2. Registration Rights

2.1 Required Registrations.

(a) At any time after the earlier of (i) the Initial Public Offering and (ii) the third anniversary of the date hereof, an Investor or Investors holding in the aggregate at least 30% of the Registrable Shares held by all Investors may request, in writing, that the Company effect the registration on Form S-1 (or any successor form) of Registrable Shares owned by such Investor or Investors; provided that the Registrable Shares for which registration has been requested have a reasonably anticipated aggregate offering price to the public of at least $5,000,000. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no request may be made under this Section 2.1(a) within 120 days after the effective date of a registration statement filed by the Company covering a firm commitment underwritten public offering (x) that holders of Registrable Shares have initiated pursuant to this Section 2.1(a) or Section 2.1(b) or in which the holders of Registrable Shares shall have been entitled to join pursuant to Section 2.1(c) or Section 2.2 and (y) in which there shall have been effectively registered all Registrable Shares as to which registration shall have been requested.

(b) At any time after the Company becomes eligible to file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form relating to secondary offerings), any Investor or Investors may request, in writing, that the Company effect the registration on Form S-3 (or such successor form) of Registrable Shares owned by such Investor or Investors having a reasonably anticipated aggregate offering price to the public of at least $1,000,000.

(c) Upon receipt of any request for registration pursuant to this Section 2, the Company shall promptly give written notice of such proposed registration to all other Investors. Such Investors shall have the right, by giving written notice to the Company within 30 days after the Company provides its notice, to elect to have included in such registration such of their Registrable Shares as such Investors may request in such notice of election. Thereupon, the Company shall, as expeditiously as possible, use its best efforts to effect the registration on the required registration form of all Registrable Shares which the Company has been requested to so register.

(d) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Shares covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or (b), as the case may be, and the Company shall include such information in its written notice referred to in Section 2.1(c). The right of any other Investor to registration pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or (b), as the case may be, shall be conditioned upon such other Investor’s participation in such underwriting on the terms set forth herein.

(e) The Company shall not be required to effect more than two registrations pursuant to Section 2.1(a). For purposes of this Section 2.1(e), a registration shall not be counted until such time as a Registration Statement covering the applicable Registrable Shares has been declared effective by the Commission (unless the Initiating Holders withdraw their request for such registration and elect not to pay the Registration Expenses therefor pursuant to Section 2.4).

 

3


(f) If, at the time of any request to register Registrable Shares by Initiating Holders pursuant to this Section 2.1, the Company shall furnish to the holders of Registrable Shares a certificate signed by the President or Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its shareholders for a registration statement to be filed in the near future, then the Company’s obligation to use its best efforts to file a registration statement shall be deferred for a period not to exceed 120 days, such right to delay a request to be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve-month period.

(g) The Initiating Holders shall have the right to select the managing underwriter(s) for any underwritten offering requested pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or (b), subject to the approval of the Company, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld.

(h) The Company shall be entitled to include in any underwritten public offering pursuant to a registration statement referred to in this Section 2.1 shares of Common Stock to be sold by the Company for its own account, except as and to the extent that, in the opinion of the managing underwriter, such inclusion would adversely affect the marketing of the Registrable Shares to be sold.

2.2 Incidental Registration.

(a) Whenever the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement (other than pursuant to Section 2.1) at any time and from time to time it will, prior to such filing, give written notice to all Stockholders of its intention to do so. Upon the written request of a Stockholder or Stockholders given within 20 days after the Company provides such notice, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause all Registrable Shares which the Company has been requested by such Stockholder or Stockholders to register to be registered under the Securities Act to the extent necessary to permit their sale or other disposition; provided that the Company shall have the right to postpone or withdraw any registration effected pursuant to this Section 2.2 without obligation to any Stockholder.

(b) If the registration for which the Company gives notice pursuant to Section 2.2(a) is a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Stockholders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 2.2(a). In such event, the right of any Stockholder to registration pursuant to Section 2.2 shall be conditioned upon such Stockholder’s participation in such underwriting on the terms set forth herein. All Stockholders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company and any other shareholders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for the underwriting by the Company; provided that such underwriting agreement shall not provide for indemnification or contribution obligations on the part of Stockholders greater than the obligations of the Stockholders pursuant to Section 2.5. If the total amount of securities requested to be included in an underwritten offering under Section 2.2 exceeds the amount of securities that the underwriters reasonably believe compatible with the success of the offering, no securities of any shareholder except Registrable Shares of Stockholders shall be included in such offering unless all Registrable Shares which the Stockholders have requested to be included are included, and the Company shall only be

 

4


required to include in the offering so many of the Registrable Shares of the Stockholders as the underwriters reasonably believe will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the Registrable Shares so included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling Stockholders according to the total amount of Registrable Shares owned by such selling Stockholders, or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by such selling Stockholders); provided that the number of Registrable Shares permitted to be included in such offering shall in any event be at least 80% of the securities included therein (based on aggregate market values). If any holder of Registrable Shares disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such person may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company, and any Registrable Shares or other securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration.

