(ii) By election of the Company if any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.3 with respect to the First Closing or in Section 6.4 with respect to the Second Closing shall have become incapable of fulfillment, and shall not have been waived by the Company or the Company and the Investor, as the case may be;

(iii) By election of the Investor if any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 with respect to the First Closing or in Section 6.2 with respect to the Second Closing shall have become incapable of fulfillment, and shall not have been waived by the Investor or the Company and the Investor, as the case may be; or

(b) Nothing in this Section 6.5 shall be deemed to release any party hereto from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

7.2 No Conflicting Agreements. The Company will not take any action, enter into any agreement or make any commitment that would conflict or interfere in any material respect with the Company’s obligations to the Investor under the Transaction Documents.

7.3 Compliance with Laws. The Company will comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders and decrees of all governmental authorities, except for any noncompliance that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

8. Survival and Indemnification.

8.1 Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Second Closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for a period of one (1) year after the Second Closing Date.

8.2 Indemnification.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Investor and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorney fees and disbursements and other reasonable expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim or proceeding, pending or threatened, and the costs of enforcement hereof) (collectively, “Losses”) to which such Person may become subject as a result of any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be performed on the part of the Company under the Transaction Documents.

(b) The Investor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any and all Losses to which such Person may become subject as a result of any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be performed on the part of the Investor under the Transaction Documents.

8.3 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any Person (the “Indemnified Person”) of notice of any demand, claim or circumstances which would or might give rise to a claim or the commencement of any action, Proceeding or investigation in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8.2, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing and the Indemnifying Person shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, and shall assume the payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified Person so to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve the Indemnifying Person of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Person is materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. In any such Proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) in the reasonable judgment of counsel to the Indemnified Person, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with such consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability (to the extent stated above) by reason of such settlement or judgment. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Indemnifying Person shall not effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such Proceeding.

8.4 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) No party hereto will have any liability for indemnification under this Section 8 in excess of the total combined value of the First Purchase Price and the Second Purchase Price.

(b) NO INDEMNIFYING PERSON SHALL BE LIABLE FOR PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, LOST PROFITS OR DAMAGES OTHER THAN ACTUAL DAMAGES SUFFERED BY ANY INDEMNIFIED PERSON WITH RESPECT TO ANY TERM OR THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OTHER LAW OR OTHERWISE AND WHETHER OR NOT ARISING FROM THE OTHER PERSON’S OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES’ SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER FAULT; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THIS WAIVER WILL NOT LIMIT ANY LIABILITY OF AN INDEMNIFYING PERSON TO INDEMNIFY ANY INDEMNIFIED PERSON FOR ANY LOSS ARISING FROM DAMAGES OF ANY KIND THAT THE INDEMNIFIED PERSON IS REQUIRED TO PAY TO ANY THIRD PARTY, INCLUDING ANY GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY.

9. Miscellaneous.

9.1 Successors and Assigns.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.4 with respect to the Second Closing shall have become incapable of fulfillment due to any action or inaction of the Investor, the Company may assign its rights to receive payment of the Second Purchase Price in whole or in part to an Affiliate and such Affiliate shall be an express beneficiary of this Agreement.

9.2 Execution and Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other party hereto, it being understood that both parties hereto need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by email delivery of a portable document format, or “.pdf” data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party hereto executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

Article II
REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 2.01 Registration.

(a) (i) Deadline to Go Effective. As soon as practicable following the Second Closing, but in any event within 60 days of the Second Closing Date, CEI shall prepare and file a registration statement under the Securities Act to permit the resale of the Registrable Securities from time to time, including as permitted by Rule 415 with respect to all of the Registrable Securities (the “Registration Statement”). CEI shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective no later than 135 days following the Second Closing Date. A Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.01 shall be on Form S-3 (except if CEI is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, in which case such registration shall be on another appropriate form in accordance herewith). CEI will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.01 to be continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earlier of (i) the date as of which all such Registrable Securities are sold by PIC or (ii) the date when such Registrable Securities become eligible for resale without restriction (including, but not limited to, volume limitations) under Rule 144(k) (or any similar provision then in force) under the Securities Act (the “Effectiveness Period”). The Registration Statement when declared effective (including the documents incorporated therein by reference) shall comply as to form with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange 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 provided in Section 2.01(d) of this Agreement, CEI shall be required to file and maintain the effectiveness of as many registration statements as are necessary to register all of the Registrable Securities.

