The Company shall not be obligated to effect more than three (3) Registrations pursuant to a Demand Registration under this Agreement, and furthermore the Company shall not be obligated to effect any Demand Registration within 90 days after the effective date of a previous Demand Registration or a previous Piggy-back Registration in which FTV Holders of Registrable Securities were permitted to register, and actually sold, 80% of the Registrable Securities requested to be included therein. The Company may postpone for up to 60 days the filing or effectiveness of a Registration Statement for a Demand Registration if the Registration Statement is required under applicable law, rule or regulation to contain (i) financial statements that are, in the Company’s reasonable belief (upon advice of legal counsel), unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control, (ii) audited financial statements as of a date other than the Company’s fiscal year end (unless the FTV Holders requesting Registration agree to pay the reasonable expenses of this audit), (iii) pro forma financial statements that are required to be included in a registration statement, or if the Board determines in its reasonable good faith judgment (upon advice of legal counsel) that such Demand Registration would (x) materially interfere with a pending significant acquisition, corporate organization or pending offering of the Company’s debt or equity securities, (y) require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or (z) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act; provided, that in such event the FTV Holders initiating a Demand Registration shall be entitled to withdraw such request and, if such request is withdrawn, such Demand Registration shall not count as one of the permitted Demand Registrations hereunder and the Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with such Registration. The Company may delay a Demand Registration hereunder twice in any period of twelve consecutive months.

5.1.1.prepare and file with the Commission as soon as practicable a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use commercially reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective until the earlier of (i) (A) with respect to a Demand Registration, 12 months after the effective date of the Registration Statement, extended as necessary in accordance with Section 5.4., and (B) with respect to the FTV Shelf Registration Statement, 36 months after the effective date thereof; and (ii) the date on which all the Registrable Securities subject thereto have been sold or distributed pursuant to such Registration Statement.;

 

5.1.2.prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement, and such supplements to the Prospectus, as may be requested by the Holders or any Underwriter of Registrable Securities or as may be required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company or by the Securities Act or rules and regulations thereunder to keep the Registration Statement effective until the earlier of (i) (A) with respect to a Demand Registration, 12 months after the effective date of the Registration Statement, extended as necessary in accordance with Section 5.4., and (B) with respect to the FTV Shelf Registration Statement, 36 months after the effective date thereof; and (ii) the date on which all the Registrable Securities subject thereto have been sold or distributed pursuant to such Registration Statement;

 

5.1.3.prior to filing a Registration Statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without charge to the Underwriters, if any, and the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration, and such Holders’ legal counsel, copies of such documents as proposed to be filed with such Registration Statement (including each preliminary Prospectus), and each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), and such other documents as the Underwriters and the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration and the legal counsel for any such Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holders.

 

5.1.4.permit the Holders, the Underwriters, if any, and any counsel or accountant of the Holders or Underwriters to participate in the preparation of the Registration Statement and any documents in connection therewith, and cause the Company’s directors, officers and employees to supply all information required by applicable law, rule or regulation to be included in the Registration Statement or reasonably requested by any such Holder, Underwriter, counsel or accountant. The Underwriters, Holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration and such Holders’ legal counsel shall have the opportunity to review and comment on all such documents proposed to be filed in connection with a Registration, including pursuant to this Article 5;

 

 10 

 

 

5.1.5.prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use commercially reasonable best efforts to (A) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may reasonably request and (B) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company and do any and all other acts and things that may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify or take any action to which it would be subject to general service of process or taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then otherwise so subject;

 

5.1.6.use commercially reasonable best efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange or automated quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed;

 

5.1.7.provide a transfer agent or warrant agent, as applicable, and registrar for all such Registrable Securities no later than the effective date of such Registration Statement;

 

5.1.8.advise each participating Holder of such Registrable Securities, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance of any stop order by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and promptly use commercially reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if such stop order should be issued;

 

5.1.9.at least five (5) days prior to the filing of any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document that is to be incorporated by reference into such Registration Statement or Prospectus, furnish a copy thereof to each participating Holder of such Registrable Securities or its counsel;

 

5.1.10.notify the participating Holders at any time when a Prospectus relating to such Registration Statement 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 a Misstatement, and then to correct such Misstatement as set forth in Section 5.4 hereof;

 

5.1.11.in the event of an Underwritten Offering, permit the participating Holders to rely on any “cold comfort” letter from the Company’s independent registered public accountants provided to the managing Underwriter of such offering;

 

5.1.12.in the event of an Underwritten Offering, permit the participating Holders to rely on any opinion(s) of counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such Registration issued to the managing Underwriter of such offering covering legal matters with respect to the Registration;

 

5.1.13.in the event of any Underwritten Offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing Underwriter of such offering;

 

5.1.14.make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve (12) months beginning with the first day of the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder, and which requirement will be deemed to be satisfied if the Company timely files complete and accurate information on Forms 10-Q, 10-K and 8-K under the Exchange Act and otherwise complies with Rule 158 under the Securities Act;

 

5.1.15.if the Registration involves the Registration of Registrable Securities involving gross proceeds in excess of $25,000,000, use its commercially reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of the Company to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriter or Holder in any Underwritten Offering; and

 

5.1.16.otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Holders, in connection with such Registration.

 

 11 

 

 

5.2.Registration Expenses. The Registration Expenses of all Registrations shall be borne by the Company.

