Section 3.                                           Required Registrations.

3.1                               At any time after six (6) months after the consummation of the Company’s initial public offering of its equity securities, the Initiating Shareholders may request in writing, on up to that number of separate occasions provided in the definition of “Initiating Shareholders”, that the Company effect a registration on Form S-1 (or any successor form) of Class A Registrable Shares owned by one or more Shareholders.  If the Initiating Shareholders intend to distribute the Class A Registrable Shares by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company in their request.  In the event such registration is underwritten, the right of other Shareholders to participate in such registration shall be conditioned on such Shareholders’ participation in such underwriting on the same terms and conditions.  Upon receipt of any such request from the Initiating Shareholders, the Company shall promptly give written notice of such proposed registration to all other Shareholders.  Such other Shareholders (other than any Shareholder that has at any time defaulted on its obligations in respect of a Reinsurance Draw) shall have the right, by giving written notice to the Company within thirty (30) days after the Company provides its notice, to elect to have included in such registration such of their Class A Registrable Shares as such Shareholders may request in such notice of election.  All Shareholders proposing to distribute their Class A Registrable Shares through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with an underwriter or underwriters that is mutually agreeable to the Company and the Shareholders holding a majority-in-interest of the Class A Registrable Shares that the Shareholders requested for inclusion in such registration.  The Company shall, at its own expense and as expeditiously as possible, use its best efforts to effect the registration, on Form S-1 (or any successor form), of all Class A Registrable Shares that the Company has been requested to so register.  If the underwriter advises the holders of Registrable Shares requesting registration hereunder that, in its good faith view, marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Company shall

5

exclude from such registration (a) first, securities held by any Person who does not have any contractual rights to cause the Company to register such securities (including, without limitation, any Shareholder that has at any time defaulted on its obligations in respect of a Reinsurance Draw), (b) second, securities held by any Person with such contractual rights other than those granted under this Agreement, (c) third, shares held by any Defaulting Investors pro rata among such Defaulting Investors on the basis of the respective number of Class A Registrable Shares owned by such holders requesting to be included in such registration, (d) fourth, shares held by the holders of Class A Registrable Shares who are Institutional Investors (other than any Defaulting Investors) pro rata among such holders on the basis of the respective number of Class A Registrable Shares owned by such holders requesting to be included in such registration, and (e) fifth, shares held by the holders of Class A Registrable Shares who are not Institutional Investors pro rata among such holders on the basis of the respective number of Class A Registrable Shares requested by them to be included in such registration.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to file a Registration Statement relating to any registration request under this Section 3.1 (i) unless the aggregate gross proceeds of the Registrable Shares to be sold in such offering is reasonably expected to be at least $50 million and (ii) within a period of ninety (90) days (or such lesser period as the managing underwriters in an underwritten offering may permit) after the effective date of any other Registration Statement relating to any registration requested under this Section 3.1 or Section 4.1.

If any Registration Statement requested pursuant to this Section 3.1 does not become effective or, after any Registration Statement requested pursuant to this Section 3.1 becomes effective, less than fifty percent (50%) of the Class A Registrable Shares requested to be included in such registration have been sold thereunder, the request for such registration shall not be included as one of the registrations or Shelf Takedowns (as defined below) that may be requested pursuant to this Section 3.1 or Section 3.3 and shall be at the sole expense of the Company (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, applicable underwriting discounts and commissions).

3.2                               The Company shall prepare and file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form relating to secondary offerings, hereinafter, “Shelf Registration Statement”) covering the resale of all of the Registrable Shares that are not then registered on an effective Registration Statement, subject to the limitations of the Shelf Registration Statement, on or prior to June 30, 2015.  The Company shall, as expeditiously as possible, use its best efforts to effect the registration on the Shelf Registration Statement of all such Registrable Shares and maintain the effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement until all applicable Registrable Shares have been sold as permitted by Rule 415 of the Securities Act.

3.3                               Subject to Section 3.4, the Initiating Shareholders shall have the right, on up to that number of separate occasions provided in the definition of Initiating Shareholders, to request that an underwritten offering be effected off the Shelf Registration Statement at any time (each such offering, a “Shelf Takedown”). Promptly (but in any event within five (5) Business Days) after receipt of a request that a Shelf Takedown be effected, the Company will deliver written notice thereof to each other Shareholder, and each such Shareholder may elect to participate in the Shelf Takedown by delivering to the Company a written request to so

