No later than 90 days prior to the expiration of the Relevant Restricted Period (any such date, the “Shelf Date”), the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement providing for registration and resale, on a continuous or delayed basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time, or any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC, of all of the Registrable Securities, provided that such obligation shall be satisfied if the Company shall have in effect an automatically effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR that will permit the registration and resale of all Registrable Securities (an “Existing Shelf Registration Statement”) as of the Shelf Date (any such registration statement, a “Shelf Registration Statement”); provided, further, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the existence of an Existing Shelf Registration Statement shall not have any effect on the restrictions set forth in Section 3.2.  The Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 (or any comparable or successor form or forms then in effect) under the Securities Act (or to the extent the Company is not eligible to use Form S-3 or any comparable or successor form or forms, on Form S-1 or any comparable or successor form or forms); provided, however, that if the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) at the time of filing of the Shelf Registration Statement with the SEC, such Shelf Registration Statement shall be designated by the Company as an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act).  In the event that the Shelf Registration Statement is not an automatic shelf registration statement, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act by the SEC as of the expiration of the Relevant Restricted Period.  The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earlier of (i) the date when all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement have been sold and (ii) the date on which the Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement are eligible to be sold or transferred without being subject to any holding period or volume limitations pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (the “Shelf Effective Period”).

Each Investor agrees that if such Investor wishes to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and related Prospectus, it will do so in accordance with this Section 4.1(b) and Section 4.5.  Each Investor wishing to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and related Prospectus, whether in an underwritten offering or otherwise, agrees to notify the Company of such intent (a “Shelf Take-Down Notice”) and shall deliver a Notice and Questionnaire to the Company at least five (5) Business Days prior to any intended distribution of Registrable Securities under the Shelf Registration Statement, it being agreed that if any Investor intends to distribute any Registrable Securities by means of an underwritten offering it shall promptly so advise the Company and the Company shall take all reasonable steps to facilitate such distribution, including the actions required pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(viii).  From and after the date the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable after the date a Notice and Questionnaire is delivered to it in connection with a Shelf Take-Down Notice:

(i)

if required by applicable Law, file with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or prepare and, if required by applicable Law, file a supplement to the related Prospectus or a supplement or amendment to any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that the Investor delivering such Notice and Questionnaire is named as a selling security

provide such Investor copies of any documents filed pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(i); and

(iii)

notify such Investor as promptly as practicable after the effectiveness under the Securities Act of any post-effective amendment filed pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(i);

provided, however, that if such Shelf Take-Down Notice or Notice and Questionnaire is delivered during a Suspension Period, the Company shall so inform the Investor delivering such Shelf Take-Down Notice or Notice and Questionnaire and shall take the actions set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above upon expiration of the Suspension Period in accordance with Section 4.5; provided, further, that the Investors shall not be entitled to deliver to the Company more than one (1) Shelf Take-Down Notice in any 12-month period and, in any event, each Shelf Take Down Notice may only be made if the sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Take Down Notice includes at least 25% of the shares of Company Common Stock into which the originally issued shares of the Preferred Stock may be converted or is reasonably expected to result in aggregate gross cash proceeds in excess of $50,000,000 (without regard to any underwriting discount or commission).  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall be under no obligation to name any Investor that has not delivered a Notice and Questionnaire to the Company as a selling security holder in any Shelf Registration Statement or related Prospectus.

(c)

If any of the Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement are to be sold in a firm commitment underwritten offering which underwritten offering was initially requested by the Investors pursuant to a Shelf Take-Down Notice, and the managing underwriter(s) of such underwritten offering advise the Investors in writing that it is their good faith opinion that the total number or dollar amount of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in such offering, together with any Other Securities proposed to be included by holders thereof which are entitled to include securities in such Registration Statement, exceeds the total number or dollar amount of such securities that can be sold without having an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the Registrable Securities to be so included, together with all such Other Securities, then there shall be included in such firm commitment underwritten offering the number or dollar amount of Registrable Securities and such Other Securities that in the opinion of such managing underwriter(s) can be sold without so adversely affecting such offering, and such number of Registrable Securities and Other Securities shall be allocated for inclusion as follows:

first, the Registrable Securities for which inclusion in such underwritten offering was requested by the Investors, pro rata (if applicable), based

