2.             REGISTRATION.

a.             Mandatory Registration. No later than three Business Days prior to the Initial Filing Deadline of the Resale Registration Statement the Company shall deliver to the Stockholder Representative a draft of the Resale Registration Statement and consider in good faith any comments made by the Stockholder Representative and incorporate therein any agreed upon changes. Subject to any Permitted Delay, the Company shall prepare, and, as soon as practicable but in no event later than the Initial Filing Deadline, file with or confidentially submit to the SEC a Resale Registration Statement on Form S-1 covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities (including any Registrable Securities to be distributed to members, general partners or limited partners or shareholders of any Holders that is a venture capital fund, institutional investor or pooled investment vehicle (each an “Institutional Shareholder”)). Each Holder who will include its shares in the Resale Registration Statement shall sign and return to the Company a Selling Stockholder questionnaire in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause the Resale Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable after the filing thereof and (ii) keep such Resale Registration Statement continuously effective and in compliance with the 1933 Act and useable until such time as the restrictive legends and/or similar designations on the Shares of Seller have been removed pursuant to Section 3(d), including by filing successive replacement or renewal Registration Statements upon the expiration of such Resale Registration Statement. If (i) there is material non-public information regarding the Company the disclosure of which the Company determines in its reasonable good faith judgement (after consultation with its legal advisors) that the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Resale Registration Statement would require public disclosure of such material non-public information that Parent is not otherwise obligated to disclose and that the immediate disclosure of such information would be detrimental to Parent or (ii) the Company determines the Resale Registration Statement proposed to be delayed or suspended would reasonably be expected to, if not delayed or suspended, have an adverse effect on any pending negotiation or plan of the Company to effect a merger, acquisition, disposition, financing, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction, in each case that, if consummated, would be material to the Company, then the Company may postpone or suspend filing or effectiveness of such Resale Registration Statement or use of the prospectus under the Resale Registration Statement (a “Permitted Delay”); provided that the Company shall not be entitled to exercise a Permitted Delay (A) more than once during any six (6) month period or (B) for a period exceeding forty-five (45) days on any one occasion.

b.            Rule 424 Prospectus. The Company shall, as required by applicable securities regulations, from time to time file with the SEC, pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the 1933 Act, a prospectus, including any amendments or prospectus supplements thereto, to be used in connection with sales of the Registrable Securities under the Resale Registration Statement and furnish to each Holder such number of copies of any prospectus as each Holder may reasonably request in order to effect the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities to be offered and sold by such Holder thereunder.

3.             RELATED OBLIGATIONS.

With respect to the Resale Registration Statement and whenever any Registrable Securities are to be registered pursuant to Section 2(a), the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and, pursuant thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:

a.            The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to any Resale Registration Statement and any prospectus used in connection with such Resale Registration Statement, as may be necessary to keep the Resale Registration Statement effective, subject to Permitted Delays and Section 3(b) hereof and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by the Resale Registration Statement until such time as there are no remaining Registrable Securities. Should the Company file a post-effective amendment to the Resale Registration Statement, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such filing declared effective by the SEC within thirty (30) consecutive Business Days following the date of filing, which such period shall be extended for an additional thirty (30) Business Days if the Company receives a comment letter from the SEC in connection therewith.

b.            Subject to Permitted Delays, as promptly as reasonably practicable after becoming aware of such event or facts, the Company shall notify each Holder that holds Registrable Securities in writing if the Company has determined that the prospectus included in any Resale 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, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and as promptly as reasonably practical (taking into account the Company’s good faith assessment of any adverse consequences to the Company and its stockholders of premature disclosure of such event or facts) prepare a prospectus supplement or amendment to such Resale Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and, upon any Holder’s request, deliver a copy of such prospectus supplement or amendment to such Holder. In providing this notice to the Holders, the Company shall not include any other information about the facts underlying the Company’s determination and shall not in any way communicate any material nonpublic information about the Company or the Common Stock to the Holders. In no event shall the delivery of a notice under this Section 3(b), or the resulting unavailability of a Resale Registration Statement, without regard to its duration, for disposition of securities by the Holders be considered a breach by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement.

