Piggyback Registration

2.01.

Piggyback Registration

As used in this Section 2.01, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings:

“Registrable Securities” shall mean any shares of Common Stock issued upon any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar event.

The terms “register”, “registered” and “registration” shall refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing a registration statement in compliance with the Securities Act and applicable rules and regulations thereunder, and the declaration or ordering of the effectiveness of such registration statement.

“Registration Expenses” shall mean all expenses incurred by the Company in compliance with this Section 2.01, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Holder for a “due diligence” examination of the Company, and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration (but excluding the compensation of regular employees of the Company, which shall be paid in any event by the Company).

“Selling Expenses” shall mean all underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities and all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Holder (other than the fees and disbursements of counsel included in Registration Expenses).

“Holder” shall mean any holder of the outstanding shares of Registrable Securities which have not been sold to the public.

a. If the Company shall determine to register any of its securities either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders exercising their respective demand registration rights, other than a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, or a registration relating solely to a Rule 145 transaction under the Securities Act, or a registration on any registration form which does not permit secondary sales or does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of Registrable Securities, the Company will:

(i) promptly give to the Holder written notice thereof (which shall include a list of the jurisdictions in which the Company intends to attempt to qualify such securities under the applicable blue sky or other state securities laws); and

(ii) include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or request, made by the Holder within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the written notice from the Company described in clause (i) above, except as set forth in Section 2.01(b) below. Such written request may specify all or a part of the Holders’ Registrable Securities.

b. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holder as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(i). In such event the right of the Holder to registration pursuant to this Section 2.01 shall be conditioned upon the Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of the Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All stockholders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters selected by the Company, which underwriter(s) are reasonably acceptable to a majority-in-interest of the Holder. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.01, if the representative of the underwriters advises the Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation or elimination on the number of shares to be underwritten, the representative may (subject to the allocation priority set forth below) limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the registration and underwriting. The Company shall so advise all holders of securities requesting registration, and the number of shares of securities that are entitled to be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated first to the Company for securities being sold for its own account and thereafter in the following manner: the securities of the Company held by officers and directors of the Company shall be excluded from such registration and underwriting to the extent required by such limitation, and, if a limitation or elimination on the number of shares is still required, then the securities of the Company held by other stockholders of the Company (other than Registrable Securities) shall be excluded from such registration and underwriting to the extent required by such limitation, and, if a limitation on the number of shares is still required, then the number of shares that may be included in the registration statement and underwriting shall be allocated among all stockholders of the Company in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities which they had requested to be included in such registration at the time of filing the registration statement. If the Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, he may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter. Any Registrable Securities or other securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration.

c. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 2.01 shall be borne by the Company, and all Selling Expenses shall be borne by the holders of the securities so registered prorata on the basis of the number of their shares so registered.

d. In the case of each registration effected by the Company pursuant to this Section 2.01, the Company will keep the Holder advised in writing as to the initiation of each registration and as to the completion thereof. At its expense, the Company will:

(i) Keep such registration effective for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days or until the Holder has completed the distribution described in the registration statement relating thereto, whichever first occurs; provided, however, that in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 which are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, such 180-day period shall be extended, if necessary, to keep the registration statement effective until all such Registrable Securities are sold, provided that Rule 415, or any successor rule under the Securities Act, permits an offering on a continuous or delayed basis, and provided further that applicable rules under the Securities Act governing the obligation to file a post-effective amendment, permit, in lieu of filing a post-effective amendment which (y) includes any prospectus required by Section 2.01(a)(3) of the Securities Act or (z) reflects facts or events representing a material or fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement, the incorporation by reference of information required to be included in (y) and (z) above to be contained in periodic reports filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act in the registration statement;

(ii) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to reflect facts or events representing material or fundamental change in the information set forth therein or otherwise necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement;

(iii) Furnish such number of prospectuses and other documents incident thereto, including any amendment of or supplement to the prospectus, as a Holder from time to time may reasonably request;

(iv) Notify each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or incomplete in the light of the circumstances then existing, and at the request of any such seller, prepare and furnish to such seller 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 such shares, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or incomplete in the light of the circumstances then existing;

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

(vi) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration;

(vii) Make available for inspection by the Holder, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement, and any attorney or accountant retained by any of the foregoing, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers and directors to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney or accountant in connection with such registration statement;

(viii)Furnish to Holder a signed counterpart, addressed to the selling Holder, of:

(1)	an opinion of counsel for the Company, dated the effective date of the registration statement, and

(2)

“comfort” letters signed by the Company’s independent public accountants who have examined and reported on the Company’s financial statements included in the registration statement, to the extent permitted by the standards of the AICPA, covering substantially the same matters with respect to the registration statement (and the prospectus included therein) and (in the case of the accountants’ “comfort” letters) with respect to events subsequent to the date of the financial statements, as are customarily covered in opinions of issuer’s counsel and in accountants’ “comfort” letters delivered to the underwriters in underwritten public offerings of securities;

(ix) Furnish to the Holder a copy of all documents filed with and all correspondence from or to the SEC in connection with any such offering; and

(x) Otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve months, but not more than eighteen months, beginning with the first month after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

e. Each Holder of Registrable Securities shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder and the distribution proposed by such Holder as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Section 2.01.

f. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Restricted Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to:

(i) Make and keep public information available as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times from and after ninety (90) days following the effective date of the first registration under the Securities Act filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public;

(ii) Use its best efforts to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements;

(iii) So long as the Holder or its assignees owns any Registrable Securities, furnish forthwith upon request by the Holder or its assignees a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any time from and after ninety (90) days following the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public), and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing a Holder to sell any such securities without registration.

