Exhibit 10.1



REGISTRATION AGREEMENT

THIS REGISTRATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of August 16, 2016, is made by and among (i) Townsquare Media, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), (ii) Madison Square Garden Investments, LLC (the “Investor”), and (iii) each of the other Persons signatory hereto and each other Person who, at any time, acquires securities of the Company and (a) executes a counterpart of this Agreement or (b) otherwise agrees to be bound by this Agreement, in each of the case of (a) and (b), with the written consent of the Investor (such Persons, together with each other Person identified as an “Other Securityholder” on the Schedule of Securityholders attached hereto, the “Other Securityholders”). The Investor and the Other Securityholders are collectively referred to herein as the “Securityholders.” Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings set forth in Section 9 below. As set forth in Section 10(i) below, this Agreement, together with that certain letter agreement, dated as of the date hereof, between the Company and the Investor, setting forth the Investor’s observation rights with respect to meetings of the Company’s Board of Directors, embodies the complete agreement and understanding of the Company and the Securityholders with respect to the subject matter hereof and the Securityholders are neither party to, nor beneficiaries of, any other agreement with the Company, including the Existing Registration Agreement.

In consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:

1. Demand Registrations.

(a) Requests for Registration. At any time on or after the third anniversary of the date hereof, the holders of a majority of the Investor Registrable Securities may request registration under the Securities Act of all or part of their Registrable Securities on Form S-1 or any similar long-form registration (“Long-Form Registrations”) or, if available, on Form S-3 (including pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act) or any similar short-form registration (“Short-Form Registrations”). All registrations requested pursuant to this Section 1(a) are referred to herein as “Demand Registrations”; provided, however, that a Demand Registration may only be made if the sale of the Investor Registrable Securities requested to be registered by the holders of a majority of the Investor Registrable Securities is reasonably expected to result in a sale of at least 750,000 shares of Class A Common Stock. Each request for a Demand Registration shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered and the anticipated per share price range for such offering and whether the Demand Registration will be underwritten. Within ten (10) days after receipt of any such request, the Company shall give written notice of such requested registration to all other holders of Registrable Securities and, subject to Section 1(d), will include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein from such Persons within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of the Company’s notice.

(b) Demand Registrations. The holders of a majority of the Investor Registrable Securities shall be entitled to request two (2) Demand Registrations. Demand Registrations will be Short-Form Registrations whenever the Company is permitted use any applicable short form. The Company may satisfy its obligations under Section 1(a) hereof by amending (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any registration statement previously filed by


the Company under the Securities Act, so that such amended registration statement will permit the disposition of all of the Registrable Securities for which a request for Demand Registration has been properly made under Section 1(a) hereof. If the Company so amends a previously filed registration statement and such amendment becomes effective under the Securities Act and the Company otherwise complies with the requirements of this Agreement, it will be deemed to have effected a registration for purposes of Section 1(a) hereof.

(c) Priority on Demand Registrations. If a Demand Registration is an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that, in their opinion, the number of Registrable Securities and, if permitted hereunder, other securities requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number of Registrable Securities and other securities, if any, which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within the price range acceptable to the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities initially requesting such registration, the Company will include in such registration, (i) first, (a) the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration and (b) any other securities of the Company required to be included in such registration pursuant to the terms of the Existing Registration Agreement, in each case that, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold in an orderly manner within such price range, pro rata among the respective holders thereof on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities owned by each such holder, and (ii) second, other securities requested (and permitted) to be included in such registration, if any, that, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold in an orderly manner within such price range, pro rata among the holders of such securities on the basis of the number of such securities owned by each such holder.

(d) Restrictions on Demand Registrations. The Company shall not be obligated to effect any Demand Registration within 180 days after the effective date of a previous Demand Registration or a previous registration in which the holders of Registrable Securities were given the right to piggyback pursuant to Section 2. The Company may postpone for up to six months the filing or the effectiveness of, or suspend the use of, a registration statement for a Demand Registration if the Company determines in good faith that such Demand Registration would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company or its business or on any proposal or plan by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to acquire financing, sell any securities, engage in any acquisition of assets (other than in the ordinary course of business) or engage in any merger, consolidation, tender offer, reorganization, other significant business transaction or any similar transaction or if the Company determines in good faith that such Demand Registration hereunder would reasonably be expected to interfere with a proposed or planned registration pursuant to an Existing Registration Agreement; provided that, in such event, the Company shall pay all Registration Expenses of the Investor if the Investor is unable to effect the proposed sale under a Demand Registration during the six month period immediately following the end of such postponement solely due to market conditions. The aggregate length of time that a Demand Registration may be delayed pursuant this Section 1(d) shall not exceed six months in any twelve month period.

