2. Shelf
Registration.
(a) The
Company shall:
(i) not
later
than 30 days after the Effective Date (the “Shelf
Filing Deadline”),
cause
to be filed a registration statement on an appropriate form pursuant to Rule
415
(or any successor rule) under the Securities Act (together with any amendments
thereto, and including any documents incorporated by reference therein if
permitted by such form, the “Shelf
Registration Statement”),
which
Shelf Registration Statement shall provide for resales of all Registrable
Securities held by Holders that have provided the information required pursuant
to the terms of Section
2(b)
hereof;
(ii) use
its
commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to
be
declared effective by the SEC as promptly as is practicable after the date
it is
first filed with the SEC, but in no event later than 180 days after the
Effective Date (the “Effectiveness
Target Date”);
and
(iii) use
its
commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement
continuously effective, supplemented and amended as required by the provisions
of Section
3
hereof
to the extent necessary to ensure that: (A) it is available for resales by
the
Holders of Registrable Securities entitled to the benefit of this Agreement
and
(B) conforms with the requirements of this Agreement and the Securities Act,
in
each case, for a period (the “Effectiveness
Period”)
that
will terminate when all Registrable Securities cease to be Registrable
Securities in accordance with this Agreement.
(b) To
have
its Registrable Securities included in the Shelf Registration Statement pursuant
to this Agreement, each Holder shall complete the Selling Shareholder Notice
and
Questionnaire, the form of which is contained in Exhibit
B
to this
Agreement (the “Questionnaire”).
Holders that do not complete and deliver the Questionnaire will not be named
as
selling shareholders in the Prospectus. In addition, upon receipt of written
request for additional information from the Company, each Holder who intends
to
be named as a selling shareholder in the Shelf Registration Statement shall
furnish to the Company in writing, within 10 Business Days after such Holder’s
receipt of such request, such additional information regarding such Holder
and
the proposed distribution by such Holder of its Registrable Securities, in
connection with the Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus or preliminary
Prospectus included therein and in any application to be filed with or under
state securities law, as the Company may reasonably request. Each Holder agrees
to furnish promptly to the Company all information required to be disclosed
in
order to make any information previously furnished to the Company by such Holder
not materially misleading.
(c) The
Company shall be entitled to include in the Shelf Registration Statement
other
shares of Common Stock (i) to be sold for its own account or (ii) which the
Company is obligated to
register
for resale by others, and such shares shall be Registrable Securities for all
purposes hereof.
3
(d) Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to
exclude from any Shelf Registration Statement such Registrable Securities as
the
Company determines is reasonably necessary for the offering to qualify as a
secondary (rather than a primary) offering pursuant to Rule 415 under the
Securities Act in response to comments from the staff of the SEC. To the extent
any Registrable Securities are so excluded, the Penalty Amount or the Penalty
Shares (as defined herein) will not apply to such excluded shares, and the
Company agrees to register such excluded shares in accordance with this
Section
2
when
eligible to do so under applicable federal securities laws, rules, regulations
and policies, as reasonably determined in consultation with the Company’s
counsel.
(e) The
Company and the Holders agree that the Holders will suffer damages if the
Company fails to fulfill its obligations under this Section
2
and that
it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision.
Accordingly, if:
(i) except
as
provided in Section
3(b)(i)
hereof,
the Shelf Registration Statement is not filed with the SEC prior to or on the
Shelf Filing Deadline;
(ii) except
as
provided in Section
3(b)(i)
hereof,
the Shelf Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the SEC
prior to or on the Effectiveness Target Date;
(iii) except
as
provided in Section
3(b)(i)
hereof,
the Shelf Registration Statement is filed and declared effective but, during
the
Effectiveness Period, shall thereafter cease to be effective or fail to be
usable for its intended purpose without such disability being cured within
10
Business Days by an effective post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration
Statement, a supplement to the Prospectus or a report filed with the SEC
pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that cures
such failure; or
(iv) (A)
prior
to or on the 45th
or
60th
day, as
may be permitted under Section 3(b),
of any
Suspension Period (as such term is defined herein), such suspension has not
been
terminated or (B) Suspension Periods exceed an aggregate of 180 days in any
360-day period, (each such event referred to in foregoing clauses (i) through
(iv), a “Registration
Default”);
the
Company hereby agrees to pay to each Holder, at the Company’s election, an
amount equal to 1.0% of
the
aggregate purchase price of the Preferred Stock purchased by the Holder in
the
Offering in
either
cash (the “Penalty