(ii) Liquidated Damages. If any Consideration Shares are not covered by the Registration Statement contemplated by Section 2.01(a) of this Agreement (a “Registration Default”) within two years of the Second Closing Date (the “Liquidated Damages Date”), then PIC shall be entitled to a payment with respect to the Consideration Shares that are not covered by such Registration Statement, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, of 0.25% of the Liquidated Damages Multiplier for each period of 30 consecutive days following the Liquidated Damages Date during which a Registration Default continues (the “Liquidated Damages”); provided, however, that the aggregate amount of Liquidated Damages payable by CEI to PIC under this Agreement shall in no event exceed $10,000,000. The Liquidated Damages payable pursuant to this Section 2.1(a)(ii) shall be payable within ten (10) Business Days of the end of each such 30-day period. Any Liquidated Damages shall be paid at PIC’s election: (i) in cash; or (ii) in shares of additional Common Stock. Upon any issuance of Common Stock as Liquidated Damages, CEI shall promptly prepare and file an amendment to the Registration Statement prior to its effectiveness adding the shares of such Common Stock to the Registration Statement as additional Registrable Securities. The determination of the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued as Liquidated Damages shall be based on a valuation price of $0.7164 per share of Common Stock. As soon as practicable following the date that the Registration Statement becomes effective, but in any event within two Business Days of such date, CEI shall provide the Holders with written notice of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

(b) Delay Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, CEI may, upon written notice to any Selling Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement, suspend such Selling Holder’s use of any prospectus which is a part of the Registration Statement (in which event the Selling Holder shall discontinue sales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, but such Selling Holder may settle any such sales of Registrable Securities) if (i) CEI is pursuing an acquisition, merger, reorganization, disposition or other similar transaction and CEI determines in good faith that CEI’s ability to pursue or consummate such a transaction would be materially adversely affected by any required disclosure of such transaction in the Registration Statement or (ii) CEI has experienced some other material non-public event the disclosure of which at such time, in the good faith judgment of CEI, would materially adversely affect CEI; provided, however, in no event shall a Holder be suspended for a period that exceeds an aggregate of 30 days in any 90- day period or 90 days in any 365-day period. Upon disclosure of such information or the termination of the condition described above, CEI shall provide prompt notice to the Selling Holders whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement, shall promptly terminate any suspension of sales it has put into effect and shall take such other actions to permit registered sales of Registrable Securities as contemplated in this Agreement.

(c) Additional Rights to Liquidated Damages. If (i) the Holders are prohibited from selling their Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement as a result of a suspension pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of this Agreement in excess of the periods permitted therein or (ii) the Registration Statement is filed and declared effective but, during the Effectiveness Period, shall thereafter cease to be effective or fail to be usable for its intended purpose without being succeeded by a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, a supplement to the prospectus or a report filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, then, until the suspension is lifted or a post-effective amendment, supplement or report is filed with the Commission, but not including any day on which a suspension is lifted or such amendment, supplement or report is filed and declared effective, if applicable, CEI shall owe the Holders an amount equal to the Liquidated Damages for each period of 30 consecutive days during which the suspension continues beyond the (x) period permitted under Section 2.01(b) of this Agreement or (y) day after the Registration Statement ceased to be effective or failed to be useable for its intended purposes, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty; provided, however, and subject to Section 2.01(a)(ii) of this Agreement, CEI shall not be required to pay Liquidated Damages under this Section 2.01(c) with respect to Consideration Shares not covered by a Registration Statement at the date a suspension commences. For the purposes of this Section 2.01(c), a suspension shall be deemed lifted on the date that notice that the suspension has been lifted is delivered to the Holders pursuant to Section 3.01 of this Agreement.

