5.4.2. use its best efforts to register or qualify the Parent Ordinary Shares included in any Registration Statement filed in accordance with Section 5.1 hereof under such securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Company Stockholder reasonably requests and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the Company Stockholder to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Parent Ordinary Shares owned by the Company Stockholder; provided that Parent will not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 5.4.2, (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction by reason of such registration or qualification of any Parent Ordinary Shares, or (iii) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;

5.4.3. use its best efforts to cause the Parent Ordinary Shares covered by any such Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of Parent to enable the Company Stockholder to

consummate the disposition of such Parent Ordinary Shares in the manner contemplated by the Registration Statement;

5.4.4. notify the Company Stockholder, 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 any such Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the Company Stockholder, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

5.4.5. cause all such Parent Ordinary Shares to be listed on each securities exchange or quoted on each quotation service on which similar securities issued by Parent are then listed, provided that the applicable listing requirements are satisfied;

5.4.6. take such actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Parent Ordinary Shares;

5.4.7. otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.

5.5. The Company Stockholder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from Parent of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 5.4.4 hereof, the Company Stockholder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Parent Ordinary Shares pursuant to the registration statement covering such securities until the Company Stockholder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 5.4.4 hereof, and, if so directed by Parent, the Company Stockholder will deliver to Parent (at Parent’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in the Company Stockholder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Parent Ordinary Shares that is current at the time of receipt of such notice.

5.6. Indemnification.

5.6.1. Parent agrees to indemnify, to the full extent permitted by law, the Company Stockholder, its officers and directors and each person who controls the Company Stockholder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they

were made) not misleading, and Parent will reimburse legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company Stockholder in investigating or defending any claims relating to or arising from such untrue statements or omissions, in all cases except insofar as such are caused by (i) statements or omissions made in reliance upon or contained in any information with respect to the Company Stockholder furnished in writing to Parent by such persons expressly for use therein or (ii) the Company Stockholder’s failure to deliver a copy of the final prospectus as then amended or supplemented after Parent has furnished the Company Stockholder with a sufficient number of copies of the same, but only if delivery of same is required by law and if same would have cured the defect giving rise to any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense. Such indemnification shall be effective irrespective of any investigation by the Company Stockholder.

5.6.2. In connection with any Registration Statement relating to a sale by the Company Stockholder of Parent Ordinary Shares, the Company Stockholder thereof will furnish to Parent in writing such information and affidavits with respect to the Company Stockholder as Parent reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement (or prospectus contained therein) and will indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, Parent, its directors, its officers who sign the registration statement and each person who controls Parent (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated in such Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with such written information or affidavits relating to Company Stockholder furnished to Parent by Company Stockholder expressly for use therein.

5.6.3. Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder agrees to give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party after the receipt by such person of any written notice of the commencement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation or threat thereof made in writing for which such person will claim indemnification or contribution pursuant to this Section 5.6 and shall permit the indemnifying party, as a condition to the indemnification hereunder, to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. If the indemnifying party is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim, it will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for the indemnified party with respect to such claim. The indemnifying party will not be subject to any

liability for any settlement made without its consent. Failure of notice by the Company Stockholder entitled to indemnification hereunder will not relieve Parent of its obligations under this Section 5.6 unless Parent is actually prejudiced thereby.

5.6.4. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5.6 from the indemnifying party is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute (on the basis of relative fault) to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses. The relative fault of such indemnifying and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying or indemnified parties, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5.6.3, any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.6.4, in no case shall Company Stockholder be liable or responsible for any amount in excess of the net proceeds received by Company Stockholder from the sale of the Parent Ordinary Shares which are included in any Registration Statement contemplated by this Section 5. 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.

6. Rule 144. Parent covenants that it will timely file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder, and it will take such further action as Company Stockholder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable Company Stockholder to sell Parent Ordinary Shares after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period 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.