(e) Selection of Underwriters. The holders of a majority of the Investor Registrable Securities included in any Demand Registration shall have the right to select the investment banker(s) and managing underwriter(s) to administer the offering, subject to the consent of the Company and the right of any party to an Existing Registration Agreement to approve such selection, which, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld.

2. Piggyback Registrations.

(a) Right to Piggyback. Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its equity securities (including any proposed registration of the Company’s securities by any third party) under the

2


Securities Act (other than (i) pursuant to a Demand Registration, which is governed by Section 1 or (ii) pursuant to a registration on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor or similar forms), whether or not for sale for its own account, and the registration form to be used may be used for the registration of Registrable Securities (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall give prompt written notice to all holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to effect such a registration and will include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein from such Persons within five (5) business days after the receipt of the Company’s notice.

(b) Priority on Primary Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary registration on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that, in their opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Company, then the Company shall include in such registration (i) first, (a) the securities the Company proposes to sell and (b) any other securities of the Company required to be included in such registration pursuant to the terms of the Existing Registration Agreement that, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold in an orderly manner within such price range, (ii) second, to the extent permitted by the Existing Registration Agreement, securities requested to be included in such registration pursuant to the terms of the Existing Registration Agreement, if any, that, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold in an orderly manner within such price range, pro rata among the holders of such securities on the basis of the number of such securities owned by each such holder, (iii) third, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration, if any, that, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold in an orderly manner within such price range, pro rata among the respective holders thereof on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities owned by each such holder, and (iv) fourth, other securities requested (and permitted) to be included in such registration, if any, that, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold in an orderly manner within such price range, pro rata among the holders of such securities on the basis of the number of such securities owned by each such holder.

(c) Priority on Secondary Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten secondary registration on behalf of holders of the Company’s securities other than holders of Registrable Securities (it being understood that secondary registrations on behalf of holders of Registrable Securities are addressed in Section 1 rather than this Section 2(c)), and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that, in their opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to the holders of a majority of the securities initially requested to be included in such registration, then the Company shall include in such registration (i) first, the securities requested to be included therein by the holders requesting such registration that, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold in an orderly manner within such price range, pro rata among the holders of such securities and the holders of such securities on the basis of the number of securities owned by each such holder (ii) second, upon the consent of the holders requesting such registration, if applicable, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration that, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold in an orderly manner within such price range, pro rata among the holders of such securities and the holders of such Registrable Securities on the basis of the number of securities owned by each such holder, and (iii) third, other securities requested (and permitted) to be included in such registration, if any, that, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold in an orderly manner within such price range.

3. Holdback Agreements.

(a) Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees that in connection with any Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration (whether such registration occurs before or after the third anniversary

3

of the date hereof) that is an underwritten public offering of the Company’s equity securities, whether or not such holder is participating in such offering, he, she or it shall not (i) offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of (including sales pursuant to Rule 144), directly or indirectly, any equity securities of the Company (“Securities”) (including Securities which may be deemed to be owned beneficially by such holder in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission), or any securities, options, or rights convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Securities (“Other Securities”), (ii) enter into a transaction which would have the same effect as described in clause (i) of this Section 3(a), (iii) enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences or ownership of any Securities or Other Securities, whether such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such Securities or Other Securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iv) publicly disclose the intention to enter into any transaction described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above, from the date on which the Company gives notice to the holders of Registrable Securities that a preliminary prospectus has been circulated for the underwritten public offering to the date that is 90 days following the date of the final prospectus for such underwritten public offering (in each case, or such longer period as agreed to by the underwriters designated as “book-runners” managing such registered public offering), unless such book- runners otherwise agree in writing (such period, the “Holdback Period”); provided that the holdback obligations set forth in this Section 3(a) shall not be effective or shall be reduced, as applicable, if, in any underwritten offering, the managing underwriter indicates in writing to the Company that such holdback obligations are not necessary or may be shortened in the applicable Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to its securities that are subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of such period. The holdback obligations set forth in this Section 3(a) will automatically terminate upon any release or termination of such holdback obligations for the holders of a majority of shares included in such Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration to which such Holdback Period relates.

(b) In addition to the holdback obligations provided for in Section 3(a) above, in connection with any underwritten public offering of the Company’s equity securities, each holder of Registrable Securities agrees to enter into any lockup or similar agreement requested by the underwriters managing the registered public offering; provided, that in no event shall such lockup or similar agreement provide for a holdback period that is longer than the duration of the Holdback Period as determined pursuant to Section 3(a) above.