At any time following the expiration of the Relevant Restricted Period, if the Company is unable to file, cause to be effective or maintain the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement as required under Section 4.1 hereof, subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 3.2, the Investors’ Representative shall have the right, by delivering a written notice to the Company (a “Demand Notice”), to require the Company to register under and in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act the number of Registrable Securities Beneficially Owned by any Investors and requested by such Demand Notice to be so registered (a “Demand Registration”); provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to effect a Demand Registration pursuant to this Section 4.2(a) after the Company has effected two (2) Demand Registrations pursuant to this Section 4.2(a); and provided, further, that the Investors shall not be entitled to deliver to the Company more than one (1) Demand Registration in any 12-month period and, in any event, a Demand Notice may only be made if the sale of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered by the Investors’ Representative includes at least 25% of the shares of Company Common Stock into which the originally issued shares of the Preferred Stock (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include all of the shares of Preferred Stock that were issued to each of the Investors and MSD under the Purchase Agreements) may be converted  or is reasonably expected to result in aggregate gross cash proceeds in excess of $50,000,000 (without regard to any underwriting discount or commission).  For all purposes under this Section 4.2(a), any Demand Registration delivered to the Company by MSD under the MSD Stockholder Agreement shall be considered to be a Demand Registration delivered under this Section 4.2(a) and a Joint Demand Registration shall be deemed to be a single Demand Registration under this Section 4.2(a).  A Demand Notice shall also specify the expected method or methods of disposition of the applicable Registrable Securities.  Following receipt of a Demand Notice, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file, as promptly as reasonably practicable, but not later than 30 days after receipt by the Company of such Demand Notice, a Registration Statement relating to the offer and sale of the Registrable Securities requested to be included therein by the Investors thereof in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by such Investors (a “Demand Registration Statement”) and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof.

(b)

If any of the Registrable Securities registered pursuant to a Demand Registration are to be sold in a firm commitment underwritten offering, and the managing underwriter(s) of such underwritten offering advise the Investors in writing that it is their good faith opinion that the total number or dollar amount of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in such offering, together with any Other Securities proposed to be included by holders thereof which are entitled to include securities in such Registration Statement, exceeds the total number or dollar amount of such securities that can be sold without having an adverse effect on the price,

-12-

---

timing or distribution of the Registrable Securities to be so included together with all such Other Securities, then there shall be included in such firm commitment underwritten offering the number or dollar amount of Registrable Securities and such Other Securities that in the opinion of such managing underwriter(s) can be sold without so adversely affecting such offering, and such number of Registrable Securities and Other Securities shall be allocated for inclusion as follows:

(i)

first, the Registrable Securities for which inclusion in such underwritten offering was requested by the Investors, pro rata (if applicable), based on the number of Registrable Securities Beneficially Owned by each such Investor; and

(ii)

second, among any holders of Other Securities, pro rata, based on the number of Other Securities Beneficially Owned by each such holder of Other Securities.

(c)

In the event of a Demand Registration, the Company shall be required to maintain the continuous effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement for a period of at least 180 days after the effective date thereof or such shorter period in which all Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement have actually been sold.

(d)

The Investors’ Representative (or in the case of a Joint Demand Registration, the Joint Representative) shall have the right to notify the Company that it has determined that the Registration Statement relating to a Demand Registration or a Joint Demand Registration, as the case may be, be abandoned or withdrawn, in which event the Company shall promptly abandon or withdraw such Registration Statement or Joint Demand Registration; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 4.2(a) hereof, which has been subsequently withdrawn pursuant to this Section 4.2(d) at the request of the Investors’ Representative (or in the case of a Joint Demand Registration, the Joint Representative), and shall be reimbursed by the Investors (or in the event of a Joint Demand Registration by each of the Investors and MSD on a pro rata basis) whose Registrable Securities were intended to be included in the Demand Registration Statement or Joint Demand Registration for reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including legal fees and printing expenses) so incurred, unless the withdrawal is based upon material adverse information concerning the Company that the Company had not publicly disclosed at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Company’s receipt of such Demand Notice.

(e)

Subject to Section 4.4, with the prior written consent of the Investors’ Representative (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Company shall be entitled to coordinate any offerings under this Section 4.2 with any offerings to be effected pursuant to similar agreements with the holders of Other Securities, including, if practicable, by filing one Registration Statement for all Other Securities.

SECTION 4.3.

Piggyback Registration.

