WHEREAS, the Company and its stockholders desire to enter into this Agreement for the purposes, among others, to provide the registration rights set forth in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, agreements and understandings contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:
Section 1. Demand Registration.
(i) Request for a Demand Registration. If at any time after the earlier of (i) fifth anniversary of the Series B-3 Closing or (ii) one hundred and eighty (180) days after the effective date of the registration statement for the IPO with an aggregate offering price of not less than US$50,000,000, the Company receives a written request from Holders of at least sixty percent (60%) of the Registrable Securities (calculated on an as-converted basis) (the “Requesting Holders”) that the Company effect a Registration of Registrable Securities in any jurisdiction in which the Company has had a registered underwritten public offering (or, if the Company has not yet had a registered underwritten public offering, then such request may be to effect such Registration on the New York Stock Exchange,the NASDAQ Global Market or the NASDAQ Global Select Market), then the Company shall (i) give prompt written notice of the proposed Registration to all other Holders, and (ii) as soon as practicable and in any event within ninety (90) days of such request, use its best efforts to effect the Registration of the Registrable Securities specified in the request of the Requesting Holders, together with any Registrable Securities as are specified in written requests of such other Holders given within fifteen (15) Business Days after such written notice from the Company is delivered to such Holders.
(ii) Limitation on Demand Registration. The Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any Registration pursuant to Section 1(i) after the Company has effected two (2) Registrations pursuant to Section 1(i), provided that if the sale of all of the Registrable Securities sought to be included pursuant to this Section 1 is not consummated for any reason other than due to the action or inaction of the Holders including Registrable Securities in such Registration, such Registration shall not be deemed to constitute one of the Registration rights granted pursuant to this Section 1.
(iii) Underwriting of Demand Registration. If the Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their Registration pursuant to Section 1(i) by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their written request to the Company, and the Company shall include such information in the written notice to the other Holders. In such case, the right of any Holder to participate in any Registration pursuant to Section 1(i) shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s agreement to participate in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting. The Company shall (together with all Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through the underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative (“Underwriter’s Representative”) of the underwriter or underwriters selected for the underwriting by the Holders of at least 60% in voting power of the Registrable Securities being Registered through such underwriting and reasonably acceptable to the Company. If the Underwriter’s Representative advises the Holders that market factors (including, but not limited to, the aggregate number of Registrable Securities requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market, and the status of the Persons proposing to sell securities pursuant to the Registration) require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that would otherwise be underwritten thereto, and the number of shares to be included in the Registration shall be allocated first among all Holders in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities requested by such Holders to be included; provided that the number of Registrable Securities held by Holders to be included in such underwriting pursuant to Section 1(i) will not be reduced unless all other securities are first entirely excluded from the underwriting. If any Holder disapproves the terms of the underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company, the Underwriter’s Representative, and the Requesting Holders delivered at least five (5) days prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement. The securities so withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from the Registration Statement. If securities are so withdrawn from the Registration, and if the number of securities to be included in such Registration was previously reduced as a result of marketing factors pursuant to this Section 1(iii), then the Company shall offer to all Holders who were so reduced the right to include additional Registrable Securities in the Registration in an aggregate amount equal to the number so withdrawn, with such securities to be allocated first among such Holders in proportion to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities reduced pursuant to this Section 1(iii).
(iv) Right of Deferral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to the Holders requesting any Registration pursuant to Section 1(i), a certificate signed by the chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Company’s Board of Directors it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such registration statement to either become effective or remain effective for as long as such registration statement otherwise would be required to remain effective, because such action would (i) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate reorganization, or other similar transaction involving the Company; (ii) require premature disclosure of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential; or (iii) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act, then the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than one hundred and twenty (120) days after receipt of the request of the Requesting Holders; provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right of deferral more than once in any consecutive twelve (12) months period and provided further that the Company shall not register any securities for its own account or that of any other stockholder during such one hundred and twenty (120) days period.
Section 2. Piggyback Registration.
(i) General. Subject to this Section 2, if the Company proposes to register any Equity Securities for its own account or for the account of any Person that is not a Holder in connection with the public offering of such securities for cash, the Company shall promptly give each Holder written notice of such Registration and, upon the written request of any Holder given within twenty (20) days after delivery of such notice, the Company shall include in such Registration any Registrable Securities thereby requested by such Holder. If a Holder decides not to include all or any of its Registrable Securities in such Registration by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent Registration Statement or Registration Statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.
