REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 2.1 [Reserved].

Section 2.2 Demand Registration. (a) If at any time the Corporation shall receive a written request (a “Demand Notice”) from TCG Partners that the Corporation effect the registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of the Registrable Securities specified in the Demand Notice (a “Demand Registration”), specifying the information set forth under Section 2.5(j), then the Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect, as expeditiously as reasonably practicable, subject to paragraphs (c) and (d) of this Section 2.2, the registration under the Securities Act of the Registrable Securities for which TCG Partners has requested registration under this Section 2.2, all to the extent necessary to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods thereof as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities so to be registered.

(b) At any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating to such registration, TCG Partners may revoke such Demand Registration request by providing a notice to the Corporation revoking such request. The Corporation shall be liable for and pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any Demand Registration.

(c) If the sole or managing underwriter of a Demand Registration advises the Corporation and TCG Partners that in its opinion the number of Registrable Securities and other securities requested to be included exceeds the largest number of Registrable Securities and other securities which can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the distribution of the securities being offered, the price that will be paid in such offering or the marketability thereof (the “Maximum Offering Size”), the Corporation shall include in such registration, in the priority listed below, up to the Maximum Offering Size:

(i) first, all Registrable Securities requested to be registered in the Demand Registration by TCG Partners (allocated, if necessary for the offering not to exceed the Maximum Offering Size, in such proportions as shall be determined by TCG Partners);

(ii) second, any securities proposed to be registered by the Corporation for its own account and any securities entitled to Other Registration Rights requested to be registered by the holders thereof, ratably among the Corporation and the holders of such Other Registration Rights, based (A) as between the Corporation and the holders of such Other Registration Rights, on the respective amounts of securities requested to be registered, and as among the holders of such Other Registration Rights, on the respective amounts of securities subject to such Other Registration Rights held by each such holder.

(d) Upon notice to TCG Partners, the Corporation may postpone effecting a registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 for a reasonable time specified in the notice but not exceeding 120 days in the aggregate (which period may not be extended or renewed), if (i) the Board shall determine in good faith that effecting the registration would materially and adversely affect an offering of securities of the Corporation the preparation of which had then been commenced or (ii) the Corporation is in possession of material non-public information the disclosure of which during the period specified in such notice the Board believes in good faith would not be in the best interests of the Corporation.

Section 2.3 Piggyback Registration. (a) Subject to any contractual obligations to the contrary, if the Corporation proposes at any time to register any of the equity securities issued by it under the Securities Act (other than a registration on Form S-8 or Form S-4, or any successor forms, relating to shares of Common Stock issuable in connection with any employee benefit or similar plan of the Corporation or in connection with a direct or indirect acquisition by the Corporation of another person or as a recapitalization or reclassification of securities of the Corporation), whether or not for sale for its own account, the Corporation shall each such time give prompt notice at least 15 business days prior to the anticipated filing date of the registration statement relating to such registration to TCG Partners, which notice shall offer TCG Partners the opportunity to elect to include in such registration statement the number of Registrable Securities of the same class or series as those proposed to be registered held by Covered Persons as TCG Partners may request (a “Piggyback Registration”), subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(b). If TCG Partners elects to effect a Piggyback Registration, the Corporation shall give notice of the registration statement relating to such registration to those Covered Persons who TCG Partners determines to afford participation in the Piggyback Registration. Upon the request of TCG Partners, the Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities that the Corporation has been so requested to register by TCG Partners, to the extent necessary to permit the disposition of the Registrable Securities to be so registered, provided that (i) if such registration involves an underwritten Public Offering, all such Covered Persons to be included in the Corporation’s registration must sell their Registrable Securities to the underwriters selected by the Corporation on the same terms and conditions as apply to the Corporation or any other selling person, as applicable, and (ii) if, at any time after giving notice of its intention to register any securities pursuant to this Section 2.3(a) and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Corporation shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay registration of such securities, the Corporation shall give notice of such determination to each holder of such Registrable Securities and, thereupon shall be relieved of its obligation to

register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration, or shall be permitted to delay registration of such securities, as the case may be. No registration effected under this Section 2.3 shall relieve the Corporation of its obligations to effect a Demand Registration to the extent required by Section 2.2. The Corporation shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each Piggyback Registration.