c.             If reasonably requested by a Holder who holds Registrable Securities, the Company shall (i) promptly incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the Resale Registration Statement such information as such Holder believes should be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being sold, the purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities; (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as promptly as practicable once notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (iii) supplement or make amendments to any Resale Registration Statement (including by means of any document incorporated therein by reference).

d.            The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as each Holder shall reasonably request and take such other actions which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such Holder to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities and (ii) make any necessary filings, including if applicable a listing of additional shares application, to list all Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement on the Nasdaq Global Select Market.

e.             The Company acknowledges and agrees that except to the extent required by applicable law (i) the Resale Registration Statement will not specifically list as selling securityholders any passive members, general partners or limited partners or shareholders of any Institutional Shareholder who receives Shares at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Registration Statement will include a distribution to members, general partners or limited partners or shareholders of an Institutional Shareholder in the form set forth in Annex A to the Selling Stockholder Notice and Questionnaire and (iii) from and after the date that the Registration Statement is effective, each Institutional Shareholder shall be permitted to distribute Shares to its members, general partners or limited partners or shareholders who are not “affiliates” (as defined in Rule 144) of Parent without any restrictive legends.

f.             The Company shall immediately instruct its transfer agent to remove any restrictive legends and/or similar designations on the Registrable Securities of any Holder upon such Registrable Securities becoming eligible for sale by such Holder pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction on the volume or manner of sale under Rule 144.

4.             OBLIGATIONS OF THE HOLDERS.

a.             Each Holder has furnished to the Company in Exhibit B hereto such information regarding itself and the Registrable Securities held by it as reasonably requested by the Company in order to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities. The Company shall notify the Holders in writing of any other information the Company reasonably requires from the Holders in connection with any Registration Statement hereunder. Each Holder will as promptly as practicable notify the Company of any material change in the information set forth in Exhibit B, other than changes in its ownership of Common Stock.

b.            Each Holder agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of any amendments and supplements to any Registration Statement hereunder.

5.             EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION.

All reasonable expenses of the Company, other than sales or brokerage commissions incurred by the Holders and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Holders, incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Section 2, including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualifications fees, printers and accounting fees, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, shall be paid by the Company.

6.             INDEMNIFICATION.

a.             To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Holder, each Person, if any, who controls a Holder, the members, the directors, officers, partners, employees, agents, representatives of each Holder and each Person, if any, who controls a Holder within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”) (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in settlement (with the prior consent of the Company, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) or expenses, joint or several (collectively, “Claims”), incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency or body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in the Resale Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are offered, or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the final prospectus to the Resale Registration Statement or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Resale Registration Statement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, “Violations”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a): (A) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information about a Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder or such Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Resale Registration Statement, or any such prospectus, amendment thereof or supplement thereto, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company; (B) with respect to any superseded prospectus, shall not inure to the benefit of any such person from whom the person asserting any such Claim purchased the Registrable Securities that are the subject thereof (or to the benefit of any other Indemnified Person) if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the superseded prospectus was corrected in the revised prospectus, as then amended or supplemented; (C) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of a Holder to deliver, or to cause to be delivered, the prospectus made available by the Company; and (D) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person.

b.            In connection with the Resale Registration Statement or Prospectus, each Holder, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Resale Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (collectively and together with an Indemnified Person, an “Indemnified Party”), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information about such Holder set forth on Exhibit B hereto or updated from time to time in writing by such Holder and furnished to the Company by such Holder expressly for inclusion in the Resale Registration Statement or prospectus or from the failure of such Holder to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company; and, subject to Section 6(d), such Holder will reimburse any out-of-pocket legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of such Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, further, however, that such Holder shall be liable under this Section 6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net amount of proceeds actually received by such Holder as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party.

c.             Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, and upon such notice, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (together with all other Indemnified Persons and Indemnified Parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

d.            The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

7.             CONTRIBUTION.

To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any party who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds actually received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.

8.             ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

The Holders may not assign their rights under this Agreement, other than in connection with a transfer of Shares by a Holder to an Affiliate of such Holder or a distribution by a Holder to its members, general partners or limited partners, which such assignment shall require prior written notice to the Company.

9.             AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, without the prior written consent of the Company and the Required Holders.
