ARTICLE II

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 2.1 Demand Registration.

(a) At any time after the earlier of (x) the third anniversary of the date of this Agreement and (y) the first day on which the members of the Board that are independent under the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange, plus (without duplication) the members of the Board that are Series A Designees constitute less than a majority of the members of the Board, subject to the right of the Company under Section 2.1(f) and Section 2.3(j), upon written notice (a “Demand Notice”) by Holders owning a majority of the then outstanding Registrable Securities, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement covering the sale or distribution by the Holders by way of underwritten offering, block sale or any other distribution plan (other than pursuant to a merger, exchange offer or similar transaction) designated in such Demand Notice, but excluding any plan of distribution for offers and sales on a delayed or continuous basis that would require a “shelf” registration, of all of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered in such Demand Notice on Form S-3 (except if the Company 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 and shall provide for the registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by such Holders) in accordance with the foregoing (a “Demand Registration”) on or prior to the date that is thirty (30) days from the date of such Demand Notice (such date of actual filing, the “Filing Date”), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Demand Registration to be declared effective by the SEC as promptly as practical after the filing thereof.

(b) Once a Demand Registration is declared effective, the Company shall, subject to Section 2.1(f) and Section 2.3(j), use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Demand Registration to be continuously effective until the earlier of (A) the time that the Registrable Securities covered by such Demand Registration have been disposed of pursuant

thereto and (B) the date that is 180 days after the effective date of such Demand Registration (with respect to any Demand Registration, such period from initial effectiveness thereof until the earlier of the times specified in the immediately preceding clauses (A) and (B), the “Effectiveness Period”). In connection with each Demand Registration, the Company shall request effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement (and any post-effective amendments thereto) at 5:00 p.m., Eastern time (or such other time as may reasonably be requested by or on behalf of a majority in interest of the Holders participating in such registration), on the effective date and use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the Prospectus (or any supplements thereto), which delivery may be made electronically, by 8:00 a.m. Eastern time on the first Business Day after such effective date. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file the Prospectus with the SEC by 8:00 a.m. Eastern time on the first Business Day after such effective date.

(c) If any Demand Registration ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time during the applicable Effectiveness Period, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly cause such Demand Registration to again become effective under the Securities Act (including obtaining the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Demand Registration), and in any event shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, within thirty (30) days of such cessation of effectiveness, amend such Demand Registration in a manner reasonably expected to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Demand Registration or (ii) at the option of the Company, file an additional Registration Statement (a “Subsequent Registration”) for the purpose of effecting the offering and sale by Holders thereof by way of underwritten offering, block sale or any other distribution plan (other than pursuant to a merger, exchange offer or similar transaction) designated in the applicable Demand Notice of all securities that are Registrable Securities as of the time of such filing and included in the applicable Demand Notice. If a Subsequent Registration is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (x) cause such Subsequent Registration to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after such filing and (y) keep such Subsequent Registration (or another Subsequent Registration meeting the same criteria) continuously effective until the end of the applicable Effectiveness Period. Any such Subsequent Registration shall be a Registration Statement (other than a “shelf” registration statement for sales on a delayed or continuous basis) on Form S-3 to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Registration shall be on another appropriate form and shall provide for the registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by such Holders by way of underwritten offering, block sale or any other distribution plan (other than pursuant to a merger, exchange offer or similar transaction) designated in the applicable Demand Notice.

(d) The Company shall supplement and amend any Demand Registration or any Subsequent Registration if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such registration if required by the Securities Act or as reasonably requested by the Holders covered by such registration.

(e) If a Demand Notice delivered in accordance with Section 2.1(a) specifies that the sale of the Registrable Securities is intended to be conducted through an underwritten offering, the Holders of a majority of Registrable Securities included in such Demand Notice shall have the right to select the managing underwriter or underwriters to

administer the offering; provided, however, that such managing underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company. The Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Demand Notice and the Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement in such customary form as shall have been negotiated and agreed to by the Company with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.1, if the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering of the Registrable Securities advise the Board that in its or their good faith opinion the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Registration Statement and all other securities proposed to be sold in the offering contemplated thereby exceeds the number which can be sold in such underwritten offering without adversely affecting the success of such offering, in light of market conditions, the Registrable Securities and such other securities to be included in such underwritten Registration Statement shall be allocated, (i) first, up to the total number of securities the Holders have requested in the Demand Notice to be included in such Registration Statement (pro rata based upon the number of securities that each of them shall have so requested to be included in such offering), and (ii) only if all the securities referred to in clause (i) have been included, the number of securities that other holders with registration rights have proposed to include in such Demand Registration (pro rata based upon the number of securities that each of them shall have so requested to be included in such offering) that, in the opinion of the managing underwriter or underwriters can be so sold. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter or underwriters (provided that, if the managing underwriter or underwriters have provided such Holder with written notice of the date on which the applicable Registration Statement will become effective no later than five Business Days prior to such effectiveness date, such Holder’s written notice of such election must be given at least two Business Days prior to effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement). Any securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration.