Amount”)
or
additional shares of Common Stock (the “Penalty
Shares”)
based
on the closing price of the Common Stock on the primary trading market on which
the Common Stock is listed or traded on the date of the closing of the Offering,
for
each
full 30 day period (each, a “Penalty
Period”)
that
elapses during the period beginning on
and
including the day following the Registration Default and ending on but excluding
the day on which the Registration Default(s) have been cured; provided,
however,
that in
no event shall the maximum amount payable for all Registration Defaults
collectively exceed an aggregate of 6.0% of the aggregate purchase price of
the
Preferred Stock purchased by the Holder in the Offering (the “Maximum
Penalty”),
and,
provided further, a Holder will not be entitled to the Penalty Amount or the
Penalty Shares unless it has provided all information requested by the
Questionnaire prior to the deadline specified therein.
4
(f) The
Maximum Penalty shall constitute the maximum aggregate amount of penalties
available to each Holder for any and all penalties contained in this Agreement
(including, but not limited to, any penalties as a result of a Registration
Defaults).
(g)
The
Penalty Amount to be paid and the Penalty Shares to be issued pursuant to this
Section
2
shall be
the exclusive remedy available to Holders for such Registration
Defaults.
3. Registration
Procedures.
(a) In
connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall use its
reasonable best efforts to effect such registration to permit the sale of the
Registrable Securities being sold in accordance with the intended method or
methods of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto, shall expeditiously
prepare and file with the SEC a Shelf Registration Statement relating to the
registration on any appropriate form under the Securities Act.
(b) In
connection with the Shelf Registration Statement and any Prospectus required
by
this Agreement to permit the sale or resale of Registrable Securities, the
Company shall:
(i) Use
its
best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective
during the Effectiveness Period; upon the occurrence of any event that would
cause the Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus contained
therein (A) to contain a material misstatement or omission or (B) not be
effective and usable for
the
resale of Registrable Securities during the Effectiveness Period, the Company
shall file promptly an appropriate amendment to the Shelf Registration
Statement, a supplement to the Prospectus or a report filed with the SEC
pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, in the case
of clause (A), correcting any such misstatement or omission, and, in the case
of
either clause (A) or (B), use its best efforts to cause any such amendment
to be
declared effective and the Shelf Registration Statement and the related
Prospectus to become usable for their intended purposes as soon as practicable
thereafter. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
Company may delay the filing or declaration of effectiveness, and/or suspend
the
effectiveness, of the Shelf Registration Statement by written notice to the
Holders for a period (each such period, a “Suspension
Period”)
not to
exceed an aggregate of 45 days in any 90-day period, and not to exceed an
aggregate of 180 days in any 360-day period, if:
(x) an
event
occurs and is continuing as a result of which the Shelf Registration Statement
would, in the Company’s reasonable judgment, contain 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; and
(y) the
Company reasonably determines that the disclosure of such event at such time
would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its business;
5
provided,
that in
the event that the disclosure relates to a previously undisclosed proposed
or
pending material business transaction, the disclosure of which would impede
the
Company’s ability to consummate such transaction, the Company may extend a
Suspension Period from 45 days to 60 days during any 90-day period.
(ii) Notify
each selling Holder of the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement
and
prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments
to
the Shelf Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the Shelf
Registration Statement continuously effective during the Effectiveness Period;
cause the Prospectus to be supplemented by any required prospectus supplement,
and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities
Act, and to comply fully with the applicable provisions of Rules 424 and 430A
under the Securities Act in a timely manner; and comply with the provisions
of
the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered
by
the Shelf Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance
with
the intended method or methods of distribution by the sellers thereof set forth
in the Shelf Registration Statement or supplement to the
Prospectus.
(iii) Advise
the underwriter(s), if any, and selling Holders:
(A) of
the
issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf
Registration Statement under the Securities Act or of the suspension by any
state securities commission of the qualification of the Registrable Securities
for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation of any proceeding
for any of the preceding purposes, or
(B) of
the
existence of any fact or the happening of any event, during the Effectiveness
