“1.5 The term “New Preferred Stock” means shares of the Company's Series A Convertible Junior Participating Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share.”
(b) Section 1.7 of the Registration Rights Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows:
“1.8 The term “Registrable Shares” means and includes (i) any shares of Class A Common Stock issued pursuant to the Issuance Agreement which constitute “Vested Shares” (as defined in the Issuance Agreement), (ii) the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable or issued upon conversion of the Class B Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock; (iii) the shares of Class A Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the New Preferred Stock; (iv) the shares of Class A Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Class B Common Stock issued or issuable upon exercise of those certain warrants that were issued to the purchasers of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock; (v) the shares of Class A Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Class B Common Stock issued or issuable upon exercise of that certain warrant issued to PayPal, Inc. on March 3, 2009 (the “PayPal Warrant”); and (vi) any other shares of Class A Common Stock issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, the shares listed in (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) above, and in each case held by a party to this Agreement and such party's permitted assignee, excluding in all cases, however, any Registrable Shares sold by a person in a transaction in which his or her rights under Section 2 are not assigned.”
2. Effectiveness of Amendment. Conditioned upon the occurrence of the Effective Time and the execution of this Amendment by the Company and the Holders of not less than 67% of the Registrable Shares then outstanding, the Registration Rights Agreement shall be amended as set forth in this Amendment.

3. Full Force and Effect. The parties agree that all terms of the Registration Rights Agreement not otherwise amended hereunder shall remain in full force and effect.
4. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
5. Law. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California; provided, however, that if any California law or laws require or permit the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction to this Amendment, such California law or laws shall be disregarded with the effect that the remaining laws of the State of California shall nonetheless apply.
