2. Demand Filings.
--------------
(a) Notice. In addition to any registration rights they may have as set
forth under the Existing Registration Rights Agreement, the GSC Investors may at
any time after the date hereof, but on not more than one occasion, make a
written request to Xxxxx that Xxxxx at the GSC Investors' option (i) file a
registration statement in the United States registering for offer and sale all
or a part of its Subject Securities in the United States of America, including a
shelf registration pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (a "Shelf
Registration") if Xxxxx is eligible to use such a registration or (ii) obtain a
receipt or receipts for a preliminary Canadian Prospectus in Canada from the
applicable Canadian Regulatory Authorities, including a shelf prospectus
pursuant to National Instrument 44-102 (a "Canadian Shelf") if Xxxxx is eligible
to use a Canadian Shelf qualifying the offer and sale of all or part of its
Subject Securities in Canada, (in either case, a "Demand Filing Statement"), or,
if requested in good faith by the GSC Investors, in both jurisdictions, having
an aggregate public market offering price of not less than U.S.$20 million (or
the Canadian dollar equivalent thereof at such time based on the average of the
closing market prices for the ten-day trading period prior to the date of the
request) in each case. By way of clarification; the parties hereto intend that
if a Shelf Registration and/or a
-5-
Canadian Shelf is requested under this Section 2(a) or under Section 2(a) of the
Existing Registration Rights Agreement, so long as such Shelf Registration or
Canadian Shelf shall remain effective in accordance with this Agreement or the
Existing Registration Rights Agreement, as the case may be, then the right to
request one registration under this Section 2(a) and the right to request any
registration under Section 2(a) of the Existing Registration Rights Agreement
shall be deemed to entitle the parties requesting such registration to request
Xxxxx to effect an underwritten, widely-distributed "takedown" of such Shelf
Registration or Canadian Shelf once pursuant to this Section 2(a) and twice
pursuant to Section 2(a) of the Existing Registration Rights Agreement (an
"Underwritten Takedown Request"). In addition, the parties requesting such
registration also shall be entitled to request Xxxxx to effect an unlimited
number of block trades (whether or not underwritten) and an unlimited number of
non-underwritten takedowns of such Shelf Registration. In any such case, (i)
such registration must be made with the SEC under and in accordance with
provisions of the Securities Act, and (ii) such receipt or receipts must be
obtained from all of the applicable Canadian Regulatory Authorities in
accordance with Canadian Securities Laws (in either case, a "Demand Filing").
All requests made pursuant to this paragraph will specify the proposed aggregate
number of the Subject Securities to be registered or qualified and will also
specify the intended methods of disposition thereof.
(b) Restrictions. Each Demand Filing Statement shall be filed as soon
as possible but in no event later than 60 days (subject to the last sentence of
this Section 2(b)) after the date the GSC Investors make the written request for
registration and/or qualification under the preceding paragraph. The GSC
Investors shall not be permitted to make the written request for registration
and/or qualification under the preceding paragraph, or an Underwritten Takedown
Request, more than once in any six-month period and no sooner than six months
after the completion of any prior demand offering. Without limiting Xxxxx'x
obligation to effect any Demand Filing or Underwritten Takedown Request pursuant
to this Section 2 and to pay for any and all Registration Expenses associated
therewith (as provided in Section 5 hereof), a registration and/or qualification
or Underwritten Takedown Request requested pursuant to this Section 2 shall not
be counted as a Demand Filing Statement for purposes of the first sentence of
Section 2(a) if the GSC Investors have not been able to sell at least 50% of the
Subject Securities requested to be included in such registration and/or
qualification or Underwritten Takedown Request. In addition, a Demand Filing
Statement shall not be deemed to have been effected (i) unless a registration
statement with respect thereto has been declared effective by the SEC and
remains effective in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act or
unless a receipt or receipts for a final Canadian Prospectus with respect
thereto has been issued by all applicable Canadian Regulatory Authorities and
such prospectus remains in compliance with Canadian Securities Laws until the
earlier of (x) such time as all of the Subject Securities covered thereby have
been disposed of in accordance with such registration statement and/or
prospectus and (y) in the case of any Shelf Registration, 2 years (subject to
extension at the request of the GSC Investors if all of the Subject Securities
covered thereby have not been disposed of in accordance with such Shelf
Registration) after the date on which the staff of the SEC has indicated that it
is satisfied with the registration statement and all responses to its comments
