The Company shall notify the Shareholders in writing of the existence of any suspension event set forth in this Section 3.1, and such notice and all facts and circumstances relating to such suspension event shall be kept confidential by the Shareholders.

4.1 Registration Procedures. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to:

(a) cause the Registration Statement to remain effective until the earlier of (i) the one-year anniversary of the issuance of the Shares and (ii) the completion of the distribution described in the Registration Statement;

5

(b) furnish the Shareholders and their counsel, at such times so as to permit their reasonable review, the opportunity to review the Registration Statement, the prospectus included therein, and each amendment thereof or supplement thereto, and to consider in good faith incorporating any comments reasonably requested by the Shareholders and their counsel, provided that the Shareholders’ and their counsels’ review of such documents shall not delay the filing of the registration statement so long as such parties have been provided a reasonable time to review the same;

(f) enter into customary agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company;

(g) notify the Shareholders of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in the 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 in light of the circumstances then existing and, at the request of any Shareholder, promptly prepare and furnish to such Shareholder 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 purchasers of Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing; provided that, upon receipt of such notice from the Company, the Shareholders will forthwith discontinue disposition of their Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement until the Shareholders receive the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus covering the Registrable Securities (and the Shareholders shall return to the Company all copies of the unsupplemented or unamended prospectus covering the Registrable Securities);

ARTICLE V

INDEMNIFICATION

5.1 Indemnification by the Company. In the event of any registration of any Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement under the Securities Act, the Company will indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse each participating Shareholder, each of the directors, officers, employees, managers, stockholders, partners, members, counsel, agents, trustees or representatives of such Shareholder and its Affiliates and each Person who controls any such Person, if any (collectively, “Shareholder Indemnified Parties”), against any Registration Expenses, Non-Registration Expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the participating Shareholder or any such Person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise (collectively, “Losses”), insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based on any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (a “Misstatement/Omission”), under which the Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act, in any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, and shall reimburse such Shareholder Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Losses; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Losses or expense arises out of or is based upon a Misstatement/Omission made in the Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company by any participating Shareholder. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any such participating Shareholder and shall survive the transfer of such securities by the Shareholder.

5.2 Indemnification by Participating Shareholders. Each of the participating Shareholders whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement, as a condition to including Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement, hereby agrees, to indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section 5.1) the Company, each of its

7

directors, officers, employees, managers, stockholders, counsel, agents or representatives and the Company’s Affiliates and each Person who controls any such Person within the meaning of the Securities Act, with respect to any Losses that arise out of or are based on any Misstatement/Omission, from such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, if such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company by any participating Shareholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligation to indemnify will be individual (several and not joint) to each Shareholder and will be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such Shareholder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any such director or officer and shall survive the transfer of such securities by any participating Shareholder.

5.3 Notices of Claims. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in Section 5.1 or 5.2, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action; provided, however, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under Sections 5.1 or 5.2, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action is brought against an indemnified party, unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense of such action, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified to the extent that it may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, that the indemnified party may participate in such defense at the indemnified party’s expense, and provided, further, that all indemnified parties shall have the right to employ one counsel to represent them if, in the reasonable judgment of such indemnified parties, it is advisable for them to be represented by separate counsel by reason of having legal defenses which are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, and in that event the reasonable fees and expenses of such one counsel shall be paid by the indemnifying party. If the indemnifying party is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim, it will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for the indemnified parties 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 indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of such additional counsel for the indemnified parties. No indemnifying party shall consent

8

to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement without the consent of the indemnified party 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. No indemnifying party shall be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its written consent. The indemnifying party’s liability to any such indemnified party hereunder shall not be extinguished solely because any other indemnified party is not entitled to indemnity hereunder.

5.4 Survival. The indemnification provided for under this Agreement will (i) remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party, (ii) survive the transfer of securities and (iii) survive the termination of this Agreement.