(b) Subject to Section 2.2(c) and any other contractual obligations to the contrary, if a Piggyback Registration involves an underwritten Public Offering and the managing or sole underwriter advises the Corporation that, in its view, the number of Registrable Securities that the Corporation and such Covered Persons intend to include in such registration exceeds the Maximum Offering Size, the Corporation shall include in such registration, in the following priority, up to the Maximum Offering Size:

(i) first, (A) any securities proposed to be registered by the Corporation for its own account (in the case of Piggyback Registrations in respect of such transactions) or (B) any securities proposed to be registered pursuant to any demand registration rights of the holders of Other Registration Rights (in the case of Piggyback Registrations in respect of such transactions);

(ii) second, any securities to be registered by the Corporation for its own account (in the case of Piggyback Registrations in respect of transactions described in 2.3(b)(i)(B)), and any Registrable Securities and Corporation securities entitled to Other Registration Rights that are pari passu with Registrable Securities, in each case, requested to be registered by the holders thereof, ratably among the Corporation (if applicable), the holders of Registrable Securities and securities subject to such Other Registration Rights based (A) as between the Corporation and such holders requesting registration (if applicable), on the respective amounts of securities requested to be registered, and (B) as among the holders requesting registration, on the respective amounts of Registrable Securities and securities subject to such Other Registration Rights, as the case may be, held by each such holder; and

(iii) third, any securities proposed to be registered for the account of any other persons with such priorities among them as the Corporation shall determine.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 2.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement, no provision relating to the registration of Registrable Securities shall be construed as permitting any Covered Person to effect a transfer of securities that is otherwise prohibited by the terms of any agreement between such Covered Person and the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries. Unless the Corporation shall otherwise consent, the Corporation shall not be obligated to provide notice or afford Piggyback Registration to TCG Partners or any Covered Person pursuant to this Section 2.3 unless some or all of such person’s Registrable Securities are permitted to be transferred under the terms of applicable agreements between such person and the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries.

(d) Upon delivering a request under this Section 2.3, a Covered Person will, if requested by the Corporation, execute and deliver a custody agreement and power of attorney in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation with respect to such Covered Person’s Securities to be registered pursuant to this Section 2.3 (a “Custody Agreement and Power of Attorney”). The Custody Agreement and Power of Attorney will provide, among other things, that the Covered Person will deliver to and deposit in custody with the custodian and attorney-in-fact named therein a certificate or certificates representing such Securities (duly endorsed in blank by the registered owner or owners thereof or accompanied by duly executed stock powers in blank) and irrevocably appoint said custodian and attorney-in-fact with full power and authority to act under the Custody Agreement and Power of Attorney on such Covered Person’s behalf with respect to the matters specified therein. Such Covered Person also agrees to execute such other agreements as the Corporation may reasonably request to further evidence the provisions of this Section 2.3.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Covered Person who is not an “affiliate” of the Corporation for purposes of Rule 144 shall not have the right to participate in such Piggyback Registration pursuant to this Section 2.3, except to the extent the securities to be registered and offered pursuant to such Piggyback Registration will be an underwritten offering.

Section 2.4 Lock-Up Agreements. The Corporation and each Covered Person agree that in connection with any Public Offering of Registrable Securities, the Corporation will not and each Covered Person, without the written consent of TCG Partners, will not (x) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the securities being registered or any securities convertible or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities or (y) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the securities being registered or any securities convertible or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities (except as part of such Public Offering of Registrable Securities), during the period (the “Lock-Up Period”) beginning 14 days prior to the effective date of the applicable registration statement until the earlier of (i) such time as TCG Partners and the lead managing underwriter shall agree and (ii) 180 days following the pricing of such Public Offering of Registrable Securities.

Section 2.5 Registration Procedures. In connection with any request by TCG Partners that Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to Sections 2.2 or 2.3, subject to the provisions of such Sections, the paragraphs below shall be applicable:

(a) The Corporation shall as expeditiously as reasonably practicable prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on any form for which the Corporation then qualifies or that counsel for the Corporation shall deem appropriate and which form shall be available for the registration of the Registrable Securities to be registered thereunder in accordance with the intended method of distribution thereof, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such filed registration statement to become and remain effective for a period of not less than 40 days.