(c) The Company agrees not to effect any Public Sale or distribution of its equity securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the seven days prior to and during the 60 day period beginning on the effective date of any Demand Registration (except as part of such underwritten registration or pursuant to registrations on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor form) unless the underwriter managing the registered public offering otherwise agrees.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not include in any underwritten Demand Registration any portion of Registrable Securities held by any officers or employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries the inclusion of which the underwriter of such Demand Registration determines is likely to adversely affect such offering.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, except in the case of (i) a transfer to the Company or (ii) a Public Sale which does not violate Sections 3(a) or 3(b) (clauses (i) and (ii), a “Permitted Transfer”), prior to transferring any Registrable Securities to any Person not already a party to this Agreement (including by operation of law), the transferring Securityholder shall cause the prospective transferee to execute and deliver to the Company a counterpart of this Agreement thereby agreeing to be bound by the terms hereof. Any transfer or attempted transfer of any Registrable Securities in violation of

4

any provision of this Agreement shall be void ab initio, and the Company shall not record such transfer on its books or treat any purported transferee of such securities as the owner of such securities for any purpose. Other than in the case of a Permitted Transfer, whether or not any such transferee has executed a counterpart hereto, such transferee shall be subject to the obligations of the transferor hereunder.

(f) Each certificate evidencing any Securities or Other Securities held by a Securityholder and each certificate issued in exchange for or upon the transfer of any such securities (unless such securities are permitted to be transferred pursuant to this Agreement and, if such securities were Registrable Securities, would no longer be Registrable Securities after such transfer) shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form (together with any other legend that may be required pursuant to applicable law or the Company’s certificate of incorporation or other organizational documents):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ORIGINALLY ISSUED ON AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNDER ANY OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND LAWS OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM.


IN ADDITION, THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND OTHER PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN THE REGISTRATION AGREEMENT DATED AS OF AUGUST 16, 2016, AMONG THE COMPANY AND CERTAIN OF THE COMPANY’S SECURITYHOLDERS, AS AMENDED AND MODIFIED FROM TIME TO TIME PURSUANT TO ITS TERMS. A COPY OF SUCH REGISTRATION AGREEMENT WILL BE FURNISHED WITHOUT CHARGE BY THE COMPANY TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST.

The Company shall imprint such legend on certificates evidencing Securities and Other Securities outstanding prior to the date hereof. The legend set forth above shall be removed from the certificates evidencing any securities which are transferred pursuant to a Permitted Transfer.

4. Registration Procedures. Whenever the holders of Registrable Securities have requested that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and pursuant thereto the Company will as expeditiously as possible:

(a) in accordance with the Securities Act and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, prepare and (within sixty (60) days after the end of the period within which requests for registration may be given to the Company) file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and thereafter use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable thereafter (provided that before filing a registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company shall furnish to the counsel selected by the holders of a majority of the Investor Registrable

5

Securities covered by such registration statement copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents, in the case of a Demand Registration, shall be subject to the review and comment of counsel for the holders requesting such Demand Registration);

(b) notify in writing each holder of Registrable Securities of the effectiveness of each registration statement filed hereunder and prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for a period of either (i) not less than six months (subject to extension pursuant to Section 7(b) and, in the case of a Demand Registration hereunder, subject to further extension by the number of days during which (x) the use of a registration statement is suspended pursuant to Section 1(d) hereof and (y) a holder of Registrable Securities is prevented from selling equity securities under a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 3 hereof) or, if such registration statement relates to an underwritten offering, such longer period as in the opinion of counsel for the underwriters a prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales of Registrable Securities by an underwriter or dealer or (ii) such shorter period as will terminate when all of the securities covered by such registration statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement (but in any event not before the expiration of any longer period required under the Securities Act), and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement until such time as all of such securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement;

(c) furnish to each seller of Registrable Securities thereunder such number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus), each Free Writing Prospectus and such other documents as such seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller;

(d) use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any seller reasonably requests and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller (provided that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 4(d), (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (iii) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction);

(e) notify in writing each seller of such Registrable Securities (i) promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the date and time when such registration statement and each post-effective amendment thereto has become effective or a prospectus or supplement to any prospectus relating to a registration statement has been filed and when any registration or qualification has become effective under a state securities or blue sky law or any exemption thereunder has been obtained, (ii) promptly after receipt thereof, of any request by the Securities and Exchange Commission for the amendment or supplementing of such registration statement or prospectus or for additional information, and (iii) at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement (x) contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made or (y) is otherwise not legally available to support sales of Registrable Securities;