(ii) Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any Registration initiated by it under this Section 2 prior to the effectiveness of such Registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to participate therein. The expenses of such withdrawn Registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 4.
(iii) Underwriting of Piggyback Registration. In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of the Company’s Equity Securities, the Company shall not be required to register the Registrable Securities of a Holder under this Section 2 unless such Holder’s Registrable Securities are included in the underwriting and such Holder enters into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriters selected by the Company and setting forth such terms for the underwriting as have been agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters; provided, however, that no Holder shall be required to give any representations or warranties with respect to the Company or any operations or assets of the Company, other than as to the ownership and title to such Holder’s Equity Securities. In the event the underwriters or the managing underwriter advises Holders seeking Registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2 in writing that the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a significant adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the class of securities offered or the market for the class of securities offered or the Commission or another Governmental Authority for a Registration in a jurisdiction other than the United States requires a reduction in the number of securities to be sold in the offering, then the underwriter(s) may exclude some or all Registrable Securities from the Registration and underwriting after excluding any other Equity Securities (including, without limitation, all Equity Securities that are not Registrable Securities and held by persons other than Holders) from the underwriting, and the number of Equity Securities and Registrable Securities that may be included in the Registration and the underwriting shall be allocated (a) first, to the Company, (b) second, among the Holders requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities which the Holders would otherwise be entitled to include in the Registration and (c) third, to any other shareholder other than a Holder on a pro rata basis but in no event other than a Qualified IPO (in which case the amount of the Registrable Securities included by the Holders may be reduced to zero), may the amount of the Registrable Securities included by the Holders be reduced below 25% of the total Ordinary Shares to be included in the Registration and underwriting, as determined on a fully-diluted, as-converted basis. If any Holder disapproves the terms of any underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriters delivered at least ten (10) days prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from the underwriting shall be withdrawn from such Registration, but may be included in any subsequent request for Registration or subsequent Registration.
(iv) Exempt Transactions. The Company shall have no obligation to register any Registrable Securities under this Section 2 in connection with a Registration by the Company (a) relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a Company equity incentive plan, or (b) relating to a corporate reorganization or other transactions under Rule 145 of the Securities Act (or comparable provision under the laws of another jurisdiction, as applicable).
(v) No Other Piggyback Registrations. Without the prior consents of the holders of at least 50% of the Preferred Shares (calculated on an as-converted basis), no Person shall be granted the registration rights as provided under this Section 2 on parity with or superior to any Holder.
Section 3. Form F-3 Registration.
(i) Request for a Form F-3 Registration. At any time after the Company becomes eligible to use Form F-3 in connection with a public offering of its securities, the Holders holding in the aggregate at least 60% of then outstanding Registrable Securities which represents not less than 10% of the Company’s then outstanding share capital (the “F-3 Initiating Holders”) may make a written request to the Company to Register, and the Company shall Register, under the Securities Act on Form F-3 (an “F-3 Registration”) the number of Registrable Securities specified in such request, provided that each registration offering is not less than US$1,000,000. The Company shall use its reasonably best efforts to cause a Registration Statement in respect of any F-3 Registration to become effective not later than ninety (90) days after the Company receives a request under this Section 3(i).
(ii) Inclusion of Registrable Securities in F-3 Registration. Each Holder other than the F-3 Initiating Holders in respect of any F-3 Registration shall have the right to have all or any portion of its Registrable Securities included in such F-3 Registration as provided in Section 3(i). Within ten (10) days after the receipt of a request for a F-3 Registration from the F-3 Initiating Holders, the Company shall (a) give written notice thereof to all of the Holders (other than the F-3 Initiating Holders) and (b) include in such registration such number of Registrable Securities specified in each written request for inclusion therein delivered by any Holder to the Company not later than ten (10) days after delivery to such Holders of the written notice referred to in Section (a) above. The failure of any Holder to respond within such 10-day period referred to in Section (b) above shall be deemed to be a waiver of such Holder’s rights under this Section 3 with respect to such F-3 Registration.
(iii) Limitation on F-3 Registration. The Company shall not be required to effect any registration pursuant to Section 3(i), (a) within 90 days after the effective date of any other Registration Statement of the Company, (b) if within the 12 months period preceding the date of such request, the Company has effected two (2) registrations on Form F-3 pursuant to Section 3(i), or (c) if Form F-3 is not available for such offering by the F-3 Initiating Holders, or (d) if the Holders requesting inclusion of Registrable Securities in such registration propose to sell such Registrable Securities in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required under the Securities Act.
