This REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of April 8, 2013 by and among SCG Financial Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and the parties set forth on the attached Schedule of Stockholders (each, a “Stockholder” and collectively, the “Stockholders”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned such terms in Section 8 hereof.


WHEREAS, the Company is party to (i) that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 11, 2013 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, SCG Financial Merger II Corp., a Delaware corporation and an indirect subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Reach Media Group Holdings, Inc. (“Target”) and Shareholder Representative Services LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, solely in its capacity as Stockholder Representative for and on behalf of the Target Holders thereunder, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into Target, with Target being the surviving entity and a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”) and (ii) that certain Payoff Letter referenced therein, as such letter was amended by agreement of March 26, 2013 between the Company and Obsidian Agency Services, Inc. (the "Payoff Letter Amendment"); and


WHEREAS, following the consummation of the Merger and pursuant to the terms of the Payoff Letter Amendment, the Stockholders will own 250,000 shares of Common Stock; and


WHEREAS, in order to induce Obsidian Agency Services, Inc. to enter into the Payoff Letter Amendment, the Company has agreed to provide the Stockholders with the registration rights set forth in this Agreement.


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 parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:


1.             Demand Registrations.


(a)             Requests for Registration. At any time following January 11, 2014, the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding Registrable Securities may request registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of their Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any successor form, or if such form is not then available to the Company, Form S-1 (a “Demand Registration”), which may if so requested be a “shelf” registration under Rule 415 under the Securities Act. A request for a Demand Registration shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered. Within ten (10) days after receipt of any such request, the Company shall give written notice of such requested registration to all other holders of Registrable Securities and shall include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within twenty (20) Business Days after the delivery of the Company’s notice.


(b)             Number. The holders of a majority of the then-outstanding Registrable Securities shall be entitled to request (i) one (1) Demand Registration in which the Company shall pay all Registration Expenses and (ii) an unlimited number of Demand Registrations in which the holders of Registrable Securities shall pay their share of the Registration Expenses as set forth in Section 5 hereof. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make Demand Registrations on Form S-3 available for the sale of Registrable Securities.


(c)             Priority on Demand Registration. Except for shares of Common Stock required to be included pursuant to the piggyback registration rights under the Other Registration Rights Agreements, the Company shall not include in any Demand Registration any securities which are not Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities requesting such registration. If a Demand Registration relates to an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of Registrable Securities and, if permitted hereunder, securities requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number of Registrable Securities and other securities, if any, which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within the price range acceptable to the holders of a majority of the requesting Registrable Securities, without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, the Company shall include in such registration prior to the inclusion of any securities which are not Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included which in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold in an orderly manner within the price range of such offering, pro rata among the holders of Registrable Securities to be included in such registration on the basis of the amount of Registrable Securities owned by each such holder.


(d)             Selection of Underwriters. With respect to a request for registration pursuant to Section 1(a) which is for an underwritten public offering, the managing underwriter shall be chosen by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering and approved by the Company (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

 

 

 

 

2.              Piggyback Registrations.


(a)             Right to Piggyback. Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act, including, without limitation, pursuant to a Demand Registration (other than in connection with registrations on Form S-8 or any successor form) and the registration form to be used may be used for the registration of Registrable Securities (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall give prompt written notice (in any event within three (3) Business Days prior to the filing of the registration statement relating to such registration) to all holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to effect such a registration and shall include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within twenty (20) calendar days after the delivery of the Company’s notice.


(b)             Piggyback Expenses. The Registration Expenses of the holders of Registrable Securities shall be paid by the Company in all Piggyback Registrations.


(c)             Priority on Primary Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary registration on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Company, the Company shall include in such registration (i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell, (ii) second, the securities requested to be included in such registration pursuant to this Agreement and the Other Registration Rights Agreements which in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold in an orderly manner within the price range of such offering, pro rata among the holders of such securities on the basis of the number of shares owned by each such holder, and (iii) third, other securities requested to be included in such registration.


(d)             Priority on Secondary Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten secondary registration, and the managing underwriters advise such party and the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering within a price range acceptable to such party and the Company, the Company shall include in such registration (i) first, the securities (if any) the Company proposes to sell, (ii) second, the securities requested to be included in such registration pursuant to this Agreement and the Other Registration Rights Agreements which in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold in an orderly manner within the price range of such offering, pro rata among the holders of such securities on the basis of the number of shares owned by each such holder, and (iii) third, other securities requested to be included in such registration.


(e)             Selection of Underwriters. If any Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary offering, the selection of investment banker(s) and manager(s) for the offering shall be approved by the Company.


(f)              Other Registrations. If the Company has previously filed a registration statement pursuant to this Agreement or any Other Registration Rights Agreement, and if such previous registration has not been withdrawn or abandoned, the Company shall not file or cause to be effected any other registration of any of its equity securities or securities convertible exchangeable into or exercisable for its equity securities under the Securities Act (except on Form S-8 or any successor form), whether on its own behalf or at the request of any holder or holders of such securities, until a period of at least ninety (90) days has elapsed from the effective date of such previous registration.


3.              Market Standoff Agreement.


(a)             Each Stockholder agrees that, if requested by the managing underwriter in connection with any follow-on public offering of the Company’s equity securities, such Stockholder will not effect any public sale or distribution (including sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of equity securities of the Company, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the period of time requested by such managing underwriter (in no event to be in excess of 90 days) following the effective date of such offering (except as part of such underwritten registration), unless the underwriters managing such offering otherwise agree.


(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 seven (7) days prior to and during the ninety (90)-day period beginning on the effective date of any underwritten public offering of the Company’s equity securities (except as part of such underwritten registration or pursuant to registrations on Form S-8 or any successor form), unless the underwriters managing the registered public offering otherwise agree, and (ii) shall cause 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) 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.

(b)           In connection with any registration statement in which a holder of Registrable Securities is participating, each such holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such registration statement or prospectus and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall indemnify the other sellers of securities included in such registration and the Company, its directors and officers and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) 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, 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 or affidavit so furnished in writing by such holder; provided that the obligation to indemnify shall be individual, not joint and several, for each holder.


(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. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld 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.


(d)           The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of Registrable Securities. The Company also agrees to make such provisions, as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party, for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.


(e)           If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable to or is insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under the provisions above in respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant the registered offering of securities as to which indemnity is sought but also the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party as well as any other relevant equitable considerations or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other in connection with the statement or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well any other relevant equitable considerations; provided that the obligation to contribute shall be individual, not joint and several, for each contributing party and shall be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such contributing party from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) to the Company bear to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) to the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the sellers of Registrable Securities and any other sellers participating in the registration statement on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether such untrue or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, by the sellers of Registrable Securities or other sellers participating in the registration statement and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

 

7.              PARTICIPATION IN UNDERWRITTEN REGISTRATIONS. No Person may participate in any registration hereunder which is underwritten unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Person or Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements; provided that no holder of Registrable Securities included any underwritten registration shall be required to make any representations or warranties to the Company or the underwriters (other than representations and warranties regarding such holder and such holder’s intended method of distribution) or to undertake any indemnification obligations to the Company or the underwriters with respect thereto, except as otherwise provided in Section 6 hereof.