(d) Claw-Back of Registrable Securities. CEI may exclude Registrable Securities from the Registration Statement if required by the Commission in order for the Commission to declare the Registration Statement effective; provided, however, that CEI will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file a subsequent Registration Statement that includes the Registrable Securities excluded from the initial Registration Statement at such time as it may do so in accordance with the Securities Act as interpreted by the Commission, but in any event within six months of the effective date of the preceding Registration Statement, and CEI will use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such Registration Statement declared effective within a reasonable period of time after such filing. CEI shall not be required to pay any Liquidated Damages in accordance with Section 2.01(a)(ii) of this Agreement for any Registrable Securities that are not registered pursuant to this Section 2.02(d). The formula described in Section 2.02(b) shall determine the number of Registrable Securities that are excluded under this Section 2.01(c) vis-à-vis the number of shares of Common Stock of Allied that are excluded under any registration statement, except that the maximum number of shares of Common Stock to be registered under any registration statement shall be determined by the Commission’s requirements instead of the determination by a Managing Underwriter or Underwriters.

(e) No Obligation For Primary Offering By Holders. If the Commission deems the registration of any Registrable Securities to be a primary offering by CEI or the Holders, and the Commission prohibits the use of Rule 415 to sell Registrable Securities on a delayed or continuous basis, then PIC shall not be obligated to commit to any such primary offering to allow the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission.

Section 2.02 Piggyback Rights.

(a) Participation. If at any time CEI proposes to file (i) a prospectus supplement to an effective shelf registration statement, other than the Registration Statement contemplated by Section 2.01 of this Agreement, or (ii) a registration statement, other than a shelf registration statement, in either case, for the sale of Common Stock in an Underwritten Offering for its own account, then as soon as practicable but not less than three Business Days prior to the filing of (x) any preliminary prospectus supplement relating to such Underwritten Offering pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, (y) the prospectus supplement relating to such Underwritten Offering pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act (if no preliminary prospectus supplement is used) or (z) such registration statement, as the case may be, then CEI shall give notice (including, but not limited to, notification by electronic mail) of such proposed Underwritten Offering to the Holders and such notice shall offer the Holders the opportunity to include in such Underwritten Offering such number of Registrable Securities (the “Included Registrable Securities”) as each such Holder may request in writing; provided, however, that if CEI has been advised by the Managing Underwriter that the inclusion of Registrable Securities for sale for the benefit of the Holders will have a material adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the Common Stock in the Underwritten Offering, then the amount of Registrable Securities to be offered for the account of Holders shall be determined based on the provisions of Section 2.02(b) of this Agreement. The notice required to be provided in this Section 2.02(a) to Holders shall be provided on a Business Day pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof and receipt of such notice shall be confirmed by such Holder. Each such Holder shall then have three Business Days after receiving such notice to request inclusion of Registrable Securities in the Underwritten Offering, except that such Holder shall have one Business Day after such Holder confirms receipt of the notice to request inclusion of Registrable Securities in the Underwritten Offering in the case of a “bought deal”, “registered direct offering” or “overnight transaction” where no preliminary prospectus is used. If no request for inclusion from a Holder is received within the specified time, such Holder shall have no further right to participate in such Underwritten Offering. If, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to undertake an Underwritten Offering and prior to the closing of such Underwritten Offering, CEI shall determine for any reason not to undertake or to delay such Underwritten Offering, CEI may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to the Selling Holders and, (x) in the case of a determination not to undertake such Underwritten Offering, shall be relieved of its obligation to sell any Included Registrable Securities in connection with such terminated Underwritten Offering, and (y) in the case of a determination to delay such Underwritten Offering, shall be permitted to delay offering any Included Registrable Securities for the same period as the delay in the Underwritten Offering. Any Selling Holder shall have the right to withdraw such Selling Holder’s request for inclusion of such Selling Holder’s Registrable Securities in such offering by giving written notice to CEI of such withdrawal up to and including the time of pricing of such offering. No Holder shall be entitiled to participate in any such Underwritten Offering under this Section 2.02(a) unless such Holder (together with any Affiliate of such Holder) participating therein held at least $10,000,000 of Common Stock as of the Closing Date, based on a valuation price of $0.7164 per share of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Holder may deliver written notice (an “Opt Out Notice”) to CEI requesting that such Holder not receive notice from CEI of any proposed Underwritten Offering; provided, however, that such Holder may later revoke any such notice.

