with the Purchaser Parties, or matters arising under the Transaction Documents or the Transactions.

Section 5.10 Voting. From and after the Closing and until the Fall-Away of Purchaser Board Rights:

(a) At each meeting of the stockholders of the Company involving the election of directors following the execution of this Agreement and at every postponement or adjournment thereof, the Purchasers shall, and shall cause the Purchaser Parties to, take such action as may be required so that all of the voting equity securities of the Company beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by the Purchaser Parties and entitled to vote at such meeting of stockholders are voted in favor of each director nominated or recommended by the Board for election.

(b) Until the Fall-Away of Purchaser Board Rights, the Purchasers shall, and shall (to the extent necessary to comply with this Section 5.10) cause the Purchaser Parties to, be present, in person or by proxy, at all meetings of the stockholders of the Company so that all voting equity of the Company beneficially owned by the Purchasers or the Purchaser Parties may be counted for the purposes of determining the presence of a quorum and voted in accordance with Section 5.10(a) at such meetings (including at any adjournments or postponements thereof).

(c) The provisions of this Section 5.10 shall not apply to the consent rights of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock set forth in Section 8 of the Certificate of Designations.

Section 5.11 Tax Matters. (a) The Company and its paying agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold Taxes on all payments and distributions (or deemed distributions) with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock, the Warrants (or upon the exercise thereof) or the Common Stock issued upon any exercise of Warrants, in each case, to the extent required by applicable Law. To the extent that any amounts are so deducted or withheld, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. In the event the Company previously remitted any amounts to a Governmental Authority on account of Taxes required to be deducted or withheld in respect of any payment or distribution (or deemed distribution) with respect to a share of Series A Preferred Stock or a Warrant (or upon the exercise thereof), the Company shall be entitled (i) to offset any such amounts against any amounts otherwise payable in respect of such share of Series A Preferred Stock or such Warrant (or any Warrant Shares otherwise required to be issued upon the exercise of such Warrant or any amount otherwise payable in respect of a Warrant Share received upon its exercise) or any other amounts otherwise payable by the Company to the relevant

holder or (ii) to require the Person in respect of whom such deduction or withholding was made to reimburse the Company for such amounts (and such Person shall promptly so reimburse the Company upon demand).

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to the date of any payment, distribution or deemed distribution or exercise described in Section 5.11(a), Purchaser and each Permitted Transferee shall have delivered to the Company or its paying agent a duly executed, valid (as of the time of the applicable payment, distribution or deemed distribution or exercise), accurate and properly completed IRS Form W-9, certifying that such Person is a U.S. Person, or IRS Form W-8, evidencing that such Person is eligible for a 0% rate of withholding with respect to U.S.-source dividends under Section 892 of the Code or applicable treaty. The Company shall cooperate in good faith with Purchaser to minimize or eliminate any withholding or deduction described in Section 5.11(a) on any distributions or deemed distributions with respect to Series A Preferred Stock or Warrants beneficially owned by the Purchaser, including by giving the Purchaser an opportunity to provide additional information or to apply for an exemption from, or a reduced rate of, withholding. Without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, neither Purchaser nor any Permitted Transferee shall transfer any Series A Preferred Stock prior to the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date or any Warrant, in each case, to any Person who has not (i) delivered to the Company a duly executed, valid, accurate and properly completed IRS Form W-9, certifying that such Person is a U.S. Person, or IRS Form W-8, evidencing that such Person is eligible for a 0% rate of withholding with respect to U.S.-source dividends under Section 892 of the Code or applicable treaty or (ii) made arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Company to ensure that the Company will not bear unreimbursed withholding tax liability with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock or Warrant as a result of such transfer.

(c) The Purchaser and the Company agree that, subject to the Purchaser’s (or a Permitted Transferee’s) compliance with the first sentence of Section 5.11(b), the Company shall not treat as a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes any amount in respect of the Series A Preferred Stock owned by a Purchaser Party on account of the accrual of dividends at the Dividend Rate (as defined in the Certificate of Designations), unless and until such dividends are declared and paid in cash, and shall not file any Tax Return inconsistent with such treatment unless otherwise required by a change in law or by the IRS or another Governmental Authority following an audit or examination. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall be interpreted as precluding the Company from treating the excess of the initial liquidation preference of a share of Series A Preferred Stock over its allocated purchase price as determined pursuant to this section as a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes, to be taken into account over the four year period beginning on the Closing Date in accordance with the principles of Section 1272(a) of the Code. Within ten (10) days of the Closing Date, the Purchaser and the Silver Lake Purchasers shall determine and deliver to the Company a proposed valuation of the Warrants (the “Purchasers’ Proposed Valuation”). If the Company agrees with such proposed valuation, the proposed valuation shall become the final valuation of the Warrants. If the Company does not agree with the Purchasers’ Proposed Valuation, then within ten (10) days of receipt of the Purchasers’ Proposed Valuation the Company shall determine and deliver to the Purchaser and the Silver Lake Purchasers a proposed valuation of the Warrants (the “Company’s Proposed Valuation”). If the Purchaser, the Silver Lake Purchasers and the Company are not able to come to an agreement as to the final valuation of the Warrants within ten (10) days thereafter, the Purchaser, the Silver Lake

Purchasers and the Company shall agree in good faith on an independent nationally recognized valuation or financial advisory firm to determine the final valuation of the Warrants, which valuation must be within the range of the Purchasers’ Proposed Valuation and the Company’s Proposed Valuation. The costs of such valuation or financial advisory firm shall be split fifty-fifty (50-50) by the Purchaser and the Silver Lake Purchasers on the one hand and the Company on the other hand. Once a final valuation of the Warrants (the “Final Warrant Valuation”) is determined pursuant to the terms of this Section, the Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Series A Preferred Stock and Warrants on the basis of such Final Warrant Valuation, and the Purchaser and the Company agree to not file any Tax Returns inconsistent with such allocation of the Purchase Price, unless otherwise required by the IRS or another Governmental Authority following an audit or examination.

(d) The Company shall pay any and all documentary, stamp and similar issue or transfer Tax (“Transfer Tax”) due on (x) the issue of the Series A Preferred Stock and (y) the issue of Warrant Shares pursuant to the exercise of a Warrant. However, the Company shall not be required to pay any Transfer Tax that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery (or any transfer involved in the issue or delivery) of Series A Preferred Stock or Warrant Shares to a beneficial owner other than the initial beneficial owner of the Series A Preferred Stock or Warrant, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issue or delivery has paid to the Company the amount of any such Transfer Tax or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such Transfer Tax has been paid or is not payable.

Section 5.12 Participation. (a) For the purposes of this Section 5.12, “Excluded Issuance” shall mean: (i) the issuance to directors, officers, employees, consultants, service providers or agents of the Company of Common Stock or Class B Common Stock (x) under employee benefit plans, programs or other compensatory arrangements of the Company or (y) pursuant to the employment inducement exception to the Nasdaq rules regarding shareholder approval of equity compensation plans, including upon the exercise of Company Stock Options, the vesting and settlement of Company RSU Awards, the settlement of Share Units and the vesting and/or settlement of other awards granted under any such employee benefit plan, program or arrangement of the Company; (ii) the granting to directors, officers, employees, consultants, service providers or agents of the Company of Company equity awards denominated in shares of Common Stock or Class B Common Stock (x) under employee benefit plans, programs or other compensatory arrangements of the Company or (y) pursuant to the employment inducement exception to the Nasdaq rules regarding shareholder approval of equity compensation plans; (iii) the issuance of shares of equity securities in connection with any “business combination” (as defined in the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC) or otherwise in connection with bona fide acquisitions of securities or assets of another Person, business unit, division or business, or to strategic counterparties in connection with partnerships, joint ventures or similar strategic transactions; (iv) the issuance of shares of any equity securities pursuant to the conversion, exercise or exchange of Warrants or relating to the Series A Preferred Stock; (v) the issuance of shares of equity securities pursuant to the terms of the New Governance Agreement; (vi) the issuance of shares of equity securities to a Governmental Authority or designee thereof (in each case, excluding a sovereign wealth fund who regularly makes financial investments) in connection with a financing transaction pursuant to a program developed to address COVID-19 (including the impacts thereof), (vii) the issuance of shares of equity securities in connection with a reclassification, recapitalization, exchange, stock split (including a reverse stock split),

combination or readjustment of shares or any stock dividend or stock distribution, or similar transaction, in each case in which holders of Common Stock participate on a pro rata basis and (viii) the issuance of any securities in connection with any transactions contemplated by the Silver Lake Agreement at the Closing and the issuance of any shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of any warrants acquired thereunder.

(b) From and after the Closing Date, until the Purchaser and its Permitted Transferees first cease to beneficially own Warrants and/or shares of Common Stock that were issued upon exercise of Warrants that represent in the aggregate and on an as exercised basis, at least 50% of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants as of the Closing Date (appropriately adjusted for any stock splits or similar events), if the Company proposes to issue shares of Common Stock (including any warrants, options or other rights to acquire, or any securities that are exercisable for, exchangeable for or convertible into, Common Stock), other than in an Excluded Issuance, then the Company shall:

(i) give written notice to the Purchaser no less than 15 Business Days prior to the closing of such issuance, setting forth in reasonable detail (to the extent then known) (A) the designation and all of the material terms and provisions of the securities proposed to be issued (the “Proposed Securities”); (B) the price and other terms of the proposed sale of such securities; and (C) the amount of such securities proposed to be issued; provided that following the delivery of such notice, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser any such information the Purchaser may reasonably request in order to evaluate the proposed issuance, except that the Company shall not be required to deliver any information that has not been or will not be provided to the proposed purchasers of the Proposed Securities; and

(ii) offer to issue and sell to the Purchaser Parties, on such terms as the Proposed Securities are issued and upon full payment by the Purchaser Parties, a portion of the Proposed Securities equal to a percentage determined by dividing (A) the number of shares of Common Stock the Purchaser Parties beneficially own (including for the avoidance of doubt, all shares of Common Stock underlying Warrants beneficially owned by the Purchaser Parties) by (B) the fully diluted total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding, and including the shares described in the immediately foregoing clause (A).

