“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR UNLESS THE ISSUER RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO IT STATING THAT SUCH SALE OR TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM THE

-20-

REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF SAID ACT.”

(b) In addition, for so long as any restrictions set forth in Section 5.1 remain in effect, such legend or notation shall include the following language:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF A SHAREHOLDER’S AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF [•], 2011, AMONG THE ISSUER AND THE OTHER PARTIES THERETO, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE INSPECTED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER OR OBTAINED FROM THE ISSUER WITHOUT CHARGE.”

(c) The Shareholder agrees that it will, if requested by the Company, deliver at its expense to the Company an opinion of reputable U.S. counsel selected by the Shareholder and reasonably acceptable to the Company, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and counsel for the Company, that any Transfer made, other than in connection with an SEC- registered offering by the Company, does not require registration under the Securities Act.

(d) In connection with any Transfer pursuant to this Article V, the Company shall remove such portion of the legend (or eliminate or terminate such portion of the notation or arrangement) described in Sections 5.2(a) and 5.2(b) as is appropriate under the circumstances. At such time as the Shareholder delivers at its expense to the Company an opinion of reputable U.S. counsel selected by the Shareholder and reasonably acceptable to the Company, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and counsel for the Company, that all of the Shareholder Shares may be freely sold without registration under the Securities Act, the Company agrees that it will promptly after the later of the delivery of such opinion and, in the case of certificated Shareholder Shares, the delivery by the Shareholder to the Company or its transfer agent of a certificate or certificates (in the case of a Transfer, in the proper form for Transfer) representing such Shareholder Shares issued with the legend set forth in Section 5.2(a), deliver or cause to be delivered to the Shareholder a replacement stock certificate or certificates representing such Shareholder Shares that is free from the legend set forth in Section 5.2(a) (or in the case of uncertificated Shareholder Shares, free of any notation or arrangement set forth in Section 5.2(a)). At such time as no restrictions set forth in Section 5.1 remain in effect, the Company agrees that it will, promptly upon the request of the Shareholder and, in the case of certificated Shareholder Shares, the delivery by the Shareholder to the Company or its transfer agent of a certificate or certificates (in the case of a Transfer, in the proper form for Transfer) representing Shareholder Shares issued with the legend set forth in Section 5.2(b), deliver or cause to be delivered to the Shareholder a replacement stock certificate or certificates representing such Shareholder Shares that is free from the legend set forth in Section 5.2(b) (or in the case of uncertificated Shareholder Shares, free of any notation or arrangement set forth in Section 5.2(b)).

Section 5.3 Change of Control of the Shareholder Parent.

(a) In the event that, during the period from the Closing Date until the occurrence of a Board Right Termination Event, a Change of Control with respect to the Shareholder Parent is consummated that results from a Shareholder Parent Change of Control Event, to the extent permitted by Irish law, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase (by way of redemption or otherwise) from the Shareholder all, but not less than all, of the Shareholder Shares held by the Shareholder on the date of consummation of such Change of Control. The Shareholder Parent shall give the Company written notice of the occurrence of such Change of Control within ten (10) Business Days after its consummation and the Company’s right under this Section 5.3 shall be exercisable by delivering a written election notice to the Shareholder (such notice, an “Election Notice”) within ten (10) Business Days after the date of receipt by the Company of such notice from the Shareholder Parent (or at an earlier time following the consummation of such Change of Control). The delivery of an Election Notice by the Company shall irrevocably bind the Company to purchase, and the Shareholder to sell, all of the Shareholder Shares held by the Shareholder on the date of consummation of such Change of Control in accordance with this Section 5.3. In the event that the Company fails to deliver an Election Notice within such ten (10) Business Day period following notice by the Shareholder Parent of the consummation of the Change of Control, the Company shall be deemed to have irrevocably elected not to exercise its right to purchase such Shareholder Shares in respect of such Change of Control pursuant to this Section 5.3.

(b) The purchase price for the Shareholder Shares shall equal the product of (i) the aggregate number of Shareholder Shares held by the Shareholder on the date of consummation of such Change of Control multiplied by (ii) the Market Value of each such Shareholder Share, determined as at the date of consummation of such Change of Control (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”).

(c) Subject to the receipt by the parties hereto of all necessary shareholder, antitrust and other governmental, regulatory and third party approvals, the closing of the purchase of the Shareholder Shares shall take place at the executive offices of the Company at 10:00 a.m., local time, on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date the Election Notice is delivered to the Shareholder, or on such later Business Day reasonably designated by the Company or the Shareholder, as applicable, in order to permit (i) any necessary antitrust waiting period to expire; (ii) any other necessary governmental, regulatory or third party approvals to be obtained; and (iii) the Shareholder Parent to seek the requisite approval of its shareholders for such sale if and to the extent that the Listing Rules of the Irish Stock Exchange (as in effect at such time) would require such approval. At the closing, the Shareholder shall deliver to the Company the share certificate or certificates representing all certificated Shareholder Shares held by the Shareholder on the date of consummation of such Change of Control, in exchange for the payment in full of the Change of Control Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts that shall be designated by the Shareholder in writing to the Company at least two (2) Business Days prior to such closing.

(a) Until the Registration Rights Termination Date, in connection with any Transfer of Registrable Shares permitted under Section 5.1(b), the Shareholder shall, and in connection with any other Transfer of Registrable Shares after the Transfer Limitation Period, the Shareholder may, request in writing that the Company effect a registration under the Securities Act of all or such part of the Registrable Shares as the Shareholder requests to Transfer, subject in each case to the minimum threshold requirements applicable to such registration pursuant to Section 5.1(b), Section 6.1(b) or Section 6.1(c) (such request, a “Demand Request”) (it being understood that the Demand Request in respect of the marketed underwritten offering to be effected under Section 5.1(b)(i) may be made no sooner than 45 days before the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date, but may be made at any time thereafter). Upon receipt of any Demand Request, the Company shall use reasonable endeavors to file, as promptly as practicable but in any event not later than the date that is thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by the Company of such Demand Request, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, a Registration Statement with the SEC (a “Demand Registration Statement”) covering all such Registrable Shares, in accordance with the method or methods of distribution thereof elected by the Shareholder (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be limited to marketed underwritten registered offerings in the case of Transfers under Section 5.1(b)). Each Demand Request shall specify the aggregate number of Registrable Shares to be registered and the intended method or methods of distribution thereof. Any registration requested by the Shareholder under this Section 6.1(a), Section 6.1(c) or Section 6.1(e) is referred to in this Agreement as a “Demand Registration.”

(b) The Shareholder shall be entitled to initiate no more than six (6) Demand Registrations, including Shelf Underwritten Offerings, in the aggregate; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect such Demand Registration (i) unless the number of Registrable Shares requested to be registered by the Shareholder is at least five million (5,000,000) (or the equivalent thereof as of the Closing Date in the event of any stock splits); and (ii) during the ninety (90) calendar day period following the effective date of a Registration Statement pursuant to any other Demand Registration. No request for registration shall count for the purposes of the limitations in this Section 6.1(b) if (v) the Shareholder determines in good faith to withdraw (prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement relating to such request) the proposed registration, upon written notice to the Company, due to marketing conditions or regulatory reasons prior to the execution of an underwriting agreement or purchase agreement relating to such request; provided that the Shareholder reimburses the Company for all Registration Expenses incurred in good faith by the Company in connection with such Demand Registration prior to the date of such withdrawal, (w) the Registration Statement relating to a Demand Request is not declared effective within one hundred eighty (180) calendar days after the date such Registration Statement is filed with the SEC (other than by reason of the Shareholder having refused to proceed or a misrepresentation or an omission by the Shareholder), (x) prior to the sale of at least fifty percent (50%) of the Registrable Shares included in the applicable registration relating to a Demand Request, such registration is

-23-

adversely affected by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other governmental agency or court for any reason and the Company fails to have such stop order, injunction, or other order or requirement removed, withdrawn or resolved to the reasonable satisfaction of the Shareholder within thirty (30) calendar days after the date of such order, (y) the Shareholder withdraws its request in the circumstances described in Section 6.1(f) or (z) the conditions to closing specified in any underwriting agreement or purchase agreement entered into in connection with the registration relating to such request are not satisfied as a result of a default or breach thereunder by the Company that proximately and primarily caused the failure of such conditions.

(c) Following the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company shall use reasonable endeavors to qualify for registration on Form S-3 or any comparable or successor form or forms or any similar short-form registration (a “Short-Form Registration”), and, if requested by the Shareholder and available to the Company, such Short-Form Registration shall be a “shelf” registration statement providing for the registration, and the sale on a continuous or delayed basis, of the Registrable Shares, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or otherwise (a “Shelf Registration Statement”). Following the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date and prior to the Registration Rights Termination Date, the Shareholder may request no more than five (5) Short-Form Registrations, if available to the Company, with respect to the Registrable Shares, which shall count toward the six (6) Demand Registrations to which the Shareholder is entitled pursuant to Section 6.1(b); provided that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any Short-Form Registration pursuant to this Section 6.1(c), (x) unless the number of Registrable Shares requested to be registered by the Shareholder is at least five million (5,000,000) (or the equivalent thereof as of the Closing Date in the event of any stock splits) and (y) during the ninety (90) calendar day period following the effective date of a Registration Statement pursuant to any other Demand Registration, including any Shelf Registration Statement. In no event shall the Company be obligated to effect any shelf registration other than pursuant to a Short-Form Registration. If any Demand Registration is proposed to be a Short-Form Registration and an underwritten offering, if the managing underwriter(s) shall advise the Company and the Shareholder that, in its good faith opinion, it is of material importance to the success of such proposed offering to include in such Registration Statement information not required to be included in a Short-Form Registration, then the Company shall supplement the Short-Form Registration as reasonably requested by such managing underwriter(s).

(d) Upon filing any Short-Form Registration, the Company shall use reasonable endeavors to keep such Short-Form Registration effective with the SEC, to re-file such Short-Form Registration upon its expiration, and to cooperate in any shelf take-down, whether or not underwritten, by amending or supplementing the Prospectus related to such Short-Form Registration as may be reasonably requested by the Shareholder, or as otherwise required, until the earlier of (i) such time as all Registrable Shares that could be sold in such Short-Form Registration have been sold or are no longer outstanding and (ii) the Registration Rights Termination Date.

(e) To the extent that the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (a “WKSI”) at the time any Demand Request for a Short-Form Registration is submitted to the Company and, pursuant to such Demand Request, the

-24-

Shareholder requests that the Company file a Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall file an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) on Form S-3 (an “Automatic Shelf Registration Statement”) in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder, which covers those Registrable Shares which are requested to be registered. At the written request of the Shareholder, the Company shall pay the registration fee in respect of a take-down from an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement promptly and, in any event, within one (1) Business Day of receiving such written request. The Company shall use reasonable endeavors to remain a WKSI (and not to become an ineligible issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act)) during the period in which any Automatic Shelf Registration Statement is effective. If, at any time following the filing of an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement when the Company is required to re-evaluate its WKSI status, the Company determines that it is not a WKSI, the Company shall use reasonable endeavors to post-effectively amend the Automatic Shelf Registration Statement to a Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 or file a new Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3, have such Shelf Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC and keep such Registration Statement effective during the period in which such Short-Form Registration is required to be kept effective in accordance with Section 6.1(d).

(f) If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement, including a Shelf Registration Statement, with respect to a Demand Registration, would require the Company to make a public disclosure of material non-public information, which disclosure the Company determines in good faith (after consultation with external legal counsel), (i) would be required to be made at such time in any Registration Statement so that such Registration Statement would not be materially misleading; (ii) would not be required to be made at such time but for the filing, effectiveness or continued use of such Registration Statement; and (iii) would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the Company or its business or on the Company’s ability to effect a reasonably imminent material proposed acquisition, disposition, financing, reorganization, recapitalization or similar transaction, then the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such determination to the Shareholder, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend the use of, as applicable, such Registration Statement or a Prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus; provided, however, that the Company shall not be permitted to do so (x) on more than one (1) occasion in any six (6) month period or (y) for any single period of time in excess of sixty (60) days (in any such case, a “Blackout Period”). In the event that the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Shareholder agrees to suspend, promptly upon receipt of the notice referred to above, the use of any Prospectus relating to such Demand Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Shares. If the Company so delays the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend the use of, as applicable, such Registration Statement or a Prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus, the Shareholder shall be entitled to withdraw such request and, if such request is withdrawn, such registration request shall not count for the purposes of the limitations set forth in Section 6.1(b) or Section 6.1(c).

(g) If a Demand Request provides that the Shareholder intends the Registrable Shares covered thereby shall be distributed by means of an underwritten offering, or if the Shareholder delivers to the Company a Take-Down Notice, the lead underwriter to administer the offering shall be chosen by the Shareholder, subject to the prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, of the Company.

