(a) Piggyback Registration. If at any time within the 12-month period following the

sale to the public on its own account or the account of any of its security holders (other than a
registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, a registration relating to the offer and
sale of debt securities, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization or other Rule 145
transaction, or a registration on any registration form that does not permit secondary sales), then
the Company shall give written notice of such proposed registration to the Holders. Within ten
(10) days after the Company’s notice is deemed given pursuant to Section 9(b),
3
any Holder who desires to include Registrable Securities in such proposed
registration shall deliver to the Company a written request specifying the number of Registrable
Securities that such Holder desires to include in the proposed registration. Upon receipt of such
written request, the Company shall, subject to Section 2(b), Section 2(c) and
Section 2(d), use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in such proposed
registration (and any related qualification under “blue sky” laws) all Registrable Securities of
the Holder requested to be registered. If any Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable
Securities in a registration by the Company pursuant to this Section 2(a), the registration
rights of such Holder under this Section 2(a) shall continue to apply to subsequent
registrations with respect to Registrable Securities retained by such Holder, all upon the terms
and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The Company shall have the right to terminate or
withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 2(a) prior to the
effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in
such registration. Any proceeds attributable to Escrow Shares shall remain subject to the terms
and conditions of the Escrow Agreement.
(b) Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Holder may participate in any
underwritten registration hereunder unless such Holder (a) enters into an underwriting agreement in
customary form with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters selected by the Company
or other Persons entitled to select such underwriters and agrees to sell its Registrable Securities
on the basis of the terms in such underwriting agreement, and (b) completes and executes all
questionnaires, lock-up agreements, powers of attorney, indemnities, custody agreements and other
documents required under the terms of such underwriting agreement. If a Holder who has requested
inclusion in an underwritten offering does not agree to the terms of any such underwriting, such
Holder and such Holder’s securities shall be excluded therefrom and from the Registration Statement
by written notice from the Company or the underwriter.
(c) Senior Registration Rights. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the
registration rights of the Holders set forth in this Agreement shall be subordinate to the
registration rights of the Senior Holders under the Senior Registration Rights Agreement and, in
the event of any reduction in the number of shares to be registered in a proposed registration, the
number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in the proposed registration shall be
reduced prior to any reduction in the number of shares to be registered on the account of the
Senior Holders in such registration to the extent required by, and in accordance with, the Senior
Registration Rights Agreement.
(d) Postponement of Effectiveness. Upon receipt of any notice (a “Suspension
Notice”) from the Company of the happening of any event which makes any statement made or
incorporated in a Registration Statement or a related prospectus untrue or which requires the
making of any changes in such Registration Statement or prospectus (or the information incorporated
therein) so that they will not contain any 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 the
light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, each Holder of Registrable
Securities registered under such Registration Statement shall forthwith discontinue disposition of
Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the
copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus or until it
4
is
advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, and has
received copies of any additional or supplemental filings which are incorporated by reference in
the prospectus. In the event that the Company shall give any Suspension Notice, the Company shall
use commercially reasonable efforts to render the Advice and end the suspension period as promptly
as reasonably practicable. The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments
and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as
may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective and in compliance with
applicable laws until such time as all Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to the
Registration Statement; provided, however, the Company shall not be required to
keep such Registration Statement effective for more than 120 days (or such shorter period which
will terminate when all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been
sold, but not prior to the expiration of the applicable period referred to in Section 4(3) of the
Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder, if applicable) (the first to occur, the “Expiration
Date”).
The Company may require each seller of Registrable Securities as to which any registration is
being effected to furnish to the Company such information as is required to be included with
respect to such seller in a Registration Statement including information regarding themselves, the
Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of disposition of such securities. Such
information may be requested pursuant to an investor questionnaire prepared for such purpose.
Each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of a Suspension Notice as
set forth in this Section 2(d), such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such
Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement or prospectus until such Holder’s
receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by this Section
2(d) hereof, or until it receives Advice that the use of the prospectus may be resumed and such
Holder has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or
deemed to be incorporated by reference in such prospectus. Further, each Holder acknowledges and
agrees that its receipt of a Suspension Notice may constitute material, non-public information
under federal and/or applicable state securities laws.
3. Registration Procedures.
With respect to any registration which includes Registrable Securities held by a Holder, the
Company shall:
(a) prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement on the appropriate form
under the Securities Act with respect to such securities, which form shall comply in all material
respects with the requirements of the applicable form and include all financial statements required
by the Commission to be filed therewith, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such
Registration Statement to become and remain effective until completion of the proposed offering;
5
(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such Registration

