(iii) Commercially Reasonable Efforts of Company.

(i) Number of Demand Registrations. The Holders of Registrable Securities will not be entitled to require the Company to effect more than two (2) Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof. For purposes of this Section 2(b), a Registration Statement shall not be counted as a Demand Registration Statement (A) until such time as such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission or (B) if such Holders withdraw their request for a Demand Registration at any time prior to the Registration Statement being declared effective because such Holders (x) reasonably believe that the Registration Statement or Prospectus contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, (y) notified the Company of such fact and requested that the Company correct such alleged misstatement or omission and (z) the Company has refused to correct such alleged misstatement or omission; provided, however, that if the initiating Holders withdraw their request for such registration prior to the Registration Statement being declared effective (other than as a result of information concerning the business or financial condition of the Company which is made known to the Holders after the date on which such registration was requested or pursuant to Section 2(b)(i)(B) hereof) but do not pay the Registration Expenses therefor, such Registration Statement shall be counted as a Demand Registration.

- 4 -
(c) Priority on Demand Registrations. In the event that the offering is to be an underwritten public offering, and the underwriter in connection therewith advises the Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be sold in an underwritten public offering, the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the Registration Statement and underwriting shall be allocated among all Holders requesting registration in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective number of Registrable Securities held by them on the date of the request for registration made by the initiating Holders pursuant to Section 2(a)(i). If any Holder would thus be entitled to include more Registrable Securities than such Holder requested to be registered, the excess shall be allocated among other requesting Holder pro rata in the manner described in the preceding sentence.
Neither the Company nor any of its stockholders (other than Holders of Registrable Securities) shall be entitled to include any securities in any underwritten Demand Registration unless the Company or such stockholders (as the case may be) shall have agreed in writing to sell such securities on the same terms and conditions as shall apply to the Registrable Securities to be included in such Demand Registration.
(d) Selection of Underwriters. If a written request for a Demand Registration is made pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof, then the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be included in any Demand Registration shall determine whether or not such Demand Registration shall be underwritten and, subject to the approval of the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), shall select the investment banker(s) and managing underwriter(s) to administer such offering.
(e) Unlimited Registrations on Form S-3. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 2(e), at any time after the Company becomes eligible to file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form),in addition to the rights contained in the foregoing provisions of this Section 2, Holders may, subject to the rights of the Company set forth below, at any time and from time to time to request in writing a registration with respect to which the Registrable Securities being sold have aggregate gross proceeds (exclusive of underwriters discounts and commissions) of at least $2,000,000 on Form S-3 (or any successor form) (which request will specify the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be registered and will also specify the intended method of disposition thereof), provided that such Holders will not be entitled to require the Company to effect more than two (2) registrations on Form S-3 pursuant to this Section 2(e) in any twelve (12) month period. The provisions of Sections 2(b), 2(c) and 2(d) shall apply to any exercise by the holders of the registration rights under this Section 2(e) as if the demand hereunder were a Demand Registration, with such changes and modifications to such sections as the context requires.
3. Piggyback Registrations.
(a) Rights to Piggyback.
(i) If (and on each occasion that) the Company proposes to register any of its equity securities under the Securities Act on a Registration Statement either for the Companys own account or for the account of any of its stockholders (other than for Holders pursuant to Section 2 hereof and other than pursuant to a Form S-4 or Form S-8)
- 5 -
(each such registration not withdrawn or abandoned prior to the effective date thereof being herein called a Piggyback Registration), the Company will give fifteen (15) days written notice to all Holders of Registrable Securities prior to the initial filing of the Registration Statement with the Commission in connection with such Piggyback Registration.
(ii) Subject to the provisions of Section 3(b) hereof and in the last sentence of this Section 3(a)(ii), (A) the Company will be obligated and required to include in each Piggyback Registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company shall receive from Holders of Registrable Securities, within fifteen (15) days after the date on which the Company shall have given written notice of such Piggyback Registration to all Holders of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3(a)(i) hereof, the written requests of such Holders for inclusion in such Piggyback Registration, and (B) the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect promptly the registration of all such Registrable Securities; provided that the Company shall have the right to postpone or withdraw any registration effected pursuant to this Section 3(a) without obligation to any Holders. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall be permitted to withdraw all or any part of the Registrable Securities of such Holders from any Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effective date of such Piggyback Registration unless such Holders of Registrable Securities shall have entered into a written agreement with the Companys underwriter(s) establishing the terms and conditions under which such Holders would be obligated to sell such securities in such Piggyback Registration. The Company will not be obligated or required to include any Registrable Securities in any registration effected solely to implement an employee benefit plan or a transaction to which Rule 145 of the Commission under the Securities Act is applicable.
(b) Conditions of Piggyback Registrations. If the registration for which the Company gives notice pursuant to Section 3(a)(i) is a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 3(a)(i). In such event, (i) the right of any Holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration pursuant to this Section 3 shall be conditioned upon such Holders participation in such underwriting on the terms set forth herein, and (ii) all Holders including Registrable Securities in such registration shall enter into an underwriting agreement upon customary terms with the underwriter or underwriters selected for the underwriting by the Company, provided that no such Holders shall be so required unless all such Holders and all stockholders participating in such registration enter into such underwriting agreement. If any Holder who has requested inclusion of its Registrable Securities in such registration as provided above disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such Holder may elect, by written notice to the Company, to withdraw its Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement and underwriting. If the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the shares held by holders of securities of the Company other than the Holders shall be excluded from such Registration Statement and underwriting to the extent deemed advisable by the managing underwriter, and, if a further reduction of the number of shares is required, the number of shares that may be included in such Registration Statement and underwriting shall be allocated among all Holders and such other parties requesting registration in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective number of shares
- 6 -
of Common Stock (on an as-converted basis) held by them on the date the Company gives the notice specified in Section 3(a)(i). If any Holder would thus be entitled to include more shares than such Holder requested to be registered, the excess shall be allocated among other requesting Holders pro rata in the manner described in the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required, pursuant to this Section 3, to include any Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement (other than in the Initial Public Offering) if such Registrable Securities can then be sold without restriction pursuant to Rule 144(b) under the Securities Act.
(c) Selection of Underwriters. In any Piggyback Registration, the Company shall have the right to determine whether such registration is to be an underwritten registered public offering and shall (unless the Company shall otherwise agree) have the right to select the investment banker(s) and managing underwriter(s) in such registration.
4. Lockup Agreements. Each Holder of Registrable Securities, if the Company or the managing underwriter(s) so request in connection with the Companys initial underwritten public offering, will not, without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriter(s) and provided that the officers and directors of the Company and all holders (other than, for purposes of this determination, such Holder) of at least two percent (2%) of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company (determined on an as-converted basis) also agree not to, transfer or dispose any equity securities of the Company, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144 of the Commission under the Securities Act, during the seven (7) days prior to, and during the one hundred eighty (180) day period commencing on the effective date of such initial underwritten public offering, subject to extension in order to ensure FINRA compliance, except in connection with such initial underwritten public offering. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Securities or other securities subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of such 180-day period. Any discretionary waiver or termination of the foregoing restriction by the Company or the underwriters shall apply pro rata to all Holders of Registrable Securities, based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders, and prompt written notice of such discretionary waiver or termination shall be given to all Holders of Registrable Securities.