and that it is prepared upon the proper filing of a pricing amendment to declare
the registration statement effective, or
-6-
in the case of a Canadian Shelf, 2 years after the date on which a receipt or
receipts for a final Canadian Shelf have been issued by the applicable Canadian
Regulatory Authorities, (ii) if, after the registration statement with respect
thereto has become effective, or a receipt or receipts for such prospectus have
been issued, such registration or prospectus is interfered with by any stop
order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other governmental
or regulatory agency including a Canadian regulatory authority or court for any
reason other than a violation of applicable law by the GSC Investors and has not
thereafter become effective or (iii) if, in the case of an underwritten
offering, the conditions to closing specified in the underwriting agreement to
which Xxxxx is a party are not satisfied, other than by reason of any breach or
failure by the GSC Investors or any other holder; provided, that if such demand
occurs during a Black Out Period (as defined below) or other period (not to
exceed 90 days) during which Xxxxx is prohibited or restricted from filing a
registration statement or a Canadian Prospectus pursuant to any underwriting or
purchase agreement relating to an underwritten Rule 144A offering or registered
or qualified public offering of securities in which the GSC Investors were
offered piggy-back rights pursuant to Section 3 (a "Lock Up Period"), Xxxxx
shall notify the GSC Investors of the basis therefore and shall not be required
to notify the holders of any Subject Securities of such demand or file such
Registration Statement or Canadian Prospectus prior to the end of the Black Out
Period or Lock Up Period, as the case may be, in which event, Xxxxx will file
such Registration Statement or Canadian Prospectus no later than the later of
(a) 120 days after the original demand and (B) 60 days after the end of the
Black Out Period or Lock Up Period, as the case may be; and provided, further,
that Xxxxx may postpone the filing of any Registration Statement and/or Canadian
Prospectus (and, in the case of a Pending Event Suspension Period only, suspend
the effectiveness of any registration or qualification, suspend the use of any
Prospectus and shall not be required to amend or supplement the Registration
Statement, any related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by
reference (other than an effective Registration Statement or Canadian Prospectus
being used in an underwritten offering)) (I) for a period not to exceed an
aggregate of 75 days hereunder (a "Pending Event Suspension Period") in the
event that (1) an event or circumstance occurs and is continuing that has not
been publicly disclosed and, if not disclosed in the Registration Statement, any
related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference as then
amended or supplemented would, in the good faith reasonable judgment of the
Board of Directors of Xxxxx (the "Board"), result in the Registration Statement,
and any related Prospectus, or Canadian Prospectus or any such document
containing an untrue statement of a material fact or omitting to state a
material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading, and (2) in the good faith judgment of the Board, after
consultation with its outside securities counsel, Xxxxx has a bona fide business
purpose for not then disclosing the existence of such event or circumstance or
(II) for a period not to exceed an aggregate of 120 days hereunder, in the event
that Xxxxx, for its own account or the account of others, has pending or is
currently engaged in the process of and proposes to register Common Shares for
sale in an underwritten public offering on Form X-0, X-0 or S-3, their successor
forms or any other form under the Securities Act appropriate for a public
offering of such securities of Xxxxx (other than a registration on Form S-8), or
in an underwritten public offering pursuant to a Canadian Prospectus, in each
case in an offering in which the GSC Investors have been or will be offered
piggy-back rights pursuant to Section 3 (a
-7-
"Pending Registration Suspension Period") and, together with a Pending Event
Suspension Period, a "Black Out Period"); provided, further, that any period
suspended, including the Effectiveness Period, shall be extended by the number
of days in any Black Out Period occurring during such Period.
(c) Effectiveness. Xxxxx agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to
cause each such Demand Filing Statement to be declared effective by (i) the SEC
and/or (ii) the applicable Canadian Regulatory Authorities, as the case may be,
as promptly as is practicable and in any event within 60 calendar days after
filing, and to keep it continuously effective for a period of 180 days following
the dates on which each such Demand Filing Statement is declared effective and
60 calendar days following the date on which a receipt or receipts are obtained
therefor from the applicable Canadian Regulatory Authorities or until all
Subject Securities included therein have been sold, if earlier and, in the case
of a Shelf Registration or a Canadian Shelf, for the periods referred to in
clause (i)(y) of the last sentence of Section 2(b) (in either case, the
"Effectiveness Period").
