REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 2.01 Shelf Registration.

(a) The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement under the Securities Act providing for the resale of the Registrable Securities as permitted by Rule 415 of the Securities Act with respect to all of the Holders (the “Shelf Registration Statement”) no later than the earlier of (i) the one year anniversary of this Agreement and (ii) 30 days after the date the Company first becomes eligible to use a Form S-3 (the “Filing Deadline”). The Company shall

use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as reasonably practicable after the initial filing of the Shelf Registration Statement, but in any event no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Filing Deadline (the “Effectiveness Deadline”). The Shelf Registration Statement shall provide for the resale pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, the Holders of any and all Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.01 to be continuously effective, supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that it is available for the resale of all Registrable Securities by the Holders until all Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement have ceased to be Registrable Securities (the “Effectiveness Period”). The Shelf Registration Statement when effective (and the documents incorporated therein by reference) shall comply as to form in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. As soon as practicable following the date that the Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective, but in any event within two (2) business days of such date, the Company shall provide the Holders with written notice of the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement. Once a Holder’s Registrable Securities become eligible for resale without restriction and without the need for current public information pursuant to any section of Rule 144 (or any similar provision then in effect) under the Securities Act, assuming the Holder of such Registrable Securities is not an affiliate (as defined in Rule 144(a)(1) under the Securities Act) of the Company, such Holder may, at any time, request that the Company take such steps as are reasonably necessary to deregister such Holder’s Registrable Securities and in connection therewith, such Holder’s rights under this Agreement shall all be terminated, including without limitation the right to demand an Underwritten Offering and the right to participate in a Piggyback Registration Statement and, further, such Holder shall no longer be subject to any obligations under this Agreement, including specifically but not limited to the obligation to enter into letter agreements with underwriters pursuant to Section 2.02.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company may, upon written notice to any Selling Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in a Shelf Registration Statement, suspend such Selling Holder’s use of any prospectus that is a part of such Shelf Registration Statement (in which event the Selling Holder shall suspend sales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement) if (i) the Company is pursuing an acquisition, merger, reorganization, disposition or other similar transaction and the Company determines in good faith that the Company’s ability to pursue or consummate such a transaction would be materially and adversely affected by any required disclosure of such transaction in such Shelf Registration Statement or (ii) the Company has experienced some other material non-public event, the disclosure of which at such time, in the good faith judgment of the Company, would materially and adversely affect the Company; provided, however, that in no event shall the Selling Holders be suspended from selling Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement for a period that exceeds an aggregate of forty-five (45) days in any 90-day period or ninety (90) days in any 365-day period. Upon disclosure of such information or the termination of the condition described above, the Company shall provide prompt notice to the Selling Holders whose Registrable Securities are included in such Shelf Registration Statement, and shall promptly terminate any suspension of sales it has put into effect and shall take such other actions necessary or appropriate to permit registered sales of Registrable Securities as contemplated in this Agreement.

Section 2.02 Secondary Offering.

(a) Request for a Secondary Offering.

(i) Following the Effectiveness Deadline, if the Holders of at least thirty percent (30%) of the then outstanding Registrable Securities elect to dispose of all or any portion of their Registrable Securities pursuant to an Underwritten Offering, the anticipated aggregate offering price, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, of which is in excess of $30,000,000, the Company shall, upon the written request by such Holders, use its commercially reasonable efforts to (A) retain underwriters in order to permit such Holders to effect such sale through an Underwritten Offering (a “Secondary Offering”); (B) if a registration statement is not then already available and effective, prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement under the Securities Act providing for a Secondary Offering as permitted by Rule 415 of the Securities Act with respect to such Registrable Securities (a “Secondary Offering Registration Statement”); and (C) cause such Secondary Offering Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as reasonably practicable after the initial filing thereof. In addition, the Company shall give prompt written notice (including notice by electronic mail) to each other Holder (and to the Holders under the Existing Registration Rights Agreements) regarding such proposed Secondary Offering, and such notice shall offer such Holders the opportunity to include in such Secondary Offering Registration Statement such number of Registrable Securities as each such Holder may request. Each such notice shall specify, at a minimum, the number and type of securities proposed to be registered, the proposed date of filing of such Secondary Offering Registration Statement with the Commission, the proposed means of distribution, the proposed Secondary Managing Underwriter and other underwriters (if any and if known) and a good faith estimate by the Company of the proposed minimum offering price of such securities (if known). Each such Holder shall make such request in writing to the Company (including by electronic mail) within five (5) business days after the receipt of any such notice from the Company, which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holder, and, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Section 2.02, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to include in such Secondary Offering Registration Statement all Registrable Securities held by such Holders.