6

(f) prepare and file promptly with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and notify such holders of Registrable Securities prior to the filing of, such amendments or supplements to such registration statement or prospectus as may be necessary to correct any statements or omissions if, at the time when a prospectus relating to such securities is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, any event has occurred as the result of which any such prospectus or any other prospectus as then in effect would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, in case any of such holders of Registrable Securities or any underwriter for any such holders is required to deliver a prospectus at a time when the prospectus then in circulation is not in compliance with the Securities Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare promptly upon request of any such holder or underwriter such amendments or supplements to such registration statement and prospectus as may be necessary in order for such prospectus to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act and such rules and regulations;

(g) cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed;

(h) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of such registration statement;

(k) take all reasonable actions to ensure that any Free-Writing Prospectus utilized in connection with any Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration hereunder complies in all material respects with the Securities Act, is filed in accordance with the Securities Act to the extent required thereby, is retained in accordance with the Securities Act to the extent required thereby and, when taken together with the related prospectus, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(l) otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least 12 months beginning with the first day of the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the registration statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder;

(m) use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a registration statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use

7

of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any securities included in such registration statement for sale in any jurisdiction, and in the event of the issuance of any such stop order or other such order the Company shall advise such holders of Registrable Securities of such stop order or other such order promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts promptly to obtain the withdrawal of such order;
(n) obtain one or more comfort letters, dated the effective date of such registration statement (and, if such registration includes an underwritten public offering, dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement and addressed to the underwriters), from the Company’s independent public accountants in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by comfort letters as the underwriters in such offering may reasonably request; and

(o) provide a legal opinion of the Company’s outside counsel, dated the effective date of such registration statement (or, if such registration includes an underwritten public offering, dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement), with respect to the registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included therein (including the preliminary prospectus) and such other documents relating thereto in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by such opinions, which opinions shall be addressed to the underwriters. The Company may require each seller of Registrable Securities as to which any registration is being effected to furnish the Company such information regarding such seller and the distribution of such securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing.

5. Registration Expenses.
    
(a) All expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with any Demand Registration pursuant to this Agreement, including all registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, printing expenses, travel expenses, filing expenses, messenger and delivery expenses, fees and disbursements of custodians, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and of all independent certified public accountants, underwriters including, if necessary, a “qualified independent underwriter” within the meaning of the rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. and, and other Persons retained by the Company or by the holders of Investor Registrable Securities or their Affiliates on behalf of the Company (all such expenses being herein called “Registration Expenses”), shall be borne by the holders of Registrable Securities. In the case of a Piggyback Registration, the foregoing Registration Expenses shall be paid by the Company or another third party in accordance with the provisions of any agreement between the Company and any of its stockholders. In the case of a Demand Registration where a holder of securities not party to this Agreement is entitled to participate pro rata with holders of Registrable Securities in such registration and both (i) does participate with holders of Registrable Securities in such Demand Registration and (ii) as a result of such participation, the amount of Registrable Securities that holders of Registrable Securities are permitted to include in such registration is reduced pursuant to the underwriter cutback provision of Section 1(c), then the proportion of Registration Expenses to be paid by holders of Registrable Securities in such registration shall equal the proportion of Registrable Securities included in such registration by holders of Registrable Securities compared to the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration by such holders and the remaining portion of Registration Expenses shall be paid by the Company or another third party in accordance with the provisions of any agreement between the Company and any of its stockholders. Holders of Registrable Securities shall not bear any Registration Expenses incurred solely as a result of a holder of securities not party to this Agreement participating in any Demand Registration (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Securities and Exchange Commission filing fees related to including such other securities in a Demand Registration).

8

(b) The Company shall pay its internal expenses (including all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit or quarterly review, the expense of any liability insurance and the expenses and fees for listing the securities to be registered on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed. Each Person that sells securities pursuant to a Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration hereunder shall bear and pay all underwriting discounts and commissions applicable to the securities sold for such Person’s account.

(c) In connection with each Demand Registration and each Piggyback Registration, the fees and disbursements of any counsel chosen by the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration shall be borne by such holders of Registrable Securities.

(d) Each holder of securities included in any registration hereunder shall pay those Registration Expenses allocable hereunder to the registration of such holder’s securities so included, and any Registration Expenses not so allocable shall be borne by all sellers of securities included in such registration in proportion to the aggregate selling price of each seller’s securities to be so registered.