(d) Priority of Securities in Demand Filings. In connection with any
underwritten Demand Filing, if the managing underwriter or underwriters advise
Xxxxx in writing that, in its or their reasonable opinion, the inclusion of the
number of securities proposed to be sold exceeds the number which can be sold in
such offering at the requested price per share, Xxxxx will include in such
registration and/or qualification the number of securities which, in the
reasonable opinion of such underwriter or underwriters, can be sold as follows:
(i) first, the Subject Securities requested to be included in such Demand Filing
by the GSC Investors; (ii) second, the Subject Securities requested to be
included in such Demand Filing, pro rata among the holders of Subject Securities
which have requested their Subject Securities to be included therein pursuant to
piggy-back registration rights; (iii) third, any Common Shares Xxxxx proposes to
sell; and (iv) fourth, other Common Shares requested to be included in such
Demand Filing.
(e) Selection of Underwriters. The GSC Investors shall have the right,
with respect to any Registration Statement or final Canadian Prospectus to be
filed as a result of a Demand Filing, to determine whether the sale of the
Subject Securities under such registration statement or prospectus shall be
underwritten or not, and any managing underwriter or underwriters will be of
nationally recognized standing in the applicable jurisdiction and which will be
selected by the GSC Investors with the consent of Xxxxx, which will not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed.
(f) Registration Statement Form. Xxxxx shall select the Registration
Statement form for any registration pursuant to this Section 2 provided that
Xxxxx shall use Form S-3 or F-3 or shall use a Canadian short form prospectus,
in each case if eligible to do so.
3. Piggyback Filing Rights.
------------------------
(a) Rights to Piggyback. Subject to the last sentence of this Section
3(a), if at any time after the date hereof, Xxxxx proposes to file either (i) a
registration statement under the Securities Act or (ii) a Canadian Prospectus
under Canadian Securities Laws (in either case, a "Proposed Filing") with
respect to any proposed public offering by Xxxxx for its own account or
-8-
by any holders of Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable
or exercisable for Common Shares) and the registration form or prospectus to be
used may be used for the registration or qualification of the Subject Securities
(a "Piggyback Filing"), Xxxxx will give prompt written notice to the Investors
of its intention to effect such a registration or qualification, specifying if
such Piggyback Filing contemplates an underwritten offering, and will use its
reasonable best efforts, subject to Section 3(b) below, to include in such
Piggyback Filing all Subject Securities with respect to which Xxxxx has received
written request from the Investors for inclusion therein within 15 days after
receipt by the Investors of Xxxxx'x notice; provided; however, in the case of a
Piggyback Filing in the form of a Shelf Registration and/or a Canadian Shelf
requested under Section 2(a) of this Agreement or under Section 2(a) of the
Existing Registration Rights Agreement, the Investors shall be entitled to
written notice of such Piggyback Filing and to make a written request for
inclusion of all of their Subject Securities therein for the sole purposes of
(i) selling such securities thereunder in respect of an Underwritten Takedown
Request pursuant to Section 2(a) of this Agreement or Section 2(a) of the
Existing Registration Rights Agreement and no other takedown requests and (ii)
selling such securities thereunder in block trades. Subject Securities with
respect to which such requests for registration or qualification have been
received will be registered or qualified by Xxxxx and offered to the public
pursuant to this Section 3 on the same terms and subject to the same conditions
applicable to the registration or qualification in a Proposed Filing of Common
Shares to be sold by Xxxxx or by persons selling under such Proposed Filing. In
no event shall Xxxxx be required by any Investor requesting inclusion, pursuant
to this Section 3(a), of its Subject Securities in any Piggyback Filing to
reduce the number of securities proposed to be sold by Xxxxx or alter the terms
of the securities proposed to be sold by Xxxxx in order to induce the managing
underwriter or underwriters to permit Subject Securities to be included in a
Proposed Filing. The GSC Investors will not be entitled to include Subject
Securities pursuant to this Section 3(a) in any Registration Statement on Form
S-4 or Form S-8 under the Securities Act (or any successor form or equivalent
form applicable to Xxxxx) or Canadian Prospectus pertaining to the registration
or qualification by prospectus of any securities of Xxxxx in connection with
mergers, acquisitions, exchange offers, subscription offers, dividend
reinvestment plans or stock options or other employee benefit plans.