(iv) No Demand Registration. No registration requested by any Holder pursuant to this Section 3 shall be deemed a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 1.
Section 4. Expenses.
All expenses (other than Selling Expenses) incurred in connection with registrations, filings, or qualifications pursuant to this Agreement, including all registration, filing, and qualification fees; printers’ and accounting fees; fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company; and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holders shall be borne by the Company. Each Holder participating in a registration pursuant to Section 1, Section 2 or Section 3 shall bear such Holder’s proportionate share (based on the total number of shares sold in such registration other than for the account of the Company) of all the Selling Expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 1 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders holding in aggregate at least 50% of then outstanding Registrable Securities, unless such Holders agree that such registration constitutes the use of one (1) demand registration pursuant to Section 1.
Section 5. Obligations of the Company.
Whenever required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under this Agreement the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:
(i) Registration Statement. Prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to those Registrable Securities and use its reasonably best efforts to cause that Registration Statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders holding at least 60% of the Registrable Securities Registered thereunder, keep the Registration Statement effective for a period of up to one hundred and twenty (120) days until the distribution contemplated in the Registration Statement has been completed; provided, however, that (i) such 120-day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period any Holder refrains from selling any securities included in such Registration Statement at the request of underwriter(s) or the Commission and (ii) in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form F-3 that are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, subject to compliance with applicable rules, such one hundred and twenty (120) days period shall be extended for up to sixty (60) days, if necessary, to keep the registration statement effective until all such Registrable Securities are sold; provided, further, that the Company shall not be deemed to have kept the Registration Statement effective if the Company voluntarily takes any action or omits to take any action that would result in the inability of any Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement to be able to offer and sell any such Registrable Securities during the term of this Agreement, unless such action or omission is required by applicable law.
(ii) Amendments and Supplements. Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Applicable Securities Law with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement.
(iii) Prospectuses. Furnish to the Holders the number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus and any supplement thereto (in each case including all Exhibits), required by Applicable Securities Law, and any other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them.
(iv) Blue Sky. Use its reasonably best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by the Registration Statement under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, provided, that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business or file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdictions unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdictions and except as may be required under the Applicable Securities Law.
(v) Underwriting. In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriters of the offering. Each Holder or other shareholder(s) participating in the underwriting shall also enter into such an agreement and perform its/their obligations hereunder.
(vi) Notification. Promptly notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement: (a) of the issuance of any stop order by the Commission in respect of such Registration Statement, (b) when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Applicable Securities Law, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, 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 in the light of the circumstances then existing.
(vii) Opinion and Comfort Letter. Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting Registration of Registrable Securities, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriter(s) for sale, if such Registrable Securities are being sold through underwriters, or on the date that the Registration Statement with respect to such securities becomes effective, if such Registrable Securities are not being sold through underwriters, (a) an opinion, dated as of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such Registration (or other appropriate counsel), in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to at least 60% in interest of the Holders requesting Registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and (b) letters dated as of (x) the effective date of the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities and (y) the closing date of the offering from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to at least 60% in interest of the Holders requesting Registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any.
Section 6. Information from Holders.
It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to Section 1, Section 2 or Section 3 with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be reasonably required to effectuate the Registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities.
Section 7. Termination of Registration Rights.
Unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, the public offering and registration rights provided in this Agreement terminate upon the earlier of (i) five (5) years after the closing of the Qualified IPO, or (ii) with respect to any Holder, at such time following a Qualified IPO as the Holder holds less than 1% of the outstanding securities of the Company and if all such Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by a Holder may then be sold without restrictions in any ninety (90) days period on or after the Qualified IPO pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.
Section 8. Assignment of Registration Rights.
The right to cause the Company to register the Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement may be assigned by any Holder to (i) any partner of any Holder which is a partnership, any member of any Holder which is a limited liability company, any family member or trust for the benefit of any individual Holder, any Affiliate of any Holder, or (ii) subject to the advance written notice to the Company, a transferee which acquires at least 2% of the total Registrable Securities (as adjusted for share dividends, splits, combinations, recapitalizations or similar events); provided, that: (a) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned; and (b) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement by executing and delivering to the Company a joinder agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit III.
Section 9. Market Stand-off.
