Registration and Related Rights
SECTION
2.1. Company Registration.
2.1.1. Right to Piggyback on Company Registration of
Common Stock. Subject to Section 2.1.3, if the Company proposes, on its own initiative or at the request of a party holding rights to demand registrations of the Common Stock other than under the LDC Registration Rights Agreement, the
Institutional Investor Registration Rights Agreement or this Agreement (a “Third Party”) to register any Common Stock under the 1933 Act in connection with the offering of a primary issuance or, in the case of such Third Party, a
secondary issuance, of such Common Stock on any form other than Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any form substituting therefor (except for a registration in connection with an exchange offer of securities solely to existing securityholders of the Company)
and such proposal would result in the filing of a registration statement with the Commission in connection therewith at any time, the Company shall at such time promptly give each Preferred Stock Investor, each Permitted Affiliate of the Preferred
Stock Investors and any other transferee of the foregoing then owning Registrable Securities (collectively, the “Preferred Stock Investor Holders”) written notice of such determination no later than thirty-five (35) days prior to
the proposed effectiveness date (such proposed effectiveness date to be specified by the Company in the written notice) of the registration statement to be prepared in connection with such proposed registration. Any Preferred Stock Investor Holder
wishing to register all or any portion of such Preferred Stock Investor Holder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to such proposed registration (a “Piggyback Registration”) must give written notice to the Company of its intent
to participate in such proposed registration no later than fifteen (15) days after receipt of the notice delivered by the Company. Subject to the allocations set forth in Section 2.1.3, upon receipt of such written request of any such Preferred
Stock Investor Holder, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration under the 1933 Act of all Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by the Preferred Stock Investor Holders. Any
Preferred Stock Investor Holder holding Registrable Securities that has requested to be included in such registration may elect, in writing at least five (5) Business Days prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection
with such registration, not to register such Registrable Securities in such registration.
6
2.1.2. Selection of Underwriters. If the
Company in its sole discretion decides a Piggyback Registration shall be underwritten, the Company shall have sole discretion in the selection of any underwriter or underwriters to manage such Piggyback Registration.
2.1.3. Priority on Piggyback Registrations. If the managing underwriter or underwriters of a Piggyback
Registration (or in the case of a Piggyback Registration not being underwritten, holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock proposed to be registered by (x) the Preferred Stock Investor Holders, (y) the LDC Holders pursuant to the LDC
Registration Rights Agreement and (z) the Institutional Investors pursuant to the Institutional Investor Registration Rights Agreement) advise the Company in writing that in its or their opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be
sold in such Piggyback Registration (including any shares proposed to be sold by (i) LDC Holders pursuant to the LDC Registration Rights Agreement, (ii) Institutional Investors pursuant to the Institutional Investor Registration Rights Agreement and
(iii) Preferred Stock Investor Holders pursuant to this Agreement) exceeds the number which can be sold, or would adversely affect the price at which the Common Stock could be sold in such offering, the Company will include in such Piggyback
Registration only that number of shares of Common Stock which, in the opinion of such underwriter or underwriters (or in the case of a Piggyback Registration not being underwritten, holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock proposed to be
registered by the Preferred Stock Investor Holders, the LDC Holders and the Institutional Investors, as the case may be), can be sold in such offering without so affecting such price. The shares of Common Stock to be included in such Piggyback
Registration shall be apportioned (a) first, to any shares of Common Stock that the Company proposes to sell, or in the case of a registration at the request of a Third Party (a “Third Party Registration”), to any shares of Common
Stock that the Third Party proposes to sell, (b) second, pro rata among any shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold by (x) any LDC Holder pursuant to the LDC Registration Rights Agreement and (y) any Institutional Investor
pursuant to the Institutional Investor Registration Rights Agreement, up to a maximum of 40% of the balance of the shares of Common Stock to be included in such Piggyback Registration after subtracting the shares proposed to be sold by the Company,
or the Third Party, as the case may be, (c) third, pro rata among any shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold by any Preferred Stock Investor Holder and (d) fourth, pro rata among any other shares of Common Stock
proposed to be included in such Piggyback Registration, including, in the case of a Third Party Registration, the Company, and in the case of a primary issuance by the Company, any Third Party, in each case according to the total number of shares of
Common Stock requested for inclusion by the Preferred Stock Investor Holders, the LDC Holders and the Institutional Investors, as applicable, or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to among such selling stockholders, as applicable.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, after June 30, 2004, the shares of Common Stock to be included in such Piggyback Registration shall be apportioned (I) first, to any shares of Common Stock that the Company proposes to sell, or in the case of a Third
Party Registration, to any shares of Common Stock that the Third Party proposes to sell, (II) second, pro rata among any shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold by (A) any Preferred Stock Investor Holder, (B) any LDC Holder pursuant
to the LDC Registration Rights Agreement and (C) any Institutional Investor pursuant to the Institutional Investor Registration Rights Agreement and (III) third, pro rata among any other shares of Common Stock proposed to be included
in such Piggyback Registration, including, in the case of a Third Party Registration, the Company, and in the case of a primary issuance by the Company, any Third Party, in each case according to the total number of shares of Common Stock requested
for inclusion by the
7
Preferred Stock Investor Holders, the LDC Holders and the Institutional Investors, as
applicable, or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to among such selling stockholders, as applicable.