(b) Priority on Piggyback Filings. In connection with an underwritten
Piggyback Filing, if the managing underwriter or underwriters advise Xxxxx in
writing that, in its or their reasonable opinion, the inclusion of the number of
securities proposed to be registered or qualified exceeds the number which can
be sold in such offering at the requested price per share, Xxxxx will include in
such registration or qualification the number of securities which, in the
reasonable opinion of such underwriter or underwriters, can be sold as follows:
(i) first, the Common Shares Xxxxx proposes to sell for its own account or if
the registration or qualification is in response to a Demand Filing right of a
Person whose registration rights exist as of the date hereof and require such a
priority (including those registration rights under Section 2 of this
Agreement), the securities that the Person(s) demanding such registration or
qualification propose or proposes to sell to the extent of such a priority, (ii)
second, to the extent that any or all Subject Securities have not been given
priority under the immediately preceding clause (i) such remaining Subject
Securities requested to be included in such registration or qualification and
-9-
any securities requested to be included in such registration or qualification by
a Person who exercises its rights to have its securities included in such
registration or qualification pursuant to this Agreement pro rata among them and
(iii) third, other Common Shares requested to be included in such registration
or qualification.
(c) Selection of Underwriters. If any Piggyback Filing is an
underwritten offering, Xxxxx will select a managing underwriter or underwriters
to administer the offering, which managing underwriter or underwriters will be
of nationally recognized standing in the applicable jurisdictions.
(d) Effectiveness. Xxxxx agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to
cause each such Piggyback Filing to be declared effective by the SEC and/or to
have a receipt for a final Canadian Prospectus issued therefor by the applicable
Canadian Regulatory Authorities, as the case may be, within 60 calendar days
after filing, and to keep it continuously effective for a period of 120 days
following the dates on which each such Piggyback Filing is declared effective or
until all Subject Securities included therein have been sold, if earlier, and to
keep it continuously effective for a period of 60 days following the dates on
which each such Piggyback Filing is qualified or until all Subject Securities
included therein have been sold, if earlier.
(e) Lock Up of the Investors. If Xxxxx has complied in all material
respects with its obligation with respect to a Demand Filing or a Piggy-Back
Filing that is a firm commitment underwritten public offering, each holder of
Subject Securities, upon the written request of a managing underwriter with
respect to such offering, shall agree not to sell or otherwise dispose of any
Subject Securities (other than those offered in the public offering) for a
period not to exceed 90 days from the consummation of the public offering;
provided, however, the foregoing shall not apply, in the case of any Demand
Filing or a Piggy-Back Filing that is a firm commitment underwritten public
offering that is for the account of a selling shareholder of Xxxxx, to any
holder of Subject Securities who elects not to participate in such secondary
offering due to the fact that the number of Subject Securities originally
requested by such holder to be included in such offering has been limited by the
operation of Section 2(d) or Section 3(b), as the case may be, to an amount that
is less than 50% of the total number of Subject Securities originally requested
by such holder to be included in such offering.
4. Registration Procedures.
-----------------------
In connection with Xxxxx'x obligation to (i) in the case of U.S.
