Registration
(a) On

Commission a Registration Statement covering the resale of all or such maximum
portion of the Registrable Securities as permitted by SEC Guidance (provided
that, the Company shall use diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission for
the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the SEC
Guidance, including without limitation, the Manual of Publicly Available
Telephone Interpretations D.29) that are not then registered on an effective
Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant
to Rule 415. Each Registration Statement filed hereunder shall be on
Form S-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the
Registrable Securities on Form S-3, in which case such registration shall be on
another appropriate form in accordance herewith) and shall contain (unless
otherwise directed by at least an 85% majority in interest of the Holders)
substantially the “Plan of Distribution”
attached hereto as Annex
A. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall
use its best efforts to cause a Registration Statement to be declared effective
under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, but
in any event prior to the applicable Effectiveness Date, and shall use its best
efforts to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective under the
Securities Act until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
Statement have been sold, or may be sold without volume or manner-of-sale
restrictions pursuant to Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be
in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144, as
determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to
such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Transfer Agent and the affected
Holders (the “Effectiveness
Period”). The Company shall telephonically request
effectiveness of a Registration Statement as of 5:00 p.m. New York City time on
a Business Day. The Company shall immediately notify the
Holders via facsimile or by e-mail of the effectiveness of a Registration
Statement on the same Business Day that the Company telephonically confirms
effectiveness with the Commission, which shall be the date requested for
effectiveness of such Registration Statement. The Company shall on
the Business Day after the effective date of such Registration Statement, file a
final Prospectus with the Commission as required by Rule 424. Failure
to so notify the Holder within 2 Business Days of such notification of
effectiveness or failure to file a final Prospectus as foresaid shall be deemed
an Event under Section 2(b). Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement and subject to the payment of liquidated damages pursuant to
Section 2(b), if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation on the number of
Registrable Securities and other securities permitted to be registered on a
particular Registration Statement (and notwithstanding that the Company used
diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all or
a greater portion of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in
writing by a Holder as to its Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable
Securities or other securities to be registered on such Registration Statement
will be reduced by Registrable Securities issued to Vision, Immersive Media
Corp. and other retail investors applied, in the case that some Registrable
Securities may be registered, to the Holders on a pro rata basis based on the
total number of unregistered Registrable Securities held by such Holders. In the
event of a cutback hereunder, the Company shall give the Holder at least 5
Business Days prior written notice along with the calculations as to such
Holder’s allotment.
-3-
(b) If:
(i) the Initial Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to its Filing
Date, or (ii) the Company fails to file with the Commission a request for
acceleration of a Registration Statement in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated
by the Commission pursuant to the Securities Act, within three Business Days of
the date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is
earlier) by the Commission that such Registration Statement will not be
“reviewed” or will not be subject to further review, or (iii) prior to the
effective date of a Registration Statement, the Company fails to file a
pre-effective amendment and otherwise respond in writing to comments made by the
Commission in respect of such Registration Statement within 21 calendar days
after the receipt of comments by or notice from the Commission that such
amendment is required in order for such Registration Statement to be declared
effective, or (iv) as to, in the aggregate among all Holders on a pro-rata basis
based on their purchase of the Securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, a
Registration Statement registering for resale all of the Initial Shares is not
declared effective by the Commission by the Effectiveness Date of the Initial
Registration Statement, or (v) all of the Registrable Securities are not
registered for resale pursuant to one or more effective Registration Statements
within 120 days of the date permitted by the Commission under Rule 415, or (vi)
after the effective date of a Registration Statement, such Registration
Statement ceases for any reason to remain continuously effective
as to all Registrable Securities included in such Registration
Statement, or the Holders are otherwise not permitted to utilize the
Prospectus therein to resell such Registrable
-4-
Securities, for more than
30 consecutive calendar days or more than an aggregate of 45 calendar days
(which need not be consecutive calendar days) during any 12-month period, or
(vii) the Company shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public
information requirement under Rule 144 as to the applicable Registrable
Securities (any such failure or breach being referred to as an “Event”,
and for purposes of clauses (i), (iv), (v) and (vii), the date on which such
Event occurs, and for purpose of clause (ii) the date on which such three
Business Day period is exceeded, and for purpose of clause (iii) the date which
such 21 calendar day period is exceeded, and for purpose of clause (vi) the date
on which such 30 or 45 calendar day period, as applicable, is exceeded being
referred to as “Event
Date”), then, in addition to any other rights the Holders may have
hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly
anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been
cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay
to each Holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a
penalty, equal to 1.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for any unregistered Registrable Securities
then held by such Holder; provided,
however,
no liquidated damages shall accrue with respect to any Registrable Securities
which are not timely registered solely and exclusively due to SEC Guidance with
respect to Rule 415. The parties agree that (1) the Company shall not
be liable for liquidated damages under this Agreement with respect to any
unexercised Warrants or Warrant Shares and (2) the maximum aggregate liquidated
damages payable to a Holder under this Agreement shall be 12% of the aggregate
Subscription Amount paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement. If the Company fails to pay any partial liquidated damages
pursuant to this Section in full within seven days after the date payable, the
Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 18% per annum (or such lesser
maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Holder,
accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such
amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. The partial
liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro rata
basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an
Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be
required to cause any Registration Statement to be effective for a period in
excess of 18 months.