(c) The Purchaser will have the option, on behalf of the applicable Purchaser Parties, exercisable by written notice to the Company, to accept the Company’s offer and irrevocably commit to purchase any or all of the equity securities offered to be sold by the Company to the Purchaser Parties, which notice must be given within eight (8) Business Days after receipt of such notice from the Company. If the Company offers two (2) or more securities in units to the other participants in the offering, the Purchaser Parties must purchase such units as a whole and will not be given the opportunity to purchase only one (1) of the securities making up such unit. The closing of the exercise of such subscription right shall take place simultaneously with the closing of the sale of the Proposed Securities giving rise to such subscription right; provided, that the closing of any purchase by any such Purchaser Party may be extended beyond the closing of the sale of the Proposed Securities giving rise to such preemptive right to the extent necessary to obtain required approvals from any Governmental Authority or stockholder approval,

including to the extent required under the rules of The NASDAQ Global Select Market. Upon the expiration of the offering period described above, the Company will be free to sell such Proposed Securities that the Purchaser Parties have not elected to purchase during the 120 days following such expiration on terms and conditions not materially more favorable to the purchasers thereof than those offered to the Purchaser Parties in the notice delivered in accordance with Section 5.12(b). Any Proposed Securities offered or sold by the Company after such 120-day period shall be reoffered to the Purchaser Parties pursuant to this Section 5.12.

(d) The election by the Purchaser Party not to exercise its subscription rights under this Section 5.12 in any one instance shall not affect its right as to any subsequent proposed issuance.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.12 to the contrary, the Company will not be deemed to have breached this Section 5.12 if the Board determines that it is reasonably necessary for the Company to issue any Proposed Securities without previously complying with the provisions of this Section 5.12 and not later than thirty (30) Business Days following the issuance of any Proposed Securities in contravention of this Section 5.12, the Company or the transferee of such Proposed Securities offers to sell a portion of such equity securities or additional equity securities of the type(s) in question to each Purchaser Party so that, taking into account such previously-issued Proposed Securities and any such additional Proposed Securities, each Purchaser Party will have had the right to purchase or subscribe for Proposed Securities in a manner consistent with the allocation and other terms and upon same economic and other terms provided for in Sections 5.12(b) and 5.12(c).

(f) In the case of an issuance subject to this Section 5.12 for consideration in whole or in part other than cash, including securities acquired in exchange therefor (other than securities by their terms so exchangeable), the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Value thereof.

Section 5.13 Repurchase. From and after the Closing, if the Company or any of its Subsidiaries seeks to purchase or redeem, at any time, from the Silver Lake Purchasers or any of its Permitted Transferees any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Warrants or shares of Common Stock that were issued upon exercise of Warrants in a separately negotiated transaction which is not provided for by the Transaction Documents (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any repurchase or redemption of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to the exercise of optional redemption rights or redemption rights exercised following a Change of Control (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) of the Company, in each case, in accordance with the Certificate of Designations), the Purchaser Parties hereunder shall be given a reasonable advance notice and an opportunity to participate in such repurchase at the same price and on no less favorable terms and conditions, in each case as applicable to the type of security being purchased or redeemed from the Silver Lake Purchasers or any of its Permitted Transferees, and at the same time, on a pro rata basis, calculated on an as exercised basis.

Section 5.14 Financing Cooperation. If requested by Purchaser, the Company will provide the following cooperation in connection with the Purchaser obtaining any Permitted Loan: (a) subject to applicable Law, using reasonable efforts to (i) deposit such pledged Securities and/or Warrant Shares in book entry form on the books of The Depository Trust Company when eligible

to do so or (ii) without limiting the generality of sub-clause (i), if such Securities and/or Warrant Shares are eligible for resale under Rule 144A, depositing such pledged Securities in book entry form on the books of The Depository Trust Company or other depository with customary restrictive legends, (b) if so requested by such lender or counterparty, as applicable, using commercially reasonable efforts to re-register the pledged Securities and/or Warrant Shares in the name of the relevant lender, counterparty, custodian or similar party to a Permitted Loan, solely as securities intermediary and only to the extent the Purchaser or its Affiliates continues to beneficially own such pledged Securities and/or Warrant Shares, (c) negotiating in good faith to enter into an issuer agreement (an “Issuer Agreement”) with each lender in connection with such transactions in customary form for similar financings and not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Company’s obligations under the Certificate of Designations and applicable Law (which agreement may include, primarily, agreements and obligations of the Company relating to procedures and specified time periods for effecting transfers and/or conversions upon foreclosure, agreements to not hinder or delay exercises of remedies on foreclosure and certain acknowledgments regarding securities law status of the pledge arrangements, and shall in include restrictions on Transfers of the pledged Securities and/or Warrant Shares consistent with Section 5.07(c)), (d) entering into customary triparty agreements with each lender and any applicable Purchaser relating to the delivery of the Securities and/or Warrant Shares, as applicable, to the relevant lender for crediting to the relevant collateral accounts upon funding of the loan and payment of the Purchase Price in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including a right for such lender as a third party beneficiary of the Company’s obligation under Article II to issue the Securities and/or Warrant Shares, as applicable, upon payment of the Purchase Price therefor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (e) such other cooperation and assistance as the Purchaser may reasonably request that will not unreasonably disrupt the operation of the Company’s business. Anything in the preceding sentence to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company’s obligation to deliver an Issuer Agreement is conditioned on (x) the Purchaser delivering to the Company a copy of the loan agreement for the Permitted Loan to which the Issuer Agreement relates (provided, that such loan agreement may be so delivered on a redacted basis to remove sensitive and/or identifying information) and (y) the Purchaser certifying to the Company in writing that (A) the loan agreement with respect to which the Issuer Agreement is being delivered constitutes a Permitted Loan being entered into in accordance with this Agreement, the Purchaser has pledged the Securities and/or Warrant Shares, as applicable, as collateral to the lenders under such Permitted Loan and that the execution of such Permitted Loan and the terms thereof do not violate the terms of this Agreement or applicable Law, (B) to the extent applicable, whether the registration rights under the Registration Rights Agreement are being assigned to the lenders under that Permitted Loan, (C) an event of default (as defined in the Issuer Agreement) constitutes the only circumstances under which the lenders under the Permitted Loan may foreclose on the Securities and/or Warrant Shares and (D) such Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Company will be relying on such certifications when entering into the Issuer Agreement and any inaccuracy thereof will be deemed a breach of this Agreement. The Purchaser Parties acknowledge and agree that the statements and agreements of the Company in any Issuer Agreement are solely for the benefit of the applicable lenders party thereto and that in any dispute between the Company and any Purchaser Party under this Agreement the applicable Purchaser Party shall not be entitled to use the statements and agreements of the Company in an Issuer Agreement against the Company.

Section 5.15 Bank Reports. From and after the Closing, (i) upon the request of the Purchaser and (ii) for so long as the Purchaser and its Permitted Transferees continue to beneficially own at least 20% of the total shares of Series A Preferred Stock purchased by the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall provide the Purchaser with copies of all notices, reports, documents or other information (including bank books, notices of defaults, compliance certificates and financial statements) provided to the administrative agent or any lender under Section 5.01 of the Existing Credit Agreement (as amended by the Credit Agreement Amendment) as it may be amended, modified or refinanced from time to time, and including any successor or replacement primary credit facility of the Company (other than notices of borrowings, interest period elections and notices related to other loan administrative matters pursuant to Article II of the Existing Credit Agreement) (“Bank Reports”) substantially simultaneously with providing such Bank Reports to such person.

Section 5.16 Section 16b-3. The Company agrees that it will cause the Company’s Board to take any additional reasonable action as is requested by the Purchaser to cause the exemption of the Transactions from the liability provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 16b-3 so long as the Purchaser has the right to appoint a Purchaser Designee under Section 5.09 or any such Purchaser Designee serves on the Company’s Board or is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

Section 5.17 Additional Rights. If between the date hereof and the Closing the Company issued shares of Common Stock (including any warrants, options or other rights to acquire, or any securities that are exercisable for, exchangeable for or convertible into, Common Stock), other than in an Excluded Issuance, then the Company shall, as promptly as practicable after the Closing, provide the Purchaser the participation rights in Section 5.12 as if such issuance occurred after the Closing Date. If between the date hereof and the Closing any event occurred which would have resulted in an adjustment under Section 4 of the Warrants, then as promptly as practicable after the Closing, the Warrant shall be adjusted as provided in such Section 4 as if such event had occurred after the Purchaser had acquired such Warrants.

(b) Accrual of Dividends. Dividends on each share of Series A Preferred Stock (i) shall accrue on the then-applicable Liquidation Preference thereof and on any Accrued Dividends on a daily basis from and including the Issuance Date of such share, whether or not declared and whether or not the Company has assets legally available to make payment thereof, at a rate equal to the Dividend Rate as further specified below and (ii) shall be payable semi-annually in arrears, if, as and when authorized by the Board, or any duly authorized committee thereof, and declared by the Company, to the extent not prohibited by law, on each Dividend Payment Date, commencing on the first Dividend Payment Date following the Issuance Date of such share. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock shall accrue on the basis of a 365-day year based on actual days elapsed. The amount of Dividends payable with respect to any share of Series A Preferred Stock for any Dividend Payment Period shall equal the sum of the daily Dividend amounts accrued in accordance with the prior sentence of this Section 4(b) with respect to such share during such Dividend Payment Period.

(c) Arrearages; Payment of Dividends. Dividends shall be payable, (x) until the third anniversary of the Closing Date, at the Company’s option, either (i) in cash or (ii) by increasing the amount of Accrued Dividends in an amount equal to the amount of the Dividend to be paid (such increase described in this clause (ii), a “Dividend Accrual”), (y) from the third anniversary of the Closing Date until the sixth anniversary of the Closing Date, at the Company’s Option, either (i) in cash or (ii) a combination of cash and Dividend Accrual, with no more than fifty percent of the total amount of such Dividend being a Dividend Accrual and (z) thereafter, in cash. If the Company fails to declare and pay pursuant to this Section 4(c) a full Dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock on any Dividend Payment Date, then the amount of such unpaid Dividend shall automatically be added to the amount of Accrued Dividends on such share on the applicable Dividend Payment Date without any action on the part of the Company or any other Person. The Company shall be entitled to declare and pay all or any part of the Accrued Dividends relating to Dividends that were required to be paid in cash pursuant to this Section 4(c) (such Accrued Dividends, the “Accrued Cash Dividends”) on subsequent Dividend Payment Dates, and, following such cash payment, such Accrued Cash Dividends shall no longer be deemed Accrued Dividends hereunder.

