event occurs requiring registration, the balance of the non-registered shares shall be registered; and (iii) Investor, at its own cost and expense, desires to have the non-registered shares registered.

13
any holder of securities of the Company (other than a Holder) on a pro rata basis. In making any such reduction, all shares held by employees of the Company which are not Registrable Shares shall first be excluded. No such reduction shall (i) reduce the securities being offered by the Company for its own account to be included in the registration and underwriting or (ii) reduce the amount of Registrable Shares of the selling Holders included in the registration below thirty three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the total amount of securities included in such registration, unless such offering is the Initial Offering, in which event any or all of the Registrable Shares of the Holders may be excluded. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter, delivered at least ten (10) business days prior to the effective date of the registration statement. Any Registrable Shares excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration. For any Holder which is a partnership, limited liability company or corporation, the partners and members, retired partners and members and shareholders of such Holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and members and retired partners and members and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing person shall be deemed to be a single “Holder,” and any pro rata reduction with respect to such “Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “Holder,” as defined in this sentence.
b. Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 7.2 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. The Registration Expenses of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 7.4 hereof.
7.3 Form S-3 Registration. If the Company shall receive from Holders of at least seventy five percent (75%) of the Registrable Shares then outstanding a written request or requests that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration statement and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Shares owned by such Holder or Holders, the Company will:
a. promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders of Registrable Securities; and
b. as soon as practicable, effect such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holder’s or Holders’ Registrable Shares as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Shares of any other Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 7.3:
(i) if Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders, or
14
(ii) if the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Shares and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public of less than five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000), or
(iii) if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company or its chief executive officer stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for such Form S-3 registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration statement for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the Holder or Holders under this Section 7.3; provided, that such right to delay a request shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve (12) month period, or
(iv) if the Company has, within the twelve (12) month period preceding the date of such request, already effected one (1) registration on Form S-3 for the Holders pursuant to this Section 7.3.
c. Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a Form S-3 registration statement covering the Registrable Shares and other securities so requested to be registered as soon as practicable after receipt of the request or requests of the Holders. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall not be counted as demands for registration or registrations effected pursuant to Section 7.1 or Section 7.2, respectively.
7.4 Expenses of Registration. Except as specifically provided herein, all Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to Sections 7.1, 7.2 or 7.3 herein shall be borne by the Company. All Selling Expenses applicable to Registrable Shares sold by Holders incurred in connection with any registrations hereunder shall be borne by the Holders of the securities so registered pro rata on the basis of the number of shares so registered.
7.5 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:
a. Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Shares and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as possible, and in any event within thirty (30) days of the date on which the obligation to effect such registration arises, and, upon the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for up to one hundred eighty (180) days or, if a shelf registration pursuant to Securities Act Rule 415, until the Holder or Holders have completed the distribution related thereto.
b. Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to
15
the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement for the period set forth in paragraph (a) above.
c. Furnish to the Holders such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Shares owned by them.
d. Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders.
e. In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter(s) of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement, provided that such underwriting agreement shall not provide for indemnification or contribution obligations on the part of the Holders greater than the obligations set forth in Sections 7.7(b) and (d).
f. Notify each Holder of Registrable Shares covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing and correct such misrepresentation or omission as expeditiously as reasonably possible.
g. Use its best efforts to furnish, on the date that such Registrable Shares are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated as of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and (ii) to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities, a letter dated as of such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering addressed to the underwriters.
h. Cooperate and assist in any filings to be made with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
i. Cause all such Registrable Shares to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed, or cause such Registrable Shares to be authorized for trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market if any similar securities issued by the Company are then so authorized, if requested by the Holders of a majority of such Registrable Securities.
16
j. Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Shares registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration.
k. In connection with an underwritten offering, to the extent requested by the managing underwriters or Holders, participate in and support customary efforts to sell the Registrable Shares in the offering; including without limitation, participating in “road shows.”
7.6 Delay of Registration; Furnishing Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to Section 7.1, 7.2 or 7.3 that the selling Holders shall furnish to the Company such information regarding themselves, the Registrable Shares held by them and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the registration of their Registrable Securities.
