THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT is made as of November 12, 1997, by and
among Prosoft I-Net Solutions, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), and
the Persons set forth on Schedule I attached hereto (the "Investors").
The Investors intend to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock
pursuant to separate subscription agreements between the Company and each of the
Investors. The execution and delivery of this Agreement is a condition to the
Investors' purchase of the Common Stock. Capitalized terms used herein shall
have the meanings set forth in Section 9 below.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, in consideration of the foregoing, the
mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, and other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which hereby are
acknowledged, agree as follows:
1. REGISTRATION STATEMENTS.
(a) Shelf Registration. (i) The Company shall, on or before December 12,
1997, prepare and file with the Commission under the Securities Act a
Registration Statement with respect to the Registrable Securities, and shall use
its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective
at the earliest practicable date. The Company shall, subject to Sections
1(a)(v) and (vi), ensure the availability of a Prospectus meeting the
requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act and shall take any and all
other actions necessary in order to ensure the ability of the holders of the
Registrable Securities to effect a resale of their Registrable Securities, for
such period as the Company is obligated to maintain the effectiveness of a
Registration Statement pursuant to Section 1(a)(ii).
(ii) The Company shall use its best efforts to cause any such
Registration Statement described in Section 1(a)(i) to remain effective (or, if
required by applicable law, to cause another Registration Statement with respect
to the Registrable Securities to become and remain effective) until the earlier
to occur of: (i) such time as all the Registrable Securities have been sold by
the Investors and (ii) such time as all the Registrable Securities held by the
Investors could be sold under Rule 144 of the Securities Act during any 90-day
period.
(iii) Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees by acquisition of
such Registrable Securities to give at least five Business Days' prior notice to
the Company of any intended distribution of Registrable Securities under any
Registration Statement described in Section 1(a)(i), which notice shall specify
the date on which such holder intends to begin such distribution.
(iv) As soon as possible after the date notice is provided pursuant to
Section 1(a)(iii), and in any event within five Business Days of such date, the
Company shall, subject to Sections 1(a)(v) and 1(a)(vi): (A) file such
amendments to the Registration Statement and the
Prospectus, file such documents as may be required to be incorporated by
reference in any of such documents, and take all other actions as may be
necessary to ensure to the holders of Registrable Securities the ability to
effect the public resale of their Registrable Securities for a period of at
least 90 days following the date set forth in such notice (including without
limitation taking any actions necessary to ensure the availability of a
Prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act), (B)
provide each holder of Registrable Securities copies of any documents prepared
pursuant to Section 1(a)(iv)(A), and (C) inform each holder of Registrable
Securities that the Company has complied with the obligations in Seciton
1(a)(iv)(A) and that such holder may sell such holder's Registrable Securities.
(v) The Company may suspend the effectiveness of any Registration
Statement filed pursuant to this Section 1(a) if, in its reasonable judgment,
(A) maintaining the effectiveness of such Registration Statement at such time
would adversely affect a proposed financing, reorganization or recapitalization,
or pending negotiations relating to a merger, consolidation, acquisition or
similar transaction, or otherwise adversely affect the Company; or (B) financial
statements meeting the requirements of Regulation S-X are not available at such
time because of any such pending proposal or negotiations; provided, however,
that the right of the Company pursuant to this subsection (v) to suspend the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall not extend for more than 90
days; and provided, further, that the Company shall give to each holder of
Registrable Securities prior written notice of such suspension.
(vi) No holder of Registrable Securities shall distribute its
Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Offering pursuant to a Registration
Statement filed pursuant to this Section 1(a) unless the holders of Registrable
Securities then constituting greater than 40% of the Registrable Securities have
given notice to the Company of their request for an Underwritten Offering. If a
request for an Underwritten Offering is made pursuant to this Section 1(a) by
less than all of the holders of Registrable Securities, the Company shall
promptly give notice of such request to all other holders of Registrable
Securities; and each of such holders shall have the right, by giving written
notice to the Company promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such
notice is given by the Company), to join in such request and to have included in
the Underwritten Offering such number of Registrable Securities as such holder
shall specify in such notice.
(b) Incidental Registration. (i) In addition to and independent of the
rights afforded by Section 1(a), prior to filing with the Commission any
Registration Statement (on Form S-1 or Form S-3 or any general form for the
registration of securities now or hereafter adopted comparable to either of such
Forms as now in effect (other than a Registration Statement on Form S-4 or Form
S-8 or any successor form to such Forms)), during the period from and including
September 13, 1997 to but excluding March 13, 2000, with respect to any
underwritten public offering of the Company's equity securities or any
securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity
securities, the Company shall notify each Significant Investor Group of such
proposed filing and the price at which the shares are expected to be offered
pursuant thereto. Any such Significant Investor Group wishing to have any of
its
2
members' Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement shall
promptly (and in any event within 30 days after such notice is given by the
Company) give written notice to the Company requesting registration of such
members' Registrable Securities, specifying the member(s) whose Registrable
Securities are requested to be registered, specifying the number of Registrable
Securities requested to be registered by each such member and describing the
proposed method of disposition thereof, and specifying the number of Registrable
Securities which each such member of such Significant Investor Group wishes to
dispose of pursuant to such Underwritten Offering; provided, that no Significant
Investor Group shall be permitted to register more than one-half of the
Registrable Securities held by the members of such Significant Investor Group.
(ii) At any time prior to the time that a Registration Statement as to
which notice has been given by the Company pursuant to this Section 1(b) has
been filed by the Company or, if filed, has been declared effective, the Company
may determine not to file, or may withdraw, such Registration Statement, in
either of which events the Company shall have no obligation pursuant to this