Each of the Holders agrees that, so long as it holds any voting securities of the Company, upon request by the underwriters managing the IPO of the Company’s securities, it will enter into a mutually agreeable form of lock-up or similar agreement with such managing underwriter with a term commencing from the effective date of the Registration Statement covering such IPO or the pricing date of such offering as may be requested by the underwriters. The term of such lock up arrangement shall in no event exceed one hundred and eighty (180) days following the IPO. The foregoing agreement shall not apply in the case of the sale of any securities of the Company to an underwriter pursuant to any underwriting agreement or any offering after the IPO, and shall only be applicable to the Holders if all officers, directors and holders of one percent (1%) or more of the Company’s outstanding shares enter into similar agreements, and if the Company or any underwriter releases any officer, director or holder of one percent (1%) or more of the Company’s outstanding shares from his, her or its sale restrictions so undertaken, then each Holder shall be notified prior to such release and shall itself be simultaneously released to the same proportional extent. The Company shall require all future acquirers of the Company’s securities to execute a market stand-off agreement containing substantially similar provisions as those contained in this Section 9.
Section 10. Indemnification.
(i) By the Company. To the extent permitted by the Applicable Laws, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each selling Holder, such Holder’s officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, legal counsel and accountants, any underwriter (as defined in Applicable Securities Laws) for such Holder and each Person, if any, who controls (as defined in Applicable Securities Laws) such Holder or underwriter against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under laws which are applicable to the Company and relate to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any Registration, qualification, or compliance, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (each a “Violation”):
(a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus or any “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) used in connection with the sale of any Registrable Securities contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto;
(b) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or
(c) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of Applicable Securities Laws, or any rule or regulation promulgated under Applicable Securities Laws.
and the Company will reimburse each such Holder, its partner, officer, director, legal counsel, underwriter or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them, as incurred, in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity contained in this Section 10(i) 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), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such Registration by such Holder, or any partner, officer, director, legal counsel, underwriter or controlling person of such Holder.
(ii) By the Holders. To the extent permitted by the Applicable Laws, each selling Holder will, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, legal counsel and accountants, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in connection with such Registration and each Person, if any, who controls (as defined in Applicable Securities Laws) the Company, such underwriter or other Holder, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under Applicable Securities Laws, or any rule or regulation promulgated under Applicable Securities Laws, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such Registration; and each such Holder will reimburse any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 10(ii), for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity contained in this Section 10(ii) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such investigation or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); and provided, further, that in no event shall the total amount of the indemnities under this Section 10(ii) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder less any losses, costs and expenses such Holder has already incurred.
(iii) Notice of Indemnification Claim. Promptly after receipt by a party indemnified under Section 10(i) or Section 10(ii) (each an “Indemnified Party”) of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any party giving indemnification under Section 10(i) or Section 10(ii) (each an “Indemnifying Party”), 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 Indemnifying Parties. An Indemnified Party (together with all other Indemnified Parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonably incurred fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnifying Party, if representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the Indemnifying Party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such Indemnifying Party of any liability to the Indemnified Party under this Section 10, but the omission to deliver written notice to the Indemnifying Party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party otherwise than under this Section 10.
(iv) Contribution. If any indemnification provided for in Section 10(i) or Section 10(ii) 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 herein, 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. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10(iv), (a) no Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds to such Holder from the sale of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Holder pursuant to such Registration Statement less any losses, costs and expenses such Holder has already incurred; and (b) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
(v) Survival. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 10 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement under this Agreement.
Section 11. Reports under the Securities Act.
With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any comparable provision of any Applicable Securities Law that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without Registration or pursuant to a Registration on Form F-3 (or any comparable form in a jurisdiction other than the United States), the Company agrees to:
(i) make and keep publicly available information so long as necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date of the first registration under the Securities Act filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public;

(iii) at any time following sixty (60) days after the effective date of an IPO by the Company, promptly furnish to any Holder holding Registrable Securities, upon request (a) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of all Applicable Securities Laws at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements or, at any time after so qualified, that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form F-3 (or any form comparable thereto under Applicable Securities Laws of any jurisdiction where the Company’s securities are listed), (b) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents as may be filed by the Company with the Commission, and (c) such other information, or take any action, as may be reasonably requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the Commission, that permits the selling of any such securities without Registration or pursuant to Form F-3 (or any form comparable thereto under Applicable Securities Laws of any jurisdiction where the Company’s securities are listed).