(a)

At any time following the expiration of the Relevant Restricted Period, if, other than pursuant to Sections 4.1 and a Demand Registration requested by an Investor (as

-13-

---

defined in this Agreement), the Company proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering by the Company for its own account (other than a registration statement (a) on Form S-4, Form S-8 or any successor forms thereto, (b) filed solely in connection with any employee benefit or dividend reinvestment plan or (c) for the purpose of effecting a rights offering relating to the Company Common Stock) or for the account of any of its security holders, the Company will give to each Investor written notice of such filing at least fifteen (15) days prior to the anticipated filing date (the “Piggyback Notice”). The Piggyback Notice shall offer each Investor, subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 3.2, the opportunity to include in such registration statement the number of Registrable Securities (for purposes of this Section 4.3, “Registrable Securities” shall be deemed to mean solely securities of the same type and class as those proposed to be offered by the Company for its own account) as they may request (a “Piggyback Registration”).  Subject to Section 4.3(b), the Company shall include in each such Piggyback Registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within seven (7) days after notice has been given to the Investors.  The Company shall be required to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement for a Piggyback Registration for a period of 180 days after the effective date thereof or such shorter period in which all Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement have actually been sold.

(b)

If any of the securities to be registered pursuant to the registration giving rise to the Investors’ rights under this Section 4.3 are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the Investors shall be permitted to include all Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration in such offering on the same terms and conditions as any other shares of Capital Stock, if any, of the Company included therein; provided, however, that if such offering involves a firm commitment underwritten offering and the managing underwriter(s) of such underwritten offering advise the Investors in writing that it is their good faith opinion that the total number or dollar amount of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in such offering, together with all Other Securities that the Company and any other Persons having rights to participate in such registration intend to include in such offering, exceeds the total number or dollar amount of such securities that can be sold without having an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the Registrable Securities to be so included together with all such Other Securities, then there shall be included in such firm commitment underwritten offering the number or dollar amount of Registrable Securities and such Other Securities that in the opinion of such managing underwriter(s) can be sold without so adversely affecting such offering, and such number of Registrable Securities and Other Securities shall be allocated for inclusion as follows:

(i)

first, all Other Securities being sold by the Company or by any Person (other than an Investor) exercising a contractual right to demand registration pursuant to which such registration statement was filed; provided that if the registration statement triggering the Piggyback Notice was for an offering for the account of MSD pursuant to the terms of the MSD Stockholder Agreement and the Investors request a corresponding Piggyback Registration pursuant to this Section 4.3(b), then the priority in this clause (i) shall be allocated pro rata between MSD and the Investors (based on the number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered by such Person); and

-14-

---

(ii)

second, among any other holders of Registrable Securities or Other Securities requesting such registration, pro rata, based on the aggregate number of Registrable Securities and Other Securities Beneficially Owned by each such holder.

(c)

The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 4.3 prior to the effectiveness of the related Registration Statement and shall have no obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration, except to the extent provided herein.  The Registration Expenses of such withdrawn Piggyback Registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 4.4 hereof.

(d)

Any Investor shall have the right to withdraw its request for inclusion of its Registrable Securities in any Piggyback Registration by giving written notice to the Company of its request to withdraw at least two (2) Business Days prior to the planned effective date of the related Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to this Section 4.3, which has been subsequently withdrawn pursuant to this Section 4.3(d) at the request of the applicable Investor, and shall be reimbursed by the Investors whose Registrable Securities were intended to be included in the Piggyback Registration for reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including legal fees and printing expenses) so incurred, unless the withdrawal is based upon  material adverse information concerning the Company that the Company had not publicly disclosed at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Company’s receipt of such Piggyback Notice.

SECTION 4.4.

Registration Expenses.  In connection with registrations pursuant to Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 hereof, the Company shall pay all of the registration expenses incurred in connection with the registration thereunder (the “Registration Expenses”), including, without limitation, all:  (a) reasonable registration and filing fees, (b) reasonable fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities), (c) reasonable processing, duplicating and printing expenses, (d) internal expenses of the Company (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), (e) fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities, (f) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, fees and expenses for independent certified public accountants retained by the Company (including the expenses of any comfort letters or costs associated with the delivery by independent certified public accountants of a comfort letter or comfort letters requested but not the cost of any audit other than a year end audit) and reasonable and documented fees and expenses of one counsel (including applicable local counsel as necessary) for the Selling Investors not in excess of $50,000 and (g) fees and expenses of any special experts retained by the Company in connection with such registration.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Selling Investor shall be responsible for (i) any underwriting fees, discounts or commissions, (ii) any commissions of brokers and dealers, and (iii) capital gains, income and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale of Registrable Securities of such Selling Investor.  For purposes of this Section 4.4, the term “Selling Investor” shall include Persons who are “Selling Investors” under the MSD Stockholders Agreement.

