2. REGISTRATION RIGHTS
(a) Requested Registration.
(i) Request for Registration. If the Company shall
receive from an Initiating Holder, at any time, a written request that
the Company effect any registration with respect to all or a part of the
Registrable Securities, the Company will:
(A) promptly give written notice of the proposed
registration, qualification or compliance to all other Holders;
and
(B) as soon as practicable, use its diligent
best efforts to effect such registration (including, without
limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file
post-effective amendments, appropriate qualification under
applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and
appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under
the Securities Act) as may be so requested and as would permit
or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion
of such Registrable Securities as are specified
3
4
in such request, together with all or such portion of the
Registrable Securities of any Holder or Holders joining in such
request as are specified in a written request received by the
Company within 10 business days after written notice from the
Company is given under Section 2(a)(i)(A) above; provided that
the Company shall not be obligated to effect, or take any action
to effect, any such registration pursuant to this Section 2(a):
(w) In any particular jurisdiction in
which the Company would be required to execute a general
consent to service of process in effecting such
registration, qualification or compliance, unless the
Company is already subject to service in such
jurisdiction and except as may be required by the
Securities Act or applicable rules or regulations
thereunder;
(x) If QM is the Initiating Holder,
after the Company has effected two (2) such
registrations initiated by QM pursuant to this Section
2(a) and such registrations have been declared or
ordered effective and the sales of such Registrable
Securities shall have closed; or
(y) If Warburg is the Initiating Holder,
after the Company has effected two (2) such
registrations initiated by Warburg pursuant to this
Section 2(a) and such registrations have been declared
or ordered effective and the sales of such Registrable
Securities shall have closed; or
(z) If the Registrable Securities
requested by all Holders to be registered pursuant to
such request do not have an anticipated aggregate public
offering price (before any underwriting discounts and
commissions) of not less than $15,000,000 (or
$30,000,000 if such requested registration is the
Initial Public Offering).
The registration statement filed pursuant to the request of the
Initiating Holders may, subject to the provisions of Section 2(a)(ii) below,
include other securities of the Company which are held by Persons who, by virtue
of agreements with the Company, are entitled to include their securities in any
such registration ("Other Stockholders").
The registration rights set forth in this Section 2 may be
assigned, in whole or in part, to any transferee of Registrable Securities (who
shall be bound by all obligations of this Agreement).
(ii) Underwriting. If the Initiating Holders intend to
distribute the Registrable Securities covered by
4
5
their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the
Company as a part of their request made pursuant to Section 2(a).
If Other Stockholders request such inclusion, the Holders shall
offer to include the securities of such Other Stockholders in the underwriting
and may condition such offer on their acceptance of the further applicable
provisions of this Section 2. The Holders whose shares are to be included in
such registration and the Company shall (together with all Other Stockholders
proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting) enter into
an underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative of the
underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Initiating
Holders and reasonably acceptable to the Company. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Section 2(a), if the representative advises the Holders in
writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to
be underwritten, the securities of the Company held by Other Stockholders shall
be excluded from such registration to the extent so required by such limitation.
If, after the exclusion of such shares, further reductions are still required,
the number of shares included in the registration by each Holder shall be
reduced on a pro rata basis (based on the number of shares held by such Holder),
by such minimum number of shares as is necessary to comply with such request. No
Registrable Securities or any other securities excluded from the underwriting by
reason of the underwriter's marketing limitation shall be included in such
registration. If any Other Stockholder who has requested inclusion in such
registration as provided above disapproves of the terms of the underwriting,
such person may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company,
the underwriter and the Initiating Holders. The securities so withdrawn shall
also be withdrawn from registration. If the underwriter has not limited the
number of Registrable Securities or other securities to be underwritten, the
Company and officers and directors of the Company may include its or their
securities for its or their own account in such registration if the
representative so agrees and if the number of Registrable Securities and other
securities which would otherwise have been included in such registration and
underwriting will not thereby be limited.
(b) Company Registration.