enable such selling Holder to consummate the public sale or other disposition in such jurisdictions
of the securities owned by such selling Holder, except that the Company shall not for any such
purpose be required to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation or consent to service of
process in any jurisdiction wherein it is not so qualified or has not so consented;
(d) make generally available to the Holders an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of

cover said twelve (12)-month period, and which requirement will be deemed to be satisfied if the
Company satisfies the requirements of Rule 158 under the Securities Act;

an underwritten offering;
(g) during the period when the prospectus is required to be delivered under the Securities
Act, promptly file all documents required to be filed with the Commission, including pursuant to
Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14, or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;
(h) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant
hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case no later than the
effective date of such registration;
(i) cause all Registrable Securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement to be
listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) or other exchange on which securities of the
same class issued by the Company are then listed prior to or concurrent with the effectiveness of
the Registration Statement;
6
(j) provide copies to and permit one legal counsel designated by the selling Holders to review
the Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto no fewer than three (3) days
prior to their filing with the Commission; provided, however, that notwithstanding
the foregoing, if the Company intends to file any prospectus, prospectus supplement or prospectus
sticker which does not make any material changes in the documents already filed (including, without
limitation, any prospectus under Rule 430A or 424(b)), then the counsel for the selling Holders
will be afforded such opportunity to review such documents prior to filing consistent with the time
constraints involved in filing such document, but in any event no less than one (1) day;
(k) upon request of a selling Holder or the legal counsel designated by the selling Holders,

thereto and such other documents as selling Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate

necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then
existing, and at the request of any such Holder, use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly
prepare and furnish to such Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment
of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such
Registrable Securities, such 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 in light of the circumstances then existing; and