(b) Priority of Rights. If the Managing Underwriter or Underwriters of any proposed Underwritten Offering of Common Stock included in an Underwritten Offering involving Included Registrable Securities advises CEI, or CEI reasonably determines, that the total amount of Common Stock that the Selling Holders and any other Persons intend to include in such offering exceeds the number that can be sold in such offering without being likely to have a material adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the Common Stock offered or the market for the Common Stock, then the Common Stock to be included in such Underwritten Offering shall include the number of Registrable Securities that such Managing Underwriter or Underwriters advises CEI, or CEI reasonably determines, can be sold without having such adverse effect, with such number to be allocated (i) first, to CEI and (ii) second, to the Selling Holders and other Persons who have requested participation in such Underwritten Offering. The pro rata allocations for each such Selling Holder or other Person shall be the product of (a) (i) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that the Managing Underwriter or Underwriters have determined can be sold in such Underwritten Offering under clause (ii) of the preceding sentence multiplied by (b) the fraction derived by dividing (x) the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Selling Holder following the Second Closing by (y) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock owned following the Second Closing Date by all Selling Holders and other Persons participating in the Underwritten Offering. All participating Selling Holders shall have the opportunity to share pro rata that portion of such priority allocable to any Selling Holder(s) not so participating.

Section 2.03 Underwritten Offering.

(a) Request for Underwritten Offering. Any one or more Holders that collectively hold greater than $20,000,000 of Registrable Securities, based on a valuation price of $0.7164 per share of Common Stock, may deliver written notice to CEI that such Holders wish to dispose of an aggregate of at least $20,000,000 of Registrable Securities, based on a valuation price of $0.7164 per share of Common Stock, in an Underwritten Offering. Upon receipt of any such written request, CEI shall retain underwriters reasonably acceptable to the Holders, effect such sale through an Underwritten Offering, including entering into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Managing Underwriter or Underwriters, which shall include, among other provisions, indemnities to the effect and to the extent provided in Section 2.08, and take all reasonable actions as are requested by the Managing Underwriter or Underwriters to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities, including management’s participation in any roadshow or similar marketing effort on behalf of any such Holder. Holders requesting an Underwritten Offering shall be responsible for all Selling Expenses. The parties acknowledge that CEI shall not be required to prepay any Selling Expenses on behalf of the requesting Holders and may discontinue any actions required to be taken hereby and shall not incur any penalty hereunder for such discontinuation if such Selling Expenses are not promptly paid when due by the requesting Holders. The parties further agree that CEI shall be entitled to obtain written agreement from the requesting Holders to pay any and all such Selling Expenses from the proceeds of the sales of such securities (i.e., from the flow of funds at the closing of such offering) prior to initiating any such Underwritten Offering.

