Section 2.                                           Demand Registration Rights.

(a)                                           Right to Request Registration or Take-Down.  After the expiration of the lock-up period set forth in the Lock-Up Agreement, if one or more Holders is not permitted to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act due to Parent’s failure to comply with the public information requirements of Rule 144, such Holder(s) may, by written notice to Parent, request (i) a registration statement (which may be in the form of a shelf registration statement) filed by Parent under the Securities Act to permit the sale of all or part of the Registrable Securities (a “Demand Registration”) or (ii) at any time that a shelf registration statement covering the Registrable Securities is effective, an offering of all or part of the Registrable Securities covered by that shelf registration statement (a “Demand Take-Down”); provided that the registration or offering is for shares representing at least a majority of the Registrable Securities outstanding at that time. If the Holder(s) so elect, by written notice to Parent, Parent will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down, as the case may be, to be in the form of a registered underwritten offering, which may include (at the option of the requesting Holders) but is not limited to a block trade.

(b)                                           Demand Registration Statement or Demand Take-Down. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to file, as soon as reasonably practicable, after Parent’s receipt of any request for a Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down, either (i) if Parent has no effective shelf registration statement on file with the SEC at the time of a request for a Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down, a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 or, if Form S-3 is not available for use by Parent, such other form under the Securities Act then available to Parent, registering for resale such number of shares of Registrable Securities as the Holder(s) have requested to be included in the Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down and have such registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving a request for a Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down, or (ii) if a Parent shelf registration statement covering Registrable  Securities is effective at the time of a request for a Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down,  a prospectus supplement covering such number of shares of Registrable Securities as requested by the Holder(s) to be included in the Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down; provided, in the case of clause (ii), that Parent has previously filed and there remains effective a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 or any successor form thereto then available to Parent that permits the Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down without the filing of a new registration statement.  Such registration statement referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above (including a prospectus, amendments and supplements to such registration statement or prospectus, including pre- and post-effective amendments, all exhibits thereto and all material incorporated by reference or deemed to be incorporated by reference, if any, in such registration statement) is hereinafter referred to as a “Demand Registration Statement.”  Parent shall give written notice to each Holder that did not initiate the Demand Registration at least 10 days prior to the initial filing of a Demand Registration Statement (or three days prior to the commencement of an underwritten offering if such Demand Registration is a Demand Take-Down) and, subject to Section 2(e), shall include in such Demand

3

Registration Statement or Demand Take-Down all Registrable Securities for which Parent has received a written request from Holders.

(c)                                            Number of Demand Registrations or Demand Take-Downs.  The Holder(s) shall be entitled to request a maximum of one Demand Registration (which may be a Demand Take-Down) pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof.  A registration shall not count as the permitted Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down (i) until (A) the related Demand Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC in the case of Section 2(b)(i) above and, if an immediate takedown under a shelf registration statement is contemplated thereunder, the prospectus supplement for such offering has been filed, or (B) the filing of the prospectus supplement contemplated in the case of Section 2(b)(ii) above, and (ii) unless the Demand Registration Statement remains effective for the periods set forth in Section 2(g) herein.

(d)                                           Selection of Underwriters. The Holder(s) will have the right to select the managing underwriter and managers to administer an offering pursuant to a Demand Registration Statement or a Demand Take-Down, subject to the prior approval of Parent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Holder(s) may not participate in an offering hereunder unless such Holder(s) (a) agree to sell such Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting agreement with the underwriters and (b) complete and execute all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, lock-up agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements customary for selling stockholders to enter into in secondary underwritten public offerings, provided that any underwriting agreement shall (i) contain such representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, Parent to and for the benefit of Holders as are customarily made by issuers to selling stockholders in secondary underwritten public offerings  and (ii) provide that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement also shall be conditions precedent to the obligations of such Holders (except, for the avoidance of doubt, Holders are not entitled to receive opinions of counsel or comfort letters to be delivered to underwriters pursuant to such conditions precedent).

