Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant
to Rule 415 covering all of the Transfer Restricted Securities (the "Shelf
Registration Statement"). The Shelf Registration Statement
5
shall be on Form S-3 under the Securities Act or another appropriate form
permitting registration of such Transfer Restricted Securities for resale by the
Holders in the manner or manners reasonably designated by them (including,
without limitation, one or more underwritten offering). The Company shall use
all reasonable efforts, as described in Section 4, to cause the Shelf
Registration Statement to be declared effective pursuant to the Securities Act
as promptly as practicable following the filing thereof, but in no event later
than the Effectiveness Target Date, and to keep the Shelf Registration Statement
continuously effective under the Securities Act for 36 months after the Closing
Date (the "Effectiveness Period"), or such shorter period ending when either (1)
all Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement
have been sold in the manner set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement or
(2) there cease to be outstanding any Transfer Restricted Securities.
(b) Supplements and Amendments. The Company shall use all reasonable
efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective by
supplementing and amending the Shelf Registration Statement if required by the
rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used for
such Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the Securities Act, or if
reasonably requested by the holders of a majority of the Transfer Restricted
Securities (on a fully converted basis) covered by such Shelf Registration
Statement or by any underwriter of such Transfer Restricted Securities.
(c) Suspension of Shelf Registration Statement. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 2, but subject to compliance with
Section 3, the Company may, by delivering written notice to the Holders,
prohibit offers and sales of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to the
Shelf Registration Statement at any time if (A) (i) the Company is in possession
of material non-public information, (ii) the Company determines (based on advice
of counsel) that such prohibition is necessary in order to avoid a requirement
to disclose such material non-public information and (iii) the Company
determines in good faith that disclosure of such material non-public information
would not be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders or (B)
(i) the Company has made a public announcement relating to an acquisition or
business combination transaction including the Company and/or one or more of its
subsidiaries that is material to the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a
whole and (ii) the Company determines in good faith that (x) offers and sales of
Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement
prior to the consummation of such transaction (or such earlier date as the
Company shall determine) is not in the best interests of the Company and its
stockholders or (y) that it would be impracticable at the time to obtain any
financial statements relating to such acquisition or business combination
transaction that would be required to be set forth in the Shelf Registration
Statement; provided, however, that upon (i) the public disclosure by the Company
of the material non-public information described in clause (A) of this paragraph
or (ii) the abandonment or termination of, or the availability of the required
financial statements with respect to, a transaction described in clause (B) of
this
6
paragraph, the suspension of the use of the Shelf Registration Statement
pursuant to this Section 2(c) shall cease and the Company shall promptly comply
with Section 4(b) hereof.
3. Liquidated Damages
(a) The Company and the Initial Purchasers agree that the Holders of
Transfer Restricted Securities will suffer damages if the Company fails to
fulfill its obligations pursuant to Section 2 and Section 4(b) hereof and that
it would not be possible to ascertain the extent of such damages. Accordingly,
in the event of such failure by the Company to fulfill such obligations, the
Company hereby agrees to pay liquidated damages ("Liquidated Damages") to each
Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities under the circumstances and to the
extent set forth below:
(i) if the Shelf Registration Statement has not been filed with the
SEC on or prior to the Filing Date; or
(ii) if the Shelf Registration Statement is not declared effective by
the SEC on or prior to the Effectiveness Target Date; or
(iii) the Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective by
the SEC and thereafter ceases to be effective or the Prospectus contained
therein ceases to be usable (including as a result of a suspension of the use of
the Shelf Registration Statement as described in Section 2(c) hereof), for a
period of time that exceeds 90 days in any period of 365 consecutive days;
(any of the foregoing, a "Registration Default") then the Company shall pay
Liquidated Damages to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities during the
first 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of such Registration
Default in an amount equal to $.05 per week per $1,000 principal amount of Notes
and, if applicable, $.0015 per week per share (subject to adjustment in the
event of stock splits, stock recombinations, stock dividends and the like) of
Common Stock constituting Transfer Restricted Securities held by such Holder for
each week or portion thereof that the Registration Default continues. The
amount of such Liquidated Damages will increase by an additional $.05 per week
per $1,000 principal amount of Notes and, if applicable, by $.0015 per week per
share (subject to adjustment as set forth above) of Common Stock constituting
Transfer Restricted Securities for each subsequent 90-day period until all
Registration Defaults have been cured; provided, however, that Liquidated
Damages shall not at any time exceed $.25 per week per $1,000 principal amount
of Notes or, if applicable, $.0015 per week per share (subject to adjustment as
set forth above) of Common Stock constituting Transfer Restricted Securities.
Following the cure of all Registration Defaults relating to any Transfer
Restricted Securities, the accrual of Liquidated Damages with
7
respect to such Transfer Restricted Securities will cease. A Registration
Default under clause (i) above shall be cured on the date that the Shelf
Registration Statement is filed with the SEC; a Registration Default under
clause (ii) above shall be cured on the date that the Shelf Registration
Statement is declared effective by the SEC; and a Registration Default under
clause (iii) above shall be cured on the date the Shelf Registration Statement
is declared effective or the Prospectus contained therein again becomes usable.
(b) The Company shall notify the Trustee within one Business Day after
each and every date on which a Registration Default occurs. On each Damage
Payment Date, Liquidated Damages shall be paid by the Company to the Holders of
Transfer Restricted Securities as of the immediately preceding Record Date (as
defined in the Indenture) specified in the Indenture in the same manner interest
is paid to Holders of Notes pursuant to the Indenture. Each obligation to pay
Liquidated Damages shall be deemed to commence accruing on the date of the
applicable Registration Default and to cease accruing when all Registration
Defaults have been cured. In no event shall the Company pay Liquidated Damages
in excess of the applicable maximum weekly amount set forth above, regardless of
whether one or multiple Registration Defaults exist (e.g., subject to increase
as set forth above for each subsequent 90-day period, Liquidated Damages shall
equal $.05 per week per $1,000 principal amount of Notes during the first 90-day
period immediately following the occurrence of the first Registration Default
regardless of whether additional Registration Defaults occur during such 90-day
period).
4. Registration Procedures
In connection with the Company's registration obligations pursuant to
Section 2 above, the Company shall as expeditiously as possible:
(a) No fewer than five Business Days prior to the initial filing of a
Registration Statement or Prospectus and no fewer than two Business Days prior