Filings, file Registration Statements or (ii) in the case of Canadian filings,
obtain receipts for Canadian Prospectuses, pursuant to Sections 2 or 3 hereof,
Xxxxx shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect such registration and/or
obtain such a receipt or receipts for such Canadian Prospectus to permit the
sale of such Subject Securities in accordance with the intended method or
methods of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto Xxxxx shall:
(a) before filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus or any
amendments or supplements thereto, including documents incorporated by reference
after the initial filing of the Registration Statement or Canadian Prospectus,
furnish to (i), in connection with Xxxxx'x
-10-
obligations pursuant to Section 2, the GSC Investors, or (ii), in connection
with Xxxxx'x obligations pursuant to Section 3, the Investors, and the managing
underwriters, if any, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which
documents will be subject to the review and comment of the GSC Investors and
such managing underwriters and their respective counsel, making Xxxxx'x
representatives available for discussion of such document and make such changes
in such document prior to the filing thereof as counsel for the GSC Investors or
underwriters may reasonably request, and Xxxxx shall not file any Registration
Statement or amendment thereto or any Prospectus or any amendment or supplement
thereto (including such documents incorporated by reference) to which the GSC
Investors or the Investors (as the case may be) or the managing underwriters, if
any, shall reasonably object on a timely basis;
(b) other than during a Black Out Period, prepare and file with the SEC
and/or Canadian Regulatory Authorities, as the case may be, (i) in the case of a
U.S. Filing, such amendments and post-effective amendments to any Registration
Statement, and such supplements to the U.S. Prospectus, and (ii) in the case of
a Canadian Filing, such amendments or supplements to a Canadian Prospectus, in
either such case, as may be reasonably requested by the GSC Investors or the
Investors (as the case may be) or any underwriter of Subject Securities, or as
may be required by either (A) the Securities Act or any rules or regulations
promulgated thereunder or (B) Canadian Securities Laws, respectively, or
otherwise necessary or advisable to keep the Registration Statement or Canadian
Prospectus effective for the applicable period, and provide copies of such
document to counsel to the GSC Investors or the Investors (as the case may be)
and to the managing underwriters, if any;

applicable period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the
sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement, supplement to the U.S.
Prospectus or the Canadian Prospectus or amendments or supplements thereto;
(e) notify promptly the GSC Investors or the Investors (as the case may
be) and the managing underwriters, if any, and (if requested by any such Person)
confirm such notification in writing:
(1) when (i) in the case of a U.S. Filing, the U.S. Prospectus or any
U.S. Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and,
with respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment,
when the same has become effective and (ii) in the case of a Canadian
Filing, the Canadian Prospectus or any
-11-
amendment or supplement thereto has been filed and when a final receipt or

indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so
to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which
it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 6 unless
the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced thereby. In case any such action
shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify an
indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, such indemnifying party shall be
entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly
with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense
thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who
shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), be counsel to the indemnifying party),
and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its
election so to assume the defense thereof, such indemnifying party shall not be
liable to such indemnified party under this Section 6 for any legal expenses of
other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable
costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent
of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to
the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or
claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought
hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party
to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i)
includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability
arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to,
or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of
any indemnified party.
(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6
is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under
subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each
indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection
with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages
or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and
indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by
such indemnifying party or by such indemnified party, and the parties'
-22-
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not
be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6(d) were
determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Investors or any underwriters,
selling agents or other securities professionals or all of them were treated as
one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not
take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 6(d).
The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above
shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably
incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending
any such action or claim. 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 who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. The obligations of the Investors, any other holder of Subject
Securities and any underwriters, selling agents or other securities
professionals in this Section 6(d) to contribute shall be several (in proportion
to the percentage of Subject Securities registered or underwritten, as the case
may be, by them) and not joint.
(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6, in no event
will either (i) any Investor or any other holder of Subject Securities selling
such securities pursuant to a Registration Statement or Canadian Prospectus
hereunder be liable to any Person under this Section 6 or otherwise with respect
to any registration or prospectus qualification hereunder for any amounts in
excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds to be received by such Investor
from the sale of its Subject Securities (after deducting any discounts and
commissions applicable thereto, but before deducting any expenses) pursuant to
any (A) in the case of a U.S. Filing, Registration Statement and (B) in the case
of a Canadian Filing, Canadian Prospectus, under which such Subject Securities
are to be registered under the Securities Act or Canadian Securities Laws, as
the case may be, or (ii) any underwriter, selling agent or other securities
professional be liable to any Person hereunder for any amounts in excess of the
discount, commission or other compensation payable to such underwriter, selling
agent or other securities professional with respect to the Subject Securities
underwritten by it and distributed to the public.