(d) Record Date. The record date for payment of Dividends on any relevant Dividend Payment Date will be the close of business on the fifteenth (15th) day of the calendar month that contains the relevant Dividend Payment Date (each, a “Dividend Record Date”) whether or not such day is a Business Day.

-8-

(e) Priority of Dividends. So long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, unless (x) there are no Accrued Cash Dividends at such time (or all Accrued Cash Dividends contemporaneously are declared and a sum sufficient for the payment of those dividends has been or is set aside for the benefit of the Holders) and (y) there are no Unredeemed Shares at such time, the Company may not declare any dividend on, or make any distributions relating to, Junior Stock or Parity Stock, or redeem, purchase, acquire (either directly or through any Subsidiary) or make a liquidation payment relating to, any Junior Stock or Parity Stock, other than:

(i) purchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of Junior Stock in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement approved by the Board with or for the benefit of current or former employees, officers, directors or consultants;

(ii) as a result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of Parity Stock or Junior Stock for any other class or series of Parity Stock (in the case of Parity Stock) or Junior Stock (in the case of Parity Stock or Junior Stock);

(iii) purchases of fractional interests in shares of Parity Stock or Junior Stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such Parity Stock or Junior Stock or the security being converted or exchanged;

(iv) payment of any dividends in respect of Junior Stock where the dividend is in the form of the same stock or rights to purchase the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid;

(v) distributions of Junior Stock or rights to purchase Junior Stock; or

(vi) any dividend in connection with the implementation of a shareholder rights or similar plan, or the redemption or repurchase of any rights under such plan.

Subject to the provisions of Sections 2, 4 and 8, dividends may be authorized by the Board, or any duly authorized committee thereof, and declared and paid by the Company, or any duly authorized committee thereof, on any Junior Stock and Parity Stock from time to time and the Holders will not be entitled to participate in those dividends.

SECTION 5. Liquidation Rights.

(a) Liquidation. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, the Holders shall be entitled, out of assets legally available therefor, before any distribution or payment out of the assets of the Company may be made to or set aside for the holders of any Junior Stock, and subject to the rights of the holders of any Senior Stock or Parity Stock and the rights of the Company’s existing and future creditors, to receive in full a liquidating distribution in cash and in the amount per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to the sum of (A) the Liquidation Preference plus (B) the Accrued Dividends plus (C) accrued and unpaid dividends since the most recent Dividend Payment Date with respect to such share of Series A Preferred Stock as of the date of such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company. Holders shall not be entitled to any further payments in the event of any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company after receiving in full what is expressly provided for in this Section 5, and after such receipt, and will have no right or claim to any of the Company’s remaining assets.

-9-

(b) Partial Payment. If in connection with any distribution described in Section 5(a) above, the assets of the Company or proceeds therefrom are not sufficient to pay in full the aggregate liquidating distributions required to be paid pursuant to Section 5(a) to all Holders and the liquidating distributions payable all holders of any Parity Stock, the amounts distributed to the Holders and to the holders of all such Parity Stock shall be paid pro rata in accordance with the respective aggregate liquidating distributions to which they would otherwise be entitled if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full.

(c) Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets Not Liquidation. For purposes of this Section 5, the sale, conveyance, exchange or transfer (for cash, shares of stock, securities or other consideration) of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company shall not be deemed a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, nor shall the merger, consolidation, statutory exchange or any other business combination transaction of the Company into or with any other Person or the merger, consolidation, statutory exchange or any other business combination transaction of any other Person into or with the Company be deemed to be a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company. Upon the consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with another Person in which the Company is not the surviving entity, any Series A Preferred Stock that is outstanding at such time (including any Unredeemed Shares) shall be converted into or exchanged for preference securities of the surviving or resulting entity having substantially the same rights, powers, limitations and restrictions of the Series A Preferred Stock immediately prior to such consummation.

SECTION 6. Redemption Upon Change of Control.

(a) Change of Control Redemption. Subject to Section 6(d), upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, (i) the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to redeem any or all of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock at the then applicable Redemption Price, payable in cash and (ii) each Holder will have the right, but not the obligation, to require the Company to redeem any or all of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock owned by such Holder at the then applicable Redemption Price, payable in cash.

(b) Initial Change of Control Notice. On or before the twentieth (20th) Business Day prior to the date on which the Company anticipates consummating a Change of Control (or, if later, promptly after the Company discovers that a Change of Control may occur), a written notice (a “Change of Control Notice”) shall be sent by or on behalf of the Company to each Holder at its address as it appears in the records of the Company, which notice shall contain the date on which the Change of Control is anticipated to be effected (or, if applicable, the date on which a Schedule TO or other schedule, form or report disclosing a Change of Control was filed). The Change of Control Notice shall include (i) a description of the material terms and conditions of the Change of Control; (ii) the date on which the Change of Control is anticipated to be consummated; (iii) whether the Company is exercising its right under Section 6(a)(i) to redeem any or all of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and, if so, the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed from such Holder, and stating the place or places at which the shares of Series A Preferred Stock called for redemption shall, upon presentation and surrender of the certificates evidencing such shares of Series A Preferred Stock, be redeemed (and other instructions a Holder must follow to receive payment), and the applicable Redemption Price therefor; and (iv) the then applicable Redemption Price; and (v) a description of the payments and other actions required to be made or taken in order to effect the Satisfaction of the Indebtedness Obligations. If, or to the extent that, the Company is not

-10-

exercising its rights pursuant to Section 6(a)(i) to redeem the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the Holder may exercise its right pursuant to Section 6(a)(ii) to require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock owned by such Holder by delivering a written notice to the Company stating that the Holder is exercising its right to require the Company to redeem its outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and including wire transfer instructions for the payment of the Redemption Price no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which the Company anticipates consummating a Change of Control (as specified in the Change of Control Notice). In the event that the Holder so exercises it rights pursuant to Section 6(a)(ii), the Company will, as promptly as practicable, deliver to such Holder at its address as it appears in the records of the Company written instructions stating the place or places at which the shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall, upon presentation and surrender of the certificates evidencing such shares of Series A Preferred Stock, be redeemed (and other instructions a Holder must follow to receive payment), and the applicable Redemption Price therefor.

(c) Delivery upon Change of Control. If either the Company or a Holder has exercised its right to redeem, or require redemption of, any outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6(a), then upon the consummation of a Change of Control, after the Satisfaction of the Indebtedness Obligations and subject to Section 6(d) below and subject to the Holder properly surrendering the certificates evidencing the applicable shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the Company (or its successor) shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder by wire transfer the applicable Redemption Price with respect to each of such Holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock so redeemed. After taking into account any shares of Series A Preferred Stock that are redeemed at the option of any Holder pursuant to Section 6(a)(ii), in case of any redemption at the option of the Company of part of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall be redeemed by the Company on a pro rata basis based on the then-outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Company shall have full power and authority to prescribe the terms and conditions upon which shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be redeemed from time to time. If fewer than all the shares represented by any certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares without charge to the Holder thereof.

(d) Cash Redemption Not Permitted. If the Company (A) shall not have sufficient funds legally available under the DGCL to redeem all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock otherwise required or sought to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 6 or (B) will be in violation of Specified Contract Terms if it redeems all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock otherwise required or sought to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 6, the Company shall not be entitled to elect to redeem any shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6(a)(i) and, with respect to any shares of Series A Preferred Stock with respect to which Holders have exercised their rights pursuant to Section 6(a)(ii), the Company shall (i) redeem, pro rata among such electing Holders, a number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock with an aggregate applicable Redemption Price equal to the lesser of (1) the amount legally available for the redemption of shares of Series A Preferred Stock under the DGCL and (2) the largest amount that can be used for such redemption not prohibited by Specified Contract Terms and (ii) redeem any shares of Series A Preferred Stock with respect to which Holders have exercised their rights pursuant to Section 6(a)(ii) not purchased because of the foregoing limitations at the applicable Redemption Price as soon as practicable after the Company is able to make such redemption out of assets legally available for the purchase of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock and without violation of Specified Contract Terms. The

-11-

inability of the Company (or its successor) to make a redemption payment for any reason shall not relieve the Company (or its successor) from its obligation to effect any required purchase when, as and if permitted by applicable law and the Specified Contract Terms. If the Company fails to pay the Redemption Price in full when due in accordance with this Section 6 in respect of some or all of the shares of Series A Preferred Shares with respect to which Holders have exercised their rights pursuant to Section 6(a)(ii) (any such shares being “Unredeemed Shares” until the Redemption Price in respect thereof is paid in full in accordance with this Certificate of Designations), the Company will pay Dividends on such shares not repurchased at the Dividend Rate from time to time in effect (determined on the basis that the Series A Preferred Stock not redeemed remains outstanding), accruing daily from such date until the Redemption Price, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon that have not otherwise been taken into account in the calculation of the Redemption Price, are paid in full in respect of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock. For purposes of clarity, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6, the payment of the Change of Control Redemption Price may occur only after the Satisfaction of the Indebtedness Obligations occurs.

(e) Effect of Redemption. Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date for any shares of Series A Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this Section 6, Dividends shall no longer accrue or be declared on any such shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and such shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall cease to be outstanding.

(f) Status of Redeemed Shares. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock redeemed in accordance with this Section 6, shall return to the status of and constitute authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without classification as to series until such shares are once more classified as a particular series by the Board pursuant to the provisions of the Certificate.

SECTION 7. Redemption at the Option of the Company.