6

participate within three (3) Business Days after such notice is received by any such Shareholder. All Shareholders proposing to distribute their Class A Registrable Shares through such Shelf Takedown shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with an underwriter or underwriters that is mutually agreeable to the Company and the Shareholders holding a majority-in-interest of the Class A Registrable Shares that the Shareholders requested for inclusion in such Shelf Takedown.  For the avoidance of doubt, each applicable Shareholder participating in such a Shelf Takedown shall be responsible for paying the underwriting discounts and commissions applicable to such Shareholder’s Registrable Shares sold by the underwriters in such Shelf Takedown. If the underwriter advises the holders of Registrable Shares requesting the Shelf Takedown hereunder that, in its good faith view, marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Company shall exclude from such Shelf Takedown (a) first, securities held by any Person who does not have any contractual rights to cause the Company to register such securities (including, without limitation, any Shareholder that has at any time defaulted on its obligations in respect of a Reinsurance Draw), (b) second, securities held by any Person with such contractual rights other than those granted under this Agreement, (c) third, shares held by any Defaulting Investors pro rata among such Defaulting Investors on the basis of the respective number of Class A Registrable Shares owned by such holders requesting to be included in such Shelf Takedown, (d) fourth, shares held by the holders of Class A Registrable Shares who are Institutional Investors (other than any Defaulting Investors) pro rata among such holders on the basis of the respective number of Class A Registrable Shares owned by such holders requesting to be included in such Shelf Takedown, and (e) fifth, shares held by the holders of Class A Registrable Shares who are not Institutional Investors pro rata among such holders on the basis of the respective number of Class A Registrable Shares requested by them to be included in such Shelf Takedown.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company be obligated to effect: (i) a Shelf Takedown pursuant to this Section 3.3 (y) unless the aggregate gross proceeds of the Registrable Shares to be sold in such offering is reasonably expected to be at least $50 million or (z) within a period of ninety (90) days (or such lesser period as the managing underwriters in an underwritten offering may permit) after the effective date of any registration statement relating to any registration effected pursuant to Section 3.1; or (ii) more than four (4) Shelf Takedowns pursuant to this Section 3.3 in any twelve-month period.

If any Shelf Takedown requested pursuant to this Section 3.3 is not effected or less than fifty percent (50%) of the Class A Registrable Shares requested to be included in such Shelf Takedown have been sold thereunder, the request for such Shelf Takedown shall not be included as one of the registrations or Shelf Takedowns that may be requested pursuant to Section 3.1 or this Section 3.3 and shall be at the sole expense of the Company (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, applicable underwriting discounts and commissions).

3.4                               If at the time of any request to register Class A Registrable Shares pursuant to this Section 3, (a) the Company has not delayed any other registration pursuant to this Section 3 for any period of time during the preceding twelve (12) month period and (b) the Company is engaged, or has fixed plans to engage within thirty (30) days of the time of such request, in a registered public offering as to which the Shareholders may include Class A Registrable Shares pursuant to Section 4, the Company may delay any such requested registration for up to ninety (90) days from the effective date of such offering; provided, that

7

such right to delay a request may be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve (12) month period.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled, from time to time, to delay the filing or postpone the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or require holders to suspend the use of the prospectus for sales of Registrable Shares under a Registration Statement for a reasonable period of time (a “Blackout Period”), which shall not exceed (i) two occasions during any twelve (12)-month period or (ii) sixty (60) days in the aggregate during any twelve (12)-month period, if the Company shall determine in good faith and in its reasonable judgment, after consultation with counsel, that it is required to disclose in the Registration Statement material, non-public information that would otherwise not be required to be disclosed and that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential. Any Blackout Period shall terminate upon the earlier of: (i) such time as the public disclosure of such information is made or determined to no longer be necessary; or (ii) after sixty (60) days.

Section 4.                                           Company Registration.

4.1                               Subject to Section 4.2, whenever the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement at any time and from time to time, it will, prior to such filing, promptly give written notice to all Shareholders of its intention to do so and, if the Company receives the written request of any Shareholder holding Registrable Shares (other than any Shareholder that has at any time defaulted on its obligations in respect of a Reinsurance Draw) within three (3) days after the Company provides such notice, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable Shares that the Company has been requested by such Shareholder or Shareholders to be registered under the Securities Act to the extent necessary to permit their sale or other disposition; provided, however, that (a) the rights set forth in this Section 4 shall not apply to Registration Statements to be filed pursuant to Section 3 hereof and (b) the Company shall have the right to postpone or withdraw any registration effected pursuant to this Section 4 without obligation to any Shareholder.