(e)                                            Priority of Securities Offered Pursuant to Demand Registrations and Take-Downs.  Parent and other holders of equity securities of Parent shall have the right to participate in and include any equity securities of Parent in a Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down, subject to the priority provisions set forth in this Section 2(e).  If the managing underwriter of a Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down shall advise Parent that in its reasonable opinion the number of equity securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down exceeds the number that can be sold in such offering without having an adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such equity securities can be sold, then Parent shall include in such Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down the maximum number of shares of equity securities that such underwriter or agent, as applicable, advises can be so sold without having such adverse effect, allocated (i) first, to Registrable Securities requested by the Holder(s) to be included in such Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down (including all Holders that initiated the Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down and any other Holder that requests to be included in such Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down) allocated among such requesting Holder(s) on a pro rata basis or in such other manner as they may agree, provided that TPG may freely re-allocate any number of Registrable Securities held by it (or any of its Affiliates) which may be included in such Demand Registration to any of its Affiliates for

4

purposes of determining the pro rata allocation of the securities to be included in such Demand Registration, and (ii) second, among all shares of equity securities of Parent requested to be included in such Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down by any other persons (including securities to be sold for the account of Parent) allocated among such persons on a pro rata basis or in such manner as they may agree.

(f)                                             Restrictions on Demand Registrations and Demand Take-Downs.  Parent may postpone the filing or the effectiveness of a Demand Registration Statement or commencement of a Demand Take-Down if, based on the good faith judgment of Parent’s Board of Directors, such postponement is necessary in order to avoid premature disclosure of material non-public information the Board of Directors, after consultation with outside counsel to Parent, has in good faith determined would (i) be required to be made in any Registration Statement or report filed with the SEC by Parent so that such Registration Statement or report would not be materially misleading or contain a material omission or misstatement if such information is not included, (ii) such disclosure would not be required to be made at such time but for the filing of such Registration Statement; and (iii) the Issuer has a bona fide business purpose for not disclosing publicly; provided, however, that the Holder(s) requesting such Demand Registration Statement or Demand Take-Down shall be entitled, at any time after receiving notice of such postponement and before such Demand Registration Statement becomes effective or before such Demand Take-Down is commenced, to withdraw such request and, if such request is withdrawn, such Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down shall not count as the permitted Demand Registration or Demand Take-Down.  Parent shall provide prompt written notice to such Holder(s) of (x) any postponement of the filing or effectiveness of a Demand Registration Statement or commencement of a Demand Take-Down pursuant to this Section 2(f), (y) Parent’s decision to file or seek effectiveness of such Demand Registration Statement or commence such Demand Take-Down following such postponement and (z) the effectiveness of such Demand Registration Statement or commencement of such Demand Take-Down. Parent may defer the filing or effectiveness of a particular Demand Registration Statement or the commencement of a Demand Take-Down pursuant to this Section 2(f) only once during any 12-month period. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2(f), Parent may not postpone the filing or effectiveness of a Demand Registration Statement or the commencement of a Demand Take-Down past the date that is forty-five (45) days after the date on which the Board of Directors makes the determination that such matter should not be disclosed.

(g)                                            Effective Period of Demand Registrations. After the Demand Registration filed pursuant to this Agreement has become effective or a prospectus supplement contemplated in the case of Section 2(b)(ii) hereof has been filed, Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Demand Registration Statement continuously effective until all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Demand Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to such Demand Registration Statement in accordance with the plan of distribution set forth therein.

Section 3.                                           Piggyback Registration Rights.

(a)                                           Right to Piggyback. After the expiration of the lock-up period set forth in the Lock-Up Agreement, whenever Parent proposes to publicly sell in an underwritten offering or register for sale any of its equity securities, in either case pursuant to (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act (other than a registration statement on Form S-8 or Form S-4