(f) The Company shall not be required to effect a registration pursuant to this Section 2.1:

(i) after the Company has effected three (3) registrations pursuant to this Section 2.1, and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective or withdrawn (the “Maximum Demand Registrations”), provided that a registration will count for this purpose only if (A) all Registrable Securities requested to be registered are registered and (B) such Registration Statement becomes effective or is withdrawn at the request of a majority in interest of the Holders initiating such registration (other than a withdrawal because, at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders have learned of material adverse information concerning the Company not known to the Holders at the time of their request for such registration and have withdrawn their request for registration with reasonable promptness after learning of such material adverse information);

(ii) if the Company has effected a registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 within the preceding six (6) months, and such registration has been declared or ordered effective or withdrawn at the request of a majority in

interest of the Holders initiating such registration (other than a withdrawal because, at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders have learned of material adverse information concerning the Company not known to the Holders at the time of their request for such registration and have withdrawn their request for registration with reasonable promptness after learning of such material adverse information and other than a withdrawal in light of market conditions that Holders have reasonably determined are likely to adversely affect the success of the offering to which such registration relates); or

(iii) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required under the Securities Act.

Section 2.2 Piggyback Registration.

(a) If, at any time when there are Registrable Securities then outstanding, there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities (other than a registration statement relating to a rights offering or on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of or merger with any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with the Company’s equity incentive or other employee benefit plans), and even if there is such an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities, in the event that such offering for its own account or the account of others is to be underwritten, then the Company shall deliver to each Holder a written notice of such determination, and if, within ten (10) days after the date of the delivery of such notice, any such Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in such registration statement all or any part of any Registrable Securities such Holder requests to be registered. The Company shall have the right to postpone, terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 2.2 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration.

(b) The right of any Holder to registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 in connection with an underwritten offering shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. Each Holder proposing to distribute its securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into and perform such Holder’s obligations under an underwriting agreement with the managing underwriter(s) selected for such underwriting by the Company or other holder of securities having the right to select such managing underwriter(s) (such underwriting agreement to be in the form negotiated by the Company). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.2, if the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering with respect to which Holders of Registrable Securities have exercised their piggyback registration rights advise the Board in writing that in its or their good faith opinion the number of

Registrable Securities requested to be included in the offering thereby and all other securities proposed to be sold in the offering exceeds the number which can be sold in such underwritten offering without adversely affecting the success of such offering, in light of market conditions, the Registrable Securities and such other securities to be included in such underwritten offering shall be allocated, (i) first, up to the total number of securities that the Company has requested to be included in such registration, if such registration has been initiated by the Company, or that any other holder of securities has requested to be included in such registration, if such registration has been initiated by such other holder, and (ii) second, and only if all the securities referred to in clause (i) have been included, all other securities proposed to be included in such offering by Holders and other holders with registration rights (pro rata based upon the number of securities that each of them shall have so requested to be included in such offering) that, in the opinion of the managing underwriter or underwriters, can be sold without having such adverse effect. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter (provided that, if the managing underwriter(s) have provided such Holder with written notice of the date on which the applicable Registration Statement will become effective no later than five (5) Business Days prior to such effectiveness date, such Holder’s written notice of such election must be given at least two (2) Business Days prior to effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement). Any securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration.

Section 2.3 Registration Procedures. In connection with the Company’s registration obligations under Section 2.1 and Section 2.2, the Company will keep each Holder participating in such registration reasonably informed as to the status thereof and the Company will:

(a) prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement with respect to such securities in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and, in the case of a Demand Registration, keep such Registration Statement effective for the applicable Effectiveness Period;

(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements to such Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statements as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement pursuant to the manner of distribution contained therein and, in the case of a Demand Registration, as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective for the applicable Effectiveness Period;

(c) furnish to the Holders participating in such registration and to their legal counsel copies of the Registration Statement proposed to be filed, and provide such Holders and their legal counsel the reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such Registration Statement;

(d) furnish to the Holders participating in such registration and to the underwriters of the securities being registered such reasonable number of copies of the

Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final Prospectus in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as such underwriters or Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public offering of such securities and the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by them that are included in such registration;

(e) use commercially reasonable efforts to notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement at any time when a Prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the Company’s knowledge of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or incomplete in the light of the circumstances then existing, and, subject to Section 2.3(j), at the request of any such Holder, prepare promptly and furnish to such Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such Prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchaser of such shares, such Prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or incomplete in the light of the circumstances then existing;

(f) use commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such Registration Statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions;

(g) make available for inspection by any Holder participating in such registration, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration, and any attorney or accountant retained by any such Holder or underwriter, all relevant financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers and directors to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Holder, underwriter, attorney or accountant in connection with such Registration Statement; provided, however, that such Holder or underwriter shall agree to hold in confidence and trust all information so provided pursuant to a confidentiality agreement in form and substance customary under the circumstances (such confidentiality agreement to include a provision that such Holder or underwriter, as the case may be, shall be responsible for any unauthorized disclosure by the attorneys or accountants of such Holder or underwriter unless such Holder did not use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such underwriter to execute such a confidentiality agreement);

(h) in the event that the Registrable Securities are being offered in an underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement and participate and cooperate with the underwriters in connection with any road show or marketing activities customary for an underwritten public offering;

(i) use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being

sold through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated as of such date, of the legal counsel representing the Company (which may be in-house counsel, if acceptable to the managing underwriters selected for such underwritten offering) for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and (ii) a letter dated as of such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters;

(j) notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the Board has determined in good faith that the filing or effectiveness of (i) a registration statement for any Demand Registration would cause disclosure of any financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or other transactions or development involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries that is or would be material to the Company and that, in the reasonable good faith judgment of the Board, such disclosure would not at the time be in the best interests of the Company or (ii) the disclosure necessary for continued use of any Prospectus and Registration Statement by the Holders could be materially detrimental to the Company, the Company shall have the right not to file or not to cause the effectiveness of any registration covering any Registrable Securities and to suspend the use of the Prospectus and the Registration Statement covering any Registrable Security for such period of time as its use would be materially detrimental to the Company by delivering written notice of such suspension to all Holders listed on the Company’s records; provided, however, that in any twelve (12)-month period the Company may exercise the right to such suspension not more than twice and for not more than forty-five (45) days in each such exercise provided, further, in the case of any registration statement for any Demand Registration pursuant to clause (i) above, that the Company shall not register any other capital stock during such forty-five (45) day period (other than a registration on Form S-8 or Form S-4 or relating to the issuance or sale of securities to employees of the Company pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or similar plan or to a merger or acquisition or other transaction to which Rule 145 under the Securities Act is applicable).

All expenses (other than underwriting discounts and commissions incurred in connection with registrations, which discounts and commissions shall be borne by the Holders of the securities so registered pro rata on the basis of the number of shares so registered) incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to this ARTICLE II, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, shall be borne by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.1 if the registration request is

subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered or the Holders withdraw a majority of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration statement (in which case all participating Holders shall reimburse the Company any expenses incurred therewith and bear such expenses pro rata based upon the number of Registrable Securities that were to be registered in the withdrawn registration) unless (a) the withdrawal is based upon material adverse information concerning the Company of which the Holders initiating the request were not aware at the time of such request or (b) the Holders of a majority of Registrable Securities initiating the request agree to forfeit their right to one requested registration pursuant to Section 2.1, in which event such right shall be forfeited by all Holders. Except as provided above, all other expenses incurred by any Holder in connection with a registration requested pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.2, including fees and disbursements of counsel for the selling Holder or Holders, shall be borne by such Holder or Holders incurring such expenses.

Section 2.5 Prospectus Delivery Requirements; Discontinued Disposition.

(a) Each Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the Prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement.

(b) By its acquisition of Registrable Securities, each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of (i) a Proceeding, (ii) the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose, (iii) any event or passage of time that makes the financial statements included in a Registration Statement ineligible for inclusion therein or any statement made in a Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to a Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of a Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any 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, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (iv) any pending corporate development with respect to the Company that the Company believes may be material and that, in the determination of the Company, makes it not in the best interest of the Company to allow continued availability of a Registration Statement or Prospectus, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities under a Registration Statement until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus (as it may have been supplemented or amended) may be resumed. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed as promptly as is practicable.

Section 2.6 Indemnification.

