Shelf
Registration
(a) On

prior to each Filing Date, the Company shall prepare and file with the
Commission a Registration Statement covering the resale of all or such maximum
portion of the Registrable Securities as permitted by SEC Guidance (provided
that, the Company shall use diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission
for
the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the
SEC
Guidance, including without limitation, the Manual of Publicly Available
Telephone Interpretations D.29) that are not then registered on an effective
Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant
to Rule 415. The Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 (except if the
Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities
on Form S-3, in which case such registration shall be on another appropriate
form in accordance herewith) and shall contain (unless otherwise directed by
at
least an 85% majority in interest of the Holders) substantially the
“Plan
of Distribution”
attached hereto as Annex
A.
Subject
to the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall use its commercially best
efforts to cause a Registration Statement to be declared effective under the
Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, but in any
event prior to the applicable Effectiveness Date, and shall use its commercially
best efforts to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective under
the Securities Act until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
Statement have been sold, or
may
be sold without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144,
as
determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter
to
such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Transfer Agent and the affected
Holders (the “Effectiveness
Period”).
The
Company shall telephonically request effectiveness of a Registration Statement
as of 5:00 p.m. New York City time on a Trading Day. The Company shall
immediately notify the Holders via facsimile or by e-mail of the effectiveness
of a Registration Statement on the same Trading Day that the Company
telephonically confirms effectiveness with the Commission, which shall be the
date requested for effectiveness of such Registration Statement. The Company
shall, by 9:30 a.m. New York City time on the Trading Day after the effective
date of such Registration Statement, file a final Prospectus with the Commission
as required by Rule 424. Failure to so notify the Holder within 1 Trading Day
of
such notification of effectiveness or failure to file a final Prospectus as
foresaid shall be deemed an Event under Section 2(b). Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement and subject to the payment of liquidated
damages pursuant to Section 2(b), if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation
on
the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular
Registration Statement (and notwithstanding that the Company used diligent
efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater
portion of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing by
a
Holder as to its Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities
to
be registered on such Registration Statement will first be reduced by
Registrable Securities represented by Warrant Shares (applied, in the case
that
some Warrant Shares may be registered, to the Holders on a pro rata basis based
on the total number of unregistered Warrant Shares held by such Holders), and
second by Registrable Securities represented by Conversion Shares (applied,
in
the case that some Conversion Shares may be registered, to the Holders on a
pro
rata basis based on the total number of unregistered Conversion Shares held
by
such Holders); provided,
however,
that,
prior to any reduction in the number of Registrable Securities included in
a
Registration Statement as set forth in this sentence, the number of shares
of
Common Stock set forth on Schedule
6(b)
hereto
which shall have been included on such Registration Statement shall be reduced
by up to 100%.
3
(b) If:
(i)
the Initial Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to its Filing Date
(if the Company files the Initial Registration Statement without affording
the
Holders the opportunity to review and comment on the same as required by Section
3(a) herein, the Company shall be deemed to have not satisfied this clause
(i)),
or (ii) the Company fails to file with the Commission a request for acceleration
of a Registration Statement in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated by the
Commission pursuant to the Securities Act, within five Trading Days of the
date
that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by
the
Commission that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not
be subject to further review, or (iii) prior to the effective date of a
Registration Statement, the Company fails to file a pre-effective amendment
and
otherwise respond in writing to comments made by the Commission in respect
of
such Registration Statement within 10 calendar days after the receipt of
comments by or notice from the Commission that such amendment is required in
order for such Registration Statement to be declared effective, or (iv) as
to,
in the aggregate among all Holders on a pro-rata basis based on their purchase
of the Securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, a Registration Statement
registering for resale all of the Initial Shares is not declared effective
by
the Commission by the Effectiveness Date of the Initial Registration Statement,
or (v) all of the Registrable Securities are not registered for resale pursuant
to one or more effective Registration Statements on or before June
30, 2009,
or (vi)
after the effective date of a Registration Statement, such Registration
Statement ceases for any reason to remain continuously effective as to all
Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement, or the Holders
are otherwise not permitted to utilize the Prospectus therein to resell such
Registrable Securities, for more than 20 consecutive calendar days or more
than
an aggregate of 30 calendar days (which need not be consecutive calendar days)
during any 12-month period (any such failure or breach being referred to as
an
“Event”,
and
for purposes of clause (i), (iv) and (v) the date on which such Event occurs,
and for purpose of clause (ii) the date on which such five Trading Day period
is
exceeded, and for purpose of clause (iii) the date which such 10 calendar day
period is exceeded, and for purpose of clause (vi) the date on which such 10
or
15 calendar day period, as applicable, is exceeded being referred to as
“Event
Date”),
then,
in addition to any other rights the Holders may have hereunder or under
applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of
each
such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such
date)
until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay to each Holder an
amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to
2.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement for any unregistered Registrable Securities then held by
such
Holder. The parties agree that (1) the Company shall not be liable for
liquidated damages under this Agreement with respect to any Warrants or Warrant
Shares and (2) the maximum aggregate liquidated damages payable to a Holder
under this Agreement shall be 10% of the aggregate Subscription Amount paid
by
such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. If the Company fails to pay
any
partial liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full within seven days
after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of
12%
per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by
applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily from the date such partial
liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon,
are paid in full. The partial liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof
shall apply on a daily pro rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the
cure of an Event.

