REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of June 24, 2016, by and between Universal Technical Institute, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and Coliseum Holdings I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Stockholder”). The Company and the Stockholder may be referred to in this Agreement as a “Party,” and, collectively, as the “Parties.” Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned such terms in Section 10.

A.    The Company and the Stockholder are parties to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 24, 2016 (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Stockholder is purchasing an aggregate of 700,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Purchased Shares”).

B.    In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, and pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Parties desire to enter into this Agreement in order to grant to the Stockholder and certain of its permitted transferees certain demand and piggyback registration rights covering the Purchased Shares, all in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Stockholder hereby agree as follows:

(a)Short-Form Registrations. At any time after twelve (12) months following the date hereof, each Holder may request registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of its Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any successor form (each, a “Short-Form Registration”), which may, if so requested, be a “shelf” registration under Rule 415 under the Securities Act. A registration shall not count as a Short-Form Registration unless and until a registration statement relating thereto has become effective under the Securities Act. Each request for a Short-Form Registration shall specify the number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered.

(b)Long-Form Registrations. At any time that a Holder is then eligible to request registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of its Registrable Securities but where Short-Form Registration pursuant to Section 1(a) is not available to be used by the Company in respect of such proposed registration, but in no event earlier than twelve (12) months following the date hereof, each Holder shall be entitled to request a registration on Form S-1 or any similar form (each, a “Long-Form Registration”). A registration shall not count as a permitted Long-Form Registration unless and until a registration statement relating thereto has become effective under the Securities Act. Each request for a Long-Form Registration shall specify the number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered.

(c)Underwriting; Priority.

(i)Holders shall have the right to request that a Demand Registration be effected as an underwritten offering at any time, subject to this Section 1, by delivering to the Company a notice setting forth such request and the number of Registrable Securities sought to be disposed of by such Holder in such underwritten offering. All Holders proposing to participate in such underwriting shall (A) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter(s) selected for such underwriting by a Majority-in-Interest of the Registrable Securities included in such offering, which underwriter(s) shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company, provided that, with respect to such underwriting agreement or any other documents reasonably required under such agreement, (1) no Holder shall be required to make any representation or warranty with respect to or on behalf of the Company or any other stockholder of the Company and (2) the liability of any Holder shall be limited as provided in Section 7(b); (B) complete and execute all questionnaires, powers-of-attorney, indemnities, opinions and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting agreement; (C) provide all customary information reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriter in connection with such registration; and (D) comply with all federal and state securities laws applicable thereto in connection with such registration. A request for an underwritten offering may be withdrawn by Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities proposed to be included in such offering prior to the consummation thereof, and, in such event, such withdrawal shall not be treated as a request for an underwritten offering pursuant to this paragraph.

(ii)If the managing underwriter(s) for an underwritten offering advise(s) the Company and the Holders in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities which the Holders desire to sell, taken together with all other Common Stock or other securities which the Company desires to sell and the Common Stock or other securities, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggyback registration rights held by other stockholders of the Company, if any, who desire to sell or otherwise, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of securities that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Threshold”), then the Company shall include in such registration: (1) first, the Registrable Securities (pro rata in accordance with the number of Registrable Securities which such Holders have requested be included in such underwritten offering, regardless of the number of Registrable Securities or other securities held by each such Person) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold; (2) second, to the extent that the Maximum Threshold has not been reached under the foregoing clause (1), the Common Stock or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold; (3) third, to the extent that the Maximum Threshold has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (1) and (2), the Common Stock or other securities for the account of other Persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements, if any, with such Persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold; and (4) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Threshold has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (1), (2) and (3), the Common Stock that other stockholders desire to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold to the extent that the Company, in its sole discretion, wishes to permit such sales pursuant to this clause (4).