(b) General Procedures. In connection with any Underwritten Offering under this Agreement or the Allied Registration Rights Agreement, CEI shall be entitled to select the Managing Underwriter or Underwriters with the consent of the Person or Persons holding a majority of the shares of Common Stock of all Holders, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and if Allied is also registering shares of Common Stock in such Underwritten Offering, with the consent of Allied, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. In connection with an Underwritten Offering contemplated by this Agreement in which a Selling Holder participates, CEI shall be obligated to enter into an underwriting agreement that contains such representations, covenants, indemnities and other rights and obligations as are customary in underwriting agreements for firm commitment offerings of securities. No Selling Holder may participate in such Underwritten Offering unless such Selling Holder agrees to sell its Registrable Securities on the basis provided in such underwriting agreement and completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting agreement. Each Selling Holder may, at its option, require that any or all of the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, CEI to and for the benefit of such underwriters also be made to and for such Selling Holder’s benefit and that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement also be conditions precedent to its obligations. No Selling Holder shall be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with CEI or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Selling Holder and its ownership of the securities being registered on its behalf, its intended method of distribution and any other representation required by law. If any Selling Holder disapproves of the terms of an underwriting, such Selling Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by notice to CEI and the Managing Underwriter; provided, however, that such withdrawal must be made up to and including the time of pricing of such Underwritten Offering.

Section 2.04 Sale Procedures. In connection with its obligations under this Article II, CEI will, as expeditiously as possible:

(a) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective for the Effectiveness Period and as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by the Registration Statement;

(b) if a prospectus supplement will be used in connection with the marketing of an Underwritten Offering from the Registration Statement and the Managing Underwriter at any time shall notify CEI in writing that, in the sole judgment of such Managing Underwriter, inclusion of detailed information to be used in such prospectus supplement is of material importance to the success of the Underwritten Offering of such Registrable Securities, use its commercially reasonable efforts to include such information in such prospectus supplement;

(e) promptly notify each Selling Holder and each underwriter of Registrable Securities, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered by any of them under the Securities Act, of (i) the filing of the Registration Statement or any other registration statement contemplated by this Agreement or any prospectus or prospectus supplement to be used in connection therewith, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and, with respect to such Registration Statement or any other registration statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has become effective; and (ii) any written comments from the Commission with respect to any filing referred to in clause (i) and any written request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or any other registration statement or any prospectus or prospectus supplement thereto;

Following the provision of such notice, CEI agrees to as promptly as practicable amend or supplement the prospectus or prospectus supplement or take other appropriate action so that the prospectus or prospectus supplement does 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 and to take such other action as is necessary to remove a stop order, suspension, threat thereof or proceedings related thereto;

(g) upon request and subject to appropriate confidentiality obligations, furnish to each Selling Holder copies of any and all transmittal letters or other correspondence with the Commission or any other governmental agency or self-regulatory body or other body having jurisdiction (including any domestic or foreign securities exchange) relating to such offering of Registrable Securities;

(i) otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158;

(j) make available to the appropriate representatives of the Managing Underwriter and Selling Holders access to such information and CEI personnel as is reasonable and customary to enable such parties to establish a due diligence defense under the Securities Act; provided, however, that CEI need not disclose any such information to any such representative unless and until such representative has entered into or is otherwise subject to a confidentiality agreement with CEI satisfactory to CEI;

(k) cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Agreement to be listed on each securities exchange or nationally recognized quotation system on which similar securities issued by CEI are then listed;

(l) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities 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 CEI to enable the Selling Holders to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;

(m) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement not later than the effective date of such registration statement;

(n) enter into customary agreements and take such other actions as are reasonably requested by the Selling Holders or the underwriters, if any, in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities; and

