An adjustment under this Section 6.2 with respect to any Indefinite Convertible Securities shall be made, if appropriate, at the time the number of shares of Indefinite Common Stock becomes known or fixed.

 

6.3         Issuance of Convertible Securities. For purposes of Section 6.1, the issuance of any Convertible Securities and/or the amendment of any Convertible Securities shall be deemed to be the issuance of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Convertible Securities and shall trigger an adjustment under Section 6.1, as applicable. No further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of the Common Stock under such Convertible Securities if the adjustment has already been made.

 

6.4         Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any time after the Original Issue Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time after the Original Issue Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant will be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 6.4 shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

6.5         Other Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by this Section 6 (as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company) but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then the Company’s Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant so as to protect the rights of the Holder of the Warrant; provided that no such adjustment will increase the Exercise Price or decrease the number of Warrant Shares issuable as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 6.

 

6.6         Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to Section 5 or this Section 6, the Company at its expense will promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number of type of Warrant Shares or other securities, cash or property issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Company’s transfer agent.

 

6.7         Notice of Corporate Events. If the Company (i) declares a dividend or any other distribution of cash, securities or other property in respect of the Common Stock, including without limitation any granting of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock of the Company or any Subsidiary, (ii) authorizes or approves, enters into any agreement contemplating or solicits shareholder approval for (x) any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (y) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another person) pursuant to which holders of Commons Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (z) any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property or (iii) authorizes the voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then the Company shall deliver to the Holder a notice describing the material terms and conditions of such transaction, at least ten Business Days prior to the earlier of the applicable record or effective date on which a Person would need to hold Common Stock in order to participate in or vote with respect to such transaction, and the Company will take all steps reasonably necessary in order to insure that the Holder is given the practical opportunity to exercise this Warrant prior to such time so as to participate in or vote with respect to such transaction; provided, however, that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be described in such notice.

 

7.           Registration Rights

 

7.1         Registration on Request. Subject to Section 7.1.6 below, at any time after the Original Issue Date, the holder or holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities (the “Initiating Holders”), may request the Company to effect the registration under the Securities Act of the resale of all or part of such Initiating Holders’ Registrable Securities on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415. Such request shall specify the intended method of disposition thereof.

 

- 13 -
 

 

7.1.1       The Company will promptly give written notice of such requested registration to all holders of Registrable Securities, who shall have the right to request that their Registrable Securities be included in the registration statement requested pursuant to this Section 7.1 upon written notice to the Company made within twenty (20) days after receipt of the Company’s written notice. Thereupon, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of the Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register for disposition in accordance with the intended method of disposition stated in the Initiating Holder’s request; all to the extent requisite to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods thereof as aforesaid), of the Registrable Securities to be so registered, which shall be paid for by the Company in accordance with Section 7.1.3 below.

 

7.1.2       Registrations under this Section 7.1 shall be on such appropriate registration form of the Commission (i) as shall be selected by the Company and (ii) as shall permit the disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition specified in the Initiating Holders’ request for such registration. The Company agrees to include in any such registration statement all information which holders of Registrable Securities being registered shall reasonably request.

 

7.1.3       The Company shall not be obligated to effect more than one registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 7.1. A registration requested pursuant to this Section 7.1 shall not be deemed to have been effected (i) unless a registration statement with respect thereto has become effective; provided, that a registration which does not become effective after being filed by the Company pursuant to this Section 7.1 solely by reason of the refusal to proceed by the Initiating Holders (other than a refusal to proceed based upon the advice of counsel relating to a matter with respect to the Company) shall be deemed to have been effected by the Company at the request of the Initiating Holders unless the Initiating Holders shall have elected to pay all Registration Expenses in connection with such registration, (ii) if, after it has become effective, such registration is subject to a stop order, injunction or other order of the Commission or other governmental agency or court suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement for any reason, other than by reason of misstatements or omissions made or not made in the registration statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by a Holder of Registrable Securities specifically for use in the preparation of such registration statement, or (iii) if the conditions to closing specified in the purchase agreement or underwriting agreement entered into in connection with such registration are not satisfied, other than by reason of some act or omission by any Holder of Registrable Securities participating in the offering. Except as provided in Section 7.1.3 above, whether or not the registration becomes effective, the Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration so initiated.