In
connection with the Company’s registration obligations hereunder, the Company

to be filed, which documents (other than those incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference) will be subject to the review of such Holders, and
(ii) cause its officers and directors, counsel and independent certified public
accountants to respond to such inquiries as shall be necessary, in the
reasonable opinion of respective counsel to each Holder, to conduct a reasonable
investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Company shall not
file a Registration Statement or any such Prospectus or any amendments or
supplements thereto to which the Holders of a majority of the Registrable
Securities shall reasonably object in good faith, provided that, the Company
is
notified of such objection in writing no later than five (5) Trading Days after
the Holders have been so furnished copies of a Registration Statement or one
(1)
Trading Day after the Holders have been so furnished copies of any related
Prospectus or amendments or supplements thereto. Each Holder agrees to furnish
to the Company a completed questionnaire in the form attached to this Agreement
as Annex
B

fourth (4th)
Trading
Day following the date on which such Holder receives draft materials in
accordance with this Section.
5
(b) (i)
Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective
amendments, to a Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep a Registration Statement continuously
effective as to the applicable Registrable Securities for the Effectiveness
Period and prepare and file with the Commission such additional Registration
Statements in order to register for resale under the Securities Act all of
the
Registrable Securities; (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or
supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement (subject to the terms of
this
Agreement), and, as so supplemented or amended, to be filed pursuant to Rule
424; (iii) respond as promptly as reasonably possible to any comments received
from the Commission with respect to a Registration Statement or any amendment
thereto and provide as promptly as reasonably possible to the Holders true
and
complete copies of all correspondence from and to the Commission relating to
a
Registration Statement (provided that, the Company may excise any information
contained therein which would constitute material non-public information as
to
any Holder which has not executed a confidentiality agreement with the Company);
and (iv) comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities
Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable
Securities covered by a Registration Statement during the applicable period
in
accordance (subject to the terms of this Agreement) with the intended methods
of
disposition by the Holders thereof set forth in such Registration Statement
as
so amended or in such Prospectus as so supplemented.
(c) If
during
the Effectiveness Period, the number of Registrable Securities at any time
exceeds 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock then registered in a
Registration Statement, then the Company shall file as soon as reasonably
practicable, but in any case prior to the applicable Filing Date, an additional
Registration Statement covering the resale by the Holders of not less than
the
number of such Registrable Securities.
(d) Notify
the Holders of Registrable Securities to be sold (which notice shall, pursuant
to clauses (iii) through (vi) hereof, be accompanied by an instruction to
suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite changes have been made)
as
promptly as reasonably possible (and, in the case of (i)(A) below, not less
than
one Trading Day prior to such filing) and (if requested by any such Person)
confirm such notice in writing no later than one Trading Day following the
day
(i)(A) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment to a Registration Statement is proposed to be filed; (B) when the
Commission notifies the Company whether there will be a “review” of such
Registration Statement and whenever the Commission comments in writing on such
Registration Statement; and (C) with respect to a Registration Statement or
any
post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (ii) of any
request by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority
for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or Prospectus or
for
additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the Commission or any other
federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the
effectiveness of a Registration Statement covering any or all of the Registrable
Securities or the initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) of the
receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of
the
qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable
Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of
any
Proceeding for such purpose; (v) of the occurrence of any event or passage
of
time that makes the financial statements included in a Registration Statement
ineligible for inclusion therein or any statement made in a Registration
Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that
requires any revisions to a Registration Statement, Prospectus or other
documents so that, in the case of a Registration Statement or the Prospectus,
as
the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact
or
omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were
made, not misleading; and (vi) of the occurrence or existence of any pending
corporate development with respect to the Company that the Company believes
may
be material and that, in the determination of the Company, makes it not in
the
best interest of the Company to allow continued availability of a Registration
Statement or Prospectus, provided that, any and all of such information shall
remain confidential to each Holder until such information otherwise becomes
public, unless disclosure by a Holder is required by law; provided,
further,
that
notwithstanding each Holder’s agreement to keep such information confidential,
each such Holder makes no acknowledgement that any such information is material,
non-public information.