5

or a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 if such registration statement is not being filed in connection with an underwritten offering, or, in each case, pursuant to any similar successor forms thereto), or (ii) a prospectus supplement covering its equity securities; provided, in the case of clause (ii), that Parent has previously filed and there remains effective a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 or any successor form thereto then available to Parent that permits the registered underwritten offering without the filing of a new registration statement (such registration statement referred to in clause (i) and (ii) above, including a prospectus, amendments and supplements to such registration statement or prospectus, including pre- and post-effective amendments, all exhibits thereto and all material incorporated by reference or deemed to be incorporated by reference, if any, in such registration statement, being hereinafter referred to as a “Piggyback Registration Statement”), whether for its own account or for the account of one or more securityholders of Parent (a “Piggyback Registration”), Parent shall give written notice to each Holder as soon as reasonably practicable but in no event less than ten business days prior to the initial filing of such Piggyback Registration Statement (or three days prior to the date of the commencement of any such offering if such Piggyback Registration is conducted as an underwritten offering) of its intention to effect such sale or registration and, subject to Sections 3(b) and 3(c) hereof, shall include in such Piggyback Registration Statement all Registrable Securities with respect to which Parent has received a written request from Holders. A Holder’s right to participate in any Piggyback Registration pursuant to an underwritten offering shall be conditioned on the Holder entering into an underwriting agreement in customary form and acting in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, provided that any underwriting agreement shall (i) contain such representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, Parent to and for the benefit of Holders as are customarily made by issuers to selling stockholders in secondary underwritten public offerings  and (ii) provide that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement also shall be conditions precedent to the obligations of such Holders (except, for the avoidance of doubt, Holders are not entitled to receive opinions of counsel or comfort letters to be delivered to underwriters pursuant to such conditions precedent).

(b)                                           Priority of Securities Offered Pursuant to Primary/SecondaryPiggyback Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is initiated as an underwritten primary registration on behalf of Parent, and the managing underwriter advises Parent that in its reasonable opinion the number of equity securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number that can be sold in such offering without having an adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such equity securities can be sold, then Parent shall include in such registration the maximum number of shares that such underwriter advises can be so sold without having such adverse effect, allocated (i) first, to the equity securities Parent proposes to sell, (ii) second, among Holders that request to be included in such Piggyback Registration, pro rata among the Holders on the basis of the percentage of the then outstanding shares requested to be registered by them or on such basis as the Holders may otherwise agree among themselves and Parent, provided that TPG may freely re-allocate any number of Registrable Securities held by it (or any of its Affiliates) which may be included in such Demand Registration to any of its Affiliates for purposes of determining the pro rata allocation of the securities to be included in such Demand Registration, and (iii) third, among other security holders of Parent, pro rata among such holder(s) on the basis of the percentage of the then outstanding shares requested to be registered by them or on such basis as such holder(s) may agree among themselves and the Parent.

6

(c)                                            Priority of Securities Offered Pursuant to Secondary Piggyback Registrations.  If a Piggyback Registration is initiated as a secondary underwritten registration on behalf of a holder of Parent’s securities other than a Holder, and the managing underwriter advises Parent that in its reasonable opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number that can be sold in such offering without having an adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such securities can be sold, then Parent shall include in such registration the maximum number of shares that such underwriter advises can be so sold without having such adverse effect, allocated (i) first, to the securities requested to be included therein by the holder(s) requesting such registration, (ii) second, among the Holders that request to be included in such Piggyback Registration, pro rata among the Holders on the basis of the percentage of the then outstanding shares requested to be registered by them or on such basis as the Holders may otherwise agree among themselves and Parent, provided that TPG may freely re-allocate any number of Registrable Securities held by it (or any of its Affiliates) which may be included in such Demand Registration to any of its Affiliates for purposes of determining the pro rata allocation of the securities to be included in such Demand Registration, and (iii) third, among Parent and other security holders of Parent, pro rata among such holder(s) and Parent on the basis of the percentage of the shares requested to be registered by them or on such basis as such holder(s) may agree among themselves and the Parent.

prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arising out of or based upon 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 under which they were made, not misleading or any violation of the Securities Act or state securities laws or rules thereunder by Parent relating to any action or inaction by Parent in connection with such registration; provided, however, that Parent shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, penalty, liability, claim, damage (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information about a Holder which is furnished to Parent by such Holder specifically for use in such registration statement. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability Parent may otherwise have.  Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Holder or any indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Holder.

(b)                                           Indemnification by the Holders.  Each Holder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section 5(a)) Parent, each member of the Board, each officer, employee and agent of Parent and each other Person, if any, who controls any of the foregoing within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, with respect to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact from such registration statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information about such Holder furnished to Parent by such Holder specifically for inclusion in such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement and has not been corrected in a subsequent registration statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto prior to or concurrently with the sale of the Registrable Securities to the Person asserting the claim; provided, however, that Holder shall not be liable for any amounts in excess of the net proceeds received by such Holder from sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement to which the claims relate, and provided, further, that the obligations of the Holders shall be several and not joint and several. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability Holder may otherwise have.  Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Parent or any indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by Parent.