SECTION 2.2. Demand Registration Rights.
2.2.1. Right to
Demand. If, at any time on or after June 30, 2004, or at any time in respect of shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion or redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock or the Series A Preferred Stock, any one or more of the
Preferred Stock Investor Holders holding Registrable Securities representing five percent (5%) or more in the aggregate of the then outstanding Common Stock (assuming conversion or exercise of all Common Stock Equivalents held by the Preferred Stock
Investor Holders into Registrable Securities at the then conversion price or exercise price) submits a written request (a “Request Notice”) to the Company for registration with the Commission under and in accordance with the
provisions of the 1933 Act of all or part of the Registrable Securities then owned by such Preferred Stock Investor Holder or Preferred Stock Investor Holders (a “Preferred Stock Investor Demand Registration”), the Company shall
thereupon, as expeditiously as possible, use its reasonable best efforts to file a registration statement with the Commission and have the registration statement declared effective by the Commission; provided, however, that the number
of Registrable Securities as to which such request is made shall represent not less than five percent (5%) of the then outstanding Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents. The Preferred Stock Investor Holders acknowledge that, within ten (10) days
after receipt of such Request Notice, the Company will serve written notice of such registration request to (a) all LDC Holders who hold shares of Common Stock which carry registration rights pursuant to the LDC Registration Rights Agreement (the
“LDC Notice”), (b) all Institutional Investors who hold shares of Common Stock which carry registration rights pursuant to the Institutional Investor Registration Rights Agreement (the “Institutional Investor
Notice”) and (c) all other Preferred Stock Investor Holders (the “Preferred Stock Investor Demand Notice”), and, subject to the pro rata allocations set forth in Section 2.2.4, the Company will include in such
Preferred Stock Investor Demand Registration all such shares of Common Stock held by the LDC Holders, Institutional Investors and Preferred Stock Investor Holders with respect to which the Company has received a written request for inclusion therein
within twenty (20) days after the giving of the LDC Notice, the Institutional Investor Notice and the Preferred Stock Investor Demand Notice; provided, however, that in the event of a Preferred Stock Investor Demand Registration prior
to June 30, 2004, Preferred Stock Investor Holders may only request for inclusion in such Preferred Stock Investor Demand Registration those shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock or the Series A Preferred
Stock. Any Preferred Stock Investor Demand Registration representing five percent (5%) or more in the aggregate of the then outstanding Common Stock (assuming conversion or exercise of all Common Stock Equivalents held by the Preferred Stock
Investor Holders into Registrable Securities at the then conversion price or exercise price) shall, at the Company’s option, be underwritten by one or more underwriters and shall be subject to Section 2.2.2 if such Preferred Stock Investor
Holder Demand Registration has not previously been designated an underwritten offering; provided, however, that any Preferred Stock Investor Demand Registration exclusively involving shares of Common Stock sold pursuant to block trades
need not be underwritten.
8
The LDC Holders and the Institutional Investors have rights to demand
registrations under the LDC Registration Rights Agreement and the Institutional Investor Registration Rights Agreement, respectively, similar to those of the Preferred Stock Investor Holders under this Agreement. The Company agrees that it shall,
within ten (10) days after receipt of a demand registration request notice from (X) any one or more of the LDC Holders pursuant to the LDC Registration Rights Agreement (an “LDC Demand Registration”) or (Y) any one or more of the
Institutional Investors pursuant to the Institutional Investor Registration Rights Agreement (an “Institutional Investor Demand Registration”) (with the terms “LDC Demand Registration”, “Institutional Investor Demand
Registration” and “Preferred Stock Investor Demand Registration” being collectively referred to herein as a “Demand Registration”), serve written notice (the “Preferred Stock Investor Notice”) of such
registration request to all Preferred Stock Investor Holders holding Registrable Securities and, subject to the pro rata allocations set forth in Section 2.2.4, the Company shall include in such LDC Demand Registration or such
Institutional Investor Demand Registration, as the case may be, all Registrable Securities held by Preferred Stock Investor Holders with respect to which the Company has received a written request for inclusion therein within twenty (20) days after
the giving of the Preferred Stock Investor Notice. Any request by one or more Preferred Stock Investor Holders for inclusion in an LDC Demand Registration or an Institutional Investor Demand Registration shall be deemed to be one (1) of the four (4)
Demand Registrations permitted hereunder if (i) such request is in respect of at least 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock and (ii) at least 75% of the shares of Common Stock requested for inclusion by the Preferred Stock Investor Holders are so
included. The Company represents that the LDC Holders and the Institutional Investors have agreed to the Preferred Stock Investor Holders’ right to participate in LDC Demand Registrations and Institutional Investor Demand Registrations,
respectively, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.
All Preferred Stock Investor Holders
requesting registration of their Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2.2.1 shall specify the aggregate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be registered and the intended methods of disposition thereof. The Preferred Stock
Investor Holders shall collectively be entitled to request, or participate in a Preferred Stock Investor Holder request, an Institutional Investor request or an LDC Holder request for, four (4) Demand Registrations (the last of which shall be a
shelf registration pursuant to Rule 415 under the 1933 Act to be effective for not less than 180 days (the “Shelf Registration”)) pursuant to which a registration statement covering Registrable Securities shall be filed with and
declared effective by the Commission, the expenses of which shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 2.4, and no more than one (1) Preferred Stock Investor Demand Registration may be requested by any Preferred Stock Investor Holder
in any 12-month period; provided, however, that if, following the effective date of any registration statement filed pursuant to a Demand Registration, any Preferred Stock Investor Holder whose Registrable Securities are to be included
in such Demand Registration pursuant to this Section 2.2.1 elects, by giving written notice to the Company not later than ninety (90) days after such effective date, not to dispose of its Registrable Securities because of a material adverse change
in the business, condition (financial or otherwise), assets or prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or because of a material adverse event with respect to the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, not disclosed
in the final prospectus prepared in connection with such Demand Registration, then such Demand Registration shall not count as one (1) of the four (4) Demand Registrations permitted hereunder unless shares of Common Stock representing five
9
percent (5%) or more of the then outstanding Common Stock, including Common Stock Equivalents, are sold pursuant to the registration
statement prepared in connection with such Demand Registration within ninety (90) days of the effective date of such registration statement and prior to the occurrence of such material adverse change or event.
If at the time of any Request Notice (I) the Company is engaged in a registered public offering as to which the Preferred Stock Investor
Holders had the right to include their Registrable Securities, whether as a Piggyback Registration or pursuant to the Preferred Stock Investor Holders’ participation rights in respect of an LDC Demand Registration or an Institutional Investor
Demand Registration, or which was made on Form S-4 or any successor form, (II) the Company is engaged in any other activity outside of the ordinary course of business, such as a merger, consolidation, recapitalization or acquisition which, in the
good faith judgment of the Board, would be materially and adversely affected by the requested registration or (III) the Board makes a good faith determination that the public disclosures required to be made in the requested registration statement
would have a material and adverse impact on the business, financial condition or prospects of the Company, the Company may at its option direct that such request be delayed for a period of not more than ninety (90) days, which right to delay may be
exercised by the Company only one (1) time in respect of each Preferred Stock Investor Demand Registration.
The
Company shall have the same rights to piggyback on a Preferred Stock Investor Demand Registration as a Preferred Stock Investor Holder would have in a Piggyback Registration permitted under Section 2.1 subject to the pro rata
allocations set forth in Section 2.2.4.
2.2.2. Selection of
Underwriters. If a proposed Preferred Stock Investor Demand Registration involves either a firm or best efforts underwritten offering, the Preferred Stock Investor Holder(s) giving the Request Notice with respect to such
Preferred Stock Investor Demand Registration shall have the right, subject to approval by the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), to select the underwriter or underwriters to manage such Preferred Stock Investor Demand
Registration.
