for any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or any prospectus relating thereto
or for additional information or of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation of a
supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of
the securities covered by such Registration Statement, 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, and promptly make available to the holders
of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement any such supplement or amendment;
except that before filing with the Commission a Registration Statement or prospectus or any
amendment or supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by reference, the Company shall
furnish to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement and to the
legal counsel for any such holders, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed sufficiently
in advance of filing to provide such holders and legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to

which are made to or for the benefit of any Underwriters, to the extent applicable, shall also be

as applicable, and, if so directed by the Company, each such holder will deliver to the Company all
copies, other than permanent file copies then in such holder’s possession, of the most recent

shares each is selling in such offering.
2.4. INFORMATION. The holders of Registrable Securities shall provide such information as may
reasonably be requested by the Company, or the managing Underwriter, if any, in connection with the
preparation of the Registration Statement, including amendments and supplements thereto, in order

effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to
Section 2 and in connection with the Company’s obligation to comply with federal and applicable
state securities laws.
3. PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATION.
3.1. PIGGY-BACK RIGHTS. If at any time on or after one year from the date of the initial
business combination with respect to the Registrable Units and Registrable Shares, or, with respect
to the Registrable Founders’ Warrants and Private Placement Warrants, after such warrants become
exercisable by their terms, the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the
Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations
exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities, by the Company for its own
account or for stockholders of the Company for their account (or by the Company and by stockholders
of the Company including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.1.1), other than a Registration
Statement (i) filed in connection with an offering of securities to employees or directors of the
Company pursuant to any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) filed on Form S-4 or S-8
or any successor to such forms, (iii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the
Company’s existing stockholders, (iv) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity
securities of the Company, (v) for a dividend reinvestment plan, or (vi) solely in connection with
a merger, share capital exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, amalgamation,
subsequent liquidation, or other similar business transaction that results in all of the Company’s
shareholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or
other property in a non-capital raising bona fide business transaction, then the Company shall (x)
give written notice of such proposed filing to the holders of Registrable Securities as soon as
practicable but in no event less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date, which
notice shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the
intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or
Underwriters, if any, of the offering, and (y) offer to the holders of Registrable Securities in
such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of shares of Registrable Securities
as such holders may request in writing within five (5) days following receipt by such holder of
such notice (a “PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATION”). Subject to Section 3.2., the Company shall include in
such Registration Statement such Registrable Securities requested to be included therein within
five (5) days after the receipt by such holder of any such notice, on the same terms and conditions
as any similar securities of the Company. If at any time after giving written notice of its
intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement
filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to
register or to delay registration of such securities, the Company may, at its election, give
written notice of such determination to each holder of Registrable Securities and, (x) in the case
of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable
Securities in connection with such registration, and (y) in the case of a determination to delay
registering, shall be permitted to delay registering any Registrable Securities for the same period
as the delay in registering such other securities. If the offering pursuant to a Piggy-Back
Registration is to be an Underwritten Offering, then each holder making a request for its
Registrable Securities to be included therein must, and the Company shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed Underwritten
Offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration
on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company and other Persons selling
securities in such Underwritten Offering and to permit the sale or other disposition of such
Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All
holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities through a Piggy-Back
Registration that involves an Underwriter or Underwriters shall enter into an underwriting
agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such Piggy-Back
Registration.
3.2. REDUCTION OF OFFERING. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Piggy-Back
Registration that is to be an Underwritten Offering advises the Company and the holders of
Registrable Securities that the dollar amount or number of shares of Common Stock which the
Company desires to sell, taken together with shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which
registration has been demanded pursuant to written contractual arrangements with Persons other than
the holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, the Registrable Securities as to which
registration has been requested under this Section 3, and the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to
which registration has been requested pursuant to the written contractual piggy-back registration
rights of other stockholders of the Company, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of
shares that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price,
the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum
dollar amount or maximum number of shares, as applicable, the “MAXIMUM NUMBER OF SHARES”), then the
Company shall include in any such registration:
(a) If the registration is undertaken for the Company’s account: (A) first, the shares of
Common Stock or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without
exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of
Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the shares of Common Stock or other
securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Securities, pro rata, as to which registration has
been requested pursuant to this Section 3, the shares of Common Stock or other securities for
the account of other Persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written
contractual piggy-back registration rights with such Persons, pro rata, in each case, that can
be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and
(b) If the registration is a “demand” registration undertaken at the demand of Persons
other than the holders of Registrable Securities, (A) first, the shares of Common Stock or other
securities for the account of the demanding Persons that can be sold without exceeding the
Maximum Number of Shares; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not
been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the shares of Common Stock or other securities that
the Company desires to sell and the shares of Common Stock or other securities, if any,
comprised of Registrable Securities, pro rata, as to which registration has been requested
pursuant to this Section 3, in each case, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number
of Shares; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached
under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the shares of Common Stock or other securities for
the account of other Persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written
contractual arrangements with such Persons, pro rata, that can be sold without exceeding the
Maximum Number of Shares.
3.3. WITHDRAWAL. Any holder of Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such holder’s
request for inclusion of Registrable Securities in any Piggy-Back Registration by giving written
notice to the Company of such request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement. If all holders withdraw, or holders withdraw Registrable Securities in such amounts that
the Registrable Securities of all classes that remain covered by the relevant Registration
Statement have an estimated market value of less than $500,000, the Company shall cease all efforts
to secure registration. The Company (whether on its own determination or as the result of a
withdrawal by Persons making a demand pursuant to written contractual obligations) may withdraw a
registration statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.
Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, the Company shall pay all expenses incurred by the holders of
Registrable Securities in connection with such Piggy-Back Registration to the extent that the
Company has an obligation under Section 2.3 to pay such expenses.
4. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.
