2. Registration.

(a) On or prior to its applicable Filing Date, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement covering the resale of all Registrable Securities not already covered by an existing and effective Registration Statement. The Registration Statement also shall cover, to the extent allowable under the Securities Act and the rules promulgated thereunder (including Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock resulting from stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or other adjustments provided for in the Warrants with respect to the Registrable Securities. Each Registration Statement required to be filed under this Agreement shall be filed on Form S-3 (or if the Company is not then eligible to utilize Form S-3 to register for resale the Registrable Securities, it shall utilize such other available form appropriate for such purpose and shall contain (except if otherwise required pursuant to written comments received from the Commission upon a review of such Registration Statement, other than as to the characterization of any Holder as an underwriter, which shall not occur without such Holder’s written consent) the “Plan of Distribution” substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex A. The Company shall promptly 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. The Company shall cause each Registration Statement required to be filed under this Agreement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as practicable but, in any event, no later than its Effectiveness Date, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep each such Registration Statement continuously effective during its entire Effectiveness Period. By 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately following the Effective Date of each Registration Statement, the Company shall file with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424 under the Securities Act the final prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such Registration Statement (whether or not such filing is technically required under such Rule). Failure to file a final Prospectus as foresaid shall be deemed an Event under Section 6. If for any reason other than due solely to SEC Restrictions, a Registration Statement is effective but not all outstanding Registrable Securities are registered for resale pursuant thereto, then the Company shall prepare and file by the applicable Filing Date an additional Registration Statement to register the resale of all such unregistered Registrable Securities for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415. The Registration Statement shall not include any shares of Common Stock or other securities for the account of any other holder of Common Stock without the prior written consent of the Investor, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(b) The Company shall use its reasonable best 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) for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415. At such time as additional shares of Common Stock become issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants (whether due to an adjustment under the Warrants or otherwise), the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission one or more Registration Statements or amend any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(a), if such Registration Statement has not previously been declared effective covering the resale of the additional shares of Common Stock, but only to the extent the additional shares of Common Stock are not at the time covered by an effective Registration Statement. Such Registration Statement also shall cover, to the extent allowable under the Securities Act and the rules promulgated thereunder (including Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions. Such Registration Statement shall not include any shares of Common Stock or other securities for the account of any other holder without the prior written consent of the Investor.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2 and subject to the payment of liquidated damages pursuant to Section 6, if, after advocating with the Commission in accordance with Section 2(b), due to Commission Positions, the Company is nonetheless unable to include all Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(a) without characterizing any Holder as an underwriter then the Company may, following not less than three (3) Trading Days prior written notice to the Holders along with the calculations as to such Holder’s allotment, (i) use its reasonable best efforts to cause as many Registrable Securities for as many Holders as possible to be included in the Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(a) or 2(b) and remove from the Registration Statement all other Registrable Securities (the “Cut Back Shares”), (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to promptly file amendments to the Registration Statement and promptly file a new Registration Statement, in either case, to cover the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the Commission, or (iii) withdraw the Registration Statement and promptly file a new Registration Statement covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the Commission, on Form S-3 or such other form available to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering, and (iv) agree to such restrictions and limitations on the registration and resale of the Registrable Securities, in each case as the Commission may require in order for the Commission to allow each such Registration Statement to become effective; provided, that in no event may the Company name any Holder as an underwriter without such Holder’s prior written consent (such restrictions and limitations on the registration and resale, the “SEC Restrictions”). Unless the SEC Restrictions otherwise require, any cut-back imposed pursuant to this Section 2(c) shall be allocated among the Registrable Securities of the Holders on a pro rata basis. In addition, if the Company is, after compliance with the requirements of Sections 2(a), (b) and (c) unable to include all Registrable Securities in one or more Registration Statements, unless the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement agree otherwise, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to first register the Shares, prior to the registration of any Warrant Shares or Warrants. No liquidated damages under Section 6 shall accrue on or as to any Cut Back Shares, and the required Effectiveness Date for such Registration Statement will be tolled, until such time as the Company is able to effect the registration of the Cut Back Shares in accordance with any SEC Restrictions (such date, the “Restriction Termination Date”). From and after the Restriction Termination Date, all provisions of this Section 2 (including, without limitation, the liquidated damages provisions, subject to tolling as provided above) shall again be applicable to the Cut Back Shares (which, for avoidance of doubt, retain their character as “Registrable Securities”) so that the Company will be required to file with and cause to be declared effective by the Commission such additional Registration Statements in the time frames set forth herein as necessary to ultimately cause to be covered by effective Registration Statements all Registrable Securities (if such Registrable Securities cannot at such time be resold by the Holders thereof without volume limitations pursuant to Rule 144).

