2.  REGISTRATION.

 

a. MANDATORY REGISTRATION. Following the Investment Commitment Closing pursuant to the Investment Agreement, the Company shall prepare, and, on or prior to the Initial Registration Filing Deadline (as defined above) file with the Commission a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (or, if Form S-1 is not then available, on such form of Registration Statement as is then available to effect a registration of the Registrable Securities, subject to the consent of the Holder, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld)(the “Initial Registration Statement”) covering the resale of the Registrable Securities which Registration Statement, to the extent allowable under the 1933 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (including Rule 416), shall state that such Registration Statement also covers such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock as may become issuable to prevent dilution resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions and shall contain a plan of distribution reasonably acceptable to the Holder.  The number of shares of Common Stock initially included in such Initial Registration Statement shall be no less than the Initial Registration Minimum.  If any Registration Statement covers less than the total number of Registrable Securities, a “Registration Shortfall” shall be said to have occurred.

 

 

b.  SEC SHARE REDUCTION. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company is advised by the staff of the Commission in a written comment letter or otherwise that the Staff or the SEC seeks to characterize any offering pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement as constituting an offering of securities that does not permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used for resales by the Investor on a delayed or continuous basis under Rule 415 at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices)(or as otherwise may be acceptable to the Investor), because of the number of shares sought to be included in the Registration Statement, then the Company may reduce (an “SEC Share Reduction”) the number of shares covered by such Registration Statement to the maximum number which would still enable the Staff and the SEC to allow the Company to conduct such offering in accordance with the provisions of Rule 415 and to permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used as aforesaid.  In the event of an SEC Share Reduction, (i) the inclusion of the Commitment Shares and the Fee Shares in such initial Registration Statement shall take precedence over any Put Shares and shall not be cut back or removed from such Registration Statement until any Put Shares are cut back and removed from such Registration Statement.

 

c.  MISC.   The Company shall, as early as practicable on the Trading Day after the effective date of such Registration Statement, file a final Prospectus with the Commission as required by Rule 424.  The Company acknowledges that the number of shares initially included in each Registration Statement represents a good faith estimate of the maximum number of Put Shares to be issued in addition to the Commitment Shares and Fee Shares, and shall be amended if not sufficient.  Each Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each request for acceleration of effectiveness thereof) shall be provided to (and subject to the approval of) the Investor and its counsel prior to its filing or other submission.

d.  PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATIONS.  If at any time prior to the expiration of the Registration Period (as hereinafter defined) the Company shall determine to file with the Commission a Registration Statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity securities (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans), the Company shall send to Investor written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen (15) days after the effective date of such notice, the Investor shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such Registration Statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities which are not then registered for resale pursuant to a current and effective Registration Statement, and which the Investor requests to be registered, except that if, (i) inclusion of such shares would result in the offering not being Rule 415 Eligible, or (ii) in connection with any underwritten public offering for the account of the Company, the managing underwriter(s) thereof shall impose a limitation on the number of shares of Common Stock which may be included in the Registration Statement because, in such underwriter(s)' judgment, marketing or other factors dictate such limitation is necessary to facilitate public distribution, then the Company shall be obligated to include in such Registration Statement only such limited portion of the Registrable Securities with respect to which the Investor has requested inclusion hereunder (i) as would enable the offering to be Rule 415 Eligible or (ii) as the underwriter shall permit;

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not exclude any Registrable Securities unless the Company has first excluded all outstanding securities, the holders of which are not entitled by contract to inclusion of such securities in such Registration Statement or are not entitled to pro rata inclusion with the Registrable Securities; and

 

PROVIDED, FURTHER, HOWEVER, that, after giving effect to the immediately preceding proviso, any exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata with holders of other securities having the contractual right to include such securities in the Registration Statement other than holders of securities entitled to inclusion of their securities in such Registration Statement by reason of demand registration rights. No right to registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 2(d) shall be construed to limit any registration required under Sections 2(a) or 3 hereof.  If an offering in connection with which the Investor is entitled to registration under this Section 2(d) is an underwritten offering, then the Investor shall, unless otherwise agreed by the Company, offer and sell such Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering using the same underwriter or underwriters and, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, on the same terms and conditions as other shares of Common Stock included in such underwritten offering. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the registration rights of the Investor pursuant to this Section 2(d) shall only be available in the event the Company fails to timely file, obtain effectiveness or maintain effectiveness of any Registration Statement to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall terminate and be of no further force and effect once the Company satisfies its obligations under this Agreement.