(i) If the Company shall determine to register any of
its equity securities either for its own account or for the account of
Other Stockholders, other than a registration relating solely to
employee benefit plans, or a registration relating solely to a
Commission Rule 145 transaction, or a registration on any registration
form which does not permit secondary sales or does not include
substantially the same information as would be required to be included
in a registration statement covering the sale of Registrable Securities,
the Company will:
5
6
(A) promptly give to each of the Holders a
written notice thereof (which shall include a list of the
jurisdictions in which the Company intends to attempt to qualify
such securities under the applicable blue sky or other state
securities laws); and
(B) include in such registration (and any
related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance),
and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable
Securities specified in a written request or requests, made by
the Holders within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the
written notice from the Company described in clause (i) above,
except as set forth in Section 2(b)(ii) below. Such written
request may specify all or a part of the Holders' Registrable
Securities.
(ii) Underwriting. If the registration of which the
Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an
underwriting, the Company shall so advise each of the Holders as a part
of the written notice given pursuant to Section 2(b)(i)(A). In such
event, the right of each of the Holders to registration pursuant to this
Section 2(b) shall be conditioned upon such Holders' participation in
such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holders' Registrable
Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. The
Holders whose shares are to be included in such registration shall
(together with the Company and the Other Stockholders distributing their
securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting
agreement in customary form with the representative of the underwriter
or underwriters selected for underwriting by the Company.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2(b), if the
representative determines that marketing factors require a limitation on
the number of shares to be underwritten, and (x) if such registration is
the Initial Public Offering, the representative may (subject to the
allocation priority set forth below) exclude from such registration and
underwriting some or all of the Registrable Securities which would
otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and (y) if such registration
is other than the Initial Public Offering, the representative may
(subject to the allocation priority set forth below) limit the number of
Registrable Securities to be included in the registration and
underwriting to not less than twenty five percent (25%) of the shares
included therein (based on the number of shares). The Company shall so
advise all holders of securities requesting registration, and the number
of shares of securities that are entitled to be included in the
registration and underwriting shall be allocated in the following
manner: The securities of the Company held by officers, directors and
Other Stockholders of the Company (other than Registrable Securities and
other
6
7
than securities held by holders who by contractual right demanded such
registration ("Demanding Holders")) shall be excluded from such
registration and underwriting to the extent required by such limitation,
and, if a limitation on the number of shares is still required, the
number of shares that may be included in the registration and
underwriting by each of the Holders and Demanding Holders shall be
reduced, on a pro rata basis (based on the number of shares held by such
Holder), by such minimum number of shares as is necessary to comply with
such limitation. If any of the Holders or any officer, director or Other
Stockholder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, he may
elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the
underwriter. Any Registrable Securities or other securities excluded or
withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such
registration. Upon the occurrence of any such withdrawal, the
representative shall (subject to the allocation priority set forth
above) allocate additional shares of securities to be included in the
registration and underwriting, subject to compliance with such
limitation.
(c) Form S-3. Following the Initial Public Offering, the Company
shall use its best efforts to qualify for registration on Form S-3 for secondary
sales. After the Company has qualified for the use of Form S-3, the Holders,
shall have the right to request unlimited registrations on Form S-3 (such
requests shall be in writing and shall state the number of shares of Registrable
Securities to be disposed of and the intended method of disposition of shares by
such holders), subject only to the following:
(i) The Company shall not be required to effect a
registration pursuant to this Section 2(c) unless the Holder or Holders
requesting registration propose to dispose of shares of Registrable
Securities, having an aggregate price to the public (before deduction of
underwriting discounts and expenses of sale) of more than $5,000,000.
(ii) The Company shall not be required to effect a
registration pursuant to this Section 2(c) within 180 days of the
effective date of the most recent registration pursuant to this Section
2 in which securities held by the requesting Holder could have been
included for sale or distribution.
(iii) The Company shall not be obligated to effect any
registration pursuant to this Section 2(c) in any particular
jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general
consent to service of process in effecting such registration,
qualification or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to
service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the
Securities Act or applicable rules or regulations thereunder.
7
8
The Company shall give written notice to all Holders, of the receipt of
a request for registration pursuant to this Section 2(c) and shall provide a
reasonable opportunity for other Holders to participate in the registration,
provided that if the registration is for an underwritten offering, the terms of
Section 2(a)(ii) shall apply to all participants in such offering. Subject to
the foregoing, the Company will use its best efforts to effect promptly the
registration of all shares of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 to the extent
requested by the Holder or Holders thereof for purposes of disposition. If
Warburg requests a registration in order to facilitate a distribution by it to
its limited partners, the registration shall include its limited and general
partners.
