DEMAND REGISTRATION (a) RIGHT TO DEMAND. At any time after the Hold Period Termination Date, one or more Holders of the Notes shall have the right to make a written request (such request, if in compliance with the requirements hereof, a "DEMAND NOTICE") to the Issuer to register all or part of such Holders' Registrable Notes under and in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act, which request must specify (i) the aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Registrable Notes to be registered, and (ii) the intended method of disposition thereof. Within 15 days after receipt of a Demand Notice, the Issuer will send written notice of such Demand Notice to all Holders of Registrable Notes who did not participate in the Demand Notice, and the Issuer will include in such registration all Registrable Notes of such other Holders with respect to which the Issuer has received written requests for inclusion therein within 10 Business Days after the receipt by the applicable Holder of the Issuer's written notice. As soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, but in no event later than the Demand Filing Deadline, the Issuer will cause to be filed a Registration Statement covering such Registrable Notes that the Issuer has been so requested to register providing for the registration under the Securities Act of such Registrable Notes so to be registered in accordance with the intended method of distribution specified in the Demand Notice (a "DEMAND REGISTRATION STATEMENT"). Such Registration Statement shall be on Form S-1 or any other appropriate form permitting registration of such Registrable Notes. The Issuer shall not permit any securities other than the Registrable Notes to be included in a Registration Statement without the consent of the Holders of a majority of the principal amount of the Notes to be registered in such Registration Statement. The Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any such Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as practicable after the date on which such Registration Statement is filed (such date, the "FILING DATE"), but not later than the Effectiveness Date and to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective for 90 days from the actual date of its effectiveness (subject to extension pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 5) (the "TERMINATION DATE"), or such shorter period ending when all Registrable Notes covered by such Registration Statement have been sold in the manner set forth and as contemplated in such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at any time, the Issuer may (i) delay the filing of any Registration Statement or extend the Offering Memorandum 4 Deadline or (ii) delay or suspend (a) the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or (b) the use of any Offering Memorandum, in either case of clause (i) or clause (ii) for a reasonable period of time, but not in excess of an aggregate of 90 days in any consecutive twelve month period, if the Board of Managers of the Issuer determine in good faith that the filing of any such Registration Statement (or effectiveness or the continuing effectiveness thereof) or the circulation of an Offering Memorandum (or any other use thereof) would require the disclosure of non-public material information that, in the reasonable judgment of the Board of Managers of the Issuer, would be detrimental to the Issuer if so disclosed or would otherwise materially adversely affect a financing, acquisition, disposition, merger or other material transaction. (b) EFFECTIVENESS OF REGISTRATIONS. For purposes of Section 4(b), the Issuer shall not be deemed to have effected a Registration under this Agreement in connection with any Registration Statement or Offering Memorandum with respect to which the Holders have withdrawn or cancelled their Demand Notice or a Rule 144A Notice (i) at any time prior to the filing of a Registration Statement or the completion of preparation of a preliminary Offering Memorandum, as the case may be, in respect of such request or, (ii) in the case of an Underwritten Offering, at any time following the failure of any condition to the obligation of the underwriters to effect such offering (other than any such failure which is caused by any action or failure to act on the part of any or all of the Holders). No such withdrawal or cancellation shall affect the Holders' obligation, if any, to pay the expenses described in Section 6. In addition, if after a Registration Statement is initially declared effective by the SEC, such Registration Statement is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or any other governmental agency or court, such Registration Statement shall be deemed not to have become effective for purposes of this Agreement. (c) SUPPLEMENTS AND AMENDMENTS. The Issuer shall promptly supplement and amend a Registration Statement if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used for such Registration Statement, if required by the Securities Act. 3. ADDITIONAL INTEREST (a) The Issuer agrees that the Holders of Registrable Notes will suffer damages if the Issuer fails to fulfill its obligations under Section 2 or Section 8 hereof (except as a result of the failure of the Holders or any underwriters to fulfill their obligations hereunder) and that it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision. Accordingly, the Issuer agrees to pay, as liquidated damages, additional interest on Registrable Notes ("ADDITIONAL INTEREST") under the circumstances and to the extent set forth below (each of which shall be given independent effect): (i) if a Demand Registration Statement has not been filed on or prior to its Demand Filing Deadline, then commencing on the day after such Demand Filing Deadline, Additional Interest shall be accrued on the Registrable Notes to be covered by such Demand Registration Statement over and above the accrued interest at a rate of .25% per annum on the Accreted 5 Value of such Registrable Notes for the first 90 days immediately following such Demand Filing Deadline, such Additional Interest rate increasing by an additional .25% per annum on the Accreted Value of such Registrable Notes at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period; (ii) if such Demand Registration Statement has not been declared effective on or prior to such Effectiveness Date, then commencing on the day after such Effectiveness Date, Additional Interest shall be accrued on the Registrable Notes included in such Demand Registration Statement over and above the accrued interest at a rate of .25% per annum on the Accreted Value of such Notes for the first 90 days immediately following the day after