(a) Optional Redemption. The Company, at its option, may redeem for cash, in whole or in part from time to time, the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock (each, an “Optional Redemption”) upon giving the notice described in Section 7(b) below, at a price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to (i) with respect to such notice being given at any time on or prior to the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the sum of (A) 105.0% of the sum of the Liquidation Preference per share of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed plus an amount equal to any Accrued Dividends with respect to such share plus (B) an amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends since the most recent Dividend Payment Date with respect to each such share of Series A Preferred Stock as of the applicable Redemption Date, (ii) with respect to such notice being given at any time after the one-year anniversary but on or prior to the two-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the sum of (A) 103.0% of the sum of the Liquidation Preference per share of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed plus any an amount equal to Accrued Dividends with respect to such share plus (B) an amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends since the most recent Dividend Payment Date with respect to each such share of Series A Preferred Stock as of the applicable Redemption Date, (iii) with respect to such notice being given at any time after the two-year anniversary but on or prior to the three-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the sum of (A) 102.0% of the sum of the Liquidation Preference per share of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed plus an amount equal to any Accrued Dividends with respect to such share plus (B) an amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends since the most recent Dividend Payment Date with respect to each such share of Series A Preferred Stock as of the applicable Redemption Date, (iv) with respect to such notice being given at any time after the three-year anniversary but on or prior to the four-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the sum of (A) 101.0% of the sum of the Liquidation

(b) Exercise of Optional Redemption. If the Company elects to effect an Optional Redemption, the Company shall send, to the holders of record of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed at their respective addresses as they shall appear on the records of the Company, a written notice (i) notifying such holders of the election of the Company to redeem such shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed from such holder, and the Redemption Date, and (ii) stating the place or places at which the shares of Series A Preferred Stock called for redemption shall, upon presentation and surrender of the certificates evidencing such shares of Series A Preferred Stock, be redeemed (and other instructions a Holder must follow to receive payment), and the Redemption Price therefor (such notice, a “Notice of Optional Redemption”). The Redemption Date selected by the Company shall be no less than ten (10) Business Days and no more than thirty (30) Business Days after the date on which the Company provides the Notice of Optional Redemption to the Holders. The Notice of Optional Redemption shall state the Redemption Date selected by the Company.

(c) Partial Redemption. In case of any redemption of part of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, the shares to be redeemed shall be redeemed by the Company on a pro rata basis based on the then-outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Company shall have full power and authority to prescribe the terms and conditions upon which shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be redeemed from time to time. If fewer than all the shares represented by any certificate are redeemed, new certificates shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares without charge to the Holder thereof.

(d) Effect of Redemption. Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date for any shares of Series A Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this Section 7, Dividends shall no longer accrue or be declared on any such shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and such shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall cease to be outstanding.

(e) Status of Redeemed Shares. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock redeemed in accordance with this Section 7, shall return to the status of and constitute authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without classification as to series until such shares are once more classified as a particular series by the Board pursuant to the provisions of the Certificate.

SECTION 8. Approval Rights.

(a) Series A Approval Rights. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Series A Preferred Stock shall be non-voting. The vote or consent of the Holders of at least a two-thirds of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding at such time, voting together as a separate class, given in person or by proxy, either in writing without a meeting or by vote at any

-13-

meeting called for the purpose, will be necessary for effecting or validating any of the following actions, whether or not such approval is required pursuant to the DGCL:

(i) any amendment, alteration or repeal of any provision of the Certificate (including this Certificate of Designations) or Bylaws, whether by merger or otherwise, in a manner that would have an adverse effect on the rights, preferences or privileges of the Series A Preferred Stock;

(ii) any issuance of additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock (other than as permitted under the Investment Agreements or by this Certificate of Designations, including Section 4), any Parity Stock, any Senior Stock or any securities or rights convertible or exchangeable into, or exercisable for the foregoing, in each case other than (x) any Government Financing the incurrence of which does not reduce the amount of Indebtedness the Company can incur pursuant to clause (iv) of the definition of Excluded Indebtedness to zero or (y) any Mandatory Government Financing; provided that the aggregate liquidation preference or par amount of any outstanding Mandatory Government Financing issued pursuant to this clause (y) shall, solely to the extent it was not also issued pursuant to clause (x), be treated as a Specified Incurrence and as indebtedness for the purposes of calculating the Leverage Ratio used in determining the Dividend Rate;

(iii) any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company; or

(iv) agree or commit to do or take any action described in this Section 8(a).

(b) Class Voting. Each Holder of Series A Preferred Stock will have one vote per share on any matter on which Holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to vote and shall vote separately as a class, whether at a meeting or by written consent. The Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall not otherwise have any voting rights with respect to such shares.

(c) Written Consents. The Holders of Series A Preferred Stock may take action or consent to any action with respect to such rights without a meeting by delivering a consent in writing or by electronic transmission of the Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock entitled to cast not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize, take or consent to such action at a meeting of such stockholders.

SECTION 10. Replacement Certificates. If physical certificates evidencing the Series A Preferred Stock are issued, the Company shall replace any mutilated certificate at the Holder’s expense upon surrender of that certificate to the Transfer Agent.

SECTION 11. Taxes.

(a) Withholding. The Company and its paying agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold taxes on all payments and distributions (or deemed distributions) on the Series A Preferred Stock to the extent required by applicable law. To the extent that any amounts are so deducted or withheld, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Certificate of Designations as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. In the event the Company previously remitted any amounts to a governmental authority on account of taxes required to be deducted or withheld in respect of any payment or distribution (or deemed distribution) with respect to a share of Series A Preferred Stock (or in respect of any payment or distribution (or deemed distribution) with respect to a Warrant held by the Holder of such Series A Preferred Stock or upon the exercise thereof), the Company shall be entitled (i) to offset any such amounts against any amounts otherwise payable in respect of such share of Series A Preferred Stock or (ii) to require the Person in respect of whom such deduction or withholding was made to reimburse the Company for such amounts (and such Person shall promptly so reimburse the Company upon demand).

(b) Transfer Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all documentary, stamp and similar issue or transfer tax (“Transfer Tax”) due on the issue of shares of Series A Preferred Stock or certificates representing such shares or securities. However, the Company shall not be required to pay any Transfer Tax that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery (or any transfer involved in the issue or delivery) of Series A Preferred Stock to a beneficial owner other than the beneficial owner of the Series A Preferred Stock immediately prior to the event pursuant to which such issue or delivery is required, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issue or delivery has paid to the Company the amount of any such Transfer Tax or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such Transfer Tax has been paid or is not payable.

SECTION 12. Notices. All notices referred to herein shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, all notices hereunder shall be deemed to have been given upon the earlier of receipt thereof or three (3) Business Days after the mailing thereof if sent by registered or certified mail (unless first class mail shall be specifically permitted for such notice under the terms of this Certificate of Designations) with postage prepaid, addressed: (i) if to the Company, to its office at Expedia Group, Inc., 1111 Expedia Group Way West, Seattle, Washington 98119 (Attention: Chief Legal Officer), (ii) if to any Holder, to such Holder at the address and electronic mail address of such Holder as listed in the stock record books of the Company (which, for all purposes hereunder, may include the records of the Transfer Agent) or (iii) to such other address as the Company or any such Holder, as the case may be, shall have designated by notice similarly given.

SECTION 13. Facts Ascertainable. When the terms of this Certificate of Designations refer to a specific agreement or other document to determine the meaning or operation of a provision hereof, the Secretary of the Company shall maintain a copy of such agreement or

-15-

document at the principal executive offices of the Company and a copy thereof shall be provided free of charge to any Holder who makes a request therefor. The Secretary of the Company shall also maintain a written record of the Issuance Date, the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued to a Holder and the date of each such issuance, the Liquidation Preference and Accrued Dividends per share of Series A Preferred Stock and the Dividend Rate in effect from time to time and shall furnish such written record free of charge to any Holder who makes a request therefor.

SECTION 14. Waiver. Notwithstanding any provision in this Certificate of Designations to the contrary, any provision contained herein and any right of the Holders of Series A Preferred Stock granted hereunder may be waived as to all shares of Series A Preferred Stock (and the Holders thereof) upon the written consent of the Holders of a two-thirds of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding; provided that any amendment, modification or waiver that, by its terms, would adversely and uniquely affect a Holder relative to other Holders without similarly affecting all of Holders shall require the prior written consent of such adversely and uniquely affected Holder.

SECTION 15. Severability. If any term of the Series A Preferred Stock set forth herein is invalid, unlawful or incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule of law or public policy, all other terms set forth herein which can be given effect without the invalid, unlawful or unenforceable term will, nevertheless, remain in full force and effect, and no term herein set forth will be deemed dependent upon any other such term unless so expressed herein.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Warrant, if the Warrant is exercised, in whole or in part, in connection with the exercise of the Holder’s registration rights in accordance with (i) Section 1.7 of the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined in the Investment Agreement), then this Warrant shall not be deemed to have been exercised to the extent that the applicable Warrant Shares are not sold in the applicable offering as a result of the Company’s determination not to proceed with such offering, or (ii) otherwise pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, then this Warrant shall not be deemed to have been exercised to the extent that the applicable Warrant Shares are not sold in the applicable offering due to the Company’s breach of its obligations thereunder or exercise of its rights pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Registration Rights Agreement.

(b) No Cash Exercise. The Holder may only exercise this Warrant pursuant to Section 2(c). The Company and the Holder agree, (i) in the event of a net issue exercise under Section 2(c), the Holder’s surrender of this Warrant in exchange for the receipt of the Warrant Shares issuable in accordance with this Warrant (or the portion thereof being cancelled) is intended to be treated as a recapitalization under Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and (ii) not to file any tax return inconsistent with the foregoing unless otherwise required by a change in law or by the Internal Revenue Service or other governmental authority following an audit or examination.

(c) Net Issue Exercise. The Holder may exercise this Warrant by electing on one or more occasions, at any time prior to the expiration of the Term, to receive Warrant Shares issuable in accordance with this Warrant (or the portion thereof being cancelled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with notice of such election, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of Warrant Shares computed using the following formula:


X =		Y(A-B)

		A

Where:

X = the number of the Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.

Y = the number of the Warrant Shares with respect to which the Warrant is exercised.

A = the fair market value of one share of Common Stock on the date of determination.

B = the Warrant Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).