(d) Each Holder agrees to furnish to the Company a completed Questionnaire in the form attached to this Agreement as Annex B (a “Selling Holder Questionnaire”). The Company shall not be required to include the Registrable Securities of a Holder in a Registration Statement and shall not be required to pay any liquidated or other damages under Section 8 to any Holder who fails to furnish to the Company a fully completed Selling Holder Questionnaire at least two Trading Days prior to the Filing Date (subject to the requirements set forth in Section 3(a)).

3. Registration Procedures.

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

(a) Not less than five (5) Trading Days prior to the filing of a Registration Statement or any related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, the Company shall (i) furnish to each Holder copies such Registration Statement, prospectus, amendment or supplement proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review of such Holders, and (ii) cause its officers and directors, counsel and independent registered 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, 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 amendments or supplements thereto or one (1) Trading Day after the Holders have been so furnished copies of any related Prospectus. The Company shall not file a Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto in which the “Selling Stockholder” section thereof differs from the disclosure received from a Holder in its Selling Holder Questionnaire (as amended or supplemented). The Company shall not file a Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto in which it (i) characterizes any Holder as an underwriter, (ii) excludes a particular Holder due to such Holder refusing to be named as an underwriter, or (iii) reduces the number of Registrable Securities being registered on behalf of a Holder except pursuant to, in the case of subsection (iii), the Commission Positions, without, in each case, such Holder’s express written authorization.

(b) (i) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, to each Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective as to the applicable Registrable Securities for its Effectiveness Period, 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 and advise the Holders in writing when the Effectiveness Period has expired; (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented or amended to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; (iii) respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any comments received from the Commission with respect to each Registration Statement or any amendment thereto and, as promptly as reasonably practicable, but no fewer than five (5) Trading Days after their receipt from or prior to filing with the Commission, provide true and complete copies of and permit counsel designated by the Holders to review each Registration Statement, all amendments and supplements there to and all correspondence from and to the Commission relating to such Registration Statement that would not result in the disclosure to the Holders of material and non-public information concerning the Company; and (iv) comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the Registration Statement(s) and the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement.

(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) Use all reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement to be listed on each securities exchange, interdealer quotation system or other market on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed.

(e) Notify the Holders as promptly as practicable (and, in the case of (i)(A) below, not less than three Trading Days prior to such filing and, in the case of (v) below, not less than three Trading Days prior to the financial statements in any Registration Statement becoming ineligible for inclusion therein) 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 (the Company shall provide true and complete copies thereof and all written responses thereto to each of the Holders, but not information which the Company believes would constitute material and non-public information); and (C) with respect to each 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 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 such 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 such Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of such 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.

(f) Otherwise use all reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, including Rule 172, notify the Investor promptly if the Company no longer satisfies the conditions of Rule 172 and take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to facilitate the registration of the Registrable Securities hereunder; and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, but not later than the Availability Date (as defined below), an earnings statement covering a period of at least twelve months, beginning after the effective date of each Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, including Rule 158 promulgated thereunder (for the purpose of this Section 3(f), “Availability Date” means the 45th day following the end of the fourth fiscal quarter that includes the effective date of such Registration Statement, except that, if such fourth fiscal quarter is the last quarter of the Company’s fiscal year, “Availability Date” means the 90th day after the end of such fourth fiscal quarter).

(g) Use its 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.