2.3 Registration Procedures.

(a) If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions of this Agreement to use its best efforts to effect the registration of any Registrable Shares under the Securities Act, the Company shall:

(i) file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Shares and use its best efforts to cause that Registration Statement to become and remain effective for 180 days from the effective date or such lesser period until all such Registrable Shares are sold;

(ii) as expeditiously as possible prepare and file with the Commission any amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus included in the Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective for 180 days from the effective date or such lesser period until all such Registrable Shares are sold;

(iii) as expeditiously as possible furnish to each Selling Stockholder such reasonable numbers of copies of the Prospectus, including any preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as such Selling Stockholder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Shares owned by such Selling Stockholder;

(iv) as expeditiously as possible use its best efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Shares covered by the Registration Statement under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such states as the Selling Stockholders shall reasonably request, and use commercially reasonable efforts to do any and all other acts and things reasonably requested by the Selling Stockholders that may be necessary or desirable to enable the Selling Stockholders to consummate the public sale or other disposition in such states of the Registrable Shares owned by the Selling Stockholder; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection with this paragraph (iv) to qualify as a foreign corporation or execute a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction;

 

5


(v) as expeditiously as possible use its best efforts to cause all such Registrable Shares to be listed on each securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Common Stock is then listed;

(vi) promptly provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Shares not later than the effective date of such registration statement;

(vii) promptly make available for inspection by the Selling Stockholders, any managing underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement, and any attorney or accountant or other agent retained by any such underwriter or selected by the Selling Stockholders, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such Registration Statement;

(viii) as expeditiously as possible, notify each Selling Stockholder, promptly after it shall receive notice thereof, of the time when such Registration Statement has become effective or a supplement to any Prospectus forming a part of such Registration Statement has been filed;

(ix) as expeditiously as possible following the effectiveness of such Registration Statement, notify each seller of such Registrable Shares of any request by the Commission for the amending or supplementing of such Registration Statement or Prospectus; and

(x) if requested by any managing underwriter or underwriters of Registrable Shares, participate and use its best efforts to cause its executive officers to participate in any “roadshow” or other marketing activities intended to aid in the successful disposition of the Registrable Shares.

(b) If the Company has delivered a Prospectus to the Selling Stockholders and after having done so the Prospectus is amended to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Company shall promptly notify the Selling Stockholders and, if requested, the Selling Stockholders shall immediately cease making offers of Registrable Shares and return all Prospectuses to the Company. The Company shall promptly provide the Selling Stockholders with revised Prospectuses and, following receipt of the revised Prospectuses, the Selling Stockholders shall be free to resume making offers of the Registrable Shares.

(c) In the event that, in the judgment of the Company, it is advisable to suspend use of a Prospectus included in a Registration Statement due to pending material developments or other events that have not yet been publicly disclosed and as to which the Company believes public disclosure would be detrimental to the Company, the Company shall notify all Selling Stockholders to such effect, and, upon receipt of such notice, each such Stockholder shall immediately discontinue any sales of Registrable Shares pursuant to such Registration Statement until such Stockholder has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus or until such Stockholder is advised in writing by the Company that the then current

 

6


Prospectus may be used and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in such Prospectus. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company shall not exercise its rights under this Section 2.3(c) to suspend sales of Registrable Shares for a period in excess of 90 days in any 365-day period.

2.4 Allocation of Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses for all registrations under this Agreement. For purposes of this Section, the term “Registration Expenses” shall mean all expenses incurred by the Company in complying with this Agreement, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, exchange listing fees, printing expenses, fees and expenses of counsel for the Company and the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel selected by the Selling Stockholders to represent the Selling Stockholders, state Blue Sky fees and expenses, and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration, but excluding underwriting discounts, selling commissions and the fees and expenses of Selling Stockholders’ own counsel (other than the counsel selected to represent all Selling Stockholders).