-25-

(h) The Company shall not include in any Demand Registration pursuant to this Section 6.1 any securities that are not Registrable Shares without the prior written consent of the Shareholder.

(i) The Shareholder shall have the right to notify the Company prior to the effectiveness of a Registration Statement relating to a Demand Registration that such Registration Statement be abandoned or withdrawn, in which event the Company shall promptly abandon or withdraw such Registration Statement.

Section 6.2 Piggy-Back Registration.

(a) If, at any time following the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company proposes or is required to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of securities of the Company of the same class as the Registrable Shares (such securities “Similar Securities”), whether or not for sale for its own account (including a Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3, but excluding a Registration Statement that is (i) solely in connection with a Special Registration or (ii) pursuant to a Demand Registration in accordance with Section 6.1, the Company shall give written notice as promptly as practicable, but not later than thirty (30) calendar days prior to the anticipated date of filing of such Registration Statement, to the Shareholder of its intention to effect such registration and shall include in such registration all Registrable Shares with respect to which the Company has received written notice from the Shareholder for inclusion therein within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date of the Company’s notice (a “Piggyback Registration”). In the event that the Shareholder makes such written request, the Shareholder may withdraw its Registrable Shares from such Piggyback Registration by giving written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter, if any, at any time at least two (2) Business Days prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement relating to such Piggyback Registration. The Company may terminate or withdraw any Piggyback Registration under this Section 6.2(a), whether or not the Shareholder has elected to include Registrable Shares in such registration; provided, however, that, if the Shareholder has elected to include Registrable Shares in such registration and the Company terminates or withdraws such Piggyback Registration after the date on which the applicable Registration Statement is declared effective, the Company shall reimburse the Shareholder for all Selling Expenses paid by the Shareholder in respect of Registrable Shares included therein which are unsold on the date of such withdrawal or termination. No Piggyback Registration shall count towards the number of Demand Registrations to which the Shareholder is entitled under Section 6.1(b) or Section 6.1(c).

(b) If a Piggyback Registration under Section 6.2(a) is proposed to be underwritten, the Company shall so advise the Shareholder as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 6.2(a). In such event, the lead underwriter to administer the offering shall be chosen by the Company, subject to the prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, of the Shareholder.

(c) The Company shall pay all expenses (subject to and in accordance with Section 6.5) in connection with any Piggyback Registration, whether or not any registration or prospectus becomes effective or final or is terminated or withdrawn by the Company.

-26-

(d) If any Similar Securities are to be sold in an underwritten primary offering on behalf of the Company, the Shareholder may include all the Registrable Shares it requests in such Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as such Similar Securities included therein; provided, however, that if such offering involves a firm commitment underwritten offering and the managing underwriter(s) of such offering advises the Company and the Shareholder in writing that, in its good faith opinion, the total number or dollar amount of Similar Securities proposed to be sold in such offering and Registrable Shares requested by the Shareholder to be included therein, in the aggregate, exceeds the largest number or dollar amount of securities that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), the Company shall include in such registration or prospectus only such number of securities that in the good faith opinion of such underwriter(s) can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), which securities shall be included in the following order of priority:

(i) first, the securities that the Company proposes to sell;

(ii) second, the Registrable Shares requested to be included by the Shareholder and any Similar Securities requested to be included by any other Persons exercising their contractual rights to piggyback registration, pro rata (if applicable) on the basis of the aggregate number of securities so requested to be included therein; and

(iii) third, any securities requested to be included therein by any other Persons (other than the Company and the Shareholder and other Persons with restricted piggyback registration rights), allocated among such Persons in such manner as the Company may determine.

(e) If the securities to be registered pursuant to this Section 6.2 are to be sold in an underwritten secondary offering on behalf of holders of Similar Securities, the Shareholder may include all Registrable Shares requested to be included in such registration in such offering on the same terms and conditions as any Similar Securities included therein; provided, however, that if the managing underwriter(s) of such offering advises the Company and the Shareholder in writing that, in its good faith opinion, the total number or dollar amount of securities to be included therein exceeds the largest number or dollar amount of securities that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), the Company shall include in such registration only such number of securities that in the reasonable opinion of such underwriter(s) can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), which securities shall be so included in the following order of priority:

(i) first, the Similar Securities requested to be included therein by the holders exercising their contractual rights to demand such registration and the Registrable Shares requested to be included by the Shareholder, pro rata (if applicable) on the basis of the aggregate number of securities so requested to be included therein by each such holder; and

-27-

(ii) second, any Similar Securities requested to be included therein by the Company or any other Person not exercising a contractual right to demand registration, allocated among such Persons in such manner as the Company may determine.