(h) Furnish to each Holder and their legal counsel promptly after the same is prepared and publicly distributed, filed with the Commission, or received by the Company (but not later than three (3) Business Days after the filing date, receipt date or sending date, as the case may be), without charge, at least one conformed copy of each Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, each preliminary prospectus, free-writing prospectus and Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each letter written by or on behalf of the Company to the Commission or the staff of the Commission, and each item of correspondence from the Commission or the staff of the Commission, in each case, relating to such Registration Statement (other than any portion thereof which contains information for which the Company has sought confidential treatment), such number of copies of a Prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, any free-writing prospectus and all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents as each Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder that are covered by each Registration Statement, 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) promptly after the filing of such documents with the Commission; provided, that any such item that is available on the XXXXX system (or successor thereto) need not be furnished in physical form.

(k) Prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, register or qualify such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of all jurisdictions within the United States as any Holder may request, to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement(s); 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.

(l) Cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to the Registration Statement(s), 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 Holders may request.

(m) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 3(e)(v), as promptly as reasonably practicable, prepare a supplement or amendment, including a post-effective amendment, to the affected Registration Statement(s) 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, no Registration Statement nor any 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.

The Company from time to time shall take all actions necessary such that the number of members on the Board shall (a) except as otherwise provided herein, consist of no more than 5 non-Investor Directors until the First Director Expiration Date, (b) except as otherwise provided herein, consist of no more than 6 non-Investor Directors from and after the First Director Expiration Date until the Second Director Expiration Date, and (c) if necessary, be increased such that there are sufficient seats on the Board for the Investor Directors to serve on the Board and such vacancies (the “Investor Director Seats”) shall be filled by the Investor Directors, effective as of the Closing Date (or, if later, then the date that the Investor determines to appoint such Investor Directors). Each Investor Director appointed pursuant to this Section 5(a) shall continue to hold office until such Investor Director’s term expires, subject, however, to prior death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or termination of term of office as provided in Section 5(c).

(b) Continuing Designation of Investor Directors. Until the Second Director Expiration Date, at each meeting of the Company’s stockholders at which the election of directors to the Investor Director Seats is to be considered, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 5(a) and Section 5(c), nominate the Investor Director(s) designated by the Investor for election to the Board by the holders of voting capital stock and solicit proxies from the Company’s stockholders in favor of the election of Investor Directors. Subject to the provisions of Section 5(a) and Section 5(c), the Company shall use all reasonable best efforts to cause each Investor Director to be elected to the Board (including voting all unrestricted proxies in favor of the election of such Investor Director and including recommending approval of such Investor Director’s appointment to the Board) and shall not take any action which would reasonably be expected to diminish the prospects of such Investor Director(s) of being elected to the Board.

(c) Termination of Investor Director Designation Rights. The right of the Investor to designate two Investor Directors pursuant to Section 5(a) and Section 5(b) shall (i) automatically and without any action by the parties hereto, become a right to designate one Investor Director from and after the First Director Expiration Date, and (ii) terminate on the Second Director Expiration Date. If the right of the Investor to nominate one or more Investor Directors terminates pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, then (x) at the First Director Expiration Date, the Investor Director selected by the Investor, and (y) at the Second Director Expiration Date, each remaining Investor Director, shall promptly submit his or her resignation as a member of the Board and each applicable Sub Board with immediate effect.

(d) Resignation; Removal; Vacancies. Any elected Investor Director may resign from the Board at any time by giving written notice to the Board. The resignation is effective without acceptance when the notice is given to the Board, unless a later effective time is specified in the notice. So long as the Investor retains the right to designate Investor Directors, the Company shall use all reasonable best efforts to remove any Investor Director only if so directed in writing by the Investor. In the event of a vacancy on the Board resulting from the death, disqualification, resignation, retirement or termination of term of office of an Investor Director nominated by the Investor, the Company shall use all reasonable best efforts to fill such vacancy with a representative designated by the Investor as provided hereunder, in either case, to serve until the next annual or special meeting of the stockholders (and at such meeting, such representative, or another representative designated by the Investor, will be elected to the Board in the manner set forth in Section 5(b).