 

7.1.4       If a registration requested pursuant to this Section 7.1 involves an underwritten offering, the underwriter or underwriters thereof shall be selected by the holders of at least a majority (by number of shares) of the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested and shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company.

 

- 14 -
 

  

7.1.5       If a requested registration pursuant to this Section 7.1 involves an underwritten offering, and the managing underwriter shall advise the Company (with a copy of any such notice to each holder of Registrable Securities requesting registration) that, in its opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such registration (including securities proposed to be sold for the account of the Company) exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Initiating Holders, the Company will include in such registration, to the extent of the number which the Company is so advised can be sold in such offering, (i) first, Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by the holder or holders of Registrable Securities, pro rata among such holders requesting such registration on the basis of the number of such securities requested to be included by such holders, and (ii) second, all shares proposed to be included as the Company shall determine, whether shares to be offered by the Company or any Company stockholder (any such shares with respect to any registration, “Other Securities”) requested to be included in such registration by the holder or holders thereof.

 

7.1.6       The Company may suspend any registration requested pursuant to this Section 7.1 one time for a single period of up to ninety (90) days upon notice to the holders of Registrable Securities whose Registrable Securities are covered by the registration statement requested pursuant to this Section 7.1 that, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Company, the registration and sale at such time of the Registrable Securities requested to be so registered would not be in the best interests of the Company, provided that notwithstanding such suspension, the Company shall continue to diligently process the preparation of the documentation required for such registration. No registration shall be requested pursuant to this Section 7.1 during any applicable lockup period specified in Section 7.4.2.

 

7.1.7       Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to comply with a demand for registration under this Section 7.1 if the only form available for such registration is a Form S-1.

 

7.2         Piggy-Back Registration. In the event that the Company intends to file any registration statement with respect to the sale of its Common Stock or Convertible Securities, the Holder shall have piggy-back registration rights as set forth herein.

 

- 15 -
 

 

7.2.1       If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act (other than (x) by a registration on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor or similar forms) or (y) pursuant to Section 7.1) whether for its own account or for the account of the holder or holders of any other equity securities of the Company, it will each such time give prompt written notice to all holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to do so and of such holders’ rights under this Section 7.2.1. Upon the written request of any such holder made within twenty (20) days after the receipt of any such notice (which request shall specify the Registrable Securities intended to be registered by such holder), the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register, by inclusion of such Registrable Securities in the registration statement which covers the securities which the Company proposes to register; provided that if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason either not to register or to delay registration of such securities, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to each holder of Registrable Securities that had requested inclusion of Registrable Securities in such registration and, thereupon, (i) in the case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses in connection therewith), without prejudice, however, to the rights of any holder of Registrable Securities entitled to request that such registration be effected as a registration under Section 7.1 above, and (ii) in the case of a determination to delay registering, shall be permitted to delay registering any Registrable Securities, for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities. No registration affected under this Section 7.2 shall relieve the Company of its obligation to effect any registration upon request under Section 7.1 above, nor shall any such registration hereunder be deemed to have been effected pursuant to Section 7.1 above. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 7.2.

 

7.2.2       If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act as contemplated by this Section 7.2 and such securities are to be distributed by or through one or more underwriters, the Company will, if requested by any holder of Registrable Securities as provided in this Section 7.2, use its commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for such underwriters to include all the Registrable Securities to be offered and sold by such holder among the securities to be distributed by such underwriters, provided that if the managing underwriter of such underwritten offering shall inform the Company and holders of the Registrable Securities requesting such registration and all other holders of any Other Securities in respect of such underwritten offering, by letter of its belief that inclusion in such distribution of all or a specified number of the securities proposed to be distributed by such underwriters would interfere with the successful marketing of the securities being distributed by such underwriters (such letter to state the basis of such belief and the approximate number of such Registrable Securities and such Other Securities which may be distributed without such effect), then the Company may, upon written notice to all holders of such Registrable Securities and holders of such Other Securities, reduce pro rata (if and to extent stated by such managing underwriter to be necessary to eliminate such effect) first the number of Registrable Securities that have been requested be included in such registration statement and second the number of Other Securities that have been requested be included in such registration statement so that the resultant aggregate number of such Registrable Securities and Other Securities so included in such registration, together with the number of securities to be included in the registration for the account of the Company, shall be equal to the number of securities stated in such managing underwriter’s letter.