(d) Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred
in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to
this Section 2 shall be borne by the Company, and all Selling Expenses shall be
borne by the Holders of the securities so registered pro rata on the basis of
the number of their shares so registered.
(e) Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration
effected by the Company pursuant to this Section 2, the Company will keep the
Holders, as applicable, advised in writing as to the initiation of each
registration and as to the completion thereof. At its expense, the Company will:
(i) keep such registration effective for a period of one hundred
twenty (120) days or until the Holders, as applicable, have completed
the distribution described in the registration statement relating
thereto, whichever first occurs; provided, however, that (A) such
120-day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the
period during which the Holders, as applicable, refrain from selling any
securities included in such registration in accordance with provisions
in Section 2(i) hereof; and (B) in the case of any registration of
Registrable Securities on Form S-3 which are intended to be offered on a
continuous or delayed basis, such 120-day period shall be extended until
all such Registrable Securities are sold, provided that Rule 415, or any
successor rule under the Securities Act, permits an offering on a
continuous or delayed basis, and provided further that applicable rules
under the Securities Act governing the obligation to file a
post-effective amendment permit, in lieu of filing a post-effective
amendment which (y) includes any prospectus required by Section 10(a) of
the Securities Act or (z) reflects facts or events representing a
material or fundamental change in the information set forth in the
registration statement, the incorporation by reference of information
required to be included in (y) and (z) above to be contained in periodic
reports filed pursuant to Section 12 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act in the
registration statement;
8
9
(ii) furnish such number of prospectuses and other documents
incident thereto as each of the Holders, as applicable, from time to
time may reasonably request;
(iii) notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by
such registration at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of
any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such
registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement
of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing; and
(iv) furnish, on the date that such Registrable Securities are
delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being
sold through underwriters or, if such securities are not being sold
through underwriters, on the date that the registration statement with
respect to such securities becomes effective, (1) an opinion, dated as
of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes
of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to
underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably
satisfactory to a majority in interest of the Holders participating in
such registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the
Holders participating in such registration and (2) a letter, dated as of
such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the
Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent
certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public
offering and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the
Holders participating in such registration, addressed to the
underwriters, if any, and if permitted by applicable accounting
standards, to the Holders participating in such registration.
(f) Indemnification.
(i) The Company will indemnify each of the Holders, as
applicable, each of its officers, directors and partners, and each
person controlling each of the Holders, with respect to each
registration which has been effected pursuant to this Section 2, and
each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls any underwriter,
against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or
alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any
prospectus, offering circular or other document (including any related
registration statement, notification or the like) incident to any such
registration, qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or
9
10
alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or
any violation by the Company of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act
or any rule or regulation thereunder applicable to the Company and
relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection
with any such registration, qualification or compliance, and will
reimburse each of the Holders, each of its officers, directors and
partners, and each person controlling each of the Holders, each such
underwriter and each person who controls any such underwriter, for any
legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
investigating and defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or
action, provided that the Company will not be liable in any such case to
the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense
arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission based upon
written information furnished to the Company by the Holders or
underwriter and stated to be specifically for use therein.
(ii) Each of the Holders will, if Registrable Securities held by
it are included in the securities as to which such registration,
qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify the Company,
each of its directors and officers and each underwriter, if any, of the
Company's securities covered by such a registration statement, each
person who controls the Company or such underwriter, each Other
Stockholder and each of their officers, directors, and partners, and
each person controlling such Other Stockholder against all claims,
losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising
out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of
a material fact contained in any such registration statement,
prospectus, offering circular or other document made by such Holder, or
any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements by
such Holder therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and
such Other Stockholders, directors, officers, partners, persons,
underwriters or control persons for any legal or any other expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any
such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the
extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged
untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such
registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document
in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to
the Company by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use
therein; provided, however, that the obligations of each of the Holders
hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds to
such Holder of securities sold as contemplated herein.