3.  OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY.  In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall have the following obligations:

a.  The Company shall prepare promptly, and file with the Commission as soon as practicable after the date of the Closing under the Investment Agreement (the "Closing Date") (but no later than the Filing Deadline), Registration Statements with respect to the number of Registrable Securities provided in Section 2(a), and thereafter use its best efforts to cause each such Registration Statement relating to Registrable Securities to become effective as soon as possible after such filing, but in any event shall cause each such Registration Statement relating to Registrable Securities to become effective no later than the Effectiveness Deadline, and, subject to any Allowed Delay, the Company shall keep the Registration Statement current and effective (and the prospectus contained therein available for use) pursuant to Rule 415 for resales by the Investor on a delayed or continuous basis at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices) at all times until such date as is the earlier of (i) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities for such Registration Statement have been sold and (ii) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities for such Registration Statement (as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company's transfer agent and the affected Holder) may be immediately sold to the public without registration or restriction (including without limitation as to volume by each holder thereof), pursuant to Rule 144 and without the need for current public information as required by Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) (the "Registration Period").  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall ensure that, when filed and at all times while effective, each Registration Statement (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) and the prospectus (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) used in connection with such Registration Statement (1) shall not contain any 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 (in the case of prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading and (2) will disclose (whether directly or through incorporation by reference to other SEC filings to the extent permitted) all material information regarding the Company and its securities.

b.  The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements (collectively, “Registration Supplements”) to each Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statements, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statements current and effective at all times during the Registration Period and as required by applicable securities regulations, 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 Registration Statements until such time as all of such Registrable Securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in the Registration Statements. In the case of amendments and supplements to any Registration Statement which are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to this Section 3(b)) by reason of the Company filing a report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K or any analogous report under the 1934 Act, the Company shall have incorporated such report by reference into such Registration Statement, if applicable, or shall file such amendments or supplements with the SEC on the same day on which the 1934 Act report is filed which created the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement such Registration Statement. The Company consents to the use of the prospectus (including, without limitation, any supplement thereto) included in each Registration Statement in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act and with the securities or “blue sky” laws of the jurisdictions in which the Registrable Securities may be sold by the Investor, in connection with the resale of the Registrable Securities and for such period of time thereafter as such prospectus (including, without limitation, any supplement thereto) (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Securities Act) is required by the Securities Act to be delivered in connection with resales of Registrable Securities.

 

c. In the event that, whether due to a Registration Shortfall or an SEC Share Reduction or otherwise, the Initial Registration Statement or any Additional Registration does not initially cover, or at any time does not cover, the resale of all Registrable Securities  (the date of each of which is referred to as a “Registration Trigger Date”), or in the event that on any Trading Day (as defined in the Investment Agreement) (each such Trading Day is also referred to as a  "Registration Trigger Date") the number of shares available under a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement is otherwise insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities issued or issuable pursuant to the Transaction Documents, the Company shall amend the Registration Statement, or file a new Registration Statement (on the short form available therefore, if applicable), or both (each, an “Additional Registration Statement”), so as to cover at least 100% of the total number of Registrable Securities so issued or issuable as of the Registration Trigger Date (subject to an SEC Share Reduction, if applicable).  The Company shall prepare and file each Additional Registration Statement as soon as practicable following any Registration Trigger Date, but not later than the date that is sixty (60) days following the applicable Registration Trigger Date (the “Additional Registration Filing Deadline”) until such time as all Registrable Securities have been included in Registration Statements that have been declared effective and the prospectus contained therein is available for use by the Investor, provided that, if Cutback Shares are required to be included in the Additional Registration Statement, the “Additional Registration Filing Deadline” shall mean the later of (i) the date that is sixty (60) days after the date substantially all (as such term is then interpreted by the Commission) of the Registrable Securities registered under the immediately preceding Registration Statement are sold and (ii) the date that is six (6) months following the date of effectiveness of the most recently effective Registration Statement or Additional Registration Statement filed hereunder.  The Company shall use its best efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof, but in any event the Company shall cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective by the 90th calendar day following the date on which an additional Registration Statement is required to be filed hereunder (or the 120th calendar day after such date in the event that such Registration Statement is subject to review by the SEC) (the “Additional Registration Effectiveness Deadline”) or as promptly as practicable in the event the Company is required to increase its authorized shares.

