(a) Prepare and file with the SEC on or prior to the Demand Registration Date or Shelf Filing Date, as applicable, a Registration Statement as prescribed by Section 2, 3 or 4, and use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective as provided herein, provided that, as far in advance as practical before filing any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company shall furnish to and afford AcquisitionCo, one special counsel for AcquisitionCo (“AcquisitionCo Counsel”) and the managing underwriters, if any, a reasonable opportunity to review copies of all such documents (including copies of any documents to be incorporated by reference therein and all exhibits thereto) proposed to be filed.

The Company shall not file any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto in respect of which AcquisitionCo must be afforded an opportunity to review prior to the filing of such document, if AcquisitionCo, AcquisitionCo Counsel, or the managing underwriters, if any, shall reasonably object.

The Company shall be deemed not to have used its best efforts to keep a Registration Statement effective during the Applicable Period if it voluntarily takes any action that would result in AcquisitionCo not being able to sell such Registrable Interest during that period unless such action is required by applicable law.

(c) Notify AcquisitionCo, AcquisitionCo Counsel and the managing underwriters, if any, promptly (but in any event within two Business Days), and confirm such

(d) Use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of a Prospectus or suspending the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Interest for sale in any jurisdiction, and, if any such order is issued, to use its best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest possible moment.

(a) The Company agrees, to the full extent permitted by law, to indemnify and hold harmless AcquisitionCo, each Person, if any, who controls AcquisitionCo within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, each member of the board of managers of AcquisitionCo and each officer of AcquisitionCo (each an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages (including any and all investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted), to which they, or any of them, may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, liabilities, expenses or damages arise out of or are based on any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or any preliminary prospectus, or the omission or alleged omission to state in such a document a material fact required to be stated in it or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, provided that (i) an Indemnified Person will not be entitled to any such indemnification hereunder to the extent that such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage arises from and is based on an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance on and in conformity with information relating to AcquisitionCo furnished in writing to the Company by an Indemnified Person expressly for inclusion therein and (ii) the foregoing indemnity with respect to any untrue statement contained in or omission from a preliminary prospectus or prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Person if it is finally judicially determined that (A) such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense relates solely to such untrue statement of material fact contained in, or such omission of a material fact from, such preliminary prospectus or prospectus and AcquisitionCo or any underwriter participating in the offering failed to deliver a copy of the final prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto to such person at or prior to the confirmation of the sale of any Registrable Interest to such person and (B) the untrue statement or omission of a material fact contained in such preliminary prospectus or prospectus was corrected in the final prospectus or any such amendment or supplement.

- 12 -

(b) AcquisitionCo will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, each member of the board of managers of the Company and each officer of the Company to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to AcquisitionCo, but only insofar as losses, claims, liabilities, expenses or damages arise out of or are based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance on and in conformity with information relating to AcquisitionCo furnished in writing to the Company by AcquisitionCo expressly for use in any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or any preliminary prospectus. The liability of AcquisitionCo under this paragraph shall in no event exceed the net proceeds received by AcquisitionCo from sales of the Registrable Interest giving rise to such obligations.

(c) Any party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under this Section 8 will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, enclosing a copy of all papers served, but the omission so to notify such indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party under the foregoing provisions of this Section 8 unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses by the indemnifying party. If any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of its commencement, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it elects by delivering written notice to the indemnified party promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the indemnified party, to assume the defense of the action, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, unless, in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified party, a conflict of interest between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party exists with respect to such claim. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense, the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred except as provided below and except for the reasonable costs of investigation subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense. The indemnified party will have the right to employ its own counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel will be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (2) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (3) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action or (4) the indemnified party has assumed control of the defense but fails to prosecute vigorously and diligently the defense, then in each of such cases the fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties. The indemnifying party shall be deemed to have waived its right to dispute its liability to the indemnified party under this Section 8(c) with respect to any third party claim as to which it elects to control the defense. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the

- 13 -

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 one time for all such indemnified party or parties. All such fees, disbursements and other charges will be reimbursed by the indemnifying party promptly as they are incurred. No indemnifying party shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement without the consent of the indemnified party, which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. An indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld).