(e) Fees and Expenses. The Investor Directors shall be entitled to reimbursement of reasonable expenses incurred in such capacities, but shall not otherwise be entitled to any compensation from the Company in such capacities as Investor Directors.

(f) Subsidiary Boards; Committees. Subject to (a) the reasonable approval of the Governance Committee (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and (b) satisfaction of all legal and governance requirements regarding service as a director or member of any committee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, at the request of the Investor, the Company shall cause the Investor Directors to have proportional representation (relative to their percentage on the whole Board, but in no event less than one representative) on the boards (or equivalent governing body) of each Subsidiary (each, a “Sub Board”), and each committee of the Board and each Sub Board. The Company shall at the reasonable request of the Investor, so long as such request is not inconsistent with applicable law or exchange requirements, amend or modify any requirements regarding service as a director or member of any committee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(g) Reporting Information. With respect to each Investor Director designated pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5, the Investor shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause each Investor Director to provide to the Company all necessary assistance and information related to such Investor Director that is required under Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies or otherwise, including such Person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement (if applicable) and to serving as a director if elected.

(h) Directors and Officers Insurance; Indemnification Agreements. The Company shall purchase and maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy covering each Investor Director effective from the Closing Date (or such later date as such Investor Director is appointed pursuant to Section 5(a) or Section 5(b) and shall purchase and maintain for a period of not less than six years from the date of any Investor Director’s death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or termination of term of office as provided in 5(c), a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance tail policy for such Investor Director. The Company shall enter into a separate indemnification agreement with each of the Investor Directors.

6. Participation Right.

(a) From and after the Closing Date until the date that is the first to occur of (i) the expiration of the Warrant or (ii) the date upon which the Investor first owns less than 2% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock as of such date, the Investor shall have the right, at its election in accordance with this Section 6, to participate in any Subsequent Issuance. The Investor may elect to provide all or any portion of its Pro Rata Portion of such Subsequent Issuance. For purposes hereof, “Pro Rata Portion” means a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock (including for these purposes, any Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of the Warrant) the Investor beneficially owns as of such date, and the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of such date.

(b) At least thirty days prior to the anticipated consummation of any Subsequent Issuance, the Company shall deliver a written notice (each, a “Subsequent Issuance Notice”) to the Investor. The Subsequent Issuance Notice shall disclose in reasonable detail the proposed terms and conditions of the Subsequent Issuance, the amount of proceeds intended to be raised thereunder and the identity, and ownership of capital stock of the Company (if applicable), of any other prospective participants in such Subsequent Issuance, and shall include a term sheet or similar document relating thereto as an attachment. The Subsequent Issuance Notice shall constitute a binding offer to enter into the Subsequent Issuance with the Investor, up to its Pro Rata Portion, on the terms and conditions set forth in such Subsequent Issuance Notice.

(c) The Investor may elect to participate in such Subsequent Issuance and shall have the right, subject to Section 6(d) below, to purchase its Pro Rata Portion of the Subsequent Issuance on the terms and subject to the conditions specified in the Subsequent Issuance Notice by delivering written notice of such election to the Company within twenty five days after the delivery of the Subsequent Issuance Notice to the Investor (the “Election Period”). If the Investor elects to participate in the Subsequent Issuance, then the closing of the Subsequent Issuance shall occur on the date specified in the Subsequent Issuance Notice or on such other date as otherwise may be agreed by the Company and the Investor. If the Investor fails to deliver such election notice prior to the end of the Election Period, then the Investor shall be deemed to have notified the Company that it does not elect to participate in such Subsequent Issuance.

(d) If any portion of a Subsequent Issuance is not purchased by the Investor or the Persons identified in the Subsequent Issuance Notice within sixty days after the delivery of the relevant Subsequent Issuance Notice to the Investor on terms no less favorable to the Company than those described in such Subsequent Issuance Notice, then prior to consummating any subsequent Subsequent Issuance, the Company must deliver a new Subsequent Issuance Notice to the Investor and otherwise follow the procedures set forth in this Section 6 (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Investor will again have the right of participation set forth above in this Section 6).