(d)Limitations. The Company shall not be obligated to effect (i) more than five (5) Demand Registrations; provided, however, that the holders of Registrable Securities collectively shall only be entitled to request a maximum of three (3) Demand Registrations at any time that the Company is not eligible to use Form S-3 (or a comparable form) for the registration under the Securities Act of any of its securities, (ii)any Demand Registration unless it shall have received requests from Holders to register Registrable Securities having an aggregate market value, based upon the most recent closing price of the

Common Stock at the time of the demand, of not less than $10 million, (iii) any Demand Registration that does not cover the offer and sale of at least ten percent (10%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (it being understood that the determination whether a registration covers the requisite number of shares shall be made without regard to any over-allotment option of any underwriters) or (iv) any Demand Registration within 180 days following the effective date of any registered offering of the Company’s securities to the general public in which the Stockholder shall have been able effectively to register all Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event will a Demand Registration count as a Demand Registration unless at least fifty percent (50)% of all Registrable Securities requested to be registered in such Demand Registration by the Holders initiating such Demand Registration are, in fact, registered in such registration.

(e)Follow-On Registrations. If the filings contemplated herein are not permitted under the rules and regulations promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or by any Commission Guidance, then within one hundred twenty (120) days after a written request by one or more Holders to register for resale any additional Registrable Securities owned by such Holders that have not been registered for resale on a “shelf” Registration Statement, the Company shall file a Registration Statement similar to the Registration Statement then effective (each, a “Follow-On Registration Statement”), to register for resale one hundred percent (100%), or such portion as permitted by Commission Guidance (provided that the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the SEC for the registration of all or the maximum number of the Registrable Securities as permitted by Commission Guidance), of such additional Registrable Securities. The Company shall give written notice of the filing of the Follow-On Registration Statement at least twenty-five (25) days prior to filing the Follow-On Registration Statement to all Holders (the “Follow-On Registration Notice”) and shall include in such Follow-On Registration Statement all such additional Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within twenty (20) days after sending the Follow-On Registration Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to file a Follow-On Registration Statement (i) if it has filed a Follow-On Registration Statement within the prior twelve (12)-month period. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Follow-On Registration Statement to be declared effective as promptly as practicable after filing such Follow-On Registration Statement.

(f)Allocation Among Holders. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Commission Guidance sets forth a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on a particular Registration Statement (notwithstanding the Company’s commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the SEC for the registration of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities), then, unless otherwise directed in writing by a Holder as to its Registrable Securities, the amount of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced pro rata among the Holders based on the total number of unregistered Registrable Securities held by such Holders.

(a)Right to Piggyback. Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act, and the registration form proposed to be used may be used to register the resale of Registrable Securities (each, a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall give prompt written notice (in any event at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement relating to such registration) to each Holder of its intention to effect such a registration and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received a written request from each Holder for inclusion therein within five (5) Business Days following such Holder’s receipt of the Company’s notice. All Holders proposing to distribute

their securities through a Piggyback Registration that involves an underwriter(s) shall (i) enter into an underwriting agreement in reasonable and customary form with the underwriter(s) selected for such Piggyback Registration, provided that with respect to such underwriting agreement or any other documents reasonably required under such agreement, (A) no Holder shall be required to make any representation or warranty with respect to or on behalf of the Company or any other stockholder of the Company and (B) the liability of any Holder shall be limited as provided in Section 7(b); (ii) each Holder shall complete and execute all questionnaires, powers- of-attorney, indemnities, opinions and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting agreement; (iii) provide all customary information reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriter in connection with such registration; and (iv) comply with all federal and state securities laws applicable thereto in connection with such registration. No registration effected under this Section 2 shall relieve the Company of its obligations to effect a Demand Registration required by Section 1. If at any time after giving notice of its intention to register any Company securities pursuant to this Section 2(a) and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register such securities, the Company shall give notice to all of the Holders participating in such Piggyback Registration and, thereupon, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration.