6. Indemnification.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each holder of Registrable Securities, its officers, directors, managers, agents, and employees and each Person who controls such holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) (each an “Indemnitee” and, collectively, the “Indemnitees”) against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, together with reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), to which such Indemnitee may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of, are based upon, are caused by or result from (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained (A) in any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or (B) in any application or other document or communication (in this Section 6 collectively called an “application”) executed by or on behalf of the Company or based upon written information furnished by or on behalf of the Company filed in any jurisdiction in order to qualify any securities covered by such registration statement under the “blue sky” or securities laws thereof, or (ii) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and the Company will reimburse each such Indemnitee for any legal or any other expenses incurred by him, her or it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, expense, liability, action or proceeding; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to any such Person to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of, is based upon, is caused by or results from an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission, made in such registration statement, any such prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any application, in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information prepared and furnished to the Company by such holder expressly for use therein. In connection with an underwritten offering, the Company shall indemnify the underwriters, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the holders of Registrable Securities.

(b) In connection with any registration statement in which a holder of Registrable Securities is participating, each such holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such registration statement

9

or prospectus and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall indemnify and hold harmless the other holders of Registrable Securities and the Company, and their respective directors, officers, managers, agents and employees and each other Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, together with reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), to which such indemnified party may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of, are based upon, are caused by or result from (i) any untrue statement of material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or in any application or (ii) any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is made in such registration statement, any such prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any application, in each case, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information prepared and furnished to the Company by such holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify will be several and not joint, as to each holder and will be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement.

(c) Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any Person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim.

(d) The indemnifying party shall not, except with the approval of each indemnified party, 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 each indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation without any payment or consideration provided by such indemnified party.

(e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable to or is insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under the provisions above in respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other hand 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 faults referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative benefit of the Company on the one hand and of the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other in connection with the registration statement or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

10

The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) to the Company bear to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) to the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the sellers of Registrable Securities or other sellers participating in the registration statement and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(f) The Company and the sellers of Registrable Securities agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the sellers of Registrable Securities were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph 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. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, no seller of Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds received by such seller from the sale of Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement filed pursuant hereto. 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.

(g) The indemnification and contribution by any such party provided for under this Agreement shall be in addition to any other rights to indemnification or contribution which any indemnified party may have pursuant to law or contract and will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made or omitted by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party and will survive the transfer of securities.

7. Participation in Underwritten Registrations.

(a) No Person may participate in any registration hereunder which is underwritten unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Person or Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements (including pursuant to the terms of any over-allotment or “green shoe” option requested by the managing underwriter(s), provided that no holder of Registrable Securities will be required to sell more than the number of Registrable Securities that such holder has requested the Company to include in any registration) and (ii) 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 registration shall be required to make any representations or warranties to the Company or the underwriters (other than representations and warranties regarding such holder and such holder’s intended method of distribution) or to undertake any indemnification obligations to the Company or the underwriters with respect thereto, except as otherwise provided in Section 6 hereof.

(b) Each Person that is participating in any registration hereunder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 4(e),

11

such Person will forthwith discontinue the disposition of its Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement until such Person’s receipt of the copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus as contemplated by Section 4(e); provided that the Company shall cause the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to this Section 7 to and including the date when each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement shall have received the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 4(e) (the “Suspension Period”) not to exceed 180 days in any twelve-month period. In the event the Company shall give any such notice, the applicable time period mentioned in Section 4(b) during which a Registration Statement is to remain effective shall be extended by the number of days during the Suspension Period.

8. Current Public Information. The Company shall file all reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, and will take such further action as any holder or holders of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required to enable such holders to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act (as such rule may be amended from time to time, “Rule 144”) or any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(b) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company will not hereafter enter into any agreement with respect to its securities which is inconsistent with or violates the rights granted to the holders of Registrable Securities in this Agreement. Except as provided in this Agreement, the Company shall not grant to any Persons the right to request the Company to register any equity securities of the Company, or any securities, options, or rights convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for such securities, which rights are inconsistent with the rights granted hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement is intended to be consistent with, and not to violate, the Existing Registration Agreement. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms
of this Agreement and the Existing Registration Agreement, such Existing Registration Agreement shall control and the terms of such Existing Registration Agreement shall supersede the terms included herein to the extent of any conflict.

(c) Adjustments Affecting Registrable Securities. The Company will not take any action, or permit any change to occur, with respect to its securities which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the holders of Registrable Securities to include such Registrable Securities in a registration undertaken pursuant to this Agreement or which would adversely affect the marketability of such Registrable Securities in any such registration (including effecting a stock split, combination of shares or other recapitalization).