SECTION 4.5.

Registration Procedures.

(a)

In connection with the registration of any Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement:

(i)

The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities as provided herein, make all required filings with FINRA and use commercially reasonable efforts to keep each Registration Statement continuously effective during the period such Registration Statement is required to remain effective pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; upon the occurrence of any event that would cause the Registration Statement or the Prospectus contained therein (A) to contain a material misstatement or omission or (B) not to be effective and usable for resale of Registrable Securities during the period such Registration Statement is required to remain effective pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall file promptly an appropriate amendment to the Registration Statement, a supplement to the Prospectus or a report filed with the SEC pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, in the case of clause (A), correcting any such misstatement or omission, and, in the case of either clause (A) or (B), the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such amendment to be declared effective and the Registration Statement and the related Prospectus to become usable for their intended purposes as soon as practicable thereafter.

(ii)

Notwithstanding Section 4.5(a)(i) hereof, the Company may suspend the effectiveness of a Registration Statement and the Investors’ right to sell thereunder (each such period, a “Suspension Period”) if the Company reasonably determines and delivers to the Investors a certificate signed by an officer of the Company stating that such Registration Statement or further sales under an effective Registration Statement would have a detrimental effect, as reasonably determined by the Company, on the Company or a plan currently being considered by the Company or the Board of Directors.  Upon such suspension, the Company shall give notice to the Investors listed in such Registration Statement that the availability of the Registration Statement is suspended and, upon actual receipt of such notice, each Investor agrees not to sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement until the earlier of (1) such Investor’s receipt of copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus provided for in this Section 4.5 or (2) such Investor has been advised in writing by the Company that the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement may resume.  A Suspension Period shall not exceed 90 consecutive days and the aggregate of all Suspension Periods shall not exceed 180 days in any 360-day period.

(iii)

The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to each Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective during the periods provided herein.

(iv)

The Company shall advise any Investor that has provided in writing to the Company a telephone or facsimile number and address for notice, promptly (which notice pursuant to clauses (B) through (D) below shall be accompanied by an

-16-

---

instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the Company shall have remedied the basis for such suspension):

(A)

when the Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment is proposed to be or has been filed, and, with respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has become effective;

(B)

of any request by the SEC or any other Governmental Entity for amendments to the Registration Statement or amendments or supplements to the Prospectus or for additional information relating thereto;

(C)

of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement under the Securities Act or of the suspension by any state securities commission of the qualification of the Registrable Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the threatening or initiation of any proceeding for any of the preceding purposes;

(D)

of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; or

(E)

of the existence of any fact or the happening of any event, during the period in which a Registration Statement remains effective under the Securities Act, that makes any statement of a material fact made in such Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein untrue, or that requires the making of any additions to or changes in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus in order to make the statements therein not misleading.

(v)

The Company shall, unless any Registrable Securities shall be in book-entry form only, cooperate with the Investors to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold and not bearing any restrictive legends (unless required by applicable securities Laws), and enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the Investors may request at least two (2) Business Days before any sale of Registrable Securities.  In connection therewith, if reasonably required by the Company’s transfer agent, the Company shall promptly deliver any authorizations, certificates and directions required by the transfer agent which authorize and direct the transfer agent to issue such Registrable Securities without legend upon sale by the holder of such shares of Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement.

(vi)

The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly register or qualify any Registrable Securities under such other securities or blue

-17-

---

sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any Investor reasonably requests and which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such Investor to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investor, keep such registrations or qualifications in effect for so long as the Registration Statement remains in effect and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such Investor to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investor; provided, however, that the Company will 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 Agreement, (B) subject itself to taxation in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be subject to taxation but for this Agreement or (C) consent to general service of process in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be subject to such service but for this Agreement.

(vii)

The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly cause any Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other Governmental Entity within the United States as may be necessary to enable the seller or sellers thereof to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended methods of disposition set forth in such Registration Statement.

