(c) | notify each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which a prospectus, if applicable, included in such registration statement, as then in effect, (i) no longer meets the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act, or (ii) includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or incomplete in the light of the circumstances then existing, and that offers and sales of Registrable Securities in reliance on any such prospectus included in the Registration Statement must cease. Within five (5) business days of such notice, the Company shall prepare and furnish to such seller a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus used shall meet the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act, or not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or incomplete in the light of the circumstances then existing; |

|
(i) | in connection with any underwritten offering pursuant to a Registration Statement, the Company will enter into an underwriting agreement with an underwriter selected and retained by the Agents, and reasonably acceptable to the Company in its discretion, in form reasonably necessary to effect the offer and sale of such securities, provided such underwriting agreement contains reasonable and customary terms and provisions; |

1.5 Indemnification.
(a) |
The Company will indemnify each Holder, each of its officers, directors and partners, legal counsel, and accountants and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, with respect to which registration has been effected pursuant to this Agreement, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act any such underwriter, against all expenses, claims, losses, damages, and liabilities (or actions, proceedings or settlements in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action required of the Company in connection with any such registration, and will reimburse each such Holder, each of its officers, directors, partners, legal counsel, and accountants and each person controlling such Holder, each such underwriter, and each person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating and defending or settling any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, provided that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission based upon written information furnished to the Company by such Holder or underwriter. It is agreed that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 1.5 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). | |
(b) |
Each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration is being effected, indemnify the Company, each of its directors, officers, partners, legal counsel, and accountants and each underwriter, if any, of the Company’s securities covered by such a registration statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, each other such Holder, and each of their officers, directors, and partners, and each person controlling such Holder, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and such other Holders, directors, officers, partners, legal counsel, and accountants, persons, underwriters, or control persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in the Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder provided, however, that the obligations of such Holder hereunder shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); and provided that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 1.5 exceed the gross proceeds from the offering received by such Holder. | |
(c) | Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 1.5 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense, and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 1.5, to the extent such failure is not materially prejudicial to such defence. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that 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. Each Indemnified Party shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom. |
- 5 -
(d) | If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.5 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to therein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. |
|
(e) | The Indemnifying Party agrees to reimburse any Indemnified Party monthly upon receipt of invoice(s) therefor, for the time spent by the Indemnified Party’s personnel where they are required to testify, attend or otherwise respond to any claim at their normal per diem rates. |
|
(f) | Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control. |
1.6 Information by Holder. Each Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder and the distribution proposed by such Holder as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement.
1.7 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission that may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to:
(a) |
file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act at any time it is subject to such reporting requirements; and |
- 6 -
(b) |
so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to the Holder forthwith upon written request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing a Holder to sell any such securities without registration. |
1.8 Transfer or Assignment of Registration Rights. The registration rights granted to a Holder by the Company under this Agreement may be transferred or assigned by a Holder provided that the Company is given written notice at the time of or within a reasonable time after said transfer or assignment, stating the name and address of the transferee or assignee and identifying the Registrable Securities being transferred or assigned. Such transferees (other than transferees that acquire the Registrable Securities in a registered public offering or pursuant to a sale under Rule 144) shall automatically be entitled to receive the benefits of and be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement as if it were a party hereto, and shall be deemed to be Holders under this Agreement.
1.9 Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to take any action to restrain, enjoin or otherwise delay any registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 1.
1.10 Time is of Essence. The Company agrees that time is of the essence of each of the covenants contained herein and that, in the event of a dispute hereunder, this Agreement is to be interpreted and construed in a manner that will enable the Holders to sell their Registrable Securities as quickly as possible. Any delay on the part of the Company not expressly permitted under this Agreement, whether material or not, shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement.
1.11 Remedies Upon Default or Delay. The Company acknowledges the breach of any part of this Agreement may cause irreparable harm to a Holder and that monetary damages alone may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that the Holder shall be entitled to injunctive relief or such other applicable remedy as a court of competent jurisdiction may provide. Nothing contained herein will be construed to limit a Holder’s right to any remedies at law, including recovery of damages for breach of any part of this Agreement.

4.4 Entire Agreement; Amendment; Waiver.

4.6 Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any Holder, upon any breach or default of the Company under this Agreement shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such Holder nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default therefore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any Holder of any breach or default under this Agreement or any waiver on the part of any Holder of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement must be made in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

4.8 Information Confidential. Each Holder acknowledges that the information received by them pursuant hereto may be confidential and for its use only, and it will not use such confidential information in violation of the Exchange Act or reproduce, disclose or disseminate such information to any other person (other than its employees or agents having a need to know the contents of such information, and its attorneys), except in connection with the exercise of rights under this Agreement, unless the Company has made such information available to the public generally or such Holder is required to disclose such information by a governmental body.