(o) if any Holder could reasonably be deemed to be an “underwriter”, as defined in Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, in connection with the registration statement in respect of any registration of CEI’s securities of any Holder pursuant to this Agreement, and any amendment or supplement thereof (any such registration statement or amendment or supplement a “Holder Underwriter Registration Statement”), cooperate with such Holder in allowing such Holder to conduct customary “underwriter’s due diligence” with respect to CEI and satisfy its obligations in respect thereof. In addition, at any Holder’s request, CEI will furnish to such Holder, on the date of the effectiveness of any Holder Underwriter Registration Statement and thereafter from time to time on such dates as such Holder may reasonably request, (i) a letter, dated such date, from CEI’s independent certified public accountants in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to such Holder, and (ii) an opinion, dated as of such date, of counsel representing CEI for purposes of such Holder Underwriter Registration Statement, in form, scope and substance as is customarily given in an underwritten public offering, including a standard “10b-5” statement of negative assurance for such offering, addressed to such Holder. CEI will also permit legal counsel to such Holder to review and comment upon any such Holder Underwriter Registration Statement at least five Business Days prior to its filing with the Commission and all amendments and supplements to any such Holder Underwriter Registration Statement within a reasonable number of days prior to their filing with the Commission and not file any Holder Underwriter Registration Statement or amendment or supplement thereto in a form to which such Holder’s legal counsel reasonably objects.

Each Selling Holder, upon receipt of notice from CEI of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 2.04(f) of this Agreement, shall forthwith discontinue disposition of the Registrable Securities until such Selling Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 2.04(f) of this Agreement or until it is advised in writing by CEI that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings incorporated by reference in the prospectus, and, if so directed by CEI, such Selling Holder will, or will request the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, to deliver to CEI (at CEI’s expense) all copies in their possession or control, other than permanent file copies then in such Selling Holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.

If requested by PIC, CEI shall: (i) as soon as practicable incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as such Holder reasonably requests to be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being offered or sold, the purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; (ii) as soon as practicable make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (iii) as soon as practicable, supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement.

Section 2.05 Cooperation by Holders. CEI shall have no obligation to include in the Registration Statement Common Stock of a Holder, or in an Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section 2.02 of this Agreement, Common Stock of a Selling Holder, who has failed to timely furnish such information that, in the opinion of counsel to CEI, is reasonably required in order for the registration statement or prospectus supplement, as applicable, to comply with the Securities Act.

Section 2.06 Restrictions on Public Sale by Holders of Registrable Securities. For a period of 365 days from the Second Closing Date, each Holder of Registrable Securities who is included in the Registration Statement agrees not to effect any public sale or distribution of the Registrable Securities during the 30-day period following completion of an Underwritten Offering of equity securities by CEI, whether for its own account or for the account of Allied (except as provided in this Section 2.06); provided, however, that the duration of the foregoing restrictions shall be no longer than the duration of the shortest restriction generally imposed by the underwriters on the officers or directors or any other stockholder of CEI on whom a restriction is imposed in connection with such public offering. In addition, except in the case of primary Underwritten Offerings of equity offerings by CEI, the provisions of this Section 2.06 shall not apply with respect to a Holder that (a) owns less than $10,000,000 of Common Stock, based on a valuation price of $0.7164 per share of Common Stock, (b) has delivered an Opt Out Notice to CEI pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof or (c) has submitted a notice requesting the inclusion of Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section 2.02 or Section 2.03(a) hereof but is unable to do so as a result of the priority provisions contained in Section 2.02(b) hereof.

(a) Certain Definitions. “Registration Expenses” means all expenses incident to CEI’s performance under or compliance with this Agreement to effect the registration of Registrable Securities on the Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof or an Underwritten Offering covered under this Agreement, and the disposition of such securities, including, without limitation, all registration, filing, securities exchange listing and NYSE MKT fees, all registration, filing, qualification and other fees and expenses of complying with securities or blue sky laws, fees of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), transfer taxes and fees of transfer agents and registrars and all word processing fees, and the fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for CEI in connection with CEI’s obligations under Section 2.01 of this Agreement. “Selling Expenses” means all underwriting fees, discounts and selling commissions allocable to the sale of the Registrable Securities, and, in the case of an Underwritten Offering, duplicating and printing expenses and the fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for CEI, including the expenses of any special audits or “cold comfort” letters required by or incident to such performance and compliance with Sections 2.03 and 2.04 of this Agreement.