(f) The obligations of Xxxxx under this Section 6 shall be in addition
to any liability which Xxxxx may otherwise have to any Indemnified Person and
the obligations of any Indemnified Person under this Section 6 shall be in
addition to any liability which such Indemnified Person may otherwise have to
Xxxxx. The remedies provided in this Section 6 are not exclusive and shall not
limit any rights or remedies that may otherwise be available to an indemnified
party at law or in equity.
7. Rule 144.
--------
Xxxxx covenants that it will timely file the reports required to be
filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder (or, if Xxxxx is not required to file
such reports, it will, upon the request of the GSC Investors or CLGI make
publicly available such information as necessary to permit sales
-23-
pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act), and it will take such further
action as the GSC Investors or CLGI may reasonably request, all to the extent
required from time to time to enable the GSC Investors and CLGI to sell Subject
Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation
of the exemptions provided by (a) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such
Rule may be amended from time to time, or (b) any similar rule or regulation
hereafter adopted by the SEC, including providing any legal opinions. Upon the
request of the GSC Investors or CLGI, Xxxxx will deliver to the GSC Investors or
CLGI, as the case may be, a written statement as to whether it has complied with
such information and requirements.
8. Approval for Listing.
---------------------
Promptly after the date hereof and after any subsequent increase in the
number of Subject Securities, Xxxxx shall take all necessary action to cause all
of the Subject Securities to be approved for listing, subject to official notice
of issuance, on, at the election of the GSC Investors or such holder of Subject
Securities, either the New York Stock Exchange or The Toronto Stock Exchange, as
the case may be, or other securities exchange or dealer quotation system on
which the Common Shares may then be listed or authorized for quotation.
9. Term of Registration Rights.
----------------------------
The rights of the GSC Investors and any other holder of Subject
Securities with respect to the registration rights granted pursuant to this
Agreement shall remain in effect, subject to the terms hereof, so long as there
are Subject Securities or securities which are convertible or exchangeable for
Subject Securities issued and outstanding.
10. Further Agreements.
-------------------
(a) Xxxxx will not file any registration statement under the Securities
Act or file a Canadian Prospectus under Canadian Securities Laws unless it shall
first have given to the GSC Investors and any other holder of Subject Securities
for so long as the GSC Investors or such other holder owns beneficially (as such
term is defined in the Exchange Act or Canadian Securities Laws, as the case may
be) 6.6% or more of the Common Shares of Xxxxx at the time outstanding or is
otherwise deemed to be a control person under the Securities Act or Canadian
Securities Law, at least 10 days' prior written notice thereof and, if so
requested by the GSC Investors or such other holder within 10 days after such
notice, the GSC Investors and such other holder shall have the right, at any
time when, in the reasonable judgment of the GSC Investors or such other holder,
the GSC Investors or such holder is or might be deemed a controlling person of
Xxxxx within the meaning of the Securities Act or Canadian Securities Laws, (i)
to participate in the preparation and filing of each such registration statement
or prospectus to the extent provided in Section 4 hereof; (ii) to receive the
documents and notices specified in Section 4 hereof and to make the requests
specified in Section 4 hereof; (iii) to receive signed copies of the documents
specified in Section 4 hereof addressed to the GSC Investors and such other
holder; and (iv) to require Xxxxx to pay the fees and disbursements of counsel
to the GSC Investors and such other holder which assists in such participation.
If any such registration statement or prospectus refers to the GSC Investors or
such other holder by name or otherwise as the holder
-24-
of any securities of Xxxxx, then the GSC Investors and such other holder shall
have the right (in addition to any other rights it may have under this
Agreement) to require, in the event that such reference to the GSC Investors or
such other holder, by name or otherwise is not required by the Securities Act or
Canadian Securities Laws or any rules and regulations promulgated thereunder,
the deletion of the references to the GSC Investors and such other holder.
11. Miscellaneous.
--------------
(a) Remedies. The GSC Investors and any other holder of Subject
Securities, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein
and granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific
performance of its rights under this Agreement. Xxxxx agrees that monetary
damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a
breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive the
defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be
adequate.
