(a)Requests for Registration. At any time and from time to time following the last day of the Holding Period, any Investor (the “Requesting Investor”) may request in writing that the Company effect the registration under and in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of all or any part of the Registrable Securities held by such Investor and any of its Affiliates who are Investor Holders (each, a “Demand Request”). Promptly after its receipt of any Demand Request, but no later than 10 days after receipt by the Company of such Demand Request, the Company shall give written notice of such request to all other Holders (the “Demand Follow-Up Notice”), and shall use its reasonable best efforts to file, as promptly as reasonably practicable but not later than 30 days after receipt by the Company of such Demand Request, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, a Registration Statement covering all Registrable Securities that have been requested to be registered (i) in the Demand Request and (ii) by any other Holders by written notice to the Company given within 7 calendar days after the date the Company has given such Holders notice of the Demand Request, in accordance with the method or methods of disposition of the applicable Registrable Securities elected by the Requesting Investor, provided, however, that in case of a Demand Registration with respect to a Block Sale, the Registration Statement shall cover Registrable Securities that have been requested to be registered by any other Holders by written notice to the Company given within one Business Day. Any registration requested pursuant to this Section 1(a) is referred to in this Agreement as a “Demand Registration.” The Company shall pay all expenses (subject to and in accordance with Section 4) incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to this Section 1.

All requests made pursuant to this Section 1 will specify the number of Registrable Securities to be registered, and the intended method or methods of disposition thereof.

(b)Limitations on Demand Registration and Shelf Underwritten Offering. The CD&R Investors and their Affiliates who are Investor Holders shall be entitled to initiate no more than six (6) Demands in the aggregate, and the Golden Gate Investors and their Affiliates who are Investor Holders shall be entitled to initiate no more than two (2) Demands in the aggregate,provided,however, that (i) (A) in respect of five out of the six such Demands to which the CD&R Investors are entitled under this Agreement and (B) with respect to one out of the two such Demands to which the Golden Gate Investors and their Affiliates are entitled under this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to effect such Demands unless the amount of Registrable Securities requested to be registered by the Requesting Investor and its Affiliates that are Investor Holders is reasonably expected to result in aggregate gross proceeds (prior to deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses) of at least $100 million, with respect to Demands initiated by a CD&R Investors, and $75 million, with respect to Demands initiated by the Golden Gate Investors, and (ii) the Investors may not initiate, and the Company shall not be obligated to effect, more than three Demands in the aggregate during any 12-month period. “Demand” means any Demand Registration or Shelf Underwritten Offering;provided, that, for purposes of clause (i), “Demand” shall exclude any Shelf Underwritten Offering executed as a Block Sale without marketing efforts by the Company and, for the avoidance of doubt, participation in due diligence customarily conducted in connection with a Block Sale shall not constitute “marketing efforts.” No request for registration shall count for the purposes of the limitations in this Section 1(b) if (A) the Requesting Investor determines in good faith to withdraw (prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement relating to such request) the proposed registration due to marketing conditions or regulatory reasons prior to the execution of an underwriting agreement or purchase agreement relating to such request, (B) the Registration Statement relating to a Demand Request is not declared effective within 180 days of the date such Registration Statement is filed with the Commission (other than solely by reason of the Requesting Investor having refused to proceed or a misrepresentation or an omission by the applicable Holders), (C) prior to the sale of at least 85% of the Registrable Securities included in the applicable registration relating to a Demand Request, such registration is adversely affected by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or other governmental agency or court for any reason and the Company fails to have such stop order, injunction, or other order or requirement removed, withdrawn or resolved to the reasonable satisfaction of the Requesting Investor and its Affiliates that are Investor Holders within 30 days of the date of such order, (D) more than 15% of the Registrable Securities requested by such Requesting Investor and its Affiliates that are Investor Holders to be included in such registration are not so included pursuant to Section 1(f), or (E) the conditions to closing specified in any underwriting agreement or purchase agreement entered into in connection with the registration relating to such request are not satisfied (other than as a result of a default or breach thereunder by the Investors that proximately and primarily caused the failure of such conditions). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall pay all expenses (subject to and in accordance with Section 4) in connection with any request for registration pursuant to Section 1(a).

(c)Short-Form Registrations.

(i) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file a registration statement on Form S-3 or any comparable or successor form or forms or any similar short-form registration statement (a “Short-Form Registration”) prior to the expiration of the Holding Period with respect to Fund VIII and the Golden Gate Investors, and such Short-Form Registration shall be a “shelf” registration statement providing for the registration of, and the sale on a continuous or delayed basis of the Registrable Securities, pursuant to Rule 415 or otherwise (a “Shelf Registration Statement”). In no event shall the Company be obligated to effect any shelf registration other than pursuant to a Short-Form Registration. The Company shall pay all expenses (subject to and in accordance with Section 4) in connection with any Short-Form Registration.

