The restrictions contained in this Section 4.10 shall not apply to (i) the Shares to be sold hereunder, (ii) the issuance by the Company of shares of capital stock of the Company upon the exercise of a stock option or warrant or the conversion or vesting of a security outstanding on the date hereof, (iii) the issuance by the Company of equity awards of the Company under any equity compensation plan of the Company, (iv) the issuance by the Company of shares of capital stock of the Company or securities convertible into, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive shares of capital stock of the Company in connection with the acquisition by the Company of the securities, business, technology, property or other assets of another person or entity, (v) the entry into the purchase agreement governing the Concurrent Rule 144A Offering or the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of the securities issued in the Concurrent Rule 144A Offering, (vi) the sale of shares of capital stock of the Company to cover the payment of exercise prices or the payment of taxes associated with the exercise or vesting of equity awards under any equity compensation plan of the Company, or (vii) the filing of a post-effective amendment to the Company’s registration statements on Forms S-3 (Reg. Nos. 333-223425, 333-225217 and 333-226514) and Forms S-8 (Reg. No. 333-219203, 333-223428 and 333-226440) with the Commission to maintain effectiveness of such registration statements, provided that in each of (ii) and (iii) above, the underlying shares of capital stock of the Company held by the Company’s directors and officers shall be restricted from sale pursuant to the Lock-up Agreement (defined below). In connection with the Concurrent Rule 144A Offering, the Company has caused to be delivered to JMP Securities LLC prior to the date of this Agreement a letter from each of the Company’s directors and executive officers restricting certain acquisitions and dispositions of Company securities (each, a “Lock-Up Agreement”).

5.1 Registration Procedures and Expenses; Liquidated Damages for Certain Events.
 
(a) The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission, as promptly as reasonably practicable following Closing, but in no event later than 30 days following the date hereof (the “Initial Filing Date”), a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any successor to Form S-3), covering the resale of the Registrable Securities (as defined below) (the “S-3 Registration Statement”) and as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter but in no event later than 90 days following the date hereof (180 days in the event of a review of the S-3 Registration Statement by the SEC), to effect such registration and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all Registrable Securities held by the Purchasers. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Registrable Securities” shall mean (i) the Shares; and (iii) any Common Stock of the Company issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, any Shares. In the event that Form S-3 (or any successor form) is or becomes unavailable to register the resale of the Registrable Securities at any time prior to the expiration of the Purchasers’ registration rights pursuant to Article V, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Closing but in no event later than the Initial Filing Date, a registration statement on Form S-1 (or any successor to Form S-1), covering the resale of the Registrable Securities (the “S-1 Registration Statement” and collectively the S-3 Registration Statement, the “Registration Statement”) and as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter but in no event later than 60 days following the date hereof (120 days in the event of a review of the S-1 Registration Statement by the SEC), to effect such registration and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all Registrable Securities held by the Purchasers. If the Company is not eligible to use Form S-3 at Initial Filing Date, and the Company subsequently becomes eligible to use Form S-3 during the Effectiveness Period (as defined below), the Company shall file, as promptly as reasonably practicable, a new S-3 Registration Statement covering the resale of the Registrable Securities and replace the S-1 Registration Statement with the new S-3 Registration Statement upon the effectiveness of the new S-3 Registration Statement.
 
(b) The Company shall, during the Effectiveness Period, use its reasonable best efforts to:
 
(i) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary or advisable to keep the Registration Statement current and effective for the resale of the Registrable Securities held by a Purchaser for a period ending on the earlier of (i) the second anniversary of the Closing Date, (ii) the date on which all Registrable Securities may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 during any three-month period without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) or (iii) such time as all Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to a registration statement or Rule 144 (collectively, the “Effectiveness Period”). The Company shall notify each Purchaser promptly upon the Registration Statement and each post-effective amendment thereto being declared effective by the Commission and advise each Purchaser that the form of Prospectus contained in the Registration Statement or post-effective amendment thereto, as the case may be, at the time of effectiveness meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act or that it intends to file a Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act that meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act;
 
(ii) furnish to each Purchaser with respect to the Registrable Securities registered under the Registration Statement such number of copies of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (including supplemental prospectuses) filed with the Commission in conformance with the requirements of the Securities Act and other such documents as such Purchaser may reasonably request, in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of all or any of the Registrable Securities by such Purchaser;
 
(iii) make any necessary blue sky filings;

(iv) pay the expenses incurred by the Company and the Purchasers in complying with Article V, including, all registration and filing fees, FINRA fees, exchange listing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration (but excluding attorneys’ fees of any Purchaser and any and all underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities by the Purchasers);
 
(v) advise the Purchasers, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge of the issuance of any stop order by the Commission delaying or suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of the initiation of any proceeding for that purpose; and it will promptly use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal at the earliest possible moment if such stop order should be issued; and
 
(vi) with a view to making available to the Purchaser the benefits of Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit the Purchasers to sell Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company covenants and agrees to: (i) make and keep public information available, as such term is understood and defined in Rule 144, until the earlier of (A) such date as all of the Registrable Securities qualify to be resold immediately pursuant to Rule 144 or any other rule of similar effect during any three-month period without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) or (B) such date as all of the Registrable Securities shall have been resold pursuant to Rule 144 (and may be further resold without restriction); (ii) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and under the Exchange Act; and (iii) furnish to any Purchaser upon request, as long as such Purchaser owns any Registrable Securities, (A) a written statement by the Company as to whether it has complied with the reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (B) a copy of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and (C) such other information as may be reasonably requested in order to avail the Purchaser of any rule or regulation of the Commission that permits the selling of any such Registrable Securities without registration.
 
The Company understands that the Purchasers disclaim being an underwriter, but acknowledges that a determination by the Commission that a Purchaser is deemed an underwriter shall not relieve the Company of any obligations it has hereunder. The Company will not name any Purchaser as an underwriter in a Registration Statement or Prospectus.
 
(c) If (i) the Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to the Initial Filing Date, or (ii) the Company fails to file with the Commission a request for acceleration of the Registration Statement in accordance with Rule 461 under the Securities Act, within five Trading Days after the date the Company is first notified (orally or in writing) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review or comment, or (iii) prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement, the Company fails to file a pre-effective amendment and otherwise respond in writing to comments made by the Commission in respect of such Registration Statement within 21 days after the receipt of comments by or notice from the Commission that such amendment or resolution of such comments is required in order for such Registration Statement to be declared effective, or (iv) there occurs the issuance of by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose or (v) at any time during the period commencing from the six-month anniversary of the date hereof and ending at such time that all of the Registrable Securities may be resold during any three-month period without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1), the Company shall fail to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) (any of the foregoing being referred to as an “Event”, and for purposes of clauses (i) and (v), the date on which such Event occurs, and for purpose of clause (ii) the date on which such five Trading Day period is exceeded, and for purpose of clause (iii) the date which such 21-day period is exceeded, being the “Event Date”), then except during any period of time during which the Registrable Securities may be resold pursuant to Rule 144 without volume limitations, in addition to any other rights the Purchasers may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay to each Purchaser an amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to the product of 1.0% multiplied by the Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser with respect to the Registrable Securities affected by such Event and held by such Purchaser on such Event Date or monthly anniversary thereof, up to a maximum of 10.0% of the Purchase Price for such Registrable Securities provided that such maximum shall not apply if the applicable Event is the Event described in clause (v). If the Company fails to pay any liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full within seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 12% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Purchasers, accruing daily from the date such liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. The liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event.