(viii)

The Company shall, in the event that the Investors’ Representative advises the Company that an Investor intends to distribute any Registrable Securities by means of an underwritten offering, whether pursuant to Section 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3, enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form, scope and substance and take all such other actions reasonably requested by the Investors owning a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold in connection therewith or by the managing underwriter(s), if any, to expedite or facilitate the underwritten disposition of such Registrable Securities and deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the Investors of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold in connection therewith, their counsel and the managing underwriter(s), if any.

(ix)

Use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent, or obtain the withdrawal of, any stop order or other order suspending the use of any Prospectus.

(x)

Deliver to each Selling Investor and each underwriter, if any, without charge, as many copies of the applicable Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto as such Selling Investor or underwriter may reasonably request.

(xi)

Cooperate with each Selling Investor and the underwriters, if any, of such Registrable Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required by Law to be made with FINRA.

(xii)

Obtain opinions of counsel to the Company and updates thereof addressed to each Selling Investor and the underwriters or initial purchasers, if any, covering matters as are customarily requested in opinions covering secondary resale

-18-

---

offerings of companies of comparable size, maturities and lines of business as the Company.

(xiii)

Obtain "comfort" letters and updates thereof from the Company's independent certified public accountants, such letters covering matters as are customarily requested in comfort letters covering secondary resale offerings of companies of comparable size, maturities and lines of business as the Company.

(b)

Each Investor agrees by acquisition of a Registrable Security that no Investor shall be entitled to sell any of such Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement, or to receive a Prospectus relating thereto, unless such Investor has furnished the Company with a Notice and Questionnaire (including the information required to be included in such Notice and Questionnaire) and the information set forth in the next sentence.  The Company may require each Investor selling Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement to furnish to the Company such information regarding such Investor and the distribution of such Company Common Stock as the Company may from time to time reasonably require for inclusion in such Registration Statement.  Each such Investor agrees promptly to furnish to the Company all information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Company by such Investor not misleading.  Any sale of any Registrable Securities by any Investor shall constitute a representation and warranty by such Investor that the information relating to such Investor and its plan of distribution is as set forth in the Prospectus delivered in connection with such disposition, that such Prospectus does not as of the time of such sale contain any untrue statement of a material fact relating to or provided by such Investor or its plan of distribution and that such Prospectus does not as of the time of such sale omit to state any material fact relating to or provided by such Investor or its plan of distribution necessary to make the statements in such Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.  The Company may exclude from such Registration Statement the Registrable Securities of any Investor that fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request. The Company shall not include in any Registration Statement any information regarding, relating to or referring to any Investor or its plan of distribution without the approval of such Investor in writing.

(c)

No Investor shall use any free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(d)

If any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement or any Demand Registration is an underwritten offering, it is agreed that, unless the Company otherwise consents in writing, either Barclays Capital Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC or Banc of America Securities LLC shall be either the managing underwriter or lead book running manager.

SECTION 4.6.

Indemnification.

(a)

The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by Law (i) each Selling Investor whose Registrable Securities are covered by a

-19-

---

Registration Statement or Prospectus, (ii) the officers, directors, partners (limited and general), members, managers, representatives, agents and employees of each of such Selling Investors, (iii) each member, limited or general partner of each such member, limited or general partner, (iv) each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) each such Selling Investor and such controlling Person’s Affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, employees, advisors and agents , (v) each underwriter (including any Investor that is deemed to be an underwriter pursuant to any SEC comments or policies), if any, and (vi) each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) such underwriter (collectively, “Investor Indemnitees”), from and against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, penalties, judgments, suits, costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”) in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement arising out of or based upon (i) any violation or alleged violation of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder by the Company or any of its Affiliates, employees, officers, directors or agents or (ii) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or any Prospectus (including preliminary or final) relating to the registration of such Registrable Securities or any amendment or supplement thereto or any document incorporated by reference therein or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to such Investor Indemnitee in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based upon (A) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement, including any such preliminary or final Prospectus contained therein or any such amendments or supplements thereto, or contained in any free writing prospectus (as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) prepared by the Company or authorized by it in writing for use by such Investor Indemnitee (or any amendment or supplement thereto), in reliance upon and in conformity with information regarding such Investor Indemnitee or its plan of distribution or ownership interests which was furnished in writing to the Company for use in connection with such Registration Statement, including any such preliminary or final Prospectus contained therein or any such amendments or supplements thereto, (B) offers or sales effected by or on behalf of such Investor Indemnitee “by means of” (as defined in Rule 159A under the Securities Act) a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) that was not authorized in writing by the Company or (C) the failure of any Investor Indemnitee to deliver or make available to a purchaser of Registrable Securities a copy of any Registration Statement, including any preliminary or final Prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto (if the same was required by applicable Law to be delivered or made available); provided, that the Company shall have delivered to such Investor Indemnitee such Registration Statement, including such preliminary or final Prospectus contained therein and any amendments or supplements thereto.

