Rule 415; Cutback. If at any time the SEC takes the position that the offering of some or all of the Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement is not eligible to be made on a delayed or continuous basis under the provisions of Rule 415 under the 1933 Act or requires any Investor to be named as an “underwriter,” the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to advocate before the SEC its reasonable position that the offering contemplated by such Registration Statement is a valid secondary offering and not an offering “by or on behalf of the issuer” as defined in Rule 415 and that none of the Investors is an “underwriter.” The Investors shall have the right to select one legal counsel to review and oversee any registration or matters pursuant to this Section 2(e), including participation in any meetings or discussions with the SEC regarding the SEC’s position and to comment on any written submission made to the SEC with respect thereto, which counsel shall be designated by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities. In the event that, despite the Company’s commercially reasonable efforts and compliance with the terms of this Section 2(e), the SEC does not alter its position, the Company shall (i) remove from such Registration Statement such portion of the Registrable Securities (the “Cut Back Shares”) and/or (ii) agree to such restrictions and limitations on the registration and resale of the Registrable Securities as the SEC may require to assure the Company’s compliance with the requirements of Rule 415 (collectively, the “SEC Restrictions”); provided, however, that the Company shall not agree to name any Investor as an “underwriter” in such Registration Statement without the prior written consent of such Investor. Any cut-back imposed on the Investors pursuant to this Section 2(e) shall be allocated among the Investors on a pro rata basis and shall be applied first to any of the Registrable Securities of such Investor as such Investor shall designate, unless the SEC Restrictions otherwise require or provide or the Investors otherwise agree. No liquidated damages shall accrue as to any Cut Back Shares until such date as the Company is able to effect the registration of such Cut Back Shares in accordance with any SEC Restrictions applicable to such Cut Back Shares (such date, the “Restriction Termination Date”). From and after the Restriction Termination Date applicable to any Cut Back Shares, all of the provisions of this Section 2 (including th...

If at any time the Staff takes the position that the offering of some or all of the Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement is not eligible to be made on a delayed or continuous basis under the provisions of Rule 415 under the Securities Act or requires any Purchaser to be named as an “underwriter,” the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to persuade the Commission that the offering contemplated by the Registration Statement is a valid secondary offering and not an offering “by or on behalf of the issuer” as defined in Rule 415 and that none of the Purchasers is an “underwriter.” In the event that, despite the Company’s reasonable best efforts and compliance with the terms of this Section 10.2, the Staff refuses to alter its position, the Company shall (i) remove from the Registration Statement such portion of the Registrable Securities (the “Cut Back Securities”) and/or (ii) agree to such restrictions and limitations on the registration and resale of the Registrable Securities as the Staff may require to assure the Company’s compliance with the requirements of Rule 415 (collectively, the “SEC Restrictions”); provided, however, that the Company shall not agree to name any Purchaser as an “underwriter” in such Registration Statement without the prior written consent of such Purchaser. Any cutback imposed on the Purchasers pursuant to this Section 10.2 shall be allocated among the Purchasers on a pro rata basis, unless the SEC Restrictions otherwise require or provide or the Purchasers otherwise agree.
Rule 415; Cutback.

Upon reasonable objection by the Investor’s counsel, no such written submission shall be made to the Commission. In the event that, despite the Company’s reasonable efforts and compliance with the terms of this Section 2.4, the Commission refuses to alter its position, the Company shall (a) remove from the Registration Statement such portion of the Registrable Securities, and/or (b) agree to such restrictions and limitations on the registration and resale of the Registrable Securities as the Commission may require to assure the Company’s compliance with the requirements of Rule 415.
Rule 415; Cutback.

Rule 415; Cutback. Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Agreement, if in the case of any Registration hereunder for an offering of securities to be made on a delayed or continuous basis in accordance with Rule 415 under the 1933 Act, the SEC informs the Company that all of the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the SEC for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement in accordance with the SEC Guidance, including without limitation, Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 612.09. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the SEC or any SEC guidance sets forth a limitation on the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular registration statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Company used its commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the SEC for the registration of all or a greater portion of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing by a holder of Registrable Securities as to its Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such registration statement will be reduced to the maximum number of securities which the SEC permits to be registered therein (which reduction shall not result in any violation of this Agreement) as follows: (a) in the case of a Registration other than a Piggyback Offering, in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 5.1(c), and (b) in the case of a Piggyback Offering, in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 5.2(c).

From and after such date as the Company is able to effect the registration of such Cut Back Shares in accordance with any Commission Restrictions applicable to such Cut Back Shares, all of the provisions of this Article 2 (including the Company’s obligations with respect to the filing of a Registration Statement and its obligations to use reasonable best efforts to have such Registration Statement declared effective within the time periods set forth herein) shall again be applicable to such Cut Back Shares; provided, however, that the Filing Deadline for the Registration Statement including such Cut Back Shares shall be 30 Business Days after such Restriction Termination Date.

Rule 415; Cutback. In the event that the Company is unable to register for resale under Rule 415 all of the applicable Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2(a) due to limits imposed by the Commission’s interpretation of Rule 415 (a “Rule 415 Cutback”), then the Company shall be obligated to include in such Registration Statement only such limited portion of such Registrable Securities as the Commission shall permit. Any exclusion of such Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata among the Holders in proportion to the number of such Registrable Securities held by such persons; provided, however, that the Shell Shares shall be omitted from such Registration Statement or any subsequent registration statement prior to the omission of any Registrable Securities. In the event that any Holder shall deliver to the Company a written request for registration at any time after the later of (x) the date which is six months after the Effective Date of the Registration Statement that was filed pursuant to this Section 2, or (y) the date on which all such Registrable Shares registered in any and all prior Registration Statements filed pursuant to this Section 2 hereof are sold, the Company shall file, within 30 days following the date of receipt of such written request, an additional Registration Statement registering any of such Registrable Shares that were omitted from any prior Registration Statement.