Section 1(b) to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such
proposed Registration Statement.
(c) Underwritten Offerings. In connection with any Underwritten Offering
as to which notice is given by the Company pursuant to Section 1(b) or if the
proposed method of disposition of Registrable Securities selected by the holders
of Registrable Securities under Section 1(a) is to be an Underwritten Offering:
(i) the Company shall request the underwriter(s) participating in such
offering to purchase and sell all Registrable Securities the disposition of
which pursuant to such Underwritten Offering shall have been requested by the
holders thereof in notices given pursuant to Section 1(a) or 1(b);
(ii) each holder of Registrable Securities giving a notice pursuant to
Section 1(a) or 1(b) agrees, by the giving of such notice, that if the
underwriter(s) desire(s) to purchase any of the requested Registrable Securities
by such holder to be purchased, such holder shall sell such Registrable
Securities to such underwriter(s) pursuant to an underwriting agreement to be
entered into by and among the Company, the underwriter(s), such holder and any
other holders of securities of the Company participating in such Underwritten
Offering, unless, upon written notice to the Company and the managing
underwriter given at least five days prior to the date that the Registration
Statement with respect to such offering is proposed to become effective, such
holder withdraws its Registrable Securities from such Underwritten Offering;
provided, however, that if the Registration Statement is amended in any way,
including without limitation amendments to the pricing information therein, or
requires recirculation for any reason, which such amendment or recirculation
results in a later proposed effective date of the Registration Statement, then
such holder of Registrable Securities shall be permitted to withdraw its
Registrable Securities from such Underwritten Offering upon written notice to
the Company and the managing underwriter given at least five days prior to such
later proposed effective date.
3
(iii) if the underwriter(s) elect(s) to purchase less than all
securities (including Registrable Securities) which it is requested to purchase
in connection with such offering, the Company shall use its best efforts to
cause purchases, if any, by such underwriter(s), (A) if such Underwritten
Offering is the result of a request for registration pursuant to Section 1(a),
first, of securities to be offered for the account of Persons other than the
Company requested by each such holder pursuant to Section 1(a) to be included in
the Underwritten Offering, to be made pro rata according to the number of
Registrable Securities requested by each such holder to be included in the
Underwritten Offering, and, second, of securities to be offered for the account
of the Company and (B) if such Underwritten Offering is the result of a
registration contemplated under Section 1(b), first, of securities to be offered
for the account of the Company, and, second, of securities to be offered for the
account of Persons other than the Company, to be made pro rata according to the
number of securities requested by each such holder to be included in the
Underwritten Offering;
(iv) if pursuant to Section 1(c)(iii), any of the Registrable
Securities requested by holders of Registrable Securities to be disposed of
pursuant to any Underwritten Offering shall not have been purchased by the
underwriter(s) thereunder, then such holders of Registrable Securities shall
have the right to distribute their remaining Registrable Securities in a
subsequent Underwritten Offering conducted in accordance with the provisions
hereof.
(d) Restrictions on Sale of Securities by Holder. Each holder of
Registrable Securities agrees, upon the written request of the Company or the
underwriter(s) in connection with the first Underwritten Offering, not to sell,
sell short, grant an option to buy, or otherwise dispose of shares of the
Company's Common Stock for a period of 120 days after the closing date of such
Underwritten Offering, to the extent timely so requested in writing by the
Company or such underwriter(s); provided, however, that nothing in this Section
1(d) shall be construed as to limit in any way the incidental registration
rights of any Significant Investor Group as described in Section 1(b).
The foregoing provision shall not apply to any holder of Registrable
Securities if such holder is prevented by applicable statute, regulation or
preexisting fiduciary duty from entering into any such agreement.
(e) Restrictions on Sale of Securities by the Company. The Company agrees
not to effect any public or private offer, sale or distribution of its equity
securities or any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for
such equity security, including a sale pursuant to Regulation D under the
Securities Act, during the 10-day period prior to, and during the 90-day period
(or such longer period, not exceeding 180 days, as is required by the
underwriter(s)) beginning on, the closing date of each Underwritten Offering
permitted pursuant to Section 7 or for such period as may be reasonably required
by the underwriter(s) in such Underwritten Offering, to the extent timely and
reasonably so requested in writing by the underwriter(s) (except as part of such
registration, if permitted, or pursuant to registrations on
4
Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any successor form to such Forms or pursuant to an
issuance of Common Stock of the Company where such Common Stock is exempted from
the Securities Act pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) thereof); provided, however,
that a private offer, sale or distribution of such securities shall be permitted
with the consent of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities
owned by the Investors to be disposed of in such Underwritten Offering, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Without limitation, the withholding
of such consent by the holders of Registrable Securities shall be deemed to be
reasonable if (A) such holders determine in good faith that the private offer,
sale or distribution of such securities proposed to be made by the Company would
have a material adverse effect on such Underwritten Offering and (B) such
withholding would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
(f) Amendments. Upon the occurrence of any event that would cause any
Registration Statement (i) to contain a material misstatement or omission or
(ii) not to be effective and usable for resale of Registrable Securities during
the period that such Registration Statement is required to be effective and
usable, the Company shall promptly file an amendment to the Registration
Statement, in the case of clause (i), correcting any such misstatement or
omission, and in the case of either clause (i) or (ii), using its best efforts
to cause such amendment to be declared effective and such Registration Statement
to become usable as soon as practicable thereafter.
2. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.
In connection with any Registration Statement and subject to the provisions
of Section 1 the Company shall use its best efforts to effect such registration
to permit the sale of the Registrable Securities being sold in accordance with
the intended method or methods of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto the
Company shall as expeditiously as possible:
(a) prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement relating
to the registration on any appropriate form under the Securities Act, which form
shall be available for the sale of the Registrable Securities being sold in