For purposes of this Section 2(c), the fair market value of one share of Common Stock on the date of determination shall mean:

(i) if the Common Stock is publicly traded, the per share fair market value of the Common Stock shall be the closing price of the Common Stock as quoted on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, or the principal exchange or market on which the Common Stock is listed, on the last trading day ending prior to the date of determination; and

(ii) if the Common Stock is not so publicly traded, the per share fair market value of the Common Stock shall be such fair market value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company in reliance on an opinion of a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm retained by the Company for this purpose; provided that Holder shall have a right to receive from the Board of Directors the calculations performed to arrive at such fair market value and a certified resolution of the fair market value from the Board of Directors of the Company.

The date of determination for purposes of this Section 2(c) shall be the date the notice of exercise is delivered by the Holder to the Company.

(d) Issuance of Warrant Shares and New Warrant. In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (i) the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered by the Company within (x) one (1) Business Day after such exercise and delivery of this Warrant and the exercise form, if the Holder provides the Company with at least one (1) Business Day prior written notice or (y) two (2) Business Days after such exercise and delivery of this Warrant and the exercise form, if the Holder did not provide the Company with notice in advance of such exercise, via (a) book-entry transfer crediting the account of the Holder through the Company’s transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock (which as at the issuance of this Warrant is Computershare Trust Company, N.A.) or (b) if requested by the Holder, in the form of certificates in the name of the Holder, and (ii) unless this Warrant has expired, a new Warrant representing the number of Warrant Shares, if any, with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised shall also be issued to the Holder within such time.

(e) Transferability of Warrant. Except as expressly permitted by the Investment Agreement, the Holder may not Transfer this Warrant or the Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof without the prior written approval of the Company, which shall be in the sole and absolute discretion of the Company. Except as expressly permitted by the Investment Agreement, any attempt to Transfer by the Holder without such prior written approval of the Company shall be void ab initio.

(f) Compliance with Securities Laws.

(i) The Holder, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Holder’s own account, and not as a nominee for any other party, and for investment, and that the Holder

will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise hereof except pursuant to an effective registration statement, or an exemption from registration, under the Act and any applicable state securities laws.

(ii) Except as provided in paragraph (iii) below, this Warrant and all Warrant Shares issued upon exercise hereof shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form (which, in the case of Warrant Shares, shall be in the form of an appropriate book entry notation):

(iii) Subject to Section 2(e), upon request of the Holder and, if requested by the Company, receipt by the Company of an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that such legend is no longer required under the Act and applicable state securities laws, the Company shall promptly cause the first paragraph of the legend to be removed from any certificate or other instrument for this Warrant or Warrant Shares to be Transferred in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and the Investment Agreement and the second paragraph of the legend shall be removed by the Company upon the expiration of such Transfer and other restrictions set forth in the Investment Agreement.

(g) No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional Warrant Shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional Warrant Share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall make a cash payment equal to the fair market value of one Warrant Share on the last trading day ending prior to the payment date multiplied by such fraction.

(h) Replacement of Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and amount.

(i) No Rights of Stockholders. The Holder shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of Common Stock or any other securities of the

Company that may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value, or change of stock to no par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise.

3. Certain Representations and Agreements. The Company represents, covenants and agrees:

(a) This Warrant is, and any Warrant issued in substitution for or replacement of this Warrant shall be, upon issuance, duly authorized and validly issued.

(b) All Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof shall be, upon issuance, and the Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that such Warrant Shares are, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, issued without violation of any preemptive or similar rights of any stockholder of the Company, and free from all taxes, liens and charges. The Company further covenants and agrees that during the period within which this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved (as unissued or held in treasury) a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise in full of this Warrant. The Company will procure, subject to issuance or notice of issuance, the listing of any Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant on the principal stock exchange on which shares of Common Stock are then listed or traded.

(c) Subject to Section 5.01 of the Investment Agreement, the Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to ensure that all Warrant Shares are issued without violation by the Company of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any securities exchange upon which shares of the Company’s capital stock may be listed at the time of such exercise.

(d) The Company shall not amend or modify any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or the by-laws of the Company in any manner that would materially and adversely affect the powers, preferences or relative participating, optional or other special rights of the Common Stock in a manner which would disproportionately and adversely affect the rights of the Holder.

4. Adjustments and Other Rights. The Warrant Exercise Price and Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows; provided, that no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 4 so as to result in duplication.

(a) Stock Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications or Combinations. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time (i) declare, order, pay or make a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) split, subdivide or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or (iii)

combine or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares (for the avoidance of doubt, in each case excluding any conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Common Stock or any transaction pursuant to Section 3.01 of the New Governance Agreement), the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such split, subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Holder immediately after such record date or effective date, as the case may be, shall be entitled to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock which such Holder would have owned or been entitled to receive in respect of the shares of Common Stock subject to this Warrant after such date had this Warrant been exercised in full immediately prior to such record date or effective date, as the case may be. In the event of such adjustment, the Warrant Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such split, subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be immediately adjusted to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant in full before the adjustment determined pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and (2) the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record or effective date, as the case may be, for the dividend, distribution, split, subdivision, combination or reclassification giving rise to such adjustment by (y) the new number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant in full determined pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(b) Distributions.

(i) If the Company shall fix a record date for the making of a dividend or other distribution (by spin-off or otherwise) on shares of Common Stock other than in cash, whether in other securities of the Company (including rights), evidences of indebtedness of the Company or any other Person or any other property (including securities or evidences of indebtedness of a subsidiary), or any combination thereof, excluding (i) dividends or distributions subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4(a) or (ii) dividends or distributions of rights in connection with the adoption of a stockholder rights plan in customary form (including with respect to the receipt of such rights in respect of shares of Common Stock (including Warrant Shares) issued subsequent to the initial dividend or distribution of such rights), then in each such case, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in full shall be increased by multiplying such number of Warrant Shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Market Price per share of Common Stock on such record date and the denominator of which is the Market Price per share of Common Stock on such record date less the Distribution Fair Market Value of the securities and/or any other property, as applicable, to be so paid or distributed in such dividend or distribution in respect of one share of Common Stock (in each case as of the record date of such dividend or distribution); such adjustment shall be effective as of the record date for such dividend or distribution. In the event of such adjustment, the Warrant Exercise Price shall immediately be decreased by multiplying such Warrant Exercise Price by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant in full immediately prior to such adjustment, and the denominator of which is the new number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Distribution Fair Market Value of the securities and/or any other property, as applicable, to be so paid or distributed in such dividend or distribution in respect of one share of

Common Stock (in each case as of the record date of such dividend or distribution) is equal to or greater than the Market Price per share of Common Stock on such record date, then proper provision shall be made such that upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall receive, in addition to the applicable Warrant Shares, the amount and kind of such securities and/or any other property such Holder would have received had such Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such record date.

(ii) If the Company shall fix a record date for the making of a cash dividend on shares of Common Stock, the Warrant Exercise Price in effect prior thereto shall be reduced immediately thereafter by the per share amount of such cash dividend.

(iii) For purposes of the foregoing subsections (i) and (ii), in the event that such dividend or distribution in question is ultimately not so made, the Warrant Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant then in effect shall be readjusted, effective as of the date when the Board of Directors of the Company determines not to make such dividend or distribution, to the Warrant Exercise Price that would then be in effect and the number of Warrant Shares that would then be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant if such record date had not been fixed.

(c) Business Combinations. In case of any Business Combination or reclassification of Common Stock (other than a reclassification of Common Stock subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4(a)), notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) the Company shall notify the Holder in writing of such Business Combination or reclassification as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days prior to the effectiveness thereof), and (ii) the Holder’s right to receive Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall be converted, effective upon the occurrence of such Business Combination or reclassification, into the right to exercise this Warrant to acquire the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) that the Common Stock issuable (at the time of such Business Combination or reclassification) upon exercise of this Warrant in full immediately prior to such Business Combination or reclassification would have been entitled to receive upon consummation of such Business Combination or reclassification; and in any such case, if applicable, the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder shall be appropriately adjusted so as to be applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, to the Holder’s right to exercise this Warrant in exchange for any shares of stock or other securities or property pursuant to this paragraph. In determining the kind and amount of stock, securities or the property receivable upon exercise of this Warrant upon and following adjustment pursuant to this paragraph, if the holders of Common Stock have the right to elect the kind or amount of consideration receivable upon consummation of such Business Combination, then the Holder shall have the right to make the same election upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to the number of shares of stock or other securities or property which the Holder will receive upon exercise of this Warrant.

(d) Certain Repurchases of Common Stock. In case the Company effects a Pro Rata Repurchase of Common Stock, then the Warrant Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price determined by multiplying the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date of such Pro Rata Repurchase by a fraction of which the numerator shall be (i) the product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Pro

Rata Repurchase and (y) the Market Price of a share of Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the first public announcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase, minus (ii) the aggregate purchase price of the Pro Rata Repurchase, and of which the denominator shall be the product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Pro Rata Repurchase minus the number of shares of Common Stock so repurchased and (y) the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the first public announcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase. In such event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant in full shall be increased to the number obtained by dividing (i) the product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment, and (y) the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Pro Rata Repurchase giving rise to this adjustment by (ii) the new Warrant Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

(e) Rounding of Calculations; Minimum Adjustments. All calculations under this Section 4 shall be made to the nearest one-hundredth (1/100th) of a cent or to the nearest one-tenth (1/10th) of a share, as the case may be. No adjustment in the Warrant Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable shall be made if the amount of such adjustment would be less than $0.01 or one-tenth (1/10th) of a share of Common Stock, but any such amount shall be carried forward and an adjustment with respect thereto shall be made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate $0.01 or 1/10th of a share of Common Stock, or more.

(f) Timing of Issuance of Additional Securities Upon Certain Adjustments. In any case in which (1) the provisions of this Section 4 shall require that an adjustment (the “Subject Adjustment”) shall become effective immediately after a record date (the “Subject Record Date”) for an event and (2) the Holder exercises this Warrant after the Subject Record Date and before the consummation of such event, the Company may defer until the consummation of such event (or if later, the calculation of the Distribution Fair Market Value, if applicable) (i) issuing to such Holder the incrementally additional shares of Common Stock or other property issuable upon such exercise by reason of the Subject Adjustment and (ii) paying to such Holder any amount of cash in lieu of a fractional share of Common Stock; provided, that the Company upon request shall promptly deliver to such Holder a due xxxx or other appropriate instrument evidencing such Holder’s right to receive such additional shares (or other property, as applicable), and such cash, upon (and subject to) the consummation of such event (or completion of such calculation).