(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 8 is applicable in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be unavailable from the Company or AcquisitionCo, the Company and AcquisitionCo will contribute to the total losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages (including any investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted, but after deducting any contribution received by the Company from Persons other than AcquisitionCo, such as Persons who control the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, officers of the Company and members of the Company’s board of managers, who also may be liable for contributions) to which the Company and AcquisitionCo may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and AcquisitionCo, on the other, and, if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law or indemnification is not available as a result of the indemnifying party not having received notice as provided in this Section 8, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to above but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and AcquisitionCo, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and AcquisitionCo, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (i) the total proceeds from the original issuance of the Registrable Interest (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and (ii) the net proceeds received by AcquisitionCo upon the sale of the Registrable Interest giving rise to such indemnification obligation. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and of AcquisitionCo, on the other hand, 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 or AcquisitionCo and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and AcquisitionCo agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 8(d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, for purpose of this Section 8(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), AcquisitionCo shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which proceeds received by AcquisitionCo from sales of Registrable Interest exceeds the amount of any damages that

- 14 -

AcquisitionCo has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, and no Person found 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. For purposes of this Section 8(d), any Person who controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of the Securities Act will have the same rights to contribution as that party, and the respective officers, directors, managers, partners, members, employees, representatives and agents of any party to this Agreement will have the same rights to contribution as such party, subject in each case to the provisions hereof. Any party entitled to contribution, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made under this Section 8(d), will notify any such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission so to notify will not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have under this Section 8(d). No party will be liable for contribution with respect to any action or claim settled without its written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld).

(e) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 7 will be in addition to any liability which the indemnifying persons may otherwise have to the indemnified persons referred to above.

9. Covenants Relating to Rule 144. So long as AcquisitionCo holds any Registrable Interest and the Company is required to file reports in compliance with either Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will comply with all rules and regulations of the Commission applicable in connection with the use of Rule 144 and take such other actions and furnish AcqusitionCo with such other information as AcquistionCo may request in order to avail itself of such rule or any other rule or regulation of the Commission allowing a holder to sell any Registrable Interests without registration, and will, at the Company’s expense, forthwith upon the request of any holder of Registrable Interests, deliver to such holder a certificate, signed by the Company’s principal financial officer, stating (a) the Company’s name, address and telephone number (including area code), (b) the Company’s Internal Revenue Service identification number, (c) the Company’s Commission file number, (d) the number of shares of each class of securities outstanding as shown by the most recent report or statement published by the Company, and (e) whether the Company has filed the reports required to be filed under the Exchange Act for a period of at least ninety (90) days prior to the date of such certificate and in addition has filed the most recent annual report required to be filed thereunder. So long as AcquisitionCo holds any Registrable Interest and the Company is not required to file reports in compliance with either Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company at its expense will, forthwith upon the written request of the holder of any Registrable Securities, make available adequate current public information with respect to the Company within the meaning of paragraph (c)(2) of Rule 144.

10. Underwritten Registration

If any of the Registrable Interest covered by any Demand Registration or Shelf Registration is to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will manage the offering will be selected by AcquisitionCo and reasonably acceptable to the Company.

11. Miscellaneous

(a) Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company of any of its obligations under this Agreement, AcquisitionCo, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company agree that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss 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 waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

(b) No Existing Agreements. The Company represents and warrants to AcquisitionCo that, other than as provided herein, there is not in effect on the date hereof any agreement by the Company pursuant to which any holders of equity securities of the Company have a right to cause the Company to register or qualify such securities under the Securities Act or any securities or blue sky laws of any jurisdiction.

(c) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company has not entered as of the date hereof, and the Company shall not after the date of this Agreement enter, into any agreement with respect to any of its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to AcquisitionCo in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. The Company has not entered into, and will not enter into, any agreement with respect to any of its securities that grants or will grant to any Person piggy-back rights with respect to a Registration Statement to be filed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Adjustments Affecting Registrable Interest. The Company shall not, directly or indirectly, take any action with respect to the Registrable Interest as a class that would adversely affect the ability of AcquisitionCo to include such Registrable Interest in a registration undertaken pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) 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 Company has obtained the written consent of AcquisitionCo.

(f) Notices. All notices, requests and other communications hereunder to a party shall be in writing and shall be deemed given (a) on the date of delivery, if personally delivered or delivered by facsimile copy (with confirmation), (b) on the first business day following the date of dispatch, if delivered by a nationally recognized next-day courier service, or (c) on the third Business Day following the date of mailing, if mailed by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), in each case to such party at its address or facsimile number set forth below or such other address or number as such party may specify by notice to the other parties.