Section 6.3 Termination of Registration Obligation.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the obligation of the Company to register Registrable Shares pursuant to this Article VI and maintain the effectiveness of any Demand Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 6.2 shall terminate on the earliest of (a) the date on which reputable U.S. counsel shall have delivered an opinion, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Shareholder, that all remaining Shareholder Shares Beneficially Owned by the Shareholder may be freely sold without registration under the Securities Act, including under Rule 144 without being subject to the volume limitations and manner of sale restrictions contained therein, (b) the date that is four (4) months after the first date on which the Shareholder Beneficially Owns Shareholder Shares representing less than the Ownership Threshold and (c) the first date on which the Shareholder Beneficially Owns Shareholder Shares representing less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding Voting Securities (the “Registration Rights Termination Date”).

Section 6.4 Registration Procedures. Subject to Section 6.1(f), whenever the Shareholder shall have requested that any Registrable Shares be registered pursuant to Section 6.1 or Section 6.2, the Company shall use reasonable endeavors to effect, as soon as practicable as provided herein, the registration and sale of such Registrable Shares in accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition thereof, until the Registration Rights Termination Date. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and pursuant thereto, the Company shall, until the Registration Rights Termination Date, cooperate in the sale of such Registrable Shares and shall, as expeditiously as possible:

(a) prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Shares as provided herein, make all required filings with FINRA and, if such Registration Statement is not automatically effective upon filing, use reasonable endeavors to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof; provided, however, that, before filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto (including free writing prospectuses under Rule 433 under the Securities Act, each, a “Free Writing Prospectus”), the Company shall furnish to the Shareholder and the managing underwriter(s), if any, copies of the Registration Statement and all other documents proposed to be filed (including exhibits thereto), including, upon the reasonable request of the Shareholder and to the extent reasonably practicable, all documents that would be incorporated by reference or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, which Registration Statement and documents will be subject to the reasonable review and comment of the Shareholder and its counsel, at the Shareholder’s sole expense. The Company shall not file any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto (including Free Writing Prospectuses) with respect to any registration pursuant to Section 6.1 to which the Shareholder and its counsel or the managing underwriter(s), if any, shall reasonably object, in writing, on a timely basis,

(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement, the Prospectus used in connection therewith (including Free Writing Prospectuses) and Exchange Act reports as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective for a period of (i) with respect to a Registration Statement other than a Shelf Registration Statement, (A) not less than four (4) months, (B) if such Registration Statement relates to an underwritten offering, such longer period as, in the opinion of counsel for the underwriter(s), a Prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales of Registrable Shares by an underwriter or dealer or (C) such shorter period as will terminate when all of the securities covered by such Registration Statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of distribution by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement (but in any event not before the expiration of any longer period required under the Securities Act); or (ii) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the period set forth in Section 6.1(d), and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement;

(f) promptly notify the Shareholder and the managing underwriter(s), if any, at any time when a Prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the occurrence of any event or existence of any fact as a result of which the Prospectus (including any information incorporated by reference therein) included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made, and, as promptly as practicable upon discovery, prepare and furnish to the Shareholder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement or amendment to such Prospectus, or file any other required document, as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to any prospective purchasers of such Registrable Shares, such Prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made;

(g) notify the Shareholder, Shareholder’s counsel and the managing underwriter(s) of any underwritten offering, if any, (i) when the Registration Statement, any pre-effective amendment, the Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or any Free Writing Prospectus has been filed and, with respect to such Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to such Registration Statement or to such Prospectus or for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; and (iv) of the suspension of the qualification of such securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the institution of any proceedings for any such purposes;

-30-

(j) enter into such agreements (including underwriting agreements with customary provisions) and take all such other actions as the Shareholder (if such registration is a Demand Registration) or the managing underwriter(s), if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Shares;

(k) make available for inspection by the Shareholder and Shareholder’s counsel, any managing underwriter(s) participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Shareholder or underwriter(s), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and documents relating to the business of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by the Shareholder or such underwriter(s), attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Shareholder shall, and shall use reasonable endeavors to cause each such underwriter(s), accountant or other agent to (i) enter into a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company; and (ii) minimize the disruption to the Company’s business in connection with the foregoing;