3. Registration
Procedures.
In
connection with the Company’s registration obligations hereunder, the Company
shall:
-5-
(a) Not
less than three (3) Business Days prior to the filing of each Registration
Statement and not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the filing of any
related post-effective amendment or any amendment or supplement thereto, the
Company shall (i) furnish to each Holder via email copies of all such documents
proposed to be filed, which documents (other than those incorporated or deemed
to be incorporated by reference) will be subject to the review of such Holders,
and (ii) cause its officers and directors, counsel and independent certified
public accountants to respond to such inquiries as shall be necessary, in the
reasonable opinion of respective counsel to each Holder,
to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act.
The Company shall not file a Registration Statement or any such Prospectus or
any amendments or supplements thereto to which the Holders of a majority of the
Registrable Securities shall reasonably object in good faith, provided that, the
Company is notified of such objection in writing no later than three (3)
Business Days after the Holders have been so furnished copies of a Registration
Statement or one (1) Business Day after the Holders have been so furnished
copies of any related Prospectus or amendments or supplements thereto; and
provided that the Company shall incur no damages set forth in Section 2(b) if
the Holders object to the filing of the Registration Statement; provided, that
the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cure any such objections. Each
Holder agrees to furnish to the Company a completed questionnaire in the form
attached to this Agreement as Annex B (a “Selling Stockholder
Questionnaire”) on a date that is not less than fifteen (15) Business
Days prior to the Filing Date. The Company may omit Registrable
Securities from the Registration Statement held by any Holder that fails to
deliver the fully completed Selling Shareholder Questionnaire to the
Company.
(b) (i)
Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective
amendments, to a Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep a Registration Statement continuously
effective as to the applicable Registrable Securities for the Effectiveness
Period and prepare and file with the Commission such additional Registration
Statements in order to register for resale under the Securities Act all of the
Registrable Securities, (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or
supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement (subject to the terms of this
Agreement), and, as so supplemented or amended, to be filed pursuant to Rule
424, (iii) respond as promptly as reasonably possible to any comments received
from the Commission with respect to a Registration Statement or any amendment
thereto and provide as promptly as reasonably possible to the Holders true and
complete copies of all correspondence from and to the Commission relating to a
Registration Statement (provided that, the Company may excise any information
contained therein which would constitute material non-public information as to
any Holder which has not executed a confidentiality agreement with the Company),
and (iv) comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities
Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable
Securities covered by a Registration Statement during the applicable period in
accordance (subject to the terms of this Agreement) with the intended methods of
disposition by the Holders thereof set forth in such Registration Statement as
so amended or in such Prospectus as so supplemented.
(c) If
during the Effectiveness Period, the number of Registrable Securities at any
time exceeds 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock then registered in a
Registration Statement, then the Company shall file as soon as reasonably
practicable, but in any case prior to the applicable Filing Date, an additional
Registration Statement covering the resale by the Holders of not less than the
number of such Registrable Securities.