(b)Reduction of Offering. If the managing underwriter(s) for a Piggyback Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises the Company and the Holders that in their opinion the dollar amount or number of Common Stock or other securities which the Company desires to sell, taken together with Common Stock or other securities, if any, as to which registration has been demanded pursuant to written contractual arrangements with third parties, if any, the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested under this Section 2, and the Common Stock or other securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the written contractual piggyback registration rights of other stockholders of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Threshold, then the Company shall include in any such registration:

(i)If the registration is undertaken for the Company’s account: (A) first, the Common Stock or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold and (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Threshold has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities and the Common Stock or other securities proposed to be sold for the account of other Persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to any written contractual piggyback registration rights with such Persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold (pro rata in accordance with the number of Registrable Securities and Common Stock or other securities which such Holders and other Persons have requested be included in such underwritten offering, regardless of the number of Registrable Securities and Common Stock or other securities held by each such Holder or other Person), and

(ii)If the registration is a “demand” registration undertaken at the demand of one or more Persons other than the Company and any Holder, (A) first, the Common Stock or other securities for the account of such demanding Persons that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Threshold has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Common Stock or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Threshold has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Registrable Securities and the Common Stock or other securities proposed to be sold for the account of other Persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to any written contractual piggyback registration rights with such Persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold (pro rata in accordance with the number of Registrable Securities and Common Stock or other securities which such Holders and other Persons have requested be included in such underwritten offering, regardless

of the number of Registrable Securities and Common Stock or other securities held by each such Holder or other Person).

(c)Selection of Underwriters. If any Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary offering, the investment banker(s) and manager(s) for the offering shall (as between the Company and the Holders) be selected by the Company.

(a)Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company may delay the filing of any registration statement and may withhold any and all efforts to cause such registration statement to be become effective if the Company determines in good faith that such registration will (i) materially and adversely interfere with or affect the negotiation or consummation of any actual or pending material transaction that is being contemplated by the Company (whether or not a final decision has been made to undertake such transaction), (ii) otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or (iii) involve initial or continuing disclosure obligations that are not in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders; provided, however, that the Company may not exercise such right to delay or to withhold efforts more than once in any consecutive 12 month period or for more than ninety (90) days. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, if the Company exercises its right to delay or to withhold efforts pursuant to this Section 3(a), then the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have the applicable registration statement filed or declared effective, as the case may be, at the earliest practicable date after the Company’s bases for delaying or withholding its efforts are no longer applicable.

(b)The Company (i) shall not effect any public sale or distribution of its equity securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the period beginning on the date the Company receives a valid request for an underwritten offering permitted hereunder from any Holder and continuing until ninety (90) days after the commencement of an underwritten offering, unless the underwriters managing the registered public offering otherwise agree after consultation with a Majority-in-Interest and (ii) shall cause each executive officer and director of the Company, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each holder of five percent (5%) or greater of the then outstanding Common Stock of the Company and each additional holder of Common Stock of the Company, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such Common Stock, purchased from the Company at any time after the date of this Agreement (other than in a registered public offering) to agree not to effect any public sale or distribution (including sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of any such securities during such period (except as part of such underwritten registration, if otherwise permitted), unless the underwriters managing the registered public offering otherwise agree.

(c)Each Holder of Registrable Securities agrees that in connection with any public offering of the Company's equity securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, and upon the request of the managing underwriter(s) in such offering, such Holder shall not, without the prior written consent of such managing underwriter(s), during the period commencing on the date that is ten (10) days prior to the consummation of such offering and continuing until ninety (90) days after the commencement of an underwritten offering, (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, hedge the beneficial ownership of or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into, exercisable for or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock (whether such shares or any such securities are then owned by the Holder or are thereafter acquired) or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common

Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise. The foregoing provisions of this Section 3(c) shall not apply to sales of Registrable Securities to be included in such offering pursuant to Section 1 or Section 2, and shall be applicable to the holders of Registrable Securities only if all executive officers and directors of the Company and each holder of its Common Stock, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such Common Stock, purchased from the Company at any time after the date of this Agreement (other than in a registered public offering) are subject to the same restrictions. Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the managing underwriter and that are consistent with the foregoing or otherwise necessary to give further effect thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3(c), each holder of Registrable Securities shall be released, pro rata, from any lock-up agreement entered into pursuant to this Section 3(c) in the event and to the extent that the managing underwriter or the Company permit any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of any lock-up agreement pertaining to any executive officer, director or other holder of Common Stock.