(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will, with respect to any Registrable Securities which are included in a Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.2, indemnify each Holder, each Holder’s officers, directors, partners and members, and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act,

and each underwriter thereof, if any, and each person who controls any such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Parties”), against all expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities, joint or several, or actions in respect thereof, arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus, preliminary prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or any violation (or alleged violation) by the Company of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, Exchange Act or state or federal securities laws applicable to the Company in connection with any such registration, and the Company will reimburse each of the Company Indemnified Parties for any reasonable out-of-pocket legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred and within thirty (30) days after a request for reimbursement has been received by the Company together with supporting documentation. The indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.6 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), nor shall the Company be liable to a Holder in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action (1) to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a violation or alleged violation of any state or federal law (including any claim arising out of or based on any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission in the Registration Statement or Prospectus) which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by or on behalf of such Holder or (2) in the case of a sale directly by a Holder of Registrable Securities (including a sale of such Registrable Securities through any underwriter retained by such Holder engaging in a distribution solely on behalf of such Holder), such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was corrected in a final or amended Prospectus, and such Holder failed to deliver a copy of the final or amended Prospectus at or prior to the confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities to the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability in any case in which such delivery is required by the Securities Act.

(b) To the extent permitted by law, each Holder will, with respect to any Registrable Securities which are included in a Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.2, indemnify, severally and not jointly, the Company, each of its directors, officers, partners and members, each underwriter, if any, of the Company’s securities covered by such a registration, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, and each other Holder and each of such Holder’s officers, directors, partners and members who have signed the Registration Statement and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act (collectively, the “Holder Indemnified Parties”), against all expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus, preliminary prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to

make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or any violation by such Holder of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, Exchange Act or state securities law applicable to such Holder and will reimburse each of the Holder Indemnified Parties for any reasonable out-of-pocket legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such Registration Statement, Prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein, provided, however, that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 2.6(b) payable by a Holder exceed the amount by which the net proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities included in such registration exceeds the amount of any other losses, expenses, settlements, damages, claims and liabilities that such Holder has been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. The indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.6 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the applicable Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), nor shall the Holder be liable for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action where such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was corrected in a final or amended Prospectus, and the Company or the underwriters failed to deliver a copy of the final or amended Prospectus at or prior to the confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities to the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability in any case in which such delivery is required by the Securities Act

(c) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 2.6 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought (including any governmental action), and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided, however, that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense; provided further, however, that an Indemnified Party (together with all other Indemnified Parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnifying Party, if representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to conflicting interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 2.6 if, but only to the extent that, the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial or harmful to an Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such action. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. The indemnity agreements

contained in this Section 2.6 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.6 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party, other than pursuant to its terms, with respect to any claim, loss, damage, liability or action referred to therein, then, subject to the limitations contained in Section 2.6(e), the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such claim, loss, damage, liability or action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the actions that resulted in such claims, loss, damage, liability or action, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party 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 related to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.6(d) were based solely upon the number of entities from whom contribution was requested or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 2.6(d). In no event shall any Holder’s contribution obligation under this Section 2.6(d) exceed the amount of the net proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities included in such registration.

(e) No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions of Section 2.6, the provisions in the underwriting agreement will control; provided, however, that to the extent such underwriting agreement does not address a matter addressed by this Agreement, that failure to address such matter shall not be deemed a conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the underwriting agreement.

(g) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 2.6(g) shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement, and otherwise.

Section 2.7 Information by Holders, Etc. The Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder or Holders and their Affiliates, the Registrable Securities held by them and the distribution proposed by such Holder or Holders as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that the obligations of the Company

under Section 2.1 and Section 2.2 are conditioned on the timely provisions of the foregoing information by such Holder or Holders and, without limitation of the foregoing, will be conditioned on compliance by such Holder or Holders with the following:

(a) such Holder or Holders will cooperate with the Company in connection with the preparation of the applicable Registration Statement, and for so long as the Company is obligated to keep such Registration Statement effective, such Holder or Holders will provide to the Company, in writing and in a timely manner, for use in such Registration Statement (and expressly identified in writing as such), all information regarding themselves and such other information as may be required by applicable law to enable the Company to prepare such Registration Statement and the related Prospectus covering the applicable Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders and to maintain the currency and effectiveness thereof;

(b) during such time as such Holder or Holders may be engaged in a distribution of the Registrable Securities, such Holder or Holders will comply with all laws applicable to such distribution, including Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act, and, to the extent required by such laws, will, among other things: (i) not engage in any stabilization activity in connection with the securities of the Company in contravention of such laws; (ii) distribute the Registrable Securities acquired by it solely in the manner described in the applicable Registration Statement; and (iii) if required by applicable law, cause to be furnished to each agent or broker-dealer to or through whom such Registrable Securities may be offered, or to the offeree if an offer is made directly by such Holder or Holders, such copies of the applicable Prospectus (as amended and supplemented to such date) and documents incorporated by reference therein as may be required by such agent, broker-dealer or offeree, provided, however, that the Company shall have provided such Holder or Holders with an adequate number of copies thereof;