(b) Registration Rights of Other Persons. As of the date hereof, Xxxxx
has not granted to any Person the right to request a registration of securities
of Xxxxx under the Securities Act and/or Canadian Securities Laws or the right
to be included as a selling stockholder in connection with any registration of
Subject Securities, other than the Existing Registration Rights Agreement. Xxxxx
may grant to any Person other than the GSC Investors the right to request a
registration of securities of Xxxxx under the Securities Act and/or Canadian
Securities Laws or the right to be included as a selling stockholder in
connection with any registration of Subject Securities; provided, however, that
the granting of any such rights shall not conflict with or otherwise alter any
rights granted to the GSC Investors hereunder; and provided, further, that this
Agreement shall be amended to provide the GSC Investors and each of the holders
of Subject Securities with the benefit of any term in such agreement that is
more favorable than a term herein. The rights granted to the GSC Investors
hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with the
rights granted to the holders of Xxxxx'x securities under any other agreements.
(c) Adjustments Affecting Subject Securities. Xxxxx will not take any
action, or permit any change to occur, with respect to the Subject Securities
which would (i) adversely affect the ability of the GSC Investors or any other
holder of Subject Securities to include such Subject Securities in a
registration undertaken pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) adversely affect the
marketability of such Subject Securities in any such registration.
(d) Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement, including this Section
11(d), may be amended, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions
hereof may be given, only by a written instrument duly executed by Xxxxx and the
GSC Investors and each other holder of Subject Securities. Each holder of
Subject Securities outstanding at the time of any such amendment, waiver or
consent or thereafter shall be bound by any amendment, waiver or consent
effected pursuant to this Section 11(d), whether or not any notice, writing or
marking indicating such amendment, waiver or consent appears on the Subject
Securities or is delivered to such holder.

(f) Parties in Interest; Benefits of Registration Rights. The parties
to this Agreement intend that the GSC Investors, CLGI and their successors and
permitted assigns holding Subject Securities, including, without limitation, any
current or former partner of CLGI (or, in the case of any current or former
partner of CLGI that is itself a partnership, any partner of that partnership
holding Subject Securities), shall be entitled to receive the benefits of this
Agreement and that each such Person shall be bound by the terms and provisions
of this Agreement by reason of its election with respect to the Subject
Securities which are included in a Registration Statement or Canadian Prospectus
filed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. All the terms and provisions of
this Agreement shall be binding upon, shall inure to the benefit of and shall be
enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto. In
the event that any transferee or distributee of any Investor shall acquire
Subject Securities, in any manner permitted by the Debenture Purchase Agreement
or the Conversion Inducement Agreement, whether by gift, bequest, purchase,
operation of law or otherwise, the Investor and such transferee or distributee
may, without any further writing or action of any kind, in the case of any
transferee or distributee of the GSC Investors, jointly as to any Demand Filing
Statement or any Underwritten Takedown Request, and in the case of any
transferee or distributee of any Investor, including the GSC Investors,
severally as to any Piggyback Filing, exercise the piggyback registration rights
hereunder in such manner and in such proportion as to any Demand Filing
Statement as set forth in Section 3(a) and, if any such transferee or
distributee of the GSC Investors or any other Investor exercises such
registration rights, such transferee or distributee shall be conclusively deemed
to have agreed to be bound by and to perform all of the terms and provisions of
this Agreement to the aforesaid extent.
(g) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which
when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
(h) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.
(i) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any
provisions relating to conflicts of laws.
(j) Currency. Unless otherwise specified, all references to currency
herein are to lawful money of the United States of America.
(k) Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions
contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstances, is held
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the validity,
legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of
the remaining provisions hereof shall not be in any way impaired or affected
thereby, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges of the parties
hereto shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
-27-
(l) Survival. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations,
warranties and other provisions set forth in this Agreement or made pursuant
hereto shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation
(or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of the GSC
Investors or any other holder of Subject Securities, any director or officer of
the GSC Investors or any other holder of Subject Securities, any agent or
underwriter, any director, officer or partner of such agent or underwriter, or
any controlling person of any of the foregoing, and shall survive the transfer
and registration of the Subject Securities by the GSC Investors or any other
holder of Subject Securities.
(m) Entire Agreement. This 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, other than the Existing Registration Rights
Agreement. There are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings,
other than those set forth or referred to herein with respect to the
registration rights granted by Xxxxx with respect to the Subject Securities.

parties with respect to such subject matter, other than the Existing