4.2                               In connection with any offering under this Section 4 involving an underwriting, the Company shall not be required to include any Registrable Shares in such underwriting unless the holders thereof accept the terms of the underwriting as reasonably agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it.  If the underwriter advises the holders of Registrable Shares requesting registration hereunder that, in its good faith view, marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Company shall exclude from such registration (a) first, securities held by any Person who does not have any contractual rights to cause the Company to register such securities (including, without limitation, any Shareholder that has at any time defaulted on its obligations in respect of a Reinsurance Draw), (b) second, securities held by any Person with such contractual rights other than those granted under this Agreement, (c) third, shares held by the holders of Other Registrable Shares pro rata among such holders on the basis of the respective number of Other Registrable Shares requested by them to be included in such registration, (d) fourth, shares held by any Defaulting Investors pro rata among such Defaulting Investors on the basis of the respective number of Class A Registrable Shares owned by such holders requesting to be included in such registration, (e) fifth, shares held by the holders of Class A Registrable Shares who are Institutional Investors (other than any Defaulting Investors) pro rata among such holders on the basis of the respective number of Class A Registrable Shares owned by such

8

holders requesting to be included in such registration, and (f) sixth, shares held by the holders of Class A Registrable Shares who are not Institutional Investors pro rata among such holders on the basis of the respective number of Class A Registrable Shares requested by them to be included in such registration, but in no event shall the amount of Class A Registrable Shares included in the offering pursuant to clauses (e) and (f) be reduced below thirty percent (30%) of the total amount of securities included in such offering unless such offering is the initial public offering of the Company’s securities and no other shareholder has included shares in such registration.

Section 5.                                           Registration Procedures.  If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions of this Agreement to effect the registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act, the Company shall:

5.1                               Prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Shares and use its best efforts to cause that Registration Statement to become and remain effective until the completion of the distribution;

5.2                               As expeditiously as reasonably practicable, prepare and file with the Commission any amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus included in the Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective, and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement;

connection with the settlement of any commenced or threatened litigation, insofar as such expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in (a) any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Shares were registered under the Securities Act, (b) any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained in the Registration Statement or (c) any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the securities law of any state or other jurisdiction or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction or otherwise in connection with the offering covered by such Registration Statement; and the Company will reimburse such Shareholder Indemnified Party for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by such Shareholder Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such expense, loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable to any Shareholder Indemnified Party in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or omission made in such Registration Statement, final prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reasonable reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing (or not furnished in the case of an omission or alleged omission) to the Company by or on behalf of such Shareholder Indemnified Party specifically for use in the preparation thereof.

7.2                               In the event of any registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, each selling Shareholder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of the Company’s directors and officers, each underwriter, if any, each Person, if any, who controls the Company or any such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, any other seller of Registrable Shares or any such seller’s members, managers, partners, officers and directors, and each Person, if any, who controls such seller within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (each, a “Company Indemnified Party”; and together with the Shareholder Indemnified Parties, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, Exchange Act, state securities or Blue Sky laws or otherwise, including any of the foregoing incurred in connection with the settlement of any commenced or threatened litigation, insofar as such expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in (a) any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Shares were registered under the Securities Act, (b) any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained in the Registration Statement or (c) any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and each such seller of Registrable Shares will reimburse the Company and each Indemnified Party for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company and each such Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if (and only if), in any case, the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of such seller, specifically for use in connection with the preparation of such Registration

12

Statement, prospectus, amendment or supplement; provided, however, that (i) the obligations of each such Shareholder hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds received by such Shareholder in connection with such offering of such Registrable Shares and (ii) no such Shareholder will be liable for any amount paid in settlement of any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Shareholder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

7.3                               Each Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification under this Section 7 shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided, however, that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party, whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; and, provided, further, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend against such claim or litigation is materially impaired as a result of such failure to give notice.  The Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall pay such expense if representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interests between the Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding.  No Indemnifying Party in the defense of any such claim or litigation shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation, and no Indemnified Party shall consent to entry of any judgment or settle such claim or litigation without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party.  Each Indemnified Party shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.

7.4                               In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is due in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party in respect to any expenses, losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such party may be subject in proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact related to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.  The Company and the Shareholders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section

13

7 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7.4, (a) in no case shall any one Shareholder be liable or responsible for any amount in excess of the net proceeds received by such Shareholder from the offering of Registrable Shares and (b) the Company shall be liable and responsible for any amount in excess of such proceeds; provided, however, that no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.  Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party or parties under this Section, notify such party or parties from whom such contribution may be sought, but the omission so to notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought shall not relieve such party from any other obligation it or they may have thereunder or otherwise under this Section.  No party shall be liable for contribution with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or claim settled without its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

7.5                               The obligations of the Company and the Shareholders under this Section 7 shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Shares in any Registration Statement and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 8.                                           Indemnification with Respect to Underwritten Offering.  In the event that Registrable Shares are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement in an underwritten offering pursuant to Section 3, the Company agrees to enter into an underwriting agreement containing customary representations and warranties with respect to the business and operations of the issuer of the securities being registered and customary covenants and agreements to be performed by such issuer, including without limitation customary provisions with respect to indemnification by the Company of the underwriters of such offering.  This Section 8 shall also apply to any selling Shareholder that would be deemed to be an underwriter for purposes of the Securities Act.