(ii) The obligation of the Company to retain underwriters shall include the preparation and entry into an underwriting agreement, in customary form, with the Secondary Managing Underwriter and other underwriters, if any, which shall include, among other provisions, indemnities to the effect and to the extent provided in Section 2.07 and customary lock-up provisions for the Company and its directors and officers.

(b) Limitation on Offerings. In no event shall the Company be required hereunder to participate in more than four (4) Secondary Offerings pursuant to the terms hereof; provided, that should the Holder or Holders requesting such Secondary Offering be unable to sell at least eighty percent (80%) of the Registrable Securities requested to be included therein pursuant to Section 2.02(c),

the Company shall be required to participate in an additional Secondary Offering pursuant to the terms hereof; provided, further, that if a Secondary Offering is commenced but terminated prior to the pricing thereof for any reason, the Company shall be required to participate in an additional Secondary Offering pursuant to the terms hereof.

(c) Priority. If in connection with a Secondary Offering pursuant to this Section 2.02, the Secondary Managing Underwriter shall advise the Company that, in its reasonable opinion, the number of securities requested and otherwise proposed to be included in such Underwritten Offering, including pursuant to the Existing Registration Rights Agreements, exceeds the number that can be sold in such offering without having an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the securities to be offered (an “Adverse Effect”), then the Company shall include in such Underwritten Offering the number of Registrable Securities that such Secondary Managing Underwriter advises the Company can be sold without having such Adverse Effect, with such number to be allocated (i) first, to the Selling Holders, as defined in and pursuant to the Leucadia Registration Rights Agreement, to the Selling Holders, as defined in and pursuant to the Battlecat Registration Rights Agreement, and to the Selling Holders hereunder, pro rata based on the relative number of Registrable Securities (as defined herein or in the Leucadia Registration Rights Agreement or the Battlecat Registration Rights Agreement, as applicable) proposed to be offered and sold by such Selling Holders, and (ii) second, to the Selling Holders, as defined in and pursuant to, the EF Registration Rights Agreement.

(d) Selection of Secondary Managing Underwriter. In connection with any Secondary Offering under this Agreement, the Secondary Managing Underwriter shall be selected by the Holders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in such Underwritten Offering, which underwriter shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company.

(e) Withdrawal. If any Selling Holder disapproves of the terms of a Secondary Offering, such Person may elect to withdraw its request that the Company undertake such offering by written notice to the Company; provided, however, that such withdrawal must be made at a time prior to the time of pricing of such offering. No such withdrawal shall affect the Company’s obligation to pay Registration Expenses, if applicable.

Section 2.03 Piggyback Rights.

(a) Participation. So long as any Holder has Registrable Securities, if the Company proposes to file, whether for its own account or for the account of the Holders, (i) a shelf registration statement (other than a Shelf Registration Statement contemplated by Section 2.01(b)), or (ii) a registration statement (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor forms thereto) (each of (i) and (ii), a “Piggyback Registration Statement”), then the Company shall give prompt written notice (a “Piggyback Notice”) (including notice by electronic mail) to each Holder regarding such proposed registration, and such notice shall offer such Holders the opportunity to include in such Piggyback Registration Statement such number of Registrable Securities as each such Holder may request. Each Piggyback Notice shall specify, at a minimum, the number and type of securities proposed to be registered, the proposed date of filing of such Piggyback Registration Statement with the Commission, the proposed means of distribution, the proposed Primary Managing Underwriter and other underwriters (if any and if known) and a good faith estimate by the Company of the proposed minimum offering price of such securities. Each such Holder shall make such request in writing to the Company (including by electronic mail)

within five (5) business days (or one (1) business day in connection with any overnight or bought Underwritten Offering) after the receipt of any such Piggyback Notice, which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holder, and, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in such Piggyback Registration Statement all Registrable Securities held by such Holders; provided, that if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to file a Piggyback Registration Statement and prior to the effective date of such Piggyback Registration Statement, the Company shall determine for any reason not to have such Piggyback Registration Statement be declared effective, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination within five (5) business days thereof to each Holder of Registrable Securities and, thereupon, shall not be obligated to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such Piggyback Registration Statement (but shall nevertheless pay the Registration Expenses in connection therewith), without prejudice, however, to the rights of the Holders of Registrable Securities that a registration be effected under Section 2.01 or Section 2.02.

Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Selling Holder or any such directors, officers, employees agents or controlling Person, and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Selling Holder.

(b) By Each Holder. Each Selling Holder agrees severally and not jointly to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each other Holder, its directors, officers, employees and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company or such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or of the Exchange Act, and its directors, officers, employees and agents, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to the Selling Holders, but only with respect to information regarding such Selling Holder furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Selling Holder expressly for inclusion in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, prospectus supplement, free writing prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto; provided, that no Selling Holder shall be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Selling Holder, its ownership and title to the Registrable Shares and its intended method of distribution. The liability of each Selling Holder under this Section 2.07 shall not be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of any Selling Expenses) received by such Selling Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification.

(c) Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may

have to any indemnified party other than under this Section 2.07. In any action brought against any indemnified party, it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 2.07 for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected; provided, however, that, (i) if the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense or employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party or (ii) if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and counsel to the indemnified party shall have concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to the indemnified party that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, then the indemnified party shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other reasonable expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no indemnified party shall settle any action brought against it with respect to which such indemnified party is entitled to indemnification hereunder without the consent of the indemnifying party, unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, and includes a complete and unconditional release from all liability of, the indemnifying party and further, no indemnifying party shall settle any action brought against any indemnified party with respect to which such indemnified party is entitled to indemnification hereunder without the consent of such indemnified party, unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, and includes a complete and unconditional release from all liability of, the indemnified party.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.07 is held by a court or government agency of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to any indemnified party or is insufficient to hold them harmless in respect of any Losses, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of such indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that in no event shall the Selling Holder be required to contribute an aggregate amount in excess of the dollar amount of proceeds (net of Selling Expenses) received by such Selling Holder. The relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party 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 has been made by, or relates to, information supplied by such party, and the parties’ 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 contributions pursuant to this paragraph were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the Losses referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be deemed to include any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any Loss that is

the subject of this paragraph. 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 is not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e) Other Indemnification. The provisions of this Section 2.07 shall be in addition to any other rights to indemnification or contribution that an indemnified party may have pursuant to law, equity, contract or otherwise.

Section 2.08 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission that may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information regarding the Company available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times from and after the date hereof;

(b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act at all times from and after the date hereof; and

(c) so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to such Holder forthwith upon request a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed as such Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing such Holder to sell any such securities without registration.

Section 2.09 Transfer or Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities granted to an Initial Holder by the Company under this Agreement may be transferred or assigned by such Initial Holder to one or more transferees or assignees of such Registrable Securities; provided, however, that (a) (i) such transferee or assignee is an Affiliate of such Holder, or (ii) upon such transfer or assignment, such transferee or assignee will hold at least ten percent (10%) of the total issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, (b) the Company is given written notice prior to any said transfer or assignment, stating the name and address of each such transferee or assignee and identifying the Registrable Securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned, and (c) each such transferee or assignee agrees to be bound by this Agreement.

Section 2.10 Restrictions on Public Sale by Holders of Registrable Securities. Each Holder who, along with its Affiliates, holds at least five percent (5%) of the then-outstanding shares of Common Stock (on an as-converted basis giving effect to the conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock into Common Stock) agrees to enter into a customary letter agreement with underwriters providing such Holder will not effect any public sale or distribution of the Registrable Securities during the 60 calendar day period beginning on the date of a prospectus or prospectus supplement filed with the Commission with respect to the pricing of an Underwritten Offering, provided that (i) the duration of the foregoing restrictions shall be no longer than the duration of the shortest restriction generally imposed by the underwriters on the Company or the officers, directors or any other shareholder of the Company on whom a restriction is imposed; and (ii) the restrictions set forth in this Section 2.10 shall not apply to any Registrable Securities that are otherwise sold in connection with an Underwritten Offering pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 3.09 Severability of Provisions.

Section 3.10 Scope of 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.

Section 3.11 Amendment.

Section 3.15 Independent Nature of Purchaser’s Obligations. The obligations of each Holder under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Holder, and no Holder shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Holder under this Agreement. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Holder pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Holders are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Holder shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Holder to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