The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to the Holder under this Section 2.01 may be transferred or assigned by Holder to a transferee or assignee of any shares of Common Stock, provided that the Company is given written notice at the time of or within a reasonable time after said transfer or assignment, stating the name and address of said transferee or assignee and identifying the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not be required to take any of the actions described in the sentence above (i) to the extent that the Company is in possession of material non-public information (such that it has been advised by counsel that a failure to disclose such information would constitute a material omission from the prospectus) and it delivers written notice to each such Purchaser of Registrable Securities to the effect that such selling Purchaser may not make offers or sales under the Registration Statement for a period not to exceed 30 days from the date of such notice, or has executed a letter of intent for a material merger, acquisition or disposition transaction and it delivers written notice to each such Purchaser of Registrable Securities to the effect that such selling Purchaser may not make offers or sales under the Registration Statement for a period not to exceed 60 days from the date of such notice; provided, however, that the Company may deliver only two such notices within any 12-month period, or (ii) to the extent that such registration would require initial or continuing disclosure of events or proceedings yet unreported that, in the opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company, would not be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and such disclosure is not otherwise required under applicable law (including applicable securities laws), and the Company delivers written notice to each such Purchaser of Registrable Securities to the effect that such selling Purchaser may not make offers or sales for a period not to exceed 60 days from the date of such notice; provided, however, that the Company may deliver only one such notice within any 365-day period. The Purchaser shall promptly provide to the Company such information as the Company reasonably requests in order to identify such Purchaser and the method of distribution in a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the Prospectus. Such Purchaser also shall notify the Company in writing upon completion of such offer or sale or at such time as such Purchaser no longer intends to make offers or sales under the Registration Statement;

(b) use its best efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities by the time the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC under all applicable state securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions in the United States and its territories and possessions as any Purchaser of Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement shall reasonably request in writing and keep each such registration or qualification effective during the period such Registration Statement is required to be kept effective or during the period offers or sales are being made by a Purchaser that has delivered a Registration Notice to the Company, whichever is shorter; provided, however, that in connection therewith, the Company shall not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation to do business or to register as a broker or dealer in any such jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify or register, subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction;

(d) use its best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any part thereof as promptly as possible;

4.02.

Indemnification by Purchaser

Each Purchaser severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the other selling Purchaser, and each of their respective directors and officers (including each director and officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement), and each Person, if any, who controls the Company or any other selling Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, to the same extent as the indemnity contained in Section 4.01, but only insofar as such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any Registration Statement or any amendment thereto or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such selling Purchaser for use therein relating to the Purchaser’s status as a selling security Purchaser, Purchaser’s failure to deliver a copy of any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, to the extent such delivery is required to be made by Purchaser and after the Company has furnished Purchaser with the requested number of copies of the same, or the breach of any covenant contained in Section 3.03.

4.03.

Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings

Each indemnified party shall give reasonably prompt notice to each indemnifying party of any action or proceeding commenced against the indemnified party in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under the indemnity agreement provided in Sections 4.01 or 4.02, unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and the lack of notice by the indemnified party materially prejudices the indemnifying party or results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and shall not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided under Sections 4.01 or 4.02. After receipt of such notice, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, at its option, jointly with any other indemnifying party so notified, to assume the defense of such action or proceeding at such indemnifying party’s own expense with counsel chosen by such indemnifying party and approved by the indemnified party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action or proceeding include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party reasonably determines, upon advice of counsel, that a conflict of interest exists or that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, then the indemnified party shall be entitled to one separate counsel, the reasonable fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the indemnifying party. If the indemnifying party does not assume the defense of any such action or proceeding, after having received the notice referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph, the indemnifying party will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel (which shall be limited to a single law firm) for the indemnified party. In such event, however, the indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement effected without the written consent of such indemnifying party. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of any such action or proceeding in accordance with this paragraph, such indemnifying party shall not be liable for any fees and expenses of counsel for the indemnified party incurred thereafter in connection with such action or proceeding except as set forth in the proviso in the second sentence of this Section 4.03.

4.04.

Contribution

(a) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in this Section 4 is for any reason held to be unenforceable although applicable in accordance with its terms, the Company and the selling Purchaser shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by such indemnity agreement incurred by the Company and the selling Purchaser, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of and benefits to the Company on the one hand and the selling Purchaser on the other (in such proportions that the selling Purchaser are severally, not jointly, responsible for the balance), in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits to the indemnifying party and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the total proceeds received by the indemnifying party and indemnified parties in connection with the offering to which such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses relate.