 

7.3         Registration Procedures.

 

7.3.1       If and whenever the Company is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act as provided in Section 7.1 or Section 7.2, the Company shall, as expeditiously as possible:

 

- 16 -
 

 

(i)          prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for a period of up to one hundred twenty (120) days or until the distribution contemplated in the registration statement has been completed; provided, however, that (i) such 120-day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period the holder refrains from selling any securities included in such registration at the request of an underwriter of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company; and (ii) in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 that are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, such 120-day period shall be extended, if necessary, to keep the registration statement effective until all such Registrable Securities are sold, provided that Rule 415, or any successor rule under the Securities Act, permits an offering on a continuous or delayed basis, and provided further that applicable rules under the Securities Act governing the obligation to file a post-effective amendment permit, in lieu of filing a post-effective amendment that (x) includes any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act or (y) reflects facts or events representing a material or fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement, the incorporation by reference of information required to be included in (x) and (y) above to be contained in periodic reports filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Act in the registration statement;

(iv)        use its commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify all Registrable Securities and other securities covered by such registration statement under blue sky or similar laws of such jurisdictions as any seller thereof and any underwriter of the securities being sold by such seller shall reasonably request, to keep such registrations or qualifications in effect for so long as such registration statement remains in effect, and take any other action which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such seller and underwriter to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the securities owned by such seller except that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it would not but for the requirements of this subdivision (iv) be obligated to be so qualified, to subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;

(vi)        furnish to each seller of Registrable Securities a signed counterpart, addressed to such seller and the underwriters, if any, of

 

(A)         an opinion of counsel for the Company, dated the effective date of such registration statement (and, if such registration is in connection with an underwritten public offering, an opinion dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement), reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in such registration statement, and

 

(B)         a “comfort” letter, dated the effective date of such registration statement (and, if such registration is in connection with an underwritten public offering, a letter dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement), signed by the independent public accountants who have certified the Company’s financial statements included in such registration statement, covering substantially the same matters with respect to such registration statement (and the prospectus included therein);

 

(vii)       notify the holders of Registrable Securities and the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, promptly and confirm such advice in writing promptly thereafter:

(B)         of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to the registration statement or the prospectus or for additional information;

 

(C)         of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration or the initiation of any proceedings by any Person for that purpose; and

(viii)      notify each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, upon the Company’s discovery that, or upon the happening of any event as a result of which, the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes 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 not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, and promptly prepare and furnish to such seller and each underwriter, if any, a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing;

 

(ix)         make every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement at the earliest possible moment;

 

(x)          otherwise use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve months, but not more than eighteen months, beginning with the first full calendar quarter after the effective date of such registration statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act;

 

(xi)         make available for inspection by a representative of the holders of Registrable Securities participating in the offering, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to the registration and any attorney or accountant retained by such selling holders or underwriter (each, an “Inspector”), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (the “Records”), and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Inspector in connection with such registration; provided that the Company shall not be required to comply with this subdivision (xi) if there is a reasonable likelihood, in the judgment of the Company, that such delivery could result in the loss of any attorney-client privilege related thereto; and provided further that Records which the Company determines, in good faith, to be confidential and which it notifies the Inspectors are confidential shall not be disclosed by the Inspectors (other than to any holder of Registrable Securities participating in the offering, and if disclosed to any such holder shall not be disclosed by such holder) unless (x) such Records have become generally available to the public or (y) the disclosure of such Records may be necessary or appropriate (A) to comply with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to any such Inspectors or holder of Registrable Securities, (B) in response to any subpoena or other legal process or (C) in connection with any litigation to which such Inspectors or any holder of Registrable Securities is a party (provided that the Company is provided with reasonable notice of such proposed disclosure and a reasonable opportunity to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy with respect to such Records);

The Company may require each seller of Registrable Securities as to which any registration is being effected to furnish the Company with such information regarding such seller and the distribution of such Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing for purposes of preparing the relevant registration statement and amendments and supplements thereto.