(ii) Upon filing any Short-Form Registration, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Short-Form Registration effective with the Commission at all times and to re-file such Short-Form Registration upon its expiration, and to cooperate in any shelf take-down, whether or not underwritten, by amending or supplementing the Prospectus related to such Short-Form Registration as may be reasonably requested by an Investor Holder, or as otherwise required, until such time as all Registrable Securities that could be sold in such Short-Form Registration have been sold or are no longer outstanding.

(iii) To the extent the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405) (a “WKSI”) at the time it files the Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 1(c)(i) or at any time thereafter, the Company shall file an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405) on Form S-3 (an “Automatic Shelf Registration Statement”) in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, which covers those Registrable Securities which are requested to be registered. The Company shall pay the registration fee for all Registrable Securities to be registered pursuant to an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement at the time of filing of the Automatic Shelf Registration Statement and shall not elect to pay any portion of the registration fee on a deferred basis. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to remain a WKSI (and not to become an ineligible issuer (as defined in Rule 405)) during the period during which any Automatic Shelf Registration Statement is effective. If at any time following the filing of an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement when the Company is required to re-evaluate its WKSI status the Company determines that it is not a WKSI, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to post-effectively amend the Automatic Shelf Registration Statement to a Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 or file a new Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 or, if such form is not available, Form S-1, have such Shelf Registration Statement declared effective by the Commission and keep such Registration Statement effective during the period during which such Short-Form Registration is required to be kept effective in accordance with Section 1(c)(ii).

(d)Restrictions on Demand Registrations. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement, with respect to a Demand Registration, would require the Company to make a public disclosure of material non-public information, which disclosure in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors (after consultation with external legal counsel) (i) would be required to be made in any Registration Statement so that such Registration Statement would not be materially misleading, (ii) would not be required to be made at such time but for the filing, effectiveness or continued use of such Registration Statement or (iii) would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company or its business or on the Company’s ability to effect abona fide and reasonably imminent material proposed acquisition, disposition, financing, reorganization, recapitalization or similar transaction, then the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders participating in such registration, delay the filing or initial effectiveness or, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement;provided, that the Company shall not be permitted to do so (x) more than once in any 6-month period or (y) for any single period of time in excess of 45 days, or for periods exceeding, in the aggregate, 90 days during any 12-month period. In the event that the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, such Holders agree to suspend, promptly upon receipt of the notice referred to above, the use of any Prospectus relating to such registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities. If the Company so postpones the filing of a Prospectus or the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, the Requesting Investor shall be entitled to withdraw such request and, if such request is withdrawn, such registration request shall not count for the purposes of the limitations set forth in Section 1(b) or Section 7(a). The Company shall pay all expenses (subject to and in accordance with Section 4) incurred in connection with any such aborted registration or prospectus.

(e)Selection of Underwriters. If the Requesting Investor intends that the Registrable Securities covered by its Demand Request shall be distributed by means of an underwritten offering, the Requesting Investor shall so advise the Company as a part of the Demand Request, and the Company shall include such information in the notice sent by the Company to the other Holders with respect to such Demand Request. In such event, the lead underwriter to administer the offering shall be chosen by the Requesting Investor, subject to the prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, of the Company;provided,however, that with respect to any such offering in which the CD&R Investors participate, the lead underwriter to administer the offering shall be chosen by the CD&R Investors, subject to the prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, of the Company.

(f)Priority on Demand Registrations. The Company shall not include in any underwritten registration pursuant to this Section 1 any securities that are not Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the Requesting Investor. If any of the Registrable Securities registered pursuant to a Demand Registration are to be sold in a firm commitment underwritten offering, and the managing underwriter(s) of such underwritten offering advises the Holders that, in its good faith opinion, the total number or dollar amount of Registrable Securities (and, if permitted hereunder, Other Securities requested to be included in such offering) exceeds the largest number or dollar amount of securities that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), the Company shall include in such offering only such number of securities that in the good faith opinion of such underwriter can be included without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, which securities shall be so included in the following order of priority:

(i) first, in the case of a registration requested by either the Golden Gate Investors or Affiliates of a Golden Gate Investor or a CD&R Investor or Affiliates of a CD&R Investor,pro rata (if applicable) among the CD&R Investors, the Golden Gate Investors and their respective Affiliates on the basis of the aggregate number of Registrable Securities owned by the CD&R Investors, the Golden Gate Investors and their respective Affiliates, until with respect to each such Holder, all Registrable Securities requested for registration by such Holders have been included in such registration;

(g)Cancellation of Demand Registration. The Requesting Investor shall have the right to notify the Company at least two Business Days prior to the effectiveness of a Registration Statement relating to a Demand Registration that such Registration Statement be abandoned or withdrawn, in which event the Company shall promptly abandon or withdraw such Registration Statement. Any Holder who has elected to sell Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering pursuant to this Section 1 (including the Requesting Investor) shall be permitted to withdraw from such registration by written notice to the Issuer if the price to the public at which the Registrable Securities are proposed to be sold will be less than 90% of the average closing price of the class of stock in the offering during the 10 trading days preceding the date on which the Demand Notice of such offering was given.

2. Piggyback Registrations.

(a)Right to Piggyback. If, at any time following the last day of the Holding Period, the Company proposes or is required to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of securities of the Company, whether or not for sale for its own account (including, but not limited to, a Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 or any successor form, but excluding a Registration Statement that is (i) solely in connection with a Special Registration or (ii) pursuant to a Demand Registration in accordance with Section 1 hereof), the Company shall give written notice (a “Piggyback Notice”) as promptly as practicable, but not later than 30 days prior to the anticipated date of filing of such Registration Statement, to all Holders of its intention to effect such registration and shall include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written notice from Holders for inclusion therein within 15 days after the date of the Company’s notice (a “Piggyback Registration”).

The Company may terminate or withdraw any registration under this Section 2 prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration.

If the Company files any Shelf Registration Statement for the benefit of the holders of any of its securities other than the Holders, the Company agrees that it shall use its reasonable best efforts to include in such registration statement such disclosures as may be required by Rule 430B under the Securities Act (referring to the unnamed selling security holders in a generic manner by identifying the initial offering of the securities to the Holders) in order to ensure that the Holders may be added to such Shelf Registration Statement at a later time through the filing of a Prospectus supplement rather than a post-effective amendment.

Subject to the limitations on the Company’s ability to delay the use or effectiveness of a Registration Statement as provided in Section 1(d), each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(f), such Holder shall promptly discontinue its disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement (other than offers or sales pursuant to a plan that is in effect and that complies with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act) until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(f). If so directed by the Company, each such Holder shall deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies, in such Holder’s possession of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event that the Company shall give any such notice, the period mentioned in Section 3(b), as applicable, shall be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when such Holder shall have received the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 3(f).

The Company may require each Holder of Registrable Securities as to which any registration is being effected to furnish the Company with such information regarding such Holder and pertinent to the disclosure requirements relating to the registration and the distribution of such securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing.

(b) The Company shall not, however, be required to pay for expenses of any Demand Registration begun pursuant to Section 1 or Shelf Underwritten Offering begun pursuant to Section 7, the request of which has been subsequently withdrawn by the Requesting Investor unless (i) the withdrawal is based upon (A) any fact, circumstance, event, change, effect or occurrence that, individually or in the aggregate with all other facts or circumstances, events, changes, effects or occurrences, has a material adverse effect on the Company or (B) material adverse information concerning the Company that the Company had not publicly disclosed at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to such registration request or of which the Company had not otherwise notified, in writing, the Requesting Investor at the time of such request, (ii) the Requesting Investor has not withdrawn two Demand Registrations of a type not covered by clauses (i)(A) or (i)(B) of this Section 4(b) or (iii) after the Requesting Investor’s withdrawal of two Demand Registrations where such withdrawal is not covered by clauses (i)(A) or (i)(B) of this Section 4(b), the Requesting Investor agrees to forfeit its right to one Demand Registration or Shelf Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section 1 or Section 7, as applicable, with respect to the limit set forth in Section 1(b).

(c) If the Requesting Investor and/or the Holders are required to pay Registration Expenses, such expenses shall be borne by the holders of the securities that would have been registered had the applicable registration request not been withdrawn, pro rata on the basis of the number of such shares held by them.

(b) In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder is participating, each such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits pertaining exclusively to such Holder as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers, each underwriter and any Person who is or might be deemed to be a controlling person of the Company or any of its subsidiaries within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each such underwriter against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, to which such Holder or any such director or officer, any such underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement or Prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or in any application, (ii) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is made in such Registration Statement, any such Prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any application, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information prepared and furnished to the Company by such Holder pertaining exclusively to such Holder expressly for use therein or (iii) any violation by the Holder of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act or any state securities laws applicable to the Holder and relating to action or inaction required of the Holder in connection with any such registration, and such Holder shall reimburse the Company and each such director, officer, underwriter and controlling Person for any legal or any other expenses actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, defending or settling any such loss, claim, liability, action or proceeding, provided that the obligation to indemnify and hold harmless shall be individual and several to each Holder and shall be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.

(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 and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’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, without the indemnified party’s prior consent, settle or compromise any action or claim or consent to the entry of any judgment unless such settlement or compromise includes as an unconditional term thereof the release of the indemnified party from all liability, which release shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. 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 any indemnified party 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 registration and sale of any securities by any Person entitled to any indemnification hereunder and the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

(e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relevant 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 a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount any Holder shall be obligated to contribute pursuant to this Section 5(e) shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds to such Holder of the Registrable Securities sold pursuant to the Registration Statement which gives rise to such obligation to contribute (less the aggregate amount of any damages which the Holder has otherwise been required to pay in respect of such loss, claim, damage, liability or action or any substantially similar loss, claim, damage, liability or action arising from the sale of such Registrable Securities). 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.

(f) To the extent that any of the Holders is, or would be expected to be, deemed to be an underwriter of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Commission comments or policies or any court of law or otherwise, the Company agrees that (i) the indemnification and contribution provisions contained in this Section 5 shall be applicable to the benefit of such Holder in its role as deemed underwriter in addition to its capacity as a Holder (so long as the amount for which any other Holder is or becomes responsible does not exceed the amount for which such Holder would be responsible if the Holder were not deemed to be an underwriter of Registrable Securities) and (ii) such Holder and its representatives shall be entitled to conduct the due diligence which would normally be conducted in connection with an offering of securities registered under the Securities Act, including receipt of customary opinions and comfort letters.

6. Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Person may participate in any registration hereunder that is underwritten unless such Person (i) agrees to sell the Registrable Securities or Other Securities it desires to have covered by the registration on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements in customary form approved by the Person or Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements (including, without limitation, pursuant to the terms of any over-allotment or “green shoe” option requested by the managing underwriter(s), provided that (A) no Holder shall be required to sell more than the number of Registrable Securities that such Holder has requested the Company to include in any registration) and (B) if any Holder disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company, the managing underwriter(s) and, in connection with an underwritten registration pursuant to Section 1, the Requesting Investor, (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements, provided that no such Person (other than the Company) shall be required to make any representations or warranties other than those related to title and ownership of, and power and authority to transfer, shares and as to the accuracy and completeness of statements made in a Registration Statement, Prospectus or other document in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information prepared and furnished to the Company or the managing underwriter(s) by such Person pertaining exclusively to such Holder and (iii) cooperates with the Company’s reasonable requests in connection with such registration or qualification (it being understood that the Company’s failure to perform its obligations hereunder, which failure is caused by such Holder’s failure to cooperate, shall not constitute a breach by the Company of this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Holder shall be required to agree to any indemnification obligations on the part of such Holder that are greater than its obligations pursuant to Section 5(b).

7. Shelf Take-Downs.

(a) At any time that a Shelf Registration Statement covering Registrable Securities is effective, if a Requesting Investor delivers a notice (a “Take-Down Notice”) to the Company stating that it intends to effect an underwritten offering of all or part of its or its Affiliates that are Investor Holders’ Registrable Securities, in each case included by it or them on the Shelf Registration Statement (a “Shelf Underwritten Offering”) the Company shall amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement or related Prospectus as may be necessary in order to enable such Registrable Securities to be distributed pursuant to the Shelf Underwritten Offering (taking into account the inclusion of Registrable Securities by any other Holders pursuant to Section 1(f)),provided, (i) that the Investors’ entitlement to deliver a Take-Down Notice shall be subject to the limitations on Demands set forth in Section 1(b), and (ii) the Investors may not deliver any Take-Down Notice within 30 days after the effective date of any Registration Statement of the Company hereunder.

(b) In connection with any Shelf Underwritten Offering:

(i) with respect to any Take-Down Notice that does not pertain to a Block Sale, within two calendar days of receipt of such Take-Down Notice, the Requesting Investor, as applicable, shall also deliver the Take-Down Notice to all other Holders included on such Shelf Registration Statement and permit each Holder to include its Registrable Securities included on the Shelf Registration Statement in the Shelf Underwritten Offering if such Holder notifies the Requesting Investor and the Company within five calendar days after delivery (including via e-mail, if available) of the Take-Down Notice to such Holder;

(ii) with respect to any Take-Down Notice pertaining to a Block Sale, within one Business Day of receipt of such Take-Down Notice, the Requesting Investor, as applicable, shall also deliver the Take-Down Notice to all other Holders included on such Shelf Registration Statement and permit each Holder to include its Registrable Securities included on the Shelf Registration Statement in the Shelf Underwritten Offering if such Holder notifies the Requesting Investor and the Company within one Business Day after delivery of the Take-Down Notice to such Holder; and

(iii) in the event that the managing underwriter advises the Company in its good faith opinion that marketing factors (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price) require a limitation on the number of shares which would otherwise be included in such take-down, the managing underwriter may limit the number of shares which would otherwise be included in such take-down offering in the same manner as is described in Section 1(f) with respect to a limitation of shares to be included in a registration.

(c) If, in connection with a Shelf Underwritten Offering, the managing underwriter(s) shall advise the Company and the Holders that, in its good faith opinion, it is of material importance to the success of such proposed offering to file a registration statement on Form S-1 (or any successor or similar registration statement) or to include in such registration statement information not required to be included in a Short-Form Registration, then the Company shall file a registration statement on Form S-1 or supplement the Short-Form Registration as reasonably requested by such managing underwriter(s).

8. Rule 144; Rule 144A. The Company covenants that it will timely file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder (or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A under the Securities Act or any similar rules or regulations hereafter adopted by the Commission), and it will take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (i) Rule 144 or Rule 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act, as such rules may be amended from time to time, or (ii) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements and, if not, the specifics thereof.

9. Holdback.

(b) In connection with any underwritten offering of Registrable Securities covered by a registration pursuant to Section 1, the Company agrees, upon the written request of the managing underwriter(s) of such offering, not to effect (other than pursuant to such registration or pursuant to a Special Registration) any public sale or distribution, or to file any Registration Statement (other than solely in connection with such registration or a Special Registration) covering any, of its equity securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the Holdback Period;provided, that a request under this Section 9(b) shall not be effective more than once in any twelve-month period.

A copy of each such amendment shall be sent to each Holder and shall be binding upon each party hereto;provided,further, that the failure to deliver a copy of such amendment shall not impair or affect the validity of such amendment.

(ii) The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provisions of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach, except as otherwise explicitly provided for in such waiver. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder, or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

(c)Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. In addition, the provisions of this Agreement which are for the benefit of Holders shall be for the benefit of and enforceable by any Permitted Affiliate Transferee and any Permitted Third Party Transferee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company may assign this Agreement in connection with a merger, reorganization or sale, transfer or contribution of all or substantially all of the assets or stock of the Company to any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates, and, upon the consummation of any such merger, reorganization, sale, transfer or contribution, such subsidiary or Affiliate shall automatically and without further action assume all of the obligations and succeed to all the rights of the Company under this Agreement.

(d)Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement or any application thereof shall be declared or held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part, whether generally or in any particular jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to cure such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions, both generally and in every other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

(e)Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

(f)Headings. The descriptive headings of the several sections in this Agreement are for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

(g)Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed within the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of law rules that would require or permit the application of the Laws of another jurisdiction.

(h)Consent to Jurisdiction. Each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of (i) the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County and (ii) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby (and agrees not to commence any such suit, action or other proceeding except in such courts). Each party further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such party’s respective address set forth or referred to in Section 13(k) shall be effective service of process for any such suit, action or other proceeding. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or other proceeding in (i) the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, and (ii) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, that any such suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(i)Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby. Each party (i) certifies and acknowledges that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, and (ii) acknowledges that it understands and has considered the implications of this wavier and makes this waiver voluntarily, and that it and the other parties have been induced to enter into the Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 13(i).

(j)Enforcement; Attorney’s Fees. Each party hereto acknowledges that money damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any of the covenants or agreements in this Agreement are not performed in accordance with its terms, and it is therefore agreed that in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right it may have, the non-breaching party will have the right to an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof, provided that no Holder will have any right to an injunction to prevent the filing or effectiveness of any Registration Statement of the Company. In any action or proceeding brought to enforce any provision of this Agreement, the successful party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees in addition to its costs and expenses and other available remedies.

(k)No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as set forth in Section 5, nothing in this Agreement shall confer any rights upon any Person other than the parties hereto and each such party’s respective heirs, successors and permitted assigns.

(l)Notices. All notices, requests, demands, waivers and other communications required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if (a) delivered personally, (b) mailed, certified or registered mail with postage prepaid, (c) sent by reputable overnight courier or (d) sent by fax (provided a confirmation copy is sent by one of the other methods set forth above), as follows (or to such other address as the party entitled to notice shall hereafter designate in accordance with the terms hereof):