proposed 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,
their Special Counsel and such underwriters, if any, and cause the officers and
directors of the Company, counsel to the Company and independent certified
public accountants to the Company to respond to such inquiries as shall be
necessary in connection with such Registration Statement, in the reasonable
opinion of Special Counsel and such underwriters, to conduct a reasonable
investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Company shall not
file any such Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any amendments or
8
supplements thereto (other than any document that would be incorporated or
deemed to be incorporated in the Registration Statement by reference) to which
the Holders of a majority of the Transfer Restricted Securities, their Special
Counsel, or the managing underwriters, if any, shall reasonably object on a
timely basis; provided, that the Company may assume, for the purposes of this
subparagraph (a), that objections to the inclusion of information specifically

or in the opinion of counsel to the Company required to be in the Registration
Statement, or specifically required by the Securities Act or other applicable
law, shall not be deemed to be reasonable;

not misleading; and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all Transfer Restricted
Securities covered by such Registration Statement during such period in
accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set
forth in such Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so
supplemented;
(c) Notify the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities to be sold or

such person), confirm such notice in writing, (i)(A) when a Prospectus or any
Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment is proposed to be filed, and,
(B) with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment,
when the same has become effective, (ii) of any request by the SEC or any other
Federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to a
Registration Statement or related Prospectus or for additional information,

governmental agency or any court of any stop order, order or injunction
suspending or enjoining the use or the effectiveness of a Registration Statement
or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (iv) if at any time any
of the representations and warranties of the Company contained in any agreement
(including any underwriting agreement) contemplated by Section 4(l) hereof cease
to be true and correct in all material respects, (v) 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 Transfer Restricted Securities for

such purpose,
9
and (vi) of the happening of any event that makes any statement made in such
Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated or
deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or
that requires the making of any changes in such Registration Statement,
Prospectus or documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, 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 not misleading, and that, in the case of the Prospectus, 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;

issued, obtain the withdrawal of any order enjoining or suspending the use or
effectiveness of a Registration Statement or the lifting of any suspension of
the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Transfer
Restricted Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable
moment;

of a majority of the Transfer Restricted Securities (on a fully converted basis)

managing underwriters, if any, and such Holders reasonably request should be
included therein relating to the terms of the sale of the Transfer Restricted
Securities of such Holder in the Prospectus, and (ii) make all required filings
of such Prospectus supplement or such post-effective amendment as soon as
practicable after the Company has received notification of the matters to be
incorporated in such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment;
rovided, however, that the Company shall not be required to take any action
pursuant to this Section 4(e) that would, in the opinion of counsel for the

the offering and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such
Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto;

reasonably requests in writing; keep each such registration or qualification (or
exemption therefrom) effective during the period such Registration Statement is
required to be kept effective and do any and all other acts or things necessary
or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Transfer
Restricted Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally
to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to take
any action that would subject it to general service of process in any such
jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or subject the Company to any tax
in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject;
(i) In connection with any sale or transfer of Transfer Restricted
Securities that will result in such securities no longer being Transfer

