4.Registration Rights. Upon written request from the Purchaser, the Issuer and the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to file, within thirty (30) days of receipt of such written notice from the Purchaser, a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the “S-3 Registration Statement”) to register re-sales of the Registrable Securities (as defined below); provided, that the Issuer and the Company may postpone the filing of the S-3 Registration Statement if, in the good faith judgment of the Company, (i) the postponement is necessary to avoid premature disclosure of any material information, (ii) the filing would interfere with a material pending or expected corporate transaction, (iii) the postponement is necessary to permit the Company sufficient time to prepare required filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”); or (iv) the filing would otherwise be materially adverse to the Company or the Issuer. The Issuer and the Company shall provide the Purchaser and its counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on (i) any S-3 Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Securities prepared and filed with the SEC to satisfy the requirements in this Agreement, and (ii) any response by the Issuer or the Company to any SEC comments regarding the S-3 Registration Statement, in each case reasonably in advance (and in any event no less than one (1) business day in advance) of transmission to, or filing thereof with, the SEC. The Issuer and the Company agree to consider in good faith all changes to the S-3 Registration Statement or any response to an SEC comment that the Purchaser may request in writing to the extent such changes are required (in the reasonable judgment of counsel for the Issuer and Company) by the Securities Act or for the Issuer and the Company to comply with their obligations hereunder. The obligations under this Section 4 shall commence

on the Closing Date and terminate on the date that is the earliest to occur of (i) the date when all of the Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to the S-3 Registration Statement; (ii) the date when the holding period under Rule 144(d) under the Securities Act applicable to holders of the Notes that are not Affiliates (as defined in Rule 144) of the Company or the Issuer has expired; and (iii) the date when all of the Registrable Securities have ceased to be outstanding (whether as a result of the repurchase and cancellation, conversion or otherwise).

“Registrable Securities” means (i) until the Notes have been converted into Common Shares, the Notes, the Note Guarantee and the Common Shares into which the Notes are convertible or which are issuable upon a conversion or repurchase of the Notes in accordance with the Indenture (including any other securities into or for which such Common Shares have been converted or exchanged, or into which the Notes may be converted or exchanged in accordance with the Indenture); and (ii) at all times subsequent to the conversion of the Notes into Common Shares, the Common Shares and any securities into or for which such Common Shares have been converted or exchanged, and any security issued with respect thereto upon any share dividend, split or similar event.

5.Indemnification. The Issuer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not the Purchaser is a party thereto) and expenses (including reasonable costs of investigations and legal expenses) (each a “Loss” and collectively “Losses”), to which the Purchaser may become subject, to the extent that such Losses arise out of or are based upon a breach by the Issuer of any representation or covenant contained in this Agreement. The indemnity provided in this Section 5 shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Purchaser and shall survive the purchase of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement and any sale or transfer by the Purchaser of the Notes or any securities of the Issuer or the Company into which such Notes may be converted or exchanged.

EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.

10.Amendment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the terms hereof may be amended, supplemented, waived or modified except by an instrument in writing signed by all the parties hereto.

11.Damages. Each party agrees that monetary damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by any party and that each non-breaching party shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive, rescissionary or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original instrument, but all such counterparts will together constitute but one and the same instrument.