therewith (including, if required by the Securities Act or any regulation
thereunder, financial statements of any Subsidiary of the Company which shall
have guaranteed any indebtedness of the Company), cooperate and assist in any
filings required to be made with the NASD and use its best efforts to cause such
Registration Statement to become effective and approved by such governmental
agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the selling holders to
consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities; provided, that before
filing a Registration Statement or any Prospectus, or any amendments or
supplements thereto, the Company shall (i) furnish to the holders of the
Registrable Securities and the underwriter(s), if any, copies of all such
documents proposed to be filed, which documents shall be subject to the review
of such holders and (ii) make the Company's representative available for
discussion of such documents; and provided, further, the Company shall not file
any Registration Statement or amendment thereto or any Prospectus or any
supplement thereto to which either the holders of a
5
majority of Registrable Securities owned by the Investors and covered by such
Registration Statement or the underwriter(s), if any, shall reasonably object
within 10 Business Days after the receipt thereof. For purposes of the preceding
proviso, an objection made by a holder of the Registrable Securities or an
underwriter, if any, shall be deemed to be reasonable if, including without
limitation, the Registration Statement, amendment, Prospectus or supplement, as
applicable, as filed or proposed to be filed, contains a material misstatement
or omission;
(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and post-effective
amendments to the Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the