not bear any restrictive legends and shall be in a form eligible for deposit

which case the Company will cooperate in all reasonable respects with the filing
of such Registration Statement and the granting of such approvals as may be
necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof or the underwriters, if any,
to consummate the disposition of such Transfer Restricted Securities; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required to register the Transfer
Restricted Securities in any jurisdiction that would subject it to general
service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or

year) (i) commencing at the end of any fiscal quarter in
13
which Transfer Restricted Securities are sold to underwriters in a firm
commitment or reasonable efforts underwritten offering and (ii) if not sold to

as to which any registration is being effected to furnish to the Company such

Securities of any seller who unreasonably fails to furnish such information
within a reasonable time after receiving such request. Each seller of Transfer
Restricted Securities will furnish to the Company information concerning sales
made pursuant to the Registration Statement. Each such Holder agrees, by the
acquisition of Transfer Restricted Securities, and agrees to confirm such
agreement in writing upon request of the Company, to notify the Company as
promptly as practicable of any inaccuracy or change in information previously
furnished by such Holder to the Company or of the occurrence of any event as a
result of which any Prospectus relating to such registration contains or would
contain an untrue statement of a material fact regarding such Holder or such
Holder's intended method of distribution of such Transfer Restricted Securities,
or omits to state any material fact regarding such Holder or such Holder's
intended method of distribution of such Transfer Restricted Securities,
necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances then
existing, not misleading and promptly to furnish to the Company any additional
information required to correct and update any previously furnished information
or required so that such Prospectus shall not contain, with respect to such
Holder or the distribution of such Transfer Restricted Securities, an untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances then existing, not
misleading.
If any such Registration Statement refers to any Holder by name or
otherwise as the holder of any securities of the Company, then such Holder shall
have the right to require (i) the insertion therein of language, in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to such Holder, to the effect that the holding
by such Holder of such securities is not to be construed as
14
a recommendation by such Holder of the investment quality of the Company's
securities covered thereby and that such holding does not imply that such Holder
will assist in meeting any future financial requirements of the Company, or (ii)
in the event that such reference to such Holder by name or otherwise is not
required by the Securities Act or any similar Federal statute then in force, the
deletion of the reference to such Holder in any amendment or supplement to the
Registration Statement filed or prepared subsequent to the time that such
reference ceases to be required.
Each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities agrees by acquisition of
such Transfer Restricted Securities that, upon receipt of any notice from the
Company pursuant to Section 2(c) hereof or of the happening of any event of the
kind described in Section 4(c)(ii), 4(c)(iii), 4(c)(v) or 4(c)(vi) hereof, such
Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Transfer Restricted
Securities covered by such Registration Statement or Prospectus until such
Holder's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus
contemplated by Section 4(b) hereof, or until it is advised in writing (the
"Advice") by the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus may be
resumed, and, in either case, has received copies of any additional or
supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by
reference in such Prospectus, and, if so directed by the Company, such Holder
will deliver to the Company (at the Company's expense) all copies, other than
permanent file copies, then in such Holder's possession of the Prospectus
covering such Transfer Restricted Securities at the time of receipt of such
notice.
5. Registration Expenses
(a) All fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance

without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Transfer Restricted
Securities in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company and