-6-
(d) Notify
the Holders of Registrable Securities to be sold (which notice shall, pursuant
to clauses (iii) through (vi) hereof, be accompanied by an instruction to
suspend the use
of the Prospectus until the requisite changes have been made) as promptly as
reasonably possible (and, in the case of (i)(A) below, not less than one
Business Day prior to such filing) and (if requested by any such Person) confirm
such notice in writing no later than one Business Day following the day (i)(A)
when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to a
Registration Statement is proposed to be filed, (B) when the Commission notifies
the Company whether there will be a “review” of such Registration Statement and
whenever the Commission comments in writing on such Registration Statement, and
(C) with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment,
when the same has become effective, (ii) of any request by the Commission or any
other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to a
Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information, (iii) of the
issuance by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority
of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement
covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or the initiation of any
Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption
from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any
jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such
purpose, (v) of the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes the
financial statements included in a Registration Statement ineligible for
inclusion therein or any statement made in a Registration Statement or
Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by
reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to a
Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of a
Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and
(vi) of the occurrence or existence of any pending corporate development with
respect to the Company that the Company believes may be material and that, in
the determination of the Company, makes it not in the best interest of the
Company to allow continued availability of a Registration Statement or
Prospectus, provided that, any and all of such information shall remain
confidential to each Holder until such information otherwise becomes public,
unless disclosure by a Holder is required by law; provided, further, that
notwithstanding each Holder’s agreement to keep such information confidential,
each such Holder makes no acknowledgement that any such information is material,
non-public information.
(e) Use
its best efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued, obtain the withdrawal
of (i) any order stopping or suspending the effectiveness of a Registration
Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from
qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any
jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable moment.
(f) Furnish
to each Holder, without charge, at least one conformed copy of each such
Registration Statement and each amendment thereto, including financial
statements and schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated therein by reference to the extent requested by such Person, and
all exhibits to the extent requested
by such Person (including those previously furnished or incorporated by
reference) promptly after the filing of such documents with the Commission;
provided, that any such item which is available on the XXXXX system need not be
furnished in physical form.
-7-
(g) Subject
to the terms of this Agreement, the Company hereby consents to the use of such
Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling
Holders in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities
covered by such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, except after
the giving of any notice pursuant to Section 3(d).
(h)
The Company shall cooperate with any broker-dealer through which a Holder
proposes to resell its Registrable Securities in effecting a filing with the
FINRA Corporate Financing Department pursuant to NASD Rule 2710, as requested by
any such Holder, and the Company shall pay the filing fee required by such
filing within two (2) Business Days of request therefor, not to exceed
$5,000.
(i) Prior
to any resale of Registrable Securities by a Holder, use its commercially
reasonable efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders
in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from the
Registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for the resale by
the Holder under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within
the United States as any Holder reasonably requests in writing, to keep each
registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the
Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things reasonably
necessary to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable
Securities covered by each Registration Statement; provided, that, the Company
shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction
where it is not then so qualified, subject the Company to any material tax in
any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or file a general consent
to service of process in any such jurisdiction.
(j) If
requested by a Holder, cooperate with such Holders to facilitate the timely
preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to
be delivered to a transferee pursuant to a Registration Statement, which
certificates shall be free, to the extent permitted by the Purchase Agreement
and applicable securities laws, of all restrictive legends, and to enable such
Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names
as any such Holder may request.
(k) Upon
the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 3(d), as promptly as
reasonably possible under the circumstances taking into account the Company’s
good faith assessment of any adverse consequences to the Company and its
stockholders of the premature disclosure of such event, prepare a supplement or
amendment, including a post-effective amendment, to a Registration Statement or
a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to
be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document so
that, as thereafter delivered, neither a Registration Statement nor such
Prospectus will 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, in light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading. If the Company notifies the Holders in accordance with
clauses (iii) through (vi) of Section 3(d) above to suspend the use of any
Prospectus until the requisite changes to such Prospectus have been made, then
the Holders shall suspend use of such Prospectus. The Company will
use its best efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed as
promptly as is practicable. The Company shall be entitled to exercise
its right under this Section 3(k) to suspend the availability of a Registration
Statement and Prospectus, subject to the payment of partial liquidated damages
otherwise required pursuant to Section 2(b), for a period not to exceed 60
calendar days (which need not be consecutive days) in any 12 month
period.