2.5 Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) In the event of any registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless the seller of such Registrable Shares, each of its officers, partners and employees, each underwriter of such Registrable Shares, and each other person, if any, who controls such seller or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such seller, officer, partner, employee, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, state securities or Blue Sky laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Shares were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; and the Company will reimburse such seller, officer, partner, employee, underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by such seller, officer, partner, employee, underwriter or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or omission made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus or prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company, in writing, by or on behalf of such seller, officer, partner, employee, underwriter or controlling person specifically for use in the preparation thereof.

(b) In the event of any registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, each seller of Registrable Shares, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers

 

7


and each underwriter (if any) and each person, if any, who controls the Company or any such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company, such directors and officers, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, Exchange Act, state securities or Blue Sky laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Shares were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, if the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to such seller furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such seller specifically for use in connection with the preparation of such Registration Statement, prospectus, amendment or supplement; provided, however, that the obligations of a Stockholder hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds to such Stockholder of Registrable Shares sold in connection with such registration.

(c) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided, that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld); and, provided, further, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is adversely affected by such failure. The Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall pay such expense if representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between the Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding; provided further that in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be required to pay the expenses of more than one law firm per jurisdiction as counsel for the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party also shall be responsible for the expenses of such defense if the Indemnifying Party does not elect to assume such defense. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which 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 of such claim or litigation, and no Indemnified Party shall consent to entry of any judgment or settle such claim or litigation without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.5 is due in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party in respect to any losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party shall,

 

8


in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such party may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Stockholders on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company and the Stockholders shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact related to information supplied by the Company or the Stockholders and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Stockholders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph of Section 2.5, (i) in no case shall any one Stockholder be liable or responsible for any amount in excess of the net proceeds received by such Stockholder from the offering of Registrable Shares and (ii) the Company shall be liable and responsible for any amount in excess of such proceeds; provided, however, that no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties under this Section, notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission so to notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought shall not relieve such party from any other obligation it or they may have thereunder or otherwise under this Section. No party shall be liable for contribution with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or claim settled without its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

2.6 Other Matters with Respect to Underwritten Offerings. In the event that Registrable Shares are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement in an underwritten offering pursuant to Section 2.1, the Company agrees to (a) enter into an underwriting agreement containing customary representations and warranties with respect to the business and operations of the Company and customary covenants and agreements to be performed by the Company, including without limitation customary provisions with respect to indemnification by the Company of the underwriters of such offering; (b) at the request of a Selling Stockholder, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its legal counsel to render customary opinions to the underwriters and the Selling Stockholders with respect to the Registration Statement; and (c) at the request of a Selling Stockholder, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its independent public accounting firm to issue customary “cold comfort letters” to the underwriters and the Selling Stockholders with respect to the Registration Statement.

2.7 Information by Holder. Each holder of Registrable Shares included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such holder and the distribution proposed by such holder as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement.

 

9


2.8 “Stand-Off” Agreement; Confidentiality of Notices. Each Stockholder, if requested by the Company and the managing underwriter of an offering by the Company of Common Stock or other equity securities of the Company, shall agree not to sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Registrable Shares or other equity securities of the Company held by such Stockholder (other than Securities acquired in or after such offering) for a specified period (not to exceed 180 days), following the effective date of the Registration Statement relating to such offering; provided that all stockholders of the Company then holding at least 1% of the outstanding Common Stock (on an as-converted basis) and all officers and directors of the Company enter into similar agreements; and provided further that such agreement shall apply only to the Initial Public Offering. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Shares or other securities subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of such 180 day period. Any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of such agreements (including this agreement) by the Company or the managing underwriter shall apply to all persons subject to such agreements on a pro rata basis, based upon the number of shares held by each subject to such agreements. Any Stockholder receiving any written notice from the Company regarding the Company’s plans to file a Registration Statement shall treat such notice confidentially and shall not disclose such information to any person other than as necessary to exercise its rights under this Agreement.

2.9 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights and Subsequent Offerings.

(a) The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Stockholders holding a majority of the Registrable Shares then held by all Stockholders, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company which grants such holder or prospective holder rights to cause the Company to register any of its securities or to include securities of the Company in any Registration Statement.

(b) The Company may not cause any other registration of securities for its own account (other than a registration effected solely to implement an employee benefit plan or a registration of securities of the Company issued or transferred to shareholders of another company in connection with the acquisition of such other company by the Company) which would become effective less than six months after the effective date of any registration requested pursuant to Section 2.1 to be initiated after receiving such request.