(iv) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and Special Counsel for

majority of the Transfer Restricted Securities, on a fully converted basis), in
accordance with the provisions of Section 5(b) hereof, (v) fees and
disbursements of all independent certified public accountants referred to in
Section 4(m)(iii) (including, without limitation, the expenses of any special
audit and "cold comfort" letters required by or incident to such performance),
(vi) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Company so desires such
insurance, and (vii) fees and expenses of all other persons retained by the
Company. In addition, the Company shall pay its internal expenses (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 the securities to
be registered on any securities exchange. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Holders of the Transfer Restricted Securities being registered shall pay all
commissions, placement agent fees and underwriting discounts and commissions
attributable to the sale of such Transfer Restricted Securities and the fees and
disbursements of any counsel or other advisors or experts retained by such
Holders (severally or jointly), other than Special Counsel.
(b) In connection with any registration hereunder, the Company shall
reimburse the Holders of the Transfer Restricted Securities being registered or
tendered for in such registration for the reasonable fees and disbursements of
not more than one firm of attorneys representing the selling Holders (in
addition to any local counsel), which firm, if any, shall be chosen by the
Holders of a majority of the Transfer Restricted Securities (on a fully
converted basis).
6. Indemnification
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless (i) each Initial
Purchaser, (ii) each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities, (iii) each
person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) any of the foregoing (any of the persons
referred to in this clause (iii) being hereinafter referred to as a "controlling
person"), and (iv) the respective officers, directors, partners, employees,
representatives and agents of the Initial Purchasers, each Holder of Transfer
Restricted Securities, or any controlling person (any person referred to in
clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) may hereinafter be referred to as an
"Indemnified Person"), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and judgments caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement,
preliminary Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or caused by
any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the
16
statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or
supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made)
not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
judgments are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue
statement or omission based upon information relating to any Indemnified Person
furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person
expressly for use therein; provided that the foregoing indemnity with respect to
any preliminary Prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified
Person from whom the person asserting such losses, claims, damages, liabilities
and judgments purchased securities if such untrue statement or omission or
alleged untrue statement or omission made in such preliminary Prospectus is
eliminated or remedied in the Prospectus and a copy of the Prospectus shall not
have been furnished to such person in a timely manner; provided that the Company
has delivered the Prospectus to such Indemnified Person in requisite quantity on
a timely basis to permit such delivery or sending. This indemnity agreement
will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.
(b) In case any action shall be brought against any Indemnified
Person, based upon any Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the
Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto and with respect to which
indemnity may be sought against the Company, such Indemnified Person shall
promptly notify the Company in writing and the Company shall assume the defense
thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
Indemnified Person and payment of all fees and expenses. Any Indemnified Person
shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and
participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel
shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person, unless (i) the employment of
such counsel shall have been specifically authorized in writing by the Company,
(ii) the Company shall have failed to assume the defense and employ counsel or
(iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties)
include both such Indemnified Person and the Company, and such Indemnified
Person shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal
defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those
available to the Company (in which case the Company shall not have the right to
assume the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Person, it being
understood, however, that the Company shall not, in connection with any one such
action or separate but substantially similar or related actions 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 separate firm of
attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for all such Indemnified Persons,
which firm shall be designated in writing by such Indemnified Persons, and that
all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred). The
Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action effected
without its written consent, but if settled with its written consent, it agrees
to indemnify and hold harmless any Indemnified Person from and against any loss
or liability by reason of such settlement. Notwithstanding the immediately
preceding sentence, if in any
17
case where the indemnifying party agrees in writing subsequent to the date
hereof that it will be responsible for the fees and expenses of counsel for the
Indemnified Person and the Indemnified Person shall have requested the
indemnifying party to reimburse the Indemnified Person for such fees and
expenses of counsel as incurred, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be
liable for any settlement of any action effected without its written consent if
(i) such settlement is entered into more than twenty Business Days after receipt
by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying
party shall have failed to reimburse the Indemnified Person in accordance with
such request for reimbursement prior to the date of such settlement. No
indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified
party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect
of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could
have been sought hereunder by such indemnified 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.
(c) In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of
Transfer Restricted Securities is participating, such Holder of Transfer
Restricted Securities agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, its directors, its officers and any person controlling the
Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of
the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company
to each Indemnified Person but only with reference to information relating to
such Holder furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for
use in such Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any preliminary
prospectus. In case any action shall be brought against the Company, any of its
directors or officers, or any person controlling the Company based on such
Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any preliminary prospectus and in
respect of which indemnity may be sought against any Holder, the Holder shall
have the rights and duties given to the Company (except that if the Company
shall have assumed the defense thereof, such Holder shall not be required to do
so, but may employ separate counsel therein and participate in defense thereof
but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such
Holder), and the Company, its directors and officers, and any person controlling
the Company shall have the rights and duties given to the Indemnified Person, by
Section 6(b) hereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any other
liability which such Holder may otherwise have.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is
unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or judgments referred to therein, then each 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 and judgments in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect the relative fault of the Company and each such Indemnified Person in
connection with the
18
statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or judgments, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the Company and each such Indemnified
Person 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 Company or such Indemnified
Person and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
The Company and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just