Period, that makes any statement of a material fact made in the Shelf
Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto,
or
any document incorporated by reference therein, untrue, or that requires the
making of any additions to or changes in the Shelf Registration Statement or
the
Prospectus in order to make the statements therein not misleading. Each Holder
of Registrable Securities, by accepting the same, agrees to hold any
communication from the Company pursuant to this Section
3(b)(iii)
in
confidence.
If
at any
time the SEC shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
Shelf Registration Statement,
or any state securities commission or other regulatory authority shall issue
an
order suspending
the
qualification or exemption from qualification of the Registrable Securities
under state securities or “blue sky” laws, the Company shall use its best
efforts to obtain the withdrawal or lifting of such order at the earliest
possible time and will provide to the each Holder who is named in the Shelf
Registration Statement prompt notice of the withdrawal of any such
order.
(iv) Furnish
to each selling Holder and to each of the underwriter(s), if any, and
their
respective counsel, if any, before filing with the SEC, a copy of the Shelf
Registration Statement
(including any amendments thereto) and copies of any Prospectus (including
any
supplements thereto) included therein or any amendments or supplements to the
Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus (other than documents incorporated
by
reference after the initial filing of the Shelf Registration Statement), which
documents shall reflect such comments as the Holders (and their counsel) may
reasonably and timely propose.
6
(v) Make
reasonably available for inspection by one or more representatives of the
selling Holders designated in writing by a Majority of Holders whose Registrable
Securities are included in the Shelf Registration Statement, any underwriter
participating in any distribution pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement,
and any attorney or accountant retained by such selling
Holders or any of the underwriter(s), all relevant 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
representative or representatives of the selling Holders, underwriter, attorney
or accountant in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement as shall
be
reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise any applicable due diligence
responsibilities, provided,
however,
that
any information designated by the Company as confidential at the time of
delivery of such information shall be kept confidential by the recipient
thereof; and provided,
further,
that in
no event shall the Company be required to furnish any material nonpublic
information pursuant to this subsection (v).
(vi) If
requested by any selling Holders or the underwriter(s), if any, promptly
incorporate in the Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus, pursuant to
a
supplement or post-effective amendment if necessary, such information as such
selling Holders and underwriter(s), if any, may
reasonably request to have included therein and
to
which the Company does not reasonably object,
including, without limitation: (A) information relating to
the
“Plan of Distribution” of the Registrable Securities, (B) information with
respect to the number of Registrable Securities being sold, (C) the purchase
price being paid therefor and (D) any other terms of the offering of the
Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; provided,
however,
that
with respect to any information requested for inclusion by a selling Holder,
this clause (vi) shall apply only to such information that relates to the
Registrable Securities to be sold by such selling Holder; and make all required
filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as
reasonably practicable after the Company is notified of the matters to be
incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment.
(vii) If
an
underwriting agreement is entered into in connection with the registration,
the
Company shall:
(A) upon
reasonable request, furnish to each selling Holder and each underwriter, in
such
substance and scope as are customarily made by issuers to underwriters in
primary underwritten offerings for selling security holders, upon the date
of
closing of any sale of Registrable Securities in an Underwritten
Offering:
(1) opinions,
each dated the date of such closing, of counsel to the Company covering such
of
the matters as are customarily covered in legal opinions to underwriters in
connection with underwritten offerings of securities; and
(2) customary
comfort letters, dated the date of such closing, from the Company’s independent
accountants, in the customary form and covering matters of the type customarily
covered in comfort letters to underwriters in connection with primary
underwritten offerings of securities;
7
(B) set
forth
in full in the underwriting agreement, if any, indemnification provisions and
procedures which provide rights no less protective than those set forth in
Section
5
hereof
with respect to all parties to be indemnified; and
(C) deliver
such other documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by such
parties to evidence compliance with clause (A) above and with any customary
conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or other agreement entered
into by the selling Holders pursuant to this clause (vii).