(c) Indemnification Proceedings. Each party entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 8 (the Indemnified Party) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification pursuant to this Section 8 (the Indemnifying Party) promptly after such Indemnified Party acquires actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party (at its expense) to assume the defense of any claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such partys expense; and provided, further, that the failure by any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided in this paragraph (c) shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 8 except to the extent that the failure results in a failure of actual notice to the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnifying Party is damaged solely as a result of the failure to give notice. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement 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 and no Indemnified Party shall consent to entry of any judgment or settle such claim or litigation without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party so long as the Indemnifying Party has, in writing, acknowledged in writing its obligation to indemnify and is in compliance with all of its obligations hereunder to indemnify the Indemnified Party for all amounts in connection with such claim or litigation and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

The reimbursement required by this Section 8 shall be made by periodic payments during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expenses incurred.
- 12 -
9. Contribution in Lieu of Indemnification. If the indemnification provided for in Section 8 hereof is unavailable to a party that would have been an Indemnified Party thereunder in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each party that would have been an Indemnifying Party thereunder shall, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and such Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof). The relative fault 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 such Indemnified Party and the parties relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and each Holder of Registrable Securities agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were determined by pro-rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 9. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 9 shall include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 9 to the contrary, (a) 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, and (b) each Holders liability hereunder with respect to any particular registration shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the Registrable Securities sold by such Holder in such registration.
10. Rule 144 Requirements. From time to time after the earlier to occur of (a) the ninetieth day following the date on which there shall first become effective a Registration Statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act, or (b) the date on which the Company shall register a class of securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, the Company agrees to:
(a) make and keep current public information about the Company available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;
(b) use its best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements);
(c) furnish to any holder of Registrable Securities upon request (i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and (iii)
- 13 -
such other reports and documents of the Company as such holder may reasonably request to avail itself of any similar rule or regulation of the Commission allowing it to sell any such securities without registration; and
(d) furnish to any Holder of Registrable Securities, upon request, a written statement signed by the Company, addressed to such Holder, stating whether or not the Company is in compliance with the current public information requirements of Rule 144 and Rule 144A of the Commission under the Securities Act (and, if not, a brief statement as to why or what action the Company has taken or proposes to take to comply with such requirements).
11. Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Person may participate in any underwritten registration pursuant to this Agreement unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Persons securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled, under the provisions hereof, to approve such arrangements, and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required by the terms of such underwriting arrangements. Any Holder of Registrable Securities to be included in any underwritten registration shall be entitled at any time to withdraw such Registrable Securities from such registration prior to its effective date in the event that such Holder shall disapprove of any of the terms of the related underwriting agreement.
12. Miscellaneous.
(a) No Other Registration Rights. Other than the Prior Agreement, the Company is not a party to any agreement granting any registration rights to any Person, and, subject to Section 13 hereof, will not on or after the date of this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Required Holders, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities which grants registration rights to any Person, unless such rights are junior to, and are not inconsistent with and do not conflict with, the rights granted to the Holders of Registrable Securities in this Agreement.
(b) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent is approved in writing by (i) the Company and (ii) the Required Holders, on behalf of all of the Holders of Registrable Securities, provided that (a) each Holder may waive any provision hereof with respect to such Holder at any time and (b) this Agreement may not be amended or terminated and the observance of any term hereunder may not be waived with respect to any Holder without the written consent of such Holder unless such amendment, termination or waiver applies to all Holders, respectively, in the same fashion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Schedule I hereto may be amended by the Company from time to time to add information without the consent of the other parties hereto to reflect (i) transfers of rights and obligations hereunder in accordance with Section 12(g) and (ii) any Additional Purchasers that become a party hereto under Section 13 hereof.

(e) Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement, each Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