6
(e) Use
its
commercially best efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued, obtain the
withdrawal of (i) any order stopping or suspending the effectiveness of a
Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or
exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale
in
any jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable moment.
(f) Furnish
to each Holder, without charge, at least one conformed copy of each such
Registration Statement and each amendment thereto, including financial
statements and schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated therein by reference to the extent requested by such Person, and
all exhibits to the extent requested by such Person (including those previously
furnished or incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such
documents with the Commission; provided, that any such item which is available
on the XXXXX system need not be furnished in physical form.
7
(g) Subject
to the terms of this Agreement, the Company hereby consents to the use of such
Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling
Holders in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities
covered by such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, except
after
the giving of any notice pursuant to Section 3(d).
(h)
The
Company shall cooperate with any broker-dealer through which a Holder proposes
to resell its Registrable Securities in effecting a filing with the FINRA
Corporate Financing Department pursuant to NASD Rule 2710, as requested by
any
such Holder, and the Company shall pay the filing fee required by such filing
within two (2) Business Days of request therefor.
(i) Prior
to
any resale of Registrable Securities by a Holder, use its commercially
reasonable efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders
in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from the
Registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for the resale
by
the Holder under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within
the United States as any Holder reasonably requests in writing, to keep each
registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the
Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things reasonably
necessary to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable
Securities covered by each Registration Statement; provided, that, the Company
shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction
where it is not then so qualified, subject the Company to any material tax
in
any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or file a general consent
to service of process in any such jurisdiction.
(j) If
requested by a Holder, cooperate with such Holders to facilitate the timely
preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities
to
be delivered to a transferee pursuant to a Registration Statement, which
certificates shall be free, to the extent permitted by the Purchase Agreement,
of all restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable Securities to be
in
such denominations and registered in such names as any such Holder may
request.
(k) Upon
the
occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 3(d), as promptly as reasonably
possible under the circumstances taking into account the Company’s good faith
assessment of any adverse consequences to the Company and its stockholders
of
the premature disclosure of such event, prepare a supplement or amendment,
including a post-effective amendment, to a Registration Statement or a
supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed
to
be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document
so
that, as thereafter delivered, neither a Registration Statement nor such
Prospectus will contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading. If
the
Company notifies the Holders in accordance with clauses (iii) through (vi)
of
Section 3(d) above to suspend the use of any Prospectus until the requisite
changes to such Prospectus have been made, then the Holders shall suspend use
of
such Prospectus. The Company will use its commercially best efforts to ensure
that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed as promptly as is practicable.
The
Company shall be entitled to exercise its right under this Section 3(k) to
suspend the availability of a Registration Statement and Prospectus, subject
to
the payment of partial liquidated damages otherwise required pursuant to Section
2(b), for a period not to exceed 60 calendar days (which need not be consecutive
days) in any 12 month period.
8
(l) Comply
with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission.
(m) The
Company may require each selling Holder to furnish to the Company a certified
statement as to the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by
such
Holder and, if required by the Commission, the natural persons thereof that
have
voting and dispositive control over the shares. During any periods that the
Company is unable to meet its obligations hereunder with respect to the
registration of the Registrable Securities solely because any Holder fails
to
furnish such information within three Trading Days of the Company’s request, any
liquidated damages that are accruing at such time as to such Holder only shall
be tolled and any Event that may otherwise occur solely because of such delay
shall be suspended as to such Holder only, until such information is delivered
to the Company.
4.
Registration
Expenses.
All
fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this
Agreement by the Company shall be borne by the Company whether or not any
Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement. The fees
and expenses referred to in the foregoing sentence shall include, without
limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including, without limitation,

made with any Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed for
trading, (C) in compliance with applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws
reasonably agreed to by the Company in writing (including, without limitation,
fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company in connection with Blue Sky
qualifications or exemptions of the Registrable Securities) and (D) if not
previously paid by the Company in connection with an Issuer Filing, with respect
to any filing that may be required to be made by any broker through which a
Holder intends to make sales of Registrable Securities with the FINRA pursuant
to NASD Rule 2710, so long as the broker is receiving no more than a customary
brokerage commission in connection with such sale, (ii) printing expenses
(including, without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for
Registrable Securities), (iii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses,

shall be responsible for all of its internal expenses incurred in connection
with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
(including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and
employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual
audit and the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of

defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing
that
the Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder
of the Advice contemplated in Section 6(d). In no event shall the liability
of
any selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of
the
net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities
giving rise to such indemnification obligation.