such Effectiveness Date, such Additional Interest rate increasing by an additional .25% per annum on the Accreted Value of such Registrable Notes at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period; (iii) if a Demand Registration Statement has been declared effective and such Demand Registration Statement ceases to be effective at any time prior to the Termination Date, then Additional Interest shall be accrued on the Registrable Notes affected thereby over and above any other accrued interest at a rate of .25% per annum on the Accreted Value of such Notes for the first 90 days commencing on the day such Registration Statement ceases to be effective, such Additional Interest rate increasing by an additional .25% per annum on the Accreted Value of such Demand Registrable Notes at the beginning of each such subsequent 90-day period; (iv) if a preliminary Offering Memorandum has not been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 8 on or prior to its Offering Memorandum Deadline, then commencing on the day after such Offering Memorandum Deadline, Additional Interest shall be accrued on the Registrable Notes to be covered by the Rule 144A Resale proposed in such Rule 144A Notice over and above the accrued interest at a rate of .25% per annum on the Accreted Value of such Registrable Notes for the first 90 days immediately following such Offering Memorandum Deadline, such Additional Interest rate increasing by an additional .25% per annum on the Accreted Value of such Registrable Notes at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Additional Interest rate on any Note may not exceed at any one time in the aggregate 1.0% per annum on the Accreted Value of such Registrable Notes; PROVIDED, FURTHER that Additional Interest shall not accrue if the failure of the Issuer to comply with its obligations hereunder is a result of the failure of the Holders or any underwriters to fulfill their obligations hereunder; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that (1) upon the filing of a Registration Statement (in the case of (i) above), (2) upon the effectiveness of a Registration Statement (in the case of (ii) above), (3) upon the effectiveness of a substitute Registration Statement (in the case of (iii) above), or (4) upon the preparation of a preliminary Offering Memorandum in accordance with the provisions of Section 8 (except with respect to the requirement that such Offering Memorandum be prepared on or before the Offering Memorandum 6 Deadline) (in the case of (iv) above), Additional Interest on such Registrable Notes as a result of such clause shall cease to accrue. (b) The Issuer shall notify the Trustee within one Business Day after each and every date on which an event occurs in respect of which Additional Interest is required to be paid. Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to Section 3(a) will accrue semi-annually on each July 1, and January 1 (each an "ADDITIONAL INTEREST PAYMENT DATE"), commencing with the first such date occurring after any such Additional Interest commences to accrue. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. On any Additional Interest Payment Date, to the extent any Additional Interest shall have accrued during the period from the previous Additional Interest Payment Date (the "INTEREST PERIOD") due to the occurrence during such Interest Period of an event described in Section 3(a), the Issuer shall issue a note or notes to the holders on the Additional Interest Payment Date substantially in the form of Exhibit A to the Indenture. The Accreted Value of such notes shall be equal to the Additional Interest accrued during such Interest Period and shall otherwise have the same terms as the Notes. 4. REGISTRATIONS (a) UNDERWRITTEN REGISTRATIONS. If any of the Registrable Notes covered by a Registration Statement or Offering Memorandum are to be sold in an Underwritten Offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will manage the offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Registrable Notes included in such offering and reasonably acceptable to the Issuer. (b) NUMBER OF REGISTRATIONS. The Issuer shall be obligated to effect up to five (5) Registrations (whether pursuant to Section 2(a) or Section 8) in the aggregate pursuant to this Agreement. 5. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES In connection with the obligations of the Issuer pursuant (i) to Section 2 hereof, the Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause a Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective as provided herein, and (ii) to Section 8 hereof, the Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to prepare a preliminary and a final Offering Memorandum, and in each case (and to the extent applicable to the preparation of a preliminary and a final Offering Memorandum pursuant to Section 8), without limiting generality of the foregoing, the Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to, as expeditiously as possible: (a) Before filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or 7 supplements thereto (not including documents that would be incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference), afford the Holders of the Registrable Notes covered by a Registration Statement, their counsel and the managing underwriters, if any, an opportunity to review, promptly, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, and such Holders shall have the opportunity to object to any information pertaining to the Holders and their plan of distribution that is contained therein and the Issuer will make the corrections reasonably requested by such Holders prior to filing any such Registration Statement, Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Issuer shall not be required to afford such Holders an opportunity to review a copy of (i) any such document that has not been materially changed from a copy of such document that such person was previously afforded an opportunity to review and (ii) any amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or Prospectus which are made solely as a result of any filing by the Issuer of reports required to be filed pursuant to the Exchange Act.