(g) Statement Regarding Adjustments. Whenever the Warrant Exercise Price or the Warrant Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted as provided in this Section 4, the Company shall as promptly as practicable prepare and make available to the Holder a statement showing in reasonable detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Warrant Exercise Price that shall be in effect and the Warrant Shares into which this Warrant shall be exercisable after such adjustment.

(h) Adjustment Rules. Any adjustments pursuant to this Section 4 shall be made successively whenever an event referred to herein shall occur. If an adjustment in Warrant Exercise Price made hereunder would reduce the Warrant Exercise Price to an amount below par value of the Common Stock, then such adjustment in Warrant Exercise Price made hereunder shall reduce the Warrant Exercise Price to the par value of the Common Stock.

(i) Proceedings Prior to any Action Requiring Adjustment. As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4, the Company shall take such actions as are necessary, which may include obtaining regulatory, stock exchange or stockholder approvals or exemptions, in order that the Company may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable all shares of Common Stock that the Holder is entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 4.

5. Taxes.

(a) Withholding. The Company and its paying agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold taxes on all payments and distributions (or deemed distributions) with respect to the Warrants (or upon the exercise thereof) to the extent required by applicable Law. To the extent that any amounts are so deducted or withheld, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Warrant as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. In the event the Company previously remitted any amounts to a governmental authority on account of taxes required to be deducted or withheld in respect of any payment or distribution (or deemed distribution) with respect to a Warrant or upon the exercise thereof (or in respect of any payment or distribution (or deemed distribution) with respect to any share of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, held by the Holder of such Warrant), the Company shall be entitled (i) to offset any such amounts against any amounts otherwise payable in respect of such Warrant, any Warrant Shares otherwise required to be issued upon the exercise of such Warrant or any amounts otherwise payable in respect of Warrant Shares received upon the exercise of such Warrant, or (ii) to require the Person in respect of whom such deduction or withholding was made to reimburse the Company for such amounts (and such Person shall promptly so reimburse the Company upon demand).

(b) Transfer Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all documentary, stamp and similar issue or transfer tax due on (x) the issue of Warrants and (y) the issue of Warrant Shares pursuant to the exercise of a Warrant. However, in the case of the exercise of a Warrant, the Company shall not be required to pay any Transfer Tax that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery (or any transfer involved in the issue or delivery) of Warrant Shares to a beneficial owner other than the beneficial owner of the Warrant immediately prior to such exercise, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issue or delivery has paid to the Company the amount of any such Transfer Tax or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such Transfer Tax has been paid or is not payable.

6. Frustration of Purpose. The Company shall not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but shall at all times in good faith cooperate in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

Resale Shelf Registration

Section 1.1 Resale Shelf Registration Statement. Subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare, file and cause to be declared effective, no later than on the first Business Day following the one year anniversary of the date of this Agreement, a registration statement covering the sale or distribution from time to time by the Holders, on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act, of all of the Registrable Securities on Form S-3 (except if the Company is not eligible as of such one year anniversary of the date of this Agreement to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, then the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare, file and cause to be declared effective, no later than on the first Business Day

following the one year anniversary of the date of this Agreement, a registration statement on another appropriate form which shall provide for the registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by the Holders in accordance with any reasonable method of distribution elected by the Holders) (any such registration statement, the “Resale Shelf Registration Statement”), (it being agreed that the Resale Shelf Registration Statement shall be an automatic shelf registration statement that may become effective upon filing with the SEC pursuant to Rule 462(e) if Rule 462(e) is then available to the Company).

Section 1.2 Effectiveness Period. Once declared effective, the Company shall, subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be continuously effective and usable until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities (the “Effectiveness Period”).

Section 1.3 Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement. If any Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time during the Effectiveness Period, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly cause such Shelf Registration Statement to again become effective under the Securities Act (including obtaining the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly amend such Shelf Registration Statement in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement or file an additional registration statement (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement”) for an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act registering the resale from time to time by the Holders thereof of all securities that are Registrable Securities as of the time of such filing. If a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (a) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act promptly after the filing thereof (it being agreed that the Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be an automatic shelf registration statement that shall become effective upon filing with the SEC pursuant to Rule 462(e) if Rule 462(e) is then available to the Company) and (b) keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and usable until the end of the Effectiveness Period. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be a registration statement on Form S-3 to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on another appropriate form and shall provide for the registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by the Holders in accordance with any reasonable method of distribution elected by the Holders.

Section 1.4 Supplements and Amendments. The Company shall supplement and amend any Shelf Registration Statement if required by the Securities Act or the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Shelf Registration Statement.

-2-

Section 1.5 Subsequent Holder Notice. If a Person entitled to the benefits of this Agreement becomes a Holder of Registrable Securities after a Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act, the Company shall, promptly, following delivery of written notice to the Company of such Person becoming a Holder and requesting for its name to be included as a selling securityholder in the prospectus related to the Shelf Registration Statement (a “Subsequent Holder Notice”):

(a) if required and permitted by applicable law, file with the SEC a supplement to the related prospectus or a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement so that such Holder is named as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus in such a manner as to permit such Holder to deliver a prospectus to purchasers of the Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to file more than one post-effective amendment or supplement to the related prospectus for such purpose with respect to the Apollo Purchaser or its Permitted Transferees (collectively, the “Apollo Group”) or more than one post-effective amendment or supplement to the related prospectus for such purpose with respect to the SLP Purchasers or their Permitted Transferees (the “SLP Group”), in each case within any fiscal quarter.

(b) if, pursuant to Section 1.5(a), the Company shall have filed a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement that is not automatically effective, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such post-effective amendment to become promptly effective under the Securities Act; and

(c) promptly notify such Holder after the effectiveness under the Securities Act of any post-effective amendment filed pursuant to Section 1.5(a).

Section 1.6 Shelf Take-Downs.

(a) Subject to any applicable restrictions on transfer in the Investment Agreements or under applicable law, at any time that any Shelf Registration Statement is effective, if a Holder delivers a notice to the Company stating that it intends to effect a sale or distribution of all or part of its Registrable Securities included by it on any Shelf Registration Statement (a “Shelf Offering”) and stating the number of the Registrable Securities to be included in such Shelf Offering, then the Company shall, subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement, amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to enable such Registrable Securities to be sold and distributed pursuant to the Shelf Offering.

(b) Subject to any applicable restrictions on transfer in the Investment Agreements or under applicable law, a Holder may, after any Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective, deliver a written notice to the Company (the “Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice”) specifying that a Shelf Offering is intended to be conducted through an Underwritten Offering (such Underwritten Offering, an “Underwritten Shelf Take-Down”), which shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be included in such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down; provided, however, that the Holders of Registrable Securities may not, without the Company’s prior written consent, (i) launch an Underwritten Shelf Take-Down the anticipated gross proceeds of which shall be less than $100 million (the “Minimum Amount”) (unless all the Holders are proposing to sell all of their remaining Registrable Securities) or (ii) launch an Underwritten Shelf Take-Down within the period commencing 20 days prior to and ending two (2) days following the Company’s scheduled earnings release date for any fiscal quarter or year. To the extent an Underwritten Shelf Take-Down is a Marketed Underwritten Offering, the Company shall deliver the Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice to the other Holders of

-3-

Registrable Securities that have been included on such Shelf Registration Statement and permit such Holders to include their Registrable Securities included on the Shelf Registration Statement in such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down that is a Marketed Underwritten Offering if such Holder notifies the Holder delivering the Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice and the Company within three (3) Business Days after delivery of the Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice to such Holder.

(c) In the event of an Underwritten Shelf Take-Down, the Holder delivering the related Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice shall (in the case of a Marketed Underwritten Offering, in consultation with other Holders participating in the Underwritten Shelf Take-Down) select the managing underwriter(s) to administer the Underwritten Shelf Take-Down; provided that the choice of such managing underwriter(s) shall be subject to the consent of the Company, which is not to be unreasonably withheld. The Company and the Holders of Registrable Securities participating in an Underwritten Shelf Take-Down will enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriters selected for such offering.

(d) The Company will not include in any Underwritten Shelf Take-Down pursuant to this Section 1.6 any securities that are not Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the Holder(s) participating in such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down. In the case of an Underwritten Shelf Take-Down that is a Marketed Underwritten Offering, if the managing underwriter or underwriters advise the Company and the Holders in writing that in its or their good faith opinion the number of Registrable Securities (and, if permitted hereunder, other securities) requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number of securities which can be sold in such offering in light of market conditions or is such so as to adversely affect the success of such offering, the Company will include in such offering only such number of securities that can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, which securities will be so included in the following order of priority: (i) first, the Registrable Securities of the Holders that have requested to participate in such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down that is a Marketed Underwritten Offering, allocated pro rata among such Holders on the basis of the percentage of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holders, and (ii) second, any other securities of the Company that have been requested to be so included.

Section 1.7 Piggyback Registration.

(a) Except with respect to a Demand Registration (as defined below), the procedures for which are addressed in Article II, if the Company proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of Common Stock or securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, Common Stock, whether or not for sale for its own account (other than a registration statement (i) on Form X-0, Xxxx X-0 or any successor forms thereto or (ii) filed to effectuate an exchange offer or any employee benefit or dividend reinvestment plan), in a manner that would permit registration of the Registrable Securities for sale for cash to the public under the Securities Act, then the Company shall give prompt written notice of such filing, which notice shall be given, no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the filing date (the “Piggyback Notice”) to the Holders of Registrable Securities. The Piggyback Notice shall offer such Holders the opportunity to include (or cause to be included) in such registration statement the number of shares of Registrable Securities as each such Holder may request (each, a “Piggyback Registration Statement”). Subject to Section 1.7(b), the Company shall include in

-4-

each Piggyback Registration Statement all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein (each, a “Piggyback Request”) within five (5) Business Days after the date of the Piggyback Notice. The Company shall not be required to maintain the effectiveness of a Piggyback Registration Statement beyond the earlier of (x) 120 days after the effective date thereof and (y) consummation of the distribution by the Holders of the Registrable Securities included in such registration statement. The Company may withdraw a Piggyback Registration Statement at any time prior to any sales being made pursuant to the Piggyback Registration Statement without incurring any liability to the Holders.