(a)Whenever the Holder has requested that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the Holder’s intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall:

(i)(A) prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days, if a Short-Form Registration, and ninety (90) days, if a Long-Form Registration, following the date of a demand for registration pursuant to Section 1(a) or Section 1(b), as applicable, and (B) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement (1) to become effective as soon as practicable, and in any event within thirty (30) days, if the SEC indicates it will not review the Registration Statement, and ninety (90) days, if the SEC indicates it will review the Registration Statement (provided that, in the event the SEC indicates it will review such Registration Statement and the SEC’s response in connection with such review is not received by the Company within thirty (30) days of filing such Registration Statement, such ninety (90) day period shall be tolled until such SEC response is received by the Company), following the date of filing such Registration Statement (provided that before filing a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company shall furnish to one counsel selected by Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities proposed to be included therein copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents shall be subject to the review and comment of such counsel) and (2) to remain effective and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act for a period of not less than one hundred eighty (180) days in order to permit the disposition of all Registrable Securities (and any other securities, if applicable) covered by such Registration Statement during such period in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or until such securities have been withdrawn;

(ii)respond to written comments received from the SEC upon a review of any Registration Statement in a timely manner;

(iii)promptly notify each Holder of the effectiveness of each Registration Statement filed hereunder; by 9:30 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day following such effectiveness, file with the SEC in accordance with Rule 424 under the Securities Act the final prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such Registration Statement; and prepare

and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith, and otherwise take such actions, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective until the earlier of (A) the date as of which each Holder may sell all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act without limitation, restriction or condition thereunder, and (B) the date on which all of such Registrable Securities have been disposed of by each Holder, and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement;

(iv)promptly furnish to each Holder such number of copies of such Registration Statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as the Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by each Holder;

(v)if applicable, use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares covered by such Registration Statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as each Holder shall reasonably request and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable each Holder to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder (provided that the Company shall not be required to (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subparagraph, (B) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (C) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction);

(vi)notify each Holder at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, as expeditiously as possible following the happening of such event, prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

(vii)without limiting any obligations of the Company under the Purchase Agreement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to (A) cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange or (B) if such listing is not then permitted, or no similar securities issued by the Company are then so listed, secure a designation and quotation of all of the Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement on the OTC Bulletin Board;

(viii)provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of such Registration Statement;

(ix)enter into such customary agreements (including underwriting agreements in customary form) and take all such other actions as the Holders or the underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities (including effecting a stock split or a combination of shares);

(x)make available for inspection by any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such Registration Statement;

(xi)otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve (12) months beginning with the first day of the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder, and which requirement will be deemed satisfied if the Company timely files complete and accurate information on Forms 10-Q and 10-K and Current Reports on Form 8-K under the Exchange Act and otherwise complies with Rule 158 under the Securities Act;

(xii)in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any Common Stock included in such Registration Statement for sale in any jurisdiction, promptly notify each Holder and use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly obtain the withdrawal of such order;

(xiii)use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the Holders thereof to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;

(xiv)permit any Holder who, in the reasonable judgment of the Company upon the advice of counsel, might be deemed to be an underwriter or controlling person of the Company, and, if applicable, any underwriter, a cold comfort letter from the Company’s independent public accountants in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by cold comfort letters as the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold reasonably request (provided that such Registrable Securities constitute at least ten percent (10%) of the securities covered by such Registration Statement); and

(xv)cooperate with each Holder and any broker or dealer through which any such Holder proposes to sell its Registrable Securities in effecting a filing with FINRA pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110 as requested by such Holder.

(b)Each Holder that requested that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to this Agreement shall deliver to the Company such requisite information with respect to itself and its Registrable Securities as the Company may reasonably request for inclusion in the Registration Statement (and the prospectus included therein) in order to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC,

and that it will promptly notify the Company of any material changes in the information set forth in the Registration Statement furnished by or regarding the Holder or its plan of distribution.