with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all
securities covered by such Registration Statement during the applicable period
in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution by the sellers
thereof set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to the
Prospectus;

and the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold agree
should be included therein relating to the plan of distribution of the
Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect
to the number of Registrable Securities being sold to such underwriter(s), the
purchase price being paid therefor and with respect to any other terms of the
offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; and make any

post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has become effective;
(ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments to the
Registration Statement or amendments or supplements to the Prospectus or for
additional information relating thereto;
6
(iii) if at any time the representations and warranties of the

reference therein untrue, or that requires the making of any additions to or
changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus in order to make the
statements therein not misleading; and
(v) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order or other order
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or any order issued
by any state securities commission or other regulatory authority suspending the

receive any such stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement, or any such order from a state securities commission or other
regulatory authority, the Company shall use its best efforts to obtain the
withdrawal or lifting of such order at the earliest possible time.
(e) furnish to each holder of the Registrable Securities and each of the
underwriter(s), if any, without charge, at least one complete conformed copy of
the Registration Statement, as first filed with the Commission, and of each
amendment thereto, including all documents incorporated by reference therein and

(i) use its best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by the

(j) if any fact or event contemplated by clause (d)(iv) above shall exist
or have occurred, prepare a supplement or post-effective amendment to the

delivered to the purchasers of Registrable Securities, the Prospectus will not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;
(k) provide a transfer agent and registrar (if the Company does not already

4. INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each holder of the
Registrable Securities and each Person, if any, who controls such holder within
the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange
Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
expenses (including, without limiting the foregoing but subject to Section 4(c),
the reasonable legal and other expenses incurred in connection with any action,
suit or proceeding or any claim asserted) arising out of or based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
Registration Statement or the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the
Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any
preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are caused directly by an untrue
statement or omission contained in information relating to such holder,
furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such holder expressly for
use therein. In connection with any Underwritten Offering permitted by Section
7, the Company shall also indemnify underwriters, if any, selling brokers,
dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in
the distribution, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such
Persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) to the
same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the
holders, if requested in connection with any Registration Statement.
(b) As a condition to the inclusion of its Registrable Securities in any
Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement, each holder thereof shall
furnish to the Company in writing, promptly after receipt of a request therefor,
such information as the Company may reasonably request for use in connection
with any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary prospectus (including
such completed and executed questionnaires as the Company may reasonably
request) and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, severally and not jointly,
11
the Company and its directors, its officers who sign such Registration
Statement, and any Person controlling the Company within the meaning of Section
15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as
the indemnity from the Company to each holder and Persons controlling such
holder, but only with reference to information relating specifically to such
holder furnished in writing by or on behalf of such holder expressly for use in
such Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any preliminary prospectus
included therein, and of which none of the Company, its directors, officers or
Affiliates has any actual or constructive knowledge independent of such holder;
provided, however, that such holder of Registrable Securities shall not be
liable in any such case to the extent that the holder has furnished in writing
to the Company prior to the filing of any such Registration Statement,
Prospectus or preliminary prospectus information expressly for use in such
Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary prospectus which corrected or
made not misleading information previously furnished to the Company, and the
Company failed to include such information therein. In case any action shall be
brought against the Company, any of its directors, any such officer, or any such
controlling Person based on the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any
preliminary prospectus and in respect of which indemnity may be sought against
one or more of the holders, such holders shall have the rights and duties given
to the Company by Section 4(c) (except that if the Company as provided in
Section 4(c) shall have assumed the defense thereof such holders shall not be
required to do so, but may employ separate counsel therein and participate in
the defense thereof but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at such
holder's expense) and the Company and its directors, any such officers, and any
such controlling Person shall have the rights and duties given to the holders by
Section 4(c). In no event shall the liability of any selling holder hereunder be
greater than the net proceeds (i.e., proceeds net of underwriting discounts,
fees, commissions and any other expenses payable by such selling holder)
received by such holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise
to such indemnification obligation.
(c) In case any action or proceeding (including any governmental or
regulatory investigation or proceeding) shall be brought against any current or
former holder of the Registrable Securities or any Person controlling such
holder, with respect to which indemnity may be sought against the Company
pursuant to Section 4(a), such holder or such Person controlling such holder
shall promptly notify the Company in writing and the Company shall assume the
defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to
such holder and payment of all fees and expenses relating thereto. Such holder
and such Persons controlling such holder shall have the right to employ separate
counsel in any such action or proceeding and participate in the defense thereof,
but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at such holder's expense
unless (i) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in
writing by the Company, which authorization shall not be unreasonably withheld,
(ii) the Company has not assumed the defense and employed counsel reasonably
satisfactory to such holder within 15 days after notice of any such action or
proceeding, or (iii) the named parties to any such action or proceeding
(including any impleaded parties) include both such holder or any Person
controlling such holder and the Company and such holder or any Person
controlling such holder shall have been advised by such counsel that there may
be one or more
12
legal defenses available to such holder or Person controlling such holder that
are different from or additional to those available to the Company and, in the
reasonable opinion of such counsel, could not be asserted by the Company's
counsel without creating a conflict of interest (in which case the Company shall
not have the right to assume the defense of such action or proceeding on behalf
of such holder or controlling Person, it being understood, however, that the
Company shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but
substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of
the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees
and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to all
local counsel which is necessary, in the good faith opinion of both counsel for
the indemnifying party and counsel for the indemnified party in order to
adequately represent the indemnified parties) for all such holders and
controlling Persons, which firm shall be designated in writing by the holders of
a majority of the Registrable Securities currently or formerly held by such
holders and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are
incurred upon written request and presentation of invoices). The Company shall
not be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without the written
consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but
if settled with the written consent of the Company or if there is a final
judgment for the plaintiff, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
such holder and all Persons controlling such holder from and against any loss or
liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. The Company shall not,
without the prior written consent of the holder, effect any settlement of any
pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any holder or any Person
controlling such holder is a party and indemnity has been sought hereunder by
such holder or any Person controlling such holder unless such settlement
includes an unconditional release of such holder or such controlling Person from
all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 4 is unavailable to
an indemnified party under paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) hereof in respect of any
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then each
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 and expenses (i) in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on
the one hand and the holders of the Registrable Securities on the other hand
from the original sale by the Company of the Registrable Securities, or (ii) if
the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law,
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on
the one hand and such holders on the other hand in connection with the
statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and such holders on the other
hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a
material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or
by such holders on the other hand and the parties' relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the
13
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses shall be deemed to include,
subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating
or defending any such action or claim.
(e) The Company and the holders of the Registrable Securities agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4 were
determined by a pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that
does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in subsection
(d) above. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of
the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to in subsection
(d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth
above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party
in connection with investigating any claim or defending any such action, suit or
proceeding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no holder of
the Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute an amount greater
than the net proceeds received by such holder with respect to the sale of
Registrable Securities giving rise to any indemnification or contribution
obligation under this Section 4. No person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.
5. RULE 144A. The Company hereby agrees with each holder of the
Registrable Securities for so long as any of the Registrable Securities remain
outstanding and during any period in which the Company is not subject to Section
13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, to make available to any beneficial owner of
Registrable Securities in connection with any sale thereof and any prospective
purchaser of such Registrable Securities from such beneficial owner, the
information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.
6. RULE 144. The Company agrees with each holder of Registrable
Securities to:
(a) comply with the requirements of Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act
with respect to current public information about the Company;
(b) use its best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all
reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and
the Exchange Act (at any time it is subject to such reporting requirements); and
(c) furnish to any holder of Registrable Securities upon request (i) a
written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the requirements of
said Rule 144(c) and the reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act (at any time it is subject to such reporting requirements), (ii) a
copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and (iii)
such other reports and documents of the Company as such holder may reasonably
request to avail itself of any similar rule or regulation of the Commission
allowing it to sell any such securities without registration.
14
7. PARTICIPATION IN UNDERWRITTEN OFFERINGS. No holder of the Registrable
Securities may participate in any Underwritten Offering hereunder unless such
holder (a) agrees to sell such holder's Registrable Securities on the basis
provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the 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; provided, that no holder of Registrable Securities included in any
Underwritten Offering shall be required to make any representations or
warranties to the Company or the underwriter(s) other than representations and
warranties regarding such holder and such holder's intended method of
distribution.
8. SELECTION OF UNDERWRITERS. In any Underwritten Offering of Registrable
Securities requested pursuant to Section 1(a), the investment banker(s) and
manager(s) that will administer the offering shall be selected by the holders of
a majority of the Registrable Securities with respect to which the request for
an Underwritten Offering was made under Section 1(a); provided, that, in either
case, such investment banker(s) and manager(s) must be reasonably acceptable to
the Company; and provided, further, that non-acceptance by the Company shall be
deemed reasonable if, inter alia, such investment banker(s) and manager(s) are
not of national stature and the Company's non-acceptance is on the basis that
such investment banker(s) and manager(s) are not of national stature; and
provided, further, that non-acceptance by the Company shall not be deemed
reasonable if, inter alia, such non-acceptance is on the basis that the Company
has entered into any agreement or contract (which agreement or contract the
Company entered into without the consent of the holders of a majority of the
Registrable Securities included in such offering) giving to specific investment
banker(s) and/or manager(s) the right to administer an Underwritten Offering.