(c) such Holder or Holders shall permit the Company and its representatives and agents to examine such documents and records and will supply in a timely manner any information as they may be reasonably request to provide in connection with the offering or other distribution of Registrable Securities by such Holder or Holders; and

(d) on receipt of written notice from the Company of the happening of any of the events specified in Section 2.3(j), or that requires the suspension by such Holder or Holders of the distribution of any of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders, then such Holders shall cease offering or distributing the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders until the offering and distribution of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders may recommence in accordance with the terms hereof and applicable law.

Section 2.8 Assignability; Transfer Restrictions.

(a) During the Standstill Period and thereafter, the Investor will not, and shall cause each member of the Investor Group not to, without the prior consent of the Company (as approved by the Board, to the knowledge of the Investor), transfer any Company Common Stock or Synthetic Long Positions other than (i) to an Affiliated Entity, so long as such Affiliated Entity agrees in writing, a copy of which writing is provided to the Company at the time of

transfer, to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and that it shall immediately transfer all Company Common Stock or Synthetic Long Positions and all rights and obligations hereunder to the Investor or another Affiliated Entity at such time that it ceases to be an Affiliated Entity (any such transferee a “Permitted Transferee”), (ii) in connection with a third party tender or exchange offer, merger or similar transaction recommended, approved by or not opposed by the Board, (iii) in an open market transaction or a Registration Statement or otherwise (other than in contravention of the immediately-preceding clause (ii)); provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Investor may not transfer any shares of Class A Common Stock or Synthetic Long Positions to any Person pursuant to the immediately-preceding clause (iii) that, together with the Affiliates of such Person and others with whom such Person or its Affiliates are part of any “group” as such term is used in Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, would, to the Investor’s knowledge, immediately after such transfer and other transactions to be effected in connection therewith and known to the Investor, beneficially own Company Common Stock and/or Synthetic Long Positions representing, in the aggregate, more than five percent (5%) of the then-outstanding shares of Company Common Stock.

(b) The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this ARTICLE II may be assigned (but only with all related obligations), in whole or in part, by a Holder to a Permitted Transferee (in accordance with clause (i) of Section 2.8(a), so long as the Company is, promptly after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned. If any of the Registrable Securities are transferred or assigned by a Holder to a Permitted Transferee in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then, upon request by the transferring Holder, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (at the earliest opportunity practicable) to enable such Permitted Transferee to resell such transferred or assigned Registrable Securities using the Registration Statement filed and made effective pursuant to this Agreement and the related Prospectus by filing a post-effective amendment or, if applicable, Prospectus supplement, naming such Permitted Transferee as a selling stockholder under such Registration Statement and Prospectus.

(c) The Company acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement, the Investor and any Affiliated Entity may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of its Class A Common Stock to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and that agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement, so long as such pledge is made pursuant to a senior credit facility or senior debt securities of the Investor or any of the Affiliated Entities on the same terms as all or substantially all of the assets of the Investor and the Affiliated Entities are so pledged, and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, the Investor and any Permitted Transferee may transfer pledged or secured shares of Class A Common Stock to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no notice shall be required of such pledge. At the expense of the Investor or the applicable Permitted Transferee, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of shares of Class A Common Stock may

reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of such shares, including, if the shares are subject to registration pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, the preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act or other applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of selling stockholders thereunder.

Section 2.9 Reporting Status and Public Information. During each Effectiveness Period, the Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) timely file all documents with the SEC required to be filed by it, (b) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times, (c) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act and (d) so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to such Holder, upon any reasonable request, a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with Rule 144, and of the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents of the Company as such Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing a Holder to sell any such securities without registration.

Section 2.10 Termination of Rights. The rights of any particular Holder to cause the Company to register securities under this ARTICLE II shall terminate with respect to such Holder upon the earlier of the date upon which (i) all of such Holder’s shares are no longer Registrable Securities or such Holder, if not the Investor, is no longer an Affiliated Entity or (ii) the Company is no longer reporting, or subject to reporting requirements, under the Exchange Act; provided that, with respect to a termination under this clause (ii), such rights shall revive and become effective upon the Company again reporting, or being subject to reporting requirements, under the Exchange Act.