7.7 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Shares are included in a registration statement under Section 7.1, 7.2 or 7.3:
a. To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the partners, stockholders, members, officers and directors of each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”) by the Company: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law in connection with the offering covered by such registration statement; and the Company will pay as incurred to each such Holder, partner, stockholder, member, officer, director, underwriter or controlling person any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7.7(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by such Holder, partner, officer, director, underwriter or controlling person of such Holder.
17
b. To the extent permitted by law, each Holder will, if Registrable Shares held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration, qualifications or compliance is being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its stockholders, directors, officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter and any other Holder selling securities under such registration statement or any of such other Holder’s partners, stockholders, members, officers and directors, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which the Company or any such stockholder, director, officer, controlling person, underwriter or other such Holder, or the partners, stockholders, members, officers and directors of such other Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder under an instrument duly executed by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will pay as incurred any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer, controlling person, underwriter or other Holder, or the partners, stockholders, members, officers and directors of such other Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if it is judicially determined that there was such a Violation; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7.7(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided further, that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 7.7 exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder; provided further, that any payments will be repaid to each such Holder if the Company acted recklessly.
c. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7.7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 7.7, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if in the reasonable opinion of counsel representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if (and only to the extent) materially prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section
18
7.7, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 7.7.
d. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.7 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable law contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the Violation(s) that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by a Holder hereunder exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.
e. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 7.7 shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Shares in a registration statement and the termination of this Agreement. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
7.8 Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Shares pursuant to this Article VII may be transferred or assigned by a Holder to a transferee or assignee of Registrable Shares which (a) is a subsidiary, parent, stockholder, general partner, limited partner, retired partner, member, retired member or Affiliate of a Holder, (b) is a Holder’s Immediate Family member or an estate or trust of or for the benefit of an individual Holder, or (c) acquires at least twenty percent (20%) of the Registrable Shares held by such Holder; provided, however, (i) the transferor shall, within ten (10) days after such transfer, furnish to the Company written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned and (ii) such transferee shall become a party to this Agreement.
7.9 “Market Stand-Off” Agreement; Agreement to Furnish Information. Each Holder hereby agrees that such Holder shall, if requested by the underwriter of any underwritten public offering of the Company’s Common Stock, agree with such underwriter not to sell, transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale of, any Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company held by such Holder (other than those included in the registration) for a period specified by the representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company (the “Restricted Period”) not to exceed ninety (90) days following the effective date of any registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act in
19
connection with the Initial Offering; provided that such agreements shall not apply to Registrable Shares included in such registration statement or sales or similar transactions effected pursuant to a valid exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Each Holder agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriter which are consistent with the foregoing or which are necessary to give further effect thereto. In addition, if requested by the Company or the representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, each Holder shall provide, within ten (10) days of such request, such information concerning such Holder as may be reasonably requested by the Company or such representative in connection with the completion of any public offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act. The obligations described in this Section 7.9 shall not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to a Rule 145 transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares of Common Stock (or other securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of the Restricted Period.
7.10 Information Regarding the Company. With a view to making available to the Investor the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Shares to the public without registration, the Company agrees to:
a. Following the date upon which the Company registers the Common Stock with the Commission under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, the Company will file with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act; and
b. So long as Investor owns any Shares, furnish to Investor forthwith upon request: (i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company; and (iii) such other reports and documents as the Investor may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing it to sell the Shares without registration.
7.11 Restrictions on Transfer.
a. Each certificate representing Shares shall (unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of this Agreement) be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially similar to the legend contained in Section 4.5(e).
b. The Company shall be obligated to reissue promptly unlegended certificates at the request of any holder thereof if the holder shall have obtained an opinion of counsel (which counsel may be counsel to the Company) reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that the securities proposed to be disposed of may lawfully be so disposed of without registration, qualification or legend.
c. Any legend endorsed on an instrument pursuant to applicable state securities laws and the stop-transfer instructions with respect to such securities shall be removed
20
upon receipt by the Company of an order of the appropriate blue sky authority authorizing such removal.