 

5.3.Requirements for Participation in Underwritten Offerings. No person may participate in any Underwritten Offering for equity securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration initiated by the Company hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and the Holders, as applicable, and (ii) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

 

5.4.Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until he, she or it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed and he, she or it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as reasonably practicable after the time of such notice) and, if so directed by the Company, each Holder shall deliver to the Company (at the Company's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such holder's possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. If the continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would require under applicable law, rule or regulation the Registration Statement to contain (i) financial statements that are, in the Company’s reasonable belief (upon advice of legal counsel), unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control, (ii) audited financial statements as of a date other than the Company’s fiscal year end (unless the applicable Holders agree to pay the reasonable expenses of this audit), (iii) pro forma financial statements that are required to be included in a registration statement, or if the Board determines in its reasonable good faith judgment (upon advice of legal counsel) that such Registration Statement would (x) materially interfere with a pending significant acquisition, corporate organization or pending offering of the Company’s debt or equity securities, (y) require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or (z) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for a reasonable period of time, as determined in good faith by the Company, but in no event for more than 60 days. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities. The Company shall immediately notify the Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 5.4. In the event that the Company has given Holders notice of suspension of sales pursuant to this Section 5.4, the applicable time period set forth in Section 4.1.1 during which a Registration Statement is to remain effective shall be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such suspension notice to and including the date on which such Holders receive notice in writing from the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed.

 

5.5.Reporting Obligations. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall be reporting under the Exchange Act, covenants to use commercially reasonable efforts to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly upon request by a Holder furnish such Holder with true and complete copies of such filings. The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell shares of Common Stock held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, including providing any legal opinions at the expense borne by the Company. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

ARTICLE 6.
INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

 

6.1.The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors and each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) caused by (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, (ii) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulations promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law in connection with an offering covered by such registration statement, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Company shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to the indemnification of the Holder. 

 

6.2.In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company is required to disclose under the Securities Act for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from any (i) untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, (ii) any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (iii) any violation by the Holders of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulations promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law in connection with an offering covered by such registration statement, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds (after deducting underwriting discount, commissions, taxes and other transaction fees and expenses) received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company.

 

6.3.Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

 

 13 

 

 

6.4.The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Company and each Holder of Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s or such Holder’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

 

6.5.If the indemnification provided under Section 6.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided, however, that the liability of any Holder under this subsection 6.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds (after deducting underwriting discount, commissions, taxes and other transaction fees and expenses) received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in subsections 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection 6.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this subsection 6.5. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection 6.5 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

7.2.1.This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of the Company hereunder may not be assigned or delegated by the Company in whole or in part without the prior consent of the Holders of Registrable Securities, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. A Holder may assign or delegate its rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement in whole or in part, and the rights of the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder shall be assignable, delegable or transferable in conjunction with and or to the extent of any transfer of Registrable Securities by any such Holder, only with the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that no consent of the Company shall be required if a Holder of Registrable Securities assigns or delegates its rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement to any of its affiliates, partners (direct or indirect), members, equityholders or shareholders.

 

7.2.2.This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each of the Holders.

 15 

 

 

7.3.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts (including facsimile or PDF counterparts), each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute the same instrument, but only one of which need be produced.

 

7.4.Governing Law; Venue. NOTWITHSTANDING THE PLACE WHERE THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE EXECUTED BY ANY OF THE PARTIES HERETO, THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS OF SUCH JURISDICTION. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may be instituted in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or any Delaware State court, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding.

 

7.5.Amendments and Modifications. Upon the written consent of the Company and the Holders, compliance with any of the provisions, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement may be waived, or any of such provisions, covenants or conditions may be amended or modified. No course of dealing between any Holder or the Company and any other party hereto or any failure or delay on the part of a Holder or the Company in exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Holder or the Company. No single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies under this Agreement by a party shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder by such party.

 

7.6.Termination. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the date as of which all of the Registrable Securities have either been sold or distributed pursuant to a Registration Statement, (ii) the date as of which all of the Registrable Securities cease to be Registrable Securities or (iii) the date that is 36 months following the expiration of the FTV Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that if this Agreement is to be terminated pursuant to clause (iii) and the during the term of this Agreement the Company has delayed the initial filing or effectiveness of, or suspended the use of, any Registration Statement pursuant to Sections 3.1.7, 4.1.2, 4.3 or 5.4, the term of this Agreement shall be extended for the period required to ensure that any such delayed or suspended Registration Statement shall remain effective for a period of 12 months.

The Company further agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

7.8.Other Registration Rights. The Company represents and warrants that no person, other than a Holder of Registrable Securities and the holders with rights under the Founder Registration Rights Agreement, has any rights to require the Company to register any securities of the Company for sale or to include such securities of the Company in any Registration filed by the Company for the sale of securities for its own account or for the account of any other person. After the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of each Holder, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would grant such holder registration rights pari passu with or senior to those granted to the Holders hereunder.

 

7.9.Further Assurances. If the Holders or any of its affiliates seek to effectuate a distribution in kind of all or part of their respective Registrable Securities to their respective affiliates, partners (direct or indirect), members, equityholders or shareholders, the Company shall, subject to any applicable contractual transfer restrictions, work with the foregoing persons to facilitate such distribution in kind in the manner reasonably requested.