and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6(d) were determined by
pro rata allocation (even if the Indemnified Persons were treated as one entity
for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take
account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or judgments referred to in the immediately
preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set
forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified
party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, no Indemnified Person shall be
required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the proceeds
received by it in connection with the sale of Transfer Restricted Securities
pursuant to this Agreement exceeds the amount of any damages which such
Indemnified Person has otherwise been required to pay or has paid by reason of
such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 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. The Indemnified
Persons' obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 6(d) are several in
proportion to the respective amount of Transfer Restricted Securities included
in any such Registration Statement by each Indemnified Person and not joint.
7. Rules 144 and 144A
The Company shall file the reports required to be filed by it under
the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time
it is not required to file such reports but in the past had been required to or
did file such reports, it will, upon the request of any holder of Transfer
Restricted Securities, make available other information as required by, and so
long as necessary to permit, sales of its Transfer Restricted Securities
pursuant to Rule 144 and Rule 144A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in
this Section 7 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its
securities pursuant to the Exchange Act.
19
8. Underwritten Registrations
(a) If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf
Registration Statement are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the
investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will
administer the offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority (on a
fully converted basis) of such Transfer Restricted Securities included in such
offering, subject to the consent of the Company (which will not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed).
No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder
unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person's Transfer Restricted
Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements
approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii)
completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities,
underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such
underwriting arrangements.
(b) Each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities agrees, if requested
(pursuant to a timely written notice) by the managing underwriters in an
underwritten offering or placement agent in a private offering of the Company's
securities, not to effect any sale or distribution (including a sale pursuant to
Rule 144(k) and Rule 144A, but excluding non-public sales to any of its
affiliates, officers, directors, employees and controlling persons of any of the
Notes, in the case of an offering of the Company's debt securities, or the
Common Stock, in the case of an offering of the Company's equity securities),
during the period ending 90 days after the closing date of the underwritten
offering.
(c) The Initial Purchasers and all Holders of Transfer Restricted
Securities agree that, notwithstanding any other term or provision hereof, the
Company shall not be required to enter into any agreements (including
underwriting agreements) or take any other actions contemplated by Section 4(l)
hereof unless requested in writing by the holders of at least 50% of the
Transfer Restricted Securities (on a fully converted basis) sold to the Initial
Purchasers pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.
The foregoing provisions shall not apply to any Holder of Transfer
Restricted Securities if such Holder is prevented by applicable statute or
regulation from entering into any such agreement.
20
9. Miscellaneous
(a) Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company, or by a holder
of Transfer Restricted Securities, of any of their obligations under this
Agreement, each holder of Transfer Restricted Securities or the Company, in
addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including
recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights
under this Agreement. The Company and each holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities agree that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for
any loss 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 waive the defense that
a remedy at law would be adequate.
(b) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company shall not enter into any
agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights
granted to the holders of Transfer Restricted Securities in this Agreement or
otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.
(c) No Piggyback on Registrations. The Company shall not grant to any
of its security holders (other than the Holders of Transfer Restricted
Securities in such capacity) the right to include any of its securities in any
Shelf Registration Statement other than Transfer Restricted Securities.
(d) 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, without the written consent of the Holders of a majority of
the then o utstanding Transfer Restricted Securities (on a fully converted
basis); provided, however, that, for the purposes of this Agreement, Transfer
Restricted Securities that are owned, directly or indirectly, by either the
Company or an Affiliate of the Company shall not be deemed outstanding.
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
Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities whose securities are being sold
pursuant to a Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly
affect the rights of other Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities may be
given by Holders of a majority of the Transfer Restricted Securities (on a fully
converted basis) being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Registration
Statement; provided, however, that the provisions of this sentence may not be
amended, modified, or supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of
the immediately preceding sentence.
21
(e) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for herein
shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, next-day air courier, certified
first-class mail, return receipt requested, telex or telecopy:
(i) if to the Company, as provided in the Purchase Agreement,
(ii) if to the Initial Purchasers, as provided in the Purchase
Agreement, or
(iii) if to any other person who is then the registered Holder of
any Transfer Restricted Securities, to the address of such
Holder as it appears in the Note or Common Stock register of
the Company.
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all such
communications shall be deemed to have been duly given: when delivered by hand,
if personally delivered; one Business Day after being timely delivered to a
next-day air courier; five Business Days after being deposited in the mail,
postage prepaid, if mailed; when answered back, if telexed; and when receipt is
acknowledged by the recipient's telecopier machine, if telecopied.
(f) 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 of Transfer Restricted
Securities. The Company may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of each Holder of Transfer Restricted
Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no transferee shall have any of the
rights granted under this Agreement until such transferee shall acknowledge its
rights and obligations hereunder by a signed written statement of such
transferee's acceptance of such rights and obligations.
(g) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which
when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and, all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.
(h) Governing Law.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York, as applied to contracts made and performed
within the State of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of law.
22
(i) Severability. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not
exclusive of any remedies provided by law. 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 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.
(j) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof. All
references made in this Agreement to "Section" and "paragraph" refer to such
Section or paragraph of this Agreement, unless expressly stated otherwise.
(k) Attorneys' Fees. In any action or proceeding brought to enforce
any provision of this Agreement, or where any provision hereof is validly
asserted as a defense, the prevailing party, as determined by the court, shall
be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys' fees in addition to any other
available remedy.
