ARTICLE 2
REGISTRATION RIGHTS
2.1 Demand Registration.
2.1.1 Form S-1 Demand. If at any time one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of the registration statement for the IPO, the Company receives a request from a Demanding Holder that the Company file a Form S-1 registration statement with respect to any Registrable Securities then outstanding, then the Company shall (a) within ten (10) days after the date such request is given, give a Demand Notice to all Holders other than the Initiating Holders; and (b) use reasonable best efforts to as soon as practicable, and in any event within sixty (60) days after the date such request is given by the Initiating Holders, file a Form S-1 registration statement under the Securities Act covering all Registrable Securities that the Initiating Holders requested to be registered and any additional Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by any other Holders, as specified by notice given by each such Holder to the Company within twenty (20) days after the date the Demand Notice is given, and in each case, subject to the limitations of Section 2.1.3 and Section 2.3.
2.1.2 Form S-3 Demand. If at any time when the Company is eligible to use a Form S-3 registration statement, the Company receives a request from a Demanding Holder that the Company file a Form S-3 registration statement (including by means of a shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act providing for an offering to be made on a continuous basis if so requested) with respect to any or all of the outstanding Registrable Securities of such Holders, then the Company shall (a) within ten (10) days after the date such request is given, give a Demand Notice to all Holders other than the Initiating Holders; and (b) use reasonable best efforts to as soon as practicable, and in any event within forty-five (45) days after the date such request is given by the Initiating Holders, file a Form S-3 registration statement under the Securities Act covering all Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by any other Holders, as specified by notice given by each such Holder to the Company within twenty (20) days of the date the Demand Notice is given, and in each case, subject to the limitations of Section 2.1.3 and Section 2.3.
2.1.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing obligations, if the Company furnishes to Holders requesting a registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 a certificate signed by the Company’s chief executive officer stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its equityholders for such registration statement to either become effective or remain effective for as long as such registration statement otherwise would be required to remain effective, because such action would (a) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate reorganization, or other similar transaction involving the Company; (b) require premature disclosure of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential; or (c) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act, then the Company shall have the right to defer taking action with respect to such filing, and any time periods with respect to filing or effectiveness thereof shall be tolled correspondingly, for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after the request of the Initiating Holders is given; provided, however, that (i) the Company may not invoke this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period and (ii) the Company shall not register any securities for its own account or that of any other equityholder during such ninety (90) day period other than an Excluded Registration.
2.1.4 Limitations. The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to Section 2.1.1: (a) during the period that is sixty (60) days before the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date that is one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated registration, provided, that the Company is actively employing in good faith reasonable best efforts to cause
5
such registration statement to become effective; (b) after the Company has effected four (4) registrations pursuant to Section 2.1.1; (c) for a six (6) month period after the Company has effected a registration pursuant to Section 2.1.1; or (d) if the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of Registrable Securities that may be immediately registered on Form S-3 pursuant to a request made pursuant to Section 2.1.2. The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to Section 2.1.2: (i) during the period that is thirty (30) days before the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date that is ninety (90) days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated registration, provided, that the Company is actively employing in good faith reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; or (ii) if the Company has effected two (2) registrations pursuant to Section 2.1.2 within the six (6) month period immediately preceding the date of such request. A registration shall not be counted as “effected” for purposes of this Section 2.1.4 until such time as the applicable registration statement has been declared effective by the SEC, unless the Initiating Holders withdraw their request for such registration, elect not to pay the registration expenses therefor, and forfeit their right to one registration on Form S-1 or one registration on Form S-3 during the applicable six (6) month period immediately following the date of the initial registration request, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.6, in which case such withdrawn registration statement shall be counted as “effected” for purposes of this Section 2.1.4.
2.2 Company Registration. If the Company proposes to register (including, for this purpose, a registration effected by the Company for equityholders other than the Holders, whether as part of an underwritten offering of Registrable Securities included by the Company on a shelf registration statement or otherwise) any of its Common Equity under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than in an Excluded Registration), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder notice of such registration. Upon the request of each Holder given within twenty (20) days after such notice is given by the Company, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 2.3, cause to be registered all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be included in such registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 2.2 before the effective date of such registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. The expenses (other than Selling Expenses) of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 2.6.
2.3 Underwriting Requirements.
2.3.1 Inclusion. If, pursuant to Section 2.1, the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to Section 2.1, and the Company shall include such information in the Demand Notice. The underwriter(s) will be selected by the Board, provided such underwriter(s) is reasonably acceptable to the Initiating Holders. In such event, the right of any Holder to include such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company as provided in Section 2.4.5) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter(s) selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of
6
this Section 2.3, if the managing underwriter(s) advise(s) the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of equity securities to be underwritten, then the Initiating Holders shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that otherwise would be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated among such Holders of Registrable Securities, including the Initiating Holders, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the number of Registrable Securities owned or held by each Holder or in such other proportion as shall mutually be agreed to by all such selling Holders; provided, however, that the number of Registrable Securities owned or held by the Holders to be included in such underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities are first entirely excluded from the underwriting. To facilitate the allocation of equity securities in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of equity securities allocated to any Holder to the nearest one hundred (100) equity securities.
2.3.2 Underwriter Cutback. In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s equity pursuant to Section 2.2, the Company shall not be required to include any of the Holders’ Registrable Securities in such underwriting unless the Holders accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and its underwriters. If the total number of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by equityholders to be included in such offering exceeds the number of securities to be sold (other than by the Company) that the underwriters in their reasonable discretion determine is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters and the Company in their sole discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering (after reasonable consultation with the Holders who have elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration). If the underwriters determine that less than all of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered can be included in such offering, then the Registrable Securities that are included in such offering shall be allocated among the selling Holders in proportion (as nearly as practicable to) the number of Registrable Securities owned or held by each selling Holder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by all such selling Holders. To facilitate the allocation of equity securities in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of equity securities allocated to any Holder to the nearest one hundred (100) equity securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall (a) the number of Registrable Securities included in the offering be reduced unless all other securities (other than securities to be sold by the Company) are first entirely excluded from the offering or (b) the number of Registrable Securities included in the offering be reduced below thirty percent (30%) of the total number of securities included in such offering, unless such offering is the IPO, in which case the selling Holders may be excluded further if the underwriters make the determination described above and no other equityholder’s securities are included in such offering. For purposes of the provision in this Section 2.3.2 concerning apportionment, for any selling Holder that is a partnership, limited liability company, or corporation, the partners, members, retired partners, retired members, stockholders, and Affiliates of such Holder, or the estates and Immediate Family Members of any such partners, retired partners, members, and retired members and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing Persons, shall be deemed to be a single “selling Holder,” and any pro rata reduction with respect to such “selling Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate number of Registrable Securities owned or held by all Persons included in such “selling Holder,” as defined in this sentence.
7
2.3.3 Registration Not Effected. For purposes of Section 2.1, a registration shall not be counted as “effected” if (a) the registration statement relating thereto does not become effective or is not maintained effective for the period required pursuant to this ARTICLE 2, (b) the offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement is subject to a stop order, injunction, or similar order or requirement of the SEC or (c) as a result of an exercise of the underwriter’s cutback provisions in Section 2.3.1, fewer than seventy five percent (75%) of the total number of Registrable Securities that Holders have requested to be included in such registration statement are actually included.
2.4 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required under this ARTICLE 2 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to effect the registration and sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall as expeditiously as reasonably possible:
2.4.1 prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as promptly as practicable, and, upon the request of a Demanding Holder registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for a period of up to one hundred twenty (120) days or, if earlier, until the distribution contemplated in the registration statement has been completed; provided, however, that (a) such 120-day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period the Holder refrains, at the request of an underwriter of Common Equity (or other securities) of the Company, from selling any securities included in such registration, and (b) in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 that are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, subject to compliance with applicable SEC rules, such registration statement shall be kept effective continually until all such Registrable Securities are sold;
2.4.2 prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement, the prospectus and, if required, any Free Writing Prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the Securities Act in order to enable the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement;
2.4.3 furnish to the selling Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus and any Free Writing Prospectus, as required by the Securities Act, and such other documents as the Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate their disposition of their Registrable Securities;

2.8.2 Selling Holder Indemnification. To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each Person (if any), who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, legal counsel and accountants for the Company, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act), any other Holder selling securities in such registration statement, and any controlling Person of any such underwriter or other Holder, against any Damages, in each case only to the extent that such Damages arise out of or are based upon actions or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of such selling Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such selling Holder will pay to the Company and each other aforementioned Person any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred thereby in connection with investigating or defending any claim or proceeding from which Damages may result, as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that (a) the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.8.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (b) that in no event shall the aggregate amounts payable by any Holder by way of indemnity or contribution under Sections 2.8.2 and 2.8.4 exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder (net of any Selling Expenses paid by such Holder), except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder.
11
2.8.3 Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 2.8 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action) for which a party may be entitled to indemnification hereunder, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.8, give the indemnifying party notice of the commencement thereof. The indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in such action and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, participate jointly with any other indemnifying party to which notice has been given, and to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such action. The failure to give notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 2.8, solely to the extent that such failure prejudices the indemnifying party’s ability to defend such action.
2.8.4 Contribution. To provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either (y) any party otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 2.8 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case, notwithstanding the fact that this Section 2.8 provides for indemnification in such case, or (z) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any party hereto for which indemnification is provided under this Section 2.8, then, and in each such case, such parties will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of each of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the statements, omissions, or other actions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability, or expense, as well as to reflect 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 allegedly untrue statement of a material fact, or the omission or alleged omission of a material fact, relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, however, that:
(a) in any such case, (i) no Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Holder pursuant to such registration statement, and (ii) no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation; and
12
(b) in no event shall a Holder’s liability pursuant to this Section 2.8.4, when combined with the amounts paid or payable by such Holder pursuant to Section 2.8.2, exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder (net of any Selling Expenses paid by such Holder), except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder.
2.8.5 Underwriting Agreement Controls. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control.
2.8.6 Survival. Unless otherwise superseded by an underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering, the obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 2.8 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration under this ARTICLE 2, and otherwise shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
2.9 Reports under the Exchange Act. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of SEC Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company shall:
2.9.1 use reasonable best efforts to make and keep available adequate current public information, as those terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144, at all times after the effective date of the registration statement filed by the Company for the IPO;
2.9.2 use reasonable best efforts to file with the SEC 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 the Company has become subject to such reporting requirements); and
2.9.3 furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (a) to the extent accurate, a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the registration statement filed by the Company for the IPO), the Securities Act, and the Exchange Act (at any time after the Company has become subject to such reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time after the Company so qualifies); and (b) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such securities without registration (at any time after the Company has become subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act) or pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time after the Company so qualifies to use such form).
2.10 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date of this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding, the Company shall not grant registration rights or similar rights to any Person that have, or would have, priority over, or be pari passu with, the registration rights to be granted to the holders of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement. For clarity, the Company shall not enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would allow such holder or prospective holder to include such
13
securities in any registration if such agreement (a) would allow such holder or prospective holder to include a portion of its securities in any “piggyback” registration if such inclusion could reduce the number of Registrable Securities that selling Holders could be entitled to include in such registration under Sections 2.2 and 2.3 hereof, (b) would allow such holder or prospective holder to initiate a demand for registration of any of its securities at a time earlier than the Demanding Holders can demand registration under Section 2.1 hereof or (c) would allow such holder or prospective holder to include a portion of its securities in any registration initiated pursuant to Section 2.1.
2.11 “Market Stand-off” Agreement. Each Holder hereby agrees that, during the Standoff Period, such Holder will not, without the prior written consent of the Company or the managing underwriter,
2.11.1 lend, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right, or warrant to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Common Equity, or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable (directly or indirectly) for Common Equity, held immediately before the effective date of the registration statement for such offering; or
2.11.2 enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such securities held immediately before the effective date of the registration statement for such offering, whether any such transaction described in Section 2.11.1 or this Section 2.11.2 is to be settled by delivery of Common Equity or other securities, in cash, or otherwise.
The foregoing provisions of this Section 2.11 shall apply only to the IPO and shall not apply to (a) the sale of any equity securities to an underwriter pursuant to an underwriting agreement, (b) if the Holder is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other business entity, any transfer or disposition of Common Equity pursuant to a distribution to the Holder’s partners, members or stockholders, subsidiaries or affiliates (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) or to any investment fund or other entity that controls or manages the Holder (or is under common control or management with the Holder) provided that such transferee agrees to be bound by the same restrictions as are applicable to the Holder, or (c) any transfer or disposition of Common Equity pursuant to a bona fide third party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction made to all holders of Common Equity involving a change of control of the Company that, in each case, has been approved by the Board, provided that all of the Holder’s shares of Common Equity subject to the restrictions in this Section 2.11 that are not so transferred, sold, tendered or otherwise disposed of remain subject to such restrictions in this Section 2.11, and, provided that in the event that the tender offer, merger, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed, the shares of Common Equity owned by the Holder shall remain subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 2.11, and shall be applicable to the Holders only if all officers, directors, and equityholders individually owning more than one percent (1%) of the Company’s outstanding Common Equity are similarly bound. For purposes of this Section 2.11, the term “Company” shall include any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company into which the Company merges or consolidates. Any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of any or all such agreements by the Company or the underwriters (other than discretionary waivers for requests based on financial hardship for the sale of equity securities having an aggregate sales price not exceeding $100,000
14
per Holder) shall apply pro rata to all Holders subject to such agreements, based on the number of equity securities subject to such agreements. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company shall have the right to place restrictive legends on the certificates representing the equity securities subject to this Section 2.11 and to impose stop transfer instructions with respect to such equity securities until the end of such period. The underwriters in connection with such registration are intended third-party beneficiaries of this Section 2.11 and shall have the right, power, and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto. Each Holder further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters in connection with such registration that are consistent with this Section 2.11 or that are necessary to give further effect thereto. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall not apply to any equity securities purchased by a Holder in the IPO.
ARTICLE 3
TERMINATION
The right of any Holder to request registration or inclusion of Registrable Securities in any registration pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of: (a) when (i) such Holder and its Affiliates hold less than ten percent (10%) of the outstanding capital stock of the Company in the aggregate and are not serving as a director or officer of the Company, or such Holder and its Affiliates can obtain from reputable legal counsel (as reasonably determined by such Holder) using commercially reasonable efforts a legal opinion that each of such Holder and its Affiliates is not an “affiliate” of the Company as such term is defined under SEC Rule 144 and (ii) all of such Holder’s Registrable Securities and such Holder’s Affiliates’ Registrable Securities could be sold without any restriction on volume or manner of sale in any three-month period under SEC Rule 144 or any successor; and (b) upon a Change of Control. All of the rights of a Holder, other than any right of such Holder to enforce the obligations of the Company to such Holder arising under Section 2.6 or Section 2.8 under this Agreement, shall terminate automatically at such time as such Holder together with its Affiliates no longer owns (either directly or beneficially as the result of the ownership of shares of any holding company) at least two percent (2%) of the Registrable Securities.
ARTICLE 4
GENERAL PROVISIONS
4.1 Successors and Assigns. The rights under this Agreement may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a transferee of Registrable Securities that (a) is an Affiliate, partner, member, limited partner, retired or former partner, retired or former member, or stockholder of a Holder or such Holder’s Affiliate; (b) is a Holder’s Immediate Family Member or trust for the benefit of an individual Holder or one or more of such Holder’s Immediate Family Members; (c) after such transfer, holds at least two percent (2%) of the outstanding common stock of the Company; or (d) is a venture capital, private equity fund or other investment fund that is controlled by or under common control with one or more general partners or managing partners or managing members of, or shares the same management company with, the Holder; provided, however, that (i) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee and the Registrable Securities with respect to which such rights are being transferred; and (ii) such transferee agrees in a written instrument delivered to the Company to be bound by and subject to
15
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the provisions of Section 2.11. For the purposes of determining the number of Registrable Securities held by a transferee, the holdings of a transferee (A) that is an Affiliate, limited partner, retired or former partner, member, retired or former member, or stockholder of a Holder or such Holder’s Affiliate or is a venture capital, private equity fund or other investment fund that is controlled by or under common control with one or more general partners or managing partners or managing members of, or shares the same management company with, the Holder; (B) who is a Holder’s Immediate Family Member; or (C) that is a trust for the benefit of an individual Holder or such Holder’s Immediate Family Member shall be aggregated together and with those of the transferring Holder.