(b)

In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Selling Investor is participating by registering Registrable Securities, such Selling Investor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, severally and not jointly, the Company, the officers, directors, agents, representatives or other employees of the Company, each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Company, each underwriter, if any, and each Person who controls

-20-

---

(within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) such underwriter (collectively, “Company Indemnitees”), from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of or based on any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any such Registration Statement or preliminary or final Prospectus relating to the registration of such Registrable Securities or any amendment or supplement thereto or any document incorporated by reference therein, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, in each case solely to the extent that such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission is made in such Registration Statement or in any preliminary or final Prospectus contained therein or any such amendments or supplements thereto or contained in any free writing prospectus (as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Selling Investor expressly for inclusion in such document.

(c)

If any Person shall be entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall give prompt notice to the party from which such indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim or of the commencement of any Action with respect to which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification or contribution pursuant hereto; provided, however, that the delay or failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation or liability except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been actually prejudiced by such delay or failure.  The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to an Indemnified Party promptly after the receipt of written notice from such Indemnified Party of such claim or Action, to assume, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, the defense of any such Action, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless: (i) the Indemnifying Party agrees to pay such fees and expenses; (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails promptly to assume, or in the event of a conflict of interest cannot assume, the defense of such Action or fails to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, in which case the Indemnified Party shall also have the right to employ counsel and to assume the defense of such Action or (iii) in the Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party may exist in respect of such Action; provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one such Action or separate but substantially similar or related Actions in the same jurisdiction, arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one firm of attorneys (together with appropriate local counsel) at any time for all of the Indemnified Parties, or for fees and expenses that are not reasonable.  Whether or not such defense is assumed by the Indemnifying Party, neither the Indemnifying Party nor the Indemnified Party will be subject to any liability for, or otherwise effect, any settlement made without the consent of the other (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(d)

Neither party shall settle, compromise, discharge or consent to an entry of judgment with respect to a claim or liability subject to indemnification under this Section 4.6 without the other parties’ prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably

-21-

---

withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that the Indemnifying Party may agree without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party to any settlement, compromise, discharge or consent to an entry of judgment, in each case that relates only to money damages and by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such claim and which unconditionally releases the Indemnified Party from all liability in connection with such claim.

(e)

If the indemnification provided for in this Section 4.6 is unavailable to hold harmless each of the Indemnified Parties against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses to which such parties may become subject under the Securities Act, then the Indemnifying Party shall, in lieu of indemnifying each party entitled to indemnification hereunder, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and such Indemnified Parties on the other in connection with the statements or omissions or alleged statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses.  The relative fault of such parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, relates to information supplied by or concerning the Indemnifying Party on the one hand, or by such Indemnified Party on the other, and such party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to have corrected or prevented such statement or omission.  No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person that is not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

SECTION 4.7.

(b)

Subject to the provisions hereof, in the event the Company proposes to enter into an underwritten public offering, each Investor who, at such time, Beneficially Owns Preferred Stock (which for the purposes of this subsection, shall include any Company Common Stock issuable by the Company upon conversion of any shares of Preferred Stock) and Company Common Stock that, in the aggregate, is equal to at least four percent (4%) of the total number of shares of Company Common Stock then outstanding agrees to enter into a customary agreement with the managing underwriters not to effect any sale or distribution of equity securities of the Company, or any securities convertible, exchangeable or exercisable for or into such securities, during the period beginning up to two (2) days prior to the date of such offering and extending for up to 90 days following the effective date of such offering if so requested by the Company and the underwriters.  The Company may impose stop-transfer restrictions with respect to the securities subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of the required stand-off period and shall lift such stop-transfer restrictions immediately upon the end of such period.