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Investor’s right to participate in any Subsequent Issuance shall be subject to such participation not causing a violation of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation; provided, however, that the Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to discuss and explore ways to enable the Investor to participate in any Subsequent Issuance in compliance with the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

7. Delivery of Financial Statements.

(a) For so long as the Investor holds, or “beneficially owns” (within the meaning of Rule 13d 3 under the Exchange Act) at least 2% of the shares of Common Stock of the Company issued and outstanding at any time that the Company is not required to file periodic reports with the Commission, the Company shall deliver to the Investor:

1. as soon as practicable, but in any event within ninety days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, for each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries, an income statement for such fiscal year, a balance sheet, and statement of stockholder’s equity as of the end of such fiscal year, and a statement of cash flows for such fiscal year, such year end financial reports to be in reasonable detail, prepared in accordance with GAAP, and audited and certified by a nationally recognized accounting firm selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Investor;

2. as soon as practicable, but in any event within forty five days after the end of each of the first three quarters of each fiscal year of the Company, for the Company and each of its Subsidiaries, an unaudited income statement for such quarter, statement of cash flows for such quarter and an unaudited balance sheet as of the end of such quarter;

3. with respect to the financial statements called for in subsection (2) of this Section 7(a)(3), an instrument executed by the Chief Financial Officer or Chief Executive Officer of the Company and certifying that such financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied with prior practice for earlier periods (with the exception of footnotes that may be required by GAAP) and fairly present in all material respects the financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries and its results of operation for the period specified, subject to year end audit adjustment;

4. notices of events that have had or would reasonably be expected to have a material and adverse effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, as soon as practicable following the occurrence of any such event; and

5. such other information relating to the financial condition, business, prospects or corporate affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries as the Investor may from time to time reasonably request.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, at all times, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to deliver the financial statements listed in Sections 7(a)(1) and 7(a)(2) promptly after such statements are internally available.

(b) Inspection. For so long as the Investor holds at least 5% of the shares of Common Stock of the Company issued and outstanding at any time the Company is not required to file periodic reports with the Commission, (A) the Company shall permit the Investor, together with the Investor’s consultants and advisors, to visit and inspect the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ properties, to examine their respective books of account and records and to discuss the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ affairs, finances and accounts with their respective officers and employees, all at such reasonable times as may be requested by the Investor.

8. Events of Default and Remedies.

(a) It shall be considered an “Event of Default” if:

1. a Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to its required Effectiveness Date;

2. by the Business Day immediately following the Effective Date, the Company shall not have filed a “final” prospectus for the Registration Statement with the Commission under Rule 424(b) in accordance with the terms hereof (whether or not such a prospectus is technically required by such Rule);

3. after its Effective Date, without regard for the reason thereunder or efforts therefor, such Registration Statement ceases for any reason to be effective and available to the Holders as to all Registrable Securities to which it is required to cover at any time prior to the expiration of its Effectiveness Period for more than an aggregate of 60 Trading Days during any 12-month period (which need not be consecutive);

4. after a Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC, sales cannot be made pursuant to such Registration Statement for any reason (including by reason of a stop order or the Company’s failure to update the Registration Statement), except as excused pursuant to Section 2(b); or

5. the Company defaults in any way with its obligations under Section 5 or Section 6, and such default (other than with respect to Section 5 for which there shall be no cure period) continues for longer than 30 days.

