REGISTRATION RIGHTS
2.1 Securities Subject to this Agreement.
(a) The Securities entitled to the benefits of this Agreement are the Registrable Securities to be issued pursuant to the conversion of the Preferred Stock purchased by the Purchasers pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, but only for so long as they remain Registrable Securities.
(b) A Person is deemed to be a holder of such Registrable Securities (each, a “Holder”) whenever such Person is the registered holder of such Registrable Securities on the Company’s books and records.
2.2 Demand Registration. At any time after 180 days following the Qualified IPO, the Holders of at least 66-2/3% of the then outstanding Registrable Securities that have an aggregate market price of at least $12.5 million at the time of the request may make a written request to the Company to register their Registrable Securities (each of such Holders making such request being referred to hereinafter as the “Initiating Holder”), under the Securities Act and under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction reasonably designated by such Initiating Holder (“Demand Registration”), which may include all or any portion of the Registrable Securities held by any Initiating Holder unless such underwriters advise that those additional shares should be excluded. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to cause such Demand Registration to become effective not later than three (3) months after it receives a request for a Demand Registration and to remain continuously effective for a period of at least three (3) months from the effective date of such Demand Registration Statement or such shorter period which will terminate when all of the Registrable Securities covered by the Demand Registration Statement have been sold pursuant thereto. The Company shall not be required to effect more than one Demand Registration at the request of the Purchasers. If at the time of any request to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2.2, the Company is engaged in, or has fixed plans to engage in within three months of the time of such request, a registered public offering or is engaged in any other activity which, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Company, would be adversely affected by the requested registration to the material detriment of the Company, then the Company may at its option direct that such request be delayed for a reasonable period not in excess of 180 days from the effective date of
3
such offering or the date of completion of such other material activity, as the case may be, such right to delay a request to be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve-month or 365-day period. Notwithstanding the above, the Company shall not be required to effect any Demand Registration within three (3) months after the effective date of any other Registration Statement of the Company.
Each request for a Demand Registration by the Initiating Holders shall state the amount of the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and the intended method of disposition thereof. Upon a request for a Demand Registration, the Company shall promptly take such steps as are necessary or appropriate to prepare for the registration of the Registrable Securities to be registered.
(a) At any time that the Company proposes to file a Company Registration Statement, including one under Sections 2.2 or 2.4 hereunder, either for its own account or for the account of a stockholder or stockholders, covering the disposition of securities having an aggregate disposition price of at least $1.0 million, the Company shall give the Holders written notice of its intention to do so and of the intended method of sale (the “Registration Notice”) within a reasonable time prior to the anticipated filing date of the Company Registration Statement effecting such Company Registration. Each Holder may request inclusion of all of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Company Registration by delivering to the Company, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Registration Notice, a written notice (the “Piggyback Notice”) stating the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be included and that such shares are to be included in any underwriting only on the same terms and conditions as the shares of Common Stock otherwise being sold through underwriters under such Company Registration Statement. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities specified in the Piggyback Notice to be included in the Company Registration Statement and any related offering, all to the extent requisite to permit the sale by the Holders of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the method of sale applicable to the other shares of Common Stock included in such Company Registration Statement; provided, however, that if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the Company Registration Statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay registration of such securities, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to each Holder of Registrable Securities and, thereupon:
(i) in the case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses in connection therewith), and
(ii) in the case of a delay in registering, shall be permitted to delay registering any Registrable Securities for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities.
4
(b) The Company’s obligation to include Registrable Securities in a Company Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.3(a) shall be subject to the following limitations:
(i) the Company shall not be required to include any Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement filed to register its Qualified IPO.
(ii) The Company shall not be obligated to include any Registrable Securities in a registration statement filed on Form X-0, Xxxx X-0 or such other similar successor forms then in effect under the Securities Act.