10
(c) Conduct
of Indemnification Proceedings.
If any
Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity
hereunder (an “Indemnified
Party”),
such
Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought
(the “Indemnifying
Party”)
in
writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense
thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in
connection with defense thereof; provided, that, the failure of any Indemnified
Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its
obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to
the
extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
(which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such
failure shall have prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.
An
Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such
Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses
of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties
unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and
expenses; (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the
defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to
such
Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any such
Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified
Party
and the Indemnifying Party, and counsel to the Indemnified Party shall
reasonably believe that a material conflict of interest is likely to exist
if
the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying
Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party
in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the
Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume
the defense thereof and the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one
separate counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party). The
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding
effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written
consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending
Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such
settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from
all
liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.
11
Subject
to the terms of this Agreement, all reasonable fees and expenses of the
Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred
in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in
a
manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified
Party, as incurred, within ten Trading Days of written notice thereof to the
Indemnifying Party; provided, that, the Indemnified Party shall promptly
reimburse the Indemnifying Party for that portion of such fees and expenses
applicable to such actions for which such Indemnified Party is judicially
determined not to be entitled to indemnification hereunder.
(d) Contribution.
If the
indemnification under Section 5(a) or 5(b) is unavailable to an Indemnified
Party or insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless for any Losses,
then
each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnified Party, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the
actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying
Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material
fact,
has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such
Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result
of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth
in this Agreement, any reasonable attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or
expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent
such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the
indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in
accordance with its terms.
The
parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by
any
other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable
considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(d), no Holder shall be required
to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which
the
net proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable
Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that
such
Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, except in the case of fraud
by
such Holder.
12
The
indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition
to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified
Parties.
6.
Miscellaneous.
(a) Remedies.
In the
event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder of any of their respective
obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the Company, as the case may
be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and
under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, shall be entitled to
specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company and each
Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation
for
any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of
this
Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any action for
specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall not assert or shall
waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
(b) No
Piggyback on Registrations; Prohibition on Filing Other Registration
Statements.
Except
as set forth on Schedule
6(b)
attached
hereto, neither the Company nor any of its security holders (other than the
Holders in such capacity pursuant hereto) may include securities of the Company
in any Registration Statements other than the Registrable Securities. The
Company shall not file any other registration statements until all Registrable
Securities are registered pursuant to a Registration Statement that is declared
effective by the Commission, provided that this Section 6(b) shall not prohibit
the Company from filing amendments to registration statements filed prior to
the
date of this Agreement.
(c) Compliance.
Each
Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it in connection with sales
of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement.
(d) Discontinued
Disposition.
By its
acquisition of Registrable Securities, each Holder agrees that, upon receipt
of
a notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described
in Section 3(d)(iii) through (vi), such Holder will forthwith discontinue
disposition of such Registrable Securities under a Registration Statement until
it is advised in writing (the “Advice”)
by the
Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus (as it may have been
supplemented or amended) may be resumed. The Company will use its commercially
best efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed as promptly
as is practicable. The Company agrees and acknowledges that any periods during
which the Holder is required to discontinue the disposition of the Registrable
Securities hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of Section
2(b).
13
(e) Piggy-Back
Registrations.
If, at
any time during the Effectiveness Period, there is not an effective Registration
Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities and the Company shall
determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement
relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under
the
Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form
S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents
relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any
acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in
connection with the Company’s stock option or other employee benefit plans, then
the Company shall deliver to each Holder a written notice of such determination
and, if within fifteen days after the date of the delivery of such notice,
any
such Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such
registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities such
Holder requests to be registered; provided,
however,
that
the Company shall not be required to register any Registrable Securities
pursuant to this Section 6(e) that are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule
144(k) promulgated by the Commission pursuant to the Securities Act or that
are
the subject of a then effective Registration Statement.
(f) Amendments
and Waivers.
The
provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may
not
be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures
from
the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the same shall be in writing
and
signed by the Company and the Holders of a
majority
of the
then outstanding Registrable Securities (including, for this purpose any
Registrable Securities issuable upon exercise or conversion of any Security).