(b) If any of the securities to be registered pursuant to the registration giving rise to the rights under this Section 1.7 are to be sold in an Underwritten Offering, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering to permit Holders of Registrable Securities who have timely submitted a Piggyback Request in connection with such offering to include in such offering all Registrable Securities included in each Holder’s Piggyback Request on the same terms and subject to the same conditions as any other shares of capital stock, if any, of the Company included in the Underwritten Offering. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the managing underwriter or underwriters of such offering advise the Company in writing that in its or their good faith opinion the number of securities exceeds the number of securities which can be sold in such offering in light of market conditions or is such so as to adversely affect the success of such offering, the Company will include in such Underwritten Offering only such number of securities that can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, which securities will be so included in the following order of priority: (i) first, the securities proposed to be sold by the Company for its own account and (ii) second, the Registrable Securities of the Holders and any other persons with piggyback registration rights who have the right to participate and that have requested to participate in such offering, allocated pro rata among the selling shareholders according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each selling shareholder and its Affiliates (other than the Company) or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by such selling shareholders.

ARTICLE II

Demand Registration Rights

Section 2.1 Right to Demand Registrations. Subject to any applicable restrictions on transfer in the Investment Agreements or under applicable law, a Holder may, following the one year anniversary of the date of this Agreement (but only if there is no Shelf Registration Statement then in effect covering all of the Registrable Securities held by such Holder of the class of securities sought to be registered), request, by providing written notice to the Company, that the Company effect the registration under the Securities Act of all or part of the Registrable Securities (a “Demand Registration”). Each request for a Demand Registration (a “Demand Registration Request”) shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be offered and sold pursuant to the Demand Registration and the intended method of distribution thereof, including whether it is intended to be an Underwritten Offering. Promptly after receipt of a Demand Registration Request, the Company shall, subject to Section 2.3, use commercially reasonable efforts to register all Registrable Securities that have been requested to be registered in the Demand Registration Request; provided, that the Company shall not be required to file a

-5-

registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.1 (a “Demand Registration Statement”) (i) within sixty (60) days following the effective date of any prior Demand Registration Statement for the same class of Registrable Securities or (ii) if the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be included therein does not either (a) equal or exceed the Minimum Amount (calculated on the basis of the average closing price of a share of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq Global Select Market over the five trading days preceding such Demand Registration Request in the case of a demand for the registration of offers of Common Stock) or (b) represent all of the remaining Registrable Securities. Promptly (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days) after receipt by the Company of a Demand Registration Request, the Company shall give written notice of such Demand Registration Request to all other Holders and shall include in such Demand Registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company received written requests for inclusion therein within ten (10) Business Days after the delivery of such notice to such Holder.

Section 2.2 Number of Demand Registrations. Each of the Apollo Group and the SLP Group shall be entitled to deliver up to two (2) Demand Registration Requests for the registration of offers of Common Stock held by members of the Apollo Group or the SLP Group, as applicable (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be separate from the Shelf Registration Statement, Shelf Offerings and Underwritten Shelf Take-Downs pursuant to Article I) and up to two (2) Demand Registration Requests for the registration of offers of Series A Preferred Stock held by members of the Apollo Group or the SLP Group, as applicable (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be separate from the Shelf Registration Statement, Shelf Offerings and Underwritten Shelf Take-Downs pursuant to Article I).

Section 2.3 Underwritten Offerings Pursuant to Demand Registrations. In the event of an Underwritten Offering pursuant to a Demand Registration, the Holder delivering the Demand Registration Request (in consultation with other Holders participating in such Underwritten Offering) shall select the managing underwriter(s) to administer such Underwritten Offering; provided that the choice of such managing underwriter(s) shall be subject to the consent of the Company, which is not to be unreasonably withheld. If the managing underwriter or underwriters advise the Company and the Holders in writing that in its or their good faith opinion the number of Registrable Securities (and, if permitted hereunder, other securities) requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number of securities which can be sold in such offering in light of market conditions or is such so as to adversely affect the success of such offering, the Company will include in such offering only such number of securities that can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, which securities will be so included in the following order of priority: (i) first, the Registrable Securities of the Holders that have requested to participate in such Underwritten Offering, allocated pro rata among such Holders on the basis of the percentage of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holders, and (ii) second, any other securities of the Company to be sold for its account.

Section 2.4 Withdrawal. A Holder may, by written notice to the Company, withdraw its Registrable Securities from a Demand Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of the applicable registration statement. Upon receipt of notices from all applicable Holders to such effect, the Company shall cease all efforts to seek effectiveness of the applicable registration statement with respect to any Registrable Securities.

(g) use commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify (or exempt from such registration or qualification) the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as shall be reasonably requested in writing by the Holder(s); provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business in any jurisdictions or file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdictions where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subsection;

(k) in the event that the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement are shares of Common Stock, use commercially reasonable efforts to list the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement with any securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed;

In the case of a proposed disclosure pursuant to (i) or (ii) above, such Person shall be required to give the Company written notice of the proposed disclosure prior to such disclosure (except in the case of (ii) above when a proposed disclosure was or is to be made in connection with a registration statement or prospectus under this Agreement and except in the case of clause (i) above when a proposed disclosure is in connection with a routine audit or examination by, or a blanket document request from, a regulatory or self-regulatory authority, bank examiner or auditor);

(n) cooperate with the Holder(s) and each underwriter or agent participating in the disposition of Registrable Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with FINRA, including the use of commercially reasonable efforts to obtain FINRA’s pre-clearance or pre-approval of the registration statement and applicable prospectus upon filing with the SEC;

(o) promptly notify the Holder(s) (i) when the prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed and, with respect to such registration statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective, (ii) of any request by the SEC or other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to such registration statement or related prospectus or to amend or to supplement such prospectus or for additional information, (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose, (iv) if at any time the Company has reason to believe that the representations and warranties of the Company contained in any agreement contemplated by Section 3.1(f) above

-9-

relating to any applicable offering cease to be true and correct or (v) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose;

(p) The Holders agree that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3.1(f), 3.1(o)(ii) or 3.1(o)(iii), the Holders shall discontinue disposition of any Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement or the related prospectus until receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus, which supplement or amendment shall, subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement, be prepared and furnished as soon as reasonably practicable, or until the Holders are advised in writing by the Company that the use of the applicable prospectus may be resumed, and have received copies of any amended or supplemented prospectus or any additional or supplemental filings which are incorporated, or deemed to be incorporated, by reference in such prospectus (such period during which disposition is discontinued being an “Interruption Period”) and, if requested by the Company, the Holders shall use commercially reasonable efforts to return to the Company all copies then in their possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such request. As soon as practicable after the Company has determined that the use of the applicable prospectus may be resumed, the Company will notify the Holders thereof. In the event the Company invokes an Interruption Period hereunder and in the sole discretion of the Company the need for the Company to continue the Interruption Period ceases for any reason, the Company shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, provide written notice to the Holders that such Interruption Period is no longer applicable; and

(q) shall take all other reasonable steps, at the written request of the Holders, necessary to effect the registration and offer and sale of the Registrable Securities as required hereby.

Section 3.2 Suspension. (a) The Company shall be entitled, by providing written notice to the Holders, no more than two (2) times in any twelve (12) month period for a period of time not to exceed 90 days in the aggregate, to postpone the filing or effectiveness of a registration statement to sell Registrable Securities or to require the Holders of Registrable Securities to suspend any offerings or sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration statement, if the Company delivers to the Holders a certificate signed by an executive officer certifying that such registration and offering would (i) require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or (ii) materially interfere with any bona fide material financing, acquisition, disposition or other similar transaction involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries then under consideration. Such certificate shall contain a statement of the reasons for such suspension and an approximation of the anticipated length of such suspension, in accordance with the specifications set forth in this Section 3.2. The Purchasers shall keep the information contained in such certificate confidential subject to the same terms set forth in Section 3.1(m). If the Company postpones registration of Registrable Securities in response to a Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice or a Demand Registration Request or requires the Holders to suspend any Underwritten Offering, the Purchasers shall be entitled to withdraw such Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice or a Demand Registration Request, as applicable, and if they do so, such request shall not be treated for any purpose as the delivery of an Underwritten Shelf Take-Down Notice pursuant to Section 1.6 or a Demand Registration Request pursuant to Section 2.1.

-10-

Section 3.3 Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Article I or Article II shall be borne by the Company. All Selling Expenses in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities by the Holders of the Registrable Securities shall be borne, pro rata, by such Holders included in such registration.

Section 3.4 Cooperation by Holders. The Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall, and the Purchasers shall cause such Holder or Holders to, furnish to the Company the number of shares of Common Stock (or any securities convertible, exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock within 60 days of any such filing) owned by such Holder or Holders, the number of such Registrable Securities proposed to be sold, the name and address of such Holder or Holders proposing to sell, and the distribution proposed by such Holder or Holders as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that the obligations of the Company under Article I and Article II are conditioned on the timely provisions of the foregoing information by such Holder or Holders and, without limitation of the foregoing, will be conditioned on compliance by such Holder or Holders with the following:

(a) such Holder or Holders will, and will cause their respective Affiliates to, cooperate with the Company in connection with the preparation of the applicable registration statement and prospectus and, for so long as the Company is obligated to keep such registration statement effective, such Holder or Holders will and will cause their respective Affiliates to, provide to the Company, in writing and in a timely manner, for use in such registration statement (and expressly identified in writing as such), all information regarding themselves and their respective Affiliates and such other information as may be required by applicable law to enable the Company to prepare or amend such registration statement, any related prospectus and any other documents related to such offering covering the applicable Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders and to maintain the currency and effectiveness thereof; and

(b) during such time as such Holder or Holders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a distribution of the Registrable Securities, such Holder or Holders will, and they will cause their Affiliates to, comply with all laws applicable to such distribution, including Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act, and, to the extent required by such laws, will, and will cause their Affiliates to, among other things (i) not engage in any stabilization activity in connection with the securities of the Company in contravention of such laws; (ii) distribute the Registrable Securities acquired by them solely in the manner described in the applicable registration statement and (iii) if required by applicable law, cause to be furnished to each agent or broker-dealer to or through whom such Registrable Securities may be offered, or to the offeree if an offer is made directly by such Holder or Holders or their respective Affiliates, such copies of the applicable prospectus (as amended and supplemented to such date) and documents incorporated by reference therein as may be required by such agent, broker-dealer or offeree.

