     SECTION 2.2 Registration Procedures; Filings; Information. So long as any Registrable Securities remain outstanding:

     (a) After the filing of the Prospectus Supplement, the Company will promptly notify

JPM of any stop order issued or threatened by the Commission and take all reasonable actions required to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered.

     (b) The Company will use its best efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities under such other state securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions in the United States (where an exemption is not available) as JPM reasonably (in light of JPM’s intended plan of distribution) requests and (ii) cause such Registrable Securities to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or 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 JPM to consummate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by JPM; provided that the Company will not be required to (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this paragraph (b), (B) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (C) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction.

     (c) The Company will promptly notify JPM of such Registrable Securities, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the occurrence of an event (a “Notifiable Event”) requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances then existing, not misleading and promptly make available to JPM a reasonable number of copies of any such supplement or amendment. In addition, at the request of JPM, the Company will confirm that no stop order has been issued or threatened by the Commission and that no Notifiable Event has occurred.

     (d) [Intentionally Omitted.]

     (e) The Company will otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its securityholders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering a period of twelve (12) months, beginning within three (3) months after the effective date of the registration statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 of the Commission promulgated thereunder (or any successor rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission).

     (f) The Company will use its best efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed.

     (g) The Company will not be required to enter in an underwriting or other similar agreement with respect to the disposition of Registrable Securities.

     (h) The Company will, if requested, prior to filing an amendment or supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus, furnish to JPM copies of such amendment or supplement as proposed to be filed, and thereafter furnish to JPM one conformed copy of such

amended or supplemented registration statement, and such number of copies of the prospectus included in such amended or supplemented registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as JPM may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by JPM.

     (i) Upon JPM’s surrender of any Registrable Securities to the Company, together with a certification stating that it sold such Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus and the prospectus delivery requirements have been satisfied, the Company shall promptly instruct its transfer agent to deliver to JPM or to such account or accounts specified by JPM one or more new Shares which shall not bear any legend restricting the transfer thereof, except for a legend with respect to certain limitations on ownership, transfer or redemption set forth in the Company’s charter.

     The Company may require, as a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company under the Agreement, JPM to promptly furnish in writing to the Company such information regarding JPM, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended methods of distribution of the Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request and such other information as may be legally required in connection with such registration.

     JPM agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of, or JPM obtains knowledge of, the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 2.2(c) hereof, JPM will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement and prospectus covering such Registrable Securities until JPM’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 2.2(c) hereof, and, if so directed by the Company, JPM will deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in JPM’s possession, of the most recent prospectus and each amendment thereof and supplement thereto covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. JPM agrees that it will immediately notify the Company at any time when a prospectus relating to the registration of such Registrable Securities is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of an event known to JPM as a result of which information previously furnished by JPM to the Company in writing for inclusion in such prospectus contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. In the event the Company shall give such notice, the Company shall extend the period during which such registration statement shall be maintained effective (including the period referred to in Section 2.1 hereof) by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of notice pursuant to Section 2.2(c) hereof to the date when the Company shall make available to JPM a prospectus supplemented or amended to conform with the requirements of Section 2.2(c) hereof.

     SECTION 2.3 Registration Expenses. In connection with any registration statement required to be filed hereunder, the Company shall pay the following registration expenses incurred in connection with the registration hereunder (the “Registration Expenses”): (i) all registration and filing fees, (ii) fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or blue sky laws (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with blue sky

qualifications of the Registrable Securities), (iii) printing expenses, (iv) internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), (v) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed, (vi) reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and customary fees and expenses for independent certified public accountants retained by the Company and (vii) the reasonable fees and expenses of any special experts retained by the Company in connection with such registration. The Company shall have no obligation to pay any underwriting fees, discounts or commissions attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities, or any out-of-pocket expenses of JPM (or the agents who manage their accounts) or any transfer taxes relating to the registration or sale of the Registrable Securities.

     SECTION 2.4 Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless JPM, its officers, directors and agents, and each Person, if any, who controls JPM within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission of material fact so made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by JPM or on JPM’s behalf expressly for inclusion therein.

     SECTION 2.5 Indemnification by JPM. JPM agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to JPM, but only with respect to information relating to JPM furnished in writing by JPM or on JPM’s behalf expressly for use in any registration statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus. In case any action or proceeding shall be brought against the Company or its officers, directors or agents or any such controlling person, in respect of which indemnity may be sought against JPM, JPM shall have the rights and duties given to the Company, and the Company or its officers, directors or agents or such controlling person shall have the rights and duties given to JPM, by Section 2.4 hereof.

     SECTION 2.6 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Sections 2.4 or 2.5 hereof, such person (an “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (an “Indemnifying Party”) in writing and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party,

and shall assume the payment of all fees and expenses. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the Indemnifying Party has not employed counsel to assume the defense of such proceeding within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the proceeding, or (iii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any time for all such Indemnified Parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Indemnified Parties, such firm shall be designated in writing by (i) in the case of Persons indemnified pursuant to Section 2.4 hereof, by JPM and (ii) in the case of Persons indemnified pursuant to Section 2.5 hereof, the Company. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Parties from and against any loss or liability (to the extent stated above) by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Party shall have requested an Indemnifying Party to reimburse the Indemnified Party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the third sentence of this paragraph, the Indemnifying Party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than thirty (30) Business Days after receipt by such Indemnifying Party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such Indemnifying Party shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such proceeding.

     SECTION 2.7 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Sections 2.4 or 2.5 hereof is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as between the Company on the one hand and JPM on the other, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and of JPM in connection with such 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 on the one hand and of JPM on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or JPM, and the Company’s and JPM’s relative

intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

     The Company and JPM agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.7 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 the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in Sections 2.4 and 2.5 hereof shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.7, JPM shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the securities of JPM were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which JPM has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 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.

     SECTION 2.8 Rule 144. The Company covenants that it will file any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and that it will take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable Holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (a) Rule 144 or (b) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission.

     SECTION 2.9 Holdback Agreements.

     (a) If the Company determines in its good faith judgment that the filing of the Shelf Registration Statement or the use of any related prospectus would require the disclosure of non-public material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential or the disclosure of which would impede the Company’s ability to consummate a material action, and that the Company is not otherwise required by applicable securities laws or regulations to disclose, upon written notice of such determination by the Company, the rights of JPM to offer, sell or distribute any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement or to require the Company to take action with respect to the registration or sale of any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement shall be suspended until the earlier of (i) the date upon which the Company notifies JPM in writing that suspension of such rights for the grounds set forth in this Section 2.9(a) is no longer necessary and (ii) 120 days. The Company agrees to give such notice as promptly as practicable following the date that such suspension of rights is no longer necessary.

     (b) If all reports required to be filed by the Company pursuant to the Exchange Act have not been filed by the required date without regard to any extension, or if the consummation of any business combination by the Company has occurred or is probable for purposes of Rule 3-05, Rule 3-14 or Article 11 of Regulation S-X, upon written notice thereof by the

Company to JPM, the rights of JPM to offer, sell or distribute any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement or to require the Company to take action with respect to the registration or sale of any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement shall be suspended until the date on which the Company has filed such reports or obtained and filed the financial information required by Rule 3-05, Rule 3-14 or Article 11 of Regulation S-X to be included or incorporated by reference, as applicable, in the Shelf Registration Statement, and the Company shall notify JPM as promptly as practicable when such suspension is no longer required.
