Notwithstanding the foregoing, or any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall have no obligation to file a registration statement pursuant to this Agreement more frequently than four (4) times per calendar year.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in no event shall the Company be required to file any registration statement pursuant to this Agreement prior to the date as of which Shares may be sold by the Shareholder pursuant to Section 11.1 of the Loan Agreement. (c) REQUIREMENTS FOR DEMANDS. Each Demand shall specify the number of Registrable Securities to be registered and, in the case of an Anticipatory Demand, the applicable Conversion Amount. Each Demand also shall specify the intended method of distribution, to the 5. extent known on the Demand Date, including whether such method contemplates an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415. No Demand shall be effective or impose any obligation upon the Company unless it requires registration of no less than the Requisite Amount of Registrable Securities. (d) SATISFACTION OF OBLIGATIONS. Subject to Section 4, a registration shall not be treated as a Demand Registration until the applicable registration statement with respect to such Demand Registration has been filed with the Commission and maintained continuously effective for a period of at least 150 days (or such shorter period as shall have been sufficient to permit all Registrable Securities included therein to have been sold thereunder in accordance with the manner of distribution set forth in such registration statement). (e) LIMITATIONS WITH RESPECT TO DEMAND REGISTRATIONS. The Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any Demand Registration in any state or jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in connection therewith, unless the Company already is subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act; provided that the Company agrees to execute customary consents to service of process required by any state's securities laws in connection with securities offerings. The Company shall be entitled to postpone the filing or the effectiveness of a registration statement in respect of a Demand or suspend the use or effectiveness of any such registration statement for up to [...***...] (but no more than [...***...] in any period of [...***...] provided, that postponements and suspensions during any such [...***...] shall not exceed [...***...] in the aggregate) if the Company furnishes to the Holders a certificate signed by the chief executive officer of the Company stating that, (i) in the good faith judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, effecting the Demand Registration in respect of such Demand or effecting any transactions pursuant to such registration statement (x) would have a material adverse effect on any proposal or plan by the Company to engage in any material debt or equity financing, acquisition or disposition of assets (outside the ordinary course of business) or any material merger, share exchange, consolidation, tender offer or other transaction, or (y) would involve disclosure obligations contrary to the Company's best interests, or (ii) (x) the Company has received a request by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of a registration statement filed by the Company in accordance with a Demand Registration for amendments or supplements to such a registration statement or related prospectus or for additional information, (y) the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority have issued any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a registration statement filed by the Company in accordance with a Demand Registration or have initiated any proceedings for that purpose, or (z) the Company has received any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose. Each Holder agrees not to effect any transactions pursuant to any registration statement with respect to which any such suspension is at any time in effect. To the extent that any request, stop order or notification referred to in the foregoing clause (ii) is made or issued by a state governmental authority, the suspension of the registration statement shall be invoked only with respect to the state over which such authority has jurisdiction. If so directed by the Company, all Holders registering shares under such registration statements shall use their best efforts to deliver to the Company (at the Company's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holders' *CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED 6. possession, of the applicable prospectus relating to such Registrable Securities that is current at the time of receipt of such notice. In addition, the Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any such Demand Registration during the period starting with the date 60 days prior to the Company's estimated date of filing of, and ending on the date 90 days immediately following the effective date of, any registration statement pertaining to a Primary Offering of securities of the Company (other than a registration of securities in a transaction under Rule 145 or with respect to an employee benefit plan), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective. (f) PRIORITY IN DEMAND REGISTRATIONS. In connection with a Demand Registration, if any managing underwriter (or, if such Demand Registration is not an underwritten offering, a nationally recognized independent underwriter selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities sought to be registered in such Demand Registration (and whose fees and expenses shall be borne solely by the Company, except that in no event shall the Company pay any Selling Expenses associated with the sale of the Registrable Securities, which shall be borne solely by the Holders)) advises the Company and the Holders of the Registrable Securities sought to be included in such Demand Registration that, in its opinion, the inclusion of all the Registrable Securities and any other securities of the Company, in each case, sought to be registered in connection with such Demand Registration would adversely affect the marketability of the Registrable Securities sought to be sold pursuant thereto, then the Company shall include in the registration statement applicable to such Demand Registration only such securities as the Holders of Registrable Securities sought to be registered therein ("DEMANDING SELLERS") and the Company are advised by such underwriter can be sold without such an effect (the "MAXIMUM DEMAND NUMBER"), as follows and in the following order of priority: (i) first, the number of Registrable Securities sought to be registered by each Demanding Seller, pro rata in proportion to the number of Registrable Securities sought to be registered by all Demanding Sellers; and (ii) second, if the number of Registrable Securities to be included under clause (i) next above is less than the Maximum Demand Number, the number of securities sought to be included by each other seller, pro rata in proportion to the number of securities sought to be sold by all such other sellers, which in the aggregate, when added to the number of securities to be included pursuant to clause (i) next above, equals the Maximum Demand Number. (g) SELECTION OF UNDERWRITERS. If the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities sought to be registered in a Demand Registration request that such Demand Registration be an underwritten offering, then such Holders shall select a nationally recognized underwriter or underwriters to manage and administer such offering (at such Holders' expense), such underwriter or underwriters, as the case may be, to be subject to the approval of the Company's Board of Directors, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. 7.