(iii) If a Company Registration Statement involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such Company Registration Statement exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the offering, the Company will include in such Company Registration Statement the number of such securities which the Company is so advised can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the offering, determined as follows:
(A) first, the securities proposed by the Company to be sold for it own account, and
(B) second, any Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration and any other securities of the Company in accordance with the priorities, if any, then existing among the holders of such securities and pro rata among the holders thereof requesting such registration on the basis of the number of shares of such securities requested to be included by such holders.
2.4 Form S-3. The Company shall use its best efforts to qualify for registration on Form S-3 or its successor form. After the Company has qualified for the use of Form S-3, Holders of 25% of the then outstanding Registrable Securities shall have the right at any time to request 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:
(a) The Company shall not be required to file an S-3 Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 2.4 within ninety (90) days of the effective date of any registration referred to in Sections 2.2 or 2.3 above.
(b) The Company shall not be required to file a registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.4 unless the Holder or Holders requesting registration propose to dispose of shares of Registrable Securities having an aggregate disposition price (before deduction of underwriting discounts and expenses of sale) of at least $3,000,000.
(c) If at the time of any request to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2.4, the Company is engaged in, or has fixed plans to engage in within three months of the time of such request, a registered public offering or is engaged in any other activity which, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Company, would be adversely
5
affected by the requested registration to the material detriment of the Company, then the Company may at its option direct that such request be delayed for a reasonable period not in excess of 180 days from the effective date of such offering or the date of completion of such other material activity, as the case may be, such right to delay a request to be exercised by the Company not more than once in any one-year period.
(d) Only one registration pursuant to such S-3 Registration Statement may be required hereunder during any twelve-month period.
The Company shall give written notice to all Holders of Registrable Securities of the receipt of a request for registration pursuant to this Section 2.4 and shall provide a reasonable opportunity for other Holders to participate in the registration. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.5, 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 pursuant to this Section 2.4 by the Holder or Holders of such Registrable Securities for purposes of disposition.
2.5 Registration Procedures. If any registration pursuant to Sections 2.3 or 2.4 is for an underwritten offering, the following terms shall apply to all participants in such offering: the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to Section 2.3 or 2.4 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company and the other Holders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company. If the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the managing underwriter may limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the registration and underwriting. The Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities which would otherwise be registered and underwritten pursuant to Sections 2.3 or 2.4, and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated among the Holders in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of securities requested by such Holders to be included in such registration. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, he may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter. If, by the withdrawal of such Registrable Securities, a greater number of Registrable Securities held by other Holders may be included in such registration (up to the limit imposed by the underwriters), the Company shall offer to all Holders who have included Registrable Securities in the registration the right to include additional Registrable Securities in the same proportion used in determining the limitation as set forth above. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration.
In connection with any Registration Statement and any Prospectus required by any section of this Agreement to permit the sale or resale of Registrable Securities, the Company shall:
6
(a) use its commercially reasonable best efforts to prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and post-effective amendments to such Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective (i) if such Registration Statement is a Company Registration Statement, until the earlier of such time as all of such securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such Company Registration Statement or (ii) if such Registration Statement is a Demand Registration Statement, for the applicable period set forth in Section 2.2 herein; cause the Prospectus to be supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act, and to comply fully with the applicable provisions of Rules 424 and 430A, as applicable, under the Securities Act in a timely manner; and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution by the sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement or the Prospectus;