(l) otherwise use reasonable endeavors to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable after the effective date of the Registration Statement, an earnings statement covering the period of at least 12 months beginning with the first day of the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder;

Subject to the limitations on the Company’s ability to delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend the use of, as applicable, a Registration Statement or a Prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus pursuant to Section 6.1(f), the Shareholder agrees that, upon receipt of any written notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 6.4(f), the Shareholder shall promptly discontinue its disposition of Registrable Shares pursuant to any Registration Statement until the Shareholder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 6.4(f). If so directed by the Company, the Shareholder shall deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies, in the Shareholder’s possession of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Shares at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event that the Company shall give any such notice, the period mentioned in Section 6.4(b), as applicable, shall be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when the Shareholder shall have received the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6.4(f).

In the case of any underwritten offering of Registrable Shares registered under a Demand Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 6.1(a), or in the case of a Piggyback Registration under Section 6.2, (i) all Registrable Shares or Similar Securities to be included in such offering or registration, as the case may be, shall be subject to the applicable underwriting agreement with customary terms and neither the Shareholder nor any holder of Similar Securities may participate in such offering or registration unless such Person agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided therein; and (ii) neither the Shareholder nor any holder of Similar Securities may participate in such offering or registration unless such Person completes and executes all questionnaires, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents (other than powers of attorney) reasonably required to be executed in connection therewith, and provides such other information to the Company or the underwriter(s) as may be reasonably requested to offer or register such Person’s Registrable Shares or Similar Securities, as the case may be; provided, however, that (A) the Shareholder shall not be required to make any representations or

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not bear any Selling Expenses in connection with its obligations under this Agreement. All expenses incurred in connection with any “road shows” undertaken pursuant to Section 6.4(n) shall be borne in equal proportion by the Shareholder and the Company.

(b) The Company shall not, however, be required to pay Registration Expenses for any Demand Registration begun pursuant to Section 6.1(a), Section 6.1(c) or Section 6.1(e), the request of which has been subsequently withdrawn by the Shareholder unless the withdrawal is (i) requested under the circumstances described in Section 6.1(f); or (ii) based upon (A) any fact, circumstance, event, change, effect or occurrence that individually or in the aggregate with all other facts or circumstances, events, changes, effects or occurrences has a material adverse effect on the Company or (B) material adverse information concerning the Company that the Company had not publicly disclosed at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to such registration request or that the Company had not otherwise notified, in writing, the Shareholder of at the time of such request.

(a) The Company shall, and it hereby agrees to, (i) indemnify and hold harmless the Shareholder (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, any Shareholder Designee), the Shareholder Parent and each underwriter in any offering or sale of Registrable Shares, and its and their respective Representatives and controlling Persons, if any, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, actions or proceedings (whether commenced or threatened) in respect thereof and expenses (including reasonable fees of counsel) (collectively, “Claims”) to which each such indemnified party may become subject, insofar as such Claims (including any amounts paid in settlement reached in accordance with the requirements for consent as provided herein), or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, or any preliminary or final Prospectus (including any Free Writing Prospectus incorporated into such Registration Statement) contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any preliminary or final Prospectus (including any Free Writing Prospectus incorporated into such Registration Statement, in light of the circumstances in which they were made), not misleading; and (ii) reimburse periodically upon demand such indemnified party for any legal or other out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such Claims; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any such indemnified party in any such case to the extent that any such Claims arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement, or preliminary or final Prospectus (including any Free Writing Prospectus incorporated into such Registration Statement), or amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by the Shareholder or any Representative of the Shareholder expressly for use therein, or if the Shareholder sold securities to the Person alleging such Claims without sending or giving, at or prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a copy of the applicable Prospectus (excluding any documents incorporated by reference therein) or of the applicable Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented (excluding any documents incorporated by reference therein), if the Company had previously furnished copies thereof to the Shareholder and such Prospectus corrected such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement.