(d) Remedies. Any Person having rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically to recover damages caused by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement and that any party may in its sole discretion apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction (without posting any bond or other security) for specific performance and for other injunctive relief in order to enforce or prevent violation of the provisions of this Agreement.

(e) Additional Parties; Amendments and Waivers. Other than as provided in Section 10(g) hereof, no Person may become party to this Agreement without the written consent of the Oaktree Parties. Except as otherwise provided herein, no modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective against the Company or the holders of Registrable Securities unless such modification, amendment or waiver is set forth in writing and approved in writing by (x) the Company and holders of a majority of the Investor Registrable Securities and (y) the Oaktree Parties; provided that no such amendment or modification that would adversely affect the rights, preferences or privileges of any class or group of Other Registrable Securities in a manner disproportionate to the effect of such amendment or modification on the rights, preferences or privileges of holders of Investor Registrable Securities (without regard to any effect resulting from the individual circumstances of any holder of such class or group of Other Registrable Securities) shall be effective against any holder whose rights, preferences or privileges are so affected thereby without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of each class or group of Other Registrable Securities so affected; provided further, that no amendment or modification of any provision of this Agreement that materially increases the obligations of any holder of Registrable Securities shall be effective against such holder unless such modification or amendment is approved in writing by such holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Section 6 (Indemnification) and this Section 10(e) (Amendments and Waivers) may only be amended, modified or waived by a written instrument signed by holders of at least sixty-six and two thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the Registrable Securities (except (i) for the first proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, which would require the written consent of the holders of a majority of each class or group of Other Registrable Securities so affected, and (ii) for the

16

second proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, which would require the written consent of each such affected holder). No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement, or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute a waiver of any such breach or any other covenant, duty, agreement, or condition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an amendment or modification of this Agreement to add a party hereto and to grant such party registration rights will be effective against the Company and all holders of Registrable Securities if such modification, amendment or waiver is approved in writing by the Company (as applicable) and the holders of a
majority of the Investor Registrable Securities. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and shall not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every provision in accordance with its terms.

(f) Securityholder Status. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary that may be set forth herein, at such time as any Securityholder ceases to hold any Registrable Securities, such Securityholder shall be deemed to no longer be a Securityholder for purposes of this Agreement and shall no longer be entitled to the rights or subject to the obligations of a Securityholder as set forth herein.

(g) Successors and Assigns; Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto (and the Persons specifically identified in Section 6) and their respective successors and assigns. In addition, and whether or not any express assignment shall have been made, the provisions of this Agreement which are for the benefit of the holders of Registrable Securities (or any portion thereof) as such shall be for the benefit of and enforceable by any subsequent holder of any Registrable Securities (or of such portion thereof); provided, that such subsequent holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to execute a joinder to this Agreement agreeing to be bound by its terms.

(h) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or the effectiveness or validity of any provision in any other jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

(i) Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this document embodies the complete agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and preempts any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way, including without limitation the Existing Registration Agreement.

(j) Counterparts; Facsimile Signature. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together will constitute one and the same Agreement. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile signature.

(k) Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement.


17

(l) Governing Law. All issues and questions concerning the relative rights and obligations of the Company and the Securityholders under this Agreement and the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

(m) Consent to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the State of Delaware and the state courts of the State of Delaware for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby. Each of the parties hereto further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by United States certified or registered mail to such party’s respective address set forth in Section 10(a) and the Schedule of Securityholders attached hereto, or such other address or to the attention of such other person as the recipient party has specified by prior written notice to the sending party, shall be effective service of process in any action, suit or proceeding in the State of Delaware with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction as set forth above in the immediately preceding sentence. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in the United States District Court for the State of Delaware or the state courts of the State of Delaware and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(n) Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial. Because disputes arising in connection with complex transactions are most quickly and economically resolved by an experienced and expert person and the parties wish applicable state and federal laws to apply (rather than arbitration rules), the parties desire that their disputes be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws. Therefore, to achieve the best combination of the benefits of the judicial system and of arbitration, each party to this Agreement hereby waives all rights to trial by jury in any action, suit or proceeding brought to resolve any dispute between or among any of the parties hereto, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, arising out of, connected with, related or incidental to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(o) Business Days. If any time period for giving notice or taking action hereunder expires on a day which is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday in the state in which the Company’s chief-executive office is located, the time period shall automatically be extended to the business day immediately following such Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.
