Section 2. Registration under the Securities Act.
(a) Registration Requirement. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the Commission on the 181st day following the date hereof a Shelf Registration Statement meeting the requirements of the Securities Act and cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as reasonably practicable thereafter. No Holder of Registrable Securities shall be entitled to include any of its Registrable Securities in any Shelf Registration pursuant to this Agreement unless and until such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder and furnishes to the Company in writing, within 10 Business Days after receipt of a request therefor, such information as the Company may, after conferring with counsel with regard to information relating to Holders that would be required by the Commission to be included in such Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus, reasonably request for inclusion in any Shelf
Registration Statement or the Prospectus. Each Holder as to which any Shelf Registration is being effected agrees to furnish to the Company all information with respect to such Holder necessary to make the information previously furnished to the Company by such Holder not materially misleading.
(b) Effectiveness Requirement. The Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and the Prospectus usable for resales for a period commencing on the date that such Shelf Registration Statement is initially declared effective by the Commission and terminating on the date when all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement or cease to be Registrable Securities (the “Effectiveness Period”); provided, however, that (i) the Company shall be permitted to defer the filing and/or effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement, to suspend the sale of securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement and to withdraw the Shelf Registration Statement during any Delay Period (as defined below) and (ii) nothing contained herein shall require the Company to prepare any financial statements for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Shelf Registration Statement prior to the time period such financial statements would otherwise be required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act.
(c) Delay Period. The term “Delay Period” shall mean, with respect to any obligation to keep the Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus usable for resales pursuant to this Section 2, the shortest period of time determined in good faith by the Company to be necessary for such purpose when there exist circumstances relating to a material pending development, including but not limited to a pending or contemplated material acquisition or merger or other material transaction or similar event, which would require disclosure by the Company in such Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus of material information which the Company determines in good faith that it has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential and non-public and the non-disclosure of which in the Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus might cause such Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements. A Delay Period shall commence on and include the date that the Company gives written notice (a “Delay Notice”) to the Holders that the Prospectus is no longer usable as a result of a material pending development pursuant to Section 2(b) hereof and shall end on the date when the Holders are advised in writing by the Company that the current Delay Period has terminated (it being understood that the Company shall give such notice to all Holders promptly upon making the determination that the Delay Period has ended); provided, however, that the Company shall not be entitled during any consecutive twelve (12)-month period to (i) more than three (3) Delay Periods or (ii) to Delay Periods having durations that exceed ninety (90) days in the aggregate.
(d) Notice. The Company shall, in the event the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, provide to each Holder a reasonable number of copies of the Prospectus which is a part of such Shelf Registration Statement, notify each such
Holder when such Shelf Registration Statement has become effective and take such other actions as are required to permit unrestricted resales of the Registrable Securities. The Company further agrees to supplement or amend the Shelf Registration Statement if and as required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Shelf Registration Statement or by the Securities Act or by any other rules and regulations thereunder for shelf registrations, and the Company agrees to furnish to the Holders of Registrable Securities copies of any such supplement or amendment promptly after its being used or filed with the Commission.
(e) Effective Shelf Registration Statement. The Shelf Registration Statement will not be deemed to have become effective unless it has been declared effective by the Commission; provided, however, that if, after it has been declared effective, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or any other governmental agency or court, such Shelf Registration Statement will be deemed not to have been effective during the period of such interference until the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement may legally resume.
(f) Selection of Underwriter. In any underwritten offering to be effected pursuant to a Shelf Registration, Holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock to be included in such offering will have the right to select the managing underwriter (which shall be of nationally recognized standing) to administer the offering, but only with the approval of the Company, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld.
(g) Other Registration Rights. The Company represents and warrants that as of the date hereof it is not a party to, or otherwise subject to, any other agreement granting registration rights to any other Person with respect to any securities of the Company. Except as provided in this Agreement, prior to the date on which the Shelf Registration Statement is initially declared effective by the Commission, the Company shall not grant to any Person the right to request the Company to register any equity securities of the Company, or any securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for equity securities of the Company, without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities.

(vii) deliver to each selling Holder of Registrable Securities and each managing underwriter participating in any such disposition of Registrable Securities, if any, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus (including any preliminary prospectus) as such Holder or managing underwriters, if any, may reasonably request (it being understood that the Company consents to the use of the Prospectus by each of the selling Holders of Registrable Securities and the underwriter or underwriters, if any, in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by the Prospectus), such other documents incorporated by reference therein and any exhibits thereto as such selling Holder or managing underwriter may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities by such Holder or underwriter;
(viii) cooperate with the selling Holders of Registrable Securities to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold and not bearing any restrictive legends and registered in such names as the selling Holders or any underwriters may reasonably request at least two Business Days prior to the closing of any sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement;
(ix) as soon as practicable after the resolution of any matter or event specified in Sections 3(a)(iv)(B), 3(a)(iv)(C), 3(a)(iv)(E) (subject to the proviso contained in Section 2(b) hereof) and 3(a)(iv)(F) hereof), prepare a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Securities, such Prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein,
in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
(x) within a reasonable time following the filing of any document which is to be incorporated by reference into the Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus after the initial filing of such Shelf Registration Statement, provide a copy to the Holders and managing underwriters of an underwritten offering of Registrable Securities, if any;