(b) The Shareholder shall, and hereby agrees to, (i) indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each underwriter in any offering or sale of Registrable Shares, and its and their respective Representatives and controlling Persons, if any, from and against any Claims to which each such indemnified party may become subject, insofar as such Claims (including any amounts paid in settlement reached in accordance with the requirements for consent as provided herein), or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, or any preliminary or final Prospectus (including any Free Writing Prospectus incorporated into such Registration Statement) contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make

-34-

the statements therein (in the case of any preliminary or final Prospectus (including any Free Writing Prospectus incorporated into such Registration Statement), in light of the circumstances in which they were made), not misleading; and (ii) reimburse periodically upon demand such indemnified party for any legal or other out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such Claims, in each case only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by the Shareholder or any Representative of the Shareholder, expressly for use therein, or if the Shareholder sold securities to the Person alleging such Claims without sending or giving, at or prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a copy of the applicable Prospectus (excluding any documents incorporated by reference therein) or of the applicable Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented (excluding any documents incorporated by reference therein), if the Company had previously furnished copies thereof to the Shareholder and such Prospectus corrected such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement; provided, however, that the liability of the Shareholder hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the Shareholder from Shareholder Shares sold by the Shareholder pursuant to such Registration Statement or Prospectus.

(c) The Shareholder and the Company agree that if, for any reason, the indemnification provisions contemplated by Section 6.6(a) or Section 6.6(b) are unavailable to or are insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Claims referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Claims in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, with respect to statements or omissions that that resulted in such Claims. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or by such indemnified party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. If, however, the allocation in the first sentence of this Section 6.6(c) is not permitted by applicable law, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative faults, but also the relative benefits of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 6.6(c) 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 in the preceding sentences of this Section 6.6(c). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the Claims referred to above shall be deemed to include (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6.7) any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action, proceeding or claim. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Shareholder shall not be liable to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds

-35-

received by the Shareholder from Shareholder Shares sold by the Shareholder pursuant to such Registration Statement or Prospectus.

Section 6.7 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) If an indemnified party shall desire to assert any claim for indemnification provided for under Section 6.6 in respect of, arising out of or involving a Claim against the indemnified party, such indemnified party shall notify the Company or the Shareholder, as the case may be (the “Indemnifying Party”), in writing of such Claim, the amount or the estimated amount of damages sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Claim), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto (a “Claim Notice”) promptly after receipt by such indemnified party of written notice of the Claim; provided, however, that failure to provide a Claim Notice shall not affect the indemnification obligations provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. The indemnified party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after the indemnified party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the indemnified party relating to the Claim; provided, however, that failure to provide any such copies shall not affect the indemnification obligations provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure.

(b) If a Claim is made against an indemnified party, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it so chooses and acknowledges without reservation its obligation to indemnify the indemnified party therefor, to assume the defense thereof with separate counsel selected by the indemnifying party and reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Should the Indemnifying Party so elect to assume the defense of a Claim, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable to the indemnified party for legal expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless the Claim involves potential conflicts of interest or substantially different defenses for the indemnified party and the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the indemnified party shall have the right to participate in defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense (except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence), separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the indemnified party for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense thereof and as otherwise contemplated by the two immediately preceding sentences. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend any Claim, the indemnified party shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnifying Party’s request) the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Claim, and the indemnified party shall use reasonable endeavors to make employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of a Claim, the indemnified party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The Indemnifying Party may pay, settle or compromise a Claim without the written consent of the indemnified party, so long as such

-36-

settlement includes (i) an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability in respect of such Claim, (ii) does not subject the indemnified party to any injunctive relief or other equitable remedy, and (iii) does not include a statement or admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

Section 6.8 Shelf Take-Down.

(a) At any time that a Shelf Registration Statement covering Registrable Shares is effective, if the Shareholder delivers notice (a “Take-Down Notice”) to the Company stating that it intends to effect an underwritten offering of all or part of its Registrable Shares included on the Shelf Registration Statement (a “Shelf Underwritten Offering”), the Company shall amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement or related Prospectus as may be necessary in order to enable such Registrable Shares to be distributed pursuant to the Shelf Underwritten Offering; provided, however, that the Shareholder shall not be entitled to deliver an aggregate of more than three (3) Take-Down Notices in any twelve (12) month period and the Shareholder may not deliver any Take-Down Notice within thirty (30) days after the effective date of any Registration Statement of the Company hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, a Shelf Underwritten Offering shall count against the limit set forth in Section 6.1(b).