4.1. INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each
Investor and each other holder of Registrable Securities, and each of their respective officers,
employees, affiliates, directors, partners, members, and agents, and each person, if any, who
controls an Investor and each other holder of Registrable Securities (within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (each, an “INVESTOR INDEMNIFIED
PARTY”), from and against any expenses, losses, judgments, claims, damages or liabilities, whether
joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement (or allegedly untrue statement)
of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable
Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or
summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such
Registration Statement, or arising out of or based upon any omission (or alleged omission) to state
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, or any violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation
promulgated thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the
Company in connection with any such registration; and the Company shall promptly reimburse the
Investor Indemnified Party for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred by such
Investor Indemnified Party in connection with investigating and defending any such expense, loss,
judgment, claim, damage, liability or action; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company will not be
liable in any such case to the extent that any such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability
arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, or
summary prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished to the Company, in writing, by any Investor Indemnified Party expressly for
use therein. The Company also shall indemnify any Underwriter of the Registrable Securities, their
officers, affiliates, directors, partners, members and agents and each person who controls such
Underwriter on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification provided above in this
Section 4.1.
4.2. INDEMNIFICATION BY HOLDERS OF REGISTRABLE SECURITIES. Each selling holder of Registrable
Securities will, in the event that the Registration is being effected under the Securities Act
pursuant to this Agreement of any Registrable Securities held by such selling holder, indemnify and
hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers and each underwriter (if any), and
each other selling holder and each other person, if any, who controls another selling holder or
such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, judgments,
damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, insofar as such losses, claims, judgments,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue
statement (or allegedly untrue) statement of a material fact contained in the Registration
Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities
Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the
Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out
of or are based upon any omission (or alleged omission) to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, if the statement or
omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the
Company by such selling holder expressly for use therein, and shall reimburse the Company, its
directors and officers, and each other selling holder or controlling person for any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigation or defending any such
loss, claim, damage, liability or action. Each selling holder’s indemnification obligations
hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the amount of any net proceeds
actually received by such selling holder.
4.3. CONDUCT OF INDEMNIFICATION PROCEEDINGS. Promptly after receipt by any person of any
notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability or any action in respect of which indemnity may be
sought pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2, such person (the “INDEMNIFIED PARTY”) shall, if a claim in
respect thereof is to be made against any other person for indemnification hereunder, notify such
other person (the “INDEMNIFYING PARTY”) in writing of the loss, claim, judgment, damage, liability
or action; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the failure by the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying
Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which the Indemnifying Party may
have
to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party is
actually prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification with
respect to any claim or action brought against the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party
shall be entitled to participate in such claim or action, and, to the extent that it wishes,
jointly with all other Indemnifying Parties, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified
Party of its election to assume control of the defense of such claim or action, the Indemnifying
Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently
incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable
costs of investigation; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in any action in which both the Indemnified Party
and the Indemnifying Party are named as defendants, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to
employ separate counsel (but no more than one such separate counsel) to represent the Indemnified
Party and its controlling persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in
respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party,
with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by such Indemnifying Party if, based upon the
written opinion of counsel of such Indemnified Party, representation of both parties by the same
counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. No
Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to
entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in
respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been
sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such judgment or settlement includes an
unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim or
proceeding.
4.4. CONTRIBUTION.
4.4.1. If the indemnification provided for in the foregoing Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 is
unavailable to any Indemnified Party in respect of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action
referred to herein, then each such 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, claim, damage, liability or action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative fault of the Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying Parties in connection with the
actions or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, as well as
any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of any Indemnified Party and any
Indemnifying Party 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 relates to information supplied by such Indemnified Party or such Indemnifying Party and the
parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission.
4.4.2. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 4.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of
allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the
immediately preceding Section
4.4.1. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any loss, claim,
damage, liability or action referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to
include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such
Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.4, no holder of Registrable Securities shall
be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds (after
payment of any underwriting fees, discounts, commissions or taxes) actually received by such holder
from the sale of Registrable Securities which gave rise to such contribution obligation. 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.
5. UNDERWRITING AND DISTRIBUTION.
5.1. RULE 144. The Company covenants that it shall use its best efforts to file any reports
required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and shall use its best
efforts to take such further action as the holders of Registrable Securities may reasonably
request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such holders to sell Registrable
Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions
provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rules may be amended from time to time, or
any similar Rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission.
6. MISCELLANEOUS.
6.1. OTHER REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The Company represents and warrants that no person, other than
a holder of the Registrable Securities, has any right to require the Company to register any shares
of the Company’s capital stock for sale or to include shares of the Company’s capital stock in the
Registration filed by the Company for the sale of shares of capital stock for its own account or
for the account of any other person.
6.2. ASSIGNMENT; NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement and the rights, duties and
obligations of the Company hereunder may not be assigned or delegated by the Company in whole or in
part. This Agreement, and the rights, duties and obligations of the holders of Registrable
Securities hereunder, may be freely assigned or delegated by a holder of Registrable Securities in
conjunction with and to the extent of any transfer of Registrable Securities by any such holder.
This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of
each of the parties and their successors and assigns. This Agreement is not intended to confer any
rights or benefits on any persons that are not party hereto other than as expressly set forth in
Section 4 and this Section 6.2.
6.3. NOTICES. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals or other communications
(collectively, “NOTICES”) required or permitted to be given hereunder or which are given with

reputable air courier service with charges prepaid, or transmitted by hand delivery, telegram,
telex or facsimile, addressed as set forth below, or to such other address as such party shall have
specified most recently by written notice. Notice shall be deemed given on the date of service or
transmission if personally served or transmitted by telegram, telex or facsimile; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that if such service or transmission is not on a business day or is after 6PM EST, then
such notice shall be deemed given on the next business day. Notice otherwise sent as provided
herein shall be deemed given on the next business day following timely delivery of such notice to a

6.9. WAIVERS AND EXTENSIONS. Any party to this Agreement may waive any right, breach or
default which such party has the right to waive, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such waiver will not be
effective against the waiving party unless it is in writing, is signed by such party, and
specifically refers to this Agreement. Waivers may be made in advance or after the right waived has
arisen or the breach or default waived has occurred. Any waiver may be conditional. No waiver of
any breach of any agreement or provision herein contained shall be deemed a waiver of any preceding
or succeeding breach thereof nor of any other agreement or provision herein contained. No waiver or
extension of time for performance of any obligations or acts shall be deemed a waiver or extension
of the time for performance of any other obligations or acts.
6.10. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. In the event that the Company fails to observe or perform any
covenant or agreement to be observed or performed under this Agreement, the Investor or any other
holder of Registrable Securities may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by suit in equity or
action at law, whether for specific performance of any term contained in this Agreement or for an
injunction against the breach of any such term or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in
this Agreement or to enforce any other legal or equitable right, or to take any one or more of such
actions, without being required to post a bond. None of the rights, powers or remedies conferred
under this Agreement shall be mutually exclusive, and each such right, power or remedy shall be
cumulative and in addition to any other right, power or remedy, whether conferred by this Agreement
or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.
6.11. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by, interpreted under, and construed in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be
performed within the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice-of-law provisions
thereof that would compel the application of the substantive laws of any other jurisdiction.
6.12. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives the
right to a trial by jury in any action, suit, counterclaim or other proceeding (whether based on
contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of, connected with or relating to this Agreement, the
transactions contemplated hereby, or the actions of the Investor in the negotiation,
administration, performance or enforcement hereof.
