the Investor) an appropriate instruction and opinion of such counsel, if so
required by the Company’s transfer agent; and
(l)
Take all other reasonable
actions necessary to expedite and facilitate distribution to the Investor of the
Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.
4. Obligations of the
Investor. In connection with the registration of the
Registrable Securities, the Investor shall have the following
obligations;
(a) It
shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the
registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable
Securities of the Investor that the Investor shall timely furnish to the Company
such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and
the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it, as
shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Registrable
Securities and shall timely execute such documents in connection with such
registration as the Company may reasonably request.
(b) The
Investor by such Investor’s acceptance of the Registrable Securities agrees to
cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection
with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement hereunder;
and
(c) The
Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the
happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(g) or 3(h) above, the
Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities
pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities
until the Investor receives the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus
contemplated by Section 3(g) or 3(h) and, if so directed by the Company, the
Investor shall deliver to the Company (at the expense of the Company) or destroy
(and deliver to the Company a certificate of destruction) all copies in the
Investor’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities
current at the time of receipt of such notice.

Registration. (a) All reasonable expenses
incurred in connection with Registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to

fees, printers and accounting fees, the fees and disbursements of counsel for
the Company shall be borne by the Company.

as otherwise provided for in Schedule 5(b)
attached hereto, the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has, as of the date
hereof, and the Company shall not on or after the date of this Agreement, enter
into any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the
rights granted to Investor in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the
provisions hereof. Except as otherwise provided for in Schedule 5(b), the
Company has not previously entered into any agreement granting any registration
rights with respect to any of its securities to any person.
4
6.
Indemnification.
After Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement
under this Agreement:
(a) To
the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless, the
Investor, the directors, if any, of such Investor, the officers, if any, of such
Investor, each person, if any, who controls the Investor within the meaning of
the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, an "Indemnified Person"), against
any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (joint or several) incurred
(collectively, "Claims") to which any of them may become subject under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claims (or
actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any
post-effective amendment thereof or the omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus or
contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company
files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission
or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the
statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which the
statements therein were made, not misleading or (iii) any violation or alleged
violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state
securities law or any rule or regulation under the Securities Act, the Exchange
Act or any state securities law (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i)
through (iii) being collectively referred to
as "Violations"). Subject to Section 6(b) hereof, the
Company shall reimburse the Investor, promptly as such expenses are incurred and
are due and payable, for any reasonable legal fees or other reasonable expenses
incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such
Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a) shall not
(i) apply to any Claims arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in
reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the
Company by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person expressly for use in
connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such
amendment thereof or supplement thereto, if such prospectus was timely made
available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof; (ii) with respect to
any preliminary prospectus, inure to the benefit of any such person from whom
the person asserting any such Claim purchased the Registrable Securities that
are the subject thereof (or to the benefit of any person controlling such
person) if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the
preliminary prospectus was corrected in the prospectus, as then amended or
supplemented, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company
pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof; (iii) be available to the extent such Claim is
based on a failure of the Investor to deliver or cause to be delivered the
prospectus made available by the Company; or (iv) apply to amounts paid in
settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written
consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. The Investor will indemnify the Company, its officers,
directors and agents (including legal counsel) against any claims arising out of
or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished in writing to the Company, by or on behalf of the
Investor, expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the
Registration Statement, subject to such limitations and conditions set forth in
the previous sentence. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and
effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified
Person or Indemnified Party.
(b) Promptly
after receipt by an Indemnified Person under this Section 6 of notice of the
commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Indemnified
Person shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any
indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a
written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have
the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so
desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume
control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the
indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person, as the case may be; provided, however, that an
Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the
reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the
reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the
representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person and the indemnifying
party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests
between such Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel
in such proceeding. In such event, the Company shall pay for only one
separate legal counsel for the Investor selected by the Investor. The
failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable
time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying
party of any liability to the Indemnified Person under this Section 6, except to
the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend
such action. The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be
made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the
investigation or defense, as such expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred
and is due and payable.
5
7.
Contribution. To
the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited
by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with
respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to
the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that (a) no
contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not have
been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in Section
6; (b) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who
was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation; and (c) contribution by any
seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of
proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable
Securities.
8.
Reports under Exchange
Act. With a view to making available to the Investor the
benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any other similar
rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investor to sell
securities of the Company to the public without registration ("Rule 144"), the
Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to:
(a) make
and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined
in Rule 144;
(b) file
with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the
Company under the Exchange Act;
(c) furnish
to the Investor so long as the Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly
upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with
the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act,
(ii) unless available to the Investor without charge through ▇▇▇▇▇, the SEC's
website or the Company's website, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly
report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the
Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to
permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without
registration; and
(d) at
the request of any Investor of Registrable Securities, give its Transfer Agent
instructions (supported by an opinion of Company counsel, if required or
requested by the Transfer Agent) to the effect that, upon the Transfer Agent’s
receipt from such Investor of:
(i) a
certificate (a “Rule 144 Certificate”) certifying (A) that such Investor has
held the shares of Registrable Securities which the Investor proposes to sell
(the “Securities Being Sold”) for a period of not less than (1) year and (B) as
to such other matters as may be appropriate in accordance with Rule 144 under
the Securities Act, and
(ii) an
opinion of counsel acceptable to the Company (for which purposes it is agreed
that the initial Investor’s Counsel shall be deemed acceptable if such opinion
is not given by Company Counsel) that, based on the Rule 144 Certificate,
Securities Being Sold may be sold pursuant to the provisions of Rule
144, even in the absence of an effective Registration Statement,
6
the
Transfer Agent is to effect the transfer of the Securities Being Sold and issue
to the buyer(s) or transferee(s) thereof one or more stock certificates
representing the transferred Securities Being Sold without any restrictive
legend and without recording any restrictions on the transferability of such
shares on the Transfer Agent’s books and records (except to the
extent any such legend or restriction results from facts other than the identity
of the Investor, as the seller or transferor thereof, or the status, including
any relevant legends or restrictions, of the shares of the Securities Being Sold
while held by the Investor). If the Transfer Agent requires any
additional documentation at the time of the transfer, the Company shall deliver
or cause to be delivered all such reasonable additional documentation as may be
necessary to effectuate the issuance of an unlegended certificate.
9.
Miscellaneous.
(a) Registered
Owners. A person or entity is deemed to be a holder of
Registrable Securities whenever such person or entity owns of record such

of instructions, notice or election received from the registered owner of such
Registrable Securities.

Agreement are cumulative. The rights of each of the parties hereunder

or any other such right. Any defective or partial exercise of any of
such rights shall not preclude any other or further exercise of that or any
other such right. No act or course of conduct or negotiation on the
part of any party shall in any way preclude such party from exercising any such

right.