4. Indemnification.
(a) Indemnification by the Company. To the extent permitted by law, the Company will
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the members, owners, partners, officers, directors,
employees, agents, successors and assigns of each Holder, and each Person controlling such Holder
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act (each a “Holder Indemnified
Person”), against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (individually and collectively,
the “Liability”) (joint or several) to which such Holder Indemnified Person may become
subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such Liability (or actions or proceedings
in respect thereof) arises out of or is based upon any of the following statements, omissions or
violations by the Company (collectively a “Company Violation”): (i) any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which
such Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement,
including any final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged
violation of the Securities Act, or any applicable federal or state securities law or any rule or
regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, or any applicable federal or state securities law
in connection with the offering covered by such Registration Statement; provided
however, that the Company shall not be required to indemnify any Holder Indemnified Person
against any Liability to the extent that such Liability (or actions or proceedings in respect
thereof) arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity
with written information furnished by such Holder Indemnified Person expressly for use in
connection with a Registration Statement, including any final prospectus contained therein or any
amendments or supplements thereto; provided further, that the Company shall not be
required to indemnify any Holder Indemnified Person against Liability to the extent that such
Liability (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arises out of or is based upon an untrue
statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus if (i) such Holder Indemnified Person
failed to send or deliver a copy of the final prospectus with or prior to the delivery of written
confirmation of the sale by such Holder to the Person asserting the claim from which such
Liabilities arise, and (ii) the final prospectus would have corrected such untrue statement or such
omission; provided further, that the Company shall not be required to indemnify any
Holder Indemnified Person against Liability to the extent that such Liability (or actions or
proceedings in respect thereof) arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or omission in
any prospectus if (x) such untrue statement or omission is corrected in an amendment or supplement
to such prospectus, and (y) having previously been furnished by or on behalf of the Company with
copies of such prospectus as so amended or supplemented, such Holder Indemnified Person thereafter
fails to deliver such prospectus as so amended or supplemented prior to or concurrently with the
sale of a Registrable Security to the Person asserting the claim from which such Liabilities arise;
and provided further, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section
4(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement if such settlement is effected without the
consent of the Company (which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). The Company’s
indemnification obligations shall survive any transfer by such Holder of its Registrable
Securities.
8
(b) Indemnification by Holders. To the extent permitted by law, each Holder agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of the officers, directors, employees, agents,
successors and assigns of the Company, any other stockholder selling shares of Common
Stock in such registration, and each Person controlling the Company or such other stockholder
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act the Company (each a “Company Indemnified
Person”), from and against any Liability (joint or several) to which any such Company
Indemnified Person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such
Liability (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arises out of or is based upon any of the
following statements, omissions or violations by the Holder (collectively a “Holder
Violation”): (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered
under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, including any final prospectus contained
therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading, in each case to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission occurs in reliance upon and conformity with written information
furnished by such Holder, any of such Holder’s officers, directors, partners, legal counsel or
accountants or any Person controlling such Holder expressly for use in connection with a
Registration Statement, including any final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or
supplements thereto; provided however, that the indemnity agreement contained in
this Section 4(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement if such settlement is
effected without the consent of the Holder (which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).
The amount recoverable by the Company from any Holder under this indemnification provision together
with any amounts recovered from such Holder under Section 4(d) shall not exceed the amount
of net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities in connection with
any such registration, except in the case of willful fraud, or intentional misstatement or omission
by such Holder. Each Holder’s indemnification obligations shall survive any transfer by such Holder
of its Registrable Securities.
(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. In the event any Company Indemnified
Person or Holder Indemnified Person ( each an “Indemnified Person”) receives a complaint,
claim or other notice of any liability or action, giving rise to a claim for indemnification under
Sections 4(a) or 4(b) above, the Person claiming indemnification under such
paragraphs shall promptly notify the Person against whom indemnification is sought (the
“Indemnifying Person”) of such complaint, notice, claim or action, and the Indemnifying
Person shall have the right to investigate and defend any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action; provided however, that the failure to promptly give notice shall not
relieve the Indemnifying Person from any Liability except to the extent that it is materially
prejudiced by the failure or delay of the Indemnified Person in giving such notice. If any such
complaint, claim or other notice of any Liability or action is brought against any Indemnified
Person and it notifies the Indemnifying Person of its commencement, the Indemnifying Person will be
entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it elects by delivering written notice to the
Indemnified Person promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the
Indemnified Person, jointly with any other Indemnifying Person similarly notified, to assume the
defense of the action, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person, and after
notice from the Indemnifying Person to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the
defense, the Indemnifying Person shall not be liable to the Indemnified Person for any legal or
other expenses except as provided below. The Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ its
own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such
9
counsel shall be
at the expense of the Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnified Person has reasonably concluded
(based on advice of legal counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other
Indemnified Persons different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person or
Persons, or (ii) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the
Indemnified Person) between the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person (in which case the
Indemnifying Person shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the
Indemnified Person), in each of which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of
counsel will be at the expense of the Indemnifying Person or Persons. The Indemnifying Person or
Persons shall not, unless a conflict of interest exists among the Indemnified Persons, in
connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the
reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm admitted to
practice in such jurisdiction at any time for all such Indemnified Persons. All such fees,
disbursements and other charges shall be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Person promptly as they are
incurred. An Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any action or claim
effected without its written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld). No
Indemnifying Person shall, without the prior written consent of each Indemnified Person, settle or
compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or
proceeding relating to the matters contemplated by this Section 4 (whether or not any
Indemnified Person is a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an
unconditional release of each Indemnified Person from all liability arising or that may arise out
of such claim, action or proceeding.
(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 4 from
the Indemnifying Person is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an
Indemnified Person hereunder in respect of any Liability or expenses referred to herein, then the
Indemnifying Person, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person, shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such Liability or expenses in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Person and
Indemnified Persons in connection with the actions which resulted in such Liability or expenses, as
well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Person
and Indemnified Persons shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action
in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, has been made by,
or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Person or Indemnified Persons, and the
parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such action. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 4(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method
of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the
immediately preceding paragraph. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person
who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The amount recoverable by the Company from
any Holder under this provision together with any amounts recovered from such Holder under
Section 4(b) shall not exceed the amount of net proceeds received by such Holder from the
sale of Registrable Securities in connection with any such registration, except in the case of
willful fraud, or intentional misstatement or omission by such Holder.
10
(e) The amount paid by an Indemnifying Person or payable to an Indemnified Person as a result
of the Liabilities or expenses referred to in this Section 4 shall be deemed to include,
subject to limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses, in each case, reasonably
incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending any such action
or claim. The indemnification and contribution provided for in this Section 4 shall remain
in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified
Persons or any other officer, director, employee, agent or controlling person of the Indemnified
Persons.
5. Registration Expenses.
All expenses incurred in connection with effecting the registrations provided for in
Section 2 including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing
expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, expenses of any audits incident to or
required by any such registration and expenses of complying with the state securities or “blue sky”
laws of any jurisdictions but excluding any Selling Expenses (all of such expenses referred to as
“Registration Expenses”), shall be paid by the Company whether or not the Registration
Statement to which such Registration Expenses relate becomes effective; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be liable (and shall be reimbursed by the participating
Holders) for any Registration Expenses if such registration statement does not become effective as
a result of the actions or omissions of the Holders participating in the registration. All Selling
Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of the Holders shall be paid by the Holders.
6. Lock-Up.
Each Holder agrees not to directly or indirectly offer, sell, contract to sell, sell any
option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or
warrant for the sale of or otherwise dispose of or transfer any shares of capital stock of the
Company held by it during the period commencing ten (10) days prior to the effective date of a
registration statement related to an underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities and
ending one hundred and eighty (180) days following the effective date of such registration
statement (or for such shorter period of time as is sufficient and appropriate in the opinion of
the managing underwriter or for such longer period of time as may be requested by the Company or an
underwriter to accommodate regulatory restrictions on (i) the publication or other distribution of
research reports and (ii) analyst recommendations and opinions, including, but not limited to, the
restrictions contained in NASD Rule 2711(f)(4) or NYSE Rule 472(f)(4), or any successor provisions
or amendments thereto) and, if so requested by the Company or managing underwriter, each Holder
shall execute an agreement with respect to the foregoing.
7. Rule 144.
The Company covenants that it will timely 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 Commission
thereunder and to take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent
required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Securities without
registration under the Securities Act subject to the limitations of the exemptions provided by Rule
144 or any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission.
Upon request, the Company will provide to a Holder written certification of its compliance
with the reporting requirements of Rule 144.
11
8. Restrictions on Transfer.
(a) The Holder of each certificate representing Registrable Securities by acceptance thereof
agrees to comply in all respects with the provisions of this Section 8. Each Holder agrees
not to make any sale, assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition of all or any portion of
the Registrable Securities, or any beneficial interest therein, unless and until:
(i) There is then in effect a Registration Statement under the Securities Act covering such
proposed disposition and the disposition is made in accordance with the Registration Statement; or
(ii) The Holder may dispose of the Registrable Securities in compliance with Rule 144; or
(iii) The Holder shall have given prior written notice to the Company of the Holder’s
intention to make such disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed description
of the manner and circumstances of the proposed disposition, and the Holder shall have furnished
the Company, at the Holder’s expense, with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Company to the effect that such disposition will not require registration of such Registrable
Securities under the Securities Act whereupon the holder of such Registrable Securities shall be
entitled to transfer such Registrable Securities in accordance with the terms of the notice
delivered by the Holder to the Company.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8(a), no such Registration Statement or

laws):
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF CERTAIN STATES. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE
OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT
AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM. THE ISSUER
OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT
SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION OTHERWISE COMPLIES WITH THE ACT AND ANY
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

any transfer agent of the Registrable Securities in order to implement the restrictions on transfer
established in this Section 8. The legends stamped on a certificate evidencing the
Registrable Securities and the stock transfer instructions and record notations with respect to the
Registrable Securities shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate without such
legend to the Holder if (i) those securities are registered under the Securities Act, or (ii) the
Holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company to the
effect that a sale or transfer of those securities may be made without registration or
qualification.