(b) Expenses. CEI will pay all reasonable Registration Expenses as determined in good faith, including, in the case of an Underwritten Offering, whether or not any sale is made pursuant to such Underwritten Offering. In addition, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.08 hereof, CEI shall not be responsible for legal fees incurred by Holders in connection with the exercise of such Holders’ rights hereunder. Each Selling Holder shall pay all Selling Expenses in connection with any sale of its Registrable Securities hereunder.

Section 2.08 Indemnification.

(a) By CEI. In the event of an offering of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, CEI will indemnify and hold harmless each Selling Holder thereunder, its directors and officers, and each underwriter, pursuant to the applicable underwriting agreement with such underwriter, of Registrable Securities thereunder and each Person, if any, who controls such Selling Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and its directors and officers, against any losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”), joint or several, to which such Selling Holder, director, officer, underwriter or controlling Person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Losses (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any other registration statement contemplated by this Agreement, any preliminary prospectus, free writing prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and will reimburse each such Selling Holder, its directors and officers, each such underwriter and each such controlling Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Loss or actions or proceedings; provided, however, that CEI will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in strict conformity with information furnished by such Selling Holder, its directors or officers or any underwriter or controlling Person in writing specifically for use in the Registration Statement or such other registration statement, or prospectus supplement, as applicable. 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 Selling Holder, its directors or officers or any underwriter or controlling Person, and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Selling Holder.

(b) By Each Selling Holder. Each Selling Holder agrees severally and not jointly to indemnify and hold harmless CEI, its directors and officers, and each Person, if any, who controls CEI within the meaning of the Securities Act or of the Exchange Act, and its directors and officers, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from CEI 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 or any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus included therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto; provided, however, that the liability of each Selling Holder 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 so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party other than under this Section 2.08. 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 2.08 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 indemnifying party shall settle any action brought against an indemnified party with respect to which it is entitled to indemnification hereunder without the consent of the 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. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no indemnified party shall settle any action brought against it with respect to which it 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.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.08 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 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 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 which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that in no event shall such 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 from the sale of Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification. 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 which 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 which 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 such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e) Other Indemnification. The provisions of this Section 2.08 shall be in addition to any other rights to indemnification or contribution which an indemnified party may have pursuant to law, equity, contract or otherwise.

Section 2.09 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, CEI agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information regarding CEI 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 CEI under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act at all times from and after the date hereof; and

(c) so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish, unless otherwise not available at no charge by access electronically to the Commission’s XXXXX filing system, to such Holder forthwith upon request a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of CEI, 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 2.10 Transfer or Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause CEI to register Registrable Securities granted to PIC by CEI under this Article II may be transferred or assigned by PIC to one or more transferee(s) or assignee(s) of such Registrable Securities; provided, however, that, (a) unless such transferee is an Affiliate of PIC, each such transferee or assignee holds as a result of and at the date of transfer or assignment Registrable Securities representing at least $10,000,000 of the Registrable Securities, based on a valuation price of $0.7164 per share of Common Stock, (b) CEI is given written notice prior to any such transfer or assignment, stating the name and address of each such transferee and identifying the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned and (c) each such transferee assumes in writing responsibility for its portion of the obligations of PIC under this Agreement.

Section 2.11 Limitation on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date hereof, CEI shall not, without the prior written consent of the Holders of a majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities, (a) enter into any agreement with any current or future holder of any securities of CEI that would allow such current or future holder to require CEI to include securities in any registration statement filed by CEI on a basis that is superior in any way to the piggyback rights granted to PIC hereunder or (b) grant registration rights to any other Person that would be superior to PIC’s registration rights hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 2.11 or elsewhere herein will in any way be construed to prohibit CEI from entering into and performing the Allied Registration Rights Agreement.

Section 3.05 Specific Performance. Damages in the event of breach of this Agreement by a party hereto may be difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain, and it is therefore agreed that each party, in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right it may have, will have the right to an injunction or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction, enjoining any such breach, and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof, and each of the parties hereto hereby waives any and all defenses it may have on the ground of lack of jurisdiction or competence of the court to grant such an injunction or other equitable relief.