(a) Subject to such additional restrictions set forth in this Section 3, each Holder agrees not to make any Transfer of all or any portion of its Shares unless and until: (i) there is then 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) (A) The Transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the terms of Sections 3, 8 and 13 of this Registration Rights Agreement, (B) such Holder 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, and (C) such Holder shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the Company, that such Transfer will not require registration of such Shares under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not require the Transferee to be bound by the terms of Section 3, 8 and 13 of this Registration Rights Agreement if the Company shall determine that such Transferee has acquired said Shares pursuant to a transaction in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) above, no restriction pursuant to subsection (a) shall apply to a Transfer by a Holder that is a corporation Transferring to a wholly-owned subsidiary or a parent corporation that owns all of the capital stock of the Holder; provided, that in each case the Transferee has agreed in writing to be subject to the terms of this Registration Rights Agreement to the same extent as if it were an original Holder hereunder.

(e) Any legend endorsed on an instrument pursuant to applicable state securities laws and the stop-transfer instructions with respect to such securities shall be removed upon receipt by the Company of an order of the appropriate blue sky authority authorizing such removal.

In the event of any such withdrawal, the Company shall not include such Registrable Securities in the applicable registration and such Registrable Securities shall continue to be Registrable Securities hereunder. No such withdrawal shall affect the obligations of the Company with respect to the Registrable Securities not so withdrawn; provided that if such withdrawal shall reduce the number of Registrable Securities sought to be included in such registration below the Requisite Amount, then the Company shall as promptly as practicable give each Holder of Registrable Securities so to be registered notice to such effect, referring to this Agreement and summarizing this Section, and within five business days following the effectiveness of such notice, either the Company or the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities may, by written notice to each Holder of Registrable Securities or the Company, respectively, elect that such registration statement not be *CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED 9. filed or, if theretofore filed, be withdrawn.

In connection with any registration statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, each such Holder agrees to indemnify the Company and its directors, officers, employees and agents and each Person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) the Company against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained or incorporated by reference in the registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder for use in connection with such registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto (ii) any failure by such Holder to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in this Registration Rights Agreement respecting the sale of the Registrable Securities or (iii) the inaccuracy of any representation made by such Holder in this Registration Rights Agreement or in any representations relating to such Holder's acquisition of the Shares made by such Holder in any of the other Related Agreements; provided that the obligation to indemnify will be several, not joint and several, among Holders of Registrable Securities and the liability hereunder of each such Holder of Registrable Securities will be in proportion to and limited to the gross amount received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement. (c) NOTICE. Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not release the indemnifying party from its obligations under this Section 7, except to the extent that the indemnifying party has been materially prejudiced by such failure to provide such notice. (d) DEFENSE OF ACTIONS. In any case in which any such action or claim is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof (but only so long as it continues to have the right to defend such action or claim), the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party hereunder for any legal or other expense subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof (unless such indemnified party reasonably objects to such assumption on the grounds that there may be defenses available to it which are different from or in addition to the defenses available to such indemnifying party, in which event the indemnified party shall be reimbursed by the indemnifying party for the reasonable expenses incurred in connection with retaining separate legal counsel; provided that the indemnifying party shall not be obligated to reimburse 14. the indemnified parties for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all indemnified parties who do not have different or additional defenses among themselves). An indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of an action or claim effected without its consent, provided that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The indemnifying party shall lose its right to defend an action or claim if it shall fail to contest diligently such action or claim. An indemnifying party shall not settle an action or claim as it relates to an indemnified party without the consent of such indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). (e) SURVIVAL. The indemnification provided for under this Registration Rights Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities in accordance with this Registration Rights Agreement. (f) CONTRIBUTION. If recovery is not available under the foregoing indemnification provisions for any reason or reasons other than as specified therein, any Person who would otherwise be entitled to indemnification by the terms thereof shall nevertheless be entitled to contribution with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses with respect to which such Person would be entitled to such indemnification but for such reason or reasons. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective Persons are entitled, there shall be considered the Persons' relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted, the opportunity to correct and prevent any alleged misstatement or omission, and other equitable considerations appropriate under the circumstances. It is hereby agreed that it would not necessarily be equitable if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation. SECTION 8. LOCK-UP AGREEMENT. Each Holder agrees, so long as such Holder holds at least one percent (1%) of the Company's outstanding voting equity securities, in connection with any Primary Offering, upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing such offering, not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any Registrable Securities (other than any which may be included in such registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 90 days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such underwriters; provided that the executive officers and directors of the Company who own stock of the Company also agree to such restrictions. SECTION 9. RULE 144 INFORMATION. With a view to making available the benefits of Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit the sale of restricted securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees, until the Registrable Securities shall have ceased to be restricted securities within the meaning of Rule 144, to use its reasonable efforts to: (a) make and keep available adequate current public information, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144; 15. (b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required to be filed by the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and (c) furnish to any Holder, promptly upon request, a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents of the Company and other information in the possession of the Company as such Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing such Holder to sell any such securities without registration. SECTION 10. TRANSFER OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement may be assigned by a Holder to a transferee or assignee of not less than 100,000 Registrable Securities (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any split or combination of shares, recapitalization or similar transaction); provided that (i) the transferring Holder gives the Company written notice of such transfer or assignment within a reasonable time after consummation thereof, which notice states the name and address of the transferee or assignee and identifies the Registrable Securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned; (ii) the transferee or assignee confirms in writing its agreement to assume the obligations of the Holder with respect to the transferred Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement; and (iii) immediately following such transfer or assignment, the further disposition of such Registrable Securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act. SECTION 11. TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights granted under this Agreement shall terminate on the second anniversary of the date as of which the Shareholder no longer has the right to effect any Conversion. SECTION 12. ASSUMPTION BY SUCCESSOR. The Company shall not, directly or indirectly, enter into any merger, consolidation, reorganization or conversion transaction in which the Company is not the surviving entity (or in which the Company survives as a wholly owned subsidiary of another entity) unless the surviving entity, prior to such transaction, agrees in writing to assume in full and without modification (other than conforming changes necessary to reflect the new issuer of the Registrable Securities) all of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement. SECTION 13. MISCELLANEOUS. (a) NO EXISTING REGISTRATION RIGHTS; NO INCONSISTENT AGREEMENTS. The Company represents and warrants that there are no existing rights to require or request the Company to register any equity securities of the Company, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, except for those rights applicable to securities covered by registration statements previously filed by the Company. The Company shall not grant to any Person any registration rights in any way conflicting with those contained herein 16. without the consent of the Shareholder and of Holders owning a majority of the Registrable Securities. (b) REMEDIES. If any party to this Agreement obtains a judgment against any other party hereto by reason of any breach of this Agreement or the failure of such other party to comply with the provisions hereof, a reasonable attorneys' fee as fixed by the court shall be included in such judgment. No remedy conferred upon any party to this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy herein or by law provided or permitted, but each such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. (c) AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived, and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it, only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the Shareholder and of Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement or of any further breach of the provision so waived or of any other provision of this Agreement. No extension of time for the performance of any obligation or act hereunder shall be deemed an extension of time for the performance of any other obligation or act. The waiver by any party of any of the conditions precedent to its obligations under this Agreement shall not preclude it from seeking redress for breach of this Agreement. (d) SEVERABILITY. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall continue to be binding and in full force and effect. (e) COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be effective only upon delivery and thereafter shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which shall be taken to be one and the same instrument with the same effect as if each of the parties hereto had signed the same signature page. Any signature page of this Agreement may be detached from any counterpart of this Agreement without impairing the legal effect of any signature thereon and may be attached to another counterpart of this Agreement identical in form hereto and having attached to it one or more additional signature pages. (f) DESCRIPTIVE HEADINGS. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to limit, characterize or interpret any provision of this Agreement. (g) GOVERNING LAW. All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement and the exhibits and schedules hereto will be governed by the internal law, and not the law of conflicts, of New York. 17.