(b) In connection with any Shelf Underwritten Offering, in the event that the managing underwriter advises the Company and the Shareholder in writing that, in its good faith opinion, the total number or dollar amount of Registrable Shares requested by the Shareholder to be included therein exceeds the largest number or dollar amount of Registrable Shares that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), the Company shall include in such registration or prospectus only such number of Registrable Shares that in the good faith opinion of such underwriter(s) can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price).

Section 6.9 Rule 144; Rule 144A. The Company covenants that it will use its reasonable endeavors to 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 SEC thereunder, and to take such further action as the Shareholder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Shareholder to sell Registrable Shares without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (i) Rule 144 or Rule 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act; or (ii) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of the Shareholder, the Company will deliver to the Shareholder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements and, if not, the specifics thereof.

Section 6.10 Holdback. In consideration for the Company agreeing to its obligations under this Agreement, the Shareholder agrees, in connection with any underwritten offering made pursuant to a Registration Statement in which the Shareholder has elected to include Registrable Shares, upon the written request of the managing underwriter(s) of such offering, not to effect (other than pursuant to such underwritten offering) any public sale or distribution of Registrable Shares, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A, or make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise Transfer (other than to a

-37-

Permitted Transferee in accordance with Section 5.1(f)(i), any Registrable Shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any other securities of the Company without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter(s) during the Holdback Period. The Company agrees that the Shareholder shall only be bound so long as and to the extent that each other shareholder seeking to exercise registration rights with respect to such offering is similarly bound; provided that a request under this Section 6.10 shall not be effective more than once in any twelve (12) month period.

ARTICLE VII

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 7.1 Termination. Except with respect to the obligations set forth in Section 6.6, and Section 6.7, which shall survive the termination of this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect upon the earlier of (a) the later of (i) the tenth anniversary of the Closing Date; and (ii) the date that is three years after the first date on which the Shareholder shall cease to Beneficially Own Voting Securities representing at least the Ownership Threshold and (b) the consummation of a Change of Control with respect to the Company.

Section 7.2 Injunctive Relief. Each party hereto acknowledges that it would be impossible to determine the amount of damages that would result from any breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement and that the remedy at law for any breach, or threatened breach, of any of such provisions would likely be inadequate and, accordingly, agrees that the other party shall, in addition to any other rights or remedies which it may have, be entitled to such equitable and injunctive relief as may be available from any court of competent jurisdiction to compel specific performance of, or restrain any party from violating, any of such provisions. In connection with any action or proceeding for injunctive relief, each party hereto hereby waives the claim or defense that a remedy at law alone is adequate and agrees, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to have each provision of this Agreement specifically enforced against it, without the necessity of posting bond or other security against it, and consents to the entry of injunctive relief against it enjoining or restraining any breach or threatened breach of such provisions of this Agreement.

Section 7.3 Assignments. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as contemplated by Section 5.1(f), none of the parties may directly or indirectly assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party. Any purported direct or indirect assignment in violation of this Section 7.3 shall be null and void ab initio.

Section 7.4 Amendments; Waiver. No amendment, modification or discharge of this Agreement, and no waiver hereunder, shall be valid or binding unless set forth in writing and duly executed by (i) the Company, where enforcement of the amendment, modification, discharge or waiver is sought against the Company; (ii) the Shareholder, where enforcement of the amendment, modification, discharge or waiver is sought against the Shareholder; or (iii) the Shareholder Parent, where enforcement of the amendment, modification, discharge or waiver is

-38-

sought against the Shareholder Parent. Any such waiver shall constitute a waiver only with respect to the specific matter described in such writing and shall in no way impair the rights of the party granting such waiver in any other respect or at any other time. The waiver by the Company or the Shareholder of a breach of or a default under any of the provisions of this Agreement or the failure to exercise or delay in exercising any right or privilege hereunder, shall not be construed as a waiver of any other breach or default of a similar nature, or as a waiver of any of such provisions, rights or privileges hereunder. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and none is exclusive of any other, or of any rights or remedies that any party may otherwise have at law or in equity.

Section 7.5 Notices. Any notice, request, instruction or other document to be given hereunder by any party to the others shall be in writing and shall be deemed given to a party when (i) delivered to the appropriate address by hand or by nationally recognized overnight courier service; (ii) sent by facsimile with confirmation of transmission by the transmitting equipment; or (iii) received by the addressee, if sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, in each case, to the following addresses or facsimile numbers and marked to the attention of the person (by name or title) designated below, or to such other persons or addresses as may be designated in writing by the party to receive such notice as provided below:
