a. There shall be added to Section 2 of the Selling Stockholder Agreement the following subsection (i):
“(i) With a view to making available to the Selling Stockholder the benefits of Rule 144 (or its successor rule) and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Selling Stockholder to sell shares of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company covenants and agrees to: (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, until the earlier of (A) six months after such date as all of the Registrable Securities may be resold pursuant to Rule 144(k) or any other rule of similar effect or (B) such date as all of the Registrable Securities shall have been resold; (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”); and (iii) furnish to each Selling Stockholder upon request, as long as such Selling Stockholder owns any Registrable Securities, (A) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of the 1934 Act, (B) a copy of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and (C) such other information as may be reasonably requested in order to avail such Selling Stockholder of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such Registrable Securities without registration.”
b. The first sentence of Section 5(c) of the Selling Stockholder Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with:
“The Selling Stockholder hereby acknowledges receipt of the Company’s Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Policy, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B.”
c. After the last sentence in Section 5(c) of the Selling Stockholder Agreement, there shall be added the following:
“For not more than twenty (20) consecutive days or for a total of not more than forty-five (45) days in any twelve (12) month period, the Company may delay the disclosure of material non-public information concerning the Company, by suspending the use of any Prospectus included in any registration contemplated by this Section containing such information, the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Company, in the best interests of the Company (an “Allowed Delay”); provided, that the Company shall promptly (i) notify the Selling Stockholder in writing of
2
the existence of (but in no event, without the prior written consent of the Selling Stockholder, shall the Company disclose to such Selling Stockholder any of the facts or circumstances regarding) material non-public information giving rise to an Allowed Delay, (ii) advise the Selling Stockholder in writing to cease all sales under the Registration Statement until the end of the Allowed Delay and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to terminate an Allowed Delay as promptly as practicable.”
d. After the last sentence in Section 7(b), there shall be added the following:
“In no event shall the liability of the Selling Stockholder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of all expense paid by such Selling Stockholder in connection with any claim relating to this Section 7 and the amount of any damages such Selling Stockholder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission) received by such Selling Stockholder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation.”
e. There shall be added to Section 7 the following subsection (e):
“(e) If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding paragraphs (a) and (b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient to hold it harmless, other than as expressly specified therein, 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 the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. 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 not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the contribution obligation of a holder of Registrable Securities be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of all expenses paid by such holder in connection with any claim relating to this Section 7 and the amount of any damages such holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission) received by it upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation.”
8. The Company and the Selling Stockholder hereby ratify and reaffirm all of the terms and conditions of the Selling Stockholder Agreement as specifically amended hereby by this Amendment. No changes, modifications or additions are made to the Selling Stockholder Agreement other than as set forth herein.