any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its best efforts to register
or qualify the Registrable Securities under the securities or Blue Sky laws
of
such jurisdictions in the United States as the selling Holders or
underwriter(s), if any, may reasonably request and do any and all other acts
or
things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions
of
the Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement;
provided,
however,
that
the Company shall not be required (A) to register or qualify as a foreign
corporation or a dealer of securities where it is not
now
so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to the service of
process in any jurisdiction
where it
is not now so subject or (B) to subject itself to taxation in any such
jurisdiction if it is not now so subject.
(ix) Cooperate
with the selling Holders and the underwriter(s), if any, to facilitate the
timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable

by applicable securities laws) and enable such Registrable Securities to be
in
such denominations and registered in such names as the Holders or the
underwriter(s), if any, may request at least three Business Days before any
sale
of Registrable Securities.
(x) Subject
to Section
3(b)(i)
hereof,
if any fact or event contemplated by Section
3(b)(iii)(B)
hereof
shall exist or have occurred, use its reasonable best efforts to prepare a
supplement or post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement
or
related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file
any
other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers
of
Registrable Securities, the Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement
of a
material fact or omit to state any 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.
(xi) Provide
a
transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Securities not later
than
the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement.

into such customary agreements (including underwriting agreements in customary
form) and take all such other lawful actions as a Majority of Holders or the
underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate
the
disposition of Registrable Securities (including effecting a stock split or
combination of shares).
(xv) Cause
all
Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement to be listed
or quoted, as the case may be, on each securities exchange or automated
quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then
listed or quoted.
(c) Each
Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice (a “Suspension
Notice”)
from the
Company of the existence of any fact of the kind described in Section
4(b)(x)
or
Section
4(b)(iii)(B)
hereof,
such Holder will, and will use its reasonable efforts to cause any
underwriter(s) in an Underwritten Offering to, forthwith discontinue disposition
of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement
until:
(i) such
Holder has received copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus
contemplated by Section
4(b)(xiii)
hereof;
or
(ii) such
Holder is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus
may
be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings
that are incorporated by reference in the Prospectus.
If
so
directed by the Company, each Holder will deliver to the Company all
copies,
other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the
Prospectus covering such
Registrable Securities that was current at the time of receipt of such notice
of
suspension.
(d) If
a
Holder is identified in the Shelf Registration Statement as an “underwriter”
(any such Holder, an “Identified
Holder”),
then at
the request of such Identified Holder the Company shall
furnish to such Identified Holder, on the date of the effectiveness of the
Shelf
Registration Statement
and
thereafter from time to time on such dates as such Identified Holder may
reasonably request, (i) a letter, dated such date, from the Company’s
independent certified public accountants in form and substance as is customarily
given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an
underwritten public offering, addressed to such Identified Holder, and (ii)
an
opinion, dated as of such date, of counsel representing the Company for purposes
of the Shelf Registration Statement, in form, scope and substance as is
customarily given in an underwritten public offering, addressed to such
Identified Holder.

insurance and the fees and expenses of any Person, including special experts,

from and
against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, joint or several, or
any
action in respect
thereof (including, but not limited to, any loss, claim, damage, liability,

to
resales of the Registrable Securities), together with reasonable costs and
expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) to which such Indemnified Holder

hereof
in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the

specifically for use therein or (B) the failure by the Holder or Indemnified
Holder to deliver to any purchaser of its Registrable Securities the Prospectus

thereto or any Blue Sky Application or other document referred to in
Section
5(a)(i)
hereof;