-8-
(l) Comply
with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission.
(m) The
Company may require each selling Holder to furnish to the Company a certified
statement as to the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such
Holder and, if required by the Commission, the natural persons thereof that have
voting and dispositive control over the shares. During any periods that the
Company is unable to meet its obligations hereunder with respect to the
registration of the Registrable Securities solely because any Holder fails to
furnish such information within three Business Days of the Company’s request,
any liquidated damages that are accruing at such time as to such Holder only
shall be tolled and any Event that may otherwise occur solely because of such
delay shall be suspended as to such Holder only, until such information is
delivered to the Company.
4. Registration
Expenses. All fees and expenses incident to the performance of or
compliance with this Agreement by the Company shall be borne by the Company
whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration
Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing sentence shall
include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including,
without limitation, fees and expenses of the Company’s counsel and independent
registered public accountants) (A) with respect to filings made with the
Commission, (B) with respect to filings required to be made with any Trading
Market on which the Common Stock is then listed for trading, (C) in compliance
with applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws reasonably agreed to by the
Company in writing (including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company in connection with Blue Sky qualifications or exemptions
of the Registrable Securities) and (D) if not previously paid by the Company in
connection with an Issuer Filing, with respect to any filing that may be
required to be made by any broker through which a Holder intends to make sales
of Registrable Securities with the FINRA pursuant to NASD Rule 2710, so long as
the broker is receiving no more than a customary brokerage commission in
connection with such sale, (ii) printing expenses (including, without
limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities), (iii)
messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (iv) fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company, (v) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Company

retained by the Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, the Company shall be
responsible for all of its internal expenses incurred in connection with the
consummation of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of
its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense
of any annual audit and the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the
listing of the Registrable Securities on any securities exchange as required
hereunder. In no event shall the Company be responsible for any
broker or similar commissions of any Holder or, except to the extent provided
for in the Transaction Documents, any legal fees or other costs of the
Holders.

(a) Indemnification by the
Company. The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this
Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the officers, directors,

Registrable Securities as principal as a result of a pledge or any failure to
perform under a margin call of Common Stock), investment advisors and employees
(and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding
such titles, notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of each of

controlling Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively,
“Losses”), as
incurred, arising out of or relating to (1) any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement, any
Prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto
or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission
or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus or
supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made)
not misleading or (2) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law, or any rule or
regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations
under this Agreement, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that (i)
such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding
such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use
therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder or such
Holder’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was
reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Holder expressly for use in a
Registration Statement, such Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement
thereto (it being understood that the Holder has approved Annex A hereto for
this purpose) or (ii) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type
specified in Section 3(d)(iii)-(vi), the use by such Holder of an outdated or
defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing that
the Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder
of the Advice contemplated in Section 6(d). The Company shall notify
the Holders promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding
arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement of which the Company is aware.
-10-
(b) Indemnification by
Holders. Each Holder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each Person
who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act
and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or
employees of such controlling Persons, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, to the extent arising
out of or based solely upon: (x) such Holder’s failure to comply with the
prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act or (y) any untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration
Statement, any Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any
preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged
omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make

that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information so
furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company specifically for inclusion in
such Registration Statement or such Prospectus or (ii) to the extent that such
information relates to such Holder’s proposed method of distribution of
Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by

of an event of the type specified in Section 3(d)(iii)-(vi), the use by such
Holder of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has notified

the receipt by such Holder of the Advice contemplated in Section 6(d). In no
event shall the liability of any selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount
than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale
of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification
obligation.
(c) Conduct of Indemnification
Proceedings. If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any
Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”),
such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is
sought (the “Indemnifying Party”)
in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the
defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to
the Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in
connection with defense thereof; provided, that, the failure of any Indemnified
Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its
obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the
extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
(which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such
failure shall have prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.