 

7.3.2      Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees by acquisition of such Registrable Securities that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 7.3.1(viii) above, such holder will forthwith discontinue such holder’s disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement relating to such Registrable Securities until such holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 7.3.1(viii) above. In the event the Company shall give any such notice, the periods specified in Section 7.3.1(ii)) above shall be extended by the length of the period from and including the date when each seller of any Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement shall have received such notice to the date on which each such seller has received the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by of Section 7.3.1(viii) above.

 

7.3.3      If any such registration or comparable statement refers to any holder of Registrable Securities by name or otherwise as the holder of any securities of the Company, then such holder shall have the right to require, in the event that such reference to such holder by name or otherwise is not required by the Securities Act or any similar federal statute then in force, the deletion of the reference to such holder.

Each Holder of Registrable Securities agrees that the Company may instruct its transfer agent to place stop transfer notations in its records to enforce this Section 7.4.2.

7.5         Indemnification.

 

7.5.1     To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Registrable Securities whose Registrable Securities are covered by any registration statement, its directors and officers and each other Person, if any, who controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which any such indemnified party may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, 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 securities were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and the Company will reimburse each such indemnified party for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, liability, action or proceeding; provided that the indemnity obligation provided for in this Section 7.5.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the Company is otherwise in compliance with its indemnification obligations hereunder; and provided further that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue 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 furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such holder or person specifically for use in the preparation thereof. In addition, the Company shall indemnify any underwriter of such offering and each other Person, if any, who controls any such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act in substantially the same manner and to substantially the same extent as the indemnity herein provided to each indemnified party. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such holder or any such director, officer, underwriter or controlling Person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such holder.

 

7.5.2     To the fullest extent permitted by law, each prospective seller of Registrable Securities hereunder shall indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in subdivision (a) of this Section 7.5) the Company, each director of the Company, each officer of the Company and each other Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, with respect to any statement or alleged statement in or omission or alleged omission from such registration statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, if such statement or alleged statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such seller specifically for use in the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement provided that the indemnity obligation provided for in this Section 7.5.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Any such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any such director, officer or controlling Person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such seller. The amount payable by any prospective seller of Registrable Securities with respect to the indemnification set forth in this Section 7.5.2 in connection with any offering of securities will not exceed the amount of net proceeds received by such prospective seller pursuant to such offering.

7.5.3     Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in this Section 7.5, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action; provided 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 7.5, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action is brought against an indemnified party, unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense thereof, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to the extent that the indemnifying party may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of any such action 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 to such claim or litigation. No indemnified party shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of any such action the defense of which has been assumed by an indemnifying party without the consent of such indemnifying party.

 

7.5.4     If the indemnification provided for in the this Section 7.5 is unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any expense, loss, damage or liability referred to therein, then each 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 expense, loss, claim, damage or liability (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Holder or underwriter, as the case may be, on the other from the distribution of the Registrable Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the holder or underwriter, as the case may be, on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such expense, loss, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the applicable Holder on the other, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided that in no event shall the obligation of any indemnifying party to contribute under this Section 7.5.4 exceed the amount that such indemnifying party would have been obligated to pay by way of indemnification if the indemnification provided for under Section 7.5.1 or Section 7.5.2 above had been available under the circumstances.

The Company and the holders of Registrable Securities agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7.5.4 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders and any underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that 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 and liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph 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 7.5.4, no holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount of net proceeds received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities. 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.

 

7.6         Rule 144. The Company will file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder and will take such further action as any Holder of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (a) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time, or (b) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission. Upon the request of any holder of Registrable Securities, the Company will deliver to such holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements.