(b) Prior to filing a registration statement or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, the Corporation shall, if requested, furnish to each Covered Person holding Registrable Securities included in any such registration statement (each, a “Registering Covered Person”) and each underwriter, if any, of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration

statement copies of such registration statement as proposed to be filed, and thereafter the Corporation shall furnish to such Registering Covered Person and underwriter, if any, such number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus and any summary prospectus) and any other prospectus filed under Rule 424 or Rule 430A under the Securities Act and such other documents as such Registering Covered Person or underwriter may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Registering Covered Person. The Registering Covered Person shall have the right to request that the Corporation modify any information contained in such registration statement, amendment and supplement thereto pertaining to such Registering Covered Person and the Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with such request, provided, however, that the Corporation shall not have any obligation to so modify any information if the Corporation reasonably expects that so doing would cause the prospectus to contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

(c) After the filing of the registration statement, the Corporation shall (i) cause the related prospectus to be supplemented by any required prospectus supplement, and, as so supplemented, to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act, (ii) comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement during the applicable period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Registering Covered Person thereof set forth in such registration statement or supplement to such prospectus and (iii) promptly notify each Registering Covered Person holding Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement of any stop order issued or threatened by the SEC suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement or any state securities commission and take all commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the entry of such stop order or to obtain the withdrawal of such order if entered.

(d) To the extent any “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) is used, the Corporation shall file with the SEC any free writing prospectus that is required to be filed by the Corporation with the SEC in accordance with the Securities Act and retain any free writing prospectus not required to be filed.

(e) The Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as any Registering Covered Person holding such Registrable Securities or each underwriter, if any, reasonably (in light of such member’s intended plan of distribution) requests and (ii) cause such 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 the Corporation and do any and all other acts and things that may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such Registering Covered Person to consummate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such person, provided that the Corporation shall not be required to (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 2.5(e), (B) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (C) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction.

(f) The Corporation shall immediately notify each Registering Covered Person holding such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement or each underwriter, if any, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and promptly prepare and make available to each such Registering Covered Person or underwriter, if any, and file with the SEC any such supplement or amendment.

(g) TCG Partners shall select an underwriter or underwriters in connection with any Public Offering. In connection with any Public Offering, the Corporation shall enter into customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such all other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in any such Public Offering, including if necessary the engagement of a “qualified independent underwriter” in connection with the qualification of the underwriting arrangements with FINRA.

(h) Subject to the execution of confidentiality agreements satisfactory in form and substance to the Corporation in the exercise of its good faith judgment, pursuant to the reasonable request of TCG Partners or underwriter (if any), the Corporation will give to each Registering Covered Person, each underwriter (if any) and their respective counsel and accountants (i) reasonable and customary access to its books and records and (ii) such opportunities to discuss the business of the Corporation with its directors, officers, employees, counsel and the independent public accountants who have certified its financial statements, as shall be appropriate, in the reasonable judgment of counsel to such Registering Covered Person or underwriter, to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility.

(i) The Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to each Registering Covered Person and to each such underwriter, if any, a signed counterpart, addressed to such person or underwriter, of (i) an opinion or opinions of counsel to the Corporation and (ii) a comfort letter or comfort letters from the Corporation’s independent public accountants, each in customary form and covering such matters of the kind customarily covered by opinions or comfort letters, as the case may be, as TCG Partners or such underwriter reasonably requests.

(j) Each Registering Covered Person registering securities under Sections 2.2 or 2.3 shall promptly furnish in writing to the Corporation the information set forth in Appendix A and such other information regarding itself, the distribution of the Registrable Securities as the Corporation may from time to time reasonably request and such other information as may be legally required or advisable in connection with such registration.

(k) Each Registering Covered Person and each underwriter, if any, agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Corporation of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 2.5(f), such Registering Covered Person or underwriter shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registrable Securities until such Registering Covered Person’s or underwriter’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 2.5(f), provided, however, that, upon written notice to each Registering Covered Person and each underwriter, if any, and for a reasonable time specified in the notice but not exceeding 60 days thereafter or 90 days in any 365 day period (the “Suspension Period”), the Corporation may suspend the use or effectiveness of any registration statement if the Board determines, in its sole discretion, that the Corporation is in possession of material non-public information the disclosure of which during the period specified in such notice the Board believes in good faith would not be in the best interests of the Corporation; and, if so directed by the Corporation, such Registering Covered Person or underwriter shall deliver to the Corporation all copies, other than any permanent file copies then in such Registering Covered Person’s possession, of the most recent prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. If the Corporation shall give such notice, the Corporation shall extend the period during which such registration statement shall be maintained effective (including the period referred to in Section 2.5(a)) by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of notice pursuant to Section 2.5(f) to the date when the Corporation shall make available to such Registering Covered Person a prospectus supplemented or amended to conform with the requirements of Section 2.5(f).

(l) The Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to list all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement on any securities exchange or quotation system on which any of the Registrable Securities are then listed or traded.

(m) The Corporation shall have appropriate officers of the Corporation prepare and make presentations at any “road shows” and before analysts and rating agencies, as the case may be, (ii) take other actions to obtain ratings for any Registrable Securities and (iii) otherwise use their commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate as reasonably requested by the underwriters in the offering, marketing or selling of the Registrable Securities.

(n) The Corporation shall cooperate with the Registering Covered Persons to facilitate the timely delivery of Registrable Securities to be sold, which shall not bear any restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable Securities to be issued in such denominations and registered in such names as such Registering Covered Persons may reasonably request at least two business days prior to the closing of any sale of Registrable Securities.

Section 2.6 Indemnification by the Corporation. In the event of any registration of any Registrable Securities of the Corporation under the Securities Act pursuant to this Article II, the Corporation will, and it hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, a Registering Covered Person, each affiliate of such Registering Covered Person and their respective directors and officers or general and limited partners or members and managing members (including any director, officer, affiliate, employee, agent and controlling person of any of the foregoing) and each other person, if any, who controls such Registering Covered Person within the meaning of the Securities Act (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), from and

against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted, as such fees and expenses are incurred), joint or several, that arise out of, or are based upon, (1) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement or amendment or supplement thereto under which such Registrable Securities were registered or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, or (2) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any prospectus, any free writing prospectus or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act in respect of the Registrable Securities, or amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, that the Corporation shall not be liable to any Registering Covered Person or other Indemnified Party in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, prospectus, any free writing prospectus or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act in respect of the Registrable Securities, or amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information regarding a Registering Covered Person furnished to the Corporation by such Registering Covered Person or other Indemnified Party with respect to such seller or any underwriter specifically for use in the preparation thereof.

Section 2.7 Indemnification by Registering Covered Persons. Each Registering Covered Person hereby indemnifies and holds harmless, and the Corporation may require, as a condition to including any Registrable Securities in any registration statement filed in accordance with this Article II, that the Corporation shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from any underwriter to indemnify and hold harmless, the Corporation and all other prospective sellers of Registrable Securities, the directors of the Corporation, each officer of the Corporation or the Corporation who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Corporation and all other prospective sellers of Registrable Securities within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in Section 2.6 above, but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Corporation with respect to such seller or any underwriter specifically for use in the preparation of such registration statement, prospectus, any free writing prospectus or any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act in respect of the Registrable Securities, or amendment or supplement thereto. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Corporation, any of the Registering Covered Persons or any underwriter, or any of their respective affiliates, directors, officers or controlling persons and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such person. In no event shall any such indemnification liability of any Registering Covered Person be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such Registering Covered Person upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

Section 2.8 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party hereunder 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 Article II, such Indemnified Party 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; provided, that the failure of the Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Article II, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice.

In case any such action is brought against an Indemnified Party, unless in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such Indemnified Party and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense thereof, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified to the extent that it may wish, 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 the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. It is understood and agreed that the indemnifying person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm (x) for any Covered Person, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of such Indemnified Party shall be designated in writing by TCG Partners, (y) in all other cases shall be designated in writing by the Corporation. The indemnifying person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement (A) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (B) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party.

Section 2.9 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Article II from the indemnifying party is unavailable to an Indemnified Party hereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then the 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 losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and Indemnified Parties in connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and Indemnified Parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a

material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or Indemnified Parties, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party under this Section 2.9 as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.9 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding 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 was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

Section 2.10 Participation in Public Offering. No Covered Person may participate in any Public Offering hereunder unless such Covered Person (a) agrees to sell such Covered Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Covered Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements and the provisions of this Agreement in respect of registration rights.

Section 2.11 Other Indemnification. Indemnification similar to that specified herein (with appropriate modifications) shall be given by the Corporation and the Registering Covered Person participating therein with respect to any required registration or other qualification of securities under any federal or state law or regulation or Governmental Authority other than the Securities Act.

Section 2.12 Cooperation by the Corporation. If the Covered Person shall transfer any Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144, the Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Covered Person and shall provide to the Covered Person such information as may be required to be provided under Rule 144.

Section 2.13 Parties in Interest. Each Covered Person shall be entitled to receive the benefits of this Agreement and shall be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement by reason of such Covered Person’s election to participate in a registration under this Article II.

Section 2.14 Acknowledgement Regarding the Corporation. Other than those determinations reserved expressly to TCG Partners, all determinations necessary or advisable under this Article II shall be made by the Board, the determinations of which shall be final and binding.

ARTICLE III

Section 3.1 Term of the Agreement; Termination of Certain Provisions; Amendment.