Section 9.                                           Obligations of Holders.  As a condition to be included in any Registration Statement, each holder of Registrable Shares included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such holder and the distribution proposed by such holder and execute such documents as the Company may reasonably request and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement.  Furthermore, each holder of Registrable Shares agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of either the commencement of a Blackout Period or the happening of an event pursuant to Sections 5.9 and 5.10 hereof, such holder will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Shares until such holder is advised by the Company that such dispositions may again be made.

Section 10.                                    Market Stand-Off Agreement.  In connection with any public offering, each Shareholder, if requested by the Company and the underwriters managing such public offering, shall agree not to sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Registrable Shares or, solely if such offering is the Company’s initial public offering or if such Shareholder is participating in such offering or such Shareholder is a person subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, other securities of the Company, held by such

14

Shareholder (other than those Registrable Shares included in the public offering) for a specified period of time determined by the Company and the underwriters following the effective date of a Registration Statement; provided, however, that:

(a)                                 such agreement shall not exceed one hundred eighty (180) days from the effective date of such registration in the case of the Company’s initial public offering and ninety (90) days from the date of the final prospectus relating to such offering in any other public offering; and

(b)                                 all Shareholders holding not less than the number of Common Shares held by such Shareholder (including Common Shares issuable upon the conversion of the Class A Common Shares, Class B-2 Common Shares or other convertible securities, or upon the exercise of options, warrants or other rights) and all officers and directors of the Company enter into similar agreements; provided, however, that all restrictions set forth in this Section 10 on all such Shareholders shall terminate and be of no further force or effect if any Shareholder, officer or director is released from, or otherwise no longer bound by, such restrictions.

Such agreement shall be in writing in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and such underwriter.  The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Shares or other securities subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of the stand-off period.

Section 11.                                    Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights.  The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Required Holders, enter into any agreement (other than this Agreement) with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would allow such holder or prospective holder either (a) to include securities of the Company in any Registration Statement filed under Section 3 or Section 4, (b) to make a demand registration that could result in such Registration Statement being declared effective prior to twelve (12) months after the Company’s initial public offering of its equity securities or (c) to have registration rights that are pari passu with or superior to the rights granted to the Shareholders under this Agreement.

Section 12.                                    Rule 144 Requirements.  After the earliest of (a) the closing of the sale of securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration Statement, (b) the registration by the Company of a class of securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act or (c) the issuance by the Company of an offering circular pursuant to Regulation A under the Securities Act, the Company agrees to:

(a)                                 comply with the requirements of Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act with respect to making and keeping available current public information about the Company;

(b)                                 use its best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and

(c)                                  furnish to any holder of Registrable Shares promptly after receipt of a written request (i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the requirements of said Rule 144(c), and the reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the

15

Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and (iii) such other reports and documents of the Company as such holder may reasonably request to avail itself of any similar rule or regulation of the Commission allowing it to sell any such securities without registration, including, without limitation, Rules 144 and 144A.

Section 13.                                    Selection of Underwriter.  The Company shall have the right to designate the managing underwriter in any underwritten offering, except for any registration effected pursuant to Section 3, which designation shall be subject to the approval of the Shareholders holding a majority of the Registrable Shares that all Shareholders requested to be included in such offering, and which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 14.                                    Mergers, Etc.  The Company shall not, directly or indirectly, enter into any merger, amalgamation or reorganization in which the Company shall not be the surviving corporation unless the proposed surviving entity shall, prior to such merger, amalgamation or reorganization, agree in writing to assume the obligations of the Company under this Agreement, and for that purpose references hereunder to “Registrable Shares” shall be deemed to be references to the securities that the Shareholder would be entitled to receive in exchange for Registrable Shares under the terms of any such merger, amalgamation or reorganization; provided, however, that the provisions of this Agreement shall not apply in the event of any merger, amalgamation or reorganization in which the Company is not the surviving entity if all Shareholders are entitled to receive in exchange for their Registrable Shares consideration consisting solely of (i) cash, (ii) securities of the acquiring corporation that may be immediately sold to the public without registration under the Securities Act or (iii) securities of the acquiring entity that the acquiring entity has agreed to register within ninety (90) days of completion of the transaction for resale to the public pursuant to the Securities Act.

