The Company shall keep the Registration Statement continuously effective during the Effectiveness Period.

Such payments shall be paid in U.S. dollar in immediately available funds at the end of each month during which any of (x) or (y) above remains outstanding.

(b) Demand Registration Rights.

(i) Generally. Subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 2(b), if, at any time after the Filing Deadline and prior to the expiration of the Effectiveness Period, (x) (I) additional Registrable Securities which have not been included in the Registration Statement of the Company pursuant to Section 2(a) above, including without limitation the Participation Shares, are issued or issuable to the Purchasers or (II) a Registration Statement covering the sale of all of the Registrable Securities is not then effective and available for sales thereof by the Purchasers, and (y) the Company receives from the Purchasers a written request (the “Demand Request”) requesting that the Company effect a registration with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities (which request shall state the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be disposed of and the intended methods of disposition of such shares by the Purchasers), the Company shall as soon as practicable, file and use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such registration (including, without limitation, filing post-effective amendments, appropriate qualifications under applicable U.S. blue sky or other state securities laws, and appropriate compliance with the Securities Act) and to permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in the Demand Request.

(ii) Limitations. The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any such registration pursuant to this Section 2(b):

(A) If the Purchasers, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration statement (the “Other Holders”), propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate offering price (after deduction of underwriters’ discounts and expenses related to issuance) of less than U.S.$10,000,000;

(B) After the Company has initiated one (1) such registrations pursuant to this Section 2(b) (counting for these purposes only (I) registrations which have been declared or ordered effective, and (II) a demand registration right under this Section 2(b) that the Purchasers have affirmatively forfeited); or

(C) During the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated registration; provided that the Company is actively employing commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective.

(iii) Deferral. If (A) in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company (excluding any interested directors), the filing of a registration statement under this Section 2(b) covering the Registrable Securities would be materially detrimental to the Company and the Board of Directors of the Company (excluding any interested directors) concludes, as a result, that it is in the best interests of the Company to defer the filing of such registration statement at such time, and (B) the Company shall furnish to such Purchasers a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Financial Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company (excluding any interested directors), it would be materially detrimental to the Company for such registration statement to be filed in the near future and that it is, therefore, in the best interests of the Company to defer the filing of such registration statement, then (in addition to the limitations set forth in Section 2(b)(ii) above) the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of the request of the Purchasers, and, provided further, that the Company shall not defer its obligation in this manner more than twice in any twelve (12) month period.

(iv) Underwriting.

(A) If the Purchasers intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their Demand Request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 2(b). In such event, the right of the Purchasers to include all or any portion of their Registrable Securities in such registration pursuant to this Section 2(b) shall be conditioned upon the Purchasers’ participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of the Purchasers’ Registrable Securities to the extent provided herein. If the Company shall request inclusion in any registration pursuant to this Section 2(b) of securities being sold for its own account, or if Other Holders shall request inclusion in any registration pursuant to this Section 2(b), the Purchasers shall offer to include such securities in the underwriting and such offer shall be conditioned upon the participation of the Company or such Other Holders in such underwriting and the inclusion of the Company’s and such Other Holders’ other securities of the Company and their acceptance of the further applicable provisions of this Section 2. The Company shall (together with the Purchasers and Other Holders 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 Company.

(B) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2(b), if the underwriters advise the Purchasers in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the number of Registrable Securities and the securities held by Other Holders that may be so included shall be allocated as follows: (I) first, to the Purchasers; (II) second, to Other Holders electing to register shares in connection with such registration; and (III) third, to the Company, which the Company may allocate, at its discretion, for its own account, or for the account of others designated by the Company.

(C) If a person who has requested inclusion in a registration pursuant to this Section 2(b) does not agree to the terms of any underwriting in accordance with this Section 2(b)(iv), such person shall be excluded from the underwriting by written notice from the Company, the underwriters or the Purchasers. The securities so excluded shall also be withdrawn from registration. If shares are so withdrawn from the registration and if the number of shares to be included in such registration was previously reduced as a result of marketing factors pursuant to Section 2(b)(iv)(B) above, then the Company shall then offer to the Purchasers and Other Holders who have elected to include and retained rights to include securities in the registration the right to include additional Registrable Securities or the securities held by Other Holders, as applicable, in the registration in an aggregate amount equal to the number of shares so withdrawn, with such shares to be allocated among such Investors and Other Holders requesting additional inclusion, in order of priority as set forth in Section 2(b)(iv)(B) above.

(i) Generally. If, at any time after the Filing Deadline and prior to the expiration of the Effectiveness Period, (A) the Company proposes to register shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such shares for cash other than a registration statement on Form S-8 or Form S-4 or any successor or other forms promulgated for similar purposes (a “Proposed Registration”) and (B) a Registration Statement covering the sale of all of the Registrable Securities is not then effective and available for sales thereof by the Purchasers, the Company shall, at such time, promptly give the Purchasers a written notice of such Proposed Registration. The Purchasers shall have ten (10) Business Days from their receipt of such notice to deliver to the Company a written request specifying the amount of Registrable Securities that the Purchasers intend to sell and the Purchasers’ intended method of distribution. Upon receipt of such request, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Securities which the Company has been requested to register to be registered under the Securities Act to the extent necessary to permit their sale or other disposition in accordance with the intended methods of distribution specified in the request of the Purchasers; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to postpone or withdraw any registration effected pursuant to this Section 2(c) without obligation to the Purchasers.

(ii) Underwriting.

(A) If the Registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Purchasers as part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 2(c)(i). In such event, the right of the Purchasers to include all or any portion of their Registrable Securities in such registration pursuant to this Section 2(c) shall be conditioned upon the Purchasers’ participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of the Purchasers’ Registrable Securities to the extent provided herein. If the Purchasers shall request inclusion in any registration pursuant to this Section 2(c) of their Registrable Securities, the Company shall offer to include such securities in the underwriting and such offer shall be conditioned upon the participation of the Purchasers and the inclusion of the Purchasers’ Registrable Securities and their acceptance of the further applicable provisions of this Section 2(c). The Purchasers whose shares are to be included in such Registration shall (together with Other Holders 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 Company.

(B) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2(c), if the underwriters advise the Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the Company shall be obligated to include in the registration statement only such limited portion of the Registrable Securities with respect to which the Purchasers have requested inclusion hereunder as such underwriters shall permit. The Company shall not exclude any Registrable Securities unless the Company has first excluded all outstanding securities, the holders of which are not entitled to inclusion of such securities in the registration statement or are not entitled to pro rata inclusion with the Registrable Securities; and any exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata with holders of other securities that are entitled to pro rata inclusion with the Registrable Securities, who have elected to include such securities in the registration statement.

(C) If a person who has requested inclusion in a registration pursuant to this Section 2(c) does not agree to the terms of any underwriting in accordance with this Section 2(c)(ii), such person shall be excluded from the underwriting by written notice from the Company or the underwriter. The securities so excluded shall also be withdrawn from registration. If shares are so withdrawn from the registration and if the number of shares to be included in such registration was previously reduced as a result of marketing factors pursuant to Section 2(c)(ii)(B) above, then the Company shall then offer to the Purchasers and Other Holders who have elected to include and retained rights to include securities in the registration the right to include additional Registrable Securities or the securities held by Other Holders, as applicable, in the registration in an aggregate amount equal to the number of shares so withdrawn, with such shares to be allocated among the Purchasers and Other Holders requesting additional inclusion, in order of priority as set forth in Section 2(c)(ii)(B) above.

(d) Expenses.

The Company will pay all expenses associated with each registration, including filing and printing fees, the Company’s counsel and accounting fees and expenses, costs associated with clearing the Registrable Securities for sale under applicable state securities laws and listing fees, but excluding fees and expenses of counsel to the Purchasers, discounts, commissions, fees of underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers or similar securities industry professionals with respect to the Registrable Securities being sold, provided that the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel for the Purchasers not to exceed U.S.$5,000.

3. Suspension.

(a) Subject to Section 3(b) below, in the event: (i) of any request by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or related prospectus or for additional information so that the Registration Statement will not 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 not misleading or otherwise fail to comply with the applicable rules and regulations of the federal securities laws; (ii) of the issuance by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) 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 resale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose, provided that, considering the advice of counsel, the Company reasonably believes that it must qualify in such jurisdiction; (iv) of any event or circumstance that, considering the advice of counsel, the Company reasonably believes necessitates the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or related prospectus, or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of a related prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or (v) that the Company reasonably believes, considering the advice of counsel, that the Company may, in the absence of a suspension described hereunder, be required under state or federal securities laws to disclose any corporate development, the disclosure of which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect upon the Company, its shareholders, a potentially material transaction or event involving the Company, or any negotiations, discussions or proposals directly relating thereto; then the Company shall deliver a certificate in writing (the “Suspension Notice”) to each holder of Registrable Securities (the “Holder”) to the effect of the foregoing (but in no event, without the prior written consent of the Purchasers, shall the Company disclose to the Purchasers any of the facts or circumstances regarding any material nonpublic information) and, upon receipt of such Suspension Notice, the Holder will refrain from selling any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement (a “Suspension”) until the Holder’s receipt of copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus prepared and filed by the Company or until the Holder is advised in writing by the Company that the current prospectus may be used and the Holder has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in any such prospectus.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not suspend any Registration Statement or related prospectus for more than sixty (60) consecutive days or for a total of more than one hundred twenty (120) days in any twelve (12) month period.

(b) Each Purchaser, by its acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of a Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Purchaser has notified the Company in writing of its election to exclude all of its Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.

The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Purchasers and their respective directors, managers, officers, employees, stockholders, members, and each Person who controls any Purchaser (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, judgments, amounts paid in settlement, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from or which arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in any Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are offered (“Blue Sky Filing”) or the omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus if used prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement or contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading (any of the foregoing, a “Violation”), and will reimburse each Purchaser and their respective directors, managers, members, officers, employees, stockholders or controlling Persons for any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred as such expenses are reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such Violation; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished in writing by a Purchaser specifically for use in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any other offering document.

(b) Indemnification by the Purchasers.

Each Purchaser agrees, severally and jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors, officers, employees, shareholders and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, judgments, amounts paid in settlement, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from or which arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or preliminary prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission or alleged statement or omission is contained in any information furnished in writing by such Purchaser to the Company specifically for inclusion in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, and (ii) any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement, and will reimburse the Company, and its directors, officers, employees, shareholders or controlling Persons for any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred as such expenses are reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action. In no event shall the liability of a Purchaser be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of all expenses paid by such Purchaser in connection with any claim relating to this Section 6 and the amount of any damages such Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission) received by such Purchaser upon the sale of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Person unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses, or (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim within five (5) Business Days after written notice thereof and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Person or (c) a conflict of interest exists between such Person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the Person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such Person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such Person); 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 hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially adversely affect the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or litigation. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one additional firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties. No indemnifying party will, except with the consent of the indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that 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 of such claim or litigation.

(d) Contribution.

If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding paragraphs (a) and (b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient to hold it harmless, other than as expressly specified therein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act shall be entitled to contribution from any Person not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the contribution obligation of a Purchaser be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of all expense paid by such Purchaser in connection with any claim relating to this Section 6 and the amount of any damages such Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission) received by such Purchaser upon the sale of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement giving rise to such contribution obligation.

(g) Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.

(h) Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof but shall be interpreted as if it were written so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Parties hereby waive any provision of law which renders any provisions hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.

(i) Further Assurances. The Parties shall execute and deliver all such further instruments and documents and take all such other actions as may reasonably be required to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and to evidence the fulfillment of the agreements herein contained.

(k) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Subscription Agreement, is intended by the Parties as a final expression of their agreement and intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of the Parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein. This Agreement, together with the Subscription Agreement, supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties with respect to such subject matter.

(l) Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. Each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each Party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