(b) For purposes of this Section 8, the date on which such Event of Default occurs, or for purposes of clause (a)(3) the date which such 60 Trading Day-period 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 one percent (1.0%) of the aggregate Per Share Purchase Price paid by such Holder for Shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for the first 30 days of continuation of such Event of Default, which amount shall increase by one percent (1.0%) each thirtieth day thereafter that the applicable Event of Default has not been cured, subject to a maximum amount of three percent (3.0%) per 30-day period. The parties agree that (1) the Company will not be liable for liquidated damages under this Agreement with respect to any Cut Back Shares and (2) in no event will the Company be liable for liquidated damages under this Agreement in excess of one percent (1.0%) of the aggregate Investment Amount of the Holders in any 30-day period and the maximum aggregate liquidated damages payable to a Holder under this Agreement shall be three percent (3.0%) of the aggregate Per Share Purchase Price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement per 30-day period. 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, and shall cease to accrue (unless earlier cured) upon the expiration of the Effectiveness Period. The period during which an Event of Default is continuing is referred to herein as a “Blackout Period”. If the Company fails to pay any partial liquidated damages pursuant to this Section 8 in full within seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 18% 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 payments described above shall not affect the right of the Investors to seek any other relief including injunctive relief or request registration pursuant to Section 2. The amounts payable pursuant to this paragraph shall be paid monthly within five Business Days of the last day of each month following the commencement of the Blackout Period until the termination of the Blackout Period. Such payments shall be made to the Investor in cash.

9. Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the officers, directors, agents, brokers (including brokers who offer and sell Registrable Securities as principal as a result of a pledge or any failure to perform under a margin call of Common Stock), investment advisors, partners, members and employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles, notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of each of them, each Person who controls any such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, members, stockholders, partners, agents and employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles, notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of each such controlling Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, contingencies, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable costs of preparation and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim or proceeding, pending or threatened and the costs of enforcement thereof) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, arising out of or relating to (1) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, (2) any blue sky application or other document executed by the Company specifically for that purpose or based upon written information furnished by the Company filed in any state or other jurisdiction in order to qualify any or all of the Registrable Securities under the securities laws thereof, (3) any failure to register or qualify the Registrable Securities included in any such Registration Statement in any state where the Company or its agents has affirmatively undertaken or agreed in writing that the Company will undertake such registration or qualification on any Investor’s behalf, and will reimburse for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, contingency or expense or (4) any violation or alleged violation by the Company or its agents of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that (i) such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement, such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 3(e)(ii)-(v), the use by such Holder of an outdated or 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 any Advice or an amended or supplemented Prospectus, but only if and to the extent that following the receipt of the Advice or the amended or supplemented Prospectus the misstatement or omission giving rise to such Loss would have been corrected. The Company shall notify the Holders promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding of which the Company is aware in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Indemnification by Holders. Each Holder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling Persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising solely out of or based solely upon: (x) such Holder’s failure to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act or (y) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or arising solely out of or based solely upon any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent that, (1) such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use in such Registration Statement or such Prospectus, such Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (2) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 3(e)(ii)-(v), the use by such Holder of an outdated or 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 an Advice or an amended or supplemented Prospectus, but only if and to the extent that following the receipt of the Advice or the amended or supplemented Prospectus the misstatement or omission giving rise to such Loss would have been corrected. 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.

(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 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 proximately and materially adversely 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 such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that a 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 such 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. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, 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.

All 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 (regardless of whether it is ultimately determined that an Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder; provided, that the Indemnifying Party may require such Indemnified Party to undertake to reimburse all such fees and expenses to the extent it is finally judicially determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder).

(d) Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section 9(a) or 9(b) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless for any Losses (by reason of public policy or otherwise), 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, 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 Section 9(c), 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 9(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 9(d), no Holder shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the 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.

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.

10. Miscellaneous.

(a) Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder, of any of their 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, will 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 waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

(b) No Piggyback on Registrations. Except as set forth on Schedule 10(b) attached hereto or as otherwise agreed in writing by the Investor, 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 a Registration Statement other than the Registrable Securities, and the Company shall not during the Effectiveness Period 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 10(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 the Registration Statement.

(d) Discontinued Disposition. Each Holder agrees by its acquisition of such Registrable Securities that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 3(e), such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented Prospectus and/or amended Registration Statement 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 or Registration Statement. The Company will use its 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).

(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 stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall deliver to each Holder written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen calendar days after 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, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights.

(f) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this Section 10(f), 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 no less than a majority in interest of the then outstanding Registrable Securities. 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 certain Holders and that does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders may be given by Holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities to which such waiver or consent relates; provided, further that no amendment or waiver to any provision of this Agreement relating to naming any Holder or requiring the naming of any Holder as an underwriter may be effected in any manner without such Holder’s prior written consent. Section 2(a) may not be amended or waived except by written consent of each Holder affected by such amendment or waiver.