10
11
(iii) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section
2(f) (the "Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required
to provide indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after
such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which
indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to
assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting
therefrom; provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall
conduct the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom,
shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not
unreasonably be withheld) and the Indemnified Party may participate in
such defense at such party's expense (unless the Indemnified Party shall
have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest
between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in such action,
in which case the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense
of the Indemnifying Party), and provided further that the failure of any
Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve
the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 2 unless
the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. No Indemnifying
Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation shall, except with
the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment
or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional
term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified
Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or
litigation. Each Indemnified Party shall furnish such information
regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party may
reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in
connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting
therefrom.
(iv) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2(f) is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an
Indemnified Party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or
expense referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of
indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such
loss, liability, claim, damage or expense in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on
the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other in connection
with the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, liability,
claim, damage or expense, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the
Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue (or alleged untrue) statement of a material
fact or the omission (or alleged omission) to state a material fact
relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the
Indemnified Party and the parties' relative intent,
11
12
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission.
(v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the
provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the
underwriting agreement entered into in connection with any underwritten
public offering contemplated by this Agreement are in conflict with the
foregoing provisions, the provisions in such underwriting agreement
shall be controlling.
(vi) The foregoing indemnity agreement of the Company and
Holders is subject to the condition that, insofar as they relate to any
loss, claim, liability or damage made in a preliminary prospectus but
eliminated or remedied in the amended prospectus on file with the
Commission at the time the registration statement in question becomes
effective or the amended prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant
to Commission Rule 424(b) (the "Final Prospectus"), such indemnity or
contribution agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any underwriter
or Holder if a copy of the Final Prospectus was furnished to the
underwriter and was not furnished to the person asserting the loss,
liability, claim or damage at or prior to the time such action is
required by the Securities Act.
(g) Information by the Holders.
(i) Each of the Holders holding securities included in any
registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding
such Holder and the distribution proposed by such Holder as the Company
may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in
connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred
to in this Section 2.
(ii) In the event that, either immediately prior to or
subsequent to the effectiveness of any registration statement, any
Holder shall distribute Registrable Securities to its partners, such
Holder shall so advise the Company and provide such information as shall
be necessary to permit an amendment to such registration statement to
provide information with respect to such partners, as selling
securityholders. Promptly following receipt of such information, the
Company shall file an appropriate amendment to such registration
statement reflecting the information so provided. Any incremental
expense to the Company resulting from such amendment shall be borne by
such Holder.
(h) Rule 144 Reporting.
12
13
With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules
and regulations of the Commission which may permit the sale of restricted
securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to:
(i) make and keep public information available as those terms
are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act ("Rule
144"), at all times from and after ninety (90) days following the
effective date of the first registration under the Securities Act filed
by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public;
(ii) use its best efforts to file with the Commission in a
timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company
under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act at any time after it has
become subject to such reporting requirements; and
(iii) so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities,
furnish to the Holder upon request, a written statement by the Company
as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any
time from and after ninety (90) days following the effective date of the
first registration statement filed by the Company for an offering of its
securities to the general public), and of the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting
requirements), a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of
the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed as the Holder
may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of
the Commission allowing the Holder to sell any such securities without
registration.
(i) "Market Stand-off" Agreement. Each of the Holders agrees, if
requested by the Company and an underwriter of equity securities of the Company,
not to sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Registrable Securities held
by such Holder during the 180-day period following the effective date of a
registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act, provided
that:
(i) such agreement only applies to the Initial Public Offering;
and
(ii) all officers and directors of the Company enter into
similar agreements.
If requested by the underwriters, the Holders shall execute a separate
agreement to the foregoing effect. The Company may impose stop-transfer
instructions with respect to the shares (or securities) subject to the foregoing
restriction until the end of said 180-day period. The provisions of this Section
2(i) shall
13
14
be binding upon any transferee who acquires Registrable Securities.
(j) Termination. The registration rights set forth in this
Section 2 shall not be available to any Holder if, in the opinion of counsel to
the Company, all of the Registrable Securities then owned by such Holder could
be sold in any 90-day period pursuant to Rule 144 (without giving effect to the
provisions of Rule 144(k)).
3. MISCELLANEOUS
(a) Directly or Indirectly. Where any provision in this
Agreement refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is
prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action

construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to
contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State.