Section 3.5 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of Rule 144 to the Holders, the Company agrees that, for so long as a Holder owns Registrable Securities, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times after the date of this Agreement; and

-11-

(b) so long as a Holder owns any Restricted Securities, furnish to the Holder upon request given in accordance with Section 6.8 (i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act; (ii) a copy of the most recent periodic report of the Company and any other such reports and documents filed by the Company that may be requested by the Holder; and (iii) any other such information or documentation as may be requested by a Holder pursuant to an SEC rule or regulation that permits the sale of securities without registration or pursuant to Form S-3, whichever is applicable.

Section 3.6 Holdback Agreement. If the Company shall file a registration statement (other than in connection with the registration of securities issuable pursuant to an employee stock option, stock purchase or similar plan or pursuant to a merger, exchange offer or a transaction of the type specified in Rule 145(a) under the Securities Act) with respect to an underwritten public offering of Common Stock or securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, such securities or otherwise informs the Purchasers that it intends to conduct such an offering utilizing an effective registration statement or pursuant to an underwritten Rule 144A and/or Regulation S offering and provides the Purchasers and each Holder the opportunity to participate in such offering in accordance with and to the extent required by Section 1.7, each Holder participating in such offering shall, if requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters, enter into a customary “lock-up” agreement relating to the sale, offering or distribution of Registrable Securities, in the form reasonably requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters, covering the period commencing on the date of the prospectus pursuant to which such offering may be made and continuing until up to 90 days from the date of such prospectus; provided that nothing herein will prevent (i) any Holder from making a transfer to an Affiliate, (ii) any pledge of Registrable Securities by a Holder in connection with a Permitted Loan (as defined in the Investment Agreements) or (iii) or any foreclosure in connection with a Permitted Loan (as defined in the Investment Agreements) or transfer in lieu of a foreclosure thereunder, in each case that is otherwise in compliance with applicable securities laws.

ARTICLE IV

Indemnification

Section 4.1 Indemnification by Company. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company will, with respect to any Registrable Securities covered by a registration statement or prospectus, or as to which registration, qualification or compliance under applicable “blue sky” laws has been effected pursuant to this Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, each Holder’s current and former officers, directors, partners, members, managers, shareholders, accountants, attorneys, agents, employees and Affiliates, and each Person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and such Holder’s current and former officers, directors, partners, members, managers, shareholders, accountants, attorneys, agents, employees and Affiliates, and each underwriter thereof, if any, and each Person who controls any such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all expenses, claims, losses, damages, costs (including costs of preparation, reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses and any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding), judgments, fines, penalties, charges, amounts paid in settlement and other liabilities, joint or several, (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in

-12-

respect thereof) (collectively, “Losses”) to the extent arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, offering circular, “issuer free writing prospectus” (as such term is defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act) or other document, in each case related to such registration statement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or any violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rules or regulations thereunder applicable to the Company and (without limiting the preceding portions of this Section 4.1), the Company will reimburse each of the Company Indemnified Parties for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal expenses and any other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred in connection with investigating, defending or, subject to the last sentence of this Section 4.1, settling any such Losses or action, as such expenses are incurred; provided that the Company’s indemnification obligations shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), nor shall the Company be liable to a Holder in any such case for any such Losses or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a violation or alleged violation of any state or federal law (including any claim arising out of or based on any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission in the registration statement or prospectus) which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information regarding such Holder furnished to the Company by such Holder or its authorized representatives expressly for use in connection with such registration by or on behalf of any Holder; it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Holder consists of the information described as such in Section 4.2 below.

Section 4.2 Indemnification by Holders. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which registration or qualification or compliance under applicable “blue sky” laws is being effected, indemnify, severally and not jointly with any other Holders of Registrable Securities, the Company, each of its representatives, each Person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act (collectively, the “Holder Indemnified Parties”), against all Losses (or actions in respect thereof) to the extent arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, offering circular, “issuer free writing prospectus” or other document, in each case related to such registration statement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse each of the Holder Indemnified Parties for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal expenses and any other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred in connection with investigating, defending or, subject to the last sentence of this Section 4.2, settling any such Losses or action, as such expenses are incurred, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular, “issuer free writing prospectus” or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information regarding such Holder furnished to the Company by such Holder or its authorized representatives and stated to be

-13-

specifically for use therein; it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Holder consists of the number of shares of Common Stock (or any securities convertible, exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock within 60 days of any such filing) owned by such Holder, the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by such Holder, the name and address of such Holder proposing to sell, and the distribution proposed by such Holder; provided, however, that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 4.2 payable by the Purchasers and any Holder exceed an amount equal to the net proceeds received by such Holder in respect of the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. The indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the applicable Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

Section 4.3 Notification. If any Person shall be entitled to indemnification under this Article IV (each, an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall give prompt notice to the party required to provide indemnification (each, an “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim or of the commencement of any proceeding as to which indemnity is sought. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, exercisable by promptly giving written notice to the Indemnified Party after the receipt of written notice from such Indemnified Party of such claim or proceeding, to assume, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, the defense of any such claim or litigation, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party will not (so long as it shall continue to have the right to defend, contest, litigate and settle the matter in question in accordance with this paragraph) be liable to such Indemnified Party hereunder for any legal expenses and other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such claim or litigation, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the use of counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party to represent the Indemnified Party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) such action includes both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other Indemnified Parties that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed within a reasonable period of time to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and assume such defense and the Indemnified Party is or would reasonably be expected to be materially prejudiced by such delay or (iv) the Indemnifying Party agrees to pay such fees and expenses. The failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall relieve an Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article IV only to the extent that the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial or harmful to such Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such action. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the prior written consent of each Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which (A) 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 and (B) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party. The indemnity agreements contained in this Article IV shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any claim, loss, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent

-14-

shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The indemnification set forth in this Article IV shall be in addition to any other indemnification rights or agreements that an Indemnified Party may have. An Indemnifying Party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to appropriate local counsel) for all parties indemnified by such Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any Indemnified Party a conflict of interest may exist between such Indemnified Party and any other Indemnified Parties with respect to such claim.

Section 4.4 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Article IV is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party, other than pursuant to its terms, with respect to any Losses or action referred to therein, then, subject to the limitations contained in this Article IV, the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses or action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other, in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses or action, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made (or omitted) by, or relates to information supplied by such Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, or such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent any such action, statement or omission. The Company and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4 was determined solely upon pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 4.4. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.4, an Indemnifying Party that is a Holder shall not be required to contribute to any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds to the Indemnifying Party from the sale of the Registrable Securities sold in a transaction that resulted in Losses in respect of which contribution is sought in such proceeding pursuant to this Section 4.4 exceed the amount of any damages such Indemnifying Party has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission (including as a result of any indemnification obligation hereunder). No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

ARTICLE V

Transfer and Termination of Registration Rights

Section 5.1 Transfer of Registration Rights. Any rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to a Holder under this Agreement may be transferred or assigned to any Investor in connection with (a) a Transfer (as defined in the Investment Agreements) of Series A Preferred Stock, Warrants or Common Stock, as applicable, to such Person in a Transfer pursuant to Section 5.07(b)(i) or by Section 5.07(b)(vi) of the Investment Agreements or (b) a pledge by such Holder of its rights and an assignment by such Holder of its rights in connection

-15-

with a foreclosure under a pledge of Registrable Securities, in each case, pursuant to a Permitted Loan (as defined in the Investment Agreements); provided, however, in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b), that (i) prior written notice of such assignment of rights is given to the Company and (ii) such Investor agrees in writing to be bound by, and subject to, this Agreement as a “Holder” pursuant to a written instrument in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company.

Section 5.2 Termination of Registration Rights. The rights of any particular Holder to cause the Company to register securities under Article I or Article II shall terminate with respect to such Holder upon the date upon which such Holder no longer holds any Registrable Securities.

ARTICLE VI

Miscellaneous

Section 6.2 Extension of Time, Waiver, Etc. The parties hereto may, subject to applicable law, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or acts of the other party or (b) waive compliance by the other party with any of the agreements contained herein applicable to such party or, except as otherwise provided herein, waive any of such party’s conditions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by the parties hereto in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party; provided that the Purchasers may execute such waivers on behalf of any Investor.

Section 6.3 Assignment. Except as provided in Section 5.1, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other party hereto; provided, however, that the Purchasers may provide any such consent on behalf of the Investors.

Section 6.4 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including by facsimile or electronic mail), each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties hereto.

Section 6.5 Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiary. This Agreement, including the Transaction Documents (as defined in the Investment Agreements), constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties and their Affiliates, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. No provision of this Agreement shall confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their permitted assigns any rights or remedies hereunder.

-16-

Section 6.6 Governing Law; Jurisdiction.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed entirely within that State, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under any applicable conflict of laws principles.

(b) All legal or administrative proceedings, suits, investigations, arbitrations or actions (“Actions”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be shall be heard and determined in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over any Action, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware) and the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts in any such Action and irrevocably waive the defense of an inconvenient forum or lack of jurisdiction to the maintenance of any such Action. The consents to jurisdiction and venue set forth in this Section 6.6 shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of Delaware and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this paragraph and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the parties hereto. Each party hereto agrees that service of process upon such party in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be effective if notice is given by overnight courier at the address set forth in Section 6.8 of this Agreement. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable law; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, a final trial court judgment.