2.2.3. Effective Registration Statement. A registration
requested pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall not be deemed to have been effected unless the registration statement prepared in connection therewith has become effective; provided, however, that if, within 75 days after such
registration statement has become effective (135 days in the case of the Shelf Registration), the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or
requirement of the Commission or other governmental agency or court (collectively, a “Stop Order”), such registration shall be deemed not to have been effected. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if any such Stop Order is
rescinded, the effective period shall continue upon such rescission and be extended by the number of days by which such Stop Order reduced the effective period.
2.2.4. Priority on Demand Registrations. If the managing underwriter or underwriters of a Demand Registration initiated under this Agreement, the LDC
Registration Rights Agreement or the Institutional Investor Registration Rights Agreement advise the Company in writing that in its or their opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed
10
to be sold in such Demand Registration exceeds the number which can be sold, or would adversely affect the price
at which the Common Stock could be sold in such offering, the Company will include in such registration only that number of shares of Common Stock which, in the opinion of such underwriter or underwriters, can be sold in such offering without so
affecting such price. The shares of Common Stock to be included in such Demand Registration shall be apportioned (x) first, pro rata among (i) shares of Common Stock held by Preferred Stock Investor Holders who have made a request to
be included in such Demand Registration, (ii) shares of Common Stock held by LDC Holders who have made a request to be included in such Demand Registration and (iii) shares of Common Stock held by Institutional Investors who have made a request to
be included in such Demand Registration, based on the number of shares required to be included in such registration statement, and (y) second, pro rata among any other shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such Demand
Registration, including any shares proposed to be sold by the Company pursuant to such Demand Registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the shares of Common Stock to be included in any Demand Registration prior to June 30, 2004 shall be
apportioned (a) first, pro rata among any shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold by (x) any LDC Holder pursuant to the LDC Registration Rights Agreement and (y) any Institutional Investor pursuant to the Institutional Investor
Registration Rights Agreement, up to a maximum of 40% of the total number of shares of Common Stock to be included in such Demand Registration, (b) second, pro rata among any shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold by any Preferred
Stock Investor Holder and (c) third, pro rata among any other shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such Demand Registration, including any shares proposed to be sold by the Company pursuant to such Demand Registration, in
each case according to the total number of shares of Common Stock requested for inclusion by the Preferred Stock Investor Holders, the LDC Holders and the Institutional Investors, as applicable, or in such other proportions as shall mutually be
agreed to among such selling stockholders, as applicable.
2.2.5. Approval of LDC
Holders and Institutional Investors. As evidenced by the Institutional Investor Registration Rights Agreement and the LDC Registration Rights Agreement, each in the form attached hereto, the Company represents that the Institutional
Investors and the LDC Holders have approved the Company’s entering into this Agreement and the granting to the Preferred Stock Investor Holders of registration rights in respect of Piggyback Registrations and Demand Registrations on the terms
and conditions set forth herein.
2.2.6. Additional Rights. If the
Company at any time grants to any other holders of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents any rights to request the Company to effect the registration under the 1933 Act of any such shares of Common Stock on terms more favorable to such holders
than the terms set forth in this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed amended or supplemented to the extent necessary to provide the Preferred Stock Investor Holders with the same, more favorable terms. The Company shall not grant
any other person rights to register securities of the Company on terms which could restrict in any way the ability of the Company fully to perform its obligations to the Preferred Stock Investor Holders pursuant to this Agreement, except for the
Institutional Investor Registration Rights Agreement and the LDC Registration Rights Agreement and the granting of registration rights in respect of Piggyback Registrations and Demand Registrations to the Institutional Investors and the LDC Holders,
respectively, on the respective terms and conditions set forth in such agreements, to which the Preferred Stock Investors hereby consent.