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 written
information prepared and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder
(or its related Indemnified Holder) specifically for use therein, and shall
reimburse the Company and any such officer, employee or controlling person
promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by
the
Company or any such officer, employee or controlling person in connection with
investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim,
damage, liability, expense or action as such expenses are incurred, provided
that the obligation to indemnify will be individual, not joint and several,
for
each Holder and shall be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by
such
Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf
Registration Statement.
(c) Promptly
after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section
5
of
notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party
shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying
party under this Section
5,
notify
the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that
action; provided,
however,
that
the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying
party from any liability which it may have under this Section
5
except
to the extent the indemnifying party has been prejudiced by such failure. If
any
such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it
shall
notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled
to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any
other
similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with
counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the
indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the
defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable
to
the indemnified party under this Section
5
for any
legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in
connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of
investigation; provided,
however,
that a
Majority of Holders shall have the right to employ at the expense of such
Holders a single counsel to represent jointly the Holders and their respective
directors, officers, members, agents, partners, employees and controlling
persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect
of
which indemnity may be sought by Holders against the Company under this
Section
5;
and
provided, further, that if a Majority of Holders shall have reasonably concluded
that there may be one or more legal defenses available to them and their
respective officers, employees and controlling persons that are different from
or additional to those available to the Company and its officers, directors,
employees and controlling persons, then the fees and expenses of such single
separate counsel shall be paid for by the indemnifying party. No indemnifying
party shall:
11
(i) without
the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which consent shall not
be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) settle or compromise or consent to the entry
of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit
or
proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought
hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential
parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent
includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability
arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding, or
(ii) be
liable
for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if settled
with its written consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff
in
any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such
settlement or judgment.
(d) If
the
indemnification provided for in this Section
5
shall
for any reason be unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified
party under Section
5(a)
or
5(b)
in
respect of any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or action in respect
thereof) referred to therein, each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of
indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable
by
such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability
(or
action in respect thereof):
(i) in
such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on
the
one hand and the Holders on the other, or
(ii) if
the
allocation provided by clause
5(d)(i)
is not
permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
not
only the relative fault referred to in clause
5(d)(i)
but also
the relative benefits received by the Company from the offering and sale of
the
Registrable Securities on the one hand and a Holder with respect to the sale
by
such Holder of the Registrable Securities on the other in connection with the
statements or omissions or alleged statements or alleged omissions that resulted
in such loss, claim, damage or liability (or action in respect thereof), as
well
as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The
relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and a Holder on the
other with respect to such offering and such sale shall be deemed to be in
the
same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Registrable
Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, on the one
hand,
bear to the total proceeds received by such Holder (before deducting expenses)
with respect to its sale of Registrable Securities on the other. The relative
fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Holders on the other, the intent
of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
12
The
Company and each Holder agree that it would not be just and equitable if the
amount of contribution pursuant to this Section
5(d)
were
determined by pro
rata allocation
(even if the selling Holders were treated as one entity
for such
purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account
the equitable considerations referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph
(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the
loss,
claim, damage, liability or expense, or action in respect thereof, referred
to above in this Section
5
shall be
deemed to include, for purposes of this Section
5
and
subject to
the
limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
by
such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending or
preparing to defend any such action or claim.
Notwithstanding
the provisions of this Section
5,
no
Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by
which net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable
Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement exceeds the amount of
any
damages which such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 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. The Holders’ obligations to
contribute as provided in this Section
5(d) are
several and not joint.
6. Participation
in Underwritten Offerings.
No
Holder
may participate in any Underwritten Offering hereunder unless such
Holder:
(a) agrees
to
sell such Holder’s Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any
underwriting
arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such
arrangements; and
(b) completes
and executes all reasonable and customary questionnaires, powers of attorney,
custody agreements, indemnities, underwriting agreements, lock-up letters and
other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements,
provided that no Holder shall be required to make any representations or
warranties to the Company or the underwriters (other than representations and
warranties regarding such Holder and such Holder’s intended method of
distribution) or to undertake any indemnification obligations to the Company
or
the underwriters with respect thereto, except as otherwise provided in
Section
5
hereof.
7. Selection
of Underwriters.
The
Holders of Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement
who desire to do so may sell such Registrable Securities in an Underwritten
Offering. In any such Underwritten Offering, the investment banking firm or
firms and manager or managers that will administer the offering will be selected
by a Majority of Holders whose Registrable Securities are
included
in such offering; provided,
that
such investment banking firms must be reasonably satisfactory to
the
Company.
13

Holders
of Registrable Securities; provided,
however,

Form

The
undersigned Holder of the Registrable Securities of the Company understands
that
the Company has filed, or intends to file, with the SEC a Shelf Registration
Statement for the registration and
resale under Rule 415 of the Securities Act, Registrable Securities in
accordance with the terms of the
Registration Rights Agreement. A copy of the Registration Rights Agreement
is
available from the Company upon request at the address set forth
below.
Each
beneficial owner of Registrable Securities that has agreed in writing to be
bound by the Registration Rights Agreement is entitled to the benefits of the
Registration Rights Agreement. In order to sell or otherwise dispose of any
Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, a
beneficial owner of Registrable Securities generally will be required to be
named as a selling securityholder
in the related Prospectus, deliver a Prospectus either to purchasers of
Registrable Securities
or, if
relying on Rule 172 of the Securities Act, confirm that a current prospectus
is
deemed delivered in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities, and
be
bound by those provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement applicable to
such beneficial owner (including certain indemnification provisions, as
described below). Beneficial owners are encouraged to complete and deliver
this
Notice and Questionnaire prior to the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration
Statement so that such beneficial owners may be named as selling securityholders
in the related prospectus.
Certain
legal consequences arise from being named as a selling securityholder in the
Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus. Accordingly, holders
and beneficial owners of Registrable Securities are advised to consult their
own
securities law counsel regarding the consequences of being named or not being
named as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement and the
related Prospectus.