An
Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such
Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses
of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties
unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such
fees and expenses, (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to
assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding, or (3) the named
parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both
such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and counsel to the
Indemnified Party shall reasonably believe that a material conflict of interest
is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party
and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies
the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at
the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the
right to assume the defense thereof and the reasonable fees and expenses of no
more than one separate counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying
Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement
of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No Indemnifying Party shall,
without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any
settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party
is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such
Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of
such Proceeding.
-11-
Subject
to the terms of this Agreement, all reasonable fees and expenses of the
Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred
in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a
manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified
Party, as incurred, within ten Business Days of written notice thereof to the
Indemnifying Party; provided, that, the Indemnified Party shall promptly
reimburse the Indemnifying Party for that portion of such fees and expenses
applicable to such actions for which such Indemnified Party is judicially
determined not to be entitled to indemnification hereunder.
(d) Contribution. If the
indemnification under Section 5(a) or 5(b) is unavailable to an Indemnified
Party or insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless for any Losses, then
each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnified Party, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the
actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying
Party and Indemnified Party 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 or omission or alleged omission of a material fact,
has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such
Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party
as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations
set forth in this Agreement, any reasonable attorneys’ or other fees or expenses
incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such
party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the
indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in
accordance with its terms.
The
parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 5(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. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(d), no
Holder shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess
of the amount by which the net proceeds actually received by such Holder from
the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the
amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by
reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission.
-12-
The
indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition
to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified
Parties.
6. Miscellaneous.
(a) Remedies. In
the event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder of any of their respective
obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the Company, as the case may
be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and
under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, shall be entitled to
specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company
and each Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate
compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the
provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any
action for specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall not assert
or shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
(b) No Piggyback on
Registrations; Prohibition on Filing Other Registration Statements.
Except as set forth on Schedule 6(b)
attached hereto, neither the Company nor any of its security holders (other than
the Holders in such capacity pursuant hereto) may include securities of the
Company in any Registration Statements other than the Registrable
Securities. The Company shall not file any other registration
statements until all Registrable Securities are either (i) registered pursuant
to a Registration Statement that is declared effective by the Commission or (ii)
eligible for sale under Rule 144, without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions;
provided that the Company is in compliance with the current public information
required under Rule 144 as to such Registrable Securities if so required in
order for such Registrable Securities to be eligible for resale under Rule 144;
provided further that, this Section 6(b) shall not prohibit the Company from
filing amendments to registration statements filed prior to the date of this
Agreement nor prohibit the Company from registering stock plans under a Form S-8
(or an equivalent plan); .
(c) Compliance. Each
Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it in connection with sales
of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement.
(d) Discontinued
Disposition. By its acquisition of Registrable Securities,
each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the
occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 3(d)(iii) through (vi),
such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable
Securities under a Registration Statement until it is advised in writing (the
“Advice”) by
the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus (as it may have been
supplemented or amended) may be resumed. The Company will use its
best efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed as promptly
as is practicable. The Company agrees and acknowledges that any
periods during which the Holder is required to discontinue the disposition of
the Registrable Securities hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of
Section 2(b).
-13-
(e) Piggy-Back
Registrations. If, at any time during the Effectiveness Period, there is
not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable
Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the
Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account
or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity
securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the
Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be
issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or
equity securities issuable in connection with the Company’s stock option or
other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall deliver to each Holder a
written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen days after the date
of the delivery of such notice, any such Holder shall so request in writing, the
Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such
Registrable Securities such Holder requests to be registered; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be required to register any Registrable Securities pursuant to
this Section 6(e) that are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated
by the Commission pursuant to the Securities Act or that are the subject of a
then effective Registration Statement.
(f) Amendments and
Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of
this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or
consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the
same shall be in writing and signed by the Company and the Holders of 67% or
more of the then outstanding Registrable Securities (including, for this purpose
any Registrable Securities issuable upon exercise or conversion of any
Security). If a Registration Statement does not register all of the
Registrable Securities pursuant to a waiver or amendment done in compliance with
the previous sentence, then the number of Registrable Securities to be
registered for each Holder shall be reduced pro rata among all Holders and each
Holder shall have the right to designate which of its Registrable Securities
shall be omitted from such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect
to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of a Holder or some Holders
and that does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders may
be given by such Holder or Holders of all of the Registrable Securities to which
such waiver or consent relates; provided, however, that the
provisions of this sentence may not be amended, modified, or supplemented except
in accordance with the provisions of the first sentence of this
Section 6(f).