(b) promptly (and in respect of events covered by clause (i) hereof, on the same day as the Company shall receive notice of effectiveness) advise the Holders covered by such Registration Statement and, if requested by such Persons, to confirm such advice in writing, (i) when the Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when the same has become effective, (ii) of any request by the Commission for post-effective amendments to such Registration Statement or post-effective amendments to such Registration Statement or post-effective amendments or supplements to the Prospectus or for additional information relating thereto, (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any such Registration Statement under the Securities Act or of the suspension by any state securities commission of the qualification of the Registrable Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation of any proceeding for any of the preceding purposes, and (iv) of the existence of any fact or the happening of any event that makes any statement of a material fact made in any such Registration Statement, the related Prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein untrue, or that requires the making of any additions to or changes in any such Registration Statement or the related Prospectus in order to make the statements therein not misleading. If at any time the Commission shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement, or any state securities commission or other regulatory authority shall issue an order suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of the Registrable Securities under state securities or Blue Sky laws, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal or lifting of such order at the earliest possible time;
(c) promptly furnish to each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement, and each underwriter, if any, without charge, at least one conformed copy of any Registration Statement, as first filed with the Commission, and of each amendment thereto, including all documents incorporated by reference therein and all exhibits (including exhibits incorporated therein by reference) and such other documents as such Holder may reasonably request;

(ii) obtain opinions of counsel to the Company (which counsel and opinions, in form and substance, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the selling Holders and the underwriter(s), if any, and their respective counsel) addressed to each selling Holder and underwriter, if any, covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested in underwritten offerings (whether or not sales of securities pursuant to such Registration Statement are to be made to an underwriter(s)) and dated the date of effectiveness of any Registration Statement (and, in the case of any underwritten sale of securities pursuant to such Registration Statement, each closing date of sales to the underwriter(s) pursuant thereto);

(iv) provide for the indemnification provisions and procedures of Section 2.6 hereof with respect to selling Holders and the underwriter(s), if any, and;
(v) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the selling Holders or the underwriter(s), if any, and which are customarily delivered in underwritten offerings (whether of not sales of securities pursuant to such Registration Statement are to be made to an underwriter(s), with such documents and certificates to be dated the date of effectiveness of any Registration Statement.
8
The actions required by clauses (i) through (v) above shall be done at each closing under such underwriting or similar agreement, as and to the extent required thereunder, and if at any time the representations and warranties of the Company contemplated in clause (i) above cease to be true and correct, the Company shall so advise the underwriter(s), if any, and each selling Holder promptly, and, if requested by such Person, shall confirm such advice in writing;
(f) prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, cooperate with the selling Holders, the underwriter(s), if any, and their respective counsel in connection with the registration and qualification of the Registrable Securities under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such U.S. jurisdictions as the selling Holders or underwriter(s), if any, may reasonably request in writing by the time any Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission, and do any and all other acts or filings necessary or advisable to enable disposition in such U.S. jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement and to file such consents to service of process or other documents as may be necessary in order to effect such registration or qualification; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to register or qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to register or qualify but for this Section 2.4, or to take any action that would subject it to the service of process in suits or to taxation, in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject;

(h) use its reasonable efforts to cause the disposition of the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other U.S. governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof or the underwriter(s), if any, to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;
(i) if any fact or event contemplated by Section 2.4(b) shall exist or have occurred, use reasonable efforts to prepare a supplement or post-effective amendment to any Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of Registrable Securities, the Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statement therein not misleading;
(j) cooperate and assist in the performance of any due diligence investigation by any underwriter (including any “qualified independent underwriter”) that is required to be retained in accordance with the rules and regulations of the NASD, and use its reasonable efforts to cause any Registration Statement to become effective and approved by such U.S.
9
governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the Holders selling Registrable Securities to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;
(k) otherwise use its reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make generally available to its security holders with regard to such Registration Statement, as soon as practicable, a consolidated earnings statement meeting the requirements of Rule 158 (which need not be audited) for the twelve-month period (i) commencing at the end of any fiscal quarter in which Registrable Securities are sold to the underwriter in a firm or best efforts underwritten offering or (ii) if not sold to an underwriter in such an offering, beginning with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of any Registration Statement;

Each Holder as to which such Registration Statement is being effected agrees to furnish promptly to the Company all information required to be disclosed in order to make all information previously furnished to the Company by such Holder not materially misleading.
(b) Failure of a Holder to furnish the information and agreements described in this Agreement shall not affect the obligations of the Company under this Agreement to remaining Holders who do furnish such information and agreements unless, in the reasonable
10
opinion of counsel to the Company, such failure impairs or may impair the viability of the offering or the legality of the registration or the underlying offering.