If
a Registration Statement does not register all of the Registrable Securities
pursuant to a waiver or amendment done in compliance with the previous sentence,
then the number of Registrable Securities to be registered for each Holder
shall
be reduced pro rata among all Holders, and each Holder shall have the right
to
designate which of its Registrable Securities shall be omitted from such
Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent
to
depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates
exclusively to the rights of a Holder or some Holders and that does not directly
or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders may be given by such Holder
or
Holders of all of the Registrable Securities to which such waiver or consent
relates; provided,
however,
that
the provisions of this sentence may not be amended, modified, or supplemented
except in accordance with the provisions of the first sentence of this Section
6(f).
(g) Notices.
Any and
all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to
be
provided hereunder shall be delivered as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
(h) Successors
and Assigns.
This
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors
and
permitted assigns of each of the parties and shall inure to the benefit of
each
Holder. The Company may not assign (except by merger) its rights or obligations
hereunder without the prior written consent of all of the Holders of the then
outstanding Registrable Securities. Each Holder may assign their respective
rights hereunder in the manner and to the Persons as permitted under the
Purchase Agreement.
(i) No
Inconsistent Agreements.
Neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has entered, as of the date hereof,
nor
shall the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on or after the date of this
Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities, that would
have the effect of impairing the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement
or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. Except as set forth on
Schedule
6(i),
neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has previously entered into any
agreement granting any registration rights with respect to any of its securities
to any Person that have not been satisfied in full.
14
(j) Execution
and Counterparts.
This
Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken
together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become
effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to
the
other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same
counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile
transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature
shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose
behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such
facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.
(k) Governing
Law.
All
questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
of this Agreement shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of
the
Purchase Agreement.
(l) Cumulative
Remedies.
The
remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any other remedies
provided by law.
(m) Severability.
If any
term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court
of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the
remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein
shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired
or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable
efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or
substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision,
covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the
intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may
be
hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.
(n) Headings.
The
headings in this Agreement are for convenience only, do not constitute a part
of
the Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions
hereof.
(o) Independent
Nature of Holders’ Obligations and Rights.
The
obligations of each Holder hereunder are several and not joint with the
obligations of any other Holder hereunder, and no Holder shall be responsible
in
any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Holder hereunder.
Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at
any
closing, and no action taken by any Holder pursuant hereto or thereto, shall
be
deemed to constitute the Holders as a partnership, an association, a joint
venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holders
are in any way acting in concert with respect to such obligations or the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Holder shall be entitled
to
protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising
out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Holder to
be
joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

Annex
A
Plan
of Distribution
Each
Selling Stockholder (the “Selling
Stockholders”)
of the
common stock and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest
may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on
the
[principal Trading Market] or any other stock exchange, market or trading
facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales
may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Stockholder may use any one
or
more of the following methods when selling shares:
|
·
|
ordinary
brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer
solicits purchasers;
|
|
·
|
block
trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares
as agent
but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to
facilitate the transaction;
|
|
·
|
purchases
by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for
its
account;
|
|
·
|
an
exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable
exchange;
|
|
·
|
privately
negotiated transactions;
|
|
·
|
settlement
of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration
statement of which this prospectus is a part;
|
|
·
|
broker-dealers
may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number
of such
shares at a stipulated price per
share;
|
|
·
|
through
the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions,
whether through an options exchange or
otherwise;
|
|
·
|
a
combination of any such methods of sale;
or
|
|
·
|
any
other method permitted pursuant to applicable
law.
|
The
Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”),
if
available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers
engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to
participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from
the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the
purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but,
except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency
transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance
with
FINRA NASD Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or
markdown in compliance with NASD IM-2440.
18
In
connection with the sale of the common stock or interests therein, the Selling
Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other
financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common
stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling
Stockholders may also sell shares of the common stock short and deliver these
securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common
stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling
Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with
broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more
derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other
financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such
broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this
prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such
transaction).
The
Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in
selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the
Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions
received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the
shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or
discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Stockholder has informed the
Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding,
directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Common Stock. In
no
event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which,
in
the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).
The
Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company
incident to the registration of the shares. The Company has agreed to indemnify
the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
Because
Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of
the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements
of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition, any securities
covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under
the
Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus.
There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the
proposed sale of the resale shares by the Selling Stockholders.
We
agreed
to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which
the
shares may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and
without regard to any volume limitations by reason of Rule 144(k) under the
Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the shares
have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities
Act
or any other rule of similar effect. The resale shares will be sold only through
registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state
securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not
be
sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable
state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is
available and is complied with.
19
Under
applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged
in
the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market
making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted
period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the
distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to
applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases
and
sales of shares of the common stock by the Selling Stockholders or any other
person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling
Stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this
prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including
by
compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).