d.  The Company shall furnish to the Investor and its legal counsel (i) promptly after the same is prepared and publicly distributed, filed with the Commission, or received by the Company, one copy of each Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, each preliminary prospectus and prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto, and, in the case of the Registration Statement referred to in Section 2(a), each letter written by or on behalf of the Company to the Commission or the staff of the Commission, and each item of correspondence from the Commission or the staff of the Commission, in each case relating to such Registration Statement (other than any portion of any thereof which contains information for which the Company has sought confidential treatment), and (ii) such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, and all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents as the Investor may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by the Investor. The Company will immediately notify the Investor in writing of the effectiveness of each Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment. The Company will promptly respond to any and all comments received from the Commission, with a view towards causing each Registration Statement or any amendment thereto to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable and shall file an acceleration request as soon as practicable, but no later than five (5) business days (the "Acceleration Request Deadline") following the resolution or clearance of all Commission comments or, if applicable, following notification by the Commission that any such Registration Statement or any amendment thereto will not be subject to review.

e.  The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statements under such other securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Investor shall reasonably request, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions;

 

f.    Within one (1) Business Day after each Registration Statement which covers Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities (with copies to the Investor) confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC in the form (“Notice of Effectiveness of Registration Statement”) attached hereto as Exhibit A.

g.  As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Company shall notify the Investor of the happening of any event, of which the Company has knowledge, as a result of which the prospectus included in any 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, and use its best efforts to promptly, but in any event within two (2) business days of such event (the “Registration Supplement Deadline”), prepare and file a supplement or amendment to any Registration Statement (also, a “Registration Supplement”) to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver such number of copies of such supplement or amendment and the related prospectus supplement to the Investor as the Investor may reasonably request; provided that, for not more than ten (10) consecutive days (or a total of not more than twenty (20) days in any twelve (12) month period), the Company may delay the disclosure of material non-public information concerning the Company (as well as prospectus or Registration Statement updating) the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Company, in the best interests of the Company (an "Allowed Delay"); provided, further, that the Company shall promptly (i) notify the Investor in writing of the existence of (but in no event, without the prior written consent of the Investor, shall the Company disclose to the Investor any of the facts or circumstances regarding) material non-public information giving rise to an Allowed Delay and (ii) advise the Investor in writing to cease all sales under such Registration Statement until the end of the Allowed Delay, provided the above actions are consistent with the requirements of the 1933 Act and/or 1934 Act or other applicable law. Upon expiration of the Allowed Delay, the Company shall again be bound by the first sentence of this Section 3(g) with respect to the information giving rise thereto.

h.  The Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of any Registration Statement, and, if such an order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest possible moment and to notify the Investor who holds Registrable Securities being sold (or, in the event of an underwritten offering, the managing underwriters) of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof.

i.  The Company shall permit a single firm of counsel designated by the Investor to review such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (as well as all requests for acceleration or effectiveness thereof), at Investor’s own cost, a reasonable period of time prior to their filing with the Commission (not less than three (3) business days but not more than ten (10) business days) and not file any document in a form to which such counsel reasonably objects and will not request acceleration of such Registration Statement without prior notice to such counsel.

n.  At the request of the Holder, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and any prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to change the plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement, provided that if such change is not legally necessary in order for the Investors to timely sell their Registrable Securities, the Company shall not be required to effect such amendments if they will  impose any additional requirements, including costs, on the Company.

o.  The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Investor of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement.

Except for a registration statement filed on behalf of the Investor pursuant to Section 2 or Section 3 of this Agreement, and except for an underwritten public offering, the Company will not file any registration statements or amend (in such a manner as to increase the number of shares registered) any already filed registration statement with the Commission or with state regulatory authorities without the consent of the Investor until the expiration of the "Exclusion Period," which shall be defined as the sooner of (i) the date that the Registration Statement shall have been current and available for use in connection with the resale of the Registrable Securities for a period of 180 days, or (ii) until all the Shares have been resold or transferred by the Subscribers pursuant to the Registration Statement or are eligible for immediate unrestricted resale pursuant to Rule 144, without volume limitations.

 (i) after the effective date of a Registration Statement, such Registration Statement ceases for any reason to remain continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement, or the Holder is otherwise not permitted to utilize the Prospectus therein to resell such Registrable Securities, for more than 10 consecutive calendar days or more than an aggregate of 20 calendar days (which need not be consecutive calendar days) during any 12-month period, or

(ii) any Additional Registration Statement required to be filed hereunder is not filed by the applicable Additional Registration Filing Deadline or it is not declared effective by the applicable Additional Registration Effectiveness Deadline, or

(iii) any Registration Supplement required to be filed hereunder is not filed by the applicable Registration Supplement Deadline,(any such failure or breach in (i) – (iii) above being referred to as a “Registration Failure,” and the date of each such failure being referred to as a “Registration Failure Date”), then, in addition to any other rights the Holder may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Registration Failure Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Registration Failure Date (if the applicable Registration Failure shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Registration Failure is cured, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount (“Registration Failure Liquidated Damages”) in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 2% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Investment Agreement for any unregistered Put Shares that are Registrable Securities then held by such Holder, until such time as the Registrable Securities either become registered for resale or become immediately resellable under Rule 144 without conditions or restrictions.

The liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of a Registration Failure.

5.  OBLIGATIONS OF THE INVESTOR.  In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Investor shall have the following obligations:

At least three (3) business days prior to the first anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement, the Company shall notify the Investor of the information the Company requires from each Investor.

b. The Investor, by the Investor's acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statements hereunder, unless the Investor has notified the Company in writing of the Investor's election to exclude all of the Investor's Registrable Securities from the Registration Statements.

d. The Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(g), the Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until the Investor's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(g) and, if so directed by the Company, the Investor shall deliver to the Company (at the expense of the Company) or destroy (and deliver to the Company a certificate of destruction) all copies in the Investor's possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice.

7.  INDEMNIFICATION.  In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:

a.  To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify, hold harmless and defend (i) the Investor, (ii) the directors, officers, partners, managers, members, employees, agents and each person who controls any Investor within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act, if any, (iii) any underwriter (as defined in the 1933 Act) for the Investor in connection with an underwritten offering pursuant to Section 2(d) hereof, and (iv) the directors, officers, partners, employees and each person who controls any such underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act, if any (each, an "Indemnified Person"), against any joint or several losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (collectively, together with actions, proceedings or inquiries by any regulatory or self-regulatory organization, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof, "Claims") to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration Statement or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus if used prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement, or contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the Commission) 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 (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, "Violations"). The Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 7(a): (i) shall not apply to a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs solely due to the inclusion by the Company in a Registration Statement of false or misleading information about the Investor, where such information was furnished in writing to the Company by the Investor for the purpose of inclusion in such Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (ii) 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; and (iii) with respect to any preliminary prospectus, shall not inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Person if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the preliminary prospectus was corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, such corrected prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3 hereof, and the Indemnified Person was promptly advised in writing not to use the incorrect prospectus prior to the use giving rise to a Violation and such Indemnified Person, notwithstanding such advice, used it. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investor pursuant to Section 10.

b.  Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Indemnified Person shall, if Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any the Company under this Section 7, deliver to the Company a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the Company shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Company so desires, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the Company and the Indemnified Person, as the case may be.

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that an Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the Company, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the Company, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person and the Company would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Company shall pay for only one separate legal counsel for the Indemnified Persons, and such legal counsel shall be selected by Investor and shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company, if the Investor is entitled to indemnification hereunder.  The failure to deliver written notice to the Company within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve the Company of any liability to the Indemnified Person under this Section 7, except to the extent that the Company is actually prejudiced in its ability to defend such action. The indemnification required by this Section 7 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as such expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred and is due and payable.

c. To the extent permitted by law, but in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Investor’s Subscription Amount (as defined in the Investment Agreement) the Investor will indemnify, hold harmless and defend (i) the Company, and (ii) the directors, officers, partners, managers, members, employees, or agents of the Company, if any (each, a  "Company Indemnified Person"), against any joint or several losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (collectively, together with actions, proceedings or inquiries by any regulatory or self-regulatory organization, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof, "Claims") to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based upon a Claim arising out of or based upon 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, which occurs due to the inclusion by the Company in a Registration Statement of false or misleading information about the Investor, where such information was furnished in writing to the Company by the Investor for the purpose of inclusion in such Registration Statement.

 

8.  CONTRIBUTION.  To the extent any indemnification by the Company is prohibited or limited by law, the Company agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 7 to the fullest extent permitted by law, based upon a comparative fault standard.

9.  REPORTS UNDER THE 1934 ACT.  With a view to making available to the Investor the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit the Investor to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration ("Rule 144"), the Company agrees to:

a.  make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

b. file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements (it being understood that nothing herein shall limit the Company's obligations under Section 4(c) of the Investment Agreement) and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and

c.  furnish to the Investor so long as the Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon written request, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

10.  [Omitted].

11.  AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.  Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with written consent of the Company, and the Holder. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 11 shall be binding upon the Investor and the Company.

12.   MISCELLANEOUS.

a.  A person or entity is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such person or entity owns of record such Registrable Securities. If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two or more persons or entities with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from the registered owner of such Registrable Securities.

b.  Any notices required or permitted to be given under the terms hereof shall be sent by certified or registered mail (return receipt requested) or delivered personally or by courier (including a recognized overnight delivery service) or by facsimile and shall be effective five days after being placed in the mail, if mailed by regular United States mail, or upon receipt, if delivered personally or by courier (including a recognized overnight delivery service) or by facsimile, in each case addressed to a party.  The addresses for such communications shall be:
