Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.2, if the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then there shall be excluded from such registration and underwriting to the extent necessary to satisfy such limitation, first shares held by Qualified Holders other than the Investors, and second, Founder Registrable Securities (in each case on a pro rata basis and pro rata to the respective number of Registrable Securities required by the Holders to be included in the registration); provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities (other than the Founder Registrable Securities) which shall have the right to participate in any proposed registration following the IPO shall not be reduced below twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate amount of securities included in such offering. If the offering is the IPO, the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities may be excluded further if the underwriters make the determination described above and no other stockholder’s securities are included in such offering. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 2.2 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration.

At any time beginning six (6) months following the closing of an IPO and continuing until five (5) years following the closing of an IPO, the Initiating Holders may request in writing that all or part of the Registrable Securities shall be registered for trading on any securities exchange or under any market system as to which any of the Company’s Ordinary Shares are then admitted for trading. Any such demand must request the registration of shares in a minimum amount of five million United States dollars ($5,000,000). Within twenty (20) days after receipt of any such request, the Company shall give written notice of such request to the other Holders (the “Demand Notice”) and shall include in such registration all Registrable Securities held by all such Holders who wish to participate in such demand registration and provide the Company with written requests for inclusion therein within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of the Company’s notice. Thereupon, as soon as practical, and in any event within sixty days (60) the Company shall effect the registration of all Registrable Securities as to which it has received requests for registration for trading on the securities exchange specified in the request for registration; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to effect any registration under this Section 2.3 within a period of one hundred and eighty (180) days following the effective date of a previous registration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.3, if the managing underwriter advises the Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then such shares shall be excluded from such registration and underwriting to the extent necessary to satisfy such limitation, first shares held by Qualified Holders other than the Investors, and second, Founder Registrable Securities (if any) (in each case on a pro rata basis and pro rata to the respective number of Registrable Securities required by the Holders to be included in the registration); provided, however, that in any event all Registrable Securities must be included in such registration prior to any other shares of the Company. The Company shall not register securities for sale for its own account in any registration requested pursuant to this Section 2.3 unless permitted to do so by the Initiating Holders. The Company shall not be required to effect more than two (2) registrations under this Section 2.3. The Company shall not be required to effect a registration pursuant to this Section 2.3 if (i) the Company shall furnish to Holders requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.3 a certificate signed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chairman of the Board stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its shareholders for such registration statement to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders under this Section 2.3, provided that such right to delay a request shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve (12) month period or (ii) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’ s estimated date of filing of, and ending on the date six (6) months immediately following the effective date of, any registration statement pertaining to securities of the Company (other than a registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction or with respect to an employee benefit plan), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective and that the Company’s estimate of the date of filing such registration statement is made in good faith. A registration shall not be counted as “effected” for purposes of this Section 2.3 until such time as the applicable registration statement has been declared effective by the SEC, unless the Initiating Holders withdraw their request for such registration, elect not to pay the registration expenses therefor pursuant to Section 2.6 below, in which case such withdrawn registration statement shall be counted as “effected” for purposes of this Section 2.3; provided, that if such withdrawal is during a period the Company has deferred taking action pursuant to this Section 2.3, then the Initiating Holders may withdraw their request for registration and such registration will not be counted as “effected” for purposes of this Section 2.3. The Company shall not be required to effect a registration pursuant to this Section 2.3 in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance.

2.4 Form F-3 (“Shelf”) Registration. Following an IPO, in the event that the Company shall receive from any Holder or Holders a written request or requests that the Company effect a registration on Form F-3, and any related qualification or compliance, with respect to Registrable Securities where the aggregate net proceeds from the sale of such Registrable Securities equal not less than $3,000,000, the Company will within twenty (20) days after receipt of any such request give written notice of the proposed registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders, and include in such registration all Registrable Securities held by all such Holders who wish to participate in such registration and provide the Company with written requests for inclusion therein within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of the Company’s notice. Thereupon, the Company shall effect such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as soon as practicable but in no event later than forty five (45) days from the Holder’s initial request, and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holder’ s or Holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however, if the managing underwriter advises the Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then, such shares shall be excluded from such registration and underwriting, to the extent necessary to satisfy such limitation, first shares held by Qualified Holders other than the Investors, and second, Founder Registrable Securities (if any) (in each case on a pro rata basis and pro rata to the respective number of Registrable Securities required by the Holders to be included in the registration); provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance, pursuant to this Section 2.4, (i) if Form F-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders; (ii) if the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public of less than $3,000,000; (iii) if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its shareholders for such Form F-3 registration statement to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form F-3 registration statement for a period of not more than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of the request of the Holder or Holders under this Section 2.4; provided, however, that the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period; (iv) if the Company has, within the twelve (12) month period preceding the date of such request, already effected two (2) registrations on Form F-3 pursuant to this Section 2.4; (v) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s estimated date of filing of, and ending on the date six (6) months immediately following the effective date of, any registration statement pertaining to securities of the Company (other than a registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction or with respect to an employee benefit plan), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective and that the Company’ s estimate of the date of filing such registration statement is made in good faith; or (vi) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance.
At the request of the Initiating Holder requesting a registration on Form F-3 (or comparable or successor form), such registration statement shall be a “shelf” registration statement for an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 or any successor rule under the Securities Act (the “Shelf Registration Statement”).
2.5 Designation of Underwriter.
(a) The Company shall not be required under these Sections 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 above to include any of the Holders’ securities in such underwriting unless such Holder accepts the terms of the underwriting agreement as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by other persons entitled to select the underwriters pursuant to this Section 2.5) and enters into an underwriting agreement in customary form with an underwriter or underwriters selected by the Company.
(b) In the case of any registration effected pursuant to Section 2.3 or 2.4, the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to Section 2.3 or Section 2.4, and the Company shall include such information in the Demand Notice. The Initiating Holders and the Company shall mutually designate the managing underwriter(s) in any underwritten offering.
(c) In the case of registration effected initiated by the Company, the Company shall have the right to designate the managing underwriter in any underwritten offering.

2.6 Expenses. All reasonable expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel for the Initiating Holders which will not exceed $150,000, incurred in connection with any registration under Section 2.2, Section 2.3 or Section 2.4 shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that each of the Holders participating in such registration shall pay its pro rata portion of discounts or commissions payable to any underwriter and stock transfer taxes. The Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Sections 2.2, 2.3 or 2.4 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Initiating Holders or any other holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, the Founder Registrable Securities) included in such request for registration (other than as a result of information which is made known by the Company to the Qualified Holders after the date on which such registration was requested which could reasonably have a material adverse effect on the business or financial condition of the Company) and in which case all Initiating Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata based upon the number of Registrable Securities that were to be included in the withdrawn registration, unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities agree to forfeit their right to one registration pursuant to Section 2.3.
2.7 Indemnities. In the event of any registered offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2:
2.7.1 The Company will indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any Holder (and each of its director, partners and officers) and any underwriter for such Holder, and each other person, if any, who controls the Holder or such underwriter, from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, liabilities, joint or several, costs and expenses (including any amounts paid in any settlement effected with the Company’s consent) to which the Holder or any such underwriter or controlling person may become subject under applicable law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, damages, claims, liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof), costs or expenses arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement or included in the prospectus, as amended or supplemented, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading, and the Company will reimburse the Holder, such underwriter and each such controlling person of the Holder or the underwriter, promptly upon demand, for any reasonable legal or any other expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending against or appearing as a third-party witness in connection with such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, damage, liability, cost or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished in writing by a Holder, such underwriter or such controlling persons in writing specifically for inclusion therein; provided, further, that this indemnity shall not be deemed to relieve any underwriter of any of its due diligence obligations or from its obligations under the underwriting agreement; provided, further, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 2.7.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the selling shareholder, the underwriter or any controlling person of the selling shareholder or the underwriter, and regardless of any sale in connection with such offering by the selling shareholder. Such indemnity shall survive the transfer of securities by a selling shareholder.

2.7.2 Each Holder participating in a registration hereunder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company (and each of its directors and officers), any underwriter for the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company or such underwriter, from and against any and all losses, damages, claims, liabilities, costs or expenses (including any amounts paid in any settlement effected with the selling shareholder’ s consent) to which the Company or any such controlling person and/or any such underwriter may become subject under applicable law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, damages, claims, liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof), costs or expenses arise out of or are based on (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement or included in the prospectus, as amended or supplemented, or (ii) the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, but, in each case, only to the extent of such information relating to such Holder and provided in writing by such Holder, and each such Holder will reimburse the Company, any underwriter and each such controlling person of the Company or any underwriter, promptly upon demand, for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending against or appearing as a third-party witness in connection with such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding; in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was so made in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder specifically for inclusion therein. The foregoing indemnity agreement shall be individual and several by each Holder. The foregoing indemnity is also subject to the condition that, insofar as it relates to any such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) made in the preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the amended prospectus at the time the registration statement becomes effective or in the final prospectus, such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of (i) the Company, (ii) any underwriter and any person, if any, controlling the Company or the Underwriter, if a copy of the Final Prospectus was not furnished (although it was required to be furnished by applicable law or agreement) to the person or entity asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior to the time such furnishing is required by the Securities Act. The foregoing indemnity agreement is subject to the condition that, insofar as it relates to any such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) made in the preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the amended prospectus at the time the registration statement becomes effective or in the final prospectus, such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of (i) the Company or any party that controls the Company, and (ii) any underwriter, if a copy of the final prospectus was not furnished to the person or entity asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior to the time such furnishing is required by the Securities Act; provided, further, that this indemnity shall not be deemed to relieve any underwriter of any of its due diligence obligations or other obligations under the underwriting agreement; provided, further, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 2.7.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holders, as the case may be, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In no event shall the liability of a Holder exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.
2.7.3 Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party pursuant to the provisions of Sections 2.7.1 or 2.7.2 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action) involving the subject matter of the foregoing indemnity provisions, such indemnified party will, if a claim thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party pursuant to the provisions of said Section 2.7.1 or 2.7.2, promptly notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the omission to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than hereunder, unless the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicing to an indemnifying party’s ability to defend such action. In case such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if the defendants in any action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and there is a conflict of interests which would prevent counsel for the indemnifying party from also representing the indemnified party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select one separate counsel to participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties to be reasonably approved by the indemnifying party. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party pursuant to the provisions of said Sections 2.7.1 or 2.7.2 for any legal or other expense subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed counsel in accordance with the provision of the preceding sentence, who was approved by the indemnifying party (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after the notice of the commencement of the action and within 30 days after written notice of the indemnified party’s intention to employ separate counsel pursuant to the previous sentence, or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party will consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

2.7.4 If recovery is not available under the foregoing indemnification provisions, for any reason other than as specified therein, the parties entitled to indemnification by the terms thereof shall be entitled to contribution to liabilities and expenses as more fully set forth in an underwriting agreement to be executed in connection with such registration. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, there shall be considered the parties’ relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted, the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission, and any other equitable considerations appropriate under the circumstances. In no event shall the liability of a Holder exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.
2.8 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required under this Section 2 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as possible:
2.8.1 prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for a period of up to twelve (12) months or, if sooner, until the distribution contemplated in the Registration Statement has been completed.

2.8.5 notify each holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act of the happening of any event that comes to its knowledge, as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing.
2.8.6 cause all Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed.

-10-
2.9 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Investors, except where such consent is not required under the Amended Articles, in connection with an issuance of shares having rights, privileges and preferences in parity with or superior to the Shares held by the Investors, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would allow such holder or prospective holder (a) to include such securities in any registration filed under Section 2 hereof, unless under the terms of such agreement, such holder or prospective holder may include such securities in any such registration only to the extent that the inclusion of such securities will not reduce the amount of the Registrable Securities of the Qualified Holders that are included; or (b) to demand registration of their securities.
2.10 Assignment of Registration Rights. Each Qualified Holder may assign its rights to cause the Company to register shares pursuant to this Section 2 to any transferee or assignee of all or any part of its Registrable Securities provided that such transfer is in accordance with the Company’s Amended Articles.
2.11 Lock-Up. In the event of an IPO, the parties hereto will not, without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter, during the period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to the IPO and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter (such period not to exceed one hundred and eighty (180) days in connection with the IPO and ninety (90) days in connection with any other offering, as is required by the underwriter in such offering) (i) lend, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares (whether such shares or any such securities are then owned by the shareholder or are thereafter acquired), or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Ordinary Shares, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Ordinary Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, provided that such obligation shall only apply if the officers, directors of the Company and other shareholders who hold at least five percent (5%) of the issued and outstanding capital are subject to the same restrictions and any release from such “lock-up” will be on a pro rata basis among all such lock-up parties. The underwriters in connection with the registration statement so filed are intended third party beneficiaries of this Section 2.11 and shall have the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions hereof if they were a party hereto. The foregoing provisions of this Section shall not apply to the sale of any shares to an underwriter pursuant to an underwriting agreement. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Ordinary Shares (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period.
2.12 Public Information. At any time and from time to time after the earlier of the close of business on such date as (a) a registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act becomes effective, (b) the Company registers a class of securities under Section 12 of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any federal statute or code which is a successor thereto (the “Exchange Act”), or (c) the Company issues an offering circular meeting the requirements of Regulation A under the Securities Act, the Company shall undertake to make publicly available such information as is necessary to enable the Qualified Holders to make sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144.

2.15.1 authorize its local counsel to furnish, at the request of the Company, on or about the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale in connection with a registration pursuant to this Agreement, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, or if such securities are not being sold through underwriters, on or about the date that the registration statement with respect to such securities becomes effective, an opinion, as reasonably required for the purposes of such registration.
2.15.2 in the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, and custody and power of attorney agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering, provided that the Company shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such agreement.

2.16 No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any registration pursuant to this Agreement as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 2.
2.17 Termination of Registration Rights. The right of any Holder to request registration or inclusion of Registrable Securities in any registration pursuant to Section 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of:
(a) the closing of a Deemed Liquidation, as such term is defined in the Amended Articles;
(b) such time after consummation of the IPO as rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or another similar exemption under the Securities Act is available for the offer and sale of all of such Holder’s Registrable Securities without limitation during a three-month period without registration; and
2.18 Restrictions on Transfers.
(a) All certificates representing Registrable Securities shall have endorsed thereon a legend to substantially the following effect:
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933. SUCH SHARES MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED, OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR A VALID EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF SAID ACT.”
“THE SALE OR TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE COMPANY’S ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION, AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME AND ANY AGREEMENT BY AND AMONG THE HOLDER HEREOF AND THE COMPANY. A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENTS IS ON FILE AT THE COMPANY’S PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS.”

-12-
(b) The holder of such Restricted Securities, by acceptance of ownership thereof, agrees to comply in all respects with the provisions of this Agreement. Before any proposed sale, pledge, or transfer of any Restricted Securities, unless there is in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the proposed transaction, the Holder thereof shall give notice to the Company of such Holder’s intention to effect such sale, pledge, or transfer. Each such notice shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed sale, pledge, or transfer in sufficient detail and, if reasonably requested by the Company, shall be accompanied at such Holder’s expense by either (i) a written opinion of legal counsel who shall, and whose legal opinion shall, be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, addressed to the Company, to the effect that the proposed transaction may be effected without registration under the Securities Act; (ii) a “no action” letter from the SEC to the effect that the proposed sale, pledge, or transfer of such Restricted Securities without registration will not result in a recommendation by the staff of the SEC that action be taken with respect thereto; or (iii) any other evidence reasonably satisfactory to counsel to the Company to the effect that the proposed sale, pledge, or transfer of the Restricted Securities may be effected without registration under the Securities Act, whereupon the Holder of such Restricted Securities shall be entitled to sell, pledge, or transfer such Restricted Securities in accordance with the terms of the notice given by the Holder to the Company. The Company will not require such a legal opinion or “no action” letter (x) in any transaction in compliance with SEC Rule 144; or (y) in any transaction in which such Holder distributes Restricted Securities to an Affiliate of such Holder for no consideration; provided that each transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms of this Section 2.18. Each certificate, instrument, or book entry representing the Restricted Securities transferred as above provided shall be notated with, except if such transfer is made pursuant to SEC Rule 144, the appropriate restrictive legend set forth in Section 2.18(a), except that such certificate instrument, or book entry shall not be notated with such restrictive legend if, in the opinion of counsel for such Holder and the Company, such legend is not required in order to establish compliance with any provisions of the Securities Act.
2.19 Registration Preference. If any factors arise which require a limitation of any of the registration rights granted hereunder and are limited in the amount of securities which may be registered thereunder by the Holders, then the Holders of Preferred Shares, with respect to their Preferred Shares only, shall have preference over all other Holders of the Company with respect to the applicable registration listing and/or sale of their Preferred Shares in connection therewith.
3 Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 and Other Applicable Anti-Bribery Laws. The Company recognizes that it is beneficial to it and its shareholders to comply with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended (the “FCPA”) and other applicable anti-bribery laws, rules or regulations. Neither the Company nor any director, officer, agent, employee, or other person acting on behalf of the Company has or will, directly or indirectly, violate any provision of the FCPA or any such other applicable anti-bribery laws, rules or regulations, including: (i) use any Company funds for unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment, or other expenses relating to political activity; (ii) make any unlawful payment to foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns from Company funds; (iii) establish or maintain any unlawful or unrecorded fund of Company moneys or other assets; or (iv) make or receive any unlawful bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback, or other payment. The Company shall promptly notify the Qualified Holders should the Company become aware of any enforcement action pursuant to the FCPA.

This Agreement may not be amended, and no provision hereof may be waived, in each case, in any way which would adversely affect the rights of the Founders hereunder in a manner disproportionate to any adverse effect such amendment or waiver would have on the rights of the other holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, without also obtaining the written consent of the majority in interest among the Founders.