(g) Notices. Any and all
notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be
provided hereunder shall be delivered as set forth in the Purchase
Agreement.
(h) Successors and
Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon
the successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties and shall inure to
the benefit of each Holder. The Company may not assign (except by merger) its
rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of all of the Holders of the then outstanding
Registrable Securities. Each Holder may assign their respective rights hereunder
in the manner and to the Persons as permitted under the Purchase
Agreement.
-14-
(i) No Inconsistent
Agreements. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has entered,
as of the date hereof, nor shall the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on or
after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to its
securities, that would have the effect of impairing the rights granted to the
Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions
hereof. Except as set forth on Schedule 6(i),
neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has previously entered into any
agreement granting any registration rights with respect to any of its securities
to any Person that have not been satisfied in full.
(j) Execution and
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts,
all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement
and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and
delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not
sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is
delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format
data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the
party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same
force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original
thereof.
(k) Governing
Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity,
enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be determined in
accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
(l) Cumulative Remedies.
The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any other
remedies provided by law.
(m) Severability. If any
term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the
remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein
shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired
or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable
efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or
substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision,
covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the
intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be
hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.
(n) Headings. The
headings in this Agreement are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of
the Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions
hereof.
-15-
(o) Independent Nature of
Holders’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Holder hereunder
are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Holder hereunder,
and no Holder shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the
obligations of any other Holder hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any
other agreement or document delivered
at any closing, and no action taken by any Holder pursuant hereto or thereto,
shall be deemed to constitute the Holders as a partnership, an association, a
joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the
Holders are in any way acting in concert with respect to such obligations or the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Holder shall be entitled to
protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising
out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Holder to be
joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such
purpose.

Annex A
Plan of
Distribution
Each
Selling Stockholder (the “Selling
Stockholders”) of the common stock and any of their pledgees, assignees
and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their
shares of common stock on the [principal Trading Market] or any other stock
exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in
private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated
prices. A Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the
following methods when selling shares:
|
·
|
ordinary
brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer
solicits purchasers;
|
|
·
|
block
trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent
but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to
facilitate the transaction;
|
|
·
|
purchases
by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its
account;
|
|
·
|
an
exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable
exchange;
|
|
·
|
privately
negotiated transactions;
|
|
·
|
settlement
of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration
statement of which this prospectus is a
part;
|
|
·
|
broker-dealers
may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such
shares at a stipulated price per
share;
|
|
·
|
through
the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions,
whether through an options exchange or
otherwise;
|
|
·
|
a
combination of any such methods of sale;
or
|
|
·
|
any
other method permitted pursuant to applicable
law.
|
The
Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), if
available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers
engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to
participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or
discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent
for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated,
but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an
agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission
in compliance with FINRA NASD Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal
transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with NASD
IM-2440.
-19-
In
connection with the sale of the common stock or interests therein, the Selling
Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other
financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common
stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling
Stockholders may also sell shares of the common stock short and deliver these
securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common
stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The
Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with
broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more
derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other
financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such
broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this
prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such
transaction).
The
Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in
selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the
Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any
commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the
resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting
commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling
Stockholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral
agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to
distribute the Common Stock. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees,
commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent
(8%).
The
Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company
incident to the registration of the shares. The Company has agreed to
indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
Because
Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of
the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements
of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition, any
securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule
144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this
prospectus. There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in
connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the Selling
Stockholders.
We agreed
to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the
shares may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and
without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule
144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the
current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other
rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the shares have been sold pursuant to this
prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar
effect. The resale shares will be sold only through registered or
licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws.
In addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not be sold unless they
have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an
exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is
complied with.
-20-
Under
applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in
the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market
making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted
period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the
distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject
to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and
sales of shares of the common stock by the Selling Stockholders or any other
person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the
Selling Stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of
this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including
by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).