(c) The Holders holding shares included in the registration will not (until further notice by the Company) effect sales thereof (or deliver a prospectus to any purchaser) after receipt of telegraphic or written notice from the Company to suspend sales to permit the Company to correct or update a registration statement or prospectus.

Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Holder.

In case any action shall be brought or asserted against any of the indemnified Persons with respect to which indemnity may be sought against the Company, such indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Company and the Company shall assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified Persons, it being understood and agreed that the Company’s regular outside counsel is acceptable for such purpose. Such indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnified Person unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been specifically authorized in writing by the Company, (ii) the Company shall have failed to assume the defense and employ counsel or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any implied parties) include both the indemnified Person and the Company and the indemnified Person shall have been advised in writing by its counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are materially different from or additional to those available to the Company, it being understood, however, that the Company shall not, in connection with such action or similar or related actions or proceedings arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any time for all the indemnified Persons, which firm shall be (x) designated by such indemnified Persons and (y) reasonably satisfactory to the Company. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action or proceeding effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably, and the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified Person from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability, judgment or expense by reason of any settlement of any action effected with the written consent of the Company. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of each indemnified Person, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of judgment on or otherwise seek to terminate any pending or threatened action, claim, litigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not any indemnified Person is a party thereto), unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of each indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such action, claim litigation or proceeding.
(b) Each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors, officers and any person controlling (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Company, and the respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and agents of each person, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each of the indemnified Persons, but only (i) (x) with respect to actions based on information relating to such Holder furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use in any Registration Statement or Prospectus, (y) with respect to the preliminary Prospectus, any matters which result from the fact that such Holder sold Securities to a person to whom there was not sent or given, at or prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a copy of the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, if the Company shall have previously furnished copies thereof to such Holder in accordance with this Agreement and said Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, would have corrected such untrue statement or omission; or (z) such matters which result from the use by an indemnified Person of any Prospectus when, upon receipt of a Black-Out Notice or a notice from the Company of the
13
existence of any fact of the kind described in Section 2.5(b)(iv), the indemnified Person or the related Holder was not permitted to do so, and (ii) to the extent of the gross proceeds, if any, received by such Purchaser from the sale or other disposition of his or its Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement. In case any action or proceeding shall be brought against the Company or its directors or officers or any such controlling person in respect of which indemnity may be sought against a Holder of Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement, such Holder shall have the rights and duties given the Company in Section 2.8(a) (except that the Holder may but shall not be required to assume the defense thereof), and the Company or its directors or officers or such controlling person shall have the rights and duties given to each Holder by Section 2.9(a). Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any the Company or any other indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of securities by any applicable Holder.
(c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.9 is unavailable to an indemnified party under Section 2.9(a) or (b) (other than by reason of exceptions provided in those Sections) in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments or expenses referred to therein, then each applicable indemnifying party (in the case of the Holders severally and not jointly), in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims damages, liabilities, judgments or expenses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Holder on the other hand from sale of Registrable Securities or (ii) if such allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and such Holder in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of such Holder on the other 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 Company or by such Holder and the parties relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid to a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities judgments and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in the second paragraph of Section 2.9(a) and Section 2.9(b), any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim.
The Company and each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.9(c) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.9(c) no Holder (and none of its related indemnified Persons) shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the dollar amount of proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities exceeds the amount of any damages which such Holder has otherwise
14
been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentations (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
The indemnity, and contribution provisions contained in this Section 2.9 are in addition to any liability which the indemnifying person may otherwise have to the indemnified persons referred to above.
2.10 Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Holder may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such Holder (a) agrees to sell such Holder’s Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all reasonable questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, lock-up letters and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.
2.11 Selection of Underwriters. The Holders of Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement who desire to do so may sell such Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering. In any such underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in such offering if such registration is pursuant to the Demand Registration Statement, and by the Company if such registration is pursuant to a Company Registration Statement or S-3 Registration Statement; provided, however, that in the case of a registration pursuant to a Demand Registration Statement, such investment bankers and managers must be reasonably satisfactory to the Company. Such investment bankers and managers are referred to herein as the “underwriters.”