(c)                                            Notices of Claims, etc.  Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 5, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action; provided, however, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 5, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice.  In case any such action is brought against an

12

indemnified party, unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, such indemnified party shall permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided, however, that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such person unless (A) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses or (B) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of such claim from the Person entitled to indemnification hereunder.  If such defense is not assumed by the indemnifying party as permitted hereunder, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).  If such defense is assumed by the indemnifying party pursuant to the provisions hereof, such indemnifying party shall not settle or otherwise compromise the applicable claim unless (i) such settlement or compromise contains a full and unconditional release of the indemnified party of all liability in respect to such claim or litigation or (ii) the indemnified party otherwise consents in writing.  An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (plus local counsel) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party, a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such additional counsel or counsels.

The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities.

(d)                                           Contribution.  If, for any reason, the foregoing indemnity is unavailable, or is insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, and the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  No indemnified party guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any indemnifying party who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.  In connection with any registration statement filed with the SEC by Parent, the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified person 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 indemnifying party or by the indemnified party, and by such party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, no Holder shall be required to contribute an amount greater than the net proceeds received by such Holder from sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement to which the claims relate (after taking into

13

account the amount of damages which such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any and all untrue or alleged untrue statements of material fact or omissions or alleged omissions of material fact made in any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto related to such sale of Registrable Securities).

(e)                                            No Exclusivity.  The remedies provided for in this Section 5 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity or pursuant to any other agreement.

Section 6.                                           Covenants Relating To Rule 144.  Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to file any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and to 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 Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time.  Parent shall, in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition by any Holder of any Shares pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, promptly cause the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Shares to be sold and the removal of any legend restricting transfers of the Shares, and enable certificates for such Shares to be issued (or, in the case of book-entry shares, make or cause to be made appropriate notifications on the books of Parent’s transfer agent) for such number of shares and registered in such names as the Holders may reasonably request and to provide a customary opinion of counsel required by Parent’s transfer agent.

Section 7.                                           Miscellaneous.

(a)                                           Other Registrations.  Parent shall not enter into any agreement with respect to its equity securities that adversely affects the priorities of the Holders in the event of an underwriter cut-back as set forth in Section 2(e), 3(b) and 3(c) herein.

(b)                                           Termination; Survival.  The rights of each Holder under this Agreement shall terminate upon the date that all of the Registrable Securities held by such Holder cease to be Registrable Securities, subject to the extension provisions provided for in Section 4(b) herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations of the parties under Section 4(a)(ix), 5, 6 and this Section 7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(c)                                            Governing Law.  This Agreement and any dispute, controversy or claim, whether sounding in contract or tort, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its principles of conflict of laws that could mandate the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.

(d)                                           Consent to Jurisdiction; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.  Each party hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and any state appellate court within the state of Delaware or, in the event that exclusive jurisdiction is vested with regard to any claim in the federal courts, any federal court sitting in the State of Delaware (any such court, a “Delaware Court”), for the purposes of any

14

suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby.  Parent irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in a Delaware Court, and hereby and thereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 7(a).

(f)                                             Amendments and Waivers.  The provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived at any time only by the written agreement of Parent and the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding.  Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any such Holders of any provision or condition of this Agreement must be made in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in writing.  Any amendment or waiver affected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon Parent and each Holder of Registrable Securities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendments may be made to this Agreement that adversely affect any Holder in a manner different than any other Holder without such Holder’s prior written consent.

(g)                                            Assignment.  Except as set forth herein, the rights and obligations of a Holder under this Agreement shall not be assignable by such Holder without prior, express written consent of Parent.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rights and obligations of any Holder may be assigned to any transferee permitted to receive Shares pursuant to the Lock-up Agreement.  This rights and obligations of the Parent under this Agreement shall not be assignable by the Parent without the consent of Holders of a majority of Registrable Securities then outstanding.

15
