3. In connection with the foregoing, the Company and the Investors, the Other Investors and the Founders are entering into a Stockholders Agreement dated on or about the date hereof (the “Stockholders Agreement”).

4. The parties believe that it is in the best interests of the Company and the other parties hereto to set forth their agreements on certain matters.

30748034_8

AGREEMENT

Therefore, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:


1.	EFFECTIVENESS; DEFINITIONS.

1.1. Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering (referred to herein as the “Closing”)).

1.2. Definitions. Certain terms are used in this Agreement as specifically defined herein. These definitions are set forth or referred to in Section 7 hereof.


2.	HOLDER LOCK‑UP.

In connection with each underwritten Public Offering each participating Holder hereby agrees, if requested, to execute and deliver, a lock‑up agreement with the underwriter(s) of such Public Offering (the “Principal Lock‑Up Agreement”) restricting such Holder’s right to (i) Transfer any Shares or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another any of the economic consequences of ownership of Shares, in each case to the extent that such restrictions are agreed to (A) in the case of a demand registration under Section 3.1 hereof, by Investors holding a majority of the Shares proposed to be offered and (B) otherwise, by the holders of a majority of the Shares participating in the Public Offering; provided, however, that no Holder shall be required by this Section 2 to be bound by a lock‑up agreement covering a period of greater than 90 days following the date of the final prospectus relating to such underwritten Public Offering plus such additional period of up to 17 days as may be required by the underwriters to satisfy FINRA regulations and permit the managing underwriters’ analysts to publish research updates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such lock‑up agreement shall not apply to (i) transactions relating to shares of Common Stock or other securities acquired in (A) open market transactions or block purchases or (B) a Public Offering, (ii) Transfers to Permitted Transferees of such Holder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (iii) conversions of shares of Common Stock into other classes of Common Stock without change of holder and (iv) Transfers by any Holder or such Holder’s Permitted Transferees in connection with a bona fide gift to any Charitable Organization.

3.REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The Company will perform and comply with, and cause each of its subsidiaries to perform and comply with, such of the following provisions as are applicable to it. Each Holder will perform and comply with such of the following provisions as are applicable to such Holder.

3.1. Demand Registration Rights.

3.1.1. Demand Registration Rights. Any Investors, Other Investors or Founders that, collectively, beneficially hold at least 5% of the outstanding Shares (the “Initiating Holders”), by notice to the Company specifying the intended method or methods of disposition, may request that the Company effect the registration under the Securities Act for a Public Offering of all or a specified part of the Registrable Securities held by such Initiating Holders.

- 2 -

30748034_8

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Initiating Holder may request a registration unless the value of Registrable Securities that the Initiating Holders propose to sell in such Public Offering on Form S-1 (or any other registration form that contains substantially the same information required by such form) is at least twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000), or, in the case of any other registration on Form S-3, fifteen million dollars ($15,000,000) or, in either case, such lower amount as agreed by the Board. The Company will then use its best efforts to (i) effect the registration under the Securities Act (including by means of a shelf registration pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act if so requested by a majority of the Initiating Holders and if the Company is then eligible to use such registration) of the Registrable Securities that the Company has been requested to register by such Initiating Holders together with all other Registrable Securities that the Company has been requested to register pursuant to Section 3.2 by other Holders, all to the extent required to permit the disposition of the Registrable Securities that the Company has been so requested to register, and (ii) if requested by an Initiating Holder, obtain acceleration of the effective date of the registration statement relating to such registration; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any such registration pursuant to this Section 3.1.1:

(a) prior to the consummation of the first underwritten Public Offering following the Initial Public Offering if the Initiating Holders are exclusively Other Investors and/or Founders;

(b) during the effectiveness of any Principal Lock‑Up Agreement entered into in connection with any registration statement pertaining to an underwritten public offering of securities of the Company for its own account (other than a Rule 145 Transaction, or a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans);

(c) if a registration statement requested under this Section 3.1.1 became effective within the preceding 90 days (unless otherwise consented to by the Board).