In the event the Issuer shall 13 give any such notice, the Termination Date shall be extended by the number of days during such periods from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when each seller of Registrable Notes covered by such Registration Statement (or Offering Memorandum) shall have received the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus (or Offering Memorandum) contemplated by Section 5(c) or the Advice. 6. EXPENSES All fees and expenses (including any underwriting discounts and commissions) incident to the performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Issuer (except fees and expenses of the Issuer (but not of a holder, underwriter, initial purchaser or placement agent) relating to its obligation under Section 5(o)(v) to market the Registrable Notes, which expenses shall be borne by the Issuer) shall be borne by the Holders, and shall constitute a joint and several obligation of each of them, whether or not a Registration Statement is filed or becomes effective or an Offering Memorandum is printed (except with respect to any particular Registration Statement or Offering Memorandum where the Issuer failed to use its reasonable best efforts to fulfill its obligations under the first paragraph of Section 5 with respect to such Registration Statement or Offering Memorandum), including, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including, without limitation, (A) fees with respect to filings required to be made with the NASD in connection with an Underwritten Offering and (B) fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or Blue Sky laws (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with Blue Sky qualifications of the Registrable Notes and determination of the eligibility of the Registrable Notes for investment under the laws of such jurisdictions as provided in Section 5(h) hereof), (ii) the expenses relating to printing, word processing and distributing such Registration Statement, Offering Memoranda, Prospectuses, underwriting agreements, indentures and any other documents necessary in order to comply with this Agreement, (iii) reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Issuer (iv) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Holders and counsel for the underwriters, if any, (v) reasonable fees and disbursements of all independent certified public accountants referred to in Section 5(o)(iii) for services in connection with this Agreement and in connection with the preparation of Registration Statements and Offering Memoranda required hereby (including, without limitation, the expenses of any special audit and "cold comfort" letters required by or incident to such performance), (vi) the reasonable fees and expenses of any special experts retained by the Issuer in connection with a Registration Statement or an Offering Memorandum, (vii) the fees and expenses of any "qualified independent underwriter" or other independent appraiser participating in an offering pursuant to Schedule E to the By-laws of the NASD, (viii) rating agency fees, and (ix) any fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the securities to be registered on any securities exchange, and the obtaining of a rating of the securities, in each case, as applicable. 14 7. INDEMNIFICATION (a) The Issuer, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Registrable Notes, the affiliates, officers, directors, representatives, employees and agents of each such Person, and each Person, if any, who controls any such Person within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, a "PARTICIPANT"), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, judgments, liabilities and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable legal fees and other expenses actually incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted) caused by, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or Prospectus or Offering Memorandum (as amended or supplemented if the Issuer shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary Prospectus or Offering Memorandum, or caused by, arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the case of the Prospectus or Offering Memorandum in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Issuer will not be liable for any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission in such Registration Statement, Prospectus or Offering Memorandum that was (i) made by the Issuer in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Issuer by the selling Holders or the underwriters for use in such Registration Statement, Prospectus or Offering Memorandum, or (ii) corrected by the Issuer in an amended or supplemented Registration Statement, Prospectus or Offering Memorandum if the Person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability purchased Registrable Notes which are the subject thereof from such Participant in reliance upon such inaccurate Prospectus or Offering Memorandum but was not sent or given a copy of the corrected Prospectus or Offering Memorandum (as amended or supplemented) at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Registrable Notes, to such Person, unless such failure to deliver such corrected Prospectus or Offering Memorandum (as amended or supplemented) was a result of noncompliance by the Issuer with Section 5 of this Agreement or (iii) contained in any Prospectus or Offering Memorandum that the Participant delivered and was not permitted to use in accordance with the last paragraph of Section 5. (b) Each Participant agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, the Issuer's affiliates, officers, directors, representatives, employees and agents and each Person who controls the Issuer within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent (but on a several, and not joint, basis) as the foregoing indemnity from the Issuer to each Participant, but only with reference to information relating to such Participant furnished to the Issuer in writing by such Participant expressly for use in such Registration Statement, Prospectus or Offering Memorandum, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary Prospectus or Offering Memorandum. The liability of any Participant under this paragraph shall in no event exceed the proceeds received by such Participant from sales of Registrable Notes giving rise to such obligations. (c) If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory 15 investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either of the two preceding paragraphs, such Person (the "INDEMNIFIED PERSON") shall promptly notify the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PERSON") in writing, and the Indemnifying Person, upon request of the Indemnified Person, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person and any others the Indemnifying Person may reasonably designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses actually incurred by such counsel related to such proceeding; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Person (i) shall not relieve it of any obligation or liability which it may have hereunder or otherwise (unless and only to the extent that such failure directly results in the loss or compromise of any material rights or defenses by the Indemnifying Person). In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed in writing to the contrary, (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person or (iii) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or separate but substantially similar related proceeding in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for the Participants and such control Persons of Participants shall be designated in writing by Participants who sold a majority in interest of Registrable Notes sold by all such Participants in the related registration or offering and any such separate firm for the Issuer, its directors, its officers and such control Persons of the Issuer shall be designated in writing by the Issuer. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final non-appealable judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify any Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding. (d) If the indemnification provided for in the first and second paragraphs of this Section 7 is for any reason unavailable to, or insufficient to hold harmless, an Indemnified Person in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraphs, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder and in order to provide for just and equitable contribution, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is 16 appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Person or Persons on the one hand and the Indemnified Person or Persons on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof). The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuer on the one hand or such Participants or such other Indemnified Person, as the case may be, on the other, the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission and any other equitable considerations appropriate under the circumstances. (e) The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by PRO RATA allocation (even if the Participants were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages, judgments, liabilities and expenses referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any reasonable legal or other expenses actually incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, in no event shall a Participant be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which proceeds received by such Participant from sales of Registrable Notes, exceeds the amount of any damages that such Participant has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 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. (f) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 7 will be in addition to any liability which the Indemnifying Persons may otherwise have to the Indemnified Persons referred to above. 8. RULE 144A TRANSACTION At any time after the Hold Period Termination Date but prior to the time any Holder or Holders have given an aggregate of five Demand Notices or Rule 144A Notices, including requests to execute a copy of the Exchange Offer Registration Rights Agreement, any Holder shall be entitled to elect, by providing written notice of such election (a "RULE 144A NOTICE") to the Issuer, to pursue a sale of all or a portion of the Registrable Notes pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act (a "RULE 144A RESALE"). Such written notice shall specify the aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Registrable Notes to be included in the Rule 144A Resale and the intended method of disposition thereof. In connection with any Rule 144A Resale, the Holder or Holders may elect (if an election for an exchange offer is available under applicable law and regulations) to require the Issuer to enter into an Exchange Offer Registration Rights Agreement (a "REGISTRATION ELECTION") with the initial purchasers in 17 the Rule 144A Resale. If (and only if) such Registration Election is included in a Rule 144A Notice, then such Rule 144A Notice and Registration Election together shall count as only one (1) Registration within the meaning of Section 4(b). In the event that such Registration Election is made, then the Issuer shall promptly execute an Exchange Offer Registration Rights Agreement. In connection with a Rule 144A Notice, the Issuer will cooperate in connection with the related Rule 144A Resale by using its reasonable best efforts (and subject to the cooperation of the Holders) to prepare a preliminary Offering Memorandum on or before the Offering Memorandum Deadline and shall otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 5 to the extent that such provisions either refer to a Rule 144A Resale or to the extent that such provisions are typically applicable to Rule 144A Resales. Without limiting the foregoing and provided that the Holders shall have given at least one (1) Business Day prior written notice to the Issuer as to the time of the pricing, upon receipt of the pricing information from the Holders, the Issuer shall promptly prepare a final Offering Memorandum that incorporates such pricing information and makes any other changes that are necessary to prepare a final Offering Memorandum. The failure of the Holders to give at least one (1) Business Day prior written notice to the Issuer as to the time of the pricing shall not affect the Issuer's obligation to prepare a final Offering Memorandum unless and to the extent that such failure effects the ability of the Company to promptly prepare such final Offering Memorandum. 9. MISCELLANEOUS (a) NO INCONSISTENT AGREEMENTS. The Issuer has not, as of the date hereof, and the Issuer shall not, after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to any of its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of Registrable Notes in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. The Issuer has not entered and will not enter into any agreement with respect to any of its securities which will grant to any Person piggy-back rights with respect to a Registration Statement. (b) AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Issuer has obtained the written consent of Holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount at maturity of Registrable Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders of Registrable Notes whose securities are being sold pursuant to a Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect, impair, limit or compromise the rights of other Holders of Registrable Notes may be given by Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Registrable Notes being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Registration Statement; PROVIDED that the provisions of this sentence may not be amended, modified or supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence.