2.10 Rule 144 Requirements. After the earliest of (i) the closing of the sale of securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration Statement, (ii) the registration by the Company of a class of securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, or (iii) the issuance by the Company of an offering circular pursuant to Regulation A under the Securities Act, the Company agrees to:

(a) make and keep current public information about the Company available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

(b) use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and

 

10


(c) furnish to any holder of Registrable Shares upon request (i) 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 (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and (iii) such other reports and documents of the Company as such holder may reasonably request to avail itself of any similar rule or regulation of the Commission allowing it to sell any such securities without registration.

3. Right Of First Refusal

3.1 Rights of Investors.

(a) So long as at least 2,500,000 Shares are outstanding (such minimum number of Shares to be adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or similar events), the Company shall not issue, sell or exchange, agree to issue, sell or exchange, or reserve or set aside for issuance, sale or exchange, (i) any shares of its Common Stock, (ii) any other equity securities of the Company, including, without limitation, shares of preferred stock, (iii) any option, warrant or other right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any equity securities of the Company, or (iv) any debt securities convertible into capital stock of the Company (collectively, the “Offered Securities”), unless in each such case the Company shall have first complied with this Section 3.1. The Company shall deliver to each Investor a written notice of any proposed or intended issuance, sale or exchange of Offered Securities (the “Offer”), which Offer shall (i) identify and describe the Offered Securities, (ii) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (iii) identify the persons or entities (if known) to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged and (iv) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with such Investor (A) a pro rata portion of the Offered Securities determined by dividing the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock then held by such Investor (giving assumed effect to the conversion of all shares of convertible preferred stock then held) by the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (giving assumed effect to the conversion of all outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock and the exercise of all outstanding warrants, options and rights to purchase shares) (the “Basic Amount”), and (B) any additional portion of the Offered Securities attributable to the Basic Amounts of other Investors as such Investor shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should the other Investors subscribe for less than their Basic Amounts (the “Undersubscription Amount”). The foregoing notwithstanding, in the case of Polaris Venture Partners III, L.P., Polaris Venture Partners Entrepreneurs’ Fund III, L.P. and Polaris Venture Partners Founders’ Fund III, L.P. (together, “Polaris”), the aggregate Basic Amount shall equal 23.7% of the Offered Securities for so long as Polaris purchases the full amount of its aggregate Basic Amount of all Offered Securities and until such time as Polaris’s aggregate Basic Amount would, if determined pursuant to the preceding sentence, equal or exceed 23.7% of the Offered Securities; provided, that if Polaris does not subscribe for the full amount of such Basic Amount, then the other Investors shall not have the undersubscription rights set forth above except with respect to the amount, if any, by which Polaris subscribes for less than the amount of Offered Securities that its Basic Amount would have been if determined pursuant to the preceding sentence. Each Investor shall have the right, for a period of 30 days following delivery of the Offer, to purchase or acquire, at the price and upon the other terms specified in the Offer, the number or amount of Offered Securities described above. The Offer by its terms shall remain open and irrevocable for such 30-day period.

 

11


(b) To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, an Investor must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the 30-day period of the Offer, setting forth the portion of the Investor’s Basic Amount that such Investor elects to purchase and, if such Investor shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount (if any) that such Investor elects to purchase (the “Notice of Acceptance”). If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Investors are less than the total Offered Securities, then each Investor who has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, that if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceeds the difference between the Offered Securities and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the “Available Undersubscription Amount”), each Investor who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled to purchase only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Undersubscription Amount subscribed for by such Investor bears to the total Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for by all Investors, subject to rounding by the Board of Directors to the extent it deems reasonably necessary.

(c) In the event that Notices of Acceptance are not given by the Investors in respect of all the Offered Securities, the Company shall have 90 days from the expiration of the period set forth in Section 3.1(a) above to issue, sell or exchange all or any part of such Offered Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been given by the Investors (the “Refused Securities”), but only to the offerees or purchasers described in the Offer (if so described therein) and only upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and interest rates) which are not more favorable, in the aggregate, to the acquiring person or persons or less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Offer.

(d) In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities (any such sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified in Section 3.1(c) above), then each Investor may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, reduce the number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that the Investor elected to purchase pursuant to Section 3.1(b) above multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold to Investors pursuant to Section 3.1(b) above prior to such reduction) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the amount of all Offered Securities. In the event that any Investor so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been offered to the Investors in accordance with Section 3.1(a) above.