3.1.2. Shelf Takedowns. At any time during which the Company has effective a shelf registration pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act with respect to such Holder’s Shares, any Holder (a “Shelf Takedown Holder”), by notice to the Company specifying the intended method or methods of disposition, may request that the Company effect a Public Offering, including an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, of all or a specified part of the Registrable Securities held by such Shelf Takedown Holder that are covered by such registration statement; provided, however, that (a) the value of Registrable Securities that the Shelf Takedown Holder proposes to sell in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown is at least twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000) or fifteen million dollars ($15,000,000) in the case of a registration statement that does not include substantially more information than is required to included on Form S-3 or, in either case, such lower amount as agreed to by the Board and (b) with respect to any Underwritten Shelf Takedown, such notice is also given to each other Holder with Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, or to all Holders if such registration statement is undesignated (each a “Potential Takedown Participant”), at least five business days prior to such proposed Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Any

- 3 -

30748034_8

Potential Takedown Participant may, by written response delivered to the Company within one business day after the date of delivery of such notice, request that all or a specified part of such Holder’s Registrable Securities be included in any such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, subject to the underwriters’ cutback set forth in Section 3.3.1 and the procedures set forth in 3.2.1(a) (without giving effect to the time periods specified therein). The Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any such Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to this Section 3.1.2 if an Underwritten Shelf Takedown requested under this Section 3.1.2 was consummated within the preceding 90 days (unless otherwise consented to by the Board).

3.1.3. Form. Except as otherwise provided above or required by law, each registration requested pursuant to Section 3.1.1 shall be effected by the filing of a registration statement on Form S‑3 (or any other form which includes substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement on such form as currently constituted); provided, that if any registration requested pursuant to this Section 3.1 is proposed to be effected on Form S‑3 (or any successor or similar short‑form registration statement) and is in connection with an underwritten offering, and if the managing underwriter shall advise the Company in writing that, in its opinion, it is of material importance to the success of such proposed offering to file a registration statement on Form S‑1 (or any successor or similar registration statement), or to include in such registration statement information not required to be included pursuant to Form S‑3 (or any successor or similar short‑form registration statement), then the Company will file a registration statement on Form S‑1 or supplement Form S‑3 (or any successor or similar short‑form registration statement) as reasonably requested by such managing underwriter.

3.1.4. Payment of Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with registrations, including shelf takedowns, of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 3.1, including all reasonable expenses (other than fees and disbursements of counsel that do not constitute Registration Expenses) that any Holder incurs in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 3.1.

3.1.5. Additional Procedures. In the case of a registration pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof, whenever an Initiating Holder is entitled to request and so requests that such registration shall be effected pursuant to an underwritten offering, the Company shall include such information in any written notice to Holders required by Section 3.2. In such event, the right of any Holder to have securities owned by such Holder included in such registration shall be conditioned upon the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the Initiating Holder and such Holder). If requested by the Initiating Holder or Shelf Takedown Holder, the Company together with the Holders proposing to distribute their securities through the underwriting will enter into an underwriting agreement with the underwriters for such offering containing such representations and warranties by the Company and such Holders and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions, including

- 4 -

30748034_8

customary indemnity and contribution provisions (subject, in each case, to the limitations on such liabilities set forth in this Agreement).

3.1.6. Suspension of Registration. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a registration statement, including a shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, in respect of a registration pursuant to this Section 3.1 at any time would require the Company to make a public disclosure of material non‑public information, which disclosure in the good faith judgment of the Board (after consultation with external legal counsel) (i) would be required to be made in any registration statement so that such registration statement would not be materially misleading, (ii) would not be required to be made at such time but for the filing, effectiveness or continued use of such registration statement and (iii) would have a material adverse effect on the Company or its business, or on the Company’s ability to effect a material proposed acquisition, disposition, financing, reorganization, recapitalization or similar transaction, then the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders participating in such registration, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such registration statement; provided, that the Company shall not be permitted to do so (i) for a period exceeding 30 days on any one occasion or (ii) for an aggregate period exceeding 60 days in any 12-month period. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, such Holders agree to suspend, promptly upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of any prospectus relating to such registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities. The Company shall promptly notify such Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 3.1.6. The Company agrees that, in the event it exercises its rights under this Section 3.1.6, it shall, within 30 days following such Holders’ receipt of the notice of suspension, update the suspended registration statement as may be necessary to permit the Holders to resume use thereof in connection with the offer and sale of their Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law.

3.2. Piggyback Registration Rights.

3.2.1. Piggyback Registration.

(a) General. Each time the Company proposes to register any shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act on a form which would permit registration of Registrable Securities for sale to the public, for its own account and/or for the account of any other Person (pursuant to Section 3.1 or otherwise) for sale in a Public Offering, the Company will give notice to all Holders of its intention to do so. Any Holder may, by written response delivered to the Company within 20 days after the date of delivery of such notice, request that all or a specified part of such Holder’s Registrable Securities be included in such registration. A Holder may request in any such response that varying numbers of such Holder’s Registrable Securities be included in the registration based on varying prices at which such Registrable Securities are to be sold in the registered offering. The Company thereupon will use its best efforts to cause to be included in such registration under the Securities Act all Registrable Securities that the

- 5 -

30748034_8

Company has been so requested to register by such Holders, to the extent required to permit the disposition (in accordance with the methods to be used by the Company or, pursuant to Section 3.1, other Holders in such Public Offering) of the Registrable Securities to be so registered; provided that (i) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities, the Company shall determine for any reason not to proceed with the proposed registration of the securities to be sold by it, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to each Holder and, thereupon, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses in connection therewith), and (ii) if such registration involves an underwritten offering, all Holders requesting to be included in the Company’s registration must sell their Registrable Securities to the underwriters selected by the Company on the same terms and conditions as apply to the Company (with such differences as may be customary or appropriate in combined primary and secondary offerings, and, in any event, without providing for indemnification or contribution obligations in excess of what is required by Section 3.4) or, in the case of a registration initiated pursuant to Section 3.1.1, the Principal Participating Holders. No registration of Registrable Securities effected under this Section 3.2 shall relieve the Company of any of its obligations to effect registrations of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof.

(b) Excluded Transactions. The Company shall not be obligated to effect any registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 3.2 or give any notice to Holders of the Company’s intent to register Registrable Securities, in each case incidental to the registration of any of its securities in connection with:

(i) Any Public Offering relating to employee benefit plans or dividend reinvestment plans; or

(ii) Any Public Offering relating to the acquisition or merger after the date hereof by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of or with any other businesses except to the extent such Public Offering is for the sale of securities for cash.

3.2.2. Payment of Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with registrations of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 3.2 including all reasonable expenses (other than fees and disbursements of counsel that do not constitute Registration Expenses) that any Holder incurs in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 3.2.

3.2.3. Additional Procedures. Holders participating in any Public Offering pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall take all such actions and execute all such documents and instruments that are reasonably requested by the Company to effect the sale of their Registrable Securities in such Public Offering, including being parties to the underwriting agreement entered into by the Company and any other selling shareholders in connection therewith and being liable in respect of the representations

- 6 -

30748034_8

and warranties and the other agreements (including customary selling stockholder representations, warranties, indemnifications and “lock‑up” agreements) for the benefit of the underwriters contained therein; provided, however, that (i) with respect to individual representations, warranties, indemnities and agreements of sellers of Registrable Securities in such Public Offering, the aggregate amount of such liability shall not exceed any such Holder’s net proceeds from such offering, (ii) to the extent selling stockholders give further representations, warranties and indemnities, then with respect to all other representations, warranties and indemnities of sellers of Registrable Securities in such Public Offering, the aggregate amount of such liability shall not exceed the lesser of (A) any such Holder’s pro rata portion of any such liability, in accordance with such Holder’s portion of the total number of Registrable Securities included in the offering, and (B) any such Holder’s net proceeds from such offering and (iii) the aggregate liability with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) shall not exceed such holder’s net proceeds from such offering.

3.3. Certain Other Provisions.

3.3.1. Underwriter’s Cutback. In connection with any registration of shares, including any Underwritten Shelf Takedown, the underwriter may determine that marketing factors (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price) require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Section 3 and subject to the terms of this Section 3.3.1, the underwriter may limit the number of shares which would otherwise be included in such registration or Underwritten Shelf Takedown by excluding any or all Registrable Securities from such registration or Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Upon receipt of notice from the underwriter of the need to reduce the number of shares to be included in the registration or Underwritten Shelf Takedown, the Company shall advise all holders of the Company’s securities that would otherwise be registered and underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares of such securities, including Registrable Securities, that may be included in the registration or Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall be allocated in the following manner: shares, other than Registrable Securities, requested to be included in such registration or Underwritten Shelf Takedown by other shareholders shall be excluded unless the Company, with the consent of the parties required to approve any amendment or waiver of this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.2, has granted registration rights which are to be treated on an equal basis with Registrable Securities for the purpose of the exercise of the underwriter cutback (such shares afforded such equal treatment being “Parity Shares”); and, if a limitation on the number of shares is still required, the number of Registrable Securities, Parity Shares and other shares of Common Stock that may be included in such registration or Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall be allocated, as nearly as practicable, as follows:

(a) in the case of a registration initiated by the Company, the Company will have first priority;

(b) (i) in the case of any shares not allocated pursuant to clause (a) above, if any, and (ii) in the case of a registration or Underwritten Shelf Takedown initiated by any holder, there shall be first allocated to each such holder requesting

- 7 -

30748034_8

that its Registrable Securities or Parity Shares be registered in such registration or sold in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown a number of such shares to be included in such registration or such shelf takedown equal to the lesser of (i) the number of such shares requested to be registered or sold by such holder, and (ii) a number of such shares equal to such holder’s Pro Rata Portion;

(c) the balance, if any, not allocated pursuant to clause above shall be allocated to those holders requesting that their Registrable Securities or Parity Shares be registered in such registration or sold in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown that requested to register or sell a number of such shares in excess of such holder’s Pro Rata Portion pro rata to each such holder based upon the number of Registrable Securities and Parity Shares held by such holder, or in such other manner as the holders requesting that their Registrable Securities or Parity Shares be registered in such registration or sold in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown may otherwise agree; and

(d) the balance, if any, not allocated pursuant to clause above shall, in the case of a registration or Underwritten Shelf Takedown initiated by any holder, first be allocated to the Company, and then and in all other cases to shares, other than Registrable Securities and Parity Shares, requested to be included in such registration or sold in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown by other stockholders.

For purposes of any underwriter cutback, all Registrable Securities held by any Holder shall also include any Registrable Securities held by the partners, retired partners, shareholders or Affiliates of such Holder, or the estates and family members of any such Holder or such partners and retired partners, any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing Persons and, at the election of such Holder or such partners, retired partners, trusts or Affiliates, any Charitable Organization to which any of the foregoing shall have contributed Common Stock prior to the execution of the underwriting agreement in connection with such underwritten offering, and such Holder and other Persons shall be deemed to be a single selling Holder, and any pro rata reduction with respect to such selling Holder shall be based upon the aggregate amount of Common Stock owned by all entities and individuals included with such selling Holder, as defined in this sentence. No securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter’s marketing limitation shall be included in such registration. Upon delivery of a written request pursuant to Section 3.1.1, 3.1.2 or 3.2.1(a) that Registrable Securities be sold in an underwritten offering, the Holder thereof may not thereafter elect to withdraw therefrom without the written consent of the Principal Participating Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if the managing underwriter of any underwritten offering shall advise the Holders participating in the offering that the Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement cannot be sold in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Initiating Holder or Shelf Takedown Holder, then the Initiating Holder or Shelf Takedown Holder shall have the right to withdraw from such underwritten offering and, upon any such withdrawal, the Principal Participating Holders remaining after such withdrawal shall have the right to notify the Company that they have determined that the registration statement be abandoned or withdrawn, in which event the Company shall abandon or withdraw such registration statement, (ii) if the price to the public at which the Registrable Securities are proposed to be sold will be less than 90% of the average

- 8 -

30748034_8

closing price of the Common Stock during the 10 trading days preceding the date on which notice of such offering was given pursuant to Section 3.2.1(a) , then any Holder participating in such underwritten offering may elect to withdraw from such offering by written notice to the Company and (iii) nothing in this Section 3.3.1 shall be deemed to limit a Holder’s ability pursuant to Section 3.2.1(a) to request the registration and sale of varying numbers of Registrable Securities based on varying prices at which such Registrable Securities are to be sold in the offering. The Company may, but shall not be required to, extend a similar withdrawal right to other Holders or holders of Parity Shares.

3.3.2. Registration Procedures. If, and in each case when, the Company is required to effect a registration, including a shelf takedown, of any Registrable Securities as provided in this Section 3, the Company shall promptly, if applicable:

(a) prepare and, in any event within 45 days (30 days in the case of a Form S‑3 registration) after the end of the period under Section 3.2.1(a) within which a piggyback request for registration may be given to the Company, file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective within 90 days of the initial filing;

(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement have been sold and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement; provided, that before filing a registration statement or prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto in accordance with Section 3.1 or 3.2, the Company will furnish to counsel selected pursuant to Section 3.3.3 hereof copies of all documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review of such counsel;

(c) furnish to each seller of such Registrable Securities such number of copies of such registration statement and of each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits filed therewith), such number of copies of the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus and summary prospectus), in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as such seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities by such seller;

(d) use its best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities covered by such registration in such jurisdictions as each seller shall reasonably request, and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably

- 9 -

30748034_8

necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller, except that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where, but for the requirements of this clause (d) it would not be obligated to be so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;

(e) notify each seller of any such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the Company’s becoming aware that 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, at the request of any such seller, prepare and furnish to such seller a reasonable number of copies of an amended or supplemental prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not include 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 in the light of the circumstances then existing;

(f) otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable (but not more than 15 months) after the effective date of the registration statement, an earnings statement which shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act;

(g) (i) if such Registrable Securities are Common Stock (including Common Stock issuable upon conversion, exchange or exercise of another security), use its best efforts to list such Registrable Securities on any securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed if such Registrable Securities are not already so listed, and (ii) use its best efforts to provide a transfer agent and registrar for such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement not later than the effective date of such registration statement;

(h) enter into such customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form), which may include indemnification provisions in favor of underwriters and other Persons in addition to the provisions of Section 3.4 hereof, and take such other actions as the Principal Participating Holders or the underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;

(i) obtain a “cold comfort” letter or letters from the Company’s independent public accountants in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered by “cold comfort” letters as the Principal Participating Holders shall reasonably request;

- 10 -

30748034_8

The indemnities of the Company and of its subsidiaries contained in this Section 3.4.1 shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Covered Person, and shall survive any transfer of securities or any termination of this Agreement.

3.4.2. Indemnities to the Company. Subject to Section 3.4.4, the Company and any of its subsidiaries may require, as a condition to including any securities in any registration statement filed pursuant to this Section 3, that the Company and any of its subsidiaries shall have received an undertaking satisfactory to it from the prospective seller of such securities, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and any of its subsidiaries, each director of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, each officer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries who shall sign such registration statement and each other Person (other than such seller), if any, who controls the Company and any of its subsidiaries within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each other prospective seller of such securities with respect to any statement in or omission from such registration statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus included therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any other disclosure document (including reports and other documents filed under the Exchange Act or any document incorporated therein) or other document or report, if such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or any of its subsidiaries through an instrument executed by such seller specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, Issuer FWP, amendment or supplement, incorporated document or other document or report.