5.5 Contribution. If, for any reason, the foregoing indemnity is unavailable, or is insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of the expense, loss, claim, damage or liability 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 (determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the expense, loss, claim, damage or liability referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other means of allocation, unless such contribution takes into account the equitable considerations referred to in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.5, a Shareholder shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which (i) the amount at which the securities that were sold by such Shareholder and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds (ii) the amount of any damages which such Shareholder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such Misstatement/Omission or violation. No indemnified party guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any indemnifying party who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

ARTICLE VI

INFORMATION BY PARTICIPATING SHAREHOLDER

6.1 Information Regarding Participating Shareholders and their Affiliates. The Shareholders shall promptly furnish to the Company such information regarding such Shareholder and the distribution proposed by such Shareholder and its

9

Affiliates as the Company reasonably believes may be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement.

ARTICLE VII

RULE 144 SALES

7.1 Reporting. With a view to making available to the Shareholders the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may permit the sale of Registrable Securities to the public without registration or through short form registration forms, the Company agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act; and

(b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

ARTICLE VIII

RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER

8.1 Restrictions on Transferability.

(a) The Registrable Securities held by the Shareholders may be Transferred, in whole or in part, to any Person, provided that:

(i) there is in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed Transfer and such Transfer is made in accordance with such registration statement; or

(ii) such Transfer is eligible under Rule 144 or such Transfer is otherwise made in accordance with applicable securities law, and (A) the Shareholders shall have notified the Company of the proposed Transfer and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed Transfer, provided that such detailed statement is kept confidential and is not disclosed to any other Person until prior written consent from the Shareholder is given which explicitly authorizes the disclosure of the information in such detailed statement, or (B) the Shareholders provide the Company and the Company’s transfer agent with a legal opinion from independent internationally recognized legal counsel experienced in such matters, which legal opinion shall be in customary form reasonably acceptable to the Company and shall state that such Transfer is eligible under Rule 144 or is otherwise made in accordance with applicable securities laws.

(b) Any proposed Transfer of any Registrable Securities held by any Shareholder to a Known Competitor of the Company, including the circumstances

10

surrounding such proposed Transfer, shall be disclosed in writing to the Company 10 days before such proposed Transfer is effected.

(c) Each Shareholder is aware of the following Telephone Interpretation in the SEC Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations (July 1997):

A.65. Section 5

An issuer filed a Form S-3 registration statement for a secondary offering of common stock which is not yet effective. One of the selling shareholders wanted to do a short sale of common stock “against the box” and cover the short sale with registered shares after the effective date. The issuer was advised that the short sale could not be made before the registration statement becomes effective, because the shares underlying the short sale are deemed to be sold at the time such sale is made. There would, therefore, be a violation of Section 5 if the shares were effectively sold prior to the effective date.

(d) The Company is required to refuse to register any transfer of the Shares which is not made in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act, pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption therefrom.

8.2 Restrictions on Sales During Registration Periods. In addition to the restrictions set forth in Section 8.1, each Shareholder agrees not to, except with respect to a 100% Affiliate of an Ultimate Parent that (a) remains a 100% Affiliate of such Ultimate Parent and (b) agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, offer, sell (including pursuant to Rule 144), distribute, sell short, loan, grant an option for the purchase of, enter into any swap or hedge agreement in connection with, or otherwise Transfer any Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock, during the 15 days prior to and the 180 days after the effective date of any underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities, unless the Company’s Board of Directors and the underwriters managing such public offering otherwise agree. The Shareholders shall not take any action with respect to any distribution deemed to be made pursuant to the Registration Statement that would constitute a violation of Regulation M under the Exchange Act

8.3 No Participation in Other Securities Offerings. The rights granted by the Company hereunder shall be the exclusive rights granted to Shareholders with respect to Registrable Securities. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Shareholders shall have no rights to participate in any offering of securities by the Company to third parties, whether such offering is effected pursuant to registration under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration thereunder.

11

ARTICLE IX