(c)The Holders shall not effect sales of the shares covered by the Registration Statement (i) prior to the withdrawal of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the registration or qualification of any Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement for sale in any jurisdiction where such shares had previously been registered or qualified or (ii) after receipt of facsimile or other written notice from the Company instructing such Holders to suspend sales to permit the Company to correct or update the Registration Statement or prospectus until such Holder receives copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any required post-effective amendment has become effective. Such Holder agrees that it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement until such Holder receives copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective.

(d)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall have the right to suspend the use of a Registration Statement for a period of not greater than forty-five (45) consecutive days and for not more than ninety (90) days in any twelve (12) month period in connection with each Demand Registration (a “Blackout Period”), if, in the good faith opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company, after consultation with counsel, material, nonpublic information exists, including without limitation the proposed acquisition or divestiture of assets by the Company, a strategic alliance or a financing transaction involving the Company or the existence of pending material corporate developments, the public disclosure of which would be necessary to cause the Registration Statement to be materially true and to contain no material misstatements or omissions, and in each such case, where, in the good faith opinion of the Board of Directors, such disclosure would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) on the Company or on the proposed transaction. The Company shall give the Holders prompt written notice of the commencement of any Blackout Period. Upon the conclusion of any Blackout Period, the Company shall provide the Holders prompt written notice that the Registration Statement is again available for use.

5.Registration Expenses. All expenses (excluding underwriting discounts and commissions and brokerage fees) incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with this Agreement, including without limitation all registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, printing expenses, messenger and delivery expenses, fees and disbursements of custodians, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and independent certified public accountants, underwriters and other persons retained by the Company, and reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel for the Holders in connection with any Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration (all such expenses being herein called “Registration Expenses”), shall be borne by the Company. To the extent that Registration Expenses are not required to be paid by the Company (including, without limitation, underwriting discounts and commissions and brokerage fees), each holder of securities included in any registration hereunder shall pay all Registration Expenses specifically allocable to such holder’s included securities.

6.Holder's Obligations. Each Holder covenants and agrees that, in the event the Company informs such Holder in writing that it does not satisfy the conditions specified in Rule 172 and, as a result thereof, such Holder is required to deliver a prospectus in connection with any disposition of Registrable Securities, it will comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it (unless an exemption therefrom is available) in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to

the Registration Statement, and shall sell the Registrable Securities only in accordance with a method of distribution described in the Registration Statement.

(a)The Company shall indemnify, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each Holder, its officers, directors, partners, managers, members, investment managers, employees, agents and representatives, and each Person who controls each Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable legal expenses) arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in (or incorporated by reference therein) any Registration Statement, free writing prospectus, roadshow, prospectus or preliminary prospectus, filing under any state securities (or blue sky) law or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement or (iii) any breach or violation of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any such indemnified party in any such case to the extent that (A) such claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in (or incorporated by reference therein) any Registration Statement, free writing prospectus, roadshow, prospectus or preliminary prospectus, filing under any state securities (or blue sky) law or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder or its representatives by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use therein, or (B) such claim is related to the use by a Holder or underwriter, if any, of an outdated or defective prospectus after such party has received written notice from the Company that such prospectus is outdated or defective. In connection with an underwritten offering, the Company shall indemnify such underwriters, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the holders of Registrable Securities.

(b)Each Holder shall, severally and not jointly, to the extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable legal expenses) arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in (or incorporated by reference therein) the Registration Statement, free writing prospectus, roadshow, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements herein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder or its representatives by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use therein; provided that each Holder shall be liable under this Section 7(b) (and otherwise) for only up to the net amount of proceeds actually received by each Holder as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(c)Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any Person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless, in the Company’s reasonable judgment, a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim,

permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After written notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement subsequently made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of the Company, a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which case the indemnifying party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of one additional firm of attorneys with respect to the indemnified parties.