2.12 Market Stand-Off. In consideration for the Company agreeing to its obligations under this Agreement, each Holder agrees in connection with any registration of the Company’s securities (whether or not such Holder is participating in such registration) upon the request of the Company and the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of, any Registrable Securities in a market transaction (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company, or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 180 days from the effective date of such registration) as the Company and the underwriters may specify.
2.13 Transfer of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities of a Holder and keep information available granted to a Holder by the Company under Sections 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4, may be assigned by a Holder to any partner, member or shareholder of such Holder, to any other Holder, or to a transferee or assignee who (i) receives at least 1,000,000 shares of Registrable Securities (as adjusted for stock splits and the like); provided, that the Company is given written notice by the Holder at the time of or within a reasonable time after said transfer, stating the name and address of said transferee or assignee and identifying the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned or
15
(ii) receives less than 1,000,000 shares of Registrable Securities if the Company provides such Holder with prior written approval of such transfer.
2.14 Rule 144. Following the Company’s initial public offering, the Company shall:
(a) file the reports required to be filed by the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so as to enable the Holders to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act;
(b) cooperate with any Holder in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition by such Holder of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act;
(c) take such action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell its Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, including providing any legal opinions; and
(d) upon the request of any Holder, deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer of the Company as to whether the Company has complied with the foregoing requirements.
MISCELLANEOUS
3.1 Termination. This agreement and the obligations of the Company hereunder shall terminate on the earliest of (i) the first date on which no Registrable Securities remain outstanding and (ii) the close of business on the third anniversary of the Company’s Qualified IPO.
3.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Subscription Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreement and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.
3.3 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of (subject to Section 2.13) and be binding upon the successors and assigns of each of the parties, including without limitation and without the need for an express assignment, subsequent Holders of Registrable Securities; provided, however, that this Agreement shall not inure to the benefit of or be binding upon a successor or assign of a Holder unless and to the extent such successor or assign acquired Registrable Securities from such Holder at a time when such Holder could not transfer such Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act as contemplated by clause (ii) of the definition of Registrable Securities.
16
3.4 Notices. All notices and other communications given or made pursuant hereto or pursuant to any other agreement among the parties, unless otherwise specified, shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made if sent by telecopy (with confirmation in writing), delivered personally or by overnight courier or sent by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested) to the parties at the telecopy number, if any, or address set forth below or at such other addresses as shall be furnished by the parties by like notice.

3.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument.
3.7 Choice of Law; Jurisdiction; Venue. This Agreement has been negotiated and shall be consummated in the State of New York and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its principles of conflicts of law. The parties hereto irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located within the County of New York and of any federal court located in the Southern District of the State of New York in connection with any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any document or instrument delivered pursuant to, in connection with or simultaneously with this Agreement, or a breach of this Agreement or any such document or instrument; provided, however if the federal courts have subject matter jurisdiction, any action shall be commenced and maintained there.

3.8 Specific Enforcement. Each party hereto acknowledges that the remedies at law of the other parties for a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement would be inadequate, and, in recognition of this fact, any party to this Agreement, without posting any bond, and in addition to all other remedies which may be available, shall be entitled to obtain equitable relief in the form of specific performance, a temporary restraining order, a temporary to permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available.
3.9 Amendment and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to or departures from the provisions hereof may not be given unless the Company has obtained the written consent of Holders of a majority of the then outstanding Registrable Securities.

The Registration Agreement is hereby amended, effective as of the effective time of the Merger, to substitute Group for Net as the “Company” party to the Registration Agreement and to acknowledge that the Group Class B Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Group Series A Preferred Stock received in the Merger by the Stockholders will be the “Subject Shares” subject to the Registration Agreement.

3. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO THE REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
This AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO THE REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”), is made and entered into this 3rd day of June, 2002, by and among GFI Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the parties listed on the signature pages hereto (collectively, the “Holders”).
BACKGROUND:
The Company and each of the Holders are parties to a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of March 10, 2000, as amended by the Amendment Agreement dated as of November 30, 2001, by and among the Company, GFInet inc. and the stockholders listed on the signature pages thereto (collectively, the “Original Agreement”). Capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Original Agreement.
The Original Agreement, inter alia, granted to the Holders certain rights relating to the registration of Registrable Securities. Pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Original Agreement, the Company granted each of the Holders and each of the other signatories to the Original Agreement (each a “Purchaser” and collectively, the “Purchasers”) the right to require the Company to include all of such Purchaser’s Registrable Securities at any time that the Company proposes to file a Company Registration Statement or upon a Demand Registration pursuant to the terms and conditions stated therein. The Holders and the Company further agreed that the ability to participate in any such registration would be limited in accordance with the terms of the Original Agreement. In order to clarify those terms which limit such participation, the Holders and the Company are entering into this Amendment.
Pursuant to Section 3.9 of the Original Agreement, the provisions of the Original Agreement may be amended if the Company obtains the written consent of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding. The Holders hold a majority of the Registrable Securities outstanding as of the date of this Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and obligations contained herein, and intending to be legally bound, the parties, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, agree as follows:
ARTICLE
1
AMENDMENT TO ORIGINAL AGREEMENT
1.1. Amendment and Restatement of the Qualified IPO definition. The definition of “Qualified IPO” in Section 1.1 of the Original Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:
“ ‘Qualified IPO’ means a firm commitment underwritten initial public offering of the Corporation with a nationally recognized underwriter that is pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering the offer and sale of Class B Common Stock for the account of the Corporation (other
than pursuant to a registration on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any similar or successor form) on either the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq National Market in which (x) the public offering price per share is no less than $0. 961166 (as adjusted for stock splits, stock combinations and recapitalizations) multiplied by one and one-half (1.5) and (y) the gross cash proceeds to the Company (before underwriting discounts, commissions and fees) are at least $50 million.”
1.2. Addition to Section 2.2 of the Original Agreement. A new paragraph shall be added to Section 2.2 of the Original Agreement at the end of such section and shall read, in its entirety:
“If a Demand Registration Statement involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration Statement exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the offering, the Company will include in such Demand Registration Statement the number of such securities which the Company is so advised can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the offering, determined as follows:
(a) first,
(1) in the event there are no holders of the Company’s Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (each a “Series C Holder”) electing to participate in the Demand Registration, then for each holder initiating the Demand Registration and each holder electing to participate in such Demand Registration who was otherwise permitted to initiate (alone or together with other shareholders) such Demand Registration under this Agreement, such number of securities as is determined by multiplying (a) the securities able to be registered as determined by the managing underwriter, by (b) the fraction of (i) the aggregate number of securities of the Company that such party proposes to include in such registration divided by (ii) the total number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by all holders initiating the Demand Registration and all holders electing to participate in such Demand Registration who were otherwise permitted to initiate (alone or together with other shareholders) such Demand Registration under this Agreement;
(2) in the event there are Series C Holders electing to participate in the Demand Registration and the holders initiating the Demand Registration initiated such registration pursuant to their only contractual demand registration right (and such shareholder was not permitted (alone or together with other shareholders) to exercise a previously exercised contractual demand registration right), then
(i) for each holder initiating the Demand Registration and each holder electing to participate in such Demand Registration who was otherwise permitted to initiate (alone or together with other shareholders) such Demand Registration under this Agreement, such number of securities as is determined by multiplying (i) seventy-five percent (75%) of the number of
2
securities able to be registered as determined by the managing underwriter, by (ii) the fraction of (A) the aggregate number of securities of the Company that such party proposes to include in such registration divided by (B) the total number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by all holders initiating the Demand Registration and all holders electing to participate in such Demand Registration who were otherwise permitted to initiate (alone or together with other shareholders) such Demand Registration under this Agreement; and