Section 15.                                    Successors and Assigns.  Except as provided in Section 16, the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto.

Section 16.                                    Transfers of Certain Rights.

16.1                        Transfer of Rights.  The rights of each Shareholder under this Agreement may be transferred to a transferee or assignee of the Registrable Shares; provided, that the Shareholder shall, within ten (10) business days after such transfer, furnish to the Company written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the number of Registrable Shares with respect to which such rights are being assigned.  The transferee or assignee of a Shareholder’s rights and obligations hereunder shall be deemed a “Shareholder” for purposes of this Agreement.

16.2                        Joinder.  Any transferee of a Shareholder’s Registrable Shares, and any other Person that acquires Class A Registrable Shares after the date hereof, shall, as a condition to such transfer or acquisition, execute and deliver to the Company a joinder to this Agreement pursuant to which such Person agrees to become a party to this Agreement subject to the obligations applicable to a Shareholder pursuant to the terms set forth herein.

16

16.3                        Subsequent Transferees.  A transferee to whom rights are transferred pursuant to this Section 16 may not again transfer such rights to any other Person, other than as provided in Sections 16.1 and 16.2 above.

Section 17.                                    Miscellaneous.

17.1                        No Inconsistent Agreements.  The Company will not hereafter enter into any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with, grants any rights equal or superior to, or violates the rights granted to the holders of Registrable Shares in this Agreement without first obtaining the prior written consent of the Shareholders holding at least a majority of the Registrable Shares.

17.2                        Adjustments Affecting Registrable Shares.  The Company will not take any action, or permit any change to occur, with respect to its securities that would adversely affect the ability of the holders of Registrable Shares to include such Registrable Shares in a registration undertaken pursuant to this Agreement or that would adversely affect the marketability of such Registrable Shares in any such registration (including, without limitation, effecting a share split or a combination of shares).

17.3                        No Registration of Class A Common Shares or Class B-2 Common Shares.  The registration rights contained herein apply only to the Common Shares, and the Company shall never be obligated to register any of the Class A Common Shares or Class B-2 Common Shares.

17.4                        Amendment.  Any provision of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only by the written consent of the Company and the Required Holders; provided, however, that (a) no modification or amendment which adversely affects the rights or obligations of any Shareholder under this Agreement or any other Related Document (as defined in the Subscription Agreement) in a manner disproportionate to other holders of the same class or series of shares shall be effective without the written consent of such adversely and disproportionately affected Shareholder and (b) no modification or amendment which increases any Shareholder’s obligations to make payments to or on behalf of the Company or requires any Shareholder to assume additional liabilities in connection with its ownership of Company securities shall be effective without the written consent of such Shareholder.  Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 17.4 shall be binding upon the Company and each of the Shareholders and their respective successors and assigns.

17.5                        Specific Performance.  In addition to any and all other remedies that may be available at law, in the event of any breach of this Agreement, each Shareholder shall be entitled to specific performance of the agreements and obligations of the Company hereunder and to such other injunctive or other equitable relief as may be granted by a court of competent jurisdiction.

17.6                        Remedies Cumulative.  No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies at law or in equity.

17

17.7                        No Waiver.  No waiver of any provision or consent to any action shall constitute a waiver of any other provision or consent to any other action, whether or not similar.  No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent or commit a party to provide a waiver in the future except to the extent specifically set forth in writing.

17.8                        Jury Trial Waiver.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, and as separately bargained-for-consideration, each party hereby waives any right to trial by jury in any action, suit, proceeding or counterclaim of any kind arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

17.9                        GOVERNING LAW.                           THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS.

17.11                 Severability.  If any term or provision of this Agreement is determined to be illegal, unenforceable or invalid in whole or in part for any reason, such illegal, unenforceable or invalid provisions or part thereof shall be stricken from this Agreement, and such provision shall not affect the legality, enforceability or validity of the remainder of this Agreement.  If any provision or part thereof of this Agreement is stricken in accordance with the provisions of this Section 17.11, then such stricken provision shall be replaced, to extent possible, with a legal, enforceable and valid provision that is as similar in tenor to the stricken provision as is legally possible.

17.12                 Entire Agreement.  This Agreement and the exhibits referred to herein constitute the entire agreement among the parties and supersede all prior communications, representations, understandings and agreements of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.  All exhibits hereto are incorporated herein by reference.  Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any third party any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
