REGISTRATION RIGHTS
2.1 Shelf Registration Statement. As promptly as practicable after the date hereof, but in any event no later than the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a “shelf” registration statement on Form S-1 (or Form S-3 if the Company is eligible to use Form S-3 at such time) with respect to the offer and resale of all Registrable Shares in accordance with Rule 415, except to the extent the Company has an existing shelf registration statement covering the Common Stock which may be used for the purposes contemplated herein (such new or existing registration statement together with any additional registration statements filed to register any Registrable Shares, the “Shelf Registration Statement”). Upon becoming eligible to use Form S-3, the Company shall promptly file a Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3, which may be in the form of a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-1, covering all of the then Registrable Shares and will maintain the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or such comparable or successor form) then in effect until such time as there are no Registrable Shares. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cause the Shelf Registration Statement, when filed, to comply in all material respects with all legal requirements applicable thereto, (ii) respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to, and resolve all comments received from, the SEC or its staff concerning the Shelf Registration Statement, (iii) have the Shelf Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing and (iv) maintain the effectiveness of (and availability for use of) the Shelf Registration Statement (including by filing any post-effective amendments thereto or prospectus supplements in respect thereof) until such time as there are no Registrable Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.1, if the SEC prevents the Company from including on a registration statement any or all of the Registrable Shares to be registered pursuant to this Section 2.1 due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of Registrable Shares by the Investor, such registration statement shall register the resale of a number of Registrable Shares which is equal to the maximum number of shares as is permitted by the SEC, and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to register all such remaining Registrable Shares for resale as promptly as reasonably practicable in accordance with the applicable rules, regulations and guidance of the SEC.
2.2 Blackout Periods. Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.1 to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to postpone and delay the filing or effectiveness (but not the preparation) of any registration statement or the offer or sale of any Registrable Shares thereunder (i) for reasonable periods of time in advance of the release of the Company’s quarterly and annual financial results and (ii) for reasonable periods of time, not in excess of an aggregate of ninety (90) calendar days in any twelve (12)-month period and in no event more than two times in any twelve (12)-month period (any such postponement and delay permitted by this Section 2.2 being, a “Blackout Period”), if (A) the Board of Directors determines in its good faith judgment that any such filing or effectiveness of a registration statement or the offering or sale of any Registrable Shares thereunder would (1) materially impede, materially delay or otherwise materially interfere with any pending or proposed material acquisition, disposition, corporate reorganization or other similar material transaction involving the Company as to which the Company has taken substantial steps and is proceeding with reasonable diligence to effect, (2) materially adversely affect any registered underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities for the Company’s account as to which the Company has taken substantial steps (including, but not limited to, selecting a managing underwriter for such offering) and is proceeding with reasonable diligence to effect such offering, or (3) require disclosure of material non-public information which, in the reasonable discretion of the Board of Directors, acting in good faith, would have a material adverse effect on the business, operations or management of the Company or any of its Affiliates if disclosed at such time or (B) the Board of Directors determines in its good faith judgment that the Company is required by law, rule or regulation to amend or supplement the affected registration statement or the related prospectus so that such registration statement or prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that the Company shall give written notice to the Investor of its determination to postpone or delay the filing of such registration statement or other imposition of a Blackout Period and a general statement of the reason for such deferral and an approximation of the anticipated delay; provided, further, that in the event that the Company proposes to register shares of Common Stock (other than in connection with a registered underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities for the Company’s account) during a Blackout Period, the Company shall not pursuant to this Section 2.2 be entitled to postpone or delay the filing or effectiveness of any registration statement or the offer or sale of any Registrable Shares during such Blackout Period. Upon notice by the Company to the Investor of any such determination, the Investor shall, except as required by applicable Law, keep the fact of any such notice strictly confidential, and during any Blackout Period (or until such Blackout Period shall be earlier terminated in writing by the Company), promptly halt any offer, sale, trading or transfer by it of any shares of Common Stock and promptly halt any use, publication, dissemination or distribution of any prospectus or prospectus supplement covering such Registrable Shares and, if so directed by the Company, shall deliver to the Company any copies then in its possession of any such prospectus or prospectus supplement. A deferral of the filing or effectiveness of a registration statement or other imposition of a Blackout Period pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be lifted as soon as practicable (and in no event later than the 90th calendar day in any 12-month period), and the Company shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) notify in writing the Investor of the termination of the Blackout Period and the absence of the circumstances giving rise to such Blackout Period.

2.3 Piggyback Registration.
(a) Whenever the Company proposes to publicly sell or register for sale any of its securities in an underwritten offering pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act (other than a registration statement on Form S-8 or on Form S-4 or any similar successor forms thereto) (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall give prompt written notice to the Investor of its intention to effect such sale or registration and, subject to Section 2.3(b) and subject to Section 5 of the Subscription Agreement, shall include in such transaction all Registrable Shares with respect to which the Company has received a written request from the Investor for inclusion therein within ten (10) Business Days after the receipt of the Company’s notice. The managing underwriter or underwriters to administer the underwritten offering pursuant to a Piggyback Registration shall be chosen by the Company in its sole discretion. The Company may postpone or withdraw the filing or the effectiveness of a Piggyback Registration at any time in its sole discretion.
- 6 -
(b) If the managing underwriter or underwriters of any proposed underwritten offering of Registrable Shares included in a Piggyback Registration informs the Company and the Investor that, in its or their opinion, the number of Registrable Shares which the Investor intends to include in such offering exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a significant adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the market for the securities offered, then the shares of Common Stock proposed to be registered by the Company shall be included therein and, if additional Registrable Shares or shares of Common Stock can be so registered, then the Registrable Shares or shares of Common Stock to be included in such underwritten offering, up to the maximum number of additional shares of Registrable Shares and Common Stock that, in the opinion of such managing underwriter or underwriters, can be sold without having such adverse effect, shall (i) first, be allocated to the Vintage Group Members until all of the shares of Common Stock, if any, that the Vintage Group Members propose to sell have been included therein, (ii) second, and only if all the shares referred to in clause (i) of this Section 2.3(b) have been included, the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold by the Investor and the Non-Vintage Investors (collectively, the “Participating Investors”), with such number to be allocated pro rata among the Participating Investors that have requested to participate in such offering based on the proportion that the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold in such offering by each Participating Investor bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold by all Participating Investors in such offering (provided, that any securities thereby allocated to a Participating Investor that exceed such Participating Investor’s request shall be reallocated among the remaining requesting Participating Investors in like manner) and (iii) third, and only if all of the shares of Common Stock referred to in clause (ii) of this Section 2.3(b) have been included in such Piggyback Registration, any other securities eligible for inclusion in such offering may be included therein.
(c) No registration of Registrable Shares effected pursuant to a request under this Section 2.3 shall relieve the Company of its obligations under Section 2.1 through Section 2.2.

(a) In the event any Registrable Shares are included in a registration statement contemplated by this Agreement, the Company shall, and it hereby agrees to, indemnify and hold harmless, or cause to be indemnified and held harmless, the Investor and its officers, directors, managers, partners, employees, agents, representatives, trustees and controlling Persons, if any, in any offering or sale of the Registrable Shares, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities in respect thereof and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) or Actions in respect thereof (collectively, “Claims”), to which each such indemnified party may become subject, insofar as such Claims (including any amounts paid in settlement effected with the consent of the Company as provided herein) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement, or any preliminary or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein, or arise out of or are based upon 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 the Company shall, and it hereby agrees to, reimburse, upon request, the Investor for any legal or other out-of-pocket fees and expenses reasonably incurred and documented by it in connection with investigating or defending any such Claims; provided, that the Company shall not be liable to the Investor (or its officers, directors, managers, partners, employees, agents, representatives, trustees and controlling Persons, if any) in any such case to the extent that any such Claims arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, or preliminary or final prospectus, or amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with the Required Investor Information furnished to the Company in writing by the Investor or on behalf of the Investor by any Representative of the Investor, expressly for use therein, that is the subject of the untrue statement or omission.

(b) In the event any Registrable Shares are included in a registration statement contemplated by this Agreement, the Investor shall, and hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, representatives and controlling Persons, if any, in any offering or sale of its Registrable Shares against any Claims to which each such indemnified party may become subject, insofar as such Claims (including any amounts paid in settlement as provided herein), or Actions in respect thereof, arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement, or any preliminary or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and the Investor shall, and it hereby agrees to reimburse the Company for any legal or other out-of-pocket fees and expenses reasonably incurred and documented by the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such Claims, in each case only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Required Investor Information furnished to the Company in writing by the Investor or its Representative expressly for use therein that is the subject of the untrue statement or omission; provided, however, that the liability of the Investor hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the dollar amount of the net proceeds actually received by the Investor from the sale of Registrable Shares sold by the Investor pursuant to such registration statement or prospectus.
(c) The Investor and the Company agree that if, for any reason, the indemnification provisions contemplated by Section 2.7(a) or Section 2.7(b) are unavailable to or are insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Claims referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Claims 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 hand, with respect to the applicable offering of securities. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or by such indemnified party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. If, however, the allocation in the first sentence of this Section 2.7(c) is not permitted by applicable Law, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative faults, but also the relative benefits of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 2.7(c) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the preceding sentences of this Section 2.7(c). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the Claims referred to above shall be deemed to include (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.8) any legal or other out-of-pocket fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such Action. 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Investor shall not be liable to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount equal to the sum of (i) the net proceeds received by the Investor from the sale of Registrable Shares sold by the Investor pursuant to such registration statement or prospectus, minus (ii) any amounts paid or payable by the Investor pursuant to Section 2.7(b) (except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by the Investor).

2.8 Indemnification Procedures.
(a) If an indemnified party shall desire to assert any claim for indemnification provided for under Section 2.7 in respect of, arising out of or involving a Claim or Action against the indemnified party, such indemnified party shall notify the Company or the Investor, as the case may be (the “Indemnifying Party”), in writing of such Claim, the amount or the estimated amount of damages sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Claim), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto (a “Claim Notice”) promptly after receipt by such indemnified party of written notice of the Claim; provided, that failure to provide a Claim Notice shall not affect the indemnification obligations provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. The indemnified party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after the indemnified party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the indemnified party relating to the Claim; provided, however, that failure to provide any such copies shall not affect the indemnification obligations provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure.
- 14 -
(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of any Claim for which indemnification is being sought and if the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall employ counsel for such defense that is reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party and shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with such defense. Should the Indemnifying Party so elect to assume the defense of a Claim, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to the indemnified party for legal expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless: (i) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Claim and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; or (iii) such indemnified party shall have been advised by counsel that an actual or potential conflict of interest exists if the same counsel were to represent such indemnified party and the Indemnifying Party or any other indemnified party (in which case, if such indemnified party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party); provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to not more than one local counsel that may be required in the opinion of such firm) at any time for all indemnified parties hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the indemnified party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense (except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence), separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend any Claim, the indemnified party shall reasonably cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnifying Party’s request) the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Claim, and the indemnified party shall use reasonable best efforts to make its employees and other representatives available on a mutually convenient basis during regular business hours to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of a Claim, the indemnified party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Indemnifying Party may pay, settle or compromise a Claim without the written consent of the indemnified party, so long as such settlement includes (A) an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liabilities and obligations in respect of such Claim, (B) does not subject the indemnified party to any injunctive relief or other equitable remedy, and (C) does not include a statement or admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
2.9 Rule 144. The Company will (i) file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder (or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, will, upon the request of the Investor, make publicly available other information), (ii) take such further action as the Investor may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Investor to sell Common Stock without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (a) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time or (b) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC, (iii) provide opinion(s) of counsel as may be reasonably necessary in order for the Investor to avail itself of any such rule or regulation to allow the Investor to sell such Common Stock without registration, and (iv) remove, or cause to be removed, the notation of any restrictive legend on the Investor’s book-entry account maintained by the Company’s transfer agent, and bear all costs associated with the removal of such legend in the Company’s books. Upon the reasonable request of the Investor, the Company will deliver to the Investor a written statement as to whether the Company has filed the reports required to be filed under the Exchange Act for a period of at least ninety (90) days prior to the date of such written statement.

2.10 Transfer of Registration Rights. The rights of the Investor under this Agreement may be assigned to any direct or indirect transferee (including any Affiliate) of the Investor permitted under this Agreement who agrees in writing to be subject to and bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing and in lieu of an assignment of rights pursuant to the foregoing sentence, if requested by the Investor in connection with any such Transfer by the Investor, the Company will enter into one or standalone registration rights agreements for the benefit of such direct or indirect transferee providing for registration rights that are substantially consistent with the rights of the Investor under this Agreement. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement or related prospectus as may be necessary in order to reflect any distribution or transfer of Registrable Shares by the Investor to any of its direct or indirect equity holders that does not involve a disposition for value upon written notice by any such direct or indirect equity holder to the Company of any such distribution or transfer, provided that any such direct or indirect equity holder provides such information to the Company as may be reasonably requested to effect such amendment or supplement of the Registration Statement or related prospectus.

No failure by any Party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition, regardless of how long such failure continues.

3.8 Delivery by Electronic Transmission. This Agreement and any signed agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Agreement or contemplated hereby, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of an electronic transmission, including by a facsimile machine, .PDF or via email, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person.

3.11 Descriptive Headings; Interpretation. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a substantive part of this Agreement. Whenever required by the context, any pronoun used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns, pronouns and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa. The use of the word “including” in this Agreement shall be by way of example rather than by limitation. Reference to any agreement, document, or instrument means such agreement, document or instrument as amended or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, and if applicable hereof, and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, no amendment or other modification to any agreement, document or instrument that requires the consent of any Person pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement will be given effect hereunder unless such Person has consented in writing to such amendment or modification. Any Law defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such Law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including by succession of comparable successor Laws. All references to any period of days shall be deemed to be to the relevant number of calendar days unless otherwise specified. When calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which, any act is to be done or step taken under this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period will be included, and if the last day of a period measured in Business Days is a non-Business Day, the period in question will end on the next succeeding Business Day. The use of the words “or,” “either” and “any” shall not be exclusive. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Wherever a conflict exists between this Agreement and any other agreement, this Agreement shall control but solely to the extent of such conflict.