(g) Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (a) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile (provided the sender receives a machine-generated confirmation of successful transmission) at the facsimile number specified in this Section prior to 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day, (b) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified in this Section on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any Trading Day, (c) the Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (d) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given.

(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 its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Holder. Each Holder may assign their respective rights hereunder in the manner and to the Persons as the Investor’s rights under the Purchase Agreement are permitted to be transferred.

(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 10(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.

(j) Execution and Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of 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.

Annex A

FORM OF PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We and the selling stockholder may sell the securities offered under this prospectus through agents, underwriters or dealers, or directly to one or more purchasers. As used in this prospectus, the term selling stockholder includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from the selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer.

We or the selling stockholder may designate agents who agree to use their reasonable efforts to solicit purchases for the period of their appointment or to sell securities on a continuing basis. We may include shares of the selling stockholder in conjunction with underwritten sales by us of shares of our common stock.

If we or the selling stockholder use underwriters for a sale of securities, the underwriters will acquire the securities for their own account. The underwriters may resell the securities in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to the conditions stated in the applicable underwriting agreement. The underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the securities of the series offered if any of the securities of that series are purchased. Any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

We and the selling stockholder may sell securities directly to one or more purchasers without using underwriters or agents.

Sales of common stock hereunder also may be effected by the selling stockholder from time to time in one or more types of transactions on the Nasdaq Stock Market or any other national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which our common stock may be listed at the time of sale, in the over-the-counter market, in transactions otherwise than on such exchanges or the over-the-counter market, including negotiated transactions, ordinary brokers’ transactions, through options transactions relating to the shares, or a combination of such methods of sale, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at negotiated prices or at fixed prices. The selling stockholder may also sell shares of common stock in 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, in an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange, in short sales effected after the date the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC.

The selling stockholder and underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of the securities may be underwriters as defined in the Securities Act, and any discounts or commissions they receive from us and any profit on their resale of the securities may be treated as underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. The applicable prospectus supplement will identify any underwriters, dealers or agents and will describe their compensation. We or the selling stockholder may have agreements with the underwriters, dealers and agents to indemnify them against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with or perform services for us or our subsidiaries in the ordinary course of their business.

A-1

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, each class or series of securities will be a new issue with no established trading market, other than the common stock, shares of which are listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market. We may elect to list any other class or series of securities on any exchange, but we are not obligated to do so. It is possible that one or more underwriters may make a market in a class or series of securities, but the underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. We cannot give any assurance as to the liquidity of the trading market for any of the securities.

We or the selling stockholder may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by us or the selling stockholder or borrowed from us, the selling stockholder or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of stock, and may use securities received from us in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of stock. We or the selling stockholder may also loan or pledge securities covered by this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement to third parties, who may sell the loaned securities or, in an event of default in the case of a pledge, sell the pledged securities pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment).

Any underwriter may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions, short-covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act. Over-allotment involves sales in excess of the offering size, which create a short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum. Short-covering transactions involve purchases of the securities in the open market after the distribution is completed to cover short positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a dealer when the securities originally sold by the dealer are purchased in a covering transaction to cover short positions. Those activities may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would otherwise be. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue any of the activities at any time.

The selling stockholder is subject to the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, including Regulation M. This regulation may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of common stock offered in this prospectus by the selling stockholder. The anti-manipulation rules under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholder and its affiliates. Furthermore, Regulation M may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares to engage in market-making activities for the particular securities being distributed for a period of up to five business days before the distribution. The restrictions may affect the marketability of the shares and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities for the shares.

A-2

To the extent required, this prospectus may be amended and/or supplemented from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution. Instead of selling the shares of common stock under this prospectus, the selling stockholder may sell the shares of common stock in compliance with the provisions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, or pursuant to other available exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

We have advised the selling stockholder that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholder and its affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholder for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholder may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholder against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.