the holders of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement and the underwriter or underwriters, if any, copies of or drafts of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents shall be subject to the reasonable review
of such holders and underwriters, if any, and the Company shall not file any registration statement or amendment thereto or any prospectus or any supplement thereto or any documents required to be incorporated by reference therein to which the
Preferred Stock Investor Holders or the underwriters, if any, shall reasonably object;
2.3.2. Prepare
and file with the Commission such amendments and post-effective amendments to such registration statement and any documents required to be incorporated by reference therein as may be necessary to keep the registration statement effective for a
period of time as necessary to complete the offering, which period shall be not less than 90 days (or 180 days in the case of the Shelf Registration) (or such shorter period that shall terminate when all Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement have been sold or withdrawn, but not prior to the expiration of the time period referred to in Section 4(3) of the 1933 Act and Rule 174 thereunder, if applicable); cause the prospectus to be supplemented by any required

Stock Investor Holder covered by the registration statement and the underwriter or underwriters, if any, in connection with the offering and sale of the securities covered by the prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto);
2.3.4. Immediately notify each such Preferred Stock Investor Holder, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto
is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, when the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement (as then in effect) contains any untrue statement of material
fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the prospectus or any preliminary prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading and, as promptly as practicable
thereafter, prepare and file with the Commission and furnish a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the Preferred Stock Investor Holders (a reasonable number of such amended and supplemented prospectuses
having been delivered to the Preferred Stock Investor Holders), such prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading;

specified in Section 2.3.2, if requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters or any such Preferred Stock Investor Holder, promptly incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information with respect to the
offering as the managing underwriter or underwriters or such Preferred Stock Investor Holder reasonably requests to be included therein, including, without limitation, with respect to the number of shares being sold by such Preferred Stock Investor
Holder to such underwriter or underwriters, the purchase price being paid therefor by such underwriter or underwriters and with respect to any term of the underwritten offering of the securities to be sold in such offering; and make all required
filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment;
2.3.8. As promptly as practicable after the filing with the Commission of any document which is incorporated by reference into
a registration statement, deliver a reasonable number of copies of such document to each such Preferred Stock Investor Holder;
13
2.3.9. Prior to the date on which the
registration statement is declared effective, use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify, and cooperate with such Preferred Stock Investor Holders, the underwriter or underwriters, if any, and their counsel in connection with the
registration or qualification of, the securities covered by the registration statement for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of each state and other jurisdiction of the United States as such Preferred Stock Investor Holders or
managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, requests in writing, use its reasonable best efforts to keep each such registration or qualification effective, including through new filings, or amendments or renewals, during the period such
registration statement is required to be kept effective and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in all such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by the applicable registration
statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to take any action which would subject it to general service of process in any
such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject;
2.3.10. Enter into such customary
agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions customarily taken by registrants, if any, as the Preferred Stock Investor Holders or the underwriters may reasonably request in order to expedite or
facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;
2.3.11. Obtain a
“comfort” letter or letters from the Company’s independent public accountants in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered by “comfort” letters as the underwriters, if any, may reasonably request;
2.3.12. Make available for inspection by any Preferred Stock Investor Holder holding
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, by any underwriter participating in any disposition to be effected pursuant to such registration statement and by any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller or
any such underwriter, all pertinent financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such
Preferred Stock Investor Holder, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement;
2.3.13. Cooperate with such Preferred Stock Investor Holders and the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not
bearing any restrictive legends) representing securities to be sold under the registration statement, and enable such securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the Preferred Stock Investor Holders or the managing
underwriter or underwriters, if any, may request; and
2.3.14. Use its reasonable best
efforts to cause the securities covered by the registration statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities within the United States, including, without limitation, the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc., as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof or the underwriter or underwriters, if any, to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.
14
The Preferred Stock Investor Holders, upon receipt of any notice from
the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 2.3.4, shall forthwith discontinue disposition of the securities until the Preferred Stock Investor Holders’ receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended
prospectus contemplated by Section 2.3.4 or until they are advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, and have received copies of any additional or supplemental filings which are
incorporated by reference in the prospectus, and, if so directed by the Company, each Preferred Stock Investor Holder shall, or shall request the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, to, deliver to the Company (at the Company’s
expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Preferred Stock Investor Holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such securities which is current at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event that the Company
gives any such notice, the time periods set forth in Section 2.3.4 shall be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when each seller of securities covered by
such registration statement shall have received the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 2.3.4 or the Advice.
SECTION 2.4. Registration Expenses. In the case of any Registration, the Company shall bear all of the costs and expenses of such Registration (including, without
limitation, the expenses of preparing any registration statement, Commission and state “blue sky” filings, registration and qualification fees, the cost of providing any legal opinion or “comfort” letters requested by the
Preferred Stock Investor Holders and printing costs) and legal fees or expenses of one (1) counsel for the Preferred Stock Investor Holders, the LDC Holders and the Institutional Investors mutually selected by the Preferred Stock Investor Holders,
the LDC Holders and the Institutional Investors (such counsel being subject to the reasonable approval of the Company); provided, however, that the Company shall not be responsible for registration or qualification fees or underwriter’s
discounts or commissions that are attributable to the Registrable Securities of a Preferred Stock Investor Holder.
In connection with any Registration, the Company shall be required to obtain independent outside counsel that is sophisticated in securities law matters and that is reasonably satisfactory to a majority of the Preferred Stock
Investor Holders that have shares of Common Stock included in such Registration.
SECTION
2.5. Indemnification and Contribution.
2.5.1 Indemnification by the
Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Preferred Stock Investor Holder, its officers, directors and agents and each person who controls (within the meaning of the 1933 Act and the Exchange Act) such Preferred
Stock Investor Holder against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses arising out of or based upon any untrue or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary
prospectus in which such Preferred Stock Investor Holder is participating or in any document incorporated by reference therein or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein (in the case
of the prospectus or any preliminary prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by, based upon or contained in any information with respect to such Preferred Stock
Investor Holder
15
furnished in writing to the Company by such Preferred Stock Investor Holder expressly for use therein;
provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Preferred Stock Investor Holder from whom the person asserting such loss, claim, damage or
liability purchased shares of Common Stock if it is determined that it was the responsibility of such Preferred Stock Investor Holder to provide such person with a current copy of the prospectus and such current copy of the prospectus would have
cured such loss, claim, damage or liability. The Company shall also indemnify underwriters (as such term is defined in the 1933 Act), their officers and directors and each person who controls such persons (within the meaning of the 1933 Act and the
Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Preferred Stock Investor Holders.
2.5.2. Indemnification by Preferred Stock Investors. In connection with any Registration in which a Preferred Stock Investor Holder is participating, such Preferred Stock
Investor Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits with respect to such Preferred Stock Investor Holder as the Company may reasonably request for use in connection with any registration statement or prospectus
and the Preferred Stock Investors agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers and agents and each person who controls (within the meaning of the 1933 Act and the Exchange Act) the Company against any losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and expenses arising out of or based upon any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact necessary to make the statements in the registration statement or prospectus or preliminary prospectus
(in the case of the prospectus or preliminary prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or
affidavit with respect to such Preferred Stock Investor Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Preferred Stock Investor Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the amount recoverable by the Company from
the Preferred Stock Investors under this indemnification provision shall not exceed the amount of net proceeds received by all Preferred Stock Investor Holders from the sale of Registrable Securities in connection with any such Registration; and
provided further that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.5.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action arising pursuant to a Registration if such settlement is
effected without the consent of the Preferred Stock Investors (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any of the
prospective sellers, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers or controlling persons and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such seller.
2.5.3 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (x) give prompt written
notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (y) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified and indemnifying party, permit
the indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. The failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall relieve the indemnifying party from any liability hereunder with respect
to the action to the extent that such failure materially prejudices the indemnifying party. Whether or not such defense is assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any
16
liability for any settlement made without its consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). No indemnifying party shall
consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or
litigation. An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one 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 of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying
party shall be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such additional counsel or counsels.
2.5.4. Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding Sections 2.5.1 and 2.5.2 is unavailable to an indemnified party as contemplated by the preceding Sections 2.5.1 and
2.5.2 for any reason, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative
benefits received by the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, but also the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
indemnifying party is any Preferred Stock Investor Holder, any contribution pursuant to this Section 2.5.4 shall be several and not joint, and shall be limited to the amount of net proceeds received by such Preferred Stock Investor Holder from the
sale of Registrable Securities in connection with the applicable Registration.
2.5.5. Other
Indemnification. Indemnification similar to that set forth in the preceding subdivisions of this Section 2.5 (with appropriate modifications) shall be given by the Company and the Preferred Stock Investors with respect to any required
registration or other qualification of securities under any Federal or state law or regulation or governmental authority other than the 1933 Act.
SECTION 2.6. Exchange Act Reports. The Company agrees that it will use its reasonable best efforts to file in a timely manner all reports required to be filed by it
pursuant to the Exchange Act to the extent the Company is required to file such reports. Upon request of a Preferred Stock Investor Holder, the Company will furnish the requesting Preferred Stock Investor Holder with such information as may be
necessary to enable such Preferred Stock Investor Holder to effect sales pursuant to Rule 144A.
SECTION
2.7. Restrictions on Public Sale by Holder of Securities.
2.7.1 Lock-Up Periods
for Selling Holders. To the extent not inconsistent with applicable law, any Preferred Stock Investor Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in a Registration relating in whole or in part to an underwritten public offering
agrees not to effect any public sale or distribution of the issue being registered or any similar security of the Company, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, including a public sale pursuant to
Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, during the fourteen (14) days prior to, and during the 180-day period beginning on, the effective date of such registration
17
statement (except as part of such Registration); provided, however, that the foregoing shall only apply if and to the
extent requested by the managing underwriter or underwriters.
2.7.2. Lock-Up Periods During Company
Offering. Each Preferred Stock Investor Holder agrees that, in the event the Company files a registration statement under the 1933 Act with respect to an underwritten public offering of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents, such Preferred Stock Investor Holder shall not effect any public sale or distribution of any Common Stock owned by it (other than as part of such underwritten public offering) within seven (7) days prior to, and during the 180-day
period beginning on, the effective date of such registration statement and the Company hereby also so agrees and agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause, as the managing underwriters may require, each other holder of any equity security,
or of any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security, of the Company purchased from the Company (at any time other than in a public offering) to so agree.
SECTION 2.8. Participation in Registrations. No Preferred Stock Investor Holder may participate in any Registration hereunder unless such
Preferred Stock Investor Holder (x) agrees to sell such Preferred Stock Investor Holder’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (y)
completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, underwriting agreements and other documents customarily required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.
SECTION 2.9. Remedies. Each Preferred Stock Investor shall have the right and remedy to have the provisions of Sections 2.1 and 2.2
specifically enforced by any court having jurisdiction in the event that the Company breaches such provisions, and the Company shall reimburse the Preferred Stock Investor for the reasonable costs of the expenses for counsel for the Preferred Stock
Investor incurred in connection with such proceeding.

SECTION 3.2. Binding Effect; Benefits. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended or shall be construed to give any person other than the parties to this Agreement, the other Preferred Stock Investor
Holders, if any, and their respective successors or assigns any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of any agreement or any provision contained herein. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding, and
supersedes and terminates all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written (including those contained in the letter agreements dated April 17, 2002 between the Company and each Preferred Stock Investor and the Recapitalization
Agreements), between the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof.
SECTION
3.3. Waiver. Any party hereto may, by written notice to any other party (x) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other actions of such other party under this Agreement to the extent that such
obligations or other actions are due to the party giving notice; (y) waive compliance with any of the conditions or covenants of such other party contained in this Agreement to the extent that such conditions or covenants relate to the party giving
notice; and (z) waive or modify performance of any of the obligations of such other party under this Agreement to the extent that such obligations are due to the party giving notice. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, no action taken
pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any investigation by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement
contained herein. Neither the waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision hereof or any preceding or succeeding breach nor the failure by any party to exercise any right or privilege hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of such
party’s rights or privileges hereunder nor shall it be deemed a waiver of such party’s rights to exercise the same at any subsequent time or times hereunder.
SECTION 3.4. Amendments. No amendment, modification or waiver in respect of this Agreement shall be effective unless it shall be in writing and
signed by the Company and the holders of two-thirds of the Registrable Securities. Any such amendment, modification or
19
waiver in respect of this Agreement executed by or on behalf of the Preferred Stock Investors shall bind each other Preferred Stock
Investor Holder, if any, to the terms and conditions thereof. The Company agrees that all holders of Registrable Securities shall be notified by the Company in advance of any proposed amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement, but failure
to give such notice shall not in any way affect the validity of any such amendment, modification or waiver. In addition, promptly after obtaining the written consent of the holders as herein provided, the Company shall transmit a copy of any
amendment, modification or waiver which has been adopted to all holders of Registrable Securities then outstanding, but failure to transmit copies shall not in any way affect the validity of any such amendment, modification or waiver.
SECTION 3.5. Assignability. Neither this Agreement nor any right, remedy, obligation or liability
arising hereunder or by reason hereof shall be assignable by either the Company or any Preferred Stock Investor (other than, in the case of any Preferred Stock Investor, to a Permitted Affiliate of the Preferred Stock Investors in connection with a
transfer of a portion of the Preferred Stock Investor Shares), or any transferee of the foregoing.
SECTION
3.6. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such State.

indemnify and hold harmless the other parties hereto from and against all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including legal fees, incurred by such other parties by reason of the enforcement and protection of their rights under this Agreement. The
payment of such expenses is in addition to any other relief to which such other parties may be entitled.
SECTION
3.8. Section and Other Headings. The section and other headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