(xii) provide and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement from and after a date not later than the effective date of such Shelf Registration Statement;
(xiii) list or quote all Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement on any securities exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted if such Registrable Securities are not already so listed or quoted and if such listing is then permitted under the rules of such exchange or quotation system;

(ii) the Company may require each seller of Registrable Securities as to which any registration is being effected to furnish to it such information regarding such seller as may be required by the staff of the Commission to be included in the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company may exclude from such registration the Registrable Securities of any seller who fails to furnish such information within 10 Business Days after receiving such request, and the Company shall have no obligation to register under the Securities Act the Registrable Securities of a seller who so fails to furnish such information.
No Holder in its capacity as a stockholder and/or controlling person of the Company (but not in its capacity as director or officer of the Company) shall be required by any underwriting agreement to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Holder, the ownership of such Holder’s Registrable Securities and such Holder’s intended method or methods of disposition and any other representation
required by law or to furnish any indemnity to any Person which is broader than the indemnity furnished by such Holder pursuant to Section 5 hereof.

Section 5. Indemnification; Contribution.
(a) Indemnification by the Company. If any Registrable Securities are included in the Shelf Registration Statement under this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each selling Holder, each Person, if any, who controls such selling Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act, and each officer, director, trustee, partner, and employee of such selling Holder and such controlling Person, against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable expenses of investigation), to which any of the foregoing Persons may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained
in such Shelf Registration Statement, including any amendments or supplements thereto, any document incorporated by reference therein and the Prospectus, or 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 the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading; provided, however, that the indemnification required by this Section 5(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Shelf Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by a Holder, underwriter or the indemnified party expressly for use in connection with such registration; provided, further, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5(a) shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim or damage based on or arising out of (i) an offer or sale of Registrable Securities during any Delay Period pursuant to Section 2(c) hereof (provided that the Company has given the Holder a Delay Notice pursuant to Section 2(c) hereof) or (ii) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, or an omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, contained in or omitted from such Shelf Registration Statement, any amendments or supplements thereto, any document incorporated by reference therein or the Prospectus in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by such Person specifically for use therein.
(b) Indemnification by Holder. If any of a selling Holder’s Registrable Securities are included in the Shelf Registration Statement under this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable law, such selling Holder shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who shall have signed such Shelf Registration Statement, 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, any other selling Holder, any controlling Person of any such other selling Holder and each officer, director, partner, and employee of such other selling Holder and such controlling Person, against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (joint and several), including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and expenses of investigation, incurred by such party pursuant to any actual or threatened action, suit, proceeding or investigation, or to which any of the foregoing Persons may otherwise become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state laws, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses arise out or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Shelf Registration Statement, including the Prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto or any document incorporated by reference therein, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein (in light of the circumstances under which they were made in the case of the Prospectus) not misleading, but only to the
extent that such untrue statement or omission had been contained in any information furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company expressly for use in connection with such registration; provided, however, that (i) the indemnification required by this Section 5(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense if settlement is effected without the consent of the relevant selling Holder of Registrable Securities, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and (ii) in no event shall the amount of any indemnity under this Section 5(b) exceed the net proceeds from the applicable offering received by such selling Holder. The Company and the Holders of the Registrable Securities in their capacities as stockholders and/or controlling persons (but not in their capacities as directors or officers of the Company) hereby acknowledge and agree that the only information furnished or to be furnished to the Company for use in any registration statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities or in any amendment, supplement or preliminary materials associated therewith are statements specifically relating to (A) the beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock by such Holder and its Affiliates and (B) the name and address of such Holder. If any additional information about such Holder or the plan of distribution (other than for an underwritten offering) is required by law to be disclosed in any such document, then such Holder shall not unreasonably withhold its agreement referred to in the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 5(b). In no event shall a Holder be jointly liable with any other Holder as a result of its indemnification obligations.
(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 5 of notice of the commencement of any action, suit, proceeding, investigation or threat thereof made in writing for which such indemnified party may make a claim under this Section 5, such indemnified party shall deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time following the commencement of any such action, if it prejudices or results in forfeiture of substantial rights or defenses of the indemnifying party, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 5, to the extent of any damage directly suffered by the indemnifying party as a result thereof. Any fees and expenses incurred by the indemnified party (including any fees and expenses incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such action or proceeding) shall be paid to the indemnified party, as incurred, within thirty (30) days of written notice thereof to the indemnifying party. Any such indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action, claim or proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be the expenses of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees and expenses, (ii) the indemnifying party shall have failed to promptly assume the defense of such action, claim or
proceeding or (iii) the named parties to any such action, claim or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such indemnified party and the indemnifying party, and such indemnified party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party (in which case, if such indemnified party notifies the indemnifying party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action, claim or proceeding on behalf of such indemnified party, it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action, claim or proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related actions, claims or proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one additional firm of attorneys (together with appropriate local counsel) at any time for all such indemnified parties. No indemnifying party shall be liable to an indemnified party for any settlement of any action, proceeding or claim without the written consent of the indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(d) Contribution. If the indemnification required by this Section 5 from the indemnifying party is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to in this Section 5:
(i) The indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified parties in connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any indemnifiable action has been committed by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified parties, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such indemnifiable action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5(a) and Section 5(b), any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.
(ii) The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in Section 5(d)(i).
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.
(iii) No party shall be liable for contribution under this Section 5(d) except to the extent and under such circumstances as such party would have been liable for indemnification under this Section 5 if such indemnification were enforceable under applicable law.