(ii) for each Series C Holder, such number of securities as is determined by multiplying (i) twenty-five percent (25%) of the number of securities able to be registered as determined by the managing underwriter, by (ii) the fraction of (A) the aggregate number of securities of the Company that such party proposes to include in such registration divided by (B) the total number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by all Series C Holders; provided, that in the event that the allocation of seventy-five percent (75%) of the number of securities able to be registered in subclause (a) or twenty-five percent (25%) of the number of securities able to be registered in subclause (b) exceeds the number of securities requested to be registered by the applicable parties under either such subclause, then such excess securities shall be allocated to the parties of the other subparagraph (allocated on an individual basis pursuant to the same formula described therein) until all of the shares requested to be registered by such parties are so included;
(3) in the event there are Series C Holders electing to participate in the Demand Registration and any of the holders initiating the Demand Registration has (alone or together with other shareholders) additional contractual demand registration rights (or was permitted (alone or together with other shareholders) to exercise a previously exercised contractual demand registration right), then for each holder initiating the Demand Registration, each holder electing to participate in such Demand Registration who was otherwise permitted to initiate (alone or together with other shareholders) such Demand Registration under this Agreement and each of the Series C Holders, such number of securities as is determined by multiplying (a) the securities able to be registered as determined by the managing underwriter, by (b) the fraction of (i) the aggregate number of securities of the Company that such party proposes to include in such registration divided by (ii) the total number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by all holders initiating the Demand Registration, all holders electing to participate in such Demand Registration who were otherwise permitted to initiate (alone or together with other shareholders) such Demand Registration under this Agreement and each of the Series C Holders;
3
(b) second, for each holder of the Company’s securities who holds contractual piggyback registration rights, other than the holders described above in clause (a), if any, the fraction of such holder’s securities proposed to be registered which is obtained by dividing (i) the remaining number of the securities of the Company that such holder proposes to include in such registration by (ii) the total remaining number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by such holders; and
(c) third, for the Company and each remaining holder of the Company’s securities, other than the holders described above in clauses (a) and (b), if any, who are permitted by the Company to so participate, such number of securities as is determined by multiplying (a) the remaining securities able to be registered as determined by the managing underwriter, by (b) the fraction of (i) the number of the securities of the Company that such holder proposes to include in such registration divided by (ii) the total remaining number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by all such remaining holders.”
1.3. Amendment to the first sentence of Section 2.3(a) of the Original Agreement. The first sentence of Section 2.3(a) of the Original Agreement shall be amended and restated as follows:
“At any time that the Company proposes to file a Company Registration Statement, either for its own account or for the account of a stockholder or stockholders, covering the disposition of securities having an aggregate disposition price of at least $1.0 million, the Company shall give the Holders written notice of its intention to do so and of the intended method of sale (the “Registration Notice”) within a reasonable time prior to the anticipated filing date of the Company Registration Statement effecting such Company Registration.”
1.4. Amendment to Section 2.3(b) of the Original Agreement. Section 2.3(b) of the Original Agreement shall be amended and restated as follows:
“(b) The Company’s obligation to include Registrable Securities in a Company Registration Statement shall be subject to the following limitations:
(i) the Company shall not be required to include any Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement filed to register its Qualified IPO;
(ii) The Company shall not be obligated to include any Registrable Securities in a registration statement filed on Form X-0, Xxxx X-0 or such other similar successor forms then in effect under the Securities Act; and
(iii) If a Company Registration Statement involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such Company Registration Statement exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the offering, the Company will include in such Company Registration Statement the number of such securities which the
4
Company is so advised can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the offering, determined as follows:
(A) In the event the Company initiated such registration:
(I) first, the securities proposed by the Company to be sold for it own account,
(II) second, for each Series C Holder, if any, such number of securities as is determined by multiplying (a) the remaining securities able to be registered as determined by the managing underwriter, by (b) the fraction of (i) the number of the securities of the Company that such Series C Holder proposes to include in such registration divided by (ii) the total number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by all Series C Holders;
(III) third, for each remaining holder of the Company’s securities who holds contractual piggyback registration rights, other than the holders described above in clauses (I) and (II) (including the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder), if any, the fraction of such holder’s securities proposed to be registered which is obtained by dividing (i) the number of the securities of the Company that such holder proposes to include in such registration by (ii) the total number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by such holders; and
(IV) fourth, for each remaining holder of the Company’s securities, other than the holders described above in clauses (I), (II) and (III), if any, who are permitted by the Company to so participate, such number of securities as is determined by multiplying (a) the remaining securities able to be registered as determined by the managing underwriter, by (b) the fraction of (i) the number of the securities of the Company that such holder proposes to include in such registration divided by (ii) the total number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by all such remaining holders.
(B) In the event a Series C Holder initiated such registration:
(I) first, for each Series C Holder, such number of securities as is determined by multiplying (a) the securities able to be registered as determined by the managing underwriter, by (b) the fraction of (i) the number of the securities of the Company that such Series C Holder proposes to include in such registration divided by (ii) the total number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by all Series C Holders;
5
(II) second, for each remaining holder of the Company’s securities who holds contractual piggyback registration rights, other than the holders described above in clause (I) (including the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder), if any, the fraction of such holder’s securities proposed to be registered which is obtained by dividing (i) the number of the securities of the Company that such holder proposes to include in such registration by (ii) the total number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by such holders; and
(III) third, for the Company and each remaining holder of the Company’s securities, other than the holders described above in clauses (I) and (II), if any, who are permitted by the Company to so participate, such number of securities as is determined by multiplying (a) the remaining securities able to be registered as determined by the managing underwriter, by (b) the fraction of (i) the number of the securities of the Company that such holder proposes to include in such registration divided by (ii) the total number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by all such remaining holders.
(C) In the event that a shareholder other than a Series C Holder initiated such registration pursuant to demand registration rights granted under another agreement;
(I) first,
(i) in the event there are no holders of the Company’s Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, $0,01 par value per share (each a “Series C Holder”) electing to participate in the demand registration, then for each holder initiating the demand registration and each holder electing to participate in such demand registration who was otherwise permitted to initiate (alone or together with other shareholders) such demand registration, such number of securities as is determined by multiplying (a) the securities able to be registered as determined by the managing underwriter, by (b) the fraction of (i) the aggregate number of securities of the Company that such party proposes to include in such registration divided by (ii) the total number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by all holders initiating the demand registration and all holders electing to participate in such demand registration who were otherwise permitted to initiate (alone or together with other shareholders) such demand registration;

(1) for each holder initiating the demand registration and each holder permitted to participate in such demand registration who was otherwise permitted to initiate (alone or together with other shareholders) such demand registration, such number of securities as is determined by multiplying (i) seventy-five percent (75%) of the number of securities able to be registered as determined by the managing underwriter, by (ii) the fraction of (A) the aggregate number of securities of the Company that such party proposes to include in such registration divided by (B) the total number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by all holders initiating the demand registration and all holders electing to participate in such demand registration who were otherwise permitted to initiate (alone or together with other shareholders) such demand registration; and
(2) for each Series C Holder, such number of securities as is determined by multiplying (i) twenty-five percent (25%) of the number of securities able to be registered as determined by the managing underwriter, by (ii) the fraction of (A) the aggregate number of securities of the Company that such party proposes to include in such registration divided by (B) the total number of securities proposed to be sold in such offering by all Series C Holders; provided, that in the event that the allocation of seventy-five percent (75%) of the number of securities able to be registered in subclause (a) or twenty-five percent (25%) of the number of securities able to be registered in subclause (b) exceeds the number of securities requested to be registered by the applicable parties under either such subclause, then such excess securities shall be allocated to the parties of the other subparagraph (allocated on an individual basis pursuant to the same formula described therein) until all of the shares requested to be registered by such parties are so included;