3.4.3. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 3.4.1 or 3.4.2 hereof is unavailable to a party that would have been entitled to indemnification pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.4 (an “Indemnitee”) in respect of any Losses referred to therein, then each party that would have been an indemnifying party thereunder shall, subject to Section 3.4.4, and in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnitee, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such indemnifying party on the one hand and such Indemnitee on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or such Indemnitee and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.4.3 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 preceding sentence. The amount paid or payable by a contributing party as a result of the Losses referred to above in this Section 3.4.3 shall include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. 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.

3.4.4. Limitation on Liability of Holders of Registrable Securities. The liability of each Holder in respect of any indemnification or contribution obligation of such Holder arising under this Section 3.4 shall not in any event exceed an amount equal to the net proceeds to such Holder (after deduction of all underwriters’ discounts and commissions) from the disposition of the Registrable Securities disposed of by such Holder pursuant to such registration.

3.4.5. Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnitee of written notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be made pursuant to this Section 3.4, such Indemnitee will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action or proceeding; provided, that the failure of the Indemnitee to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Section 3.4, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action or proceeding is brought against an Indemnitee, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense thereof (at its expense), jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified to the extent that they may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such Indemnitee of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation, and shall have no liability for any settlement made by the Indemnitee without the consent of the indemnifying

- 15 -

30748034_8

party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if in such Indemnitee’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such Indemnitee and the indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such action or proceeding or the indemnifying party does not assume the defense of any such action or proceeding within a reasonable time after notice of commencement, the Indemnitee shall have the right to assume or continue its own defense and the indemnifying party shall be liable for any reasonable expenses therefor, but in no event will bear the expenses for more than one firm of counsel for all Indemnitees in each jurisdiction who shall be approved by the Principal Participating Holders in the registration in respect of which such indemnification is sought. No indemnifying party will settle any action or proceeding or consent to the entry of any judgment without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, unless such settlement or judgment (i) includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff of a release to such Indemnitee from all liability in respect of such action or proceeding, and (ii) does not involve the imposition of equitable remedies or the imposition of any obligations on such Indemnitee, and does not otherwise adversely affect such Indemnitee, other than as a result of the imposition of financial obligations for which such Indemnitee will be indemnified hereunder.

3.5. Permitted Registration Rights Assignees.

3.5.1. Registration Rights. The rights of a Holder to cause the Company to register its Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2 may be assigned (but only with all related obligations as set forth below) in a Transfer effected in accordance with the terms of the Stockholders Agreement and this Agreement to: (a) a Charitable Organization, (b) a Permitted Transferee or (c) any other transferee that, together with its Affiliates, in the case of this clause (c) acquires shares of Registrable Securities either (i) for consideration of at least $15,000,000 or (ii) having a then fair market value (determined in good faith by the Board) of at least $15,000,000 (the transferees described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) each a “Permitted Registration Rights Assignee”). Without prejudice to any other or similar conditions imposed hereunder, with respect to any such Transfer, no assignment permitted under the terms of this Section 3.5.1 shall be effective unless the Permitted Registration Rights Assignee, if not a Stockholder, has delivered to the Company a written acknowledgment and agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such Registrable Securities in respect of which such assignment is made shall be deemed Shares and shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement relating to Shares, and that such Permitted Registration Rights Assignee shall be bound by, and shall be an Other Holder party to, this Agreement and the holder of Shares hereunder. A transferee to whom rights are transferred pursuant to this Section 3.5.1 may not again transfer such rights to any Person, other than as provided in this Section 3.5.1. A Permitted Transferee to whom rights are transferred pursuant to this Section 3.5.1 may not again transfer such rights to any other Permitted Transferee, other than as provided in this Section 3.5.1. An Affiliate or Affiliated Fund of an Investor to whom rights are assigned pursuant to this Section 3.5.1 in connection with a Transfer of Shares by such Investor will be deemed for all purposes under this Agreement to have been the beneficial Holder at Closing of the proportionate number of Shares that such Affiliate or Affiliated Fund held indirectly

Each such Amendment shall be binding upon each party hereto and each holder of Shares subject hereto. In addition, each party hereto and each holder of Shares subject hereto may waive any right hereunder by an instrument in writing signed by such party or holder.